Episode 8: How Lavanya Garikina utilizes commercial real estate to give back to the community.
Lavanya owns Saffron Valley restaurants, Bix Bakery & Cafe , and is the founder of Rise Culinary Institute. This non-profit organization equips refugees and immigrants with culinary skills, nutrition education, and employment opportunities to help them achieve their full potential.
She aptly refers to herself as a "soulpreneur." She believes in the power of realigning with one's purpose to move forward in career and life in a way that feels connected to a sense of meaning. More recently, she has shared her empowering message of self-discovery through coaching and mentorship at Soul Spice Living.
Lavanya shared her story at one of our recent Utah Women's Investing Club luncheons. We are truly inspired each time we have the opportunity to speak with her, and we're so happy to share our conversation with you today.
When Sinead first had the idea to strike out on her own, as a real estate investor, she was newly divorced.
Now she owns eight properties.
In this podcast, we sit down with her for a conversation about how she turned a stressful situation into one that could support the life of abundance and balance she lives now.
She currently runs a thriving business as a Functional Nutritionist and Work Wellness Coach and finds the time to mother her three boys and tend to her own well-being thanks to her investments in real estate.
Tessa Arneson, founder of the Maven District, has been at the forefront of supporting diverse and underserved business owners for nearly twenty years.

In this episode of the At Home Podcast, Monique and Jenni sit down with Market Source Agent Craig Oborn to weigh the pros and cons of investing in a short-term rental.
Craig purchased a property specifically to rent it a few years ago and has never looked back.
Although short-term rental ownership is not for everyone, Craig has some great and very inspiring thoughts on how to get started, what to look out for, and how to take heart when challenges arise.
In this episode of the At Home Podcast, Jenni and Monique draw upon their years of experience as listing agents and talk about some major pitfalls they see sellers making when listing their homes. From failing to make minor repairs to shadowy iPhone photos to leaving a humid bathroom or the smells of cooking just before a showing, they have seen it all. The bottom line? Thoughtful preparation and maintenance of your home, while it’s on the market, can, and likely will, make a huge financial difference in the sale of your home.
Our first guest of the season is Market Source Agent, Tawna Campbell. We sit down with her to talk about funny experiences in real estate (like the time she accidentally walked in on a naked tenant).
