As we go along life and reach milestones, we may sometimes forget how significant it is to keep giving back to our community. In this episode, Theresa Ward, real estate broker and entrepreneur, joins us to share how she got into impact investing. Real estate investing is not only a tool to build wealth, but it can also initiate genuine impact if we concentrate our efforts on bringing social good. She shares her advice on leveraging real estate investing to pay forward to people in her community. If you want to know how to create a social impact as a real estate investor, then this episode is for you! Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: Create social impact and earn profit through impact investing. Learn the value of team effort in managing a business. How remaining humble can compound your success and returns. Do not be afraid to ask questions. Use real estate to effect genuine change for yourself and others. Episode Highlights: [12:08] Impact Investing Impact investing is a financial strategy used to gain financial returns while creating social impact. Theresa is currently raising an impact fund, which will be used to purchase and renovate properties with the goal of effecting positive change in her local community. [19:14] Team Effort Theresa is currently managing more than 100 property flips and is still in the process of purchasing more. Team effort made this milestone possible. [21:48] The Benefits of Seeking Help from Others Be humble. It's okay not to know about everything. What matters is that we know who to ask or where to get the answers to our questions. Most people are scared to ask questions for fear of looking stupid or having negative consequences. Instead of figuring everything out on our own, reach out to talented people and create relationships with people who know what they're doing. By asking for guidance or advice, you can fast forward your success. [25:01] Theresa's End Goal Real estate is an avenue to fulfill any kind of dream in life. Theresa has a dream of improving education in her local community by opening a charter high school by 2030. She's making her dreams a reality through real estate and building relationships with people in the public and private sectors to help with youth access to resources and networks. [26:11] Social Impact As years pass into building a business, we can forget the bigger picture of what we're doing. Wanting to be wealthier or work less are valid aspirations. But at the end of the day, we want to create a true social impact on our surroundings. We can affect genuine change using real estate. Notable Quote: [12:10] “Impact investing is really just investing money and getting a financial return, but you're also doing social good.” [21:48] “Be humble and say, ‘Hey, I don't know how to figure this out. I don't know everything. But I know who to ask.'” [25:09] “So, real estate, I believe it's an avenue to fulfill any dream in life.” Resources Mentioned: Good to Great by Jim Collins The Hedgehog Concept by Jim Collins New Local Realty Theresa Ward: LinkedIn @pghhomegirl @newlocalrealty]

“[Measuring productivity] is way more qualitative than quantitative in the age of knowledge workers.” Productivity means something different to all of us. It’s dependent on the work we’re doing, the frame of mind we’re in, where we are, and so many other factors. This personal element to productivity is the first thing we dive into with productivity consultant Theresa Ward. Theresa speaks from her own experience, her well-read knowledge base on the topic, and her work at her consultancy, The Fiery Feather, where she helps clients with process, productivity and team culture. The interview happened to align with World Productivity Day 2020 (which falls during the global coronavirus pandemic this year). Parts of the discussion are timely—like how we’re staying productive during current global events—but the overarching advice is evergreen, and touches on the following topics: Finding when you are most productive What is deep work? How can you approach deep work to be more productive? Tips to cut distractions and stay focused Finding motivation to get work done How stress impacts work Theresa mentions a handful of great resources in the episode: When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing by Daniel Pink Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating by Brian Tracy Principles: Life and Work by Ray Dalio Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in a Distracted World by Cal Newport The Pomodoro Technique: The Acclaimed Time-Management System That Has Transformed How We Work by Francesco Cirillo Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity by David Allen The Upside of Stress: Why Stress Is Good for You, and How to Get Good at It by Kelly McGonigal

We’ve all had a time or two (... or three…) where we’ve shared a secret that wasn’t ours and it comes back to his us square in the face. Sometimes, before you even think about it, you’ve let something slip out of your mouth and immediately cringe - just wishing you could jump into a 15-second time machine so you can pull those words back into your mouth where they belong. We’ve all been on the other side of it, too - where our trust in someone else has been eroded because of their inability to keep our secrets. You’d think we would learn this lesson early on and just mind our own business. Why is it so easy and so tempting to share secrets? This week on Where There’s Smoke, we hear from a couple new voices! Kristen and Theresa are going to share a few of their own stories, offer a little research, and lean on some of Brene Brown’s teachings to help all of us dig around into our secrets and stories.

After meeting up in Kansas City and Brett's birthday week, Brett and Nick talk about all of the little things that are about to happen in the next few weeks. Last week, Nick and Brett asked their listeners for help promoting the show ("Who wants on the bus?"). This week, they chat with Theresa Ward about how to structure this next step of organization and productivity. You may remember her as "Nick's Future Best Friend". As you will hear, that is sounding more and more likely. * * * If you have any creative or organization skills and you want to help us on this journey, please email us at connect@wheretheressmoke.co.
