- Aligning actions with core values is crucial, bringing harmony to all aspects of life, including business.
- Mindfulness practices, like meditation and self-reflection, have been game-changers, providing clarity, intuition, and improved decision-making.
[18:45] – Carla shares her unique investment strategy, resulting in seven figures (net) within a short timeframe.
- She and her wife have successfully invested in real estate using the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat).

- This approach has rapidly expanded their portfolio while preserving capital, making real estate a powerful vehicle for financial growth and wealth creation.
