I’m deeply honored to be featured in a recent interview with Steve Marcinuk of Keycrew Journal — a trusted source for real estate insights, trends, and stories that matter. ️
In our conversation, Steve beautifully captured the essence of my real estate journey and the “why” behind YogaBug Real Estate—a brand built not just on selling homes, but on authentic alignment, mindful living, and long-term sustainability.

‍♀️ The Heart Behind YogaBug Real Estate
For me, real estate is about more than transactions—it’s about people, presence, and purpose. I believe in building a business that supports the full expression of who I am and encourages others to do the same. Whether I’m on a mountain trail, rolling out my yoga mat, or biking to a listing appointment, it’s all part of the same path.
One of my favorite moments from the interview was this quote:
“I do a spiritual exercise, I do a yoga practice. I hike a mountain every week, I bike to listing appointments. I don’t apologize for any of it, and I actually celebrate it.”
In an industry where burnout is far too common, I’ve intentionally created a way of working that honors my values—without compromising on excellence.

A Sustainable Alternative in Real Estate
Steve wrote:
“The key to longevity in real estate may not be found in working harder, but in creating authentic alignment between professional pursuits and personal passions.”
I couldn’t agree more. This alignment has not only sustained me for over two decades in real estate—it’s made the journey deeply fulfilling. As I shared:
“I could be a luxury real estate agent and do an amazing job for you. And I can do all this too. What a fun ride.” ‍♀️

Why It Matters
The real estate world is shifting. People are craving more meaning in their work, more connection in their communities, and more balance in their lives. My hope is that stories like this one remind us that we can lead with heart, build with purpose, and still thrive in business.
