The founder of RE/MAX Results, the largest RE/MAX franchise in the country, is our guest today, and John Collopy never fails to entertain and inspire. 

In his book, The Reward of Knowing, John details a life of abuse, trouble, and addiction. And he dives deep into a few of those stories on today's episode. 

Stories that include leaving home as a teenager, and going to school while working a full time job. 

Stories that include beating up a police officer, hitch hiking to California, and living within the counter culture of the 70's. 

He then transitions into the moment his life started turning around and how he discovered a passion for real estate. A path leading him to where he is today, owner of the most successful RE/MAX franchise in the country. A franchise Will and Sarah love, and they explain why. 

And we can't forget about the roots of the Results Foundation, and the impact it is making on the Twin Cities. 

Get ready for an episode you won't be able to pause as we sit down with John Collopy.
