Yesterday, I had a great Lunch and Learn with Drew Ebner of Guild Mortgage. It was one of those kicking off the year and getting in the right mindset type of events. One of the topics we touched on was the power of editing out the extra noise and mental clutter that bogs us down. […]
When I first started my real estate career well over two decades ago, real estate agents did not work from home. They worked in cubicles in offices and shared work space. There wasn’t even an option to work from home.

Q: “Denise, you are going to think I am crazy, but I am having a huge issue concentrating about everywhere I go! I have a CMA to do and I can’t focus on it at my home office, the brokerage office, at Starbucks, the library, anywhere!

Q: “Denise, as one of your coaching clients, I choose a word of the year. But this year the word I chose just isn’t resonating with me. It isn’t inspiring me the way previous words have. Any suggestions for helping me find my word?”
A: Absolutely! The first step is to get in a quiet space and have a conversation with yourself. I know it sounds ridiculous, but my go-to space is my master bedroom closet. For you it might be your car, a special place outside, the shower, anywhere that you can go and be alone with your thoughts. Tune everything out!
Then ask yourself this question, “What is holding me back?” Read more »

Q: “Denise, yesterday at your Summit (#RESS2020) you presented an interesting tool for agents to use to reconnect with past clients they haven’t been in touch with for a while. Can you share that with me? I am – er – asking for a friend.”
A: Please let your friend know that all hope is not lost. You can reconnect with your past clients! But don’t do it with a lame, “I know I have been out of touch and will do a better job in the coming year” letter. Instead, own the moment with a report! Read more »
