Two days of inspiration, networking, laughs, and a whole lot of reminders about why I love this industry! 🙌 Shout out to Insurance Agents & Brokers for knocking it out of the park with the Young Agents Conference.

One of my favorite parts? Connecting with so many amazing agents who understand the ins and outs of this business. And getting to meet so many incredible women in the industry made it even more special. There’s something really powerful about being surrounded by people who get it. We can share ideas, talk about the challenges, celebrate the wins, learn from each other, and remind one another that we’re all figuring it out as we go. (Even if we pretend we have it all together on LinkedIn. 😉)

I left with new connections, new ideas, and an even greater appreciation for the community we have in this industry. Insurance may be what brings us together, but the people are what make it special.

Already looking forward to the next one! 🥂

Some weeks in insurance are less about selling insurance and more about putting out fires. (No pun intended… okay, maybe a little.)

This week has been one of those weeks.

Billing issues. Claims questions. Audit disputes. Coverage questions. Dealing with other carriers and agencies.

And honestly? This is exactly why having an insurance agent you trust matters.

When something goes wrong, you shouldn’t have to spend your lunch break sitting on hold, trying to figure out who to call or what questions to ask. That’s where we come in. As an independent agency, we work for you. We make the phone calls. We track down answers. We talk to the right people. We explain what’s happening in plain English. And when something doesn’t seem right, we go to bat for you.

Insurance can be complicated enough. Having someone in your corner who knows your coverage, knows your situation, and is willing to get you the answers and help can make all the difference.

So when choosing an insurance agent, don’t just ask, “Who has the cheapest price?”

Ask yourself:
“Who do I want in my corner when I actually need them?”

Because when the proverbial house is on fire…
you want someone who knows where the fire extinguisher is. 🔥

Hi, I'm Kat 👋

I'm a third-generation insurance agent, born and raised right here in our community. Insurance has been a part of my family's life for decades, and I get to continue the tradition by helping protect the people and business where I grew up.

People always ask me "So, what exactly do you do?"

Well ... I don't just sell insurance. I help people prepare for the "I never thought that would happen to me" moments. The house fire, car accident, tree through the roof, dog decides the couch is an enemy. Life has a funny way of keeping us on our toes.

My job is to make sure those surprises don't become financial disasters.

You'll notice our logo is a football helmet, and that's not by accident. My dad, Rich, spent most of his life on the football field - first as a player and then as a coach. Football taught him the importance of preparation, teamwork, and protection. That's exactly what inspired me when creating our logo.

Just like a football helmet is there to protect you when life delivers a hard hit, insurance is there to help protect you when the unexpected happens. You hope you never need either one -but when you do, you're grateful it's there.

At the Burkett Agency, we believe insurance isn't about selling policies. It's about building relationships, answering questions, and making sure you're protected before life throws you a curveball.

If you're already part of our agency family, thank you for trusting us. If you're new here, welcome! I'd love the opportunity to get to know you and help you protect what matters most.

Because protection isn't just our business - it's our tradition🏈

Happy Fourth of July! ❤️🤍💙

As you celebrate Independence Day with family, friends, and fireworks, we hope you have a fun, relaxing, and safe holiday weekend!

With the extreme heat in our area, please remember to:
☀️ Stay hydrated and take breaks in the shade or air conditioning.
🐾 Keep pets indoors as much as possible, provide plenty of fresh water, and never leave children or pets in a parked vehicle—even for a minute.
🚗 Before traveling, make sure your vehicle is in good condition, especially your tires and coolant, and pack water in case of an emergency.

A few additional holiday safety reminders:
🎆 Leave fireworks to the professionals whenever possible, and keep a bucket of water or hose nearby if using legal consumer fireworks.
🔥 Never leave grills, fire pits, or bonfires unattended, and keep them a safe distance from your home, deck, and other structures.
🏡 Heading out for the weekend? Lock all doors and windows, set lights on timers if possible, and ask a trusted neighbor to keep an eye on your home.
🚙 If you're celebrating with family and friends, always buckle up, avoid distracted driving, and designate a sober driver if alcohol is part of your plans. Uber exists for a reason.

Please note: Our office will be closed Friday, July 3rd, in observance of Independence Day. We will reopen during our normal business hours on Monday.

From our family at Richard Burkett Agency, we wish you a safe, cool, and memorable Fourth of July! Thank you for allowing us to help protect what matters most. Happy 250 and God Bless America!🇺🇸✨

When was the last time you reviewed your insurance policies?

Many financial experts and influencers regularly talk about reviewing your insurance coverage at least once a year, and for good reason. Life changes, property values change, discounts change, and insurance companies adjust their rates and underwriting guidelines.

A policy that was the best fit for you last year may not be the best fit today.

At the Burkett Agency, we believe insurance isn't a "set it and forget it" purchase. That's why we conduct annual policy reviews with our clients to help ensure:

✅ Your coverage still matches your needs
✅ You're taking advantage of available discounts
✅ You're not paying for coverage you no longer need
✅ You have protection against today's rising replacement and repair costs
✅ You're receiving the most competitive premium available

Our goal is simple: keep you properly protected while helping you save money whenever possible.

If it's been more than a year since your last insurance review, now is the perfect time to take a fresh look at your policies.

With the big brand change of Safeco officially becoming Liberty Mutual - our rep graciously dropped off some new LM swag. Layla instantly locked eyes on the LiMu Emu and thought it was for her. She's been carrying it around nonstop. She's really taking the insurance role seriously! 😄🐾

✔️ Review your home insurance to make sure your coverage still fits your current needs
✔️ Take a look at your auto policy—are you getting the best value and protection?

That’s where working with a local, independent agent makes all the difference. You get:
✨ Personalized guidance
✨ Access to multiple carriers
✨ Coverage tailored specifically to YOU—not a one-size-fits-all policy

Let’s do a quick policy checkup and make sure everything is as fresh and protected as your spring-cleaned home 🏡
