Coffee & Late Fees: A Student Housing Podcast: Recent Episodes
Darlene Kristensen
5-10 minute episodes - because I know you're busy. Let's talk Student Housing... like, for real. Let's talk about the realities we hide but deal with daily. Listen while you drink your morning brew, on your commute, or when you're ordering your lunch for the day.
We work a 9-5 for someone else, but are you working on YOURSELF when you get home?
Find time for you and your passions. This looks different for each of us. BUT, it's time to find time for your joys.
I challenge you to make time for yourself this year.

A Day in The Life of Each Other.
Every person is an integral part of the operation. Deprogram yourself from thinking one person is more important than the next. We are all equally important in creating and maintaining a great community.
Let's jump into this awesome exercise!

Let's talk about financials! Is it just me or does it feel like we're alwaysworking on financials?
On today's episode, I discuss how I stay on top of financial deadlines... from dedicating time to writing down my To Do list, to recognizing my own bandwidth.
So, how do you make sure you stay sane during budget time? What's your biggest kept secret that helps you stay organized?

Be a leader - not a boss. Unless we're talking about how you're gonna be a boss while collecting that rent money!
On today's episode, I discuss how I took some feedback given about myself and have used it to listen, learn, ask for guidance, and aim to grow.
Leadership isn’t about a title, it’s about impact. So, assess and address. Listen with open ears and be the best that you can be.

It's my favorite month of the year... September! Training Month!

Control the controllables, don't get lazy. It's grind time, baby.
Let's take a moment to talk about turn 2021. The successes, the failures, and how my cleaners went from having 20 cleaners, to 12, then 10, then 2.
What was your turn like? Let's connect, visit my website and drop a note: darlenekristensen.com
It's that time of the year, when you're finally home in time for dinner... you can begin to look back and think about the wins and losses of this year's turn, and truly start to show gratitude for those team members who work so hard.
Today's episode is all about that. Post turn gratitude. Let's think outside of the box, and show our unsung heroes some gratitude.
I challenge you to do the same!
See you tomorrow, for a BONUS episode, all about the highs and lows of my team's turn.
We are 4 days away from move outs, but also less than a month away from move in!
Leasing Managers, this is your time to shine and your time to get 10s across the board!
Remember to focus on leasing in the home stretch, think outside the box, and control the controllables!
Most importantly? Remember that YOU GOT THIS.
With early move outs comes joy. Let's talk about how you can stay organized while receiving keys, as well as how you can start seeing some turn revenue before July 31st.
That's right! No bad debt here. We're charging, calling, and making some revenue.
Today, I'd like to take the time to thank the women who have inspired me. An ode to the women who have inspired me to be the best that I can be, by simply being themselves.
May we all realize we're inspiring someone, and may you walk with confidence because YOU are a leader.
Go inspire someone today!
Let's talk about what this week in student housing means! It's July, and 4th of July has come and gone. Welcome to #blackoutszn! The peace before the storm we call #turnover. I'm so excited to experience turnover this year through this podcast with you all, and even more excited for us to get to talking... without the filters!
Today's episode is just that. Tips, tricks, words of wisdom, and of course some venting.
Get your cup of coffee ready, and let's get to it!
I wish I could normalize talking to my residents about ways they could smoke marijuana without disturbing their neighbors. Do you live in a state where recreational use is legal? How do you keep the stench under control?

What's your delinquency/collection method?
