Episodes
  • Ep. 18 - Systems for Rookie Realtors (Ft. Sheena Gilreath w/ The Leverage Co.)
    Dec 18 2025

    If you’re a rookie realtor feeling overwhelmed, scattered, or like you’re constantly busy but not actually building momentum — this episode is a must-listen. “Systems” is a buzz word these days, but in this episode we’re breaking down what they really are.


    In this conversation, I chat with Sheena Gilreath from The Leverage Co., a systems expert who helps agents stop operating in chaos and start running their business like an actual business. We talk through which systems matter first, which ones you don’t need yet, and how to keep things simple so you can grow your business sustainably.


    This episode is especially for the agent who keeps hearing “you need systems” but has no idea where to start.

  • Ep. 17 - My End of Year Audit: 2026 Business Planning (What I'm ACTUALLY doing)
    Dec 4 2025

    In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what “business planning” or “business auditing” I’m ACTUALLY doing for the new year. This episode is meant to help you finish the year with clarity so you can sail into the new year running your business with confidence.


    Whether you’re a brand-new agent or you’ve been winging it longer than you’d like to admit, this episode gives you a practical and honest conversation for wrapping up your year strong — and setting yourself up to hit January already in motion.

  • Ep. 16 - A Letter to My Rookie Self
    Nov 20 2025

    In today’s cheesy but mini-episode, I’m reading a letter full of advice I wish I could give to my rookie self six years ago — the version of me who was brand new to real estate, had NO idea where to start, overwhelmed, and wondering if she had what it took.


    This episode is part mindset, part encouragement, and part reminder that every rookie agent is on a journey that’s so much bigger than they realize.


    As we start to reflect on this year and plan for the new year, let this be your sign to look back & be proud of how far you’ve come & excited about where you’re going.
