Lori Hamlin, isn’t just a seasoned professional — she’s a 40+ year veteran of real estate, a proud representative of Coldwell Banker, and, as I put it, “the queen of real estate in Central New York”.

Throughout the conversation we explore:

Recognizing when it’s time to pivot — whether in career, business, or life.

The emotional weight of big decisions, and how Lori learned to trust her instincts over four decades of wins, losses, and reinventions.
