As someone managing two divorced, aging parents who have done no more than a simple will, it is a real mountain to climb! I wish that I had known about this podcast earlier! Mom’s planning is mostly done, and now I’m working with my Dad. I’m also doing my own planning so that my two children don’t have to worry about all this stuff when my decline begins or if I pass away unexpectedly. Thank you Jill!

Planning for myself and my husband. I want to make sure we leave our kids with everything organized and minimize any confusion or disputes. Jill is so approachable and I’m thankful that I have this podcast as a free resource available to me.

I thought I knew everything I needed to know about estate planning, but I was wrong. I love how Jill explains everything in such an accessible way. I’ve shared her podcast with my adult children, who love it, too. It’s been a great way for us to engage in family conversations about death and incapacity.
