Succeed On Purpose | Part 3: Engage Community

Building Your Community for Success

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” – African Proverb

This timeless wisdom is especially relevant in real estate and life. Achieving success requires a clear vision and actionable plan, but no plan thrives in isolation. In Part 3 of the Succeed on Purpose series, we’re diving into the WHO that will help you achieve your goals—the people who make the journey richer, more sustainable, and ultimately, more rewarding.

Whether it’s mentors, friends, or the professionals who support you at home and in business, your community is the secret to long-term success.

Why Community Matters

A strong support system is essential to your success—not just in business, but in maintaining balance and wellbeing. Here are some key roles to consider:

  • Mentors and Advisors: Those who offer guidance, tough love, and industry wisdom.
  • Friends and Emotional Support: Your go-to people for laughter, encouragement, or a shoulder to cry on.
  • Practical Help: From transaction managers and assistants to housekeepers and Instacart shoppers, practical help frees you to focus on what you do best.

Community isn’t just a luxury; it’s a necessity. 

Overcoming the Barriers to Asking for Help

If you’re like many women in real estate, you may resist asking for help. Common hesitations include:

  • “I can do it better myself.”
  • “It’s too expensive.”
  • “I don’t want to be a burden.”

The truth? Your request for help creates opportunities—not just for you, but for those you involve. You empower others to earn income, find purpose, and contribute meaningfully.

Action Steps to Build Your Support System

Ready to start building your community? Here’s what to do:

  1. Review Your Plan: Identify the areas where you need support.
  2. List Your Resources: Write down people who can help—mentors, peers, friends, service providers, and even professionals like coaches.
  3. Engage and Delegate: Start the conversation. Share your goals and let them know how they can support you.

And don’t forget—coaching counts, too! A coach provides clarity, encouragement, and accountability, helping you stay on track.
