In this episode of Unlock Your Thrive, Cheryl McDonald and Jeannine Prombo sit down with top-producing real estate agent and Agent Leadership Council member Dave Vivoda for a conversation that blends business strategy, personal resilience, and the mindset required to grow a referral-driven career. Dave shares how he transitioned from a decade in professional golf to becoming a trusted real estate advisor with more than fifty million dollars in lifetime sales. He explains how the discipline of internal competition shaped his approach to business, helping him tune out industry noise and stay focused on authentic relationships, calm leadership, and continuous improvement.

Dave also opens up about the loss of his mother to early-onset Alzheimer’s and how that experience inspired him to organize a benefit concert that raised more than 50K for the Alzheimer’s Association. His story highlights the power of purpose-driven entrepreneurship and the importance of building long-term stability through real estate investment. Listeners walk away with insights on navigating today’s interest rate challenges, leading with honesty, and building a business rooted in trust rather than transactions.
