Over the next few months, I'm going to be featuring a "where are they now" series of conversations with authors from The Great Pause. My first conversation is with financial advisor Jackie Baldwin. During this conversation, Jackie shares how her clients have been able to ride the storm of the covid-related economy, and how her love of the Connecticut River has inspired her solo authorial debut. Oh, and I may actually have at least a conceptual understanding of cryptocurrency... y'know, as a concept. I love this conversation. Jackie's presence is so real and authentic, and I learned a lot during this conversation. I hope you do as well.

About Jackie: Jacqueline A. Baldwin, CLTC® Investment Advisor Representative at B & L Financial Architects, a General Agency with the companies of OneAmerica®

Jackie is passionate about eradicating financial vulnerability. She specializes in advising women who feel financially unprepared for the big "what ifs" in life, so they can feel confident knowing they have solutions for weathering any kind of storm.

Jackie felt financially vulnerable throughout her former marriage. After years of being kept in the dark, the dreadful state of her marital finances was fully revealed during the divorce process. She vowed never to feel that level of vulnerability again. From this experience, her desire to help others feel safe, secure, and enlightened was born.

Great confidence comes from knowing that, with Jackie's guidance, her clients can not only survive the big "what ifs" in life, including economic challenges, they can thrive and experience a vibrant future.

A registered financial services professional since 1986, Jackie serves on the Board of Directors of the Society of Financial Service Professionals, Hartford Chapter, as President. She holds the Certified in Long-Term Care (CLTC) designation and is registered to do business in the following states: AK, CT, FL, MA, MO, NY, PA, TX, and VA. She carries the following licenses and registrations: Life & Health License, FINRA Series 6, 7, 24, 63, and 65.
