Jamie Mendelsohn of the Ashar Group joins us to discuss a little-known concept relating to your life insurance policy. Many people unable to continue to make payments toward their life insurance policy simply walk away from the policy. However, they need to realize there are buyers for that policy and that they can sell their existing policy. Jamie explains all the benefits of knowing the value of your life insurance policy and how easy it is to learn about this simple process. This episode of Beyond the Balance Sheet is an eye-opener. So, grab your pen and take some notes.    IN THIS EPISODE:   [01:35] Jamie explains how Ashar Group works with policy owners  [03:01] There is a secondary market that will value life insurance policies that an individual wants to relinquish [5:00] Large institutions etc., purchase policies. Guaranteed universal life products are a very attractive purchase  [06:44] Jamie discusses repurposing life insurance policies, and she gives statistics on the loss of capital because people are not aware of this concept [12:20] Valuing life insurance policies and how they fit into overall financial planning [15:47] Jamie tells about a family who monetized the mother's life insurance policy to fund her care    KEY TAKEAWAYS:   People have walked away from their life insurance policies because they couldn't afford the premiums. However, the policy has value, and a market exists for these policies. Ashar Group does not write life insurance policies; however, they do place a value on them, and this process only takes about two days. A universal life policy is the most valuable and attractive to buyers of life insurance policies.   RESOURCES:   Beyond the Balance Sheet Website   Ashar Group - Facebook   Ashar Group - Website   Jamie L.

In addition, she spends much time educating the financial services community at conferences, estate planning councils, and wealth management firms nationwide.     Jamie earned her bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Florida, where she was an Alpha Delta Pi sorority member.

To be the best, you have to put in the work. Our guest today, Brooke Kennedy, is a firm believer in this. Brooke is a master esthetician and the renowned Suite B Lounge owner. Today, she discusses how her prior experiences before entering the beauty industry equipped her with customer service, sales, customer relations, multitasking, and other life skills that she puts into her business. She talks about her journey into esthetics and how she started her practice immediately after finishing school. She gives tips for starting your own business, how Yelp, Google, and referrals helped build her business, and how continuing education helps you be the best in the industry. For those desiring a similar schedule, she shares how she manages a 12-hour business schedule, the personal decisions that make it work, and the importance of the critical ingredients of planning, support, and time management. She also gives advice to estheticians who desire a 12-hour workday and how she can do this in a way that her team members love their work-life and remain motivated. Brooke's Bio Brooke Kennedy is more than just a fresh-faced beauty queen from Sequim, WA; she's got ambition and brains and a profound passion for the health and wellbeing of people and the environment. She learned much of her adult regimens and character qualities from her mother, who taught her from a young age the importance of skin care, and from her father, who owned a restaurant and demonstrated hard work and excellent customer service. After attending the University of Washington, where Brooke studied molecular cell biology, dance, and French, and was an active member of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority, she decided that medical school was not going to be her path, and she began to pursue other avenues while supporting herself in the food and beverage industry. Along the way, she also spent time in the electrical industry developing business and sales, and working in project management. In 2012 Brooke graduated from the Euro Institute of Skin Care and opened Bliss by Brooke Skin Care in 2013 in a 7 ½' x 8 ½' made-over closet of a hair salon. Since then she has continuously improved her knowledge base and skill set as an aesthetician by completing courses in advanced skin analysis (with Florence Barrett-Hill of Pastiche) and acquiring an oncology esthetic certificate, which is a personal passion for Brooke. Skin care, for Brooke, feels like a perfect combination of serving others, creating a memorable guest experience, and using the latest scientific advancements. She works hard and believes that life is too short not to love what you do!

She loves hiking, yoga, making carpool karaoke videos with her two daughters, cheering on her marathon running husband, and working from home with no makeup and a messy bun. She wrote a blog post that turned into a book, that turned into a speaking platform that has launched into a podcast and opened up more doors than she ever thought possible. She also spent 15 years in advertising. All this marketing experience gave her a front-row seat to the $100 million dollar power of influence sorority women have over trends. She believe it to her bones, Sorority Girls can Change the World. In episode number 169 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why she chose Georgia Southern University, what was special about the members of Alpha Delta Pi, how much power sorority members have over trends, what she learned from her friend Elaine who quit high school when she was 17, examples on how can sorority members can make a global impact and literally change lives, how sorority women should set a higher standard in dating, how sisters can better support each other and their dreams, what discussions she is having on the "Truth For Your Twenties Podcast", what she usually talks about in mentoring sessions with students, and Katie's faith in God.

In this episode of the Social Lights Podcast, podcast host and Social Mediology founder Kate vanderVoort chats with Kara Cronin, community manager, relationship builder and renowned public speaker. Kara is the Community Manager of Community Partnerships at Facebook and is leading the community experience for the Facebook Certified Community Manager program. About Kara Kara has been building community since the age of 6. She fell in love with community building while working as a Sorority Leadership Consultant, and continued pursuing her passion while leading communities at theSkimm and Shine.

Kara has been a keynote speaker at the CMX Summit and SocialFresh conferences, a panellist at Be Social Change and Dreamers / Doers, a facilitator for Alpha Delta Pi and LeaderShape, as well as a mentor for FindSpark and Get Sh!t Done Accelerator programs. BIG IDEA 1 “We're in an age of authenticity where people are really supporting the brands and organisations, that customers not only believe in, but are really aligned with, whether it's based on their values or the organisations that they support.” (12:33) Kara says there are so many opportunities for brands and organizations right now to create communities that it's hard to pick just a couple to talk about. She says we're in an age of authenticity where people are really supporting the brands and organisations, that customers not only believe in, but are really aligned with whether it's based on their values or the organizations that they support. It feels different than it did even five - ten years ago in terms of people aren't just buying the big brand anymore, they're buying from the people that really feel authentic and that they feel connected to. She says community, especially a digital community, can just be such an amazing tool to showcase that authenticity, to connect with your consumer and community on a regular basis in a way that's real.  BIG IDEA 2 “Connecting the community members with each other is the most important thing.” (21:13) On the topic of learning how to become a community manager, Kara says connecting community members with each other is the most important thing, especially in a learning group. Because social learning is so important, that peer support, is essential for community managers. To be able to give them a community and provide them with people who get it and can help them along the way, to help them feel supported and help them learn. She says that's why the Facebook Community Manager Certification Learning Group has learning mentors who support the learners in this group. They're there to share personal experiences, host study sessions and answer questions to make sure that people feel like they have someone behind them cheering them on. She says that because not anyone can get certified, to know that not only are you putting in the work, but you have this group of people behind you that really want to see you succeed is important. So, the Facebook Community Manager Certification Learning Group has the learning mentor program set up to help with that. Everything is organised. So if people want to go in and learn at their own pace, they can go through the guides and get directed to all the learning materials very easily.  BIG IDEA 3 “Know why you're starting

"What was the hardest part about being out in a sorority?" "Did ever feel you were just used as a face of acceptance and inclusion for a place that wasn't that?" "What are the best parts about Greek life?" "How can we change a system so rooted in antiquated ways?"On this week's episode, I interview Addison McKissack (she/her), who's a journalist and the editor of our show; not only that but she is also and Alpha Delta Pi alumna and the first openly gay president of the National Panhellenic Conference chapter at Texas State. Something that is very integral to the college experience is that of Greek life. However, the unfortunate thing about this system, is that its many antiquated elements (language and policies) that negatively perpetuate gender roles and heteronormativity. Though, as Addison shares, there are many positive elements to the Greek life--creating family that expands generations, the philanthropic elements--it can often be hard to acknowledge the good when the "foundation of the house" is made up of elitist principles.
