Michelle Leung: Building Community Through Leadership and Passion

Michelle Leung: Building Community Through Leadership and Passion

Author: Veronica Malolos, CCIM January 24, 2025 Duration: 18:42

In the latest episode of Women Influencers, I welcomed Michelle Leung, CCIM, an executive coach, nonprofit founder, and commercial real estate expert, to discuss her remarkable journey from Hong Kong to Canada and her passion for creating meaningful connections.

Michelle recounts her upbringing as an only child in Hong Kong and her pivotal decision to move to Canada in 1995 for her education. After starting her career in marketing, she transitioned into commercial real estate, leveraging her international connections to build a successful brokerage. Achieving her CCIM designation in 2019 was a defining moment, enhancing her ability to serve clients and growing her business to include 12 agents.

Beyond real estate, Michelle channels her leadership into coaching and philanthropy. Her nonprofit, iCherish Foundation, focuses on filling community needs with joy, organizing events like soccer tournaments that unite people for good causes. Michelle also recently served as president of her local CCIM chapter, doubling membership and promoting community engagement. 

Michelle's proudest moments include her foundation’s impactful fundraising efforts and her influence as an executive coach, helping clients and women overcome challenges with empathy and resilience.

“Be yourself and do well” - Michelle Leung, CCIM

Hosted by Veronica Malolos, CCIM-Founder and CEO of Capital Stack Real Estate Group-the Women Influencers podcast moves beyond surface-level success stories to explore the nuanced realities of leadership, ambition, and personal philosophy. Each conversation delves into the practical strategies and formative experiences of women who have shaped their fields, with a particular lens on business and commercial real estate. These are not just interviews; they are deep dives into the decisions, setbacks, and pivotal moments that define a career. Veronica’s background as an operator in the Greater Orlando market informs a grounded, insightful dialogue that resonates whether you’re building a company, navigating a corporate ladder, or redefining your own path. The discussions naturally span categories from concrete business tactics to broader cultural and societal themes, reflecting the multifaceted lives these influencers lead. This podcast serves as a resource for anyone seeking authentic perspective, emphasizing that influence is cultivated through resilience and insight as much as through achievement. Listen for candid reflections on balancing ambition with life’s other demands, the philosophical underpinnings of a leadership style, and the often-unspoken challenges of carving out space in competitive industries. It’s a series dedicated to amplifying voices that not only succeed but also thoughtfully pave the way for others.
