Hustle Humbly Podcast Alissa Jenkins & Katy Caldwell

Running a family business can be tricky, but this mother daughter duo is navigating co-owning a brokerage smoothly! In this episode we have a lovely chat with Laurie Beischel & Chelsea McDonnell about how they decided to open a brokerage together, how they divide up the tasks that come with managing 70+ agents, and how they do it all with a smile. Chelsea and Laurie share their strengths with us and how they use their specific skills and experience to create a successful brokerage built on great culture. This conversation is for the agents who work with family or have considered bringing family into their real estate business. It is practical and encouraging and is the proof of concept you may be looking for to start your own family business!

The stories in our own heads can truly get the best of us.  In this episode of “podcast therapy” we share our own personal struggles with the stories in our heads. Why did that buyer ghost us after seeing all those houses when we seemed to get along so well? What about the seller that said you were getting the listing only for you to discover the house hitting the market without YOU? We’ve all been there and the mental load that comes along with not knowing can be heavy. We are sharing with you our own tips and tricks for dealing with the unknown as well as being a listening ear when there really is nothing you can do. You know we love a mindset episode and this one was much needed and truly cathartic. Want to join us for more “podcast therapy”?

Sometimes being a homeowner is a struggle that we and our buyers aren’t quite prepared for. In this episode we are telling the stories of issues we’ve had to tackle as homeowners. Spending thousands on grass or drainage doesn’t exactly rank in the fun expenditures column, but a homeowner’s got to do what a homeowner’s got to do. Join us for a sometimes shocking conversation about floating pools, roots in the sewer, a 5 year old leak and even a house cut in half by a tree. How did we resolve these issues and when it’s all said and done was owning a home worth it? Listen in to find out and shoot us a message with your stories of hard homeownership.
