Notes

We include our daughter in our real estate business. Because the whole point of this is to have more quality time with her.

It’s preparation. I bring toys, snacks, and sometimes we have to switch in the room. It’s just life and I hope that doesn’t look too unprofessional to them, but it’s a priority for us. Even if we are driving for dollars and she needs to take a nap, we have a mat for her to sleep on and we will pull over and she will nap because it’s important to have that structure for her.

We engage her by telling her this could be your one day and things like that to start educating her now.

Being present as a family is really important to me. I think my priorities really shifted when I had my daughter. Honestly, I really reprioritized my life. I re-evaluated, what’s important to me and my career as wonderful as it is, and as much as I get out of my career, it isn’t as important as my family.

We have a college fund set up for her through College Backer and have family and friends to contribute for birthdays and holidays.
