About This Episode

Sheila once again explains something Kelsey Jae (and maybe you) knew nothing about… Advance Directives! The girls talk further about a living will, as well as all the different types of wills and documentations you should work out, so your loved ones aren’t wondering once you’re gone! Sheila explains that Advance Directives are ONLY used if you cannot communicate your own wishes, and they’re legally binding. She provides a resource for this on her website and Amazon, a booklet called, ‘Death Over Dinner’ and talks about various clients and scenarios she’s encountered.  Another resource we love is Five Wishes, but to be clear, please know that requirements by state are vast, varied, and ever-changing so we do recommend contacting your state for more and working with an attorney. As always, nothing in the episode or our materials is legal advice!  Please consider leaving us a review on iTunes and Spotify and following us on ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠!
