No Glitz or glamour on this one to keep the language clear.
Everyone loves to hunt for a good meal deal... even when it comes to grocery shopping and becoming your own 3 Star kitchen.

When average at - home meals cost 4 - 5 dollars a plate (moderate meal) and upwards of 12 - 15 for premium ingredients, over time, what will need to be in that part of your savings... grab a calculator and let's play.

2 meals (you and your spouse) 3 times a day, each meal is $5, and you're desire is to do that for 20 years, 365 days per... What's the calculator show? $219,000
$10? Double it.

Let's look at your menu and the ways that we get to 4 star your kitchen! DM me or call me if you have my number, let's talk about it.

I used to believe life insurance wasn’t necessary if someone had enough savings, owned a home, or had an estate that could be sold.

But then I started asking myself: How much is ever really enough when we’re talking about replacing a life?

Far too many people have misconceptions about life insurance. They believe it’s too expensive, only for parents, only meant to cover funeral costs, or unnecessary when you’re young.

These beliefs can prevent people from experiencing the true value of life insurance protection.

For example, 1 in 5 Canadians surveyed (21%) believe insurers approve only half or fewer of the claims they receive, despite a reported 99% payout rate nationwide.

So, what could a 99% chance of financial protection mean for the people you love when you’re no longer there to provide for them?

It’s not really about you.

It’s about the ones you leave behind.

Life insurance can be more than a policy. It can be the gift of time, stability, and a fresh start when your family needs it most.

❤️ Protect the people who matter most. Let's talk about it!

I worked for a long time in a different self employed, contracted trade: Music! Softer trade to be sure, but if I didn't have the skills I didn't work. Advice around finance or any sort of money sense wasn't offered, sometimes our queries were rejected: "You don't have enough to work with us!"
It's the same out there today for most in any of the trades: few options are willingly offered to help protect and invest in a safer way. We're offering an hour of knowledge to help people with questions get started from a honest work point of view.

Come join us on the 7th of August at 630. Scan the QR for registration or call me for more details!

Does the word make you think "Costs" or "Value"? Insurance is about the 2nd chance we give to those left behind, and that value and vision creates possibility.

In Canada, women make up 47% of the workforce, but only 20% are majority business owners.
We’re proud to say we’re changing that narrative: Over 50% of our business owners are women. 🚀
We are in the business of teaching women to Educate, Empower, and Elevate their families and communities. If you, your spouse, or someone you know is looking for an opportunity to build something of their own, we want to help.

🗓️ I’d love for you to join us and hear directly from people who have leaned into possibility.
Drop me a DM to secure your spot.

Leadership starts with personal development.
Our Summit event is an open, authentic introduction to our company, our people, and our mission: No Family Left Behind. It’s built for leaders who are reflecting on what’s next—personally, professionally, and from a societal impact.
Are you re-examining your path?
Looking to expand your entrepreneurial thinking?
Curious how insights from Canadian business owners raise your leadership outlook?
Many comparable leadership weekends will come with an entry fee in the thousands. Ours runs Friday to Sunday, and the real value often shows up in the conversations after the sessions—where leaders connect, reflect, and challenge each other.
If you’re ready for a meaningful conversation and fresh perspective, call me and let’s create a great weekend.

I have an invitation to every Teacher I know and to folks who have an LAPP style pension..

The evening is directed by folks in my office who have these style pensions, to help answer questions that I'll bet you feel like you have to insist on or beg for.

You questions shouldn't be difficult to gain an answer to. We know we can get you an answer!

DM me or call me if you have my number. I'll be glad to get you an invite!

People see “Insurance Agent” and can think small. The truth? It’s one of the most impactful roles in someone’s financial life.
I help protect single parents, families (even a pet), business owners, people with health challenges, homes, legacies… Real lives. Real futures.
And it’s not just protection. It’s tax advantaged savings growth, education funding, wealth building, and helping people finally feel in control of their financial future.
Financial literacy isn’t a class; it’s a lifelong advantage. That’s why we’re licensed across provinces and states — to serve people wherever they are.
We also offer a business opportunity for people who are tired of feeling stuck and ready to build something meaningful with real support and recognition.
There’s far more to this work than a title. If you’re curious, I’m always open to a conversation.

The markets... it's not as daunting as we might think! Having information from industry professionals in a fully informative way can help clear misconceptions and create a bit of calm too!

A great friend in the business, John Tam from IA Financial Group will be in our offices Tuesday Jan 20th at 7pm MDT. It's open to clients and non clients alike and I'd be glad to send you a link.
