Motivated by Family

Motivation is a huge part of what makes our Partners unique. For Alondra Topete of Relentless Insurance Agency, the desire to serve others has been a driving force throughout her life.

Her heart for service began as a child, spending time working with her family on their ranch in Mexico. Each member of the family had an important role to fill, caring for the animals and working on the land. Alondra never worked harder than she did on the ranch, but it satisfied her to see the results of her efforts. And when her job was done, she got to relax by riding horses throughout the beautiful Southwest scenery — a reward she craves to this day.

As she grew older, she wanted a career that helped others, so she pursued nursing. However, as she was earning money for school, she discovered the world of final expense insurance! She had no idea what an impact these offerings could make in the lives of seniors and the comfort and peace of mind they provide. She was immediately hooked and knew she had found her calling!

For Alondra, the connection to her family influenced her career and inspired her to take an active role in helping families prepare for the future by providing greater financial security. We love seeing strong examples of our Partners embodying our core value of “Family” in such profound ways. Be sure to listen to the rest of the “Inspire” Podcast to learn more about Alondra and this wonderful new partnership!
