Why I Wrote Winning in Real Estate

What does it really take to win in real estate—and where did the idea for Winning in Real Estate come from?

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the book and sharing the story of why I wrote Winning in Real Estate: Elevating Your Strategy, Presence, and Power in Every Market, along with the companion workbook designed to help you actually put the strategies into action.

I’ll talk about how my first book, Millennial vs. Machine, was rooted in my personal journey of using real estate investing to pay off my student loans, and how years of experience in real estate ultimately led me to write something much bigger.

I’m also getting into the behind-the-scenes of the writing process—how the book came together, how I organized years of experience and lessons into something practical, and what it looked like to sit down and actually write the thing.

And because this book wasn't created in a vacuum, I’ll share a little about the faith behind the process, including seeking the Lord for direction, learning to wait for the right timing, and trusting Him for the grace to bring the book to life.

This isn't just a conversation about writing a book. It's about the experiences, lessons, faith, and intentionality behind Winning in Real Estate—and why I believe the strategies in this book can help real estate professionals navigate any market with more clarity, confidence, and purpose.

If you've ever wondered what happens behind the scenes before an idea becomes a published book, this episode is for you.

After nearly a year away from the podcast, Courtney King is back—and she's bringing a new book with her.

In this special return episode of Winning in Real Estate, Courtney shares what she's been up to over the past year and the evolution behind her upcoming book, Winning in Real Estate: Elevating Your Strategy, Presence and Power in Every Market.

Originally envisioned as Millennial vs. Machine, the book evolved into a bigger conversation about what it really takes to build a successful and sustainable real estate business in a changing market.

Courtney talks about why the focus shifted from Millennial Vs. Machine to helping real estate agents, brokers, and professionals navigate changing markets, build better business strategies, leverage their strengths, create systems, generate leads, and build long-term wealth.

If you're a real estate agent, broker, entrepreneur, or real estate professional looking to grow your business and prepare for what's next, this episode gives you a first look at what's coming.
