    How Prayer Changed My Business: Rob Stein on Faith in the Marketplace | Follower Of One

    Rob Stein grew up in a culturally Jewish home where God was rarely discussed. He built multiple businesses, competed as a professional bodybuilder, and leaned heavily on his own abilities. Then his wife started going to church, and everything shifted. In this episode, Rob shares how he went from mocking Easter services to getting baptized, selling a business on God's terms, and building a real estate training platform used by over 13,000 agents, all through prayer and relationships. Rob is one of North America's leading authorities in real estate education, mindset coach, former professional bodybuilder, husband, father, follower of Jesus Christ, and creator of Earth to Orbit. Leveraging his Masters in Education, he's spent the last 20 years working tirelessly to help others create successful businesses and lives for themselves. His expertise as an educator sets him apart from other coaches and mentors because he's able to explain the many complex aspects of building an incredible real estate business in a way that's easy to understand…and even fun. Rob's passion for bodybuilding and the lifestyle that goes with it has also been a major contributing factor in developing his teaching method. As a result, Rob has developed a turnkey online coaching system that has enabled agents nationwide to generate consistent, six-figure income. After deciding to create financial prosperity for himself, Rob transitioned from an underpaid, overworked middle school teacher to a top-producing agent and team leader, and became one of the Top 5% of agents nationwide. Over the course of his career, Rob has worked with over 400 organizations and spoken to over 25,000 people on mindset and improving performance. Today, he combines his passion for teaching with his mastery in real estate to help aspiring and experienced real estate agents achieve the financial and time freedom they deserve. Key Discussion Points Rob ended his business meetings with prayer and blessing for the first time, expecting to lose clients. His business grew instead, and new clients told him his faith was the reason they signed up. After spending $150,000 and six months failing to sell his real estate training course, Rob prayed and heard God say "relationships." The next day, a phone call led to the corporate partnership that became his entire business model. Rob grew up culturally Jewish with no relationship to God. His wife started attending church in Texas, and the visible change in her opened a door he never expected to walk through. A pastor told a room of business owners: "Ministry does not have to be your ministry." Rob learned that how you treat employees, how you forgive, and the ethics you hold in your workplace all communicate the gospel. Rob connects the delayed gratification of competitive natural bodybuilding to the daily discipline of obedience. Both require doing hard things now for results you won't see for a long time. Rob Stein's journey is a reminder that God works in the marketplace, not only in the church building. Whether you run a company or sit in a cubicle, prayer and obedience open doors that no marketing budget or business plan ever will. Learn more about Rob and connect with him through the links below.

    Rebuilding Your Life on a Biblical Foundation with Katie Anne | Follower Of One

    If you call yourself a Christian but struggle to articulate what you believe and why, your faith will feel shaky when life gets hard. Knowing who God is and who He says you are changes how you show up at work, in relationships, and through crisis. This episode walks through what it looks like to rebuild your identity on a biblical foundation after everything you believed gets turned upside down. Katie Anne Green is the founder of Katie Anne Coaching in Salt Lake City, Utah, where she coaches divorced Christian women rebuilding their lives after betrayal and loss. She left the Mormon church in late 2022 after a faith journey that began during her own divorce and is completing a dual degree in biblical theology and business leadership. Her experience navigating a complete identity shift makes her a grounded voice on what it means to truly know what you believe. Key Discussion Points Katie Anne shares how reading Christ's direct words in Matthew about marriage in heaven caused her to question Mormonism for the first time after a lifetime of belief. She explains why knowing what you believe is the most important of the five Follower of One pillars, and why you cannot follow someone you do not actually know. She describes the practical reality of building a relationship with God during her divorce, starting with five minutes of honest conversation when she had no one else to turn to. She breaks down how understanding your identity in Christ frees you from seeking validation from other people, and how that shows up in coaching, parenting, and daily relationships. She connects the story of Gideon's army of 300 to the idea that God equips you for what He calls you to, even when you feel unprepared.  Connect with Katie Anne Green TikTok: @coachkatieanne Website: https://www.coachkatieanne.com/call Connect With Follower Of One Join us over in our Online Community(http://community.followerofone.org) *Get social with us* https://www.facebook.com/followerofone  https://instagram.com/followerofone1 https://twitter.com/followerofone1  https://www.linkedin.com/company/follower-of-one  https://plinkhq.com/i/1482955686
