In Part 2 of this two-part series, host Cheryl Scheidell continues her conversation with longtime friend and trusted advisor Jayson Walker of Netvest Financial. Building on the foundation from Part 1, this episode focuses on practical solutions — how families can avoid probate, protect themselves during incapacity, prevent conflict, and create a plan that provides peace of mind.

Cheryl opens with a refresher on probate and why it can be stressful, expensive, and public. From there, Jayson walks listeners through trust planning, legal tools for living protection, and how proactive planning keeps families out of court and out of crisis.
