What happens when life suddenly demands your attention, and your business has to wait?

In this deeply personal episode of Balance for Women in Real Estate, Lesa shares the heartbreaking loss of her childhood best friend, Jamie, and reflects on nearly 60 years of friendship, laughter, adventures, and unforgettable memories.

From growing up together to Jamie introducing Lesa to her future husband, their friendship was woven into some of life's most meaningful moments.

When Lesa unexpectedly learned that Jamie was dying, she dropped everything to spend her friend's final two days at her bedside. Those precious moments reinforced something she's believed for years: Your business should support your life, not consume it.

This episode is a heartfelt reminder that work-life balance isn't just about managing schedules, avoiding burnout, or taking vacations. It's about creating the freedom to show up for the people and moments that matter most.

In this episode:

• A beautiful friendship that began in 1966
• The unexpected loss that changed Lesa's perspective
• Why work-life balance is about so much more than time management
• The importance of building a real estate business that allows room for real life
• A reminder not to miss your life while building your success

Because at the end of the day, success isn't just about what we accomplish. It's also about the moments we're able to be present for.
