In this episode, Athena Captain and Jada Haycraft discuss the importance of taking control of your business rather than waiting for the market to improve. They emphasize the need for proactive pipeline management, internal analysis, and building strong relationships. Guest Ronnie Gulikers shares his experiences and insights on navigating challenges in the real estate market, focusing on behaviors over outcomes, and maintaining a work-life balance. The conversation highlights actionable steps for business growth, the significance of setting boundaries, and the opportunities that arise in difficult market conditions.
