On today's episode of the agentXcel podcast we have Allie Pfannenstiel, an Arizona agent and investor who is starting the new year strong and sharing what it really looks like to build wealth while growing as a Realtor. We talk about seasonality, consistency, and the very real growing pains that show up when you level up into bigger meetings, new rooms, and higher expectations.

Allie shares her path from CrossFit coach to getting licensed with the original goal of learning how to buy real estate. She explains how wholesaling helped her create early income and confidence, then breaks down her first investment deal, a seller financed condo, and how that initial leap created long term momentum.

We also get practical about money. Allie walks through how she and her husband built 22 doors plus mobile homes using a value add approach, the books that shaped her financial mindset, and the courses she has taken to build discipline, peace, and clarity around money.

We close with why she joined eXp Realty, what has already shifted from being around high level agents, and how the Tuesday Zoom community is helping her sharpen database nurture, referrals, and client conversations.

On today's episode of the agentXcel podcast we have Taylor Tucker, a 24-year-old Realtor who just crossed her two-year mark and is already building real momentum by betting on herself, working hard, and showing up authentically online and in real life.

Taylor shares how she started on a team and built her initial pipeline through massive action, including 30 open houses in 30 days and 50 open houses in two months during the peak of summer. Those conversations turned into real transactions, including her first home sold from a neighbor who walked into an open house.

She explains why she left her team after a year to build her own brand, why social media mattered early on, and why a 50/50 split no longer made sense once she fully committed to her business.

Taylor breaks down how she grew a brand new real estate Instagram to 10,000 followers in one year by posting daily, staying consistent, and keeping her content entertaining instead of salesy. That consistency has led to clients who already trust her before the first conversation.

We also talk about batching content with a videographer, using social media reach as leverage with sellers, shifting messaging toward higher level clients, and her focus heading into 2026 on luxury listings, cold calling, and a disciplined 75 medium style reset. The core takeaway is simple. Confidence attracts, arrogance repels, and results come when you stop overthinking and just post.

On today's episode of the agentXcel podcast we have Lexy Komichak, and we get into what it really looks like to grow fast without your life getting heavier. Lexy shares what it meant to hit the eXp Arizona leaderboard, why accolades are fun but not the point, and how collaboration inside a real crew helps top agents level up without gatekeeping.

We talk about mindset in a "tough market," staying neutral in hard conversations, and why labeling everything as good or bad is what creates the stress. Lexy breaks down how she's selling most of her listings quickly by executing on the two things that matter most: price and presentation, including how she uses staging and pre-list prep to win on Zillow first and get more buyers through the door.

We also dig into negotiation without ego, how to handle low offers without emotion, and why some deals fall apart because agents make it personal. Lexy shares her business sources, how open houses have driven a huge portion of her production, and why she stays in her lane geographically while still serving clients with integrity. We close with the women's network she's building inside the agentXcel crew, creating a space for more voices at the table, and why leadership is simply creating what you wish existed.
