Welcoming someone into your emotional space can be scary. But why? Learn what it means to rely on another person to protect and support you, without judgment. ❤

Is it magic?! ✨ Nah... It's the KJ Effect! 💪🏻🏡

It's a SELLERS MARKET and this talented, local agent can't seem to host a SINGLE open house (and it's not because she doesn't like parties)! She just can't seem to keep a house on the market for longer than 24 hours! 😍😍😍

For many brides-to-be, the dream of a dress is just out of reach because finances make it a challenge. That challenge served as inspiration for Heidi Janson, who founded Brides Across America (BAA) in 2008, creating a solution to unite military and first responder brides with perfectly matched dresses donated by bridal salons whose hearts were moved with the desire to give back.
