    Shayla Gifford | Episode 20

    Todays guest is someone whose career speaks loudly, but whose perspective speaks even louder. Shayla Gifford has spent over 20 years in the mortgage industry. She's originated more than 1.5 billion dollars in volume, helped over 6,000 families achieve home ownership, and earned recognition as a top 1% originator and top women originator. She's built and lead teams over 100 professionals, founded Catalyst Coaching, and created systems designed not just for scaled production, but to support people. She's also a wife and a mother of two daughters and someone who has lived outside the typical American grind, including a season living in Europe that reshaped how she thinks about time, success, and intention. This conversation is not just about mortgages, but about leadership, life design, and building something sustainable.
