  • From Setbacks to Revelution: Pamela Bardhi’s Bold Rebuild Through Real Estate

    From Setbacks to Revelution: Pamela Bardhi’s Bold Rebuild Through Real Estate
    May 8 2025

    In this episode of The Underdog Podcast, Pamela Bardhi shares her powerful evolution from a pizza delivery driver and single mom to a thriving real estate investor, coach, and entrepreneur. Raised in an environment where higher education wasn’t a priority, Pam charted her own course with grit, self-education, and unshakable determination—balancing multiple jobs while raising her children and learning business fundamentals on her own.


    Her foray into real estate took root in the aftermath of the 2008 housing crash, following early experience in the mortgage industry. Despite facing obstacles and moments of doubt, Pam stayed the course—investing in her knowledge, forming strategic relationships, and taking bold, calculated risks. A standout moment in the episode is her work with Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)—compact secondary homes that serve as an answer to housing shortages and a pathway to long-term wealth and passive income.


    Pam also emphasizes the importance of financial independence, especially for women, and the power of self-reinvention. Now a mentor and coach, she inspires others to back themselves, break away from the expected, and leverage real estate as a gateway to freedom, purpose, and lasting success.


    Key Takeaways:

    • Resilience Leads to Breakthroughs: Life’s challenges don’t have to be roadblocks—they can be fuel for personal growth and transformation when met with determination.
    • Self-Education is Powerful: Success doesn’t require a traditional path. Learning through experience, mentorship, and personal development can be just as impactful as formal education.
    • Reinvention is Always Possible: Whether prompted by career shifts, life changes, or personal growth, it's never too late to redefine your path and pursue new opportunities.
    • Action Builds Confidence: You don’t have to wait until you feel fully prepared—taking small, bold steps forward is often what creates the confidence you’re looking for.
    • Lift as You Climb: True success includes helping others rise. Sharing knowledge, offering support, and empowering others creates a ripple effect of positive change.


    Pamela’s story shows how unwavering determination, self-belief, and a willingness to start from scratch can transform even the most difficult circumstances into a path of purpose and prosperity—proving that with resilience and the right mindset, anyone can rise, rebuild, and redefine what’s possible.

  • From Hearing "No" to Raising Millions: Dr. Jon Hogue on Revolutionizing Homeless Support Through North Star Revolution

    From Hearing "No" to Raising Millions: Dr. Jon Hogue on Revolutionizing Homeless Support Through North Star Revolution
    Mar 20 2025
    In this episode of The Underdog Podcast, Dr. Jon Hogue shares his inspiring journey from a small-town upbringing to creating lasting change for at-risk youth and homeless families. Growing up in a rural Massachusetts town with a population of just 450, he developed resilience and a deep sense of community—qualities that would later define his mission. With a background in psychology, he spent decades working in residential treatment facilities, mentoring troubled youth, and eventually stepping into nonprofit leadership at NorthStar Family Services.Dr. Hogue recounts the challenges of transforming North Star, inheriting a shelter in a dangerous neighborhood with little funding and limited resources. Refusing to accept the status quo, he launched an ambitious plan to secure a safe, dignified space for homeless families. With remarkable tenacity and faith, he convinced a benefactor to purchase and renovate a building, laying the foundation for a model shelter. But his vision extended beyond temporary housing—he set out to tackle the root cause of family homelessness by developing affordable housing, a seven-year endeavor that raised $9 million for 15 subsidized apartments despite constant skepticism.Throughout the interview, Dr. Hogue emphasizes the power of persistence, strategic thinking, and treating every family with dignity. His journey is a testament to the impact of unwavering determination, strong leadership, and a relentless commitment to providing not just shelter, but hope and a pathway to self-sufficiency.Key Takeaways:The Power of Persistence: When faced with obstacles, find a way to go "over it, around it, or through it" rather than giving up.Strategic Networking: Building relationships and coalitions is essential for accessing resources and creating sustainable change.Vision Beyond Limitations: Don't let current resources or experience define what's possible; start with what's needed and figure out the path.The Importance of Housing Security: Safe, stable housing is fundamental to human development and family well-being.Maintaining High Standards: Never settle for "better than nothing" when serving vulnerable populations.Jon's story demonstrates how one person's refusal to accept impossibility can create lasting solutions to complex social problems, showing that with enough determination and the right team, even the most daunting challenges can be overcome.Listen to this exciting episode.
