I used to think working harder was the answer.In the early days of my real estate career, hustle did help—until it didn't. I was stuck on the hamster wheel: sacrificing weekends, missing family moments, riding the commission roller coaster, and feeling like my “business” was really just a demanding job I couldn't step away from.In this first episode of my brand-new 6-part series, The Agent CEO System: Build Your Empire, Live Your Legacy, I'm pulling back the curtain on:Why so many agents get stuck and the three biggest traps holding them backHow to recognize the commission roller coaster before it drains youThe truth about hustle addiction (and why it's disguised burnout)What “no leverage” really costs you—not just in business, but in lifeSmall but powerful action steps you can take this week to start breaking freeIf you've ever thought, “I got into real estate for the freedom, but I'm working more hours than ever,” this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Raquel Show, I'm getting real about the subtle, sneaky ways excuses keep us stuck—and how to break free from them for good.I'm sharing the mindset framework I've used with top entrepreneurs, real estate agents, and leaders to shift from “I'm not ready” to “I'm already there”. Because here's the truth—your results will never outperform your identity, and every excuse you're holding onto is just a brick in the wall between you and your next level.Things I Cover in This Episode:Why your brain works overtime to prove your beliefs true (and how to change it)The “Identity Stack” questions that can completely transform your outcomesMy 3 go-to tactics to stop the excuse cycle for goodHow to take one small action that will change your energy and results this weekThe truth about why vision boards alone won't get you thereBy the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to show up like the version of yourself who's already made it—and you'll have a challenge that could shift your momentum in just 7 days.If you're ready to stop negotiating with your excuses and start creating the future you've been dreaming about, hit follow so you never miss an episode.

You ever feel the flinch? That tightness in your chest… the nervous energy when you're on the edge of doing something big? I've felt it too—and in this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to say yes before you're ready.This isn't just another motivational chat. It's a truth bomb-filled conversation for the real estate agent, the entrepreneur, or the high-achiever who's tired of waiting for the "perfect" moment. Spoiler: it doesn't exist.In this episode, I get real about the fear I've faced (and still face), the risky yeses I've made—from scaling with zero blueprint, to investing in AI, to speaking in rooms that made me sweat—and why the flinch is actually proof that you're growing.

Let's be honest—boredom doesn't feel sexy or motivational… but it might just be the exact ingredient your future self is counting on. In today's episode, I'm coming to you straight from my car (yes, really!) after a StairMaster session that reminded me why I do what I do and why I used to resist this kind of work so hard. I'm talking all about how to embrace boredom without burnout, and how your ability to take consistent action might have less to do with willpower and more to do with your relationship with your three identities: your past self, your present self, and your future self. If you've ever thought “I'm just not that kind of person,” this episode is for you.   Resources:  Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/175 Get my Hormones Training: http://burnstressloseweight.com/hormones Check out my private podcast for lasting weight loss here: https://www.theunstoppablemombrain.com/bodyreset

You can't truly love yourself if you're lying to yourself.And you certainly can't find peace in a version of you that's not real.Because when you try to love a version of yourself that isn't true, it feels empty. It's like people-pleasing: if you sacrifice authenticity for approval, then who are they really approving of? Not the real you. And the same goes for self-approval. If we dress up a lie and call it self-love, we're building a facade that will inevitably crumble.In this episode, you will learn…Why women, in particular, tend to lie to themselves (even more than they lie to others)What all major religions and spiritual teachings say about truth-telling3 simple but profound ways to use honesty as a daily practice of loving yourselfWe'll also explore ideas from authors like bell hooks, George Saunders, Don Miguel Ruiz, and Tara Brach, whose teachings remind us that honesty is the foundation of love.If you've ever felt like self-love doesn't “work” for you, or that you're doing everything but still feel disconnected, this episode might reveal why and inspire you to honestly love yourself.Remember: telling the truth isn't about sharing every secret, it's about staying rooted in what's real. And what's real—no matter how messy—is worthy of love.Deepen your self-love journey with Mary's books:The Gift of Self-Love, an interactive workbook that will help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn to finally love yourself.100 Days of Self-Love, a guided journal with 100 prompts to help you calm self-criticism and learn to love who you are.Follow Mary on IG: @maryscupofteaa and @maryspodcastIf you're enjoying this self-love podcast, share it with the women in your life.

What if the people you choose to build with are the very reason you're stuck—or the secret to your next breakthrough?In this episode, I'm getting personal. I share what 20 years of marriage have taught me about commitment, consistency, and the power of aligned partnerships—and how those exact lessons apply to building a business that lasts. Spoiler alert: it's not the highlight reel that creates success, it's how you handle the messy, unseen moments when no one is watching.From navigating family drama on my anniversary (yes, that happened) to building multiple businesses while being a mom, wife, and coach—I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to play the long game in both life and entrepreneurship.

I had the hotels booked, flights locked in, the team prepped, and the agenda ready to roll. Everything was in motion for three back-to-back events—and then, I got sick.In this episode, I'm opening up about a hard leadership moment: the decision to postpone events I had poured months of energy into. It was uncomfortable. It was humbling. And it taught me one of the most powerful lessons I've learned in 20 years of business:The plan is just the roadmap—the vision is the destination. And when the plan no longer aligns, it's time to pivot.This episode is your permission slip to pivot without guilt, pause without shame, and protect your energy without apology.

This episode is real, raw, and a little personal. I wasn't planning to get sick, but life had other plans—and it reminded me of one powerful truth: if you can't step away from your business without everything crumbling, you don't have a business… you have a job.I want to let you in on what happened when I hit a wall—physically and mentally. I had three back-to-back events, coaching calls lined up, team responsibilities, and I was also celebrating my 20th wedding anniversary. And just like that, my body said "Not today."In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of what it really looks like to lead your business when you're not at 100%. I'll walk you through how I navigated being completely out of commission and still kept things running—without the burnout or guilt.

We'll talk about the real fears that keep you stuck, the doubt that slows you down, and the simple shifts that helped me (and my clients) free up 10+ hours a week.   Resources:  Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/173 Join us at The Unstoppable Retreat: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/retreat  Get my Hormones Training: http://burnstressloseweight.com/hormones Check out my private podcast for lasting weight loss here: https://www.theunstoppablemombrain.com/bodyreset

This episode comes straight from a moment of clarity — as I was packing for our family's beach house, something hit me. Not the house, not the milestone... but the decisions it took to get here.Truth is, the life and business you're dreaming of? It doesn't just show up one day after you hit the “right” number or build the perfect team. It's built long before you're ready, through bold moves and scary leaps.In this episode, I'm sharing a conversation I wish someone had with me earlier — about what it really takes to build a business that supports your life, instead of running it. And I break it down in a way that's simple, actionable, and real.

In this soulful episode of Radio Medium Laura Lee, intuitive medium Laura connects with Andrea from Virginia, sharing a powerful message from her biological mother in spirit. Once confined to a wheelchair, her mother encourages Andrea to stay active—not only physically but socially and emotionally. She urges Andrea to take the lead in her dating life, especially as a promising new connection begins to take shape. The spirit world acknowledges Andrea's deep desire for love, her cautious approach to online dating, and her habit of thoroughly researching potential matches. With the help of a new friend, Andrea is gently nudged to step out of her comfort zone—particularly for an upcoming concert, which could be a pivotal moment. Her mother's message is clear: meaningful relationships are often found in real life, beyond the apps.

Every single tall person known to existence has had a complicated relationship with their height. And speaking from my experience as a tall girly, I know I've had quite the tricky relationship with mine. There were times when I loved being tall. It was the greatest thing ever; it made me feel powerful and unique and beautiful even. And there were times when I was like why did my tall dad and above-average height mom have to make me tall again? From the self comparisons to my awkward tall teen phase to even the adults closest to me making me feel insecure about my height, it was a lot to deal with. Can any other tall girls relate? It's almost like do the cons outweigh the pros? When it comes to being a tall girl, is there more bad than good? Honestly, it gets to a point where you have to ask, do tall girls hate being tall? Okay, that was a bit extreme, but we're gonna answer this question and more in the episode, so make sure you tune in! Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/atallgirlspodcast Subscribe to A Tall Girl's Newsletter: https://atallgirlspodcast.beehiiv.com/subscribeLet's stay connected: https://beacons.ai/atallgirlspodcast Leave a review and let me know how tall you are: https://atallgirlspodcast.com/reviews

Ever feel like your business can't function without you? Like you are the engine keeping it alive?

What if the hustle that built your business is now the very thing holding you back?In today's episode of The Raquel Show, I'm getting real about the hidden truth behind scaling your real estate business (or any business): working 24/7 is not the goal. You didn't build this life to miss family dinners, answer emails at midnight, or feel guilty every time you take a vacation.After two decades of coaching hundreds of agents—solo agents, micro teams, and some of the biggest names in our industry—I've seen what works... and what keeps entrepreneurs stuck.If you're tired of chasing the next deal, managing chaos behind the scenes, or wondering why your business falls apart when you step away, this episode will show you a better way.I'm breaking down my Agent CEO Method—a powerful 4-part framework designed to help you scale smarter, reclaim your freedom, and build a life you actually enjoy.

If you're a tall girl reading this right now, I'm sure you've struggled with clothing at some point in your life. Heck, you're probably even struggling with clothing right now at this moment. Were you just online shopping? And trying to filter through them 32-inch inseam jeans? It's okay; you don't have to lie lol. It happens to the best of us. But yeah, clothing is probably the biggest tall girl problem….ever. There's no doubt about it. The pants, the skirts, the shoes, but there's one article of clothing that isn't spoken about enough, and that is: dresses.  Okay, we do speak about it, BUT it's not spoken about as much as pants. Don't come for me. I know we can at least agree on that. So today, we're going to be talking about why brands are falling short (literally lol) when it comes to dresses for the tall girlies and an amazing solution to this problem.

Between kids getting married, going off to volunteer for three weeks in Peru, and juggling multiple businesses all during the heat of summer, there's never a dull moment. Today, Jason and I finally got the chance to sit down, catch our breath, and reflect on everything that's happening in this season of life.

Our hope is that this episode gives you a real, honest glimpse into our lives.

In this special episode, I sit down with my little sister to reflect on our unforgettable trip to France. Though my self-esteem was tested, it was a journey that made me and my sister closer than ever. From the cobblestone streets of Paris to the Mediterranean breeze in Nice, we share how travel can shape your confidence, challenge your mindset, and create memories you'll never forget. You will hear about… the sister fights we had in France (and how we repaired)our best and worst moments from the trip, including my “haircut from hell” that totally tested my self-esteemwhat I learned about my perfectionism and personal growthmy sister's relationship with art, her supportive art teacher, and how creative expression has shaped her self-esteem and sense of identity how it feels to turn 17 and the pressure of feeling like you have to figure out who you're supposed to beThough this podcast is usually about self-love, body image, and confidence for women, I hope you enjoy this conversation with my sister. We learned so much about each other, the beauty and complexity of family, and how embracing imperfections can lead to genuine connection. Traveling together magnified our insecurities but also opened our hearts to more empathy and understanding—both for ourselves and for each other.Remember: you don't have to have everything perfectly planned out to be worthy of love, adventure, and self-compassion, and connection. Growth happens in the messy, unpolished moments, not just the picture-perfect ones. Your self-esteem might waver, and your confidence might crack, but you are enough exactly as you are.Mentioned In This Episode... Google map with all of our France recommendations

Let's dive into some unconscious ways us women tend to sabotage our self-love—especially in times of collective stress, societal pressure, and emotional overwhelm. In a world that constantly demands more from women—more productivity, more perfection, more performance—it's no wonder we struggle to stay connected to our own self-worth.If you've ever felt reactive, rushed, or stuck in regret, this conversation will give you the mindset shifts and grounding reminders you need to return to yourself.You will learn how to...Stay rooted in self-worth when the world feels like it's on fireRecognize the difference between reacting and respondingFree yourself from the cycles of rushing and regrettingThis self-love podcast episode is meant to help you reflect rather than react, slow down instead of rushing, and trust yourself instead of spiraling in regret.We often think of self-love as something fluffy or indulgent, but the truth is: it's crucial. It's the foundation for how we show up in the world, how we treat others, and how we protect our peace. As you'll hear in this episode, the more you cultivate self-love, the less reactive you become. The more grounded you are, the less likely you are to betray yourself in moments of stress or uncertainty.Remember: self-love isn't a luxury—it's the foundation of personal and collective healing.If you enjoyed this self-love podcast, share it with your friends to spread the gift of self-love!Deepen your self-love journey with Mary's books:*The Gift of Self-Love,* an interactive workbook that will help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn to finally love yourself.*100 Days of Self-Love,* a guided journal with 100 prompts to help you calm self-criticism and learn to love who you are.Follow Mary on IG: @maryscupofteaa and @maryspodcastMentioned In This Episode…Joy Sullivan's newsletter “Women at the Protest”Meditations for Mortals by Oliver BurkemanEp. 250 on Mary's Cup of Tea: Productivity Advice Meets Self-Compassion with Oliver Burkeman

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on something I've been seeing over and over again with top producers and high-performing entrepreneurs: burnout, chaos, and scaling with outdated strategies that no longer work.The truth? You don't need more tactics—you need alignment. You need to shift your identity.I'm sharing what it really takes to scale a profitable business in today's market without managing a massive team or burning out. If you've been grinding at a level you've already outgrown, this is your sign to stop playing small and start leading like the million-dollar version of you.

Have you ever looked around and thought, “Why am I not as far along as everyone else?” In this episode, I share why feeling behind might not mean you're falling short — it might just mean you're in the wrong room.I open up about a powerful moment at a high-level mastermind where, despite being surrounded by massive success, I felt completely misaligned. I was being pushed to scale faster, do more, go bigger — while silently navigating one of the most difficult seasons of my personal life. That experience reminded me that alignment > pressure, and success should support your life — not consume it.Inside this episode, I walk you through the 4-part framework I use with my clients when that “I'm behind” voice creeps in:Pause the Comparison LoopAudit the Voices Influencing YouRecenter Your Definition of GrowthFind or Create the Right RoomThis isn't just a pep talk — it's a mindset and business reset. Whether you're building a lean solo business or scaling a million-dollar team, growth must fit your season, your values, and your version of peace.

Sometimes life throws a curveball, and this week, that meant a surprise mom duty moment for me. But rather than skip a podcast episode (which I never do), I'm sharing a gem I've never released here before. This episode walks you through exactly how to evaluate your weight loss results like a rockstar, without drama, guilt, or throwing in the towel when the scale doesn't budge. If you've ever told yourself, “It's just not working” or spiraled into shame after a pound crept up, this episode is your antidote. I'm breaking down why overachievers tend to avoid evaluation, how to flip discouragement into data, and why this ONE weekly habit might be the most important meeting on your calendar.   Resources:  Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/168 Learn more: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/group  Get the Hormones Training: https://www.burnstressloseweight.com/hormones
