Known for her strategic investments and inspiring podcast, 'The Conscious Investor', Julie shares her journey from teaching to being a successful real estate investor, driven by a passion to help others. She discusses starting out in residential real estate with the unexpected help of California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who inadvertently facilitated her first home purchase, thus beginning her real estate journey. The conversation highlights Julie's dedication to helping people, whether through education or providing affordable housing, and her transition into commercial real estate through syndication. As Julie explains, patience and integrity in building partnerships is crucial, as demonstrated by her eventual success in syndication despite initial setbacks.
