RAW: Real Actuarial Women

For our Season 2 Q2 special topics episode, instead of a single topic, we’re bringing you a 3-part Professional Growth Miniseries!

Originally recorded as a panel discussion in partnership with NAWA and Assurant for Women’s History Month, this series features three industry leaders—Alana Shiraishi, Aree Bly, and Ximena Fernandez. They sit down with host Lizzie Eason to pull back the curtain on the hard-earned wisdom that shaped their actuarial careers.

Using a "content-as-a-meal" metaphor, our panelists share how to help your audience digest complex data. Learn how to "start with dessert" to hook your audience, use selective proof to maintain credibility, and stay flexible when the conversation shifts unexpectedly.
