    When the wind picks up, claims become a pressure cooker. 🌪️

    In this episode, Chantal and Heather tackle five real-world conflicts adjusters face during catastrophes — from underinsurance and staffing shortages to pressure, compassion fatigue, and post-storm chaos. They unpack what happens when good intentions collide with policy language, time limits, and too many claims on the desk.

    💬 You’ll hear stories from the field, insider strategies for ethical decision-making under pressure, and a few laughs (because sometimes that’s all you can do during CAT season).

  • Episode # 80 - Knowledge is Power

    This one’s for the adjusters who keep learning even when nobody’s paying for training anymore.

    Heather and Chantal talk about what real professional development looks like today — from learning policy language on your own to staying sharp as tech, AI, and consumer expectations change faster than your claim count. They dig into why mold and low-impact claims are making a comeback, how leadership can actually support adjusters, and why communication skills matter just as much as technical ones.

    It’s a fun, honest conversation about taking ownership of your career, sharing what you know, and finding the balance between empathy and efficiency in claims.

    💬 Join the conversation:
