In this episode of Path of Progress, Alex Kononov sits down with Ginger Crystal Faith  ⁨@gingercrystalfaithgoldenca5485⁩  — a real estate broker, investor, and visionary who has spent over 30 years building wealth, flipping 57 homes, and creating women-led wealth networks.

From strip centers with tenants like Starbucks or Applebee’s to the power of triple-net leases, Ginger reveals why she believes commercial offers stronger cash flow, less stress, and more freedom.Through multiple market cycles, a divorce, and the 2008 crash, Ginger relied on persistence, prayer, and community to keep moving forward. Today, her mission is to help women 40–60 accelerate their retirement with smart real estate strategies through her new company, Lifestyle Wealth Strategies.This conversation dives deep into the lessons Ginger has learned from decades in the business — from avoiding scams and finding the right partners, to knowing when it’s time to pivot.
