We had the good fortune of connecting with Tenesha Lusk and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tenesha, other than deciding to work for yourself, what else do you think played a pivotal role in your story?
The path to success? It’s more like a winding trail than a straight line, especially in an industry tangled with gender gaps and scant minority presence. So, how did I carve my way through these barriers? By transforming into an unstoppable force—constantly sharpening my skills, forging a diverse network of allies, and turning my unique perspective into my superpower.

Choosing to dive into discomfort wasn’t easy. It took guts, a rock-solid belief in my own worth, and a relentless drive to show the world that success doesn’t play favorites with gender or background. It’s up for grabs for anyone bold enough to challenge the status quo and blaze their own trail.

Jumping into entrepreneurship was just the beginning. Committing to being a lifelong learner and deliberately stepping into challenging, often uncomfortable situations? That’s the secret sauce. Looking back, it’s these choices, as unconventional as they seemed, that fueled my growth and propelled me forward.

What should our readers know about your business?
My belief? Life’s greatest adventures begin where your comfort zone ends. Buying a home can feel like wandering into unknown territory, filled with doubt and uncertainty. But I see this as a chance to empower you, lighting up the path toward what might seem like far-off dreams. My mission is to create not just homeowners but communities that thrive financially and are rich in experiences beyond just owning things.

The power of manifestation drives me. Your dreams and aspirations lay the foundation for our journey together. With each step, we’re not just finding a place you’ll call home. We’re bringing a vision of life, full of hope and promise, into reality.

It’s this mix of values—valuing people over transactions, building communities, encouraging bold steps, and believing in the power of dreams—that makes me different. Choosing me as your Realtor means choosing a partner committed to making your dreams a living, breathing reality. I’m the Realtor who puts relationships first.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
To My Husband, my anchor in the wild ride of entrepreneurship. Your unwavering values of security, family, leadership, and love have been the foundation on which I’ve built my dreams. Your faith in me sparked this incredible journey, one we never imagined would alter our family’s path, guided by the prayers of our ancestors. Truly, you are my co-pilot in this adventure. Without you, this journey wouldn’t have the liberty to inspire hope and faith in those watching from a distance.

Countless women have illuminated the path, teaching me that life is not just about surviving but thriving. It’s perfectly fine to harbor dreams that others may misconstrue as selfish ambition. Above all, my grandmother’s love instilled in me the unshakeable confidence that I could achieve anything.
