In this inspiring episode of Women Influencers, I speak with John Crossman, CCIM, a well-known commercial real estate expert, philanthropist, and advocate for social change. John shares his unique journey from growing up in a working-class family with civil rights leaders as parents to becoming a successful real estate professional and educator. His commitment to supporting historically black colleges, women's empowerment, and mental health awareness is deeply rooted in his upbringing and experiences.

John discusses the impact of his parents' activism, the importance of diversity in real estate, and his personal passion for bridging gaps in education and opportunity. He emphasizes the power of mentorship and advocates for both men and women in leadership roles to create safe spaces and empower marginalized groups.

Throughout the episode, John stressed the significance of making meaningful contributions through personal sacrifice, like supporting scholarships for women and minorities, and cherishing deep, positive relationships. His advice is grounded in making a real impact in the world by focusing on what truly matters.

“Sacrifice to Make Impact.” – John Crossman
