About My 40 Year Dash

The son of a farmer, husband and father of 5, and branch owner of Fortress Insurance Services (Ames, IA) - Tim Hibbing - recounts his first 40 years of life from the farm to church, school to work, marriage to family and a little beyond. Tim’s stories wonderfully capture a midwest upbringing and experiences that may seem ordinary at first glance, but become something much more as each chapter unfolds. A little more about Tim: Tim Hibbing is the dedicated Branch Manager at Fortress Insurance Services, located in his hometown of Ames, Iowa. With a career in the insurance industry spanning nearly two decades since his graduation from Iowa State University in 2005, Tim brings a wealth of experience and a commitment to serving his community. Prior to joining the agency side, Tim honed his skills at Nationwide Insurance, where he successfully supervised a top-performing call center unit. This foundation allowed him to transition seamlessly into his current role, where he has since written over 20,000 insurance policies across a wide range of needs. Known for his helpful and responsive approach, Tim is highly regarded by his clients for his ability to find them better insurance rates and provide exceptional service. His dedication to client satisfaction has also earned him the distinction of being a Dave Ramsey Endorsed Local Provider for insurance.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
