  The 90-Day Sprint: How Ashley Keeps Her Team Winning in Any Market | LeadingLane Podcast | Ep 133

  Aug 18, 202618 min

  Steven turns the mic on Ashley to break down the 90-day "sprint" (and its "summer surge" sequel) she runs with her team. Instead of a single annual goal that dies by March, agents choose a commitment level — Steady, Strong, or All In — and focus on the daily activities that actually create closings: conversations, CMAs, open houses, networking, database touches, and videos. Ashley shares the reflection questions she makes agents complete before every check-in, the hard accountability questions she asks, and why training and structure — not a better commission split — are what turn real estate into a lasting career. The result: her team is beating last year's numbers in a tougher market.

  Follow-Up or Follow-Through? The Habit That Actually Closes Deals | LeadingLane Podcast | Ep 132

  Aug 11, 202622 min

  Steven and Ashley get real about the least glamorous — and most profitable — habit in real estate: follow-up. They unpack the difference between follow-up and follow-through, share stories of deals won (a condo alert that basically closed itself, a check-in call that uncovered hail damage and saved a listing) and deals lost to silence, and explain why proactive, human touchpoints beat any paid lead source. The throughline: you're not too busy, you're just not prioritizing it — so schedule your future self, build a system you'll actually use, find an accountability partner, and eat the frog.

  AI as Your Real Estate Co-Pilot: Claude, ChatGPT & the Human Touch | LeadingLane Podcast | Ep 131

  Aug 4, 202624 min

  Steven and Ashley break down how they actually use AI day-to-day in real estate — from Claude's "record a skill" feature and an AI phone receptionist to ChatGPT for emails and reels. The throughline: AI is a powerful tool for prep, systems, and time savings, but relationships and human judgment still win the deal.

  Stop Chasing Shiny Objects: The Priority That Actually Grows Your Business | LeadingLane Podcast | Ep 129

  Jul 16, 202621 min

  In this episode, we get back to basics and talk about the one thing that actually grows a real estate business: making people your priority. We break down why there's no magic button or shiny new lead source that beats a well-worked CRM, and why so many agents let life happen to them instead of running an honest time audit. We dig into what it really means to provide value — market updates, home-care tips, CMAs, and consistent touchpoints — and why dropping $700 on another course means nothing without implementation. We also get real about the comparison trap, the victim mentality, and why blaming a 'slow market' is usually just an excuse. Most of all, we challenge you to stop waiting for leads to fall from the sky and start doing the simple, uncomfortable work that pays off.

  Buy Back Your Time: The Simple Systems That Free Up Your Day | LeadingLane Podcast | Ep 128

  Jul 9, 202625 min

  In this episode, we dig into Buy Back Your Time and why reclaiming your hours doesn't take a massive overhaul — just smart, simple shifts. We share how something as small as enabling automatic showing approvals saved a deal we almost lost, and how leaning into tools like ShowingTime helps us serve sellers faster with better feedback and real data. We get honest about the control-freak mindset that keeps us stuck, and why handing off the tasks we dread frees us up to do our best work. Most of all, we explore how buying back time isn't just about doing more business — it's about making room for the life we actually want to live.
