Women in risk advice are important role models in the life insurance industry. They empower their clients, both men and women, to build financial literacy and security.

To ensure that the ReCALIbrate recipients are receiving a benefit of the grant well beyond the event, each recipient will be paired with a senior woman in the life insurance industry to provide a forum for mentorship, learning, support and advice.

Hear from previous ReCALIbrate recipients

"I love working with my clients and being their go-to. It is such a rewarding role, and we need more women represented in this industry. There are so many opportunities, and we provide a great perspective for all clients."

"There is always so much to learn at these events and whatever I can add to my toolbox to better help my team and my clients will be greatly valued."

"We're not just dealing with numbers; we're helping people live better, happier lives. Going to this conference is not just about me; it's a way to make our whole industry better, and I hope for more women to want to be advisers and start their own businesses.”
