As we wrap up 2025, this episode of Golden Nuggets is part reflection, part reality check, and part rally cry.

Joined by Kika Pavese Graham, we look back on the lessons that defined this year — from the evolution of mentorship and leadership, to the growing power of women-led communities in real estate — and look ahead to what really matters going into 2026.

We unpack:
✨ Why mentorship must evolve beyond one-to-one
✨ How women are building confidence, visibility, and influence - not just careers
✨ The habits, mindsets, and decisions that separate stagnation from momentum
✨ What the next generation of leaders needs to unlearn
✨ Why 2026 is about stepping up, not blending in

If 2025 was about growth, 2026 is about ownership - of voice, space, and direction.

If any career shortens your lifespan… it’s real estate.

In this Golden Nuggets episode, Silvia Eldawi sits down with Daniel Salewski, Founder of Elite Vita to unpack the science of longevity, peak performance, and stress resilience for high achievers.

From DNA health analysis, NAD+ therapy, and satori vibroacoustic treatments, to the real reasons high performers burn out - this episode gives you the playbook for staying sharper, younger, and healthier for longer.

Daniel shares his personal journey building Elite Vita, what he learned from reversing his own biological age, and the protocols high-performing real estate agents, entrepreneurs, and executives can apply immediately.

Whether you're in real estate or simply living life at 200mph, this episode will help you understand your body better, stress less, and perform at your absolute best.🔗 Follow Elite Vita:
