From Dental Assistant to Top Realtor: A 10-Year Rise!

Real Estate Real World

This one’s a must-listen! I sat down with my girl Emily Valdez, and let me tell you—she is an absolute rockstar. 🏡✨

We’re talking real estate, open houses, flipping homes, social media marketing, and yes… even snail mail (because it STILL works, people!). Emily shares how she built a killer business, lands the right clients, and keeps real estate FUN (the way it should be!).

Oh, and did I mention she might’ve already sold her first flip before it even hit the market?! 🔥

If you’re in real estate (or thinking about it), this episode is packed with gold. Grab your coffee (or wine—no judgment), hit play, and let’s talk about what’s really working in today’s market. 🎧
