A Journey to Clarity and Confidence in Insurance
Welcome to Coverage Clarity! I’m Michael Van Houten, and I’m thrilled to embark on this journey with you. If you’re here, chances are you’re looking for clear, concise, and valuable information about insurance. Whether you're a young adult just starting to think about life insurance or a seasoned professional considering financial planning, my goal is to make the complex world of insurance simple and accessible.
A Personal Journey
Before diving into the world of insurance, I spent 22 years as a chef. It was a career I loved, filled with creativity and passion. However, life threw me a curveball when I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. This diagnosis meant that I had to step away from the kitchen and find a new path. Around the same time, I faced the daunting task of securing my own health insurance, no longer able to stay on my wife’s employer plan. The process was frustrating and confusing, filled with jargon and fine print that seemed designed to confound rather than clarify.
The Lightbulb Moment
During those hours of painstaking research, my wife made a suggestion that changed my life: "Have you ever thought about going into insurance? With the amount of time you're spending on research, you could help others save that time." Her words resonated with me. I realized that if I could navigate this complex terrain and emerge with a solid understanding, I could guide others through it as well. That’s how Van Houten Insurance was born.
