Welcome back to The Social Edit! I’m your host, Sam Palmieri, and today we’re flipping the script on one of the most powerful mindset shifts I’ve ever come across: living in The Gain instead of The Gap — based on the bestselling book The Gap and The Gain by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy.
Whether you’re an agent struggling with comparison, feeling behind on your goals, or just questioning your progress, this episode is your permission slip to zoom out and actually see how far you’ve come.
Here’s what we’re diving into:
What it actually means to live in the Gap vs. the Gain
Real-life ways the Gap mindset is silently killing your confidence, content, and consistency
Why staying in the Gain changes your marketing, your energy, and your entire real estate business
5 practical tools to start tracking your wins (big and small)
The mindset mistake that leads to burnout, imposter syndrome, and agent resentment
Why posting from a place of service > chasing perfection
And how to reframe your "slow" seasons into your greatest growth
This episode is basically a pep talk wrapped in a marketing masterclass with a healthy dose of mindset truth bombs.
🎯 CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK:
Post a win — messy, small, or personal — and tag me @SamPalmieriii. Let’s celebrate your gain together.

This week on The Social Edit, we’re unpacking the biggest mindset lie that keeps realtors (and honestly, anyone building a brand) from showing up online: the belief that your life is too boring to be content. Spoiler alert — it’s not. In fact, your everyday moments are exactly what your audience wants to see.
I’ll walk you through:
The mindset block that keeps you from posting — and how to flip it.
Tangible examples of “boring” real estate moments that make incredible content.
A simple storytelling formula you can start using today.
How to stop comparing your Chapter 1 to someone else’s Chapter 30.
Real-life encouragement to share your story your way — no filters, no perfection.
Plus: I’m giving you plug-and-play content ideas, storytelling prompts, and a peek into my own journey of learning how to show up — even when I felt like I had nothing to say.
🎧 This one’s raw, honest, and packed with action steps to finally feel confident creating content that connects.
📲 Challenge of the Week: Post something that feels too small, too normal, or too boring — and tag me @SamPalmieriii so I can hype you up. Because showing up is the content.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Social Edit — the podcast for real estate agents who want to finally get marketing, build a brand that feels like them, and start showing up with confidence.
In this kickoff episode, I’m sharing my unfiltered story — how I went from being an NYPD cop to stumbling into marketing through property management, with zero formal training but a whole lot of curiosity, passion, and Google searches.
I talk about:
My backstory — and why nothing about it screams “marketing expert” (until it did)
How trying to become a fitness influencer and then a mom influencer led me to fall in love with content creation
What I’ve learned from teaching agents how to use marketing to grow their business
Why this podcast exists — and how it’s going to make marketing feel easier, more fun, and actually doable for you
If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not a marketing person” — I made this for you.
Why you don’t need a marketing degree to crush it online
How I self-taught everything I know and built my confidence from scratch
The real reason most agents avoid marketing — and how to shift that
What to expect from future episodes of The Social Edit

On this week's episode I give you the most honest episode yet. I hated being pregnant the entire 37 weeks. I felt bad for feeling like this because people always post about how they love it, their skin is glowing, and that they feel so blessed to be growing a miracle inside them. While yes this may be true for some pregnant women it's not true for all. I really wanted to make this episode to let people know that the expectations that social media puts out are not the end all be all. This is not how the majority of how women feel. This is a highlight reel and we need to remember that.
TW: depression, suicidal thoughts
Please call the National Suicide Hotline at 988 if you are suffering from any suicidal thoughts. You are not alone, you matter, and you make a difference in this world.
Sending all my love and positivity to those struggling with their mental health.
On this week's episode I talk about 9 different ways to realign with the best version of yourself.
Lately I have been feeling unmotivated, unhappy and just overall disappointed with my decisions. I wanted to get back to who I was when I was consistently hitting the gym, focusing on nourishing my body with the right food and focusing on what's best for me and my goals. I'm excited to be feeling motivated again and wanting to make better choices to not only better my physical body, but my professional goals as well as my mental health.

Christine was diagnosed with a rare form of Lupus that was eating away at her muscles. The doctors said if it wasn't for Christine's athletic build before the onset of the disease she would have died. From that point on Christine knew she had a dedicate her life to fitness. Her first thought was to serve her county in the United States Army, however, with her diagnosis that was no longer an option. When one of her brothers (she is a triplet) mentioned that the NYPD was opening up their test Christine hopped right on board and began the process of becoming a police officer.
On this episode Christine talks about her journey of being diagnosed with Lupus and how she decided to not let the diagnosis define her. She is living her life to the fullest and will be headed to Africa next month and hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro.

This week's episode we talk with Rev. Marlisa LaRiche about what it truly means to live a toxin-free lifestyle. At 25 years old, she had debilitating chronic pelvic pain. She couldn’t work and could barely get off the couch. Three surgeries in a year and a half and she knew there had to be other options. This was not the life she wanted to continue living.
Marlisa learned that it was a necessity to be very conscious on what we put in our body but also what we put on our body as our skin is the largest organ. She knew she wanted to make major lifestyle changes and the more she started researching the more she realized just how many toxins surrounded us in the home, from our food and water all the way to cleaning supplies and beauty products.

Evangeline Dardouni (called Vange by almost everyone) has been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2013, and a certified Vinyasa Yoga teacher since 2009. She grew up in Washington Heights, Manhattan in the 90's, and finished high school in North Jersey in 98’. She attended LIU Brooklyn for her Bachelors. She has lived in Staten Island since 2015 and more specifically on the South Shore since 2019.
In her mid 30's Vange discovered she was a Highly Sensitive Person ( look it up its a real thing!!) Her central nervous system reaches further and deeper than a typical nervous system. This neuro-divergence gives Evangeline a rare and richer experience of life and relationships. She has the ability to sense subtle shifts in her environment, and the moods and emotions of people and animals. It's this heightened sense of awareness that makes Evangeline an empathetic and affective Massage Therapist. Her massage style toes the line of physical and spiritual.
Vange is relentless in the pursuit of her truth, and seeks the most authentic expression of who she is in all she does.
When not massaging Evangeline can be found working out at Crossfit Thrive, reading in coffee shops, or in a park with her feet in the dirt. She loves the beach and mountains equally, and looks for magic everyday.
