How to Be a Successful Real Estate Investor

Looking to gain financial freedom while maintaining balance and mental health? Welcome to the Real Estate InvestHER Show! Our guest today is Beth Johnson, co-owner of Flynn Family Lending, a boutique private lending business in Renton, WA. Beth provides concierge services for trust deed investors seeking passive income opportunities and offers innovative lending products to active real estate investors. She is also a published author and a member of several real estate organizations.   In this episode, we'll hear Beth's inspiring story and her journey to success, balance, and mental health. Despite achieving great success in business, Beth found herself feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, which led her to reassess her priorities. She talks about how Covid-19 and personal events helped her realize the importance of slowing down and focusing on family, health, and self-care. We'll also discuss the power of resetting, the strategies she used, and the importance of setting boundaries, being aware of our limitations, and taking time for reflection.   Quotes   ·      “We very much have the opportunity to say what we take on and what we don't. It is all about staying in tune with your internal barometer that says: ‘Is this truly how you define yourself?’” (05:03 - 05:19) ·      “Striving for the next level isn't necessarily malicious, but it's important to recognize our own limitations”. (16:06 - 16:17) ·      "Identifying your 'why' is crucial. It's not always about money, but rather what you're striving for. Set that foundation and expectation for yourself to avoid getting carried away." (26:35 - 26:39)   Connect with Beth: Website: Lend2Live LinkedIn: Beth P.
