In this episode of Untidy, Matty and Hannah talk to the multi-award-winning singer, songwriter and musician, Mel Parsons. Mel has released six studio albums and is a full-time, self-employed, touring artist with her own production company. She is also a mother and stepmother to four young children alongside her partner, Josh. Mel discusses the tenacity it has taken to pursue her musical career, choosing to have a relationship with uncertainty rather than the safety net of a ‘Plan B', and how she honours both her passion for a creative career and being an engaged parent. She talks candidly about what she's had to confront and accept in herself along the way, how she can't handle 17 conversations at once, what self-care looks like, and why a balanced perspective on fish fingers and cheese on toast is essential for living within reason. Mel's soulful, indie-folk music reflects a life lived with bold authentic expression in every facet. She's witty, frank, and honest. This is a conversation that will validate and inspire!

Astonishing Rags to Riches Real Estate Success Stories

Who says midwifery and real estate have nothing in common? For Seattle-based broker Mel Parsons, her background and abilities as a midwife helped her carve out a niche for herself in the real estate industry. She’s now managing an incredible real estate team with a GCI of $865,000 in 2018!  She couldn’t even believe that only six years ago, she experienced collecting food stamps, babysitting other people’s kids during summer, and figuring out other resourceful ways to live out of very little money. When they lost their third baby, her pain and grief made her despise other women who successfully gave birth. But they were also struggling financially, so she evaluated herself and thought about what other things she could do with her capabilities. For someone who didn’t even have any value of homeownership back then and could hardly pay their rent, she tried her luck in real estate and took her licensing exam in 2015. From then on, she jumped in on every opportunity she could get to learn from the geniuses in the industry.  And with her genuine and nurturing personality, she’s continuously growing her business through providing a high-touch service with their clients. Join us as Mel gives a glimpse of her wonderful but also painful journey as a midwife, how she transitioned into real estate, and the great people she looks up to who help her pave the way to success, of which she is really proud of.    Mentions   Parsons Team Seattle - https://www.parsonsteamseattle.com/ Kelly Tadlock - https://kellytadlock.com/  Cheri Benjamin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cheri-benjamin-945bb8115 Club Wealth - https://clubwealth.com/  Lab Coat Agents - https://www.labcoatagents.com/ Misti Bruton - https://www.rags2richessuccessstories.com/podcasts/astonishing-rags-to-riches-episode-3-misti-bruton Keri Shull - https://kerishull.com/ Mike Cuevas, “Real Estate Marketing Dude” - https://www.realestatemarketingdude.com/mike-cuevas/  Brittiny Howard - https://www.rags2richessuccessstories.com/podcasts/astonishing-rags-to-riches-episode-5-brittiny-howard Ron Anderson - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronanderson27 Michael Hellickson, Club Wealth - https://clubwealth.com/michael-hellickson/ Ruth Krishnan - https://ruthkrishnan.com/about/  Long Doan - https://realtygroupmn.com/coon-rapids-team/long-doan-licensed-real-estate-agent    Tech Partners;    Ylopo - https://www.ylopo.com/ (Lead Gen, Lead Nurture, Lead Follow Up)   Show Sponsors;    Ylopo -  The Future of Real Estate  Tech - https://www.ylopo.com Lab Coat Agents - The  #1 Facebook Real Estate Group to learn how to grow your real estate business -  https://www.facebook.com/groups/labcoatagents/
