Feeling the squeeze of recession?
Two things I see every time I walk out the door is people and houses. Shelter is one of the basic needs in life and so there are still people buying and selling houses. Does buying and selling look different than the last few years? Yes. Are people still in need of the value and service you provide? Also, yes.

In uncertain times, there is still a market for buying and selling houses and we still have immense value to offer as real estate agents. Don't let this recession punk you like it did me in 2008.

In this episode:
[6:15] I believe we are in a recession even though it hasn't been declared.
[8:06] My first encounter with recession in 2008
[13:00] You are not alone
[13:38] Take the fear out. It's going to be okay.

Surely, I'm not the only one who is feeling overwhelmed in this season...
As real estate agents, we have experienced such a dynamic market over the last two years. There's a great deal of uncertainty. I'm fully convinced that our businesses will be fine, but we often carry the weight of other peoples' issues as agents. Add the pressure of your personal life of parenting, working out, getting your water in, and whatever else and before you know it, it's all too much. So I want to be open and let you in on a few things that have me feeling overwhelmed in this current season and how I'm working to slow down to take care of myself...and as a result be better for the people I serve in business and life.

In this episode: 

• [6:53] What I'm dealing with that's leading to overwhelm 
• [16:27] Acknowledge how you're feeling without apologizing 
• [17:42] Physically power down and reset 
• [20:58] Evaluate what's coming up that's adding pressure to your plate 
• [25:23] Take a break from social media 
• [30:28] Think about your future self
