In the last several years, there are more business owners than we can count. Businesses are opening up quite frequently. And I think that shows the need, the dreams, and the desires of the community to have the independence and to have the financial freedom that's important to them.

The reason why it's so important to me to be out there to share information and to educate the community is because I know that a dream doesn't always help you to be successful. You need the competency. You need the wisdom. You need the knowledge. That's where we come in as State Farm agents. Our ability to be able to teach over 100 years of experience in this world to say, hey, we got you.

You got this and we got this. Let's do it together.

Knowing that no business is the same. Knowing that we're all impacted by things that are beyond our control, like catastrophes. And hearing and listening and understanding what's important to a business owner. Understanding how much is truly affordable and what makes sense at that moment. Because a three-year psychiatrist is going to be very different than a 20-year doctor.

And a two-year sign owner is going to be very different than a one-month restaurant owner. who's just trying to figure out what's going to be on the menu next month. Those are the things that I think are extremely important that come to my experience as a small business owner.

It's me figuring out how to help the people that I live with, how to help the people that I work with, how to help the people that I volunteer with.
