OWL Eyes on me! I'm honored to share this post as the newest OWL in the parliament. My name is Haley Stoltzman and I joined OWL in 2022 as the Business Operations Manager. I come from a background in software project management and small business operations. While I don’t have the exciting origin stories of our owners/founders (please scroll down on our page to read the true stories of how OWL came about), I do have a short Q&A style post! What's the best piece of advice you've received that has guided your professional journey? “Follow the leader, not the money.” This piece of advice was given to me by my first professional mentor at JBS. He emphasized that if I found a company/leader with a vision I believed in, to stick with them and learn and grow (and the money eventually follows). I’ve really taken the advice to heart and have had such a rewarding career working for software start-ups, starting a company with my husband and now working for OWL. Really being invested in a team and vision makes each day so fulfilling and I’m so proud to say that I work with an amazing team here at OWL. What aspect of your business brings you the most joy and fulfillment? When colleagues ask me “Hey, can we get a report on X?” or “Do you have the number of Y?” and I can say YES. I am a big believer in process, data and transparency and I feel that I am doing my job well when I’m able to share clear insights with the team. What's your favorite type of music to play in the office to stay motivated and focused?  I always have music on in the background as I work (work from home can get quiet!) and I’ve really been enjoying country classics. How do you like to spend time outside of work? I love spending time with my husband, our 4 children and dog. We really enjoy getting out into the great Colorado outdoors with (very short) hikes and lots of time at the park. Cooking, mountain biking and yoga are some other ways I like to kick back when time allows. 

Massive Action Requires Massive Risks 🔥 I was six years into my union career that offered everything—great pay, benefits, and a pension when I found myself at a crossroads. By then, I was a part-time agent with a growing @newbuilds4you page that was gaining tons of new leads daily. The choice was clear yet daunting: continue in my secure job or dive head first into the unknown. 🤔 I chose to trust myself and my partner @robertbearcedeno For the first 7 months, I closed nothing. My skills were trash. That didn’t stop me from posting 2 reels a day, sharing stories everyday, and touring 7-8 new communities each week. I was determined to become the New Build King. No excuses, just trust in the process and relentless effort. Now, to think I help lead a Top 15 team in California, closing hundreds of new construction deals is humbling. This journey was built on three pillars: Trusting the process, consistency, and relentlessly building my skills. To those grinding every day, feeling like progress is out of reach: Don’t give up. You’re closer than you think. If you are losing motivation and want to learn about how I grew my skills and transitioned, comment “HELP” and we can schedule a strategy call where we will come up with your game plan to find success! #realtorlife #realtortips #realestateagent

One year ago I stepped down as CEO of WOAW, the company I founded when I was 21. I dedicated 5 years of my life to turning an idea into the undisputed market leader in the Personal Branding space ⤵ I was proud of what I had built, but it wasn't my 'baby' anymore: It was a full-blown adult. An adult that needed a different skillset to elevate it even higher. Enter Freddie Paxton. One year ago Fred stepped up as the CEO of WOAW. Here's what followed: 1. Achieved our highest ever client retention 2. Ideated and launched new business verticals 3. Created even better campaigns for our clients Succeeding in business is about making bold decisions. Firing myself and hiring Fred wasn't just a bold decision. It wasn't just a good decision. It was the best decision of my entire career. Congratulations on 1-Year of Excellence Freddie Paxton. Here's to another year full of bold decisions, second-to-none execution and raising the bar for the Personal Branding Space.

Another big stuff day. I'm appreciating more than ever the joy of boundless ambition. I'm appreciating the boundless passion part even more. Birdwatch closes a $3.2 million dollar seed round because boundless passion is the lifeblood of the team. From tech, to tech to leadership. I learned more about business in the last two years than I did in my first 13 years in business. Thank you Birdwatch and to you, Chris Rosenbaum. Like an MBA. Except no books. Or study groups. (How would I know? I got my "MBA" from reading Inc. Magazine.) My brain got bigger while my focus clearer. And I brought that back home to Nest DC our business. Managing home. With care. Smaller focus. Bigger impact. Nest + the birdSEED Foundation are on my flight path. I want to do the most, with the most focus. Starting now.

𝑨𝒔 𝒘𝒆 𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒂𝒓𝒌 𝒐𝒏 𝒂 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒀𝒆𝒂𝒓, 𝒍𝒆𝒕'𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒎𝒃𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒇𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚. Referencing a story from the book “Chicken Soup for Soul”, just like the starfish washed up on the shore, many people around us are struggling – facing layoffs, tough times, and feeling lost. It's easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of people in need and wonder what difference we can possibly make. But just like the man throwing the starfish back into the ocean, every single action, every small gesture of kindness, can make a world of difference to someone else. A listening ear, a helping hand, a word of encouragement – these things may seem insignificant, but they can be the lifeline someone needs to get through a tough time. And just as one starfish makes a difference to the ocean, when we each reach out and help just one person, we start a chain reaction of positive change. 𝑺𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝑵𝒆𝒘 𝒀𝒆𝒂𝒓, 𝒍𝒆𝒕'𝒔 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒂 𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆, one starfish at a time. Let's reach out to those around us who are struggling, offer our support, and help them find their way back to the shore. Together, we can create a ripple effect of hope and happiness that will touch countless lives. #newyear #makingadifference #hope #kindness #gratitude
