In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Patrice M. Miller, a woman who embodies resilience, wisdom, and the kind of quiet strength that changes lives. Patrice is the author of Quiet Strength From Within—a book (and companion journal) that guides readers through healing, self-discovery, and renewal—as well as a real estate investing guide based on 25+ years of hands-on experience.
We dive into Patrice’s journey from corporate leadership to coaching and writing, how personal health challenges reshaped her path, and the strategies she uses to help others reset, refocus, and rise. Patrice’s approach blends heart-centered listening with actionable steps, making her guidance powerful for both life transitions and real estate goals.
Whether you’re an author, entrepreneur, or aspiring real estate investor, you’ll walk away from this conversation with clarity exercises, practical insights, and encouragement to take that next step forward.
