I know I’ve heard this question at least a few times.

If we haven’t met before, you’re probably thinking the same thing.

> I’m so glad you’re here by the way!

In this latest episode of [The Insurance Nerdery](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9aPOwE25Yn-ynPUm6vMAOw), I tell you why I think this question is a problem.  The question I’d like asked is, “Why don’t we see more [insert Insurance Industry role here] telling their stories?”

Telling our unique stories, using whatever platform is most comfortable for us, is the best way to give our perspective of the industry we love.

And maybe, just maybe, people outside of our industry will begin to feel the love as well.

Now if you want to start telling your story, maybe [submitting an article to the InsNerds Team](https://insnerds.com/write-for-insnerds/) is your first step
