Realtor Gift Guide: Gifts For Home Buyers

Custom Gift From Realtor to Home Buyer

August 10, 2023

Gift giving has always been hard for me. I want to leave a lasting impression on the person I'm giving to, which only comes from a gift that is filled with thought and understanding of who that person is and what they need. As a realtor, you've spent a lot of time with your clients. You've listened to them dream, broke the hard news of the house they thought was perfect only to find out they didn't get it, and then[...]

Finding Wholeness (Not Happiness)

June 12, 2023

What does happiness mean? Our founding fathers made a point of saying that a basic human right was to be able to pursue happiness, but what does that look like? Is happiness getting everything you want? Having a job that you are excited to wake up to every single day? Having a family that you never fight with? Does happiness look like an episode of Leave It To Beaver? What is happiness and how do we even pursu[...]

Productivity Culture: The Destructive History to Make More

March 20, 2023

The industry of productivity has been around since civilization began. However, most of the tactics we see in corporations and are taught to bring about the most yield for our work, were actually developed and perfected during the slave trade in 1619. Matthew Desmond paints a picture of the cotton industry and the enslaved workers during this time in episode 2 of the New York Times 1619 podcast. The way cotton fa[...]

4 Artist Newsletters To Follow

March 9, 2023

The content that comes into my world needs to be intentional. It's why November has become my spring cleaning of my social media and inbox, because the sales messages are overwhelming and almost always lacking true value. When it comes to a Newsletter, sure I want to know what's happening with a brand, but when it's all about the hard sell, I'd rather opt out. I'm more interested in stories, resources, and ways to g[...]

It’s Not You, It’s Me…Dealing with Rejection

March 6, 2023

I’ve lived with the fear of not being good enough for as long as I can remember. Don’t worry, I’ve been to therapy for this. It’s probably why rejection has always felt like the end of the world. To be honest, in the moment of being rejected isn’t really not that terrible, a little disappointing, some gut wrenching sensations and then I’m over it and on to the next thing. It’s the moments of fear[...]

Get out of Your Head and into Your Body

February 13, 2023

Je parle un peu français. (I speak a little French). I’m learning to speak French. It’s something I’ve wanted to do since middle school. In fact, in middle school and high school I took French, but only a year of it was required in both grades, needless to say, I don’t know very much. Its a beautiful and scary place to be at, not knowing very much. As children, we took this on with confidence.[...]

Building Your Self-Care Toolbox

February 6, 2023

I’m only as good as the last book I’ve read. This is a saying thrown around a lot in my family. We’re readers. So after any book we’ve read we have a lot of ideas to share and advice to give. They say that the best learning is done when you teach, so we take what we’ve read and put it into action. Hence, I’m only as good as the last book I’ve read. You could take this further and say that I’[...]

On the Other Side of Burn-Out: The Process of Healing

January 13, 2023

We all reach our breaking point sooner or later, and with today’s hustle culture, I think we’re all closer than we think. I for one didn’t see it coming when the tiredness came on at a level I had never experienced. The adult acne consumed my face. And everything that I used to love slowly didn’t matter. My life was about making it through the day, hitting the couch and tuning out to something on Netflix. An[...]

It’s Time To Surrender

January 2, 2023

It’s interesting how the season of slow has become the “busiest time of the year.” From visiting with friends and family to getting organized for the year end in our businesses and our life. December went from being the month of restoration after a full harvest to being one more month filled with work, to-do lists, and the pressure to have it all together. Now that the holidays are done and we’re fully in[...]

Up-Level Your Snail Mail: How To Write a Thank You Note

December 26, 2022

Cards connect us. I have a folder of cards given to me from friends, family, coworkers, even strangers, from over the years and I love rediscovering that folder when I clean out my filing cabinet every so often. The most special cards are the ones written and signed by loved ones that have passed. Just seeing their handwriting again brings back so much of who they are. There is something magical about finding[...]
