Often times it is the experiences that we have in life that help shape us into the professionals that we will become and that could not have been modeled more perfectly that with my guests this week in Episode 76.

Our featured partners this week are Mid South Title and Black Tie Moving .

Melanie Blakeney with Marx-Bensdorf Realtors spent decades of her life working in real estate prior to becoming an agent, most notably serving at the CEO of the Memphis Area Association of Realtors. The results she’s been achieving in her four years as a realtor are nothing short of extraordinary, but so is her experience and it’s easy to see why clients are flocking to her professionalism and calming nature.

Following in the footsteps of an incredibly accomplished parent is no easy feat for anyone, but Jon Dickens with The Firm and Sophie Sandlin Raines with Community Mortgage have made it look far easier than it actually has been. These two rock stars are performing at some of the very highest levels in our city on their own merits while managing the expectations that come from the family accomplishments. It was a truly enlightening conversation to hear about their journey, struggles, and triumphs along the way.

As always our show is powered by The Jason Woods Home Loan Team and Sophie Sandlin Raines who are two awesome loan officers with Community Mortgage.
