Ep 7: Balancing Life and Leadership: Kira Gainey's Financial Journey
Kira Gainey’s journey began on the farms outside Baltimore, Maryland, where her lifelong passion for horses led her to competitive riding along the East Coast throughout her college years, eventually steering her toward a career as an Equestrian Coach.
Driven by a profound passion for learning and exploring life, Kira found her purpose in helping others recognize their potential. Her coaching and teaching career, which spanned over two decades, saw her mentoring a diverse range of individuals, from college equestrians to preschoolers.
In 2015, Kira sought to broaden her impact and explore new opportunities by joining her husband in their growing life insurance agency at Symmetry Financial Group. Initially working part-time and taking on various behind-the-scenes roles, she decided to fully immerse herself in the business. In 2018, she completed her licensing, and by 2021, she transitioned from teaching to working full-time in the insurance industry.
Today, Kira serves as the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Gainey Financial Group, where she oversees daily operations. Despite her demanding role, she continues to manage the day-to-day activities on their family farm, balancing life with her two children, two dogs, and, of course, two horses.
