Priya Nalli - From Burnout to Balance: How Female Realtors Can Build Six-Figure Businesses While Working Less

What if you could build a thriving real estate business without sacrificing your personal life? That's the question at the heart of my conversation with Priya Nalli of Priya Nalli Coaching, who transformed from a struggling single mom realtor to a successful business coach helping female agents scale to six figures while working less.

Priya's journey began in her parents' house with a one-year-old daughter, trying desperately to follow cookie-cutter advice from colleagues whose life circumstances looked nothing like hers. The breakthrough came when she stopped following others' playbooks and instead built a business around her unique strengths and preferences. By applying her background in event planning and attention to detail, she created systems and client experiences that felt authentic to her—and hit six figures in her first full year after making these changes.

The most powerful moment in our conversation comes when Priya shares her burnout story: after nearly dying during childbirth and requiring multiple blood transfusions, she was showing properties just one week after leaving the ICU. Why? Because she lacked the systems and support to step away from her business. This breaking point forced her to completely reimagine her approach to work, leading to her powerful realization: "My value is not in being available 24/7. My value is not because I answer your text message in 0.2 seconds."

For realtors feeling trapped in cycles of overwork, Priya offers a refreshing perspective on what creates true value for clients, how to set boundaries without losing business, and why mindset is the foundation for everything else. She even shares why she ultimately dissolved her real estate team, offering candid insights for agents considering team expansion.
