Podczas najbliższego spotkania zapraszamy Was do refleksji nad synergią w rodzinie. Porozmawiamy o tym, że każdy z nas – nie tylko dziecko – jest w procesie wzrastania. Jako rodzice jesteśmy nie tylko wychowawcami naszych dzieci, ale również… samych siebie. To, jak reagujemy, jak komunikujemy się i jak przeżywamy emocje, wpływa nie tylko na nasze dzieci. Pokazuje też, na ile sami jesteśmy w kontakcie ze swoimi talentami, historią i tym, co w nas żywe. To spotkanie będzie zaproszeniem do zatrzymania się — i spojrzenia głębiej: na dziecko, na siebie i na Waszą relację. Goście spotkania: Iza i Piotr Antosiewicz – małżeństwo z ponad 30-letnim doświadczeniem, autorzy książki „Synergia talentów”. Choć oboje pracują w obszarze talentów, każde z nich wnosi inną, uzupełniającą się perspektywę: 🔹 Iza – specjalizuje się w odkrywaniu i rozwijaniu mocnych stron, pomagając zobaczyć to, co w człowieku naturalne i wartościowe 🔹 Piotr – koncentruje się na komunikacji, szczególnie w nurcie Porozumienia bez Przemocy (NVC), wspierając budowanie relacji opartych na zrozumieniu i autentycznym dialogu To połączenie dwóch światów – talentów i komunikacji – daje praktyczne narzędzia do mądrego wychowania i budowania bliskości w rodzinie.

Fix the property. Rent it or sell it. But there’s another side of real estate that can create cash flow, flexibility, and opportunity without only focusing on owning more property. At this month’s Columbus Investors Club, Tiffany and Josh High are sitting down with Eddie Speed - a real estate veteran with 40 years of experience who has closed more than 50,000 note deals. He has spent decades helping investors understand how to structure deals through seller finance and notes, and how to think more like the bank instead of just the buyer. This will be a practical conversation around a part of real estate most people have heard about, but very few truly understand. If you’ve ever wanted to know how to create more opportunities in deals, generate cash flow in a different way, or understand how seller finance actually works in the real world, this is a night you want to be in the room for. You’ll walk away thinking about deals differently, seeing new possibilities, and understanding how creative structuring can open doors that traditional investing alone can’t. **What You’ll Learn** * How seller finance works in real estate deals * How notes fit into real estate and create opportunity * How to structure deals more creatively * How investors generate cash flow by focusing on the payment * How to think like the bank instead of only focusing on owning the property * How this strategy can create flexibility in today’s market **Open Q&A - Ask Eddie Anything About** * Seller finance and how to use it in real deals * How notes work in a practical, beginner-friendly way * Creating cash flow without only relying on rentals * Structuring deals that others might miss * How experienced investors think differently about financing * Common mistakes investors make when they only focus on the property **Why You Should Be in the Room** Because the investors who win in the long run know how to do more than just buy houses. They know how to structure.They know how to create terms.They know how to see opportunities other people miss. This is the kind of conversation that can expand the way you think about real estate entirely. Come ready to learn, ask questions, take notes, and connect with people who are serious about growing in this business. **Reserve your free seat now - and be part of the conversation.** Grab your spot here ➡️ https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-structure-real-estate-deals-using-seller-finance-and-notes-tickets-1984826171509?aff=cicmeetupapp
