In this episode of Best Business Partners, Jess and Erin settle into the studio with brand-new podcast equipment—upgraded mics and headphones that make the conversation clearer, brighter, and more real than ever. After a packed travel schedule, the duo sits down to unpack everything they learned at recent industry events and how those experiences are shaping the future of their leadership and their business.

Fresh off their trip to Austin for the Keller Williams Top Producer Mastermind, Jess and Erin share powerful insights on how artificial intelligence is transforming the real estate industry, how top agents are using AI tools to scale smarter, and why staying ahead of technology matters for long-term success in Southwest Florida’s evolving market.

Erin talks about her experience progressing through the CCIM (Certified Commercial Investment Member) coursework and how the education is elevating her commercial real estate expertise, deal analysis, and investment strategy. Jess breaks down the biggest takeaways from “The One Thing” Summit—especially the importance of focus, clarity, and building habits that protect your energy. Together, they open up about burnout, what it looks like in today’s real estate world, and the leadership lessons they’re carrying into 2026.

The episode also highlights The Harlan Foundation’s annual Holiday Drive, a community initiative supporting Lee County youth experiencing homelessness or living in foster care. Jess and Erin share how donated gift cards directly impact these kids—restoring dignity, offering choice, and giving them the ability to purchase essentials, treats, or holiday gifts that make the season brighter.

This conversation blends industry insights, personal growth, and community purpose—perfect for real estate professionals, leaders, and anyone looking to grow while making a difference.
