Episode Title: “If a Crisis Happened Tonight… What Families Should Prepare Now”
Guest: Leslie A. Davis, Senior Advocate

What would happen if your loved one had a medical emergency tonight?
Would you know where the documents are? Who has legal authority? What care options are available?

In this eye-opening episode of Solving Life’s Next Chapter, host Lydia Wietsma, Certified Probate and Senior Real Estate Specialist with NextHome Power Realty, is joined by senior living expert and advocate Leslie A. Davis to discuss the one conversation families avoid — until it’s too late.

With nearly two decades of experience guiding families through senior housing decisions, assisted living placements, and crisis situations, Leslie shares what truly happens behind the scenes when families are unprepared. Together, Lydia and Leslie walk listeners through the practical steps every family should take now to avoid panic, court involvement, and rushed decisions.

In this episode, you’ll learn:


The most common mistakes families make before a crisis


Why waiting for “the right time” often creates more stress


The essential legal documents every adult should have in place


How to organize medical, financial, and care information


What families misunderstand most about assisted living and memory care


How early planning preserves dignity and control

This episode is not about fear — it’s about preparation, clarity, and protecting the people you love most.

If you’ve ever thought, “We should probably get that organized,” this conversation is your sign to start now.
