From being pranked into counting squirrels in Formby Pinewoods 🐿️ to selling homes with lakes (or was it just a big pond?) — Helen’s story is as entertaining as it is inspiring.

In this episode of The Gavel Drops, we sit down with Helen to unpack:

✅ Her leap from employed to self-employed — and how it felt watching her first sale go through knowing she’d earned it
✅ The moment she realised auction wasn’t just for “wrecks” — but also for stunning properties with motivated vendors
✅ Why auction day gives her a buzz like no other
✅ The emotional side of helping sellers in sensitive situations — and why empathy is her superpower
✅ Her love of walking around houses (even the less glamorous ones) and the joy of seeing buyers' dreams come true
✅ And of course… the famous quick-fire round: rosé wine, Twirls, and Bernie’s Thai green curry 🍷🍫🍛

Whether you’re in property or just love a story about grit, growth, and doing what’s right — this episode is packed with golden moments and heartfelt insights.

🎧 Tune in now to The Gavel Drops — because when the gavel drops, everything changes.
