What’s in this episode:
If you want a long, happy, and profitable career in insurance without running yourself into the ground, this episode is your blueprint. Michael and Courtney sit down with Mason Novess—agency owner turned field leader—to talk leadership endurance, goal setting that actually sticks, and the two roles you must outsource if you want to avoid burnout.

From ditching the “start with why” trap to the Start with Who philosophy, Mason breaks down how the right accountability partners and possible (not just probable) goals can reignite your career. You’ll also hear why excellence is boring, why shiny-object side hustles kill your focus, and how outsourcing recruiting and sales coaching buys back your time while multiplying results.

Plus, Michael pulls back the curtain on the brand-new AI-powered training platform designed to give agency teams 24/7 sales coaching, live role-play, and daily accountability reports—without the owner having to be in the room.

Whether you’re brand new or a 20-year vet, this is the conversation that will help you play the long game and win.
