    Feeling like you have to be “on” 24/7 to succeed in real estate? In this Slightly Under Asking episode, Kelly & Caitlin unpack hustle culture—what helps early on, what breaks you later—and the practical boundaries, systems, and leverage that actually scale your business without burning you out.

    In this episode:

    When hustle helps vs. when it hurts your real estate business

    Boundaries that stick (office hours, Do Not Disturb, response times)

    Setting client expectations (showing feedback, open houses, weekly seller updates)

    Choosing your niche/territory + smart referrals to protect your time

    Leverage 101: assistants, hand-offs, and preparing for your first hire (teaser for a tactical episode)

    Social media pressure & the “always busy” myth

    If you’re ready to replace chaos with clarity—and design a business you actually like—this one’s for you.
