The Double Duty Agent Podcast with Carla Higgins

Anniversary Flashback Episode: Aligned for Impact: How Scott & Rhonda Smith Built a Life, Business, and Legacy Together

Carla Higgins Season 1 Episode 72

In this powerful Anniversary Flashback, we revisit one of the most impactful episodes from our first year of the podcast featuring Scott and Rhonda Smith—a couple whose story continues to inspire agents across the country.

What happens when two people align their vision, values, and commitment?
Massive momentum. Unshakable trust. And a real estate business that becomes a legacy.

Scott and Rhonda didn’t leave unfulfilling jobs. They loved their careers. But what they loved even more was creating a life where they could show up fully for their family, serve their community, and work side by side. Their story is a masterclass in how aligned choices lead to extraordinary outcomes.

From flipping their first property before they even had a license, to owning and operating one of Indiana’s most successful market centers, their journey is packed with practical advice, honest reflections, and the kind of mindset shifts every double duty agent needs.

 

Keys to Success:

 

  • Commit vs. Interested: Treating real estate like a hobby costs you. Make the choice to commit—even if your time is limited.
  • Align with the Right People: Your brokerage, mentor, coach, vendors—choose partners that align with your goals and values.
  • Build Your Database: A consistent lead generation system begins with your sphere. Don’t be a secret agent!
  • Plan Your Transition: If you're working toward going full-time, a sound plan (with income, benefits, and support) is a must.
  • Mindset Shift: Stop wondering “how” and just get up and do it. You don’t need perfect circumstances—you need aligned action.
  • Leverage Support: Whether it’s a team, a system, or a coach, surrounding yourself with support is essential.

 

This Episode is For You If:

 

  • You're currently juggling a full-time job and building a real estate business.
  • You’re craving more time with your family—but not sure how to make the leap.
  • You want real talk about building a business together as a couple or partnership.
  • You need to be reminded that this is possible—for you.
