What if real estate didn’t compete with family life, but actually made more room for it?
In this episode, we sit down with two agents who prove that building a meaningful business and being a present parent do not have to be opposing goals. Andrea Ryan and Zach Clark join us from two different Texas markets with one shared belief: real estate should support the life you want, not steal from it.
Andrea shares how a high-risk pregnancy and bed rest forced her to rethink everything she thought she knew about lead generation. From her bedroom, she built a buyer webinar model that still drives her business today while keeping her family at the center. She walks us through the mindset shift, the structure, and the conversational framework that turns online education into long-term clients.
Then we talk with Zach Clark, a former teacher who traded the classroom for open houses, diapers, and a brand built on community impact. Zach breaks down how hosting more than 100 open houses jump-started his career, how he converted strangers into clients, and how he now sells 20–25 homes a year while staying fully present as a dad. His community scholarship model shows how contribution can quietly become one of the strongest pillars of a business.
This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply human. If you are building a business while raising a family, or hoping real estate can give you more time instead of less, you will see yourself in this episode.
