Prospecting and nurture bring business in. Follow-up keeps it.

In Part 3 of the Systems Series, Karen shares her simple weekly update system—the cadence, scripting, and expectations that reduce client anxiety, cut down inbound “status” calls, and build trust through every phase of a transaction.

You’ll learn:

• Two ways to schedule weekly updates (single-day batch vs. rolling client day)

• Exactly what to include in seller and buyer updates (active + under contract)

• How to set expectations at the consult and stick to them

• Why proactive five-minute updates save hours later

Run this for one week and feel the difference in your pipeline—and your peace of mind.

Your prospecting system gets you new leads, but it’s your nurture system that keeps your business thriving year after year. In this episode of the Systems Series, I’m breaking down how to create a simple, sustainable nurture system that ensures you stay top of mind with clients, your sphere, and your referral network.

I’ll share my real-life approach to monthly, quarterly, and annual nurture activities—including email newsletters, postcards, pop-bys, and client appreciation drawings—and how they all work together to generate consistent business.

If you’ve ever overcomplicated your systems (like I have!) or struggled to keep up, this episode will show you how to simplify, automate, and create a nurture system that actually works.

Prospecting. It’s the system most real estate agents love to hate — but it’s also the one your business can’t survive without.

In this first episode of my Systems Series, I’m breaking down what prospecting really looks like today, why it doesn’t have to mean cold calls and door knocking, and how to create a system that works for YOU.

I’ll share my own “Daily Business Builders” — the prospecting system that has helped me consistently generate business for more than 20 years. These small, repeatable actions have kept my pipeline full through every season of my career.

If you’ve ever struggled with consistency in your lead generation, this episode will change the way you think about prospecting.

Here’s the truth: systems don’t box you in—they set you free.

In this episode, I’m giving you an overview of the five essential systems every real estate business needs … and setting the stage for a special October systems series where we’ll go deeper into each one.

Think of this as the “behind-the-scenes business” that makes everything else flow with more ease, consistency, and peace of mind.

A business that comes to you might sound too good to be true … but it’s not.
For 23 years, I’ve built my real estate career on referrals—not cold calls, not door knocking, not chasing leads. And the best part? It’s sustainable, consistent, and actually joyful.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how a referral-first mindset really works, why it’s not “passive” at all, and the systems I use to keep the referrals flowing year after year.

Why would a seasoned solo agent with decades of experience choose to join a team?

In this episode, I’m sharing a replay from my friend (and now Founding Agent Partner on our team in Florida!) Michele Bellisari. Michele opens up about the real reasons she made the move—not for leads, not because she didn’t know how to generate business—but for strategy, sustainability, and long-term opportunity.

This conversation is eye-opening, especially if you’ve ever wondered whether joining a team could actually benefit an experienced agent.

We all want things to be perfect — our systems, our client experiences, our businesses. But the truth is, perfection isn’t possible … and it’s not even the goal. The real key to long-term success in real estate (and in life) is continuous improvement.

In today’s episode, I share the story behind this reminder, how a simple comment shifted my mindset, and why embracing small tweaks over time is the true superpower that will sustain your business for years to come.

Listen in for practical ways to approach challenges with curiosity instead of frustration — and why the more you grow, the more important this mindset becomes.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing something I’ve never done before: a live, five-week coaching experience built exclusively for women in midlife real estate. It’s called The Midlife Real Estate Blueprint™, and this is the guide I wish I had six years ago when I knew I wanted to evolve my business—but didn’t know how.

This episode is for the woman who’s been successful in real estate but finds herself wondering … what’s next? Maybe you’re tired of the hustle. Maybe you’re craving more freedom. Maybe you’re ready to do real estate differently.

I’m walking you through the full breakdown of the course: who it’s for, what we’ll cover, and why it matters now more than ever.

This is for you if:

• You’re in your mid 40s, 50s, 60s or beyond.

• You’ve consistently sold $7M+ per year and want a new way forward.

• You want to stay in the industry you love—but stop serving every client personally.

• You’re ready to build a business that supports your life, not one that consumes it.

Doors close August 30, and space is limited for this founding round.
