A Video from the Heart—Not the Marketing Department

When I first saw the video linked below, I was completely caught off guard. Not because of what was said—but because I had no idea it was happening. Two of our agents, Jennifer Van Fleet and Amelia Sabater, had reached out to our in-house videographer and recorded a message straight from the heart. No scripts. No prep. No prompting.
