278. Hilary Musser: Netflix’s Members Only Palm Beach Star on High-End Development and Real Estate, Realities of Reality TV, and Building From the Ground Up

This week, Jason is joined by luxury real estate developer, entrepreneur, and one of the standout stars of Netflix’s Members Only Palm Beach, Hilary Musser!

With more than two decades in Palm Beach, Hilary has built a powerhouse career in high-end real estate, overseeing and selling millions and millions of dollars in luxury properties and custom waterfront estates. Known for her sharp business instincts, meticulous eye for design, and a deep understanding of elite social circles, Hilary brings a unique perspective on wealth, influence, and building success on your own terms. 
Hilary opens up about why she doesn’t believe in the idea of “Palm Beach royalty,” and how she’s focused on building something entirely her own in Palm Beach in 2005. She breaks down what that process really looks like, from developer margins to the importance of exceptional taste and staying true to her brand. She also shares how she reaches her buyers, and the unexpected path that led her to working with Netflix. Hilary talks about why she has no plans to join the Real Housewives franchise, and the kinds of shows she actually enjoys. She reflects on how her son views her time on reality TV, a moment she wishes she had heard in real time, and the biggest lessons she took from the experience—especially when it comes to protecting her son and maintaining her values around love and money.
She also gets into the details of her closet, her personal rules of etiquette, her charity work, and the future goals she’s most excited about.
Hilary reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
