Wait a minute. Did we just say there *may* be a time when you need to put on your pop-tart agent hat? Yep, we sure did. In this episode we admit that bending your boundaries just might be necessary from time to time. What are the tasks and situations that warrant you making an exception? We will tell you! Ultimately we agree that solid well communicated boundaries should keep your business running smoothly, but we all know there is an exception to every rule.

Who’s tired of hearing about how tough the market is right now?! This drastic inventory shortage has us all looking back on easier times where if you wanted to buy a house you could actually do just that.

Let your buyers know there are ways to win and you are equipped to help them get into that new house. If you are ready to get off that “run out and show brand new listing, write up an offer at all hours of the day/night, only to get rejected and start all over again” hamster wheel, then this show is for you!

What happens when one half of the podcast has a newborn? We decide to scrap the planned episode topic and welcome baby Tate into the studio for a candid chat about new mom life. If you thought that real estate roller coaster was wild, the ups and downs of new mom emotions will make your head spin. We talk about the desire to get back to a “normal” routine while trying to figure out your new life and the emotional impacts of judging yourself. Whether you are a mom or not we hope this episode encourages you to find peace in the season you are in and know that it is just that, a season.

Pop in your airpods and let us talk you through actually ending your work day and flipping the switch to personal and family time.

We just love doing these Q&A episodes, so keep those questions coming.
