This episode has it all—wine, real estate wisdom, leadership, advocacy, and so many laughs. I’m joined by the incredible Cindy Thackery: vineyard owner, managing broker of John L. Scott, and a fierce advocate for positive change in real estate and beyond.
We sip a beautiful, naturally made “naked wine” from Cindy’s vineyard (a pandemic project that turned into a passion), talk about harvesting 17 tons of Pinot Noir grapes, and how you can get your hands on some this fall. Then we dive into her real estate journey—from agent to managing broker—and her leadership within the Women's Council of Realtors, specifically the Portland, Oregon network, which supports women in the industry through education, connection, and opportunity.
But we don’t stop there. Cindy opens up about her recent role as a Federal Political Coordinator, representing the Oregon REALTOR® voice in Washington D.C. Her approach to advocacy isn’t about sides—it’s about solutions. With a balanced, thoughtful mindset, she champions policy that supports homeownership and uplifts communities. As she puts it, “It’s not red or blue, it’s purple policy.”
This episode is a toast to leadership, friendship, and being the change—one glass (and one laugh) at a time. Cheers!
