If you think AI is coming to take your job, you're looking at the wrong side of the coin. The real entrepreneur mindset shift is realizing that technology isn't replacing the human touch in the insurance industry--it is strapping a rocket ship to it. It's about using these tools to handle the back-office grind so you can focus on the relationships that actually drive your financial freedom. Kaden Bramall is a key leader at Agency VA and was an early employee at Divvy, the spend management unicorn that scaled from a startup to a $2.5 billion acquisition by Bill.com in just three years. Now, he is pioneering the "Augmented AI" space, where virtual assistants are supercharged with agentic logic to shrink 30-minute quoting processes down to less than five minutes.
