It’s no secret – I’m a little bit woo. Actually a lot woo. Most mornings I ask the Universe: What do you want me to know that will support me with my day? Then I draw a card. This week I drew the Butterfly card. A symbol of transformation, good things to come and acknowledgement…

Can you feel it?  The vibe is shifting from summer to back to school and work. The second half of August is always interesting. My calendar is still full with summer activities, and at the same time, my mind is slowly changing gears back to work mode. My creativity is coming back, and I’m getting…

Your fee was x% of the price when the house was $40,000, why is it still x% now that houses are $2M? An agent in the Prosper mastermind ran up against this question recently, and it sparked a fascinating conversation on our call this week. I’ve been doing this for 29 years, and while houses…

But we all hit a rough patch from time to time – burn out, overwhelm, yucky clients, and difficult transactions can have you questioning your career choice.

True confession – in a perfect world, I’d take off from Memorial Day to Labor Day every year. The time would be spent outside with family and friends talking, laughing, playing and loving life. I have yet to achieve my perfect world summer – which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It means I get to…

Tomorrow is the 4th. This is your reminder – it’s okay to take time off. Just because technology allows us to work anytime, anywhere doesn’t mean you should. Sometimes the most productive thing you can do, is to do nothing productive at all. Enjoy the day and be present. To your success! Nicole

July 1st is next Tuesday, and you know what that means… Your in box is about to be flooded with emails about being 1/2 way through the year asking if you’re on track with your goals. And right about the same time, you’ll see agents posting on social media about how they just closed another…

Summer officially starts today! I live for the long days, spur of the moment dinners on the deck with friends, the warm weather, and relaxed vibe. Summer also brings its own special juggling act of navigating a shifting market, and clients that are not as focused on real estate. Side note – the market ALWAYS…

I’ll admit it, I’m not great at asking for help. Even when I know I need it. There are a variety of reason I struggle with asking: I’m busy and taking a step back to asses what I can outsource feels like one more task I don’t have time for. The task is something I’m…
