This photo was taken in June 2024, at my very first SOLD board.
I was with Isla, and I remember exactly how that moment felt.
A lovely family had trusted me to sell their mum’s home. Since then, I’ve gone on to sell three properties for that same family, and relationships like that are a huge part of why I started my own business in the first place.
I’m very open about who I am.
I’m a business owner. I’m a single mum. I work hard. I care enormously about the people I represent, and like most people, I’m trying to build a good life for myself and my daughter.
I don’t have a big corporate machine behind me Have more with the eXp team . My business is personal. My name is on it. My reputation is attached to every home I sell and every conversation I have.
And I think because I am so open, honest and approachable, people sometimes mistake kindness for weakness.
Over the years I’ve learned that there will always be people who push boundaries, expect more than is reasonable, take advantage of goodwill or forget that behind every small business is an actual person trying to earn a living.
That part can be difficult, particularly when you genuinely care.
But I won’t become harder or less caring because of it.
I’ll still answer the phone. I’ll still tell people the truth even when it isn’t necessarily what they want to hear. I’ll still go above and beyond for my clients. I’ll still celebrate every SOLD board like it matters.
Because it does.
What I have learned, though, is that being kind and being professional does not mean having no boundaries.
Nearly everything I’ve built since that first board has come from people trusting me, recommending me and coming back to me again.
That means more to me than people probably realise.
So this is really just a little reminder that behind every independent business is a person, a family, bills, responsibilities, hopes and a lot of hard work.
Support good people. Respect small businesses. And never mistake someone’s openness or kindness as an opportunity to take advantage.
I’m still proud of that first SOLD board.
And I’m even prouder of everything that has come since. ❤️
