Read My Story
Everything I built came from real life.
My career was never designed to fit inside one title. It grew from questions I kept asking about ownership, money, neighborhoods, family, opportunity and what happens when people are expected to make enormous decisions without enough information.
Those questions led me through real estate, financial education, publishing, radio, interviews, community conversations, entrepreneurship, live programming and public speaking.
Today, my work connects those experiences. Through Tayla Made LLC and my real estate work with Thumbprint Realty LLC, I help people make informed decisions, understand what is really in front of them and move forward with a clearer strategy.
Plan. Purchase. Protect. is not simply how I talk about buying a house. It is how I think about building, owning and protecting what matters.
Plan first. Then move.
Buying, selling or investing in real estate is too expensive to approach without a strategy. We start with the decision, the numbers, the timeline and the outcome you are trying to create before we rush into a transaction.

Build the strategy before money moves. Readiness, timeline, numbers and market positioning begin here.

Explore The ProtectionGive me the microphone. We will have a conversation.
I do not believe an audience needs another person standing on a stage reading information at them.
My strength is connection. I take complicated, emotional or uncomfortable subjects and help people enter the conversation, understand what is actually being said and leave with something they can use.
I am available for keynotes, panels, moderation, fireside conversations, workshops, interviews, media appearances, executive conversations and community programming.
Build something people actually care about.
I work with organizations when there is a real audience, a real need and a reason for us to build together. The right collaboration may be a campaign, sponsored conversation, live experience, educational initiative, hosted series, community activation, speaking engagement or media partnership.
If you are bringing an idea, bring the outcome too. Who are we trying to reach? What needs to happen because we worked together?
Start with information. Move with intention.
Not every person is ready to make a transaction today. That does not mean you should remain confused. Start with the tools, education and frameworks that help you understand the next decision.

Meet TaylaISSUES Healing how we were parented, and how we parent. Sunday • November 8, 2026
Strand Theatre • Dorchester, Boston
Some things need to be talked about.
Daddy Issues is a healing-centered community education experience about the connection between how we were parented, how we show up today and how we choose to parent, partner and build relationships differently.
Through dramatized stories, clinical interpretation, facilitated conversation, reflection and practical resources, we create room to recognize patterns without remaining trapped in blame, shame or the past.
This conversation is for men and women, parents and adult children, people raising children now, people considering parenthood and anyone willing to look honestly at what was inherited and what they want to change.
Daddy Issues is a community education and conversation experience. It is not psychotherapy and does not diagnose or treat attendees.
This work has a history.
Long before this version of the website existed, the work was already happening through media, real estate, publishing, interviews, events, community conversations and public education.
Years of interviews and conversations spanning real estate, money, politics, health, parenting, relationships and culture.
Public speaking, panels, interviews, moderation and conversations across business, community and cultural spaces.
Homeownership education written to make complicated information practical, useful and understandable.
Community programs, wealth conversations, public events and Daddy Issues connect education with real life.
Buy the house. Sell the property. Book the speaker. Build the partnership. Start the conversation.
