The path to success is rarely clear, direct, or easy, but it is always your own. Join conversations with some of the most successful people in real estate as they share what it actually took to get there.

At Rayse, we spend a lot of time talking about transparency, trust, and doing things the right way. But behind every transaction, every business, and every big decision… there’s a human story.

This isn’t a real estate podcast.

It’s a people-first show about the human experience, the paths we take, the challenges we don’t always talk about, and the moments that shape who we become.

Co-hosted by Christian Dwiggins, CEO of Rayse, and Tom Shively, Head of Engagement, Human After All features candid, fireside-style conversations with entrepreneurs, agents, creatives, and everyday people who are navigating life, building careers, and leaving their mark, in real estate and far beyond it.

We talk about:

  • Where people came from (and where they thought they were going)
  • The unexpected turns that changed everything
  • What success really looks like behind the scenes
  • How purpose, perseverance, and humanity show up in work, and in life

Some guests close big deals. Some build communities. Some are just honest about what it took to get here.

All of them are human after all.

We believe meaningful stories build trust. And trust lasts longer than any transaction. Human After All is about creating space for thoughtful conversations that reflect the values we care about at Rayse: transparency, integrity, and putting people first.

    The Woman Behind the Influence with Marki Lemons
    Feb 23 2026

    In this episode of Human After All, we sit down with Marki Lemons to explore the story behind the success.

    Before the stage. Before the influence. Before the recognition.

    We talk about the pillars that shaped her life, the challenges she had to overcome, and the mindset that helped her become who she is today.

    This is not about industry tactics. It is about the human journey.

    An honest, reflective conversation about growth, resilience, and the foundation behind a remarkable life.

  • The Long Way Back with Ricky Carruth

    The Long Way Back with Ricky Carruth
    Jan 14 2026

    In the very first episode of Human After All, we sit down with Ricky Carruth for a conversation that has nothing to do with tactics and everything to do with being human.

    Ricky shares the story behind the success people think they know. How he built his real estate business fast. How he made his first million. How he lost it all during the crash. And how he found himself working on an oil rig wondering what came next.

    This is not a highlight reel.

    It is a conversation about failure, humility, identity, and what happens when life pulls the rug out from under you. Ricky opens up about the moments that shaped him, the lessons he learned the hard way, and the mindset shifts that helped him rebuild not just his career, but himself.

    Human After All is a Rayse podcast about the stories behind the people shaping real estate. Less advice. More life.

    This is where it starts.

  • Welcome To Human After All

    Welcome To Human After All
    Jan 12 2026

    Rayse is launching a brand new podcast Wednesday, January 14, and it is unlike anything else in real estate.

    It is called Human After All, and it is not about strategies, scripts, or what agents should do next. This podcast is about people. It is about the real stories behind the voices that have shaped this industry.

    The first episode features Ricky Carruth, and it sets the tone for everything this show is about. You will hear about where he came from, what shaped him long before real estate, the moments that challenged him, and the experiences that changed his path.
