Where Grit Meets Ground: The Retail Queen of Resilience, Heather Ewing

Pivot To Prosperity: Work Less... Make More!

In this inspiring episode of Pivot to Prosperity, host Ginny Bolling sits down with Heather Ewing, founder of Abstract Commercial Real Estate. Heather shares how a life-changing car accident in her twenties shifted her path from supply chain work to a thriving career in commercial real estate. Now known as “The Retail Queen” of Madison, Wisconsin, Heather helps investors turn vision into value through smart redevelopment, creative deal-making, and local know-how.
Learn how Heather’s drive, discipline (including national karate championships!), and eye for opportunity helped her build a boutique firm focused on retail, restaurants, and mixed-use projects. She breaks down how she evaluates properties, partners with developers, and uses both data and heart to uplift communities. If you’re in the business or thinking about jumping in, Heather’s story proves that even the hardest setbacks can lead to your greatest success.
