Bestie, let's keep it all the way real—success in real estate is not just about cute listings and closing day selfies.

I'm about to say something most entrepreneurs won't admit out loud... I'm kinda lazy.

DESCRIPTION

Bestie, let's talk about staying top of mind—without being annoying.

Pop the confetti, Bestie—you're under contract!

Hey Besties!

Let's be real, Bestie—working with buyers can get chaotic real quick if you don't have a system in place. From that first "I'm ready to buy!" text to actually hitting the streets and showing homes, there are a lot of moving parts… and plenty of opportunities for things to fall through the cracks.

You just secured a listing—yay!

Feeling like the real estate world has lost its mind lately? You're not alone, Bestie. This market is testing everybody—but that doesn't mean you have to stay stuck in stress mode. In this episode, we're diving into how to lead with confidence, make bold decisions (even the hard ones), and serve your clients with clarity in the chaos. If you've been wondering how to stay grounded, shift your mindset, and actually thrive in the midst of it all, this one's for you.

Let's be real, Bestie—if you've ever said “I need more leads,” but your follow-up game is basically crickets... we need to talk.

Are you an introvert wondering how you can thrive in the real estate world without pretending to be someone you're not? This episode is for you, Bestie.

Ever feel like you're just winging it every day in your real estate biz?

Summer is here, bestie! ☀️

Whew, Bestie—real estate in 2025 is not for the faint of heart.

Okay, Bestie — let's get real today.

After nearly a decade in real estate, I've seen a lot—the highs, the lows, and sadly, the agents who peace out before they ever hit their stride. And while everyone's journey is different, there are a few things I see over and over again that quietly sabotage success. So in this episode, I'm calling it out: the habits, mindsets, and sneaky traps that might be holding you back too. If you're serious about building a business that lasts, you're going to want to hit play. Let's grow smarter (and stick around longer), Bestie.

Bestie, this isn't a script—it's real life.Ever wonder what really happens when real estate pros sit down to sharpen their skills? In this behind-the-scenes sneak peek

Bestie, let's talk numbers—the kind that feel so big, you're almost afraid to say them out loud.

Besties, this episode is really cool because I'm answering the exact questions that I know are swirling around in your head when you're new to real estate.

We've all been there, Bestie—that moment when your pipeline is drier than your scalp on wash day

Bestie, let's talk about real connection — the kind that brings your dream clients straight to your inbox (or listing appointment

Hey Bestie! If you're a newer agent and your pipeline's feeling a little too quiet, don't panic—this episode is your pep talk and game plan all in one.

When Dominique left the classroom and jumped headfirst into real estate, she did what a lot of us do—picked up the phone and started cold calling. And guess what? It worked… until the burnout hit.

“This is a great time to buy!” …but your buyers are giving you major side-eye

Okay Bestie, this one's a little personal...

Let's talk about those champagne taste, beer budget buyers

Bestie, you ever follow someone online and feel like y'all are already friends?

Bestie, let's be real—all money ain't good money! Just because someone wants you to list their home doesn't mean you should. In this market, where listings are sitting longer, the last thing you need is to be tied up with a difficult seller or an overpriced home that won't budge. In this episode, I'm breaking down how to spot the red flags before you sign that listing agreement and why saying no can actually protect your time, energy, and bank account. Because the right listings build your business—the wrong ones drain it!

It's not just what you say—it's how you say it. And if you've been in real estate for more than five minutes, you already know that communication can make or break a deal!

FSBOs (For Sale By Owners) get a bad rap, but what if I told you they could be your most profitable listings yet? Yep, you heard me right! The key is knowing how to approach them the right way—and that's exactly what we're diving into today. In this episode, I'm breaking down the FSBO mindset, what to say (and NOT say) at the appointment, and how to position yourself as the only agent they should trust with their home. If FSBOs have ever intimidated you, it's time to flip the script and turn them into a goldmine.

This listing should be under contract by now, but the agent on the other side totally dropped the ball.

Spring market is in full swing, and everyone keeps saying this is the busy season—but you're over there wondering, where are all the REAL buyers?!

So you're thinking about starting a real estate team?Bestie, I love that for you—but before you start picking a name and building the dream squad, we've gotta talk.

Spring has sprung, and so has the prime time to snag more listings!

It's been 90 days since I made the move to REAL Broker, and y'all already know—I'm gonna give you the REAL real about my experience!

Bestie, let's keep it real—one of the most foolish things you can do as a real estate agent is show homes to someone who isn't pre-approved (and don't even get me started on not having a buyer's rep!

Ever thought about what might change if you gave up alcohol? No, this isn't me telling you to put down the wine glass forever—I'm just sharing my personal journey after 500 days alcohol-free.

Bestie, let's talk about it—not every client is meant to make it to the closing table. And no, it's not always because of financing or cold feet… sometimes, you need to be the one to cut them loose. The truth is, you don't have to work with everyone, and you definitely don't have to put up with nonsense. In this episode, we're talking about the red flags that scream “RUN!” and how to confidently fire a client (yep, you can do that!). Because the beauty of this business? You get to choose who you work with!

Bestie, I see you putting in the work, but feeling like you're not there yet. Trust me, I get it. This business is more like a crockpot than a microwave—steady, slow, and full of flavor when done right. But how do you keep showing up when the results aren't instant? In this episode, I'm sharing how I protect my mindset, stay honest about my efforts, and keep doing the things that will pay off. Because consistency is the real key to long-term success!

Bestie, let's talk about that conversation—asking a seller to lower their price.
