In this episode of Women with Vision, Tam Luc speaks with Claudia about her work as a Master Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert and the specialized training that helps her navigate emotionally difficult property sales. Claudia shares how listening and collaboration helped her close a sale in 45 days after a dispute had stretched across three years and three agents. She also opens up about rebuilding after her own divorce and learning to step away from work. A seven-day trip without phone or email access showed her that she could trust her support team and that her clients would respect boundaries when she communicated them. Together, Tam and Claudia explore building a reputation through genuine relationships, getting the right support, and creating a business that makes room for the life you want.

Claudia’s divorce real estate expertise gives clients and attorneys a specific reason to seek her out. • Listen for the concern beneath the conflict. Understanding what was blocking a sale helped Claudia move a long-running dispute toward resolution. • Collaboration matters.

    Episode 18:17: Rebuilding After Loss and Leading on Your Own Terms with Dr. Cynthia Glickman

    What happens when success becomes less about what you can accomplish yourself and more about what you help others achieve? In this episode of Women with Vision, Tam Luc sits down with Dr. Cynthia Glickman, a former math professor turned Las Vegas real estate broker. Cynthia shares how an unexpected bookstore discovery sparked a 26-year career, and how surviving a market crash and rebuilding after financial loss reshaped her approach to business and life. She discusses her move to Century 21, the value of a supportive professional network, and her growing focus on coaching agents rather than personally handling every transaction. Together, Tam and Cynthia explore delegation, creating systems, and building a business that can continue without its founder’s constant presence. It’s a conversation about staying committed to your vision, making room for joy, and building a legacy through the people you empower. Key Takeaways • Commit before you expand. Cynthia encourages mastering one business or skill before adding new ventures. • Focus on your strengths. Delegate detail-heavy tasks so you can spend more time on the work where you contribute most. • Build beyond your own availability. Coaching, repeatable processes, and standard operating procedures help others carry the business forward. • Choose a network that supports your growth. Cynthia shares how access to experienced peers and business consultants opened new possibilities for her brokerage. • Look for solutions that fit each client. Her approach to real estate combines creative problem-solving with an understanding that one strategy won’t suit everyone. • Learn from setbacks without letting them define your future. Financial loss and a difficult legal situation prompted Cynthia to rethink how she protected her business and pursued her goals. • Make room to enjoy the life you’re building. Ambition and long-term planning don’t have to postpone every opportunity for happiness. Connect with Dr. Cynthia Glickman:https://cynthiaglickmanrealtor.com

    Episode 18:15: You Can’t Carry It All: Growing a Business Without Losing Yourself with Erin Harrel

    Episode Summary You’ve built a successful business. Could it keep going if life suddenly needed you somewhere else? In this episode of Women With Vision, Tam Luc sits down with Erin Harrel, a Southwest Florida real estate team leader, former educator, and advocate for foster and displaced youth, to talk about building success that makes room for both your life and your purpose. Erin shares how her upbringing and experience fostering more than two dozen children inspired the foundation she started with business partner Jessica Nolan. Their mission supports older children and teens, with a long-term vision of creating homes for young people aging out of foster care. She also opens up about a serious health crisis that exposed gaps in her business. When she unexpectedly landed in the hospital, her partner could step in, but didn’t have the information needed to easily manage Erin’s deals. That experience changed how they shared information and built systems, helping them navigate another family emergency later. From hiring people with shared values to protecting family time and celebrating milestones, Erin offers an honest look at building a business that creates opportunity, supports others, and gives you space to enjoy what you’ve worked for. Key Takeaways Build systems that allow others to step in. Shared information and clear processes help your business continue when you need time away. Hire for values as well as skills. Erin prioritizes integrity, trust, kindness, and a commitment to giving back. Choose partners with complementary strengths. Erin’s big-picture thinking and Jessica’s attention to daily operations help them lead together. Protect your priorities with boundaries. Family time, exercise, and rest need deliberate space on your calendar. Pause to celebrate your progress. Reaching a goal deserves recognition before you move straight to the next one. Let your purpose shape your growth. For Erin, business success creates opportunities to support vulnerable young people and strengthen her community.

    Episode 18:14: The Drive to Succeed and the Challenge of Stepping Away with Clea Whitney

    What happens when the business that helped you survive becomes the center of your life? In this episode of Women With Vision, Tam Luc sits down with Southern Nevada real estate broker Clea Whitney for an honest conversation about financial independence, motherhood, and the challenge of moving beyond hustle. Clea shares how becoming a single mother of two young boys pushed her to pursue a career with greater earning potential. Her start in real estate was far from easy: seven months without a sale, retirement savings spent, and borrowing money for gas. Twenty years later, she has built her own brokerage, invested in commercial properties, and remained deeply committed to her hometown of Moapa Valley. But success brings another question: how do you make space for yourself when so many people depend on you? Clea reflects on the difficulty of taking vacations, her desire to spend more time with her parents, and her hopes of teaching others what she has learned. It’s a candid conversation about loving your work while learning to make room for the relationships, choices, and freedom you worked so hard to create. Key Takeaways Financial independence creates choices. Clea’s experience shaped her belief that women need the education and skills to support themselves when life changes. A difficult beginning doesn’t define your future. Seven months without a sale became the start of a lasting real estate career. Success can stay rooted in your values. Clea chose her small-town community over an opportunity to pursue luxury real estate in Las Vegas. Owning assets is part of her long-term plan. Her commercial properties and investments reflect her intention to build income beyond individual transactions. A capable team is a foundation for more freedom. Trusted agents can cover for her, but feeling comfortable stepping away remains a work in progress. Loving your business doesn’t remove the need for a life outside it. Clea’s next chapter includes making more time for loved ones and sharing her experience through teaching.

    Episode 18:13: From Corporate Career to Real Estate Leader: Building Wealth, Freedom, and Legacy with Jessica Duncan

    Episode Summary You’ve built a successful business. How do you make room for the life you want, too? In this episode of Women With Vision, host Tam Luc sits down with Jessica Duncan, a Pensacola real estate entrepreneur and founder of Duncan Collective, for an honest conversation about building wealth, growing with intention, and creating more freedom. Jessica shares how buying her first home at 19 sparked a passion for real estate that eventually led her to leave a corporate career. She reflects on helping clients build their financial futures, learning to protect her time, and building a team that allows her to step away without carrying every responsibility herself. She also opens up about what’s still a work in progress: updating business processes, documenting her team’s knowledge, and growing a brokerage that reflects her values. Her vision for the future includes coaching clients from a boat while traveling with her husband, a reminder that success can look like the life you choose. Key Takeaways Making a living and building wealth serve different purposes. Jessica’s early lessons in real estate shaped how she helps clients think about their financial futures. Build your business your way. Growth doesn’t have to follow someone else’s model. Define the team, clients, and direction that fit your vision. Your processes must grow with you. Keep procedures updated and documented so the business doesn’t depend on knowledge held by a few people. A strong team creates space for freedom. Sharing responsibility makes room for time away and the work you enjoy most. Be intentional about who you work with. Choose clients and team members who value your work and share your mission. Surround yourself with women who support you. Make space to celebrate wins, speak honestly about challenges, and encourage one another.
