Gina Jacobsen and Leslie Warren are both financial advisors based in Portland who specialize in helping women navigate financial confidence and life changes such as divorce or death of a partner. They say they notice patterns in the women they work with — often, they have their first interactions with money management later in life, and Jacobsen and Warren often take on the role of building up self-reliance in those who are managing these responsibilities for the first time.

They join us to talk about what it means to build financial confidence and competency out of uncertainty when navigating financial systems.

“Think Out Loud®” broadcasts live at noon every day and rebroadcasts at 8 p.m.
