Episode Synopsis
Join Brett Jennings, the founder of Real Estate Experts, and Amy Wienands, President and CEO of Amy Wienands Real Estate, in the first-ever interview on The Real Experts podcast.
Amy’s journey didn't begin with selling houses. Her career began rooted in service, first in psychology and then ministry. However, life's twists and turns led her to real estate, where she's been making a positive impact and achieving extraordinary success for nearly 30 years.
Amy's story is not just about selling houses. Her unique perspective on helping others through challenges to become the best they can be has created a team where everyone loves to work, and clients feel genuinely helped.
Starting with just two agents, her team has now grown to over 45, making Amy Wienands Real Estate the top team in Iowa for over eight years.
In this episode, Amy reveals how she turned a string of personal challenges into an opportunities for growth, from her health scare to market ups and downs. She shares how these moments made her rethink her goals and focus on what truly matters and how her morning routine, like her walks and visualizations, clear her head and set the direction for the day.
Amy also reveals how learning to hone and work with intuition has lead her to make bold moves that have had a huge impact beyond real estate, like starting a women's event out of the blue. This event was about empowering women to push past doubts and chase their dreams.
Here are the top-must-listen takeaways from the episode:
(3:12) How did a psychology degree lead to a thriving career in real estate
(11:14) Are you underestimating the power of your workspace
(13:00) Rebuilding a life of impact after a crisis

(20:35) Why is taking the high road crucial in real estate
(23:21) The power of no: avoiding troublesome real estate clients
(25:19) How can a daily mental 'elevator ride' change your life
(28:56) How does a bigger purpose fuel professional ambition
(36:46) Is it ever too late to pursue true passion and purpose
As we delve into Amy's story, it makes us think about the broader picture. How do we balance pursuing success with wanting to make a meaningful impact?
And how do our biggest challenges often become the source of our most significant achievements?
These are the conversations that can change how we view our paths and the decisions we make.
Join us to hear how Amy's journey is more than just her success; it's about her impact on others and the legacy she's building beyond just selling homes.
