Let’s Address the Elephant in the Room

Let’s be honest—you hear someone say, “I’m getting my life insurance license,” and you probably think… Wow, that sounds like the most boring thing to willingly do… ON EARTH.

Now, I’m not sure if that exact thought has ever run through my mind, but I can affirm that it was never my dream career growing up. Not by a long shot.

Young Kristin aspired to be a wedding planner—maybe a travel planner. For a very short moment, she wanted to be a dentist. A teacher. She was all over the board. But I can promise you that Life Insurance Agent was never on the list.

The elephant in the room? There are a lotttt of assumptions about the life insurance industry, and I get it. Like in any business, there are people who don’t operate with integrity. But I can confidently say that our agency and team of agents do—because that is the standard Symmetry Financial Group has created for their company.

We thought it might be fun to tackle some of the biggest myths around life insurance and chat about what we’ve seen, experienced, and learned over the last two years.

Welcome to today’s episode… Debunking the Myths of a Life Insurance Career.

We’ve heard it all:

❌ “Isn’t life insurance an MLM or pyramid scheme?”

❌ “There’s no way that can be a full-time career.”

❌ “Most people fail in life insurance.”

❌ “Only pushy salespeople succeed.”

❌ “You only make money if you recruit people.”

Have you ever talked to someone who is actually in the business—specifically at Symmetry Financial Group? My guess would be no, because that’s not the posture of the people we learn and grow beside every day.

We’re happy to provide some clarity for you today.
