Moms in Real Estate

Jessie Vukobratovich is proof that social media success isn’t about luck, it’s about staying in the game long enough to figure out what actually works. After six years of inconsistency, frustration, and posting content that completely missed the mark, Jessie finally made a shift that changed everything.

In this episode, she shares the exact moment she stopped focusing on what she thought people wanted (hint: market stats ????) and started creating hyperlocal, community-driven content her audience couldn’t stop watching. The result? Explosive growth, thousands of new followers in a matter of days, and now a steady stream of inbound leads every single week.

But it’s not just about going viral. Jessie breaks down how she turned attention into actual business, using simple but powerful systems like automated messaging, strategic lead capture, and consistent follow-up to convert views into closings. We’re also talking about the real side of growth: the months of posting with zero results, the overwhelm when leads start pouring in, and the investments she made (even when it felt risky) to build a sustainable, scalable business.

What does it really look like to build a thriving real estate business while raising young kids?

In this episode, Kristen sits down with Allie Readyhough, a top producing agent and mom of two who closed $75M in 2025. But behind that number is a story most people do not see.

From getting her license while pregnant to working late nights and juggling childcare on the fly, Allie shares the honest reality of building during one of the busiest seasons of life.

They talk about building a business from your sphere, the pressure of being “always on,” navigating mom guilt, and the moment she realized something had to change before burnout hit.

You will also hear how she scaled from doing everything herself to hiring the right people, building a strong team culture, and finally creating space to be present at home again.

This episode is real, relatable, and a reminder that sometimes the hardest seasons are the ones that set everything up.

If you are a mom in real estate trying to grow your business without losing yourself in the process, this one is for you.

What if you could build a wildly successful real estate business… without buying a single lead?

In this episode, I sit down with Shelby Hodges, top-producing agent, community connector, and mom of FOUR (yes, four under three ????) who’s quietly built a $38M, 85-transaction business powered entirely by relationships.

We’re diving into the real strategies behind her success, including:

• How she turned simple “pop-bys” into a scalable referral system
• The exact way she’s building a nationwide agent network (hint: it starts with a “creepy” DM)
• Why consistency and genuine connection beat hustle culture every time
• How she grew her business by 80% while working less and protecting her time as a mom
• The systems she’s refining (and the mistakes she’s owning) as she scales her team

Shelby proves that you don’t need to chase leads, you just need to show up, stay top of mind, and actually care about people.

If you’ve ever felt turned off by traditional sales tactics and want to grow your business in a way that feels natural, relational, and sustainable… this episode is your permission slip.

✨ Plus: We talk team culture, referrals from retiring agents, and how one teacher made $26K from just a few conversations.

The Rooms That Change You (And Why You Need to Be in Them)

What if the biggest shift in your business (and your life) has nothing to do with strategy… and everything to do with who you're surrounded by?

In this solo episode, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at a recent mastermind retreat I invested in (yes, the one that felt scary to say yes to ????) and the unexpected takeaway that hit me harder than anything else.

We’re talking about:

• Why getting out of your “bubble” is non-negotiable
• The real ROI of retreats, events, and masterminds
• How to know if you’re missing the right people in your life
• A simple exercise to audit your support system (this one might surprise you)

Plus, I’m sharing a super real moment of coming home emotionally overwhelmed, and how leaning on the right people completely shifted everything for me in less than 24 hours.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, isolated, or just craving deeper connection… this episode is your sign.

In this episode, we sit down with real estate entrepreneur and investor Chauncey Pham to talk about how agents can stop chasing endless transactions and start building multiple income streams within the real estate industry. Chauncey shares how she went from getting her license just to fund family Disney trips to building a vertically integrated real estate business that includes house flipping, design, team leadership, and media. We also dive into her unconventional take on social media, why not every agent needs to be an influencer, and how creativity can unlock new revenue opportunities. If you're a real estate agent feeling stuck on the transaction treadmill, this episode will challenge the way you think about building wealth in real estate.

Welcome back to the show! Today we're diving into something that has the power to completely transform your business, and honestly, your life too. We're talking about network expansion and why consistently meeting new people is one of the most important habits you can build, especially as a mom running a real estate business.

Over the years, I’ve talked to countless agents, week after week, year after year, and I’ve noticed a pattern. I’ve seen women who once had thriving businesses suddenly feel like everything slowed down. The leads dried up. The deals stopped flowing. And when we start unpacking why that happened, the answer almost always comes back to one simple question:

How are you consistently meeting new people?

And a lot of the time… there isn’t a clear answer.

Show Notes:

• The two critical questions every agent should ask: How am I consistently meeting new people? and How am I staying relevant after the connection?
• Creative and traditional networking strategies including open houses, community events, social media, and podcasting as a relationship-building tool.
• Why focusing on authentic relationships instead of sales tactics leads to long-term business growth.
• The importance of systems—CRMs, follow-ups, newsletters, and intentional social media engagement—to stay top-of-mind.
• How moms in real estate can build a successful business by focusing on one or two consistent lead-generation pillars instead of trying to do everything.
