Various myths are emanating from cultural beliefs that females should always remain inferior to the male. But the theory now has become a thing of the past. With the expansion of the technology industry and innovation in technology, many tasks have been simplified. The world is slowly opening up to the reality of gender disparity and the need to address gender-based issues.
Connie is an excellent example of a female entrepreneur who has become successful in a male-dominated platform. Her zeal to make it in the real estate business was something she aspired to achieve from the word go. Although she was a full-time mom and wife, Connie used her active real estate license to help her friends and family members purchase their dream homes as part of the side hustle. By then, the thought of taking the full business time was not in her mind. However, overcoming a toxic marriage brought about the need to become fully independent pushed her off her comfort zone to explore her potential.
Forging her life with her two beautiful children, Connie initially thought to find a 9-5 job as a survival tactic. But the passion for going full board into real estate kept itching that she made a decisive decision to give it a try. The first six months led Connie to sell three houses and triggered an inner drive to push herself further. A year later, Connie was able to sell thirty-three houses, 11X more sales from her initial milestone achievement. As a result, Connie established her own company – White House Real Estate. The company focuses on equipping its agents to succeed at every level through personal development and personalized training based on agents’ strengths and individual personalities.
Connie advises entrepreneurs into breaking loose from self-inflicted limitations, deriving passion into converting your ideas into reality, and, most importantly, working hard and smart to attain your goals.
But wait,
Let’s break it down;
Breaking Loose From Self Inflicted Limitation
It is evident that some of the limitations are not from natural causes, but, to some extent, are self-inflicted. For instance, perceiving some career and industry to be gender alienated, Political spheres and positions being secluded to specific individuals, demographic locations categorized for a specific class of people, etc. All these limitations are mostly a mind game to limit individuals’ pursuit of gaining control of them. Therefore, it is paramount to speak to your inner self and convince yourself that you are unlimited. As the term defines “Sky’s the Limit,” but soaring higher as an eagle can as well make the limit limitless. Connie did just that by surrounding herself with individuals who spoke positivity and encouragement. She set daily goals for herself to begin with that grew into goal smashing months and years.
Derive Passion Into Converting Your Ideas Into Reality
We all have our innermost passion for something. Positively converting that passion into reality makes it possible to apply it to real-life situations. Connie’s passion for real estate led her to develop a unique strategic approach to attack the market and get a fair share of the cake.

She has built a great team that has led her to become a legend in the Birmingham real estate arena.
Working Hard and Smart
It would be best if you had a combination of hard work and working smart to make an indelible mark. By working hard, it means putting all your focus and efforts into achieving the most out of a given situation and exhausting all avenues when it comes to achieving your goals, even if it means stretching over your schedule and preceding other events to make it work. On the other hand, Working smart inclined more towards being creative and enhancing timely decision-making criteria to tap into opportunities as they come by.
All in all, believing in yourself and working towards your ideas without limiting yourself will eventually lead you to break the failure cycle and intrude on the success cycle.
