Joni walks us through her journey from knocking on pre-foreclosure doors to scaling multiple businesses. We dig into the plateaus every PM entrepreneur hits, what it takes to break through 500–1,000 doors, and why acquisitions often beat organic growth. She also shares lessons from running a plumbing company (spoiler: never again), the reality of working with your spouse, and how she’s shifted focus toward family, vision, and building generational wealth.

If you’re a property management operator or entrepreneur thinking about scaling, hiring globally, or balancing work with family, you’ll find Joni’s story both practical and inspiring.
