In this episode of the Attractive Mindset Podcast, Mastermind Rich sits down with Isabelle Guarino, CEO of the Residential Assisted Living Academy, to uncover how she turned a personal family challenge into an 8-business empire — all centered around luxury residential assisted living homes.

From starting as her father’s first hire to now coaching hundreds of investors nationwide, Isabelle shares exactly how this niche can cash flow $10K+ per month per property, the mindset shifts needed to succeed, and why this business is as much about impact as it is about income.

Whether you’re a real estate investor looking for a hidden high-demand niche, or someone curious about building generational wealth while making a difference, this conversation breaks down the business model, funding options, staffing strategies, and real numbers you need to know.

📌 This is more than just real estate — it’s how you do good and do well at the same time.
