In this extraordinary and heartwarming episode, we invite you to join us as we sit down with the renowned actor, Nicholas Gonzalez. But this is no ordinary interview; it's a heartfelt conversation between old friends who have known each other since childhood. Together, we trace our journey from the "innocence" of youth to the glamour of Hollywood.

Nicholas Gonzalez, a beloved figure in the world of entertainment, opened up about his experiences in the industry, his dreams, and the path that led Nicholas to become a celebrated actor.

Bio:
Nicholas Edward Gonzalez is an American actor. He is best known for playing the roles of Alex Santiago on the Showtime television series Resurrection Blvd. and Dr. Neil Melendez on the ABC television series The Good Doctor. Born in San Antonio, Texas, Gonzalez is conversant in Spanish, having lived in a bilingual household.

He attended Central Catholic High School in San Antonio, where he was an accomplished cross-country and track runner, winning the Texas State Championship in the mile and two-mile. After graduating in 1994 and turning down a presidential appointment to West Point, Gonzalez pursued an English degree at Stanford University in California. He spent two terms at Oxford University in England.

The following summer, he returned to Europe on a research grant where he studied at Oxford and Trinity College, Dublin to complete his thesis on James Joyce's Ulysses. While at Stanford he had chanced on acting after taking an improvisational theatre elective and began taking part in student theater. He was approached to do a one-man theater piece called Gas by María Irene Fornés.

Alma Martinez, an actress and Stanford professor, encouraged him to become a professional actor. Upon graduating from Stanford in 1998 Gonzalez decided to pursue acting and, with Martinez's help, connected with the theatrical movement in San Francisco. He was once encouraged to use his middle name Edward to conceal his ethnicity and go by "Nicholas Edward" but declined to do so.

Opening Quote: "... Shut the noise. Make sure you're doing something for yourself as far as personal development. You know, you're pouring into yourself because you're constantly pouring onto others. But if you're not fueling that cup, filling it up every day, you're running on empty and you can't give anything else out after that. So whether it's affirmations, personal development, reading something, having a coach, you know, you need to be able to do that and keep showing up for yourself..."        - Maritza Cortazar

And so if I can go out there and deal some hope to people and you'll be a dope healer, like then I'm gonna end this world and people are gonna come to my funeral or people are gonna say something about me and it's not gonna involve Sean being a great mortgage guy..."                -  Shawn Kaplan

Opening Quote: "...Comes through with a different attitude and it's no longer the attitude that I can't fail. The attitude now is I am going to fail because it's a business that we don't control those markets, we don't control inventory, we don't control interest rates. We're all selling a product that's very similar. Right. So how do you separate yourself from the masses? and the lesson that I learned is just to keep going..."

Opening Quote: "...when I was working at the financial institution, I eventually got my MLO license there and then I started learning about mortgage loans and it wasn't until then, years after leaving the Army that I finally learned how to use my VA loan for working, and as soon as I started learning all this stuff, I was like,  hold on, why don't they have classes on this? Like if on base or like, why did I learn all the, all these other things? I've never even knew that I could do this and then I ended up buying my first house like a month after learning because I knew how."                  - Reese Laufasa

Opening Quote: "...Take it as a learning lesson so that you never do it again, because these shifts that we're having in the market are not a matter of if they happen. It's always a matter of when they come. They're cyclical, things go up, and things go down. That's just the way economies work. So live within your means next time around for sure. If you already were, then good job because you obviously learned something or somebody taught it to you and just focus on making yourself better, hone your craft, get better at your message, figure out what value it is you bring your own respective markets and focus on putting out that message. The deals will come. We're not that far away from another little shift in our favor whether it's to lower rates or a little bit more inventory, things will move."                                  - Arjun Dhingra

What does breakthrough mean and why am I changing the name?

Well, the reason is a breakthrough is about finding your voice and building confidence, and believing in yourself to take your business and take yourself to the next level. And I want to share with you stories from remarkable people who have broken through and have taken it to the next level. But I also want to emphasize people who are in a business that are diverse and people in business who have been through severe adverse situations in life.

OPENING QUOTE:

"To trust in you. That's where the business comes in so much easier than when they don't trust. They will trust you more than their lender. For some reason, they went with their lender, but that trust isn't there still, because the person knows this person is making a commission from me. That's why they're answering my call. Minh is answering my messages and he's not getting paid from me. Okay. I want Minh to make commission then."

 - Minh Nguyen

GUEST BIO:

"Minh has been in the mortgage industry since 2003, he has had many good days, as well as, many bad days. He has won and has lost. But year after year, he has learned how to minimize failure and maximize his success. His goal for creating this page is to share some of that knowledge with you. To help educate, empower, and inform you on how mortgages work and how to survive and thrive in the mortgage industry, so you can build a successful career as well. The idea of What's A Mortgage started back in 2017 when a consumer asked me, "what is a mortgage?" I immediately realized there was such a lack of information and education regarding the home buying process. This inspired me to solve that problem by creating a platform where I can use my experience to train, inform, and educate consumers like YOU!"

OPENING QUOTE:

"As a woman in the mortgage, do you feel that you had a harder time climbing to get to where you are today versus if you were a man in the business?

You know, I never thought about it that way. I just didn't you know, I had an agenda. I was there to serve. I got excited and to lead people, to bring them into my world so we could serve in a greater capacity. But certainly, along the way, those little moments of being a woman, being a young woman in this industry that was fairly male-dominated and still is today from a leadership standpoint. And there were certain situations where, you know, there was harassment and, you know, there were things that happened, you know, that that would come up. And I would be like, that's what that's like. I don't know, my brain doesn't even go there. So I had a choice. And I think everybody has a choice no matter what that moment is..."

GUEST BIO:

Founder of the project Sunshine Warrior! (SUNSHINE WARRIOR is a community that comes together to share stories, lift others up, and inspire and give hope on both sunny days and life’s storms. The concept of SUNSHINE WARRIOR came to mind, when Kelly Zitlow, the founder of this group, was with her mother, Candy, as she shared she had stage 4 cancer. “While I fell apart when I heard the news, I couldn’t believe the grace, strength, and contagious, reassuring smile my mom had in such a dark moment. Who does that? Sunshine Warriors.”)

OPENING QUOTE:

"Do you believe we've been in a race for the last 2 to 3 years? Yes. Yes. So we've been run and run and run and run. I look at my right, I see competitors left. I see competitors ahead of me, a few of them behind me. A few of them, well, they stopped running. What kind of race would you rather be in? One where everyone's running fast or one where your competitor stopped running? So now is the time to run. And that's where you gain ground, take market share."
