Faith over fame—one agent built her business on authenticity, service, and surrender AND YOU CAN TOO!

In this episode of The Faithful Agent podcast, Garrett Maroon sits down with Linda Bayliss-Spence, a real estate agent whose story is rooted in faith, generosity, and genuine connection. Linda shares her personal and professional journey, revealing how staying true to her values—rather than chasing trends or comparison—led to meaningful impact in her business and community. From creative marketing to divine appointments, Linda highlights the power of authenticity and reminds agents that faithfulness, not fame, is the real win.

2. Serve others without expecting anything in return.
3. Use creative marketing to authentically connect with your community.
4. View clients as divine appointments and trust God to open doors.
5. Give back generously to ministries and those in need.
6. Embrace your unique gifts and resist the temptation to compare.
7. Let your faith shape how you serve, market, and build relationships.
8. Steward your time, money, and influence with kingdom purpose.
