“If you’re not physically, emotionally, and spiritually well… your business won’t be either.”

On this episode of Behind the Small Business Podcast, I sat down with Alex Lammers, owner of Lammers Insurance Agency, to talk about what it really takes to build a business from scratch, push through burnout, and keep moving forward when the road gets tough.

From starting with zero experience and zero clients to building a thriving agency with her husband, Alex shares:

✅ Why sometimes “blind faith and confidence” are exactly what entrepreneurs need

✅ How networking and community involvement can reignite your passion

✅ Why small business owners should never settle for one-size-fits-all insurance

✅ And why taking care of yourself is just as important as taking care of your business

Tune in, get inspired, and take some practical wisdom back to your own business journey.
