The Holidays are here. The New Year is coming. There is a beauty this time of year about reflecting on what has happened in the last 12 months and dreaming into what we want the next 12 to bring. But there is an in between that can get a little sticky – like you’re stuck…
It wouldn’t be November without a gratitude post. Specifically the energy of gratitude. There’s a funny misconception about gratitude as it relates to ‘what you focus on expands’ and setting goals for the coming year that are different from what you accomplished this year. I see a lot of people afraid to be grateful for…
This week’s post is for listing agents. We’ve gotten used to our stats being our point of value. We lead with our average market time, or our list to sales price ratio. And while you can still out perform the market, it feels less exciting to boast about double digit market times and a sale…
I’ve heard some interesting discussions with agents lately as they talk about buyers wanting to come in low on offers. Their initial reaction is to get upset and push back. It’s as if they feel like it’s our job as agents to determine if it’s a buyer or seller’s market and how the whole process…

We can’t seem to catch a break with interest rates lately. The Fed voted to increase them again this week. And while mortgage rates didn’t instantly shoot up, it’s going to have an impact. Every 1% raise in interest rates decreases buying power by 10%, and they are up almost 3% from last year. That’s…
We kicked off the latest round of Master Your Energy To Change Your Life this week, and one of the big themes that came up was the ways the Universe likes to ‘help’. Meaning, have you ever noticed that when you want to make a change, up level or improve something, random road blocks seem…
Woohoo! The kids are back in school and we are finally getting back to a routine in our house. But as good as that feels, it sometimes take a bit to get things going in the right direction. September is a great time to check in on your energy and your mindset. You have 120…
