Most estate plans don’t fail at death—they unravel long before it. Financial advisor Jon Hicks introduces the “Five D’s” of estate planning and explains why a will alone often leaves families exposed during life’s biggest transitions. This episode reframes estate planning as wealth transfer, covering incapacity, disability, downsizing, and the financial ripple effects that follow. Jon shares real-world lessons on why planning ahead can reduce stress, confusion, and costly decisions for surviving spouses and families. It’s a practical look at protecting legacy, control, and clarity when life doesn’t go as planned.
