If you think you need a specific resume or 20 years of experience to succeed in this industry, you are flat-out wrong. The belief that there's only one path to the top is an excuse that can sometimes producers stuck.On this episode, I'm joined by Ragan Edwards, and her story is the blueprint for anyone who feels like an outsider. After 10 years as a stay-at-home mom, she jumped into commercial insurance with no prior industry experience, and she's become a top producer. We break down how she used her skills she learned as a mom to create a competitive advantage, how she navigates a male-dominated industry by refusing to be anyone but herself, and how a deeply personal "why" fuels her resilience. If you've ever felt like an imposter or that your background is a disadvantage, this is your chance to see how a real producer is building a business on her own terms while others just stick to the old playbook.▶▶ Sign Up For Our Social Media Sales Seminar:https://www.completegameu.com/registration-SMSSKEY MOMENTS(00:00:00) Ragan Edwards: From Stay-at-Home Mom to Commercial Insurance Powerhouse(00:03:10) What Ragan learned from being a mom(00:07:42) Navigating a career restart(00:16:09) Being a woman in healthcare(00:23:47) Why finding a niche was so key for Ragan(00:27:01) Overcoming imposter syndromeCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY
