"I remember thinking, 'I'll never feel more satisfaction or richer than I feel in this moment.'" -Barbara Corcoran From a childhood marked by struggle to becoming a real estate titan, Barbara Corcoran's journey is a testament to the power of resilience and self-belief. Growing up in a family where money was tight and academic challenges loomed large, Barbara faced an uphill battle. A pivotal moment came when a teacher labeled her "stupid" due to her reading difficulties. But with her mother's unwavering support and her own determination, Barbara set out to prove that teacher wrong – and did she ever. Barbara's rise in the cutthroat world of New York real estate is nothing short of remarkable. Her keen insight into human psychology and sales strategy propelled her to the top of her field. But it was a modest $40,000 profit that brought her the greatest sense of fulfillment. With that hard-earned money, she bought her parents their first new cars – a bright blue Pontiac convertible for her mother and a Lincoln for her father. This act of generosity marked a turning point, showcasing not just financial success, but the emotional rewards of perseverance and family bonds. Listen to the full episode to discover Barbara's unique approach to sales, her tips for identifying a buyer's true motivations, and how she turned early setbacks into the driving force behind her phenomenal success.
