Hey Rainmakers! Chelsey and Stephen here, and wow—do we have an incredible story for you today. Picture this: you're 50 years old, looking at your 401(k), and realizing you could outlive your retirement savings in just seven years. It’s a scary thought, but today’s guest, Tresa Todd, turned that wake-up call into a life-changing pivot—and she’s here to inspire you to do the same.

In this episode, Tresa takes us on her journey from the medical field to real estate investing, where she not only transformed her finances but created the Women's Real Estate Investors Network, the largest organization of its kind in the country. What started as her sons urging her to take a leap of faith turned into a nationwide movement of women reclaiming their financial futures.

Tresa shares how she made $20,000 on her first real estate deal, learned to overcome fear and self-doubt, and built a thriving community. For anyone who thinks, “I’m not sure I’m cut out for this,” Tresa’s story proves otherwise. Whether you're a mom, entrepreneur, or just someone looking for a fresh start, this episode will inspire you to take that leap.

Stick around as Tresa breaks down:

• How to overcome fear and build confidence, even if you’re starting from scratch.
• Why you don’t need a ton of money to start investing in real estate.
• The importance of creating generational wealth and breaking free from limiting beliefs.
• Her favorite strategies for finding real estate deals and using other people’s money.

So, grab a notebook and get ready—this episode is packed with actionable tips and inspiring takeaways!
