Hey Wealth Warriors! Season 3 opens with a myth-busting deep dive into the insurance industry - and the massive opportunity hiding in plain sight.
Your Gen X host Hawley Woods Gray and millennial co-host Alexandra “Allie” Ramo unpack the “Peak 65” moment (12,000 boomers turning 65 every day), why nearly 40% of today’s financial professionals are set to retire, and how that creates career pathways not just in sales—but in claims, product, underwriting, service, tech, marketing, leadership, and more. We get real about living benefits (it’s not “death insurance” anymore), residual income and flexibility for family life, and the human side of this work—like Hawley’s client stories (Chanel’s life-changing living-benefits claim and Lynn’s pension review that made retirement possible).
Plus: how the industry modernized post-pandemic (e-apps, virtual meetings), why women are in demand, and the fun stuff no one talks about (company trips, team culture, friendly competitions).
If you’ve ever thought “insurance sounds boring,” this episode might flip that script.

What is Women of Wealth?
Women of Wealth is where generational wisdom meets entrepreneurial ambition.
Hosted by Hawley Woods Gray and Allie Ramo, the podcast brings two generations - and two distinct perspectives - to conversations about money, business, leadership, and building a life on your own terms.
Hawley brings the Gen X perspective, shaped by decades of experience in business, finance, leadership, and wealth building. Allie brings the Millennial perspective of a modern entrepreneur navigating growth, opportunity, and what success looks like for the next generation. Together, they prove that some of the best lessons happen when women at different stages of life learn from one another.
Each week, Hawley and Allie sit down with powerhouse founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and changemakers for candid conversations about the wins, challenges, pivots, and lessons behind their success.
Expect powerful stories, practical advice, different perspectives, and honest conversations about money, entrepreneurship, career, confidence, leadership, and creating lasting wealth.
Because wealth is about more than money. It’s about freedom, opportunity, impact, and creating a life on your own terms.
