Through a realistic case study\, attendees will explore how pressure\, opportunity\, and rationalization can lead to misconduct and examine the financial\, regulatory\, and reputational impacts that follow. Participants will leave with practical strategies to strengthen ethical decision-making\, reduce insider threats\, and foster a culture of accountability built on trust.\n\n\n\n\n\n9:30-9:45AM- Break\n\n\n\n9:45-10:45AM- Keynote: “You Don’t Need More Experience. You Need More Self-Trust” by Kimiko Donahue (Approved for 1 Hr. of General CE)\n\n This keynote takes on the belief that early-career agents simply need more time in the business before they can perform. Using NLP-based reframing tools and self-image science\, participants learn to spot the unconscious “rookie” stories driving their daily behavior and replace them with a professional identity grounded in self-trust — so they show up with the clarity and confidence that earns client relationships from day one.\n\n\n\n\n\n10:45-11:00AM- Activity: “Passport to Connections”\n\nBreak the ice and expand your network with our interactive Passport to Connections challenge! Attendees will receive a passport card featuring a variety of fun and industry-related prompts and will mingle throughout the event to find fellow participants who match each description. Collect signatures to complete your passport and turn it in for a chance to win a prize while making meaningful connections with peers from across the industry.\n\n\n\n\n\n11:00-11:20AM- Grab Lunch/Network\n\n\n\n11:20-11:40AM- 2026 “Future Insurance Leaders of Oklahoma (FILO) Graduation” & Lunch\n\n\n\n11:40-11:50AM- Networking Break\n\n\n\n11:50-12:50PM- “The Authentic Advantage: Turning Connections into Clients” (Approved 1 Hr. of General CE) by LaVeta Breath\n\nIn today’s insurance industry\, lasting success is built on trust and genuine relationships. This interactive session explores how authentic communication can strengthen your marketing efforts\, improve client relationships\, and drive business growth. Attendees will leave with practical strategies\, increased self-awareness\, and actionable techniques to build meaningful connections that lead to long-term success.\n\n\n\n\n\n12:50-1:00PM- Networking Break\n\n\n\n1:00-2:00PM- Session: “Pitch Perfect” by Kimiko Donahue (Approved for 1 Hr. of General CE) & Wrap Up\n\nWhere the keynote builds self-trust\, this session turns that self-trust into something agents can use in any room: a clear\, confident elevator pitch — and the presence to deliver it like they mean it. The goal isn’t a clever script. It’s a pitch they can say out loud\, under mild pressure\, without freezing\, rambling\, or apologizing.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease Note: Continuing education is only approved for P&C Licenses.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration Options: \n\n\n\n🎟️ Agent Registration \n\n\n\nRegistration TierRegistration DatesRateDetails🏝️ Fins Up Early Bird RateJuly 7 – July 31\, 2026$139Catch the island breeze before everyone else!🍹 It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere RateAugust 1 – August 27\, 2026$169The perfect time to lock in your spot.🌅 Last Call at the Tiki Bar RateAugust 28 – September 11\, 2026$199Final chance before registration sails away!\n\n\n\n🍹 “It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere” Social (September 16th) \n\n\n\nEventCostDetails🍹 OK-PAC Social$20 Donation at the DoorAll proceeds benefit OK-PAC.
