Apply now

Homer, AK is home to artists, seasonal workers, and people building independent livelihoods — and if you spent years in a classroom pouring into other people's futures and you're ready to pour into your own without walking away from work that actually helps people, this remote opportunity might be exactly what you're looking for. This is a remote, work-from-home position; you'll be based anywhere with internet access while serving clients across the country.

What You'll Actually Do

  • Connect with individuals and families interested in whole life and indexed universal life products that go beyond basic coverage to build long-term financial protection
  • Explain complex concepts the way only a teacher can — clearly, patiently, and in a way that empowers the person in front of you to make a confident decision
  • Build a client base through warm leads, referrals, and genuine relationship-building — no classroom management required
  • Work entirely from home in a remote, 1099 independent contractor capacity with schedule flexibility you haven't had in years

Who This Is a Fit For

  • Former or current educators — teachers, counselors, coaches, administrators — who are skilled at breaking down complicated topics
  • People who are energized by helping others understand something that genuinely changes their situation
  • Those transitioning out of education who want their next chapter to have staying power and real flexibility
  • Both unlicensed and licensed candidates — if you're new to insurance, we'll walk beside you through the licensing process

What We Provide

  • A training culture that was built by people who believe in mentorship — not thrown-together videos, but real ongoing support
  • Access to experienced agents who remember what it was like to start and are generous with what they've learned
  • Remote-first flexibility, virtual team events, and a genuine community of people who show up for each other
  • Products that serve clients at a deeper level, which tends to resonate with people who got into teaching to make a real difference

Commission-based 1099 work means your results are yours — and so is your schedule. The transition from education to this field takes intention and some patience with the learning curve, but teachers tend to make exceptional agents because they already know how to care about the person across the table. Ready to start a conversation? Reach out — we'd love to talk with you about what's possible.
