Where do you find the right fit?

How do you attract the right people?

What can you possibly learn in one or two meetings to feel confident in your hire?

We've just gone through this process with my team, and we've learned a lot. We used some of our time tested strategies that has helped us to grow to a team of 43 incredible women, as well as employed some new tactics to help us to identify our just right fit.

You know how important it is to build a strong foundation in your real estate business, right?

Did you know that this is not something you do once?

As you grow either in the size of your team or in the amount of business that you do, there will come a time when that foundation needs a renovation.

On today's episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate - The Podcast, I'm sharing some of the things we have learned as we have been in the midst of this process with my real estate team.

Do you find yourself struggling with "imposter syndrome"?

Questioning the value you bring … even though you have documented success?

Worrying that others will "find out" that you aren't as smart or capable as they think you are?

Just me? No? Yep, I thought so.

I have conversations with incredibly successful women on the regular, and you'd be surprised how much this topic comes up.

On today's episode of Empowering Women in Real Estate - The Podcast, I'm sharing my (near daily) experiences with Imposter Syndrome, and the things I have learned to tell those voices to sit down and shut up already!
