Episode notes

Today, we’re joined by Rachel Cohen, who takes us through her journey, who transformed her life from being paralyzed to building a thriving real estate career.

Starting as a college athlete, Rachel’s life took unexpected turns, from managing a business with her ex-husband to facing a life-altering injury in 2006. After realizing she had no legacy to leave her children, she pivoted into real estate. Within a year of learning the ropes, Rachel became a co-GP in a 142-door property. Now, she’s focused on her second syndication in Tampa, proving that resilience and hard work can turn even the toughest challenges into opportunities.
