06. Your Big Why

We're taking a step back today to discuss something fundamental: our 'big why'. It's the driving force that propels us out of bed each morning and informs our every decision. Our big why is the reason, the purpose, and the motivation behind the choices we make, especially when it comes to wealth creation.Joining us for that conversation is Koren Bowman. Originally hailing from Newark, New Jersey, Koren is not only a proud graduate of Virginia State University with a degree in economics and finance, but she's also a trailblazer. In 2021, she made history as the first African-American woman to assume the owner and operating principal position at Keller Williams Premier in the Carolinas region. Nationally, she's only the seventh to achieve this honor.Beyond these commendable professional milestones, Koren also has an impressive service record. Serving on the social equity task force, she's been recognized as one of the national ambassadors, and she founded the nonprofit, Christ Saves Hearts Foundation, which champions heart health awareness while generously providing scholarships to minority students and families in dire need.Koren's advocacy doesn't end there. A staunch believer in wealth accumulation via homeownership, she, along with her husband Marcus, have established a multimillion-dollar real estate investment enterprise. Their mission is clear: to reshape the real estate sector, inspiring and uplifting individuals and local enterprises through impactful wealth-building initiatives. Her mission aligns seamlessly with our very essence here at The Color of Money.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyFind more at www.kurealestate.comKoren’s Christ Saves Heart FoundationFollow KU Real Estate Group on FacebookRead Identity Leadership by Stedman GrahamConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayProduced by NOVA Media
