I’ve spent over 20 years in the real estate industry.
When I started, it wasn’t about building a career. It was about keeping a roof over my son Shade’s head. He was only a few months old when I put him into daycare so I could work full time.
It’s been one wild ride.
Over the years I’ve built experience across residential property management, executive rentals, commercial leasing and the art of selling. Getting here wasn’t easy. There were setbacks, disappointments and plenty of people who doubted me.
From 2020 to 2023 was the lowest point of my career. I ended up with major burnout / chronic fatigue and trust me that s**t is real. The external noise was loud, but I kept going.
Today, I’m approaching three years in my own business. I’ve employed my first full time Executive Assistant and I’m already planning for a third team member.
I started with one dream. To build a refined property business where quality always comes before quantity and every client receives the service they deserve. 💝 Oh and to add to the sunshine my son is now a fully qualified electrician, he’s a winner like his Mum. 💝 That lad has watched me rise and fall and rise again! Important life lessons I say.
I still wake up every day loving what I do.
Keep showing up. Keep doing the work. Stay true to your values. The right people will always find you.
