Freddie Silveria today is a successful benefit auctioneer and motivational speaker. Now rewind to his childhood. His life was forever changed when at nine years old his family was hit by a drunk driver. The crash would result in his mom Gina being bedridden for 17 years. That was followed by cancer that eventually took her life a few years ago. Freddie, who was his mom's caregiver learned a lot through his personal experience. And now that personal experience is his strength.

In today's episode of Experience the Buzz, Host Steve Buzzard spends time with Silveria to recount that experience and the impact it had on his life. "I was blown away by his story. It truly explains why Freddie is the amazing individual he is today. You can tell that he carries his mom's spirit with him in everything that he does." Our conversation hits FOUR areas:

Segment ONE 💥 kicks off with Freddie's emergence as a motivational speaker and later a benefit auctioneer. Silveria speaks about the impact of going to Auctioneering School in Iowa and even shares the "Betty Botter" chant with the audience. Just in case you were thinking about becoming an auctioneer.
Segment TWO 💥 spotlights Freddie's story in his words. Silveria speaks about his journey and his breaking points personally.
Segment THREE 💥 is all about the Pandemic Pivot in relation to auctioneering. While motivational speaking took a back seat, Freddie thrived in the virtual auction department. Freddie also speaks about the "Breaking Down the Walls" program.
Segment FOUR 💥 puts some finishing touches on auctioneering. Freddie delivers some BIG news regarding his next adventure. And we finish it off with RAPID FIRE!

Here are some of my favorite HIGHLIGHTS ...
▪️1. His story. Enough said. It's powerful.
▪️2. Still in awe that Freddie has done so well this fast. You can tell that he is motivated as an entrepreneur. I love his spirit.
▪️3. The Three F's (not what you are thinking) - comes your way at the end of the podcast.

Our Connection | I met Freddie in either 2014 or 2015 when I was the auctioneer for the Luxe for Life event. Freddie was there and volunteered to be my spotter during the LIVE AUCTION. We had a great conversation and continued to stay in contact over the years. And when we get together ... we are usually talking about Auctioneering. I now am asking him for advice.

ENJOY THE TALKING STORY! 🏝
