Fay Lin Real Estate

A couple of weeks ago, I came across a LinkedIn post from Ronan Deane about his participation in the Sleep Out: Executive Edition supporting Covenant House Vancouver. I commented at the time, feeling inspired by his commitment.

Fast forward to Thursday and I ended up meeting Ronan in person at the December Business Breakfast hosted by the Consulate General of Ireland, Vancouver. Such a small world!

Ronan delivered an insightful talk on work, sport, and Irish identity, weaving leadership, community, and culture together in a way that really resonated.

It’s always powerful to see people leading both professionally and through meaningful causes. His participation in November’s Sleep Out is a reminder of the impact we can make when we show up.

I’ll be taking part in the February 2026 Sleep Out myself, and meeting Ronan added an extra layer of motivation and connection to that journey.

(And yes, I did show up in a holiday pie outfit 🥧. Bringing a little extra seasonal cheer never hurts!)

Grateful for this community and for the moments when online inspiration turns into real-life connection.

One of the most rewarding parts of my work is seeing client relationships grow into meaningful connections. This year, I had the joy of helping Sabrina purchase her new home, and our journey continued well beyond the keys.

Sabrina, an expressive arts therapist and creative coach, later invited me to a beautiful night at the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, and recently joined my Holiday Pie Party (where someone guessed I was dressed as a pepperoni pizza… still not over it 😂🍕🥧).

I was also lucky to win six one-on-one creative coaching sessions with her, and I’m truly excited to start this journey in the new year. Her work at Firepot Expressive Arts supports people in reconnecting with creativity, self-expression, and emotional grounding - something I know many of us could use more of.

If anyone is looking to explore expressive arts therapy or creative coaching, I highly recommend checking out her work at Firepot Expressive Arts.

Grateful for clients who become collaborators, for community that continues to grow, and for opportunities to keep learning and expanding in 2026. ✨

Yesterday’s 300th episode celebration of the Podcast was such an inspiring midday boost. ✨

Huge congratulations to .uy and reaching this milestone. Your leadership, vision, and consistency have built something truly meaningful for all of us, and continue to push our community to grow with intention and heart.

It was also a great opportunity to mingle with so many fellow Oakwyn Realty agents. I always leave these gatherings feeling energized and grateful to be part of such a supportive and driven community.

A big thank you to for providing the stunning venue. The space was beautiful and the cake was very delicious! 🎂

Here’s to 300 episodes, and many more conversations that elevate our industry ❤️
