This Week at Skye Ep23: New faces, big ideas and whisked-up wins ☕🍫

Here’s what the Skye team got up to this week:

✅ Product launches and insights: Ash joined Ascenda’s webinar about their new TPD product, part of a wave of redesigned disability covers expected over the next year. Phil and Ash shared thoughts on how these changes might impact advisers and clients alike.

✅ AI and strategy sessions: Phil met with advisers from across the country to share ideas on how AI is reshaping the advice space. He also joined Taz, Trent, and Azaria in Brisbane for a two-day strategy workshop with Slipstream Coaching, mapping out Skye’s long-term goals.

✅ Industry headlines: Phil discussed his RiskInfo panel appearance, where he called general advice in insurance a “ticking time bomb,” and shared thoughts on the growing crossover between advisers and finfluencers.

✅ Client stories: Eddie helped a client keep their income protection in place after changing jobs to study full time, and Ash found a way to secure cover for a flight nurse with an aviation exclusion. Phil shared a powerful trauma claim story that reminded everyone why getting insurance right really matters.

✅ Baking Corner: Ash returned with chocolate meringues, hand whisked from scratch (yes, really). Newcomer Marie joined as guest judge, and the verdict was sweet: an 8.5/10 from Phil and a 7/10 from Marie.

Looking ahead, the team kicks off the Skye 1,000km ride for the Cancer Council, welcomes a new associate, and gears up for their quarterly team meeting.
