Liberty is not your typical insurance broker: We are a culture-first organization, and believe “If you put people first, good business will follow.” We are very collaborative, creative, entrepreneurial, and wellness-focused. We believe that the true Wealth of our Organization is dependent upon the Holistic Health of each member. We can serve our clients most powerfully when we are at our best mentally, physically, and spiritually. To that end, our goal is to clear the path of political and administrative distractions so our team members can focus on their Highest And Best Use (HABU), which is what they love to do, what they do best, and therefore, is best for all of us.
