Sold Sistas Podcast

What happens when you choose the wrong partner, the wrong friend, or the wrong business deal? And how do you come back from it?
LaTrease and Future welcome back Yatavia (mother, real estate agent, fashionista, and group home owner) for a real conversation about the effects of choosing wrong in love, friendship, and business. Yatavia opens up about leaving her marriage, praying and fasting before making the decision, taking a whole year to sit with herself, and why her story is one of redemption, not being a victim.
In this episode:- Choosing right: how support and grace during a partner's job loss pays off- The "three to six months" rule when your man loses his job- Staying married and miserable over a pension? We would never.- Love languages: gifts, acts of service, and the Raisinets story- Business partnerships: friends aren't always business partners, and customer service can make or break you- The power of saying hello (how LaTrease and Future really met)- When somebody shows you who they are, believe them- Start with the end in mind, and only do what you can afford: mentally, emotionally, and financially- Be careful who you take advice from- Surround yourself with people who celebrate you, not just take from you
Choose wisely. And if you've chosen wrong, it can still be a story of redemption.
Tell us in the comments: have you ever chosen wrong? What were the consequences, and how did you make it right?

One month you close three deals and make $16,000. The next month, nothing. Welcome to the real estate rollercoaster.
In this episode of the Sold Sistas Podcast, LaTrease and Future get honest about the highs and lows of real estate: not knowing where your next check is coming from, taking a "vacation" after one good commission and coming home broke, and why you can't get too high or too low in this business. More importantly, they break down how to get off the rollercoaster for good.
In this episode:- You eat what you hunt: why one deal at a time keeps you broke- Systems vs. hustle: you can't hustle your way to a multiple six-figure business- "What's 10% of zero?" Choosing a brokerage or team for support, not just the split- Marketing and content: "Perfect keeps you broke. Consistency keeps you paid."- Small habits that change everything, like laying your clothes out the night before- Deals falling apart (inspections, indecisive clients, even a pit bull attack) and how to stay calm- Why having multiple deals kills the desperation that makes agents panic- The mental game: morning routines, prayer, the gym, and refilling your cup- Follow-up without feeling like you're bothering people: lead with value- Thinking about quitting? Give your business 30 intentional days, and get the support you need
There is power in proximity. Get around winners, get a coach or a mentor, and stop pouring from an empty cup.

Some of this game they don’t want you to know… but we’re telling it anyway. In this episode of Sold Sistas, we’re breaking down the REAL strategies behind buying a home — from DPA programs, grants, and silent seconds to how buyers are stacking up to $35K+ in assistance and actually getting to the closing table. We’re talking: How programs like Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) work Stackable grants, liens, and what lenders don’t always explain Renting vs. buying — what it really costs to get in the door Creative deal structuring that wins in today’s market Negotiating power (including how we secured a new roof for our client 👀) We also keep it real about the industry: The truth about the NAR settlement and why sellers are still paying buyer’s agent commissions Why working with a knowledgeable, ethical agent matters more than ever Lenders asking agents to cut commission — and why that’s a conversation Mixing family and business… and when it goes LEFT 😬 And yes… we said what we said: If you choose wrong when it comes to your agent… that’s can cost you. Sold Sistas don’t just close deals — We advocate. We negotiate. We pray with and for our clients. 💼 Lenders, credit unions, and partners — we are actively accepting sponsorship opportunities. Let’s collaborate and serve more buyers together. 🎙️ We’re just getting started — bigger guests, more resources, and real conversations are on the way. 👇🏽 Drop a comment: What topics do you want us to cover next?

Everyone talks about the glitz, glam, and magic of the wedding day… but very few people prepare you for what comes after. What happens when the cameras are gone, the dress is packed away, and real life begins? In this special Sold Sistas x The Perspective crossover episode, LaTrease and Future bring their husbands to the table for a candid conversation about marriage, partnership, and the things people rarely talk about once the vows are exchanged.

And filled with perspective. Because the wedding is the celebration… but marriage is the real story.

The conversation goes deeper into:
• Why consistency is one of the hardest parts of podcasting
