And for me, coaching has always been really important because as an athlete, I learned that, A, discipline and accountability but having someone that can look over your business or your life whatever it is that you're doing and help you see where your blind spots are help you understand and build the path that you want to be on and understand what your strengths are that you should be focusing on

you have to understand that about yourself before you can attract or bring in the right people around you so for me coaching was absolutely paramount and it continues to be and i continue to learn how to delegate because i still have a tendency to want to get everything done by myself but illness has taught me that i don't have the physical stamina to do everything

And nor should I, because there are people around me that are much better at certain activities than I am. So for me to be trying to do those activities is actually robbing them of the opportunity to really thrive at something that they love. So it's taken me a good decade, I would say, to build a team of people that are

So it's taken me a good decade, I would say, to build a team of people that are

I look around me and I know that the people on my team would absolutely do anything for me. They want nothing more than for me to get my health back. And they support me unconditionally through my treatments and they take amazing care of our clients. Honestly, my executive assistant, I like to call her my boss because she's

And they support me unconditionally through my treatments and they take amazing care of our clients. Honestly, my executive assistant, I like to call her my boss because she's

Her skill set is so vast and incredible and the complete opposite of mine. I wouldn't be able to get any of this, anything done without her, honestly. So understanding that we're not meant to do life alone. We're meant to do life in community together. Whatever that may be, whether it's at work or outside of work, for me, my business has become my family. It is a very demanding business.

Real estate is to perform at a high level. We work very hard. But the most important thing that I've learned and I had to learn and continue to learn the hard way through business not having the physical ability to do everything is understanding that we're not supposed to be able to do it all ourselves.

And when we can find like-minded individuals that have similar visions in terms of why they're doing business and what motivates them and really find the people, I like to call them like your tribe. Who are the people that

And when we can find like-minded individuals that have similar visions in terms of why they're doing business and what motivates them and really find the people, I like to call them like your tribe. Who are the people that

have your back unconditionally they care just as much as you do about the business or about your clients or whatever it may be as you do and it's taken me years and years to find those people but now that I have it's truly the only reason that I'm able to continue forward with having a really successful business is because I have people around me that not only care about

Me and my health and making sure that I'm able to take care of myself. If I'm not able to get out of bed one day, I know that these people have my back and that they're going to take just as good of care of our clients. They want to build relationships. They put heart into everything that they do. And I honestly don't know what I would do without my amazing team.

But it's taken years and years of coaching and therapy and mentors to help me understand that I can't do it all by myself and I need to. Delegation is actually giving someone the opportunity to be their best and to empower them. And I will continue to learn how to do it, but I believe in teamwork more than anything.
