In this episode of Old Money, I sit down with Marina Shiferman—a former ballerina turned luxury realtor—to uncover how resilience, identity, and strategy intersect in both life and real estate. We explore three pivotal insights: the power of reinvention after personal loss, how education empowers first-time buyers in competitive markets, and why investing with a clear plan is the true key to financial freedom.

What You’ll Learn:

– How Marina transformed adversity into a thriving real estate career

– The essential steps first-time buyers must take in high-stakes markets

– What luxury clients actually want—and how to deliver it

– Why location, privacy, and customization define modern luxury

What if redefining luxury could unlock deeper self-trust and a richer life?

In this episode of Old Money, I sit down with luxury business insider turned women’s coach Mackenzie Belcastro to explore three captivating truths: the emotional psychology behind timeless brands, the rise of “quiet luxury” as a rebellion against flashy trends, and how adopting an abundance mindset can reshape your relationship with success.

What You’ll Learn:

– Why storytelling and heritage drive luxury’s emotional pull

– How “quiet luxury” is reshaping status and consumer behavior

– The real-world ethics behind fashion’s glossy facade

– How to shift from scarcity to abundance in your own life

Tap in to rethink what wealth really means—and why it starts within.
