So, if you feel like you're stuck somewhere, there's light at the end of the tunnel, things could change tomorrow, and something great could come about.” - Kim Beach “We have the consumers and then we have the female agents that were trying to really create a community. I mean, as far as I can tell, there's not a national community of female agents. So, InsureWomen would love to be that community, where we can come together with best practices and that kind of thing.” - Kim Beach “I'm older, but I'm doing new things every day that I never thought I would be doing because of this. And it's exciting to me, like, my whole world is different and that can happen to anybody. I just think you have to be ready for that to happen, kind of be looking for that opportunity that could change what you're doing.” - Kim Beach Resources Mentioned: Kim Beach LinkedIn InsureWoSmen June 2021 Rough Notes Article IBA Elite Women 2021 Award Contact Teresa Kitchens Sterling Insurance Group
