Listen "331: A Realtor Leaves Their Phone for a Week"
Episode Synopsis
What if you left your phone behind… on purpose? In this episode we chat with top-producing Realtor Kim Lafleur, who did the unthinkable—she took a full-blown, out-of-the-country vacation *without* her phone. No calls. No texts. No Instagram scrolls. Just silence, sunshine, and serious boundaries. Kim walks us through what inspired the decision, how she actually pulled it off (yes, there was a team hand-off at the airport), and the powerful lessons she learned about control, trust, and rest. If you've ever felt chained to your phone or scared to take a break, this one's for you. Kim has sold over 655 homes with more than $121 million in volume and ranks in the top 10 of 1,900 agents in her market — and yet, she's living proof that your real estate business won't collapse when you step away. In fact, your boundaries might just make you better. Here's what we cover in this episode: - The surprising reason Kim chose to give up her phone - The exact process she used to prep her team and clients - Why NOT having her phone made her trip more meaningful - How her team handled real estate emergencies (and even got new listings) - What "the brick" is — and how it's changed her daily life - Why letting go of control might be your next best business move - Creative ways to set up support systems and reward the people who help you 🎧 Listen and get inspired to set stronger boundaries and maybe even plan a phone-free break of your own. 🛠 Resources & Links: - Email Templates 101: [emailtemplates101.com](https://emailtemplates101.com) - Build Your Own Business 101: [hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob](https://hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob) - Agent Systems 101: [agentsystems101.com](https://agentsystems101.com) - Free Database Template: [Get it here](https://hustlehumblypodcast.com) - Submit your toast or topic idea: [email protected] — **About Kim Lafleur:** Kim Lafleur is a top-producing Louisiana Realtor and team leader with over 655 homes sold and $121M+ in career volume.
