    About this Episode

    For today’s guest, the key to success is having the right priorities. You win some, you lose some, but as long as your definition of achievement is clear-cut, the journey will be worth it. 

    As she puts it, “What I learned after I quit my job is, don’t feel guilty over the things I didn’t finish—focus more on what I have done.” Today, our guest embodies her own personal brand of success, as a real estate investor, a wife, and a mother.

    Minna Hu is the President of Operations at Blue Planet Properties. She talks about her huge decision to leave her job as a software engineer at Ericsson to go full-time into real estate, all while taking care of two toddlers. 

    She didn’t let the challenge of juggling all these huge responsibilities stop her, simply because both she and her husband knew that the ultimate goal was to have the freedom of time and money to be there for their kids, anytime they wished. Learn how Minna was able to overcome the odds as she leapt with both feet into the world of real estate!

    WHAT TO LISTEN FOR

    • How Minna was able to effectively manage her household and duties as a mother after quitting her job to go into real estate
    • Why Minna chose real estate as her vehicle towards financial freedom over other asset classes
    • How Minna built up her confidence to invest in large multifamily deals
    • How Minna teaches her kids to think like entrepreneurs

    ABOUT CARA HOUSER

    Cara is a burnout expert, empowerment coach, and the author of Burned Out to Lit Up: Ditch the Grind and Reclaim Your Life, a guidebook for burnout recovery. 

    In her first career, Cara spent 20 years learning to survive and ultimately thrive in the pressure cooker real estate development business. Her teams produced over 3,000 homes in the San Francisco Bay Area, creating over 1.5 billion US dollars in value. Trying to be everything to everyone (except herself), she learned about burnout the hard way, and after a frightening wake-up call, she quit her job and spent the next two years healing, reconnecting with herself, and finding her way back to rich, full-bodied, joy-filled living.

    Now, she helps others step into their power and build lives and careers that light them up.

    ABOUT BRIAN CURCIO

    Brian Curcio is the chief executive officer and co-founder of Rapunzl and a passionate supporter of anything related to financial education. At a young age, he was fortunate to receive broad exposure to entrepreneurship and the stock market through his family. That’s why, during his senior year at Amherst College, together with his high school friend, Myles Gage, they developed Rapunzl and designed an app that could solve the three roadblocks that prohibit many from understanding the stock market: fear, exposure, and accessibility.

    Brian believes that people need game-based learning tools which simulate the real world and contexualize their learning if they are ever to learn how to properly invest. Rapunzl provides an incentive to learn, a place to share findings, and a risk-free community to make mistakes along the way.
