The Insurance Buzz

“No one is coming to save you. You’re the one kicking through walls, making shit happen.” Michael Weaver
What’s in this episode:
If you’re waiting for someone to fix your business or hand you success—stop. In this episode, we sit down with Erin Kirk to get real about what it actually takes to lead in today’s insurance game. We talk hiring red flags, how to recruit the right people, why energy and culture matter more than ever, and the mindset shift that separates the top 1% from everyone else. This is for the agents who are tired of waiting, ready to pivot, and serious about building something that lasts. No fluff—just what works.
