About The Book

The breakthrough you’re chasing isn’t about more hustle—it’s about finally finding balance that lasts.

Are you winning at work but losing at life?

Garrett Maroon was. From the outside, he had it all—a top-performing real estate team, industry accolades, and a calendar packed with closings. But behind the scenes? Eighty-hour weeks, mounting pressure, and burnout that could have cost him his marriage, health, and faith.

The Balanced Breakthrough is your invitation to rewrite the rules of success. In these pages, Garrett opens up about the toll of hustle culture and how he chose a different path—one that honors God, family, and a sustainable business model.

Inside, you'll discover:
  • How to create your own definition of success—one rooted in purpose, not pressure.
  • The PDA Formula: Build a Predictable, Dollar-productive, and Aligned business that serves your life.
  • Proven strategies to reclaim your time, protect your peace, and lead with integrity.
  • A roadmap to more income, greater impact, and lasting joy—without losing what matters most.

Whether you’re an ambitious entrepreneur, a weary professional, or a real estate agent chasing balance, this book will show you how to stop surviving and start thriving—in business and in life.

You don’t have to burn out to stand out.

You just need to redefine the win.

About The Author

Garrett’s real estate journey began with just forty names in his database. A decade later, he’s sold over 650 homes—without spending a dime on leads—all built on genuine relationships. As the co-founder of 2:10 Realty Group, a top 1 percent team in Southeast Virginia, Garrett leads with authenticity, expertise, and heart.

His mission extends beyond sales. Garrett cofounded the 2:10 Collective at eXp Realty, an organization equipping real estate agents to build big lives in a Biblical way. He also cofounded the Faithful Agent, a nonprofit for Christians in real estate seeking like-minded community and encouragement.

As host of the top-rated The Christian Agent Podcast, Garrett inspires listeners with weekly conversations on thriving in life and real estate. His signature framework, the Common Agent Scoreboard, led him to write The Balanced Breakthrough: Winning at Work Without Losing at Life—a practical guide designed to help agents achieve professional success while maintaining personal peace, purpose, and presence at home.

Garrett’s superpower? Helping agents make more money doing what they love, without sacrificing what matters most.

At home, Garrett is husband to Rachel and dad to four amazing kids—Haddie, Dylan, Ivy, and Zoe—plus their playful pup, Sampson. He’s actively involved in his church, fueled by dad jokes and coffee, and firmly believes that true success is rooted in relationships—at work, in faith, and with family.
