I know that legacy planning affects every single generation. As a mom of two, I know firsthand how important it is to protect their interests. For our parents, aunts and uncles, grandparents, and others who came before us, estate planning is the key to smooth transitions in so many senses of the word.

And for the “sandwich generation” in the middle, like me? Estate planning is exactly the kind of thing we’re likely to delay, delay, delay, until we can’t anymore.

As a young Black woman, a wife, and a mom, I’m looking out for those who might not think to act on estate planning and legacy planning for themselves.
