Rising Star of March 2025: Daphne Gaspard

Every month, Acadiana Real Producers highlights the agents who are shaping the future of real estate in our region—those who lead with heart, hustle, and a commitment to serving their clients well. For March 2025, we’re proud to spotlight a woman whose steady rise is fueled by authenticity, grit, and a deep belief in what’s possible: Daphne Gaspard, our newest Rising Star.

A Nomination That Means More Than a Title

For Daphne, being nominated wasn’t just exciting—it was grounding.“It’s so awesome to be nominated,” she shared. “It means someone thinks I’m doing something right.”

In an industry where the pace is fast and the expectations are high, that recognition matters. It’s a reminder that the long days, the late‑night calls, the problem‑solving, and the unwavering dedication to her clients are making an impact. Someone noticed. Someone believed in her. And that belief fuels her even more.

Cutting Through the Noise

Real estate is full of opinions—online, in conversations, and everywhere in between. Daphne has learned to navigate that noise with clarity and confidence, and she encourages her clients to do the same.

Her advice is simple, but it’s the kind of wisdom that comes from experience: “Don’t believe everything you hear or read.”

The truth is, the path to homeownership isn’t as intimidating as it can sometimes seem. Markets shift, headlines change, and myths spread quickly. But Daphne knows that with the right guidance, the dream is still within reach.

The Power of the Right Team

Daphne believes wholeheartedly in the value of having strong support behind you—both as an agent and as a buyer.

“You just need a good REALTOR and broker in your pocket to make buying a home a reality,” she says.

At Lana Soileau & Associates, powered by Real Broker, Daphne has found that support. She’s surrounded by leaders who champion her growth, colleagues who collaborate generously, and a brokerage that empowers her to serve her clients with excellence.

That combination—skill, support, and heart—is exactly what makes her a Rising Star.

A Future as Bright as Her Drive

Daphne’s story is still being written, but one thing is clear: she’s just getting started. Her passion for helping families plant roots, her commitment to learning, and her genuine care for the people she serves are shaping a career that’s built to last.

Acadiana is full of talent, but there’s something special about the agents who rise by lifting others. Daphne is one of them.

Congratulations to our March 2025 Rising Star, Daphne Gaspard. We can’t wait to see what you do next.
