What’s in this episode: If you think becoming the CEO of a thriving insurance business is about skipping the grind—you’ve got it backward. Justin Cook joins Michael and Courtney to share the unfiltered journey from overlooked agent to MDRT leader with multiple agencies. He breaks down the exact daily framework his team uses to stay focused and consistent, how to evolve from personal producer to business owner, and the mindset shift that led to his new book Freedom Beyond Wealth. This one’s packed with tactical structure, raw honesty, and the leadership playbook most agents never get.
