In Episode 31 of The Success Behind The Numbers, I sit down with Lisa Joa—a fearless team leader, dynamic networker, and a proud voice for Asian American agents in the real estate world. 🎙️🌸
From selling cell phones at 14 to leading one of the most respected teams at Keller Williams Gold Coast, Lisa shares her unfiltered journey—no shortcuts, no fluff. We dive deep into the early hustle, the pivotal lessons from her mentor, Elan Broca, and what it really takes to stay at the top in a competitive market.
Lisa opens up about her transition from Manhattan real estate to building a powerhouse team in the suburbs, how the Asian American community shaped her path, and why staying grounded in relationships has always been her secret weapon. If you’re in real estate—or thinking about leading a team—this one is a must-listen.
