Upon working with a well known Fortune 100 company, Lacole quickly learned that she loved the role and became quite passionate about helping communities establish legacy and financial freedom. In recent years, she found it more suitable to start and operate her own financial services agency/firm, and in addition she now mentors agents seeking to know more about the role, and grow their practice independently.
