A downpour, an empty tailgate—and one guest who still showed up. That tiny moment says everything about Euan Graham.
In this episode of 13 Minutes: Why Every Man Needs a Why, Dr. B digs into Euan’s immigrant story, work ethic, and “give first” philosophy that took him from a blow-up mattress and a beat-up Accord to a relationship-driven real estate career. Expect straight talk on resilience, refusing the victim mindset, and why honesty (even when it stings) is the highest form of care.

🔹 What You'll Learn:
Show up, always: Small acts compound into trust and opportunity.
Immigrant advantage: Gratitude + fresh perspective → problem solving & enterprise.
Mindset matters: Players ask “what now?”; victims ask “why me?”.
Give then get: Value-first, referral-based approach beats transactions.
Tell the hard truth: Saying (and hearing) difficult things is a service.
Resilience at home: Caring for family at a distance; grounded by responsibility.
Beyond the job title: Real estate as a vehicle for purpose—relationships & impact.
What’s next: Euan’s new podcast idea—distilling success playbooks from immigrants.
