When The World Gets Noisy
Markets like thismake or break agents.
Now, more than ever, your success is determined by – What you believe – How you show up – Owning your value.
Are you just trying to make it work with everything going on in the world? Hoping to find clients with the courage to move?
Or
Are you showing up – owning your authority, expertise, and network – knowing that clients are out there, and you are the best person to help them?
I have seen it many times in my career.
When there’s a lot of noise – and very real situations, it’s easy to question how and if things will work out.
Here is what I know after 30 years of selling real estate.
The market will keep moving. Your clients need your guidance now more than ever. They aren’t expecting you to have a crystal ball on world events. They are expecting you to help them navigate their next move, and to show up with the confidence to do so.
Here are 5 things that help me when the world gets noisy to stay on track and keep my mindset right.
- Get intentional about the media you consume. I’ve never been a huge news watcher. I know just enough to counsel my clients on their real estate moves. Instead, I focus on positive things. Each morning I watch a positive video clip. This one by Esther Hicks is great!
- Work out more. A walk, swimming, lifting weights, dancing around the house to great music. Movement is one of the easiest and quickest ways to shift your energy.
- Build Your Network. I call agents constantly for price opinions, and to see how the activity has been on their listings. It’s valuable market knowledge that helps me counsel clients. I always appreciate how willing so many agents are to share. Together we all get better.
- Preview active listings. The more connected you are to the market, the more confident you will feel. Knowledge really is power.
- Deliberate chose your focus. We tend to see what we expect to find. If you believe that there are opportunities out there, you will find them. If you think the market is stalled and no one is moving, that will be your experience.
Success is a choice as much as it is an action.
Keep showing up. Believe in yourself and the world around you.
Never under estimate the power of your focus. I’ve been running my Proof It’s Working group for 2 months now, and the shifts that people have made by choosing to look for what’s working is amazing!
Something about the group seems to amplify the results for everyone. Ready to make this a great year? I invite you to join us for the next round that starts next Monday, March 16th.
To your success!

How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…

Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier. But somewhere between: “That sounds amazing” and “I’m a real estate agent – I need to generate clients and sell houses to earn an income” Things can get confusing. Because no matter how…
The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving.

Recalibrate In a Business That Runs 24/7
It happens to me every year about this time. The need to recalibrate. In a business that can run 24/7 – it’s easy to look up one day and realize, your batteries are drained and there’s no break in sight. Side note – It doesn’t have to be a 24/7 thing, but that’s a topic…
It’s Okay For Things To Be Different
I often find myself comparing things. I compare my business this year to years past.I compare my health and fitness to where I was 10 years ago.I compare how I show up and experience different life events. On the one hand – it makes perfect sense. Our brains crave predictability. It calms our nervous system.…
I Used To Be So Afraid Of This…
I used to dread client conversations. Especially pricing conversations with sellers in a softer market, like we are in right now. I was afraid of letting them down. It came up this week with a new listing. They bought at the height of the market in 2022. Today’s prices are lower than that. How do…
What If Your Income Didn’t Depend On The Market?
There are multiple markets occurring right now – in the same cities, on the same streets. Sellers are experiencing it one way. Buyers are experiencing it another. And agents? All over the board. Same market. Completely different results. So what’s the difference? What you believe. What you look for. And how you show up. Two…

I Stopped Waiting For The World To Change… That’s When Everything Did
I cringe when I look back at the things I used to believe about my business. Things like: For a long time, I believed these things were true, and out of my control to change. Until I learned how powerful energy and mindset are when applied to business. Here’s what my business looks like now…
