001: Meet Jennifer Foster | The Lake Norman Pulse with Jen & Barrie
In this very first episode of the podcast, co-host Barrie Rojahn sits down with Jennifer Foster for a candid conversation about her journey into real estate, life on Lake Norman, and what the job really looks like behind the scenes.
Jennifer shares how growing up in Northern Virginia, spending her early adult years in Miami, and eventually settling in the Charlotte area shaped both her career and her perspective. Listeners hear how her path through residential leasing, HOA management, and property management built the problem-solving skills she now relies on in residential sales—and why she considers those experiences her secret weapon.
The episode dives into common misconceptions about real estate, from the idea that it’s glamorous and flexible to the reality of contracts, budgeting, late nights, weekends, and constant problem-solving. Jennifer offers an honest look at what it takes to truly protect clients’ financial interests.
Barrie also asks Jennifer to reflect on the most memorable moments of her career—from a challenging waterfront sale that required hands-on help all the way to the finish line, to a deeply meaningful transaction that confirmed she was exactly where she was meant to be.
Join Jen and Barrie every week for real conversations, real experiences, and a community-first approach to real estate and life on Lake Norman.
