Game Plans — where real estate agent Brooks Anderson and mortgage broker Steve Beskid break down what it actually takes to build a business, raise a family, and stay sane doing both. Every episode covers the real stuff: systems that save time, tech that actually works, deals that went sideways, and the unglamorous side of entrepreneurship nobody posts about. If you're building something while managing everything else, pull up a chair.

  • From $13K and Ramen to Top of the Table | Eddie Knezevich on Money, Fatherhood & the Chip That Won't Go Away
    Apr 27 2026

    Our first guest episode. Eddie Knezevich — President & CEO of NLF Partners, Million Dollar Roundtable Top of the Table producer, husband, and dad of three — sits down with Brooks and Steve to talk about what it really took to build something from nothing.

    Eddie started with $13,000, a broken-down Nissan, and a mold-infested basement. He's now running one of the most recognized advisory firms in the country, with 70% year-over-year growth and a team beneath him.

    In this conversation: the 3 financial mistakes most business owners make without realizing it, why cash is no longer king, the Five F's framework that simplified his entire life, what it's like to build a life your 8-year-old self would be proud of, the hard conversations about fatherhood and marriage, and how to stay hungry once you've reached a level of comfort.

    This one goes deep. Grab a coffee.

    Topics: entrepreneurship, financial planning, tax strategy, business ownership, fatherhood, work-life harmony, mindset, mentorship, smart leverage, growing a business.

  • Work-Life Balance Is a LIE. Try This Instead. | Game Plans Podcast
    Apr 6 2026

    Work-life balance is a myth — and chasing it is making you miserable. In this episode of Game Plans, Brooks Anderson and Steve Beskid break down why "balance" sets you up to fail and why work-life harmony is the real game-changer for busy professionals, parents, and entrepreneurs.

    We get into the real talk: how to stop feeling guilty about working when you're with your kids (and vice versa), why the hustle culture AND the anti-hustle culture both get it wrong, and the daily habits that actually help you show up fully in every area of your life.
