This week, we’re diving into the world of self-storage with our friend Bree Hartman. Bree is based in Sacramento and owns three single-family rental properties and 84,000 square feet of self-storage property! Bree is also the owner of Self Storage School. In this episode, we are busting self-storage myths, and how to systemize your self-storage investment properties so they can truly be passive income investments.
Bree is a vibrant source of joy and fun and has been a member of our CEO Bootcamp and has also attended one of our WIIRE retreats, so she truly knows our love language. We are so excited for you to get inspired by her story about how she has designed her dream life through real estate investing.
You can learn more about what Bree is up to by following her on Instagram, but if you listen to the episode all the way through, you’ll get her personal cell number, where you can reach out to her via text!
Thanks for tuning in, friends. We’ll catch you in the next episode!

Hello everyone, welcome back to another podcast episode! This week we are excited to welcome our friend, Kayla Pennington, an investor in the Louisville, Kentucky, and Nashville, Tennessee, markets. Kayla also attended one of our WIIRE retreats and joined us earlier in 2024 in CEO Bootcamp.
Kayla started in investing journey in 2022 and now has 6 doors after ditching her golden handcuffs with a multi-six-figure job in medical sales. She decided to pursue real estate investing and entrepreneurship and is now scaling her REI business like a true CEO. It wasn’t that she didn’t love her job, but she learned that she was outgrowing it and the company was heading in a different direction than what she wanted out of her own life. She made the decision to pivot and never looked back.
One lesson Kayla shares that we think will truly resonate with our audience is the importance of finding your tribe. Being an entrepreneur can be lonely. So find those who lift you up, drive you and keep you motivated to always stay moving forward.
Head on over to Instagram and see what Kayla is up to next.
