About Aaron Hendon
People have the experience of their own agency.
This website is the digital home of Aaron Hendon — a best-selling real estate author, certified mindfulness instructor, international speaker, and managing broker of Christine & Company at eXp Realty. It brings together his mindfulness training programs, speaking engagements, writing, and real estate expertise into a single hub designed to help high-performing professionals transform stress into clarity and chaos into focus.
Built for real estate agents, sales teams, team leaders, broker-owners, and event planners, the site offers a clear path into Aaron's work — from free training resources and The Grateful Breath live cohort to the Mindful Sales Method, keynotes, workshops, and his book, How to Live a Grateful Life in a Fckd Up World. Whether you are an individual seeking sustainable performance or a leader looking to elevate your entire team, every offering is rooted in neuroscience-based attention training rather than motivational fluff.
Aaron has been a top-producing, award-winning agent since 2013 and has coached over 10,000 people across more than 30 years of transformational leadership and mindfulness instruction. His training programs have driven a 160% increase in sales, an 84% improvement in agent retention, and 56% growth in referrals. This site is built and maintained by Aaron and his team to share those tools with the wider world.
Born in New York, Aaron graduated from SUNY Purchase with a BFA in 1997. Discovering his fine art degree made him eligible to work in the food service industry anywhere in the country, he headed to NM to wait tables.
Soon he was baking for the restaurant, winning blue ribbons in the NM State Fair for his whole wheat challah and sourdough rye. Eventually, he opened Fred's Bread & Bagel, a real New York bagel shop in Albuquerque, selling it 9 years later as a concern selling over $1M and employing 40+.
Aaron's calling in life is "people have the experience of their own agency," and in the fulfillment of that he has been dedicated to helping others achieve their highest levels of performance since 1995. He's coached over 10,000 people, leading programs both online and in-person to rooms of over 200 participants.
He lives on a small island off the coast of Seattle with his brilliant wife, Kael, two cool cats, and his adoring (if not brilliant) Goldendoodle, Rozy.
