Spreadsheets, CRMs, custom logos, daily reels, systems on systems… it’s easy to feel like you need it *all* to be a successful real estate agent. In this milestone episode of Hustle Humbly, Katy and Alissa strip things back to the essentials and share what really matters — and what you can let go of.

It’s not about having more. It’s about knowing what works — and focusing your energy where it counts.

Why Simplicity Wins in Real Estate

Too many tools and to-dos can paralyze your progress. Katy and Alissa explain how simplifying your systems can help you:

• Feel less overwhelmed
• Show up more consistently
• Build a sustainable business
• Enjoy your work again

It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what matters — well.

The True Must-Haves for Your Real Estate Toolkit

If you’re starting over (or starting out), this is your cheat sheet:

• A good email template system
• A database of your people — even in a notebook
• Strong listing photos + signs + basic branding
• Clear client communication and follow-up

You don’t need a fancy CRM or expensive automation. You just need systems you’ll actually use.

Things You Can Stop Worrying About

Katy and Alissa give you permission to let go of:

• Reels every day
• Perfect marketing packages
• Doing what “everyone else” is doing
• Over-customization and burnout

You are the value in your business — not the software.

Permission to Build a Business That Fits You

It’s okay to grow slow, to simplify, to step back. The ladies encourage you to build a business you actually enjoy showing up for — one that reflects *you*.

Toast of the Episode: Cheers to Keeping it Simple

Here’s to doing what matters most — and ditching the rest. 🥂
