//podcastplus.net/feed/well-why~53c9de01 That Hits Home is a deep dive into the journey of life—its wins, struggles, lessons, and defining moments. Our goal is to create a space where we explore the paths we take, the detours we never saw coming, and the purpose that keeps us moving forward. Sometimes, the "how" doesn’t matter as much as the "why"—and that’s exactly what we’re here to uncover.

We talk about what really goes into planning a wedding behind the scenes and the welcomed balance between the left and right brain as a business owner. Whether you're planning a wedding or just fascinated by the people who make magic happen, this one’s full of thoughtful takeaways and candid moments. ------------------------------------ Instagram: @methenyandcompany Website: Metheny and Company Amazon Blood Type Test    ---    **Connect with us:**    *   Website: https://linktr.ee/alleesprung    *   Instagram: @seasyourhome ...

This little solo episode is basically just a place holder for the month of January, as I work towards building these skills back up and coordinate future podcast guests.  Bear with me while I slowly figure this thing out, but I'd rather it be done and messy than procrastinate for any longer. I hope this ridiculous episode inspires you to pick up that hobby you've been wanting to try, or start all over again, despite the outcome. I hope you'll join me on the continuation of this adventure! _____________________________________________________________ Mentions: Giggly Squad    ---    **Connect with us:**    *   Website: https://linktr.ee/alleesprung    *   Instagram: @seasyourhome    ---    **Credits:** ...

I've been choosing a word since 2015, and every year I learn the ins and outs of the exact word that I feel like my life is lacking, in some way. . Here's what I've come to discover, thus far: F - find the time and make sure to prioritize your day O - offer yourself grace while learning what works for you and pivoting how you structure your calendar, because like the seasons, our needs change and morph over time C - cultivate a schedule that feels good to you U - understand that you can do more than you think S - sleep. As much as you can. . As it may, these insights could change over the next few quarters of the year, but all I know is - focus on your daily actionable tasks and your future you will thank you :) .

I cannot wait for you to hear Eric share his passion about all things digital marking for real estate agents! We discuss how real estate agents can create a highly targeted and strategic outreach plan in order to connect with the people interested in relocating to our areas using YouTube, specifically, thanks to SEO optimization. Eric teaches us SO much in such a short period of time about getting in front of the right people on social media in order to monetize our services. There are numerous amounts of wise, information-filled nuggets in this conversation about how and why this system works.

My friend and clubhouse co-host, Giselle Bartolo, talk all about what we’re doing to bridge the gap for millennial women in real estate who understand collaboration over competition. Giselle has been in the industry longer than I have, and she an I have been sharing our experiences on a consistent basis as a sounding board, since we’re in completely different markets. This journey is all about building relationships and creating country-wide friendships with like-minded women, learning from each other and connecting on our challenges, and getting to a place where we have an entire map full of us interested in growing our businesses outside of our market. We talk about our mission, the topics we discuss on our weekly chats with the group, future conversations we’re excited about having, and the reason for starting this and putting so much energy into it in the first place.

Rafay and I discuss what it took for him to go from no mentor for brand new career in real estate to becoming the top 1% of real estate agents in Chicago running a fast growing team of 20+ agents. We talk about the future of teams for real estate agents, because so many fail in the first few years due to a lack of guidance! Rafay dropped ALLLLL the gems and was not holding back from sharing any secrets. In my opinion, it’s not only Rafay’s hard work and dedication to his craft, but it’s his willingness to share and connect that has likely gotten him to where he stands today. We touch on for sale by owners, from the point of view of prospecting as a real estate agent, as well as the essential importance of working with the right team of inspectors, attorneys and mortgage lenders who...
