Join host and owner of Hummingbird Wealth Management, Laura Johnson, as she shares stories of how a lack of communication about final wishes has brought families to blows. She draws on decades of professional and personal experience to explain why it is not only important to complete your estate planning documents, but also to communicate your wishes and those documents to the people named in them and other loved ones. Laura then explains the documents that include a will, revocable trust, durable power of attorney, health care power of attorney, and advanced directive. Communication is powerful, and failing to share your wishes with your loved ones can destroy relationships once you are gone. So be sure to get your affairs in order and communicate your wishes to your friends and family!
