Struggling to find community, purpose, or long-term direction in a growing city like Indianapolis? Wondering if you should stay planted or move on—personally, professionally, or financially?

In this episode of The Roots Podcast, hosts Tyler Lingle and Max Moore sit down with Roots Realty Co. agent Ian DeFelice to talk about what it really means to plant roots in Indianapolis—through faith, relationships, real estate, and intentional living.

Ian shares why Indianapolis is one of the most underrated cities in the country, how community fuels both business and fulfillment, and why genuine curiosity—not networking tactics—is the key to meaningful relationships.

Whether you’re:
- A first-time homebuyer or renter considering buying
- A real estate agent wondering how to build a values-driven business
- Someone searching for deeper community and purpose
This episode will challenge the way you think about success, money, and where you choose to plant your life.

PLUS: Ian shares his personal journey from small-town Indiana to becoming a trusted first-time homebuyer agent—and why helping renters build a plan matters more than closing deals.
