Do you choose a word of the year? I’ve done this as a guiding light and principal for myself for nearly a decade now. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast (and our last episode of 2024!), I’m sharing not only my 2025 word of the year, but also why choosing a word of the year can be impactful for you, why (and when) I started choosing a word of the year, a history of the words I’ve chosen, AND the brand new strategy I used this year to help me to identify and lean into my word. If you are a word of the year person, I think you will really love this episode. Listen in on your favorite podcast app, or by clicking the link below.

It’s that time of year … winter is coming, and not just the official first day of winter this weekend, but metaphorical winter in your business. Chances are you’ve not just taken your foot off the gas in your business this holiday season, but you’ve probably slammed on the brakes too. If you don’t have a plan to get back to it … or better yet, a plan that prevents you from being on the real estate roller coaster over and over again … it will be spring before your business gets back on track. And nobody can afford that. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast I’m talking through how to make it through winter, and how to get off the real estate roller coaster too.

There is more than one way to be successful in real estate. The traditional path that has been laid out for all of us … on a team, solo agent, team leader or broker … isn’t the only way. I am living proof of that having been or currently having a multitude of creative roles in the industry. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast, I have two things for you … First, a quick recap of Reinvention Roadmap, the 4th Annual Empowering Women in Real Estate® Conference. This year’s even was truly our best, and my absolute favorite. Second, I’m sharing with you a behind the scenes recording of my conference keynote presentation, Consistent Real Estate Success: Strategies for Every Stage. In this presentation I talk through the evolution of my real estate career, as well as the strategies that have helped me to be consistently successful at each stage. From new agent, to established agent, to starting over, to referral agent. Listen in on your favorite podcast app, or by clicking the link below!

No matter how long you have been in the real estate industry, chances are you have had to get creative a time or two. Whether it is getting creative to get a deal done, seeking out creative options with lenders or vendors to serve your clients, or just getting creative in your marketing or how you go about finding clients. What I think a lot of us are not creative in doing is in how we run our businesses. There are far more options and choices available to us than I think we realize. If I haven’t had the opportunity to experience some of these myself, I’d have no idea. Running a successful real estate business isn’t just based on selling houses. There’s property management, investing, flipping, the creator economy (getting paid to teach/share what you know), and so much more. Recently I had the opportunity to speak on a panel at D3, the annual conference for my local association, the Dulles Area Association of Realtors. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast I am sharing my thoughts as well as the recording of that presentation.

How do you know when to quit something? Whether it is your real estate career (spending more than you are making) or something else, I think we all hit this crossroads at one point or another in our lives. Maybe it’s not that you need to quit something, maybe you are just finished. As in, you have finished what you started. You have reached completion on whatever it is. I think that is a beautiful way to look at it. Whatever the case may be for you, or whatever you are debating right now, I think you will find today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast to be helpful.

This episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast is for you. And me. Part pep talk, part therapy session. Protecting your peace means getting clear on your priorities and what is most important to you, then applying boundaries and “fulfillment overlap” where you can. I’m sharing it all in today’s episode. You can listen in on your favorite podcast app, or by clicking the link below.

When is the last time you took a long, hard look at your database? Who’s in it? Do they deserve to be? Whose missing?

One of the most frequent questions I get is about my Daily Business Builders™ . My kinder, gentler form of prospecting. Why? Because we tend to overthink prospecting. How hard it should be. How long we should do it for. What it actually is. Also, because prospecting is critical to our real estate businesses. No prospecting, no business. It’s as simple as that. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast, I’m sharing all the details about my Daily Business Builders™ and how you can put them to work in your business.

When is the last time that you checked in with your goals? Remember those? Those things you set with excitement way back in January, or even at the end of last year. One of the best things I have ever done for my life and my business was to do consistent reviews each quarter. Reviewing my life, my business, my goals, my progress. On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast, I’m talking through my 3rd Quarter Review process. There are some questions I really want you to ask yourself about your life and your business, and I hope you will listen. Fourth quarter is just starting. 3 months is a LONG TIME. You can make a lot happen. Even if you aren’t on track for those goals you set … or maybe the just don’t resonate with you anymore, there are things you can do right now to get momentum happening before the end of the year. You’ll hear them all in this episode. Listen in on your favorite podcast app, or by clicking the link below.

Chances are you have worn a lot of hats over the years and had a lot of different jobs before you came to real estate … and I’d be willing to bet that there is a lot of experience there that helped to prepare you for your current career. In today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast, I’m sharing some of the things that make up my resume, and how they have supported my role in real estate. I’ve been a Project Manager for Clinical Trials, a Bank Teller, and EMT-Shock Trauma Technician, even worked at a daycare center. It was fun to look back and talk through each of those roles and experiences in this episode. Thank you to Inner Circle Member Kris Norwine for the suggestion!

At the beginning of my career, I couldn’t learn enough.
Then around maybe year 2-3, I found myself feeling too busy to get better. I could write a killer contract, won the majority of the listing appointments I went on and was closing 40-50 transactions per year … so what else could I possibly need to know?
See I thought training meant basics that I already knew.
I also thought I didn’t have time to learn anything new.
How wrong I was. It was only when I was introduced to higher quality, higher value training (initially through Brian Buffini’s courses!) that my eyes were opened … and my business too off for the better.
On today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast I’ll be sharing my favorite ways to learn (it doesn’t mean just sitting in a classroom or traveling to an event!) as well the tactical ways I find time to learn every single day.

This isn’t new though, it is always changing.
So is your life. With each phase and season and stage our needs tend to change … and the good news is that our real estate businesses can evolve with us.

There is such a push and so much pressure in our industry for numbers … Achieving a certain amount of sales, calling a certain number of people, closing a certain number of deals each year. Yes, all of these metrics are important, but what I think many of us forget is that this is a people business. We are serving other people, other human beings with a significant moment in their lives. My guest for today’s episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate® - The Podcast recognizes that perhaps more than anyone I know, and as a result has built a real estate business that meets all those metrics, and then some. As a brand new real estate agent Aaron Nichols closed $10M in sales volume in his first 10 months … not only a feat that is a challenge for most seasoned agents, but practically unheard of for a newbie. Listen in to our conversation as he shares his intentional efforts to serve and grow. I just know that you will walk away from this episode feeling not only inspired, but with a lot of actionable content as well.
