I am honored to walk beside you as you write the next chapter of your story

Hi, I’m Barbie Armenta—an author, speaker, coach, and now, a licensed real estate agent. For years, I’ve had the honor of helping people transform their lives and step into their purpose, whether through my leadership with Brave:1, my coaching, or my personal journey of faith and restoration.

After two divorces, I once believed it was too late to have the life I dreamed of—until God showed me otherwise. Today, I’m married to the man of my dreams, Richard, and we have a beautiful, blended family of 14. Our favorite moments are the big family dinners where love, laughter, and memories are shared around the table. Richard and I even wrote a book, The Right Combination – Finding Love and Life After Divorce, to share our story and offer hope to others.

With over 30 years in the beauty industry and a decade as a coach, I’ve always been passionate about elevating lives—whether through personal growth, relationships, or business. Now, as a partner with Magnolia Realty, I’m blending my skills in client care, communication, and understanding people’s unique journeys to help them find homes where they can create their own lasting memories.

At Magnolia Realty, we believe in the power of home. Whether you’re buying or selling, I am here to guide you through the process with compassion and expertise. It’s never too late for a fresh start, and I’m excited to walk alongside you on this new chapter of your journey. Let’s find the home that’s just as special as you are.

Hi,

I’m Barbie Armenta

I am an author, speaker, coach, and the founder/visionary of Brave:1

I believed after 2 divorces that it was too late for me to have and be all that God had for me, and that He could no longer bless me with all the things that I longed for….

“This book really sparked my interest. It was a great read- I couldn’t put it down, and was sad when it was over! I loved the Bible verses and the combination of fiction and workbook. I was amazed by their faith, their patience, and their willingness to put God first.” Patricia
