Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.
The stock market is taking a big swing upward right now, and Coinbase investors especially are having a moment. Today, Linda is unpacking why this is happening, including Coinbase's recent inclusion in the S&P 500 index. Linda also talks about the other positive incfluences on the market, including the pause on tariffs (for now). Remember: these gains are great... but they won't last forever. So manage your portfolio responsibly and don't make any sudden moves.
