Jessica Hendricks has spent more than 18 years in property and casualty insurance, and now she is head of agency relations for Standard Lines at Westfield. In this live discussion, she reflects on challenging moments, such as when she dropped out of law school and, as a lifelong type-A planner, needed to figure out her life without a plan. Learning to trust her gut, Jess began getting comfortable with saying no and allowing herself to be ‘selfish’ within her career and personal life. We will also hear how Jess leads as her whole self, being comfortable not having all the answers, and finding her footing in the ‘messy middle’, from the boardroom to the ball field. If you are sitting at a crossroads, this discussion is for you.   Meet Jessica HendricksJessica Hendricks is Head of Agency Relations for Standard Lines at Westfield, where she leads the Distribution Management team focused on strengthening agency relationships and creating a more connected, consistent experience for agency partners. Her team supports agencies throughout the entire lifecycle, from prospecting and onboarding to compensation, engagement, and strategic partnerships.

Molly looks back at the mentor who took a chance on her, the district manager who told her at 21 she would never make it, and the dollar bill taped under her chair at her first sales training and discusses how the “prove them wrong” fuel worked for her.

Molly opens up about helping her daughter Avery publish books written about living with anxiety and explains how anxiety can show up in the most mysterious ways.

Listen in as host Meg McKeen welcomes Julie Tomlinson for a conversation about the professional sabbatical that came when the job, the title, even the industry stopped fitting.

Julie is candid and wise, and reminds us that knowing who you are is a skill that will always be in demand.
