In this episode, I’m joined by agent, real estate coach and podcaster, Jessica Lentz. She is a great example of the fact that it is possible to build a business with boundaries that allow us to lead a fulfilling life, without earning less money or struggling to get clients. Jessica has built a $15 million volume business, working 5 hours a day, and working only clients who are a good fit. By not compromising and prioritizing what she values, she has built a business that’s a vehicle for living her best life, not a trap.    Jessica is a Realtor at Colorado Realty Pros and the Selling Dreams Team. She is in the top 1% of single agents in Colorado. She is also a real estate coach, speaker, teacher, and co-host of the podcast Home Girls.    There are many types of successful real estate business models, and we do actually have the ability to choose what our business is going to be like. In order for this job to truly be a vehicle for freedom, we actually have to run it in a way that’s truly authentic to us. That means working with who we want to work with, building a business around what we love, and boundaries to protect what we value most.
