In this episode of Real People, Real Estate, Lindsay sits down with Christina Wheeler, an insurance industry veteran with over 30 years of experience and the founder of Wheeler Insurance Agency, for an honest, approachable conversation about life insurance—and why it matters more than most homeowners realize.

Christina recently launched her own agency with a focused mission: helping individuals and families understand and secure the right life insurance coverage for their unique situations. Together, we break down Life Insurance 101 in plain English—what it is, why it’s important, and how it fits into responsible homeownership and long-term planning.

While life insurance isn’t always the most comfortable topic, Christina explains why having coverage in place is one of the most meaningful ways to protect the people and investments you care about. We walk through the different types of life insurance policies, the pros and cons of each, and common misconceptions that often prevent people from taking action.

This episode is for homeowners, parents, business owners, and anyone who wants clarity—not pressure—around life insurance and financial protection.

In this episode, we cover:
• Why life insurance is a key part of homeownership planning
• Term vs. permanent life insurance—pros and cons of each
• Common myths and misunderstandings about life insurance
• How to think about coverage based on real life, not fear
• Why education—not sales—is the foundation of good insurance advice

Real people. Real planning. Real protection—for the life you’re building.
