    One of Real Estate's Most Influential Voices Just Made a Bold Move. Here's Why.

    Vija Williams isn't just a successful agent. She's an industry institution. Over 20+ years, she's built a resume that spans production, coaching, media, and executive leadership. When someone with that profile makes a move, it's not just career news. It's a signal about where the industry is heading.

    Vija Williams Credentials

    Head of Industry at PLACE

    Owner of Vija Real Estate (Seattle)

    Coach with Cheplak Live Coaching

    Co-founder of She Inc.

    Former co-host of Empire Building podcast (600,000+ downloads)

    Trainer reaching 250,000+ viewers since 2020

    More Than a Move—A Mission

    "This is more than a move, it's a mission."— Vija Williams

    Williams is partnering with eXp powerhouse Spring Bengtzen to build UPGRADE—a full-spectrum platform designed to elevate agents, team leaders, and brokerage owners in all areas of life.

    What UPGRADE Means

    UPGRADE stands for: Unlock Potential, Grow Real Estate, And Design Everything. It covers:

    Health • Wealth • Business • Investing
    Personal growth • Lifestyle • Leadership

    This isn't a coaching program. It's an ecosystem.

    What This Means for Agents

    Most brokerages teach you how to sell houses. UPGRADE teaches you how to build a life.

    Beyond Production

    For agents who feel like they've hit a ceiling—not in production, but in fulfillment—this is the kind of resource that changes trajectories.
