Group Home on Autopilot — The Story of Katrina Robinson

In this episode, I interview Katrina Robinson, CEO of Round Table Living, a real estate venture providing affordable, all-inclusive living environments to people in need. Katrina shares her journey from the military to fashion school in Los Angeles, and how she put her first real estate venture on hold to raise her nieces. We explore her pivot to providing affordable housing through the group home business model, the challenges and solutions she's discovered, and her insights on managing a successful group home on autopilot. Spaces discussed include drilling down into the systems and processes necessary for managing group homes effectively and expanding nationwide.
