Scaling a $4B Real Estate Empire from Behind the Scenes | Julia Spillman


Listen Later

In this episode, I sat down with the powerhouse behind one of the most recognized names in luxury real estate — Julia Spillman, CEO of the Eklund Gomes Team. You may know Fredrik Eklund and John Gomes from Million Dollar Listing, but Julia is the operational force that helped grow their business into a $4+ billion empire. We talked about what it really takes to scale, the power of building a brand, and how she leads a national team with grit, discipline, and heart. We also dove into what it means to be a female CEO in a male-dominated industry, how content and storytelling drives real business, and why betting on yourself is always worth it. Julia drops nonstop gems in this one.
