Feel Good Friday 😎
💙 One Month Down at Eagle Mortgages & Protection 🧡
On 5th June, I sat at my desk, opened my laptop, and kicked off my journey as the principal of my own firm Eagle Mortgages & Protection.
🎢 What a ride it’s been
After 15 months of planning (yes, it took that long!)
I faced a whirlwind of challenges personally, all while battling a case of imposter syndrome that just wouldn’t budge.
Here are some thoughts from my first month
🔗 Relationships Matter More Than Ever
My clients stuck by me, and their loyalty has been absolutely incredible.
It feels amazing to have such supportive people on this journey.
🌀 Starting Fresh?
Not Really
The thought of starting over was intimidating, but I quickly realised that I am.not starting over just taking control and a slightly different change of direction.
🤝 Lender Connections:
Sure, I’ve lost a few face-to-face contacts with lenders, but guess what?
They’re still just a call away and ready to help.
Plus, I’ve made some awesome new connections in the industry this month!
💻 Tech Shenanigans
Let’s just say technology, and I have had a rocky relationship. From emails to website woes
Hiring someone to sort out my tech troubles was definitely the way to go!
🤔 Looking Back
I kind of wish I’d taken this leap years ago. Imposter syndrome held me back longer than it should have.
It’s a mix of scary and exciting.
Everything feels different yet oddly familiar.
Am I glad I took the plunge?
Absolutely!
Would I change anything?
Maybe a few things, but overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better first month.
Here’s to many more adventures ahead! 🥂
