In this episode of The Power Producers Podcast, David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck interviews Teresa Kitchens, Owner and Agent at Sterling Insurance Group and host of the Power Women In Insurance podcast, and Denisse Bravo, Owner and Vice President at Bravo Insurance Solutions. Teresa and Denisse discuss how they got into the insurance business and how they built their insurance agency. They also share their knowledge and expertise in the insurance world and the IAOA subgroup they have created. Episode Highlights: David introduces Teresa Kitchens and Denisse Bravo. (1:33) Denisse shares her background and her career in the insurance industry. (2:25) Denisse shares that her best explanation about the Portuguese language is that the cadence of how they speak is almost like a song. (3:57) Kyle shares one thing that he finds interesting is that not only do people not intend on getting into the industry that we've been interviewing, but most of them have come from captive agencies. (4:25) In David’s opinion, it's easier to execute when all of the boundaries, rules, and everything are in place, rather than creating all of the boundaries and all of the rules. (5:32) Teresa shares her background and her career in the insurance industry. (8:57) Teresa mentions that her dream is more on the business side than becoming an agent in a CSR platform type of model. (11:03) Teresa shares that as an advisor, they’re educating, teaching, and they’re capable of connecting with everyone, wherever they are. (11:47) David mentions his theory on things related to insurance and sales. (13:04) What does Denisse’s agency look like, and what kind of business does she write? (14:33) David thinks that if you’re a P&C agent and calling on business owners, you should have the buy-sell agreement conversation with them, immediately. (19:55) David hopes that this year, people will step back and make educated decisions, instead of looking at the price. (21:58) Denisse believes that they have some kind of a mass exodus, on the life and health side. (23:09) What does Teresa’s agency look like? (23:51) Teresa thinks that every agency owner gets to a point where they get into the business, bring in the revenue, and make it work. (25:56) Teresa shares that at this point, they’re in the growth process, they moved back, stopped, resituated for a bit, and now they’re at the point where they’re ready to escalate and move forward. (27:17) Teresa mentions that her biggest fear in life is letting people down. (29:35) Denisse shares a story about a client prospect that she fired yesterday. (29:54) David shares the conversation he had with a BMW car dealer. (30:43) What are Teresa and Denisse doing with their subgroup of IAOA? (34:15) Teresa explains how she met Denisse. (34:24) Teresa shares that she started a podcast called Power Women In Insurance. (35:38) What were the biggest challenges that Teresa and Denisse faced, and no holds barred? (38:09) Has David ever been asked to smile more? (48:04) David shares a story about a client/prospect who sent an utterly inappropriate attachment, to one of the ladies who worked with him. (49:02) Denisse mentions that women are exposed to certain pressures, that their counterparts are not. (53:03) Teresa mentions that sometimes, people take different advantages of a woman than they do, from a man. (54:14) Teresa shares a short background about their group. (57:30) Teresa thinks that positivity is one of the overall resounding things that their group is bringing to the table. (58:14) At this moment, how many members do Teresa and Denisse have in their group? (58:30) Denisse shares one thing that she loves about the women of IAOA is that they're not pulling punches. (1:00:07) David thinks that collaboration is very significant. (1:01:11) Teresa shares that they need to make sure that everybody feels like they have a voice, and make everybody feel that their contribution is essential. (1:04:05) Tweetable Quotes: “I loved being a teacher, I loved being a stay at home mom, and I love insurance. It's really weird, but I got in on the back door and you know, I've been able to have a lot of fun in the process.” - Teresa Kitchens “Watching these women take off that have found their own careers in industry is inspiring. Hearing how they manage their families, hearing how they manage their teams, hearing how they have acquired their positions, and how they deal with the other people that worked for them and with them is something that I think a lot of women could benefit from.” - Teresa Kitchens “I'm going to hit that first question that you asked, what is the biggest problem? Okay, women are expected to work like they don't have children, and mothers are supposed to act like they don't work. In a nutshell, that's what the difference is.” - Denisse Bravo “Women even sometimes think of women not necessarily as their boss, they think they can go on and talk about all their problems, your bestie, buddy, you know, we have to keep a little bit more of a distance because women are nurturing, women are caring, and sometimes people take that for granted, and people sometimes take different advantage of a woman than they do, from a man.” - Teresa Kitchens Resources Mentioned: David Carothers LinkedIn Kyle Houck LinkedIn Florida Risk Partners The Extra 2 Minutes Teresa Kitchens LinkedIn Sterling Insurance Group Denisse Bravo LinkedIn Bravo Insurance Solutions Power Women In Insurance Podcast The Women Of IAOA Facebook Group Insurance Agency Owners Alliance

In this week’s episode, Tom Vander Ark is talking with Dr. David Blustein, a Professor of Counseling Psychology at Boston College. Dr. Blustein’s 2006 book, The Psychology of Working, made him a leader in the emerging field of vocational psychology. His newest book, The Importance of Work in an Age of Uncertainty, discusses the eroding work experience in America and how to prepare young people to thrive in a complex world. Also joining Dr. Blustein and Tom in this episode is Ed Hidalgo from the Cajon Valley Union School District — a leading example of early immersive career education — where he serves as the Chief Innovation and Engagement Officer. Tom, Ed, and Dr. Blustein dive into the topic of working in America, early career education, vocational psychology in the classroom, and how work has drastically shifted since the Industrial Age. Dr. Blustein highlights key learnings from both of his books, gives his thoughts on the current nature of work, and gives his thoughts on when we should begin educating children about the world of work. This episode is the first in a two-part series on starting career education early! So be sure to tune in next week too, to catch the rest of the conversation!

Luke 17:1 “It is impossible that no offenses should come, but woe to him through whom they do come! In life you're going to be offended Opposition Leads To Elevation 2 Samuel 10:3 The people of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, “Do you think that David really honors your father because he has sent comforters to you? Has David not rather sent his servants to you to search the city, to spy it out, and to overthrow it?” 2 Samuel 10:4 Therefore Hanun took David’s servants, shaved off half of their beards, cut off their garments in the middle, at their buttocks, and sent them away. 2 Samuel 10:5 When they told David, he sent messengers to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, “Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return.” Jericho - Sweet Fragrance Go to the sweet place and stay sweet Romans 12:19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. Revelation 6:10 They shouted to the Lord and said, “O Sovereign Lord, Holy and true, how long before you judge the people who belong to this world and avenge our blood for what they have done to us?" Revelation 21:27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life. Ephesians 4:30-32 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. 32 And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you. Ephesians 5:1-2 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 2 And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma. There is a FRAGRANCE of forgiveness Forgive others in the same way Jesus has forgiven us. Luke 23:34 “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing, Matthew 18:21-22 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" 22 Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy times seven. Jesus’ call to forgiveness is not about keeping score but about losing count. Forgiveness begins by understanding that you yourself have been forgiven. Matthew 18:27 The King took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. God has forgiven you much more than you'll ever have to forgive anyone else. Matthew 18:28-30 He grabbed him and began to choke him. 'Pay back what you owe me!' he demanded. 29 "His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.' 30 "But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. Verse 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and went and told their master everything that had happened. 32 "Then the master called the servant in. 'You wicked servant,' he said, 'I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?' 34 In anger, his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. 35 "This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart." Unforgiveness Hurts You 33 Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?' If you don’t feel forgiven, you won’t want to forgive anybody else. #1. Give The Forgive #2. Get The Forget #3. Drop The Debt #4. Pray for the Perp Matthew 5:4
