I took a completely different path after selling my agency when a friend asked me to come and help out with an HVAC distribution business.

I'm an employee owner and, honestly, I couldn't be happier! It's funny how there are a lot people at my job that were also in the insurance business and left for the same reasons.

It's hard to hit the reset button on employment the older you get. Hang in there!


Selling insurance as an agent is a tough gig, no doubt.


Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck.
