Remarkable Quotes

 

“It’s consistently being transparent, “Who can I help today?” It’s so sacrificing, but it's so rewarding. I couldn't imagine doing anything else.”

 

“You know, as a player, you just can't go out there and be fifty percent. And be effective. You gotta go! And you gotta be willing to fail. I didn’t win every game in my career. Failing is part of the process. You regroup, you adjust and with that comes success.”

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:06:37 

My gosh.

I didn't say I was fresh off about. I came back from

Bahamas where I've finished at school,

and I was new. I was learning to drive on other side of the row of tongue trying to, you know, get the gist of how everything was, you know, working up kind of in a time worth. You know? So

I met Mark, I think I had just started

kind a, you know, I was twenty twenty one. Yeah. Sorry. I moved she just our high school just knowing

 

Juliet Hahn  00:07:12 

It was it was above the ballot.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:07:18 

I was just working at a restaurant, honestly,

and

when, you know, it was probably around a super bowl time in Arizona,

and I think Mark and some buddies came in and you know, girls that I had worked with were hearing all these stories about athletes and, you know, never ever ever did an athlete. And so just the stigma around it back then. Right? And Arizona gonna kinda known

that hub of off season. That's where a lot of guys was come and say you're had homes because they could just kinda fall into normal life.

And so we met and became friends and, you know, you swore he wasn't an athlete, never played an Nfl. I'm like, oh, okay. You know, maybe night you just felt for like, he's a good guy, I won't go for the

And then, you know,

where we're supposed good friends and started dating and it just kind of went from there. I'm like, gosh, who is he's just a humble. No. That's... I think when our connection really started from, is both being very family oriented and she's a really humble guy.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:08:18 

I love that. I love that.

Oh, your muted.

I think you're moving.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:08:24 

Yeah. So so Matthew were planning at the time where we're not playing it time.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:08:29 

I was in

New Orleans, I think I just left philadelphia,

and I was in New Orleans.

When we first met, my line was, you know, I was... I I played like I was a trash man.

You know, because every every don't had

at the jury had the car as an all that, you know, I wasn't making too much money into I was thinking enough, but I just wanna to say, hey, Gonna figure out a different way that I can try to land as young lady in. They part. We're

like I'm.

No no.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:09:03 

Love it.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:09:03 

Oh, okay. That's so funny. That's of Well, and then you guys... And I... And I know I'm jumping, but I we'll go back you guys, your vowels recently as well, Having you?

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:09:12 

That's twenty nineteen.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:09:15 

Yeah. That's so beautiful.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:09:15 

That's beautiful.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:09:17 

That is beautiful.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:09:18 

I love that when you kids involved.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:09:18 

Well.

A long time a long time coming, I guess, you know, just starting out so young, and I mean, he's not that much taller than me. So

we just kinda grew through the years and transitions

and living from different states different. So, yeah. It was fine. Now kids, grown children.

Grab baby.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:09:40 

Right.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:09:40 

Right. Oh, that's beautiful.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:09:41 

I'm curious about that. I always...

It's it has to be such loving

decision when

you

want to renew your valves because I'm feeling that you look back and think, did we really know what we were saying that's men and promising for the future, But then at a certain point in your marriage. You're like, I wanna do this again because I really know how much I love you, and I really know what this means and unless Let's do it again to celebrate all over again. What was your mindset?

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:10:09 

Well, definitely not. I don't think That's really new. You know, In you're twenty one, you know, see what thirty looks like. You don't see a forty one look like, so, you know, four fifty

going through,

you know, you're just kinda into this world that you know, you really don't know anything about when it comes to professional athletes and their families and all of that. So we just went through the motions and then some of it was super fighting. Some of it was a little scary at times, but we just knew we wanted to be together and have kids and what that look like we we're just gonna taken out as it came. And so, yeah, I think we just reached the point while I all speak for him, but I reached a point that I thought, you know? Yeah. We're here. We made it our kids

you know, at a certain age and and we've spell more cells, I think, you know, coming from Arizona transitioning to las Vegas, and all of those things just really made a big a big difference

age,

I think, would be the number one you had a certain and you look back at least signed and thought

we've really been been through a lot, and we always somehow

stuck together. So... Yeah.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:11:24 

I love that.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:11:24 

Oh, that's beautiful. Yeah.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:11:25 

Agent distribution, like, appreciation for their life together, and

I imagine that the kids

had to really enjoy this celebration and did you have them... Were they a part of it, you know, to walk us through that?

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:11:38 

Absolutely.

So our daughter and the oldest she was my

native honor. So that was wonderful. I. I think they had a little... I can only they're I was like and she she's causes this was going on. Right. And she never that up years about He was just flowing to it, but my son just, you know, he was hanging out with me Fire evans was a minister.

Juliet Hahn  00:12:49

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:12:50 

between Mark and Randall and Byron who was gonna associate

the ceremony and how that was gonna play out that round okay well, you know, I'm the best man. You know, I'm said that's man. Right?

Definitely to watch. These grown better on those conversations and kind of thicker a little bit. So it was a lot of fun walk me down the aisle, and there lots of tears, but it was awesome that kinda of just felt like

Cynthia Zordich  00:13:33 

Well, what I love is this on

you know, so you do. You get married and you have this family. But then you end up like, creating these people that you really love to hang out with. You know, the people that you're like, yeah, you know, that you would pop in at my wedding anyways.

If you had been here already, like your relationship with your kids sounds amazing.

Isn't it? Is it so important to have that, like, as these people in your life on the day to day?

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:13:58 

Oh it is... Yeah. It it's wonderful. I think well, you mark with them, you know, doing some of it olive oils, and things was asking. Like, gosh I just can't think of names, what are great names. And, of course, our daughters just started texting around went off. All these, you know, names for and views them now. Like, oh my gosh. You know, she's picked them all out and so they're so involved in our everyday life. I always say it's great as they get older because then you can take a step back and watch,

kind of how your work plays out in their life is their parents but then you can start that friendship and hanging out together and, you know, it's just it's fun. Yeah. Yeah. They're every day a part of it somehow.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:14:37 

Right. And then seeing, I mean, seeing you guys pivot, you know, in you're in your life, I'm using the word pivot, but you know, I mean, Mark, you were a a big deal. I mean, you went to Alabama. I think don't you still hold a record in Alabama, which I think is so freaking cool. My oldest son is named

I I read somewhere.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:14:54 

They got broken.

Yeah. You got broken three years ago this for the longest

baron.

By being a patrick who's all pro in in a fell, so I didn't feel bad.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:15:04 

No. Okay.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:15:04 

You know, getting role by mind. I think the... The record was probably, like, fifty seven years when I broke it. So

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:15:05 

No

Oh,

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:15:12 

hopefully,

records are meant to be broken, but, you know, anytime you can

have a record, especially at Alabama, you know, was was pretty cool. So

Make a patrick. He did tweet me out. Already he texted send attack. So I'm sorry. I woke it record

 

Juliet Hahn  00:15:24 

That's

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:15:27 

but go through me

 

Juliet Hahn  00:15:27 

That's so cool.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:15:29 

Yeah. A great player. I played but the pittsburgh verse do he's one of the best players in the in the league now. So I feel bad when they say your record was broken,

Think what was broken my guy? That's all pro in the film right now.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:15:41 

Right. And, you know, it's so funny because when I was looking around, I'm like, k still has this. I was like, I must be reading something wrong, so I'm... I mean, that is a long time to have, you know, record, and then you're in the Nfl, and something do you wanna take it we're a little bit, you know, when you guys are trans, certain and stuff, how did that look as a family?

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:15:41 

Right

 

Juliet Hahn  00:15:58 

When when you you change train teams,

you know, physically,

how did that kind of go about?

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:16:07 

Give like, so you after the aftermath African four years in Philadelphia.

So your first

 

Juliet Hahn  00:16:11 

Yes.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:16:12 

from there, you went on to the saints, so you left filling witnesses and the satan. So

when Juliet always gets amazed by, how often we pick up our lives and move. You know? And so that would be interesting to hear of how you guys handled that whole situation of going

from Billy to the saints to the chiefs to the forty nights of Washington

to forty nine. You know, these are moves.

And that always amazing her.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:16:37 

Well, because that you guys have to pick up. I mean, I've moved, and I love adventure, so I'm always like, oh, it sounds so great. But any anytime I have moved

with kids, it's like, oh, you gotta get the dentist. I always bring this something always last, but the dentist and the doctors

designing all the papers for the school, making sure you have all the paperwork. It's not in a box, and then all of a sudden, you know, that first, like, month, you're like, oh my gosh. No one has seen a doctor,

I don't even know where to go if something happens. And so it amazes me. And so I get... I a little crazy about this. But it is it's so true. It amazes me how a family does that. So at ease, and you guys have to do it so many times. So, you know, Adrian and I would love to kinda hear your,

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:17:01 

Oh,

 

Juliet Hahn  00:17:14 

you know, your take of when you did that after,

you know, Mark left Philadelphia.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:17:20 

Yeah. I mean, when we met he was in between that you know, fill it out in in the cheap stage. So that

it it was different in a sense that, like, we didn't have kids. Yeah. We didn't have like, we were just starting out so it was more of the excitement in the fun and then, you know, being a can't city, which I love I event, can you just retire here because I people... We're so wonderful. I was like, it's just all of all everyone's so kind. And,

 

Juliet Hahn  00:17:34 

Mhmm.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:17:40 

Right.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:17:44 

yeah, so... You know, that was great until you get pregnant and You're like, of gosh. Now have to be a little bit more grounded.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:17:49 

Mhmm.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:17:52 

You gotta be a little bit more stable. And so our home base live Arizona,

and it just made sense

to be, you know, there and local. And then once, you know, we had

kids, that was oh my gosh. How do we we transition now it comes to, you know, do we visit you, you know, and for all the lines who've gone through it. I mean, sometimes, I'm sure you know, you just kind of

you... With the flow, it's, you know, from week to week, and how do we, you know, find those things like the dentist like the doctors and you just go with it because you know, you're the biggest fan and they're support and everything that they, you know, need

outside of the fall. They rely on you. And so I think just being there, you know, the presence. It's it's not easy, but I think in them only you don't really think about, oh my gosh. That's is stressful. You're just... I know as you what I have to do to make sure I'm there for him and kids and everything. You just go into that mother mode.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:18:46 

Right. And and and that's what I said, this is day. It it is a a person that is built. Like, I do, I believe in god, but whether you believe in the god or or or the universe. I really do believe there's a certain person that can handle that better than another person. And when you're in that, as you said, it's you really don't have a choice. This is who you love. I'm just gonna go with it. So I love how you said that. And in the beginning, when you don't have kids, Right? It's like an adventure. Like, whoa, this is so fun.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:19:03 

Mhmm.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:19:10 

But then, you know, you think I think this is when cynthia and I were talking about, I think about the women that maybe have,

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:19:10 

Mhmm.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:19:17 

you know, shop or a business in that town. And and how does that look? Like that fascinating me too, Like, okay. You just have to pick up and say go goodbye to your dreams.

Because you do love this person, and this is the life you chose,

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:19:26 

Mhmm.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:19:30 

and that kind of fascinating because that that has to be hard.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:19:33 

Yeah. Well, in such a big challenge or, I guess, factor that plays into that shoe is when you do have kids and unless say, like, for a Arizona what's our home base. So it was... Like, my husband was gone for six months set of a year,

and then all of the sudden he'd be back. You know, we might make a couple of business during to season or you've got it why we can come home and, you know, that's great. We get that family time and all the sudden when the fees and silver and they're home and a consistent basis and you as a woman feel

 

Juliet Hahn  00:19:51 

Mhmm

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:20:00 

gosh, I have everything running. I had my schedule when pins are on there.

Who are you? And why are you here? And now you're sitting on a you're... Like, my clothes

it's like that address

Acquainted it. Okay. Now this is our life for the next, you know, And then you don't I don't think a lot of people realize for the wise too is, you know, even if you're there with them and see, it's not like you get a ton of time together. I mean, the time that from the practice field to any media stuff to the games that, you know, you gotta steal those moments that you get to see each other. So

 

Juliet Hahn  00:20:25 

Mhmm.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:20:35 

you know, all of it comes with its challenges and views rewards at the same time. And I'm sure... I'm sure said he's probably been through this especially if we lose a game.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:20:44 

Right.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:20:44 

Yeah. Or we talk to anybody.

You know, it's it's it's it's a full time job, You know, And a lot of people just see it on Tv

for sixty minutes and like, oh my gosh. These guys are awesome. But, you know, it's a lot of work that goes into it,

Monday through sunday free my and you're fine for your job every week.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:21:04 

Mhmm

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:21:04 

You know, so, you know, being in that locker we're gonna be with those guys. That's why

we may not see each other for ten years, but when we see each other's, like, you

just saw each other last week because you know, you've been through that grind

you do awesome big time games. You cried with each other,

you know, a tribulation.

You know, I know

whatever we played vaglio that video always comes up when I think they give, like, five or six downs.

You see me gentlemen another field you see my authority is, like, you know, we're gonna give me each other high five and, you know, just go with through that. That that game again on on

T in that moment. Like, men, I still remember that gain it was cold,

We hated the cowboys,

 

Juliet Hahn  00:21:46 

Mhmm

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:21:46 

you know, after wasn't they gained it went liberal sudden that I it was like,

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:21:47 

Oh

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:21:51 

you know, in a player, takes a talk and takes a little time to come down from that. And,

you know, for, you just have to have a partner that understands that part of the game,

because it's it's it's tough on the wise I'm sure, you know? And

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:22:03 

Oops.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:22:04 

a lot of people now like, looking in, don't realize everything that goes into just winning a game or loosen in a game. And, Like said, when you lose the game,

everybody's pissed.

You know, you don't wanna talk anybody. You know, you just wanna try to get for that next week to win the game to get that same kinda winning and villain. But

like said, I I love all my teammates

know that I had opportunity to bond with. I think being z band, it was b z.

We got a it was a special bond there because, you know, Mike was a guy, a lot of people didn't, you know, really respect as the player, but maybe always had my back on the feud every time he made a play, like, the first guy over the to Gradually lady,

the same as you know, with myself as well.

My was a silent guy, You know, he's like that italian sound

 

Juliet Hahn  00:22:49 

Yeah

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:22:50 

you know, you can stick to, Right. But, you know, he he carried a big thinking I mean one of the leaders on our

outside the ball and

probably when the better teammates than an opportunity to play with the Z man, so you can tell that you know, when you get home, and I I love the Event He's always looked out for me.

Even when I took my son to michigan kid on a recruiting trip, you know, I got chance to hang up with you guys in the parking lot and might just show me you know, He gets opened his arms up to my son and my side doing the they like, man that I really had a good time in Michigan and I remember called Joy, you know, really looking out for us so Thank you to the George Family. Who always always leading up the.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:23:23 

Oh,

Yeah. It is special and he made a point to say that too that even to this day, Guys have a pretty cool kind of exchange

that you guys keep in touch, and that always means so much to me. You know? Because, yeah I do know how... Like, you know, you guys are. You you might not see each other, but when you do, it's it's immediate, and it's real.

And I know that you felt that way and I'm looking for... Do you remember when you guys didn't been, Silly there's this I am awesome closer downstairs

of you of might go on either end of all of these little kids doing something.

Think it was for the United Way,

but it's a huge poster that they had out and I saw went them so I haven't it downstairs Sarah. I'll send you fucking me.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:24:05 

Hello.

That on boat was that the one that's the boat that we did.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:24:10 

Yeah. That was that was with the

fibrosis. Remember that?

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:24:14 

Okay.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:24:16 

Yeah. That was a really good event too. That's the other thing? Like, you guys do so many events off the field. You guys are so involved in the communities.

And Adrian, I love how you said that, like, every family makes a decision. What's best for them? Is it best to be there during the season?

Or is it best to just dislike you have our off in place and we'll hook up because that way, everybody can focus on what they're doing. Everybody's different. Every family different, and we all do what works for us. So I can appreciate

that you like made that decision, to base

and then to going and visit

and then everybody can focus and get their work done because it is... It's a lot twenty four seven.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:24:54 

Yeah.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:24:54 

So

like you map it's involved.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:24:58 

Yeah. And and you know what? And and adrian, what you said, I think is so important that you are the person that needs to be there. You need to be kinda of, like the the the played out. Right? You need to be molded because it's like, okay. My life is here, and anyone can picture that A wife, a mom picture, you have the house running smooth. I mean, I I totally left because I know even like, with my husband, if he travels a couple days a week, and I'm like, okay, We're smooth. And then all of a sudden and... I'm like, why has everyone went up until eleven o'clock. I gotta wake them up in the morning. They're gonna be grumpy. You don't see when they're grumpy in the morning, but then they're grumpy. They treat me like, crap, because you had them up watching movies. It's a school night. You know? I mean, I can totally see that And and that's just a couple days. So I think that's what is so important and so not talked about, and this is why... When Cynthia and I started this, I said it's so important to shed the light into families like you guys and the z

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:24:58 

Yeah.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:25:45 

that can talk about, you know,

we do so much good stuff. And if there's, you know, believe, we'll talk about good stuff league. I mean, I think the league has gotten so much better. They're so much more positive coming out, but, you know, there was times where it was a lot of negative, and they're so much good

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:25:58 

Yeah

 

Juliet Hahn  00:25:59 

that the league does do. And so many beautiful families that come out of the league in so many beautiful relationships.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:26:04 

Oh

 

Juliet Hahn  00:26:05 

You know, time I've done of these events with Cynthia, What do I always say to you? I literally have, like, a pomegranate on, and I'm like, the energy and the love in your community that you guys have, and I'm so blessed that you kinda taken me in.

It's so

infectious, and so wonderful. And so I just thank you guys for taking the time to do this with us, and I know we're gonna, you know, since they said I'm gonna get to meet you guys in Arizona,

but you guys do so much. And I know I'm excited. Right? You do so much. And I think that's beautiful. And Again, I do think it's, you know, a certain person that can do that. But it's important,

you know, as cynthia said the the posters of you guys doing all the charity events.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:26:43 

Mhmm.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:26:43 

Is just is just really wonderful. So thank you.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:26:46 

Thank you. Or grateful call for you guys. For sure.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:26:50 

Yeah. Coming up in Arizona,

know what I think we guys are coming to the lunch

because the whole idea of the lunch is...

Like, why are you here? At a super Bowl, what are you doing? What do you up to? Like, tell us what you're up to promote what you're doing, take the floor, take it on the podcast,

put information out there, and I think you both are doing such exciting things right now, and that no age in your real estate business, I can't wait to talk about that. You know, I feel like this is such a great opportunity. There's so many and nfl women

in real estate, and I just feel like there's you're probably gonna go on and create some type of club, you know, like some type of, you know, just

you know, movement with it because, you know, we need to so we need to buy. We... And know there's people that want to invest, you know, take them into the next,

you know, make that your career. So

if you don't mind starting there, and then we'll talk to math about what you're doing that with the pre show in Vegas. Like, that sounds fun too. So let's start with Adrian

on your real estate.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:27:53 

I you know. I think for me, it's it's... How do we support each other? You know, in this community?

So I started out really just wanting to help people and a lot through, like, to your point of,

you know, moving within

the parameters you're given. Right? So he would come home

see then sometimes during this season, and

then if we had to move again or when we decided it, you know, we're not our home and need to purchase another home and just not knowing any better. You know, we're not educated in. We're not

understanding maybe what's going on in real estate or the market or

anything like that. And so,

you know, we went through experiences where you're buying a home, and then you're kind of gonna a... I said almost like a stigma. You know? It get these applause

from people. They're like, oh my god. Your husband in The nfl. This is amazing. You might have this beautiful life and no issues no worries. No problem.

They don't understand

because like everything comes with with sacrifice. Yeah. You have amazing blessings

and you're so grateful for those, but then also,

the sacrifice of people not really understanding

that taxing too. And then when we would go by at home, it's what is all paperwork and why do I feel, you know, they're trying to dive in and educate myself also, you know, still being really

young.

And I would, you know, tell mark like that so you think we got a little take advantage I like, we never saw a real chart after we locked in and saw the model or we never understood. So it was up to s then to, you know, I remember him taking pictures of every stage of the house, like, okay. It's praise. Okay. Found a beer can that what's going on with this then, you know, then you're just signing these documents and writing these big chats and not really knowing

why

you know, what what does all of this mean?

And probably by our third transaction of purchasing or selling at home, mark like you really need to do this. Like, you could help so many people

you know, by dissect the transaction process and

why they're sending so much money.

Why are these agents taking so much money in sense? Right? Because I'm very supportive of relatives, and, especially in a community

trying to get together with as many agents of nice on and brokers and everything this about the transaction

because I'm more

about let's support, let's share. Let's have transparency.

How are we really helping the client are be helping the community

because it's not always about how many am I selling this month. It's who am I helping? These are such

 

Juliet Hahn  00:30:24 

I love that.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:30:25 

through life,

and you wanna make sure that the person on the other side of that transaction

is happy

and that they don't feel. They were taken and advantage us. I'm not worried about yelp reviews. I'm more concerned with did they walk away selling?

That I did the best I could for them. You know, I'm supposed to be the expert. I'm supposed to be the one advising

on such a big decision. So for me, it was just a natural progression

from my finance background that

with his advice and support and it's, like, just help people so it started out that I was just gonna help our friends and family. Like, I just don't want them to get taken advantage of, like, maybe we were or how were. So

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:31:06 

Mhmm.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:31:07 

I just wanted to help people, and then it's just been one after the other. Like, can you help me? Can you help me? Can you and I just love it. I just have so much attitude that whenever I can do to hold their hands through the process, especially what's relocating. We know how that is, and you have to move and find the school and find that dentist and find the So we have people all the time, friends and with, you know, his community and network of friends that are... Oh my gosh from moving Arizona. We just had friends moved from hawaii to las Vegas, and I'm like, let me go get my most estate license in Vegas so I can help them and welcome them through, especially during the covid when it was shut down and you had to fell a home. Over the phone on facetime, Like, what a scary situation. I don't know that we could have

necessarily done that. You know? So

thanks so grateful that are clients trusted

me to go through that process with them because they knew as their friends, which just... I mean, we see them all the time and I'm always tugging on the just you know, thank you for allowing me to do that because they live in at home today. You know, they put full and they've done all these things and I was terrified I like us what if they move in? And They're like,

Agent didn't do at the job.

She was find the the great house, and there's still thankful, you know, it's we're a great neighborhood we love our home. We're just so proud you're a realtor. So to me, it was expanding that and how can we do more outreach in the community and have more of those conversations of being trans with what it really is in a transaction.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:32:09 

Mhmm

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:32:27 

Is you have so many hands in it from your lender to your financial advisor, especially with athletes,

you know, in and wise and you don't have all that time

to stop and say, okay. Let me die dissect. Like, you might have to move

the next week. You know, if your husband been is, hey, I just got transferred from this to this or I'm hoping to get picked up and you gotta go you need someone in that's kinda hold your hands. So I feel like as women as wise and, you know, I'm definitely pro

 

Juliet Hahn  00:32:41 

Right.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:32:54 

for a women like let's go, I've help each other

How can we be there for one another?

 

Juliet Hahn  00:33:00 

I love that, and you can feel your heart. I mean, you can really feel your heart there. Yeah. Go ahead Do.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:33:04 

We sure with... I

around

when my husband was in Arizona

and, I was pregnant with my first, and

he went to Guadalupe Bought a condominium,

just bought it and told me I found it the place so you can come out out. And so I went there the whole family were in Van,

and there were signs everywhere. Saying that it was

Juliet Hahn  00:34:20 

Oh, thank gosh.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:34:22 

we end up running a apartment. They, like, that's what happens. You know, you're you're out there looking quick. Your family's waiting to get off there. And you're just making decisions. So the fact that you're there to say,

this is what you need to look for in the home. This is what you need to look for in the area. This is what this is how you should finance it. This is how you should sell your house. So the fact that you're a person

for a family who's focused, really, at that time, it's just being together. You just wanna be to guess. You know, like, he could wait for me to get there. So therefore, he couldn't see anything wrong.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:34:55 

Except the closet

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:34:58 

Not even.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:34:58 

Sydney is gonna love.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:35:00 

Not even the count in the dumpster that he didn't even see that.

You just like, hey walked by the last in the dumpster too.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:35:08 

It was like she loves closets. This is a good one.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:35:11 

No funny and, Mark went to

the forty nine years, and I remember I was pregnant with our son, and

he, you know, this condo thing like hey I don't know how long I'm gonna be here, but I've I got a go. And so, you know, I didn't know what you was assigning a for and I fly in and, of course, I am, you know, big pregnant and it's, like, four stories up.

You know, you just go visit. So funny those stories that you think that, like, how who did we do that?

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:35:48

A couple hours. I went out. I felt first for cell signs, You know, you know, we wanted to be wasn't get you here before you had the baby.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:35:55 

But

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:36:02 

We, can it... But what you're doing is amazing because, you know, even in terms of, like,

the schedule of, like, from the framing, like, what do you look for and,

you know, the upgrades. The upgrades yes space. But, what did you sign off for? You know, And it's so nice to have somebody that really knows, and I can sit down and and they're comfortable to ask and not embarrassed to ask you. Like, it's physical.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:36:24 

And care. Yeah.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:36:26 

Mhmm.

Love it.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:36:27 

Yeah. No And I love it and I have to say one of the things that I love about this and Mark, you might appreciate this watching them is I love sitting here. And when Cynthia connects with old friends,

I get to hear stories that I haven't heard, and then I get to see the interaction and it makes me so freaking happy because it's it's just beautiful. It's beautiful. You can see

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:36:39 

Mhmm.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:36:46 

the love and the connection and also the respect and the understanding, which I think is so important You guys respect and understand each other. Just like, you know,

mark you and and and Michael, like, you guys respect and understand and other players and you see that so much in your community.

It's just beautiful.

So and I love what you're doing. My dad's a realtor. It it runs in my family, And so

it it is it's not an easy job, and you have to... Really, you know, I love that you said, it's about the people. It's not about the sale, and you can feel that.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:37:15 

Thank you. I appreciate it. Yeah.

You know, you have to be the years and the eye the feet on the ground through the process. You know, like I said, with, you know, him thinking heard of that home process was off season. So he was out there every day when I was you know, working with the kids and all that stuff and actually watching how that, you know,

moved into the home actually being done. But, yeah, to your point, it's like you've that builders and, you know, different scenarios where they want you to sign off and... Oh, those upgrades eighty thousand and oh, this and they just assume when you're an you got it. You know don't worry about. We'll just do custom mess and we'll... And by the time you're done, you're like, gosh I could've five three homes, but what we do? You know, and the

 

Juliet Hahn  00:37:54 

Right.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:37:54 

Oh.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:37:55 

was over there, handing me what to expect when expecting books, and I'm like, oh, I love. Yeah. Me is amazing, And I never saw him again and I'm like, we're you vote. But that's the that I wanted to make is I wanna make sure I am there. I'm not just handing you books to read and playing to be your best friend. I wanna really advise you, and do need to buy this? You and do that market. What kind of, you know, concessions are we going through right now, especially with this real estate market and it's crazy.

So a lot of my calls and a lot of my you know, community of clients are a lot of conversations.

You know, when is the right time to buy? Should I be selling right now? What do I have to look forward to next year? There's a lot of scarcity stuff out there in the news, but there's still people every day that have to move or they have to sell or they have to downsize. You know? So it's just being able to be there and hold her him and educate and know that you have them regardless. So I just talked to a real day day who said I know better. We notice. Real don't really have any friends, and I thought...

Well, that's really kinda of sad. I think real truth like, all of my clients are my friends, that they don't start out that way and they become that way and whether you know, I think your tribe kinda finds you is, you know, I'm not competition with other

 

Juliet Hahn  00:39:00 

Mhmm.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:39:03 

Right.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:39:06 

agents

necessarily. It's just being out being on the community with him and you know, our association with other

things happening in the area and how we can be a part of that. And then as you start conversations with people and they kinda gravitate you, and there's so much to go around for everyone,

then it's not a why I grab this one I gonna get that one, You know, the competition out there is fears, like, you know, if your father being an agent, but it's just consistency.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:39:24 

Oh

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:39:32 

You know, it's consistently being

 

Juliet Hahn  00:39:33 

Mhmm.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:39:36 

transparent in this open part of who can I help today? Who can I somehow

give them

anything? You know, it's just... It's so sacrificing, but it's so rewarding

at the same time I live it, and I thought it was gonna be a hobby, but good thing he buys me like,

you really need to do that, and I couldn't imagine doing anything else.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:39:57 

I love that. And I love the support. I love that, Mark was like, this is what he could see what you love and that... What you would be good at, and that's you could see the love that you guys have. I think, which is really beautiful.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:40:07 

Hey. I a great idea when you said

what you expect when you're expecting, which I I had that book and it's... That's pastel colors and the woman dinner.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:40:15

Cynthia Zordich  00:41:08 

Yeah. That be really fun. I mean, that would be really cool to be handled out to players, you know, like, early on, like, what to expect when you're buying, Like, this is, like, such good information because there's I'm sure. There's a lot things to be

wary of. You know, I remember, Matt remember when

they would call you guys and and say, don't go look at property alone. Remember that.

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:41:31 

Yeah.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:41:32

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:41:43 

Right.

You heard here, very

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:41:48 

Yeah. Don't worry about it anyways, because they I remember doing projects and somebody would kinda call me and say, hey, you know, I solve it. So if I was doing the exact thing that you're doing, You know? So you're like,

that, you know, takes the everything from you. Then you realize now, nobody can ever do anything the way you do it. It's it could be the same title. It could be the same idea.

Can't... It can't be your experience. It's if they're just not gonna do way evil.

 

Juliet Hahn  00:42:11 

No.

And well and adrian just like you said,

 

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:42:13

And that's what I always say, Even in my consulting business, Like, someone can be doing exactly as something said the exact same thing and and having an event exact same event, and it's gonna be different because the you feel. So I I... You know, it's it's that's really important. So I'm gonna pivot again, and I would love, you know, Mark to talk about your oils.

 

Cynthia Zordich  00:42:35

so smiley. Like, it's it's very sweet. Like, you can see that he really does support you and that it's proud. And and and I'm we're gonna... I know get to the oils, but it was that's one of the things that I love about doing this Cynthia, how many times when we were at the event last year, and I would, you know, we would go up with the microphone and say, you know, tell us about you. And the women would say, oh, I am so in so wife, and I'm like, no. No about you, and they literally pause. I said just something... I was actually taking back because I don't mind talking about myself and. But I'm... You know, my husband is not in professional sports, but they pause and they're, like, wait about me, and I'm like, Yes. What do you do? And then they would tell me what they did. And I was like, oh, my gosh.

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:46:03 

You know, I've been cooking for a while now. Obviously,

my website is growing middle, which I struck gold

with that with that platform

and just

different projects, being my void, we were just in the kids

just makes enough spices, you know, And

we came up with, like, seven

really good spices,

and we actually launched it. You know, and in this funny a couple years ago,

but, you know, we we was an Fda approved. So was like, we might need to sell this just a family and friend. In case somebody gets sick, We don't get sued. So we had to pull that up our.

I pull that off our website and and rethink everything that was going on and

my spices and everything was sold

online and did really well.

So now I'm Rebrand, rebranded my spices at the barbecue saw

that's being so in Arizona at materials day's hardware store

and philadelphia it out you. They're carrying my my spices and olive loyal.

Here in Las Vegas, We just picked up like home

Adreanne Harris McMillian  00:47:22 

And, you know, my wife set up a meeting with this hospice cares called nathan Allison hospice care. So we're we're just trying to figure out what can we do in the community since we're here how can I use my platform to help somebody else out? And

equal pi, we collaborated on a gorilla pizza

that's being featured now for January and February here in Vegas,

and they're donating

a dollar back from each.

meet the staff, like, just dive into it, and

I guess being my background as a player,

whenever you do something, you just dive in and you do it one hundred percent. You know, as the player, you just can't go out there and be fifty percent. And be effective. You know, you gotta go on you,

 

Juliet Hahn  00:50:11
