Many of us wake up one day and it hits us— we’re not living the life we dreamed of.


Maybe you can relate to some of the things we’ve felt.

‼️ You feel like there’s too much in the past to hit your true potential. Something will always hold you back.

‼️ You sometimes make measurable progress. Yet just when it seems you’re about to truly breakthrough and soar, you do something to self-sabotage and you can’t figure out why.

 ‼️ You’re either surrounded by the WRONG crowd or you don’t know the “right” people, and so it seems you’re being pushed down rather than being pulled up. You don’t blame them, but you DO sense that if you were surrounded by a different community of people things might change for the better.

 ‼️ You look at where your life began… and you trace the first few chapters… and you (rightly) admit that others got a head start. You’re not playing the “victim card,” you’re just acknowledging that some people are born & raised in unique circumstances that give them a “better” starting line (this is part of Shannon’s story).

‼️ You might even have the “right background” and a “good upbringing”— you were raised right, but busted it up with a few bad decisions and now feel “disqualified” from the life you once envisioned (Rob relates to this).

 ‼️ You don’t have access to correct training, you missed out on certain opportunities in the past, and you feel like there aren’t any more open doors for you. Opportunity “knocks,” but it’s always thumping on someone else’s door— not yours.

‼️ You’re willing to “do the work,” but you don’t know where to begin. If someone could just show you a step-by-step process to move from where you are to where you’re designed to be, you’d “do the time” and invest in your future (and in the future of your family).

If ANY of this resonates, welcome.

We'll equip you with the mindset, the motivation, and the map to move from where you are to where you’re designed to be.


We're Rob & Shannon


We were raised in two radically different ways— but found ourselves in the same place.

Shannon frequently moved from home to home, couch-surfed and lived in and abandoned building through several of her high school years, and dropped-out before she began her senior year when she found out she was pregnant.

She lived in a camping tent through much of the pregnancy, pushed harder into her addictions after birthing her son, and did several stints in rehabs and in jail.

Rob grew up “in the church.” His dad prayed hard and his mom used to invite homeless hoboes onto their front porch so she could talk to them about Jesus while she fed them.

His parents never divorced, and he knew what it was like to grow up with a stable family— one where he never guessed where the next meal was coming from or if there would be roof over his head.

But he still found himself strung out, in trouble with the law, and consistently exchanged meaningful progress for bad habits.

We met when a mutual friend suggested, “You need to meet. You’ll either save each other or, at least, neither one of my friends will die alone.”

The friend was right.

On both counts, almost.

When we met, we continued— full speed— into the destructive patterns we had picked up on our own. Yet now, we did it all together.

Together, we lived in borrowed apartments, the Target parking lot, and pay-by-the-week hotels. Sometimes, we even slept in different cells of nearby jails.

It was a long road— and a lot of ups and downs— but life changed. Slowly, but surely, things transformed… so much so that— when we look back— there’s no indication from the “former life” that it could ever become the life we now live.

We believe the same can be true for you, too— regardless of where you are on your journey to navigate towards—

⚜️ the life you’ve dreamed of

⚜️ the life God designed you to live

⚜️ the life you and your family deserve

The RISE UP resources are designed to provide you with some of the tools that helped us in our journey— as well as some of the tools we wish we had.

🧠 Mindsets to see things differently— to see opportunities and open doors where you’ve seen obstacles and brick walls

🧭 Maps— to give you a practical roadmap to make meaningful progress in your finances, your career, your faith, your family, your friendships, and more

⚙️ Motivation— to inspire you keep going (because most progress doesn’t come in “giant leaps” it arrives in small steps, consistently done well over time)

Best places to begin

Welcome to the wonderful world of Rise Up!


RISE UP is the outgrowth of the training we’ve developed for our two businesses.

1️⃣ 3D Properties

2️⃣ EXIT Realty Birmingham

Business #1 = 3D Properties

Rob has been renovated houses for years. Over a decade ago, he and a friend launched 3D Properties.

He’s done everything from “fix and flip” to “fix and hold for short-term rentals” (i.e., AirBNB) to “fix and flip and sell as bundles” (i.e., to investors in groups of 10 or more properties).

Today, he not only runs 3D properties, but after being part of over ONE THOUSAND successful transactions, he also coaches others how to build wealth through the Rise Up Renovation Empire process.

It wouldn’t happen without Shannon— she runs the business side of it all.

Business #2 = EXIT Realty Birmingham

Shannon originally got into real estate to help Rob find properties to renovate and then list them after the makeover.

It didn’t take her long, however, to realize that she not only loved “the business side” but that it could ALSO be a vehicle to serve others during a pivotal, important season of life.

Success in real estate led to awards, and that led to meeting other business leaders and brokers.

In time, EXIT Realty reached out to Rob & Shannon about opening EXIT Realty Birmingham. They use their branch as a hub to build a community of like-minded leaders.

We’re excited about the future of 3D Properties and Exit Realty Birmingham.

We’re equally excited about pulling our resources together in a unique way to create the RISE UP community. Whereas our content has previously existed in 1:1 meetings, informal conversations, and employee trainings, now it’s available for you…

… so you can take YOUR next best step...

... so you can level up from where you are to where you're designed to be, where you've dreamed of going, and what you deserve to become!

Whether you’re looking for—

⚜️ PROFITABLE PROJECTS— such as Rob’s Rise Up Renovation Empire training provides you, so you can begin building wealth through real estate

⚜️ PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT— such as joining the EXIT team or using Shannon’s worksheets, templates, and systems to enhance what you already to so you can work with more efficiency and consistent effectiveness

⚜️ PERSONAL GROWTH— such as the Rise Up mindset training…

Welcome.

We’re honored you’re here.

Get Started

We've outlined a 7-part path to navigate from where you are to where you're designed to be.

 

1. Start with YOU.

Most people just look at externals & circumstances when it comes time to change.

Think about it: people, places, and plans are all temporary. But you are the common factor in every experience you’ve ever had.

2. Look back AND live forward.

If you don’t heal the hurts of the past, you’ll continue living “out of” those hurts. Heal them, so you can live unhindered.

We say it like this: “Excuses ≠ Explanations. Your past doesn’t excuse you, but it does explain some things that can be helpful for you to know.

3. Link arms with the right people.

Healthy relationships with whole people are like rocket fuel!

You’ll get farther faster if you get the wrong people out of your inner circle and some of the right people in.

4. Learn from the leaders.

Proactively look for people who have ALREADY made it to where you want to be (never take advice from or emulate someone you wouldn’t “trade places” with in any given situation).

5. Do the work...

... because implementation is greater than information.

Or, to say it another way, “It’s not what you know… it’s what you DO with what you know that makes the biggest difference.”

6. Navigate, re-calibrate, keep going...

If you travel in the correct direction long enough, you’ll eventually arrive where you want to go. The trouble comes when we disconnect our “future self” from the actions our “current self” takes each day— and when we grow discouraged when progress seems slow.

7. Never quit. 

Run through the finish line.

Objects at rest tend to “wind down” and decline. So, when you achieve a dream, dare to dream again and rise even higher.

Affirm that you’ve “arrived” (you ARE ENOUGH) and, at the same time, you’re always arriving (there’s more great stuff to experience).

Let's Do This!

Go "Next Level" in Life!


1. Map it out


Use the Rise Up framework to define where you are, determine where you want to go, and detail the action steps to get there.

2. Move ahead


Make a little progress each day. Most of us underestimate the compounding effect of consistent movement in the same direction. 

3. Make adjustments


Rockets-- and people-- go off-course. No plan works perfectly. Keep moving, adjust as needed.

Your "best life" is here.


The life you’ve dreamed of— the life you deserve— is waiting.

You’ve likely postponed making a decision before and recognize that if you took action “back then” when you first thought about it, you might be in a different place now. Whereas you cannot go back and reclaim the lost it me, you CAN move forward from here.

And you can do so with people who not only have the map, they’ve walked the terrain. And will continue walking with you and a growing group of like-minded people in the Rise Up Community.

To be clear, we don’t “sell the dream.” The dream is up to you.

Yes, we’ll help you think bigger and act bolder. But, the internal work is up to you.

We “sell the map.” And we take the journey with you.

LET'S DO THIS!

Common questions


If we were sitting across the table from one another— at the coffee shop (perhaps your favorite) or grabbing an energy drink (Rob's morning routine)— you would ask me a few questions about what I do (and I would ask you a few back!).

Since we’re not face-to-face, let me guess as to what some of those would be…
