Stop Living in Misalignment β Kim Costa on How Your Home Either Supports or Sabotages Your Life
What if the home you are living in right now is quietly working against everything you are trying to build? That is the question Kim Costa starts with every single client β and tonight she is asking it on The Emily Rassam Show. Kim is a Top 5% Atlanta Realtor with Sotheby's International Realty, a Global Real Estate Advisor, host of the Live in Your Wheel House podcast , and author of Live in Your Wheel House: An Empowering Guide to Stay, Go, or Reno . But before all of that she was an accountant β and her journey from the numbers world to the world of reinvention and real estate is one of the most honest and relatable stories in this episode. Kim created the Wheelhouse Method β a framework that evaluates eight essential dimensions of life to help people make the most important home decision they will ever face: stay, go, or renovate. It is not about square footage or school districts. It is about who you are becoming β and whether the place you come home to every day is helping you get there or quietly holding you back.
