One of the things I love most about what I do is the people I have the privilege of meeting along the way.
As an insurance advisor, I may start out helping someone navigate Medicare or find the right coverage, but over the years, those professional relationships often become so much more. I get to know their families, hear stories about their beloved pets, learn about the trips they’re planning, celebrate their successes, and sometimes walk alongside them through illnesses, challenges, and successful recoveries.
And as much as I love what I do, there is one part of my career that will always be the hardest…
Saying goodbye to my dear clients when they pass away.
Today, I experienced more loss than usual, and it has left me reflecting on just how grateful I am to have known these wonderful people. I don’t take for granted the trust they placed in me or the pieces of their lives they shared with me.
We sometimes think of our work in terms of appointments, paperwork, policies and plans. But behind every appointment is a person with a story, a family, dreams, struggles, memories and people who love them.
I am incredibly thankful that my career has allowed me to know so many of those stories.
Today is a reminder to reach out to someone you love. Call a friend. Send a text. Give someone a hug. Tell them how much they mean to you.
We don’t know how much time we have with the people we love.
We all have an expiration date somewhere in our future. What matters is what we do with the time we have before then.
Today, I am choosing gratitude—for the clients I’ve had the privilege to serve, the relationships I’ve built, and the lives that have touched mine.
Thank you to every client who has trusted me with a small part of your journey. ❤️
