Drama and conflict are everywhere in our lives today. In the books, movies and popular media we consume. And in the relationships that make up our lives.
Sociologists and healthcare professionals often say that the dynamic roles people play in relationships form a drama triangle. Each of us can, and has, claimed one or more of these roles in our lifetime. Understanding how to overcome these challenges is critical in learning how to interact with others and in living the life you want.
My guest today has found her way through the drama triangle and lived to tell about it. Let’s talk with Rachel Graham about her journey.

S02, Ep 04: John Allen, The What If Series on Insurance
The first in a series we call “What If?” In this episode, we discover what you really need to know about insurance. Our guest, John Allen, is president and managing agent with Community Insurance Advisors. John’s mission is to set a new standard for the insurance industry. Here John walks us through a thought process of how we should engage an agent and get the most from our insurance policies. While many people buy insurance on price (whether it be for the house, car or business), most of us really have no idea what our policies cover. John clearly describes “all-risk” versus “named-perils” coverage, water endorsements and the difference between replacement and ACV (depreciated) claims settlements. John has leveraged his passion for people and his attention to detail to grow an insurance business that is a true advocate for his clients.”

S06, Ep 03: Giving Healthcare a Destination, featuring David Mair
Whether it’s choosing a doctor, hospital or other medical provider, or paying for high cost prescription medications, health care is front and center in most of our lives these days. People are looking for solutions to spread their financial resources without sacrificing quality or skipping necessary care. It can feel like a rat race with no way out.One of those solutions is something many of us are not aware of, something called destination medical care, the idea of traveling to medical center other than the closest one to come up with the best outcome, timely access to care and manageable costs. Where this was once seen as only for wealthy, individual patients, it’s now become a practical option for companies trying to manage benefit costs and individual patient alike.
Our guest today has taken this concept to the next level and not only made good care available to more people he’s found ways to make it affordable, available and practical.
