There are turning points in life where only those who experience them can fully understand the anxieties behind a decision. For Jaclyn, leaving her management position in the nail industry – a field she was familiar with and had a certain standing in – to embark on a completely new path in insurance was a turning point. Her journey is not just a story of career change, but also a journey of rediscovering herself, finding joy, and achieving work-life balance at THINKSMART INSURANCE.
The Grind of Work and Unspoken Burdens
Recalling the time before, Jaclyn couldn’t help but feel emotional. Her job managing a nail salon, while providing experience and income, also took too much from her. Each day began with long, tiring commutes, sometimes exacerbated by traffic jams. “Every day I left early and came home late,” she recounted, “by the time I got home, it was already dark.”
What weighed on her most, perhaps, was the “time for family.” Hasty meals and precious moments with loved ones seemed to become increasingly scarce. The pressure of work and complex relationships in the workplace sometimes left her “mentally exhausted.” She felt constrained, a feeling of “not being able to escape,” constantly stuck in the nail salon. That’s when the desire for change began to ignite.
Listening to Her Heart and Daring to Change
No one wants to remain stuck in a loop that doesn’t bring complete happiness. Jaclyn began searching for a new direction, an opportunity to make her life more meaningful. And then, serendipity led her to the insurance industry.
Many people might be hesitant at the mention of “selling insurance,” but Jaclyn saw different values in it, especially when she learned about and decided to partner with Thinksmart Insurance. She shared that she is incredibly proud and confident to work for a company with “truly excellent” services, with a supportive team of customer service staff, administrators, and managers who are always by her side.
More importantly, she found a philosophy of working with integrity here. “When you work, you must have a good heart,” Jaclyn emphasized. This is something she always keeps in mind, and also something she feels from her colleagues and the company culture.
Happiness in Being Herself
The change brought Jaclyn things she never had before.
- Control over Her Life: “My time is much more flexible now,” she smiled. “I can arrange my work and still have time for myself, for my family, and still be able to meet and advise clients thoroughly.”
- Deserved Income: “Of course, the income is also completely different,” she shared without hesitation. When her efforts were rewarded, when she built a solid client base, she created a better life for herself.
- Joy from Sharing: What makes Jaclyn feel this job is truly meaningful is when she can “help clients improve their financial foundation, protect them and their families from risks, and plan for their children’s future.” It’s not just a job, but a mission to bring peace of mind to others.
She affirmed resolutely: “This will be my life, the job that I will pursue to the end.” Satisfaction shone in her eyes, a satisfaction that comes from finding her passion, finding balance, and true value in her work.
When Work is Empathy
Jaclyn and her colleagues understand that sometimes people still have certain reservations about insurance. But having gained a deep understanding, she realizes that “this is a very humane program, a very humane policy.” This belief, along with empathy and a sincere desire to help others, has helped her overcome all barriers, persistently sharing the positive values of insurance with the community.
In Conclusion
Jaclyn’s story is proof that it’s never too late to change, to seek a path that makes us happier. Giving up a familiar, high-pressure job to venture into a new field is not easy, but with determination, perseverance, and most importantly, finding a suitable work environment where you can reach your full potential and work with all your heart, success and fulfillment will surely come.
