"I was left to pick up the pieces, and through that journey, I realized how critical it is to have a financial plan in place. That's why I'm on a mission to ensure that no family has to experience what I did."

"I wish I had had the living benefits life insurance when John had his accident in 2014. It would have made a huge difference in our life."

"He was able to go back to work eventually, and he was able to walk again. But we lost everything in that time period that he wasn't working. We just didn't have enough to pay all the bills."
