MY JOB 5 YEAR AGO...

This episode is brought to you by TCCarePackage.com, purchase your CARE PACKAGE TODAY, https://tccarepackage.com/

On February 27, 2018, I chose the path of entrepreneurship, which is basically like choosing violence, every day, L-O-L.

What is the gift of quitting?

I take a deep dive into the last 5 years, ups & downs, failures and wins, money and much more.

Join me in conversation, and if you have an "I QUIT" story, tell me about it.

The TC Playbook Course launching 1/26/22

Hi I’m Courtney. I have a heart for ambitious women entrepreneurs. In 2015

when I embarked on an entrepreneurial journey in real estate, I did so out of

shear desperation to create a lane for myself that would allow me to not only

make a great living, but to also be a present parent for my children. Within a

year of launching my real estate sales career, I quickly realized that I was less

present to my children than I was while working in Corporate America. I was no

closer to my initial “why.”

I decided to re-set my goals to align with my “why.”

I started my company Time Freedom TC in 2018. As the owner of a Transaction

Coordination firm, I no longer have to spend hours away from home showing

properties. I am home when my kids arrive. I can be selective about my clients

because the TC business supplements my income beautifully. I can employ

other women and help women agents which is my main demographic.

While building my brand may have looked effortless from the outside,

launching a business with no real business experience quickly forced me to

realize that entrepreneurship was anything but transparent. In 2020, I began

documenting my experience and learnings via The TC Playbook, a digital

course focused on helping women launch their TC Businesses in 5 weeks

without overwhelm.

For anyone planning on obtaining a real estate license, this episode is for you.

I failed my 1st attempt at taking the test (listen to find out what happened), but it was taking the necessary action and having self confidence that pushed me to eventually get my license.

There are a lot more opportunities you can achieve with your license, what are you goals?

TIPS TO PASS YOUR REAL ESTATE EXAM: 

• Affirmations - you need to believe you will pass the exam, first, start with pumping yourSELF up. 
• Timeblock Study Time
• Take as many Practice Quizzes and Exams you can possibly take, and try to memorize the wording they use because the questions are very similar. 
• Unless the Realtor offers free or paid tutorial sessions, they really cannot help you, you are truly on your own. 
• Read the questions, slowly and carefully before selecting your answers
• Depending on your study habits - I need to focus on 1 topic at a time before I can move on to the next. But because time is of the essence, I created a study schedule and breakdown for myself
• Breath - deep breaths, before, during, and after

What is a Real Estate Transaction Coordinator?

We are the GLUE behind each transaction ; ) 

Well, we are definitely part of a greater team and system that facilitates a transaction from contract to close. 

In this episode I provide you with an overview of what a transaction coordinator is, why a realtor/agent should hire a transaction coordinator and a BRIEF discussion on how much a transaction coordinator makes. 

Press play and remember to leave a comment and rating. 

I loved this article so I thought I would share on the breakdown of what a transaction coordinator does in Real Estate.

2022 was a wonderful year, not the best, but definitely a year full of some of my best lessons. 

We always hear the phrase "trust the process", and I never fully understood what that meant or actually felt like. Until, I FINALLY surrendered my need for control, put in the work and allowed everything to fall in AND out of place when the time was right.

Going into my 5th year of Transaction Coordination business, and approaching my 20th year working in the Real Estate industry, I am READY to elevate and expand in 2023. 

A lot of my growth has been stunted by my own fears and consistently living and operating from my "comfort" zone, which (spoiler alert) is not even comfortable. 

Can you relate?

In this episode I discuss some of those experiences that have lead me to this point, and how I intend to press forward in this new year and beyond. 

Enjoy!
