Looking through the microscope at top performer’s career

“My first listing actually came from my brother and at the time I hadn’t finished my papers, but it gave me the motivation I needed to complete them and make the move officially into sales.

"Nothing adds pressure to your first sale like selling a family home, though - it could've been an awkward family Christmas," Regan joked.

Regan's continuous growth and ascent within the Ray White ranks has seen her become a Chairman’s Elite agent which puts her in the top 2 per cent of Ray White Group agents in Australasia.

Regan spoke about the coaching and support she’s received from Glenn which has been a huge part of her success.

“He genuinely cares about his people, his staff, the community. It was a small team when I started and it’s much larger now, but the ethos is still the same.”

When asked about working alongside other top-performing female agents, Regan emphasised the strong bond and support they share.

"We're like sisters. We are family and are genuinely happy for each other's success. I always feel like our table is the loudest at the awards; we're screaming and cheering for each other - and that's genuine," she said.

Larissa asked Regan how she balances her career and her family life.

“It’s a challenge, but I prioritise spending my mornings with my daughters before I head into the office,” Regan said. While Regan acknowledged the importance of taking time off, she admitted that achieving a healthy work-life balance is a work in progress.

"For every working mum, achieving a ‘work-life balance’ is incredibly hard. I truly believe that people may say that to make mothers feel guilty. All we can do is the best we can," Regan shared.

Recognising the potential for burnout in a demanding industry, Regan's solution is to prioritise self-care and reset through sleep. She has also sought support from a mindfulness coach, introduced to the team by Glenn, which has proven beneficial for her overall wellbeing.

“One lesson I’ve learnt over the years in my career, is how important boundaries are, especially for yourself. It’s easy to take on everyone’s stressing, but realising putting up boundaries for yourself doesn’t make you any less empathetic,” Regan said.

“I also have learnt that not every listing is worth it. Listen to the red flags and don’t be afraid to walk away. We have a really cool culture in our office, where there’s genuine support for this mantra.”

Regan's commitment to her community extends beyond her real estate career. She actively participates in local events and fundraisers, viewing it as her duty to give back to the community that has supported her family.

"I like giving back; I really do. I feel like I have a duty to give back to the community that puts food on my family's table. Having worked with the school in fundraising, I know how hard it is, and that's something now I can help with on the other side," Regan expressed.

“The harder I work, the luckier I become. I am a lucky person, but I work hard to create that,” Regan said.

In her role as a salesperson, Regan spoke to one quote that has stuck with her and that she uses almost daily.

“You don’t know what you don’t know and that’s okay. It’s okay to not know, just ask,” she said.
