Recode Podcast Ep #7 Challenge Those Beliefs - A Rapid Discourse With Ebenezer Ikonne The Recode podcast

41:48

In this episode of The Recode Podcast, I explore many dimensions with my friend Kelly Gonyo; Founder and President of Blue Line Insurance Agency, Inc. Kelly is a business owner, leader and compassionate professional in the insurance industry. You’ll hear how she pushed through the challenges of a low college GPA to build a thriving business in the challenging, bustling and heavily regulated financial landscape that is New York State. During this “Women’s History Month” I am honored to celebrate her success, and truly inspirational journey. You’ll hear how she renews and recharges her commitment to her team and our industry by spending time in nature and with family. Kelly is a beacon of light that spotlights the remarkable difference that women make in the workplace, her parents played a significant role in the woman she has become today and she does not mince words in giving them the credit they deserve for the tough guardrails within which they raised her and siblings. The conversation is boisterous, we laugh out loud, banter through substantive tools for success in life. “You must care for people, be respectful and be respected”... conventional words of wisdom that are not so conventional these days. Thank You Kelly!…
