Thank you, Rachel, for helping me launch my career. Woohoo! I met Rachel several years ago post-college. I was networking my butt off and I don't even remember how, but I think I cold-LinkedIn messaged her. I agreed to meet up with her for a mentorship meet-and-greet coffee with her and other young women wanting to network. That morning, thank goodness was a good day for me. She saw my fire and really helped me land a big girl internship as a Copywriter.    Rachel continued to mentor me for a few years. What I really adore about Rachel is her mission is so clear—empowering women in ANY kind of business or venture. After every conversation, I left with high spirits and a fire under my butt.    Any women or anyone at all who wants to network with one of the big shots of Orange County, I urge you to connect with Rachel. Don't be shy!   Rachel is unstoppable.  Throughout Svoboda's extensive 20-year career in advertising, she has led prestigious advertising teams at Amusement Park (formerly DGWB), Phelps, and Saatchi & Saatchi, Los Angeles. She is currently CEO at Sunday Brunch Agency. Rachel is a single mother of two and lives in Huntington Beach.   Rachel is also the CEO and Founder of Lynxx bourbon; a bourbon that celebrates female empowerment. She noticed a huge gap in the whiskey market, and noticed that women turn to wine after a long day. Of course Rachel being Rachel, she wanted to change that.    This year, Rachel was elected as a Board of Director at Working Wardrobes and joined the Advisory Board for Girls Inc. Rachel recently launched a streaming video series called, The Brunch Club, where we raise a glass and champion female talent and leadership everywhere. Rachel was named Women of the year by The National Association of Professional Women.

To get a better understanding of what COVID 19 is and how this disease is affecting the whole world, we ask ourselves:

Here’s why we’re immensely grateful for your support this past year.   As we look back on 2020 and gaze ahead into 2021 with excitement, we recognize the unique challenges that this past year brought all of us. For some, 2020 was a great year, or perhaps a mediocre one; for others, it just felt like one wave after another kept crashing down on them. Through it all we were able to help 106 families make the right moves into their new homes. Making a move in the market isn’t something to be taken lightly—especially amid a pandemic—but they trusted us with one of the largest investments of their lives.  Our commitment is not only to provide a service, but an experience. Amazingly, 85% of those 106 families were referred to us by past clients or other referral partners; that’s something we’re incredibly grateful for as we reflect on 2020. Additionally, we were able to bring on two new agents, Carlos and Kino, to help them build their careers and create a lifestyle that truly satisfies them. We’ve also added Melissa, who has been absolutely instrumental in helping us market our listings to a wider audience.  Here’s what I’m most proud of, though: We donated 3% of our profits back to community causes (as we do every year) and were able to spotlight six awesome local restaurants in an effort to help drive new business their way. Beyond that, we had the privilege of partnering with phenomenal charities like Team Kids, an organization that empowers kids to change the world and learn important leadership skills. Thanks to your support, we were also able to donate to Working Wardrobes, Priceless Pets Rescue, I.C.A.R.E. Dog Rescue, and Girls Inc.  “Our commitment is not only to provide a service but an experience.” None of this would’ve been possible without your support. Our goal is to enrich the community we serve through our real estate business. On behalf of our entire team, I want to express a deep sense of gratitude for everything you’ve done to help us grow this past year. Together, we can make a larger impact on our community and change lives for the better.  I hope your 2021 starts off on a fantastic note. As always, we’re here to help with any real estate needs or questions you may have; just give us a call or send an email. Thank you again, and we look forward to hearing from you!

“Figure out what it is that you should be doing, that you know you’re not doing, that could make your professional or personal life just a little bit better. Find a way to make sure you do it.” Bestselling author and CEO of People G2 and ChrisPDyer.com, Chris Patrick Dyer started his company that performs pre-employment screenings, tenant screenings, and all things people related in 2001.

Culture has a profound impact on company performance, often there is a disconnect between what management thinks the culture is and how your people perceive the culture. Most business leaders don't understand it so they are disconnected from their people. What is your culture? Today's Quote: “There’s no magic formula for great company culture.
