    Jul 7 2025

    In this episode, we’re reflecting on the evolution of WIIRE and everything we’ve learned from building a community of women in real estate. When we first launched our membership, we had no idea what we were getting into—and it showed. We talk candidly about why we ended up shutting that first version down, what we learned about pricing and commitment, and how we’ve refined our approach to make the experience more valuable for our members.

    We share how retreats have become a cornerstone of deeper connection, how podcasting helped grow our reach, and what it was like to write our first book—a huge milestone for us. This journey hasn’t been easy, but it has been full of lessons, especially around authenticity, leadership, and continually improving what we offer. If you’re curious about the behind-the-scenes of community building, the importance of metrics, or what it’s like to pivot and grow, this episode is for you.

  • WIIRE 185: Behind the Scenes: The Story of Building WIIRE Part 1
    Jun 30 2025

    In this episode, we’re taking you behind the scenes of how WIIRE really started. What began as a few social media connections has evolved into a powerful and growing community for women in real estate. Our very first meetup drew 30 to 40 attendees—far beyond what we expected—and that moment showed us there was something special here. We never set out to build a business, but by listening to our members and staying true to our values of authenticity and connection, WIIRE grew organically.

    We discuss how we transitioned from hosting free meetups to organizing retreats (our first one sold out before we even knew what we were doing!) and ultimately developed a more structured, sustainable business model. Along the way, we embraced risk-taking, learned from our early missteps, and built credibility through partnerships and experience. We also share why having a supportive team has been a game changer, and how we’re now leaning into online business systems and automation. This episode is all about the messy, exciting evolution of WIIRE—and a glimpse into what’s coming next.
