Investing. For some entrepreneurs, this can feel like a scary topic, and that's exactly what today's episode is here to address! I've often said that if there's an action or result you want to see in your business, you have to model it first. That's why I've always been the kind of business coach who continues to get coached and poured into by other successful entrepreneurs. I believe in the power of investing, not just financially, but personally and professionally. I want to encourage you to really lean into this episode and take in this freeing perspective on investing. See it in a new light, and allow the chains of anxiety and financial fear to be broken so you can step confidently into growth and abundance.

In this episode of The Raquel Show, I'm diving into one of the questions I get asked most often: “What's the best way to build a real estate business?” My honest answer? There isn't just one. The truth is, the best model is the one that matches your lifestyle, your vision, and your energy.Too many entrepreneurs get caught up chasing the “right way” or comparing themselves to others—when in reality, the beauty of real estate is that you get to design your business your way. In this conversation, I'm breaking down the most common models—from mega teams to solo CEO agents—and showing you the pros, cons, and the clarity questions you need to ask before you commit.I'll also walk you through:Why clarity is the first step before scalingThe 4 most common real estate business models (and how to know which fits you best)Tactical steps to reverse engineer your business from your lifestyleHow profit-first thinking, systems, and hiring decisions shape long-term successThe CEO shift every agent must make to create a business that truly works for them

There's scaling advice, and then there's feminist scaling advice. And here's the truth: these two things are actually quite different.   If you've ever received business advice that felt off, like it wasn't accounting for your full experience as a woman leader, there's a reason for that. In this week's episode, Eleanor is pulling back the curtain on why traditional scaling advice often falls short for women entrepreneurs, and what we really need to consider when building scalable businesses.   Listen in this week to learn why gender matters deeply in scaling advice. As someone who has mentored over 750 women leaders, Eleanor has seen firsthand how transformative the right kind of scaling advice can be. If you're ready to scale without sacrificing yourself in the process, this episode is for you.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://safimedia.co/WO70

In this episode, Christina opens up about what she's been seeing in her recent client sessions — and it all comes back to authenticity. She dives into how staying true to who you are isn't just a personal value, it's a business strategy.Christina shares how divine guidance shapes her approach to coaching and why clarity is the cornerstone of success. She breaks down what it really means to attract aligned clients and why it's not only okay — but essential — to accept that not everyone is meant to be your person.If you've ever struggled with people-pleasing, second-guessing your path, or trying to fit into someone else's version of success, this episode is your reminder: you get to choose authenticity, every single day.

What does it feel like to finally stop overworking, over-explaining, and over-proving—and instead lead from a place of grounded confidence? In this episode, Kris shows us what life and leadership look like when self-trust and self-worth are fully integrated. She shares the story of a client who went from being minimized by her partners to running a thriving $10M company while taking a guilt-free month away from her business. This transformation illustrates the power of moving beyond surface-level fixes to address the root issue: believing yourself and believing in yourself.

Jennifer's impressive career includes serving as a public sector executive, water utility CEO, and higher education leader, with over two decades of leadership shaping transformative projects in Milwaukee. She also leads Kitsune Capital, her personal investment entity, and was named a Woman of Influence by the Milwaukee Business Journal.

You already have the expertise. You already have the skills. The only thing holding you back from leadership is waiting for some arbitrary milestone, more followers, or another qualification to “prove” you're ready. In this final episode of the Known series on Big Money Strategies, we talk about becoming the expert you already are — and what shifts when you finally own that role. This is your confidence reset: from quietly doing great work in the background to stepping into thought leadership, claiming your space, and attracting opportunities that match your expertise. We'll explore how to move through imposter syndrome with an evidence-based self-audit, anchor into your power message, and create a vision big enough to carry you into the next 5 years. Because the truth is: you don't need more learning. You need to step up and lead.

All eyes are on you! No matter what industry you're in, there's no denying that visibility is key when it comes to growing and scaling your business. In today's episode, I talk about the importance of showing up and being seen in your business. There's real truth and stewardship in sharing your face, your beliefs, and your ideas so your potential customers can connect with you. I know it can feel scary, sometimes I still get nervous being in front of the camera. This momma has had four kids and is now 54 years old. But if I can do it, so can you!

Courage isn't about waiting until fear disappears—it's about moving forward while it's still there.

If you've ever found yourself waiting for the “perfect moment,” this episode is your reminder that courage compounds—and every bold move builds momentum.Things I Cover in This Episode:Why courage isn't about being fearless, but about trusting yourself.How to shift from “What if I fail?” to “What if I win?”The framework I use to lead with courage, strength, and grace.Real examples of betting on yourself before you're fully ready.How grace makes you magnetic as a leader and entrepreneur.My challenge for you: Where in your business do you need to stop waiting and finally bet on yourself?✨ If this episode resonates with you, share it with a friend who needs the reminder, subscribe so you never miss a moment, and let's keep playing bigger—together.---Thank you for joining me on this episode of The Raquel Show, and remember, keep pushing your limits to achieve your goals.For updates and collaborations or opportunities, go to www.LetsPlayBigger.comFind more resources on our websitehttps://raquelq.com/podcast/Follow Raquel on Raquel Quinet's socials:Instagram | YouTube | Facebook | LinkedInCheck Out Our2025 Play Bigger EventsApply to be in our Play Bigger MastermindGrow Your Real Estate Business with Real BrokerageJoin our Facebook Play Bigger Community

What if the straightest line to a bigger career is choosing the uncomfortable zones? On episode #141, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Tracy Nolan, Fortune 100 executive, transformation leader, and champion of women in leadership, to unpack the choices and mindsets that turned discomfort into momentum. From retail floors to the front lines of telecom, from global negotiations to a mission-driven role in healthcare, Tracy shows how to trust your instincts, claim your seat, and bring others with you.We dig into the moment a sponsor pushed her into a stretch role and why that single act of belief changed her trajectory. Tracy breaks down the difference between mentorship and sponsorship (and how to be a great mentee), shares a simple mental model for speaking up in intimidating rooms, and explains how demanding goals can coexist with deep empathy and active listening. Her stories, like giving a CEO-ready plan just ten days into a new job, reveal how confidence is built: not by waiting to be “A+ ready,” but by acting, learning, and iterating.Tracy also opens up about why healthcare fits her purpose, the women-first culture she's found at Humana, and the platform she's building, Lift as They Climb, to make sponsorship among women the norm, not the exception. We talk board pathways, continuous learning, and the skill set that will outlast every tool in an AI-driven economy: leading people through change with clarity, process, and heart.If boldness has been on your list, consider this your nudge.

Hit the Net, Climb Back Up: Embracing Life's Valleys as SpringboardsWhat if your biggest challenges were actually divine preparation for your greatest purpose? Join us as Robin Edgar, seasoned wealth strategist with 35+ years of experience, shares her remarkable journey from teenage motherhood to guiding clients through life-changing financial decisions.Robin introduces her powerful "trapeze analogy" that reframes how we view life's transitions. "We can be swinging comfortably on our trapeze, but real growth happens when we let go to catch the next bar," she explains with hard-earned wisdom. "The space between—catching air—that's where transformation happens." Her framework of living at the intersection of faith, family, and finance offers a refreshing holistic approach to decision-making that transcends typical financial advice.This conversation goes far beyond money matters. Robin reveals practical strategies for navigating major life decisions, including her two-step approach: creating a detailed pro/con list and asking "what's the worst that could happen?" She challenges listeners to examine who they're seeking advice from, noting that "don't take advice from people more messed up than you" and "if you're the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room."Perhaps most powerful is Robin's perspective on life's valleys. "Your muscles aren't built by swinging back and forth on the trapeze. They're built when you hit the net," she shares, explaining how her own challenging moments became the foundation of her strength. Her mantra to "begin with the end in mind" provides a clarifying lens for evaluating choices, whether in business, parenting, or personal growth.Ready to rethink how you approach transitions and build strategy around the people you surround yourself with?

Have you ever told yourself you're “burnt out,” but deep down, you're not sure if that's the real issue? In this episode of The Raquel Show, I open up about one of the biggest traps entrepreneurs, agents, and leaders fall into: mistaking being uninspired for actual burnout.I've been there—hitting the goals, closing the deals, and yet still feeling flat and wondering, is this it? And what I've learned is this: when we confuse uninspired with burnout, we start making the wrong moves. We step away from opportunities, think something is “wrong” with us, or even consider burning our business to the ground… when really, what we need is a spark.
