In this episode of the Elevate podcast, hosted by Samantha McLean, the Harcourts NSW CEO shares the powerful story of her son Lachy Cameron’s inspiring 900km run from Brisbane to Sydney to raise funds and awareness for mental health.
She reveals how she took up running to support Lachy on the journey, and how the life-changing lessons learnt along the way include the power of perseverance and mental resilience and why, in life and real estate, you need to prioritise progress over perfection.
Katrina also shares how she got into real estate, her incredible 28-year career and how coming from a place of saying ‘yes’ saw her take on bold career moves with the right balance of trepidation and determination.
She also takes a deep dive into the power of goal-setting and shines a light on why it’s so important to look beyond just GCI and consider wider business success and whether you’re taking the time to make memories and enjoy the little moments.
Sam and Katrina also reflect on the housing crisis, with Katrina outlining why she believes in urban consolidation and rentvesting, before revealing they’ll both be speaking at the Australian PropTech Summit.
Finally, Katrina explores the delicate balance of integrating technology with the human touch in real estate and how you can use it solve your clients pain points as well as the ‘clunky’ areas of your business.
“There will be beautiful moments on disappointing days and disappointing moments on beautiful days. Just remember to be human. It’s about living through those seconds, those minutes, those hours, but being supported is having someone to hold you through them. So think about who that support system is.” – Katrina Tarrant
