To celebrate 13 years married, I’m replaying a listener-favorite: a candid conversation with my husband, Andrew, on what it’s really like to love (and live with) a real estate agent. We talk about the unpredictable hours, money-time tradeoffs, redefining roles at home, and the trust + communication it takes to build a life—and a business—together.

In this episode, we unpack:

• Time works differently in real estate — why “money hours” (negotiations, deadline sprints) change calendars, weekends, and vacations.
• Roles that actually work — ditching default gender scripts for a flexible, strengths-based partnership.
• Stop forcing “normal” — how trying to fit a realtor life into a 9–5 mold breeds resentment.
• The upside of embracing it — freedom, big swings (hello, month-long trips), and shared wins when you play the long game.
• Trust & boundaries — how discipline, systems, and clear expectations make love + listings coexist.
