Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Attorney Whitney Knox Lee.

Explains practical estate‑planning strategies—wills, trusts, powers of attorney—and how entrepreneurs, families, and especially parents of disabled children can protect assets, avoid costly probate, and maintain eligibility for critical benefits. The conversation also touches on integrating insurance with estate planning, small‑business contingency planning, and Lee’s personal mission and background in civil rights work.

Purpose of the Interview
Educate listeners on estate planning as a wealth‑preservation strategy (not just documents)—to reduce court costs, taxes, and confusion for families.
Clarify the differences and roles of wills, trusts, and powers of attorney, including when each is appropriate and how they work together.]
Highlight special considerations for entrepreneurs and families with disabled children or aging relatives, including insurance, operating agreements, and special‑needs planning.
Share Lee’s values and practice approach, including culturally responsive service and sustainable advocacy rooted in prior civil‑rights work.

Key Takeaways 1) Wills vs. Trusts vs. Powers of Attorney
A will is not the plan—it’s just one piece and still goes through probate, which can be slow and expensive; think of a will as a “letter to the judge.]
Revocable living trusts can help families bypass probate, reduce delays, and retain more control over how assets are managed after death.
Powers of attorney (financial and health) are essential for incapacity scenarios; even 18‑year‑olds heading to college should have them so parents can access information if needed.

2) Why Insurance Belongs in the Plan
Life insurance can protect the family’s ability to keep the home by paying off a remaining mortgage or covering living expenses—turning an asset into a sustainable legacy rather than a burden.
For entrepreneurs, key‑person insurance can replace income when the owner can’t work, keeping the business afloat.

3) Minimizing Probate Costs and Taxes
Probate involves court filings and legal fees; in some states fees scale with estate size (example discussed: percentage‑based fees in other jurisdictions), which can significantly erode wealth passed to heirs. Proper planning reduces those leakages.

4) Special‑Needs and Elder Planning
Parents of children on need‑based benefits (e.g., Medicaid) must avoid transfers that jeopardize eligibility; the right trust structures preserve benefits while providing support.
Elder law planning anticipates long‑term care costs (nursing home, assisted living, in‑home care) so families don’t have to deplete assets later.

5) Business Continuity for Owners
Establish operating agreements and buy‑sell agreements that spell out who runs the business if the principal is incapacitated; pair with business powers of attorney.

6) Values, Audience, and Access
Lee intentionally centers Black and Brown women and their families, grounding services in community uplift and transparent referrals to trusted financial pros (no paid referral arrangements).
Contact approach: 15‑minute intake, then a four‑meeting process (legacy planning → design → review → signing).

Notable Quotes (for pull‑quotes & captions)
“Think of a will as a letter to the judge… a will still has to go through probate court.
“A trust allows families to bypass probate altogether so they aren’t paying legal fees or leaving things to people who want to challenge the will.
“Life insurance is a huge tool—it can help the family pay off the mortgage so they can keep the home and the equity.”
“Estate planning is a strategy—not just documents.”
“Even 18‑year‑olds should have powers of attorney—parents can’t just call doctors once kids are legal adults.”
“I stay in my lane—I’m an attorney. I work closely with trusted financial professionals and make non‑compensated referrals.”
“For special‑needs planning, don’t jeopardize need‑based benefits—use the right trust so support continues.
“I want to build a sustainable practice that lets me serve my community and rest well, aligned with my family and values.”

Quick Action Items (for listeners inspired by the episode)
Draft or update POAs (financial and health) for every adult in the household, including college‑age children.
Evaluate whether a revocable living trust makes sense to avoid probate and retain post‑death control.
For business owners: review operating agreement / buy‑sell, add key‑person insurance, and create a business POA.
Families with special‑needs dependents: consult on special‑needs trusts to protect benefits.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed T.M. Robinson-Mosley.

Founder of The Playbook, an award‑winning mental‑health‑performance sports‑tech company—joins Rushion McDonald to discuss how her platform is transforming athlete care, team culture, and performance measurement. The Playbook uses AI‑powered, gamified psychological assessments to measure stress, resilience, and overall mental well‑being across youth, collegiate, professional, and military sports environments.

Mosley explains how mental health—long treated as unmeasurable and stigmatized—is finally becoming trackable, private, and actionable. The Playbook provides real‑time alerts, data‑driven insights, and ecosystem‑wide tools for coaches, trainers, clinicians, and entire organizations.

She also shares her journey as a non‑coding tech founder, the scaling challenges brought on by the pandemic, and the broader impact The Playbook is poised to have across corporate, construction, military, and other high‑stress fields.

Purpose of the Interview1. Introduce and explain The Playbook

To present The Playbook as a next‑generation mental health performance platform that quantifies mental well‑being, provides action plans, and enhances team culture. 

2. Elevate the conversation around athlete mental health

Mosley breaks down stigma, highlights real athlete stories, and explains why mental analytics are as critical as physical analytics. 

3. Show how the platform uses technology to prevent crises

The Playbook provides early detection, privacy protection, and immediate care support—catching problems before they become crises.

4. Highlight the expansion beyond sports

Although built in sports, the platform is already being requested by industries like construction, healthcare, first responders, and more. ]

5. Demonstrate the business model

As a SaaS B2B platform, The Playbook sells licensed subscriptions to organizations, teams, and associations.

Key Takeaways1. Mental health can be measured—and must be

The Playbook converts psychological assessments into quantifiable metrics similar to heart rate or step count.
Athletes receive resilience, stress, and well‑being scores—like a “mental batting average.” 

2. The platform offers real-time alerts

If an athlete’s score enters the “red zone,” coaches/clinicians receive immediate alerts with steps to take within 24 hours. 

3. Privacy is paramount

The Playbook is HIPAA‑compliant, mobile, secure, and built to protect athlete data from misuse (e.g., contract negotiations).

4. Mental analytics are the next frontier of sports

Teams already use physical analytics. Now they can use mental analytics to track performance, prevent burnout, and reduce crises.

5. Built for the entire ecosystem—not just athletes

Coaches, front offices, sports medicine staff, and military leadership also use the platform—promoting culture-wide mental health. 

6. The Playbook is expanding beyond sports

Industries with high stress—construction, medicine, law, emergency responders, veterinarians—are already approaching Mosley to adapt the system. 

7. A critical solution for underserved communities

The platform makes mental health care accessible, private, digital, and stigma‑free—especially for youth and communities of color. 

8. Performance is universal

Whether you’re an athlete, military member, parent, or worker—your mental state impacts how you perform. Performance is “agnostic.” [

9. Mosley’s journey shows innovation can come from anywhere

She is a non‑coding tech founder, originally trained as a psychologist working across the NBA, NFL, NCAA, and Olympic sports. [T.M. ROBINSON MOSLEY | Txt]

Notable QuotesOn what The Playbook does


“We measure mental health metrics like resilience, stress and overall well‑being using gamified psych assessments.”


“Mental health becomes measurable—like a batting average.”[

On why athletes need this
“Elite athletes report battling depression and anxiety so severe they find it difficult to function, let alone perform.” 

On the power of technology
“If we don’t measure something, we’re saying it doesn’t matter.”
“We use AI and machine learning to quantify mental health status.” 

On privacy
“We are a HIPAA‑compliant platform… we don’t sell your data.” 

On team culture
“Building a winning team culture is everybody’s everyday work.” 

On mental and physical health
“If you are not mentally healthy, you are not able to perform at the highest level.” 

On the future outside sports
“Who doesn’t want to train like an athlete?”
“Performance is agnostic.” 

On purpose
“How do we make something exclusive accessible?”
“This is mental health care—it’s just a different version of it.” 

In One Sentence

The interview reveals how Dr. T.M. Robinson-Mosley’s Playbook uses AI‑driven mental health metrics to revolutionize athlete care, provide real‑time performance insights, and expand mental wellness tools far beyond sports into everyday life.
