It happens to the best of us. We devote so much time and energy growing our business and taking care of our loved ones that we end up having very little for ourselves.

Erika Brown joins us today for an inspiring conversation about overcoming limiting beliefs and achieving breakthroughs. When she stopped saying no to deals she didn’t understand, Erika was able to scale quickly and build a multi-million dollar real estate empire. She talks about how she’s managing her personal life in an unconventional way and opens up about how she healed from emotional burnout by reconnecting with her true self. 

Through her own experience of being a homeowner and investor, Erika has worked in every aspect of the business representing sellers, buyers, investors, and financing. Not only is Erika a successful realtor and real estate investor coach, she is also a mom of three handsome boys and a wife to her best friend.

1) InvestHER CON 2023

 

Meet Us in Arizona! | InvestHER CON 2023 Early Bird Tickets are available now!

The inaugural InvestHER CON was unforgettable.

We saw women freely raising their hands, asking questions, and going to the mic to share their thoughts; we saw women confidently speaking with sponsors, holding intimate conversations with each other, and connecting on a deeper level with themselves.

You laughed with us.

You cried with us.

You played in the arena with us.

And most of all, you inspired us!

We’re not stopping there. We’re thrilled to announce that InvestHER CON will be returning in May 2023, at a venue in sunny Arizona!
