When I got licensed as a realtor in NYC many years ago, I used to love watching Million Dollar Listing NYC. But I found it humorous how easy they made being a realtor look. The truth is, it's rarely easy! There are often many obstacles on the path to a successful sale on both sides.

For every easy deal I've had, both in NYC and Santa Barbara, I've had many hard ones that required patience, perseverance, and a lot of creativity. I've also had to deal with the occasional looks of bewilderment when someone finds out that in addition to being a realtor, I am a musician and healer. "Wow, those are really different" they would say.

My answer has always been that no matter what I am doing in life, I do my best to bring my authentic self to the work which is a kind heart, and a relentless drive to 'get it done' no matter what obstacles appear on the path. As my friend Ganesha knows, obstacles can be full of grace when they lead us forward on the path we are meant to be on.

Whatever seems impossible to accomplish in your life today, know that it CAN and WILL be accomplished if you stick to it. You just have to take it one step at a time and be consistent with your effort. Sending love, light, and encouragement to all my soul family out there. I am here to be of service in any way I can. Blessings!
