Ep 30: What Happens to Your Business If You Get Cancer? With Kristen Judd The Living Benefits Strategy Every Entrepreneur Should Know

Join us on the Activated Entrepreneur Podcast as we welcome Kristen Judd, a seasoned money maven with over a decade of experience, to discuss the vital intersection of entrepreneurship and personal financial preparedness. Our conversation kicks off with a poignant story Kristen shared at a networking event about a couple who accessed $800,000 through living benefits during a challenging time. This story resonated deeply with me, especially following my own cancer diagnosis, underscoring the necessity of planning for unforeseen events. Entrepreneurs often lack the safety nets provided by corporate jobs, and meaningful grants can be scarce. Listen in as Kristen dispels common misconceptions about life insurance, highlighting its role not just in addressing death but in protecting your livelihood and loved ones while you are alive.


We also explore the benefits of whole life insurance, particularly its value as a financial safety net for entrepreneurs and individuals facing unexpected life challenges. Through personal stories, including my own experiences with divorce, job loss, and IVF treatments, we emphasize how whole life insurance can serve as a tax-free financial asset, offering protection from creditors and liquidity in times of need. Kristen and I reflect on the insurance industry's focus on quotas and numbers, advocating for a more compassionate and strategic approach to financial planning. With the limited number of insurance brokers compared to the vast U.S. population, we see a significant opportunity for growth and education about insurance coverage options. We invite you to reach out for guidance, whether you're considering a career in insurance or seeking to better understand your own policies.

With no formal business plan or branding, Danielle built her client base through cold DM outreach on Instagram, starting with social media management and virtual administrative assistance. Her experience highlights the power of authenticity and connection in entrepreneurial success.

Listen in as we navigate the challenges of entrepreneurial overwhelm and growth. We emphasize taking action without waiting for perfection, sharing stories of launching businesses with just a PayPal link and a Facebook post. Discover how our agency assists established entrepreneurs, helping them refine their pitches and manage their social media presence. A key strategy discussed is conducting "brain dumps" to prioritize goals and manage tasks effectively. We also highlight the importance of accountability and having a supportive "business bestie" to achieve objectives, ensuring entrepreneurs can balance their many roles without feeling overwhelmed.
