#316: What Life Insurance IS vs. What it DOES 19.12.2025

Ever listened to someone speak a foreign language you weren't familiar with? What did you get from it? Absolutely nothing. Why? Because you have no idea what they're saying. It means nothing to you, just sounds like a bunch of gobbledegook. Guess what? Insurance-ese is a language. You and I might speak it fluently, but your prospects don't. That's why you need to take a listen... Y...

#315: The Five Things Holding You Back 12.12.2025

What happened to those big dreams you had when you first came on board?

#312: The Three Phases of Your Career in Life Insurance 21.11.2025

Your business is like a person: childhood, teenage years and adulthood. All very different. When you start out as a life insurance agent, your focus is different from when you've entered phase 2 and eventually phase 3. This podcast breaks down my best interpretation of all three (even though I've never been in phase 3). I hope it helps you understand a little better about where you are cur...

#301: How to Muster up Confidence 05.09.2025

Confidence is one of those intangibles that's kind of hard to put your thumb on. You develop it with experience, but we feel it takes confidence to get started.
