Ever wonder what happens when life throws you a curveball and medical bills start piling up? Christina Solis, an independent AFLAC agent, joins the Good Neighbor Podcast to reveal how supplemental insurance offers a financial safety net most people don't know exists.

Christina breaks down the crucial difference between traditional and supplemental insurance: while companies like Blue Cross Blue Shield pay doctors and hospitals directly, AFLAC puts cash directly in policyholders' hands. This distinction means you decide how to use those funds – whether for medical expenses, mortgage payments, groceries, or childcare – because regular bills don't stop when illness or injury strikes.

Drawing from over three decades in hospitality, Christina brings authentic customer service to her insurance career. Her transition wasn't planned – after witnessing friends struggle financially following injuries, AFLAC "fell into her lap" through a recruiting officer's text. A personal connection solidified her decision, as she remembered how AFLAC benefits had helped her brother-in-law's family pay bills for three months after a workplace injury.

Christina dispels common misconceptions, particularly that you must already have insurance to qualify for AFLAC coverage. While supplemental insurance works optimally alongside major medical plans, it still provides valuable protection for those without traditional coverage. Her marketing approach balances modern social media with old-fashioned networking, targeting anyone interested in improving their financial, physical, or mental wellness.

What truly distinguishes Christina is her commitment to authenticity: "I'm not here just to make numbers and hit quotas – I'm actually here to help. I'm not trying to sell you something you don't need."
