18: Kim Buckner Talks Growth + Strategy

What if I told you that you don’t have to navigate the real estate world alone? This podcast was created for women just like you—agents juggling business, life, and everything in between—who crave real conversations, heartfelt support, and practical wisdom. Join Rebecca Green, Kim Borcherding, and Kim Buckner as they share their journeys, lessons, and laughter to remind you that success is sweeter when it’s shared. Let’s grow together—press play when you’re ready.

In this episode of How to Real Estate Today, we’re sitting down with Kim Buckner—a Real Estate Coach for Women, Course Creator, and proud new Grandma—to talk about what it really takes to juggle family life and a thriving real estate business. From boundary-setting and burnout to raising the bar when business gets slow, Kim brings the kind of perspective every woman in real estate needs to hear. We dive into how the industry often pushes women to compromise their time, energy, and standards—and why it’s time to stop. Plus, Kim shares her latest passion project: the W.I.R.E Mastermind (Women in Real Estate) launching April 30th, and her brand new Buyer & Seller Guide templates that are helping agents show up more confidently in any market. If you’ve ever struggled with saying no, felt isolated in your career, or wondered how to build a business that works with your life, not against it—this one’s for you.
