You’re kidding me right? I just found out someone hired last year makes 20K more than me. We have the same title and similar books of business. How do I talk about this, who do I tell because I'm not okay at all.

This happens all the time. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that person was hired after you. I don't know if you do talk about this to anyone, aside from venting to friends/family/Fishbowl strangers. You can bring it up to your boss, but unless you've got better justification than "they're earning more, I deserve the same," it's not likely to result in your pay being bumped.

It happens more often than you think.
