Every meeting is an opportunity to build authentic connections, gain fresh perspective, and leave with a clear action step to implement before the next session.

Confidence Lab: Self-Awareness, the Foundation of Confidence

**An honest conversation about the lifelong practice of knowing yourself, and showing up as yourself.** Over the past three months, Confidence Lab has explored a simple but powerful idea: confidence begins with seeing ourselves clearly. Self-awareness isn't something we achieve once, it's a lifelong practice. As we become more aware of our strengths, patterns, values, and blind spots, we gain the ability to make choices that are more intentional, more aligned, and more authentic. Join us as we wrap up our first quarterly theme, **Seeing Clearly**, with an engaging conversation about what it really takes to continue growing in self-awareness over time. **Description** What does it mean to know yourself? Not just in theory, but in the middle of everyday life? In this special fireside conversation, we'll sit down with community builder, storyteller, and Columbus influencer **Jeannette Burchfield** to explore her personal journey of self-awareness. Together, we'll discuss the experiences, relationships, feedback, and daily practices that have helped her become more grounded in who she is and how that ongoing work has shaped the way she lives, leads, and connects with others. This won't be a conversation about having it all figured out. It's about embracing self-awareness as an ongoing practice: learning to see ourselves honestly, staying aligned with our values, and growing through every season of life. Whether you've attended every Confidence Lab event or are joining us for the first time, you'll leave with practical insights, thoughtful reflection, and a deeper appreciation for why self-awareness is the foundation of lasting confidence. We'll also take a first look at our next quarterly theme, **Confidence in Relationship**, and explore how the work we do within ourselves shapes what becomes possible with others. **Featuring** **Jeannette Burchfield** is a Columbus-based community builder, storyteller, and social media influencer known for celebrating creativity, connection, and local culture. As the Social Media Coordinator for Opera Columbus and the creator behind Confetti Craft Club, Jeannette has built an engaged online community by encouraging people to embrace joy, express themselves authentically, and discover the vibrant experiences their city has to offer. Known for her colorful style, infectious enthusiasm, and genuine love for bringing people together, Jeannette believes confidence isn't about fitting into someone else's expectations, it's about becoming more fully yourself. Through storytelling, creativity, and community, she inspires others to live with curiosity, authenticity, and a little more confetti. [https://www.instagram.com/jeannetteyconfettii/](https://www.instagram.com/jeannetteyconfettii/) **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully, you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction, but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to live with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome!

How to Build a 6-Figure Real Estate Business Helping Sellers in Foreclosure

**[Note: Registering here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To reserve your seat, please register on our website, [HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=IN-COLUMBUS-How-to-Build-a-6-Figure-Real-Estate-Business-Helping-Sellers-in-Foreclosure-14-8-15-2026).]** Most investors think foreclosure opportunities begin at the auction. The truth is, by then, many of the best opportunities have already passed. The real opportunity is in **pre-foreclosure**, when homeowners still have options, investors can actually see the property before buying it, and everyone has a chance to create a solution that benefits both the seller and the investor. And that’s becoming more important than ever. As more homeowners struggle with rising housing costs and financial pressure, investors who understand pre-foreclosures will have opportunities that simply aren’t available once a property reaches the auction or becomes bank-owned. But succeeding in pre-foreclosures takes more than sending postcards or making offers. You need to understand what homeowners are experiencing, how to communicate with them, and how to structure deals that truly solve their problems. That’s exactly what Dwan & Bill Twyford will teach during this intensive two-day workshop. With more than **80 years of combined real estate investing experience**, they’ve built successful businesses by helping homeowners in pre-foreclosure while creating profitable deals through subject-to investing, short sales, creative financing, and other proven strategies. **During this two-day workshop, you’ll learn:** • How to successfully market to homeowners in pre-foreclosure • What to say when you first talk with sellers—including real-world conversation scripts • Strategies for working with sellers who have substantial equity • How to negotiate profitable short sales when little or no equity exists • Subject-To investing and other creative financing techniques • Multiple exit strategies for pre-foreclosure deals • How to build a business that consistently generates leads instead of constantly chasing them Whether you’re buying your first investment property or building a full-time investing business, you’ll leave with practical systems and strategies you can begin using immediately. 📅 **August 15–16, 2026** 📍**Attend in person in Columbus, Ohio** — Register **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=IN-COLUMBUS-How-to-Build-a-6-Figure-Real-Estate-Business-Helping-Sellers-in-Foreclosure-14-8-15-2026)** 💻 **Attend virtually from anywhere** — Register **[HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Online-Meeting-How-to-Build-a-6-Figure-Real-Estate-Business-Helping-Sellers-in-Foreclosure-14-8-15-2026)** One of the biggest benefits of attending in person isn’t just the education—it’s the people you’ll meet. Your next lender, buyer, contractor, mentor, private lender, or business partner could be sitting in the room with you. **Express Success members attend FREE with their member coupon code.** **[Again, registering here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat.

COREE Central Ohio Chapter Meeting Your Foreclosure Deal Machine

**[Note: Registering here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat. To do that, you need to go to our website, [HERE](https://www.coreerocks.com/Events.aspx?ID=Columbus-Chapter-Meeting-Your-Foreclosure-Deal-Machine-14-8-4-2026).]** We’re the Columbus area’s biggest and longest-running real estate community for a reason: month after month, since 2011, we’ve been connecting you to the people and information you need start or grow your own real estate investing business. This month, we’re doing that by focusing on one of the hottest opportunities in the market today: foreclosures. Most investors think foreclosure opportunities begin at the sheriff's sale. The truth is, most of the best deals are long gone by then. Investors who consistently buy profitable properties understand something many others don't: the foreclosure process creates opportunities long before the auction ever happens. If you know where homeowners are in the process—and how to approach them—you can help solve their problems while building a stronger investing business. That matters more than ever today. With more homeowners struggling under higher payments and rising living costs, the number of distressed sellers is growing. The investors who understand this market will have more opportunities than those waiting for bank-owned properties to hit the MLS. At this month's meeting, we'll show you how to find those opportunities, and what to do with them once you’ll find them You’ll get practical advice about: * How the foreclosure process in Ohio even works, and where you can jump in as an investor, and how * Finding motivated sellers before the competition * Approaching homeowners with confidence and compassion * Overcoming common objections * Building a steady pipeline of foreclosure opportunities Whether you're looking for your first deal or your next fifty, you'll leave with practical ideas you can begin putting to work immediately. And don't overlook one of the biggest benefits of every COREE meeting: the other people in the room. Your next lender, buyer, contractor, mentor, or business partner could be sitting at your table. **[Again, registering here on Meetup does NOT reserve your seat.
