  • Grateful

    I listen to the podcast regularly. I have only been in insurance for 3 years and had no prior knowledge. I was given keys to an office with a very small book of business. You all have been my saving grace. I have learned so much. Thank you for offering your time and guidance.

  • Great Podcast

    Michael and Courtney are beasts. They have the Meidas Touch - everything they touch turns into gold. I’m honored to know them and I promise you they are giving you the best knowledge there is on insurance. They don’t gate-keep knowledge and wisdom like other podcasters out there. They give it you real and honest, whether you like it or not, and they say the things that needs to be said. Not for fame or money, but to genuinely help out your insurance business.
