Behind every sold sticker is a human being. 💙
Real estate looks exciting from the outside; the beautiful homes, celebrations, sold stickers, funny reels and happy clients.
What isn’t always visible are the long hours, seven day weeks, financial uncertainty, constant availability and emotional pressure that can come with the job.
Industry research suggests that 9 in 10 Australian real estate professionals experience high workplace stress, with 65% saying that stress has contributed to mental health challenges.
I absolutely love what I do, and I am so grateful for the opportunities this industry offers. But I also believe we need to be honest about the human side of our industry. Success shouldn’t require someone to silently struggle with their mental health and struggling doesn’t mean you aren’t capable, grateful or good at your job.
As most of you who have followed me for a while know, I’m a big advocate for Beyond Blue and Waves of Wellness. This year I’m supporting Beyond Blue again by swapping my heels for runners and pounding the pavement because conversations like this matter. Reaching out matters. Checking on the person who always appears to have everything handled matters. And I’m not just talking your Real Estate friends. Mental health doesn’t discriminate!
If you’re able to donate, my fundraising link is below 👇🏼 . If you can’t, sharing this post or genuinely checking in with someone is just as valuable. Let’s look beyond the listings, beyond the results, beyond the polished social-media moments and beyond the ‘I’ve always got it together’ persona. 💙
