In this heartfelt episode of The Not So Black and White Real Estate Podcast, we sit down with East Coast powerhouse Mike Espiritu—Realtor, coach, and conduit of transformation—to unpack how empathy, storytelling, and language can redefine the client experience. From growing up with housing insecurity to becoming a top-producing agent and certified trainer under Phil M. Jones, Mike shares how he uses emotional intelligence, powerful questions, and authentic connections to not just sell homes—but to deeply impact lives.
