& ANYWHERE YOU CAN FIND A PODCAST
After a short hiatus, I return with the re-release of an interview with someone incredibly special to me, to so many of you, and to the luxury real estate industry at large—Jenny Pruitt.
This is the first episode I’ve released in several months, and I couldn’t think of a better way to return than by celebrating the life and legacy of someone who made an indelible impact on all of us. Jenny was more than just a leader in real estate; she was an extraordinary person whose wisdom, kindness, and strength touched the lives of so many.
I recently shared with Nancy See, her best friend and partner in business from the very beginning, ‘She was an amazing person. Her and your presence in my life made a true difference in so many ways, as y'all have for so many people. It’s hard to believe she’s gone. In so many ways, it seemed she would always be with us. In spirit, I know she will and is. I feel her presence in my life in so many ways, especially now.’
