Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with Pamela Goodmansen Real Estate Agent, BA, MCNE of Phoenix- East Valley

Pamela Goodmansen Real Estate Agent, BA, MCNE shared her story and experiences with us recently and you can find our conversation below.

Hi Pamela, thank you for taking the time to reflect back on your journey with us. I think our readers are in for a real treat. There is so much we can all learn from each other and so thank you again for opening up with us. Let’s get into it: What’s more important to you—intelligence, energy, or integrity?

Integrity is of highest importance to me. I believe it is important to be someone that others can believe in, trust and depend on.

Intelligence and energy come in together at second place because you need to be on top of your game and understand the market, plus, energy is the boost that makes you run as fast as possible to get important things done.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?

I have been a real estate agent for 25 years. It has been an incredible time to help people make their dreams come true.

It is so exciting to watch people sell their homes and be able to move in a whole new direction. It is also exciting to watch people buy their dream home!

Over the years, I have always tried to give service above and beyond. For many years, I gave away a free cruise whenever someone would buy a home. In recent years, the vacation packages became more difficult to purchase, so I changed my focus to a program that helps people receive $500- $1000 passive income monthly with very little effort.

I decided to share this program with my clients once my husband made $12,000 passive income. Now that he has made over $20,000 with the program, I share this program with anyone I feel that it can help. Times have been challenging for so many people and I love sharing something that can really be of benefit for them. The program is as simple as filling out a loan application for a car or home. It is not an MLM or anything complicated.

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What relationship most shaped how you see yourself?

My dad has been the biggest influence in my life. He has been my hero ever since I was a little girl. He has the biggest heart and wants to help everyone around him. He was a clinical psychologist for many years. He helped thousands of patients and I saw the gratitude from so many people for his kind work.

It was because of his example that I graduated from college with a Bachelor’s in psychology. In college, I was a student body officer and helped organize a group called “Cherubim”. The focus was to meet with teachers and get lists of students that were depressed or felt lonely. We would assign people to do special anonymous service to help these students know that they were important and cared for.

What did suffering teach you that success never could?

As a child, I suffered from asthma at a very young age. I was in and out of the hospital constantly. By the time I was 16, I was near death and my parents sent me to live at the national asthma hospital in Denver, Colorado. It was called CARIH (Children’s Asthma Research Institute and Hospital).

When I arrived at CARIH, I weighed 65 pounds. The doctors put me on 14 pills a day, including steroids to get my asthma under control. I lived in a dorm type situation with 3 roommates. There were a total of 16 teenage girls, my age. I learned quickly that you had to stick up for yourself.

There was one girl who hated me because I was petite. She would constantly try to start a fight and one time I hit her back and knocked her down. For some crazy reason, that made all of the other girls in the facility “respect” me.

Seven months later, I was able to return home after gaining 30 pounds. I was still petite, at 95 pounds, but much more healthy. The girl that had given me such a hard time when I first arrived at CARIH wrote me a letter and thanked me. She told me that she had learned a lot from me. I appreciated that letter so very much.

Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. What would your closest friends say really matters to you?

I truly care about others. I love to lift people up to see the joy in their lives. In this crazy world, people are so sad about so many things going on in society so I try to point out the positive. I want them to know how much I care about them. I try to find things that can bless them in their life, whether it be something to improve their health or something that is really important to them. I want people to see how great they are and what a blessing they are in my life.

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?

During the past 15 years, I have done a lot of service for the community. I donated countless hours encouraging people. I formed a group in 2010 to educate others about this great country that we live in.

The group started small with about 30 people. We would meet once a week for a couple hours and have speakers from the community. When the group grew to 300-500 people attending weekly meetings, I encouraged others to form their own groups. We had over 5000 people on our website.

I ended up being a state director and worked with about 90 groups across Arizona,. My main focus became training the leaders and giving them opportunities to make their group stronger.

I remained a full-time real estate agent during this time because that was my income. I am so grateful for the many wonderful people I have met on my journey.
