.

This is your year to enhance your skills, bring peace to your relationships, improve your habits, work on yourself, get healthier, get sober, and simply improve.
It’s time to break free from the patterns that have held you back and create the life you’ve always envisioned. Each day is an opportunity to make better choices, build healthier routines, and surround yourself with people and environments that support your growth.
Start small, be consistent, and remember that progress is more important than perfection. This journey is yours, and every step forward is a victory worth celebrating. This is your year to thrive, not just survive.
WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT
The Follow-Up Boss Virtual Event! It’s free and packed with incredible insights. This event features sessions on technology and AI in real estate, insights from growing and top-performing teams, market trends from a Zillow economist, lead generation techniques, and best practices for buyer broker presentations. Highlights include a motivational opening with Tristan Ahumada, CEO of Lab Coat Agents, and expert insights from Trenton Bodin, Chris Tamm, Veronica Figueroa, Barry Jenkins, and the Jason Campbell Team. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain practical strategies and connect with industry leaders.
BOOK I’M READING
Jack Canfield’s The Success Principles. I’ve read this before, but here I am reading it again. Iit never ceases to inspire. It’s filled with practical advice from the co-creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, offering timeless, life-transforming principles.
WHAT I’M WATCHING
The “Bronze Medal Mindset”. This Mel Robbins Podcast episode talks about the Olympians' mindset and how their habits can be game-changers for us all. Plus, there’s a free workbook from Mel to help you apply these lessons in your life. Check it out at melrobbins.com/what!
WHAT I’M LISTENING TO
Brian Halligan: Scaling Culture. The Knowledge Project’s episode featuring HubSpot’s co-founder Brian Halligan. He shares his journey from startup to IPO. It’s a must-listen for anyone looking to merge personal growth with professional success.
WHAT I JUST BOUGHT
Paperblanks Notebook. I love the look and the feel of this one. It’s like holding a piece of Renaissance art, bringing a touch of the 1600s into modern-day journaling. It’s beautiful and perfect for jotting down my thoughts.
ARTICLE I’M READING
Weaving Mindfulness into Your Work Day. Many executives say they don’t have time for mindfulness practices, such as daily meditation. An alternative is micro-presence: weaving moments of mindfulness into the workday to heighten self-awareness, recalibrate, and reset. Simple practices like deep breathing or pausing to express gratitude can make a world of difference.
WHAT TECH I’M TESTING OUT
Syllaby. I’m testing out faceless videos using this product and it’s been going great on Youtube and TikTok. This tool helps me create social media-ready content without any experience. It’s not real estate related, but I do see my channels growing.
WHAT I’M WORKING ON
Google Business Profile. We recently revamped our Google Business Profile PDF. If you need it, text me at 310-356-3715, and I’ll send it over.
