    122: Mastermind Takeaways: What We’re Actually Implementing

    Fresh off a mastermind event in Charlotte, Alyssa and I are sitting down to unpack what actually stuck—not just the notes we scribbled down, but the ideas that challenged us, stretched our thinking, and are already shaping how we show up in our businesses. In this episode, we’re revisiting our biggest takeaways, the mindset shifts that hit hardest, and the strategies we’re committed to implementing (not just talking about). We’ll share what resonated, what surprised us, and how being in the room with other driven agents reminded us why community, accountability, and continued growth matter so much in this industry. If you’ve ever left an event fired up but unsure how to turn inspiration into action, this one’s for you. Like what you heard?

    119: Burnout Is Not A Business Plan

    Somewhere along the way, real estate convinced us that exhaustion is a badge of honor. Spoiler alert — it’s not. Hustling yourself into the ground isn’t strategy, and burnout definitely isn’t a business plan. In this episode, we’re unpacking what burnout really looks like in our industry, why so many agents hit that wall, and how to break the cycle before it takes over your life. If you're tired, stretched thin, or just done pretending everything is fine, this episode is your permission slip to rebuild in a healthier, more sustainable way. Because you can be successful and well. Burnout doesn’t get to run your business anymore. Like what you heard?

    118: 2025 Wrap Up

    As we close out 2025, we’re taking a look back at the year that shaped us — the big wins, the unexpected plot twists, the growth moments, and the gratitude that carried us through. In this episode, we’re breaking down what worked in our business, what didn’t, and what we’re taking with us into 2026. From repeat clients and referrals to the messy middle of real estate life, we’re sharing honest numbers, real stories, and the behind-the-scenes perspective that doesn’t make it onto Instagram. Think of it as a coffee-chat recap — real, reflective, and full of the kind of transparency this industry needs more of. Cheers to the year that built us, and the one we’re walking into with clarity, confidence, and a little more wisdom. Like what you heard?
