A Letter to the Real Estate Mama Who’s Doing It All (And Still Dreaming of More)

Dear Real Estate Mama,

If you’re reading this while holding space for your clients’ “urgency” and your child’s meltdown in the same breath—
Pause for a moment.

This letter is for you.

I see you: juggling school drop-offs and home inspections, soccer games and listing appointments, the never-ending to-do list—and the even longer list of dreams you haven’t said out loud in a while.

You’re not just holding your family together.
You’re holding a business together, too.

And if no one’s told you lately:
You’re doing an incredible job.

I’ve Been There

I remember the season of always giving, always going, always trying.
Of wanting to scale—but feeling like growth just meant more weight to carry.

And yet, in the middle of all the hustle… you’re still dreaming.
Of more impact. More income. More time.
A business that fits beautifully inside your life—instead of competing with it.

You Don’t Have to Choose

Let me say this clearly:
You are not behind.
You are not doing it wrong.
And you do not have to choose between being a present mom and a powerful CEO.

That version of you—the one who leads with clarity, closes luxury deals with confidence, and still makes it home for bedtime stories?
She’s not a fantasy.
She’s already within you.

You Are Becoming

She shows up every time you:
– Set a boundary with a client
– Choose systems over scrambling
– Decide you’re done being the bottleneck

Every time you ask for support.
Every time you say, “I want more.”
Every time you build with intention—you get closer to her.

So this Mother’s Day, let’s celebrate not just all that you do…
But who you are becoming.

A woman your kids will look at one day and say:
“That’s how I learned to lead.”

You’re Not Alone

Whether you’re in the trenches or starting to find your rhythm—
You’re building something that matters.
You’re allowed to want more.
And you’re already further than you think.

With so much love and belief in you,
Lacey
