On a recent episode of The Latina Network Podcast, host Abby Torres sat down with Rosie Gonzalez, Brookfield’s top real estate broker. What emerged was far more than a business success story: it was a powerful testimony of faith, resilience, and the kind of determination that turns struggle into purpose.
Rosie’s journey into real estate didn’t begin with a grand plan; it began in what she calls “a desperate moment.” Faced with uncertainty, she decided to sell her own home. That one decision changed everything. “I sold my house,” she recalls, “and immediately got busy right away.” What started as a necessity quickly became a calling.
From those early days to becoming the number one broker in her market, Rosie’s path has been marked by grit and grace. Her ascent wasn’t fueled by shortcuts or luck — it was built through study, consistency, and an unwavering belief that God was guiding her steps. Within just three years, her commitment to learning and serving clients catapulted her to the top of her field.
Yet, Rosie’s definition of success extends beyond the transaction. “I’m friends with all of my clients,” she says with conviction. Her approach is deeply relational — built on trust, authenticity, and a genuine desire to serve. It’s this humanity in business that has become her brand.
Through her questions, Abby draws out lessons that resonate beyond real estate. Their conversation becomes a reflection on what it truly means to succeed — not just professionally, but personally. For Rosie, that means finding balance between her thriving career and her most important role: being a mother.
She speaks openly about the constant tension between ambition and responsibility — and the peace that comes from surrendering it all to God’s plan. “I’ve learned to delegate, to trust others, and most of all, to trust Him,” she shares. “God always has a plan… I’m a warrior.”
Abby’s gift as a host is her ability to let faith and vulnerability coexist in the same sentence. Together, she and Rosie reveal a truth that applies to every industry and every dreamer: success is not a straight line — it’s a series of leaps made in faith.
In the end, their dialogue leaves listeners with more than inspiration; it offers a blueprint. Work hard. Keep learning. Value people. Trust God’s timing.
Rosie Gonzalez’s story is proof that even in life’s most uncertain moments, there’s opportunity waiting — if you’re willing to believe, act, and persevere.
