The question isn't if you'll leave one—it's what you'll leave behind.

Together, they explore the difference between inheritance and heritage, why meaningful conversations often go unspoken, and how a simple letter can strengthen families, deepen relationships, and create lasting impact for generations. They also discuss why legacy planning isn't just valuable for families—it's an opportunity for financial advisors to serve clients in a more meaningful and transformational way.
