Do you ever wonder what kind of legacy you’ll leave behind for your loved ones? Sure, your will might divvy up your tangible assets—but what about your values, stories, and wisdom?
I’m thrilled to have Susan Turnbull with us. Susan is the founder of Personal Legacy Advisors, a company dedicated to helping people create ethical wills to pass on their values, stories, and wisdom to future generations.
Susan is a former journalist turned expert in the field of ethical wills, and she is the author of The Wealth of Your Life: A Step-by-Step Guide for Creating Your Ethical Will. Her presentations, tools, and services are known for their personal and practical focus on estate, financial, and philanthropic planning.
In this conversation, we will delve into the concept of ethical wills, their history, and the misconceptions that surround them. We will also explore how creating an ethical will can be a meaningful way to pass on one’s accumulated wisdom and experience with intentionality.
We discussed:
