Risk Takers and Trailblazers: Women in Insurance

Amplifying women's voices in insurance, insurtech, leadership & life.

Risk Takers and Trailblazers is a podcast hosted by four women — Helen Riquinha, Diane Horsfield, Jen Pugsley, and Tanya Coburn — who bring real talk to the topics that matter most to professional women in insurance and insurtech.

Now in its fourth season with 30+ episodes, the show covers everything from leadership and career growth to the conversations the industry often avoids: perimenopause in the workplace, burnout, imposter syndrome, ADHD and neurodivergence, toxic bosses, and work-life balance.

Rooted in authenticity and community, this is a space where women in insurance and insurtech can hear stories that sound like their own — and feel less alone in navigating them.
