The Unspoken Truths:
Marriage / Family / Business
 
Some call it counter-culture, others call it a modern family. Join me as we have a conversation about the dynamics of marriage, family, and business that are rarely talked about....in the open.
  • How do they do it all? Hint: They don't.
  • Mom guilt: Ain’t no shame in their game! These women aren’t winning any baking contests and can’t work the dishwasher - but make no mistake, their kids get the best of them!
  • Success: Such a big word - what even is the definition, anyway?
  • The Tribe: These are your people. The ones cheering for you at your peaks, walking with you during life’s humble moments. No matter how raw you are - they get you.


Since 2012, this tribe of four friends, referred to as “The Amigas,” has held various leadership roles in the real estate industry. Together, they have amassed over $2 Billion in business volume. Having met at an Indian restaurant in an historic jail during a real estate conference, they've had an ongoing, non-stop, daily chat conversation ever since.

Representing four generations, they discuss everything from botox to leadership, eyelashes to P&Ls, husbands to business building, kids to investing, and always a good dose of the daily juice! They’ve traveled the country together in pursuit of education, vacationed around the world, championed one another’s success, and always, always give honest feedback - even when the truth hurts!
