Thank you to everyone who joined us today for our AI event. A huge thank you to D.J. Paris with Kale Realty for teaching us today!

We appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedules to be there and continue learning alongside us. These conversations are important as our industry continues to evolve, and it’s always valuable to be in a room with others who are open to growing.

We’ll share all of the materials as soon as we receive them so you can revisit and take what’s most helpful for you.

We hope to see you at our next event on May 7 for our Annual Mayoral Panel. It’s always a great opportunity to stay connected and informed within our local communities.

Thank you again for being part of our network. 💙

We’re so happy to welcome Bobbi Rose Dienhart and Chicago Real Estate Media as a Strategic Partner of our Women’s Council network.

Bobbi, your work helps bring homes, and the stories behind them, to life. In our industry, that kind of talent makes a lasting impact.

What you do truly supports the way our members serve their clients, and that matters more than you know. We’re really glad you’re here. 💛

You’ve probably tried AI by now…

but what if you’ve only been scratching the surface?

Most people are using it the hard way, and honestly, leaving a lot of opportunity on the table.

This upcoming event is going to flip that.

✨ Learn how to actually use AI in a way that saves you time

✨ Create better content without overthinking it

✨ Walk away with tools you can start using immediately

And the best part? You don’t need to be “techy” to get it.

📅 April 9

⏰ 9–11 AM

📍 405 Congress Pkwy., Crystal Lake

☕ Breakfast included

If you’ve ever thought,

“There has to be an easier way to do all of this…”

this is your sign.

Come sit with us, learn something new, and leave feeling just a little more confident (and maybe even a little excited) about AI.

Tonight’s Women’s Council of REALTORS® Elgin Area / McHenry County “Speakeasy” event was one for the books. 🙌

We had an incredible turnout with about 30 members and guests joining us for a fun, interactive evening focused on becoming more confident speakers.

A huge thank you to Margaret Hicks from MRED for leading such an engaging evening. From the moment we started, the room was filled with laughter, participation, and people cheering each other on.

Everyone jumped in, stepped outside their comfort zone, and supported one another, which is exactly what Women’s Council is all about.

Several attendees said it was the best Women’s Council event they’ve attended, which was truly great to hear. 💙

Nights like this remind me why I love being part of this organization - learning together, growing together, and building a community that lifts each other up.

Thank you to everyone who came out and made the evening so special! 🥰
