My guest today is Chanel Reynolds, founder of Get Your Sh*t Together and author of What Matters Most: The Get Your Sh*t Together Guide to Wills, Money, Insurance, and Life's "What-ifs". Get Your Sh*t Together is the ultimate guide to getting your affairs in order - from wills and advance directives to insurance, finances, and relationships - before the unthinkable happens.
On July 17, 2009, Chanel Reynolds’ husband, José, was struck by a car while cycling near their home in Seattle. In the wake of her husband’s untimely death, Reynolds quickly realized she was completely unprepared for what came next. What was the password to his phone? Did they sign their wills? How much insurance did they have? Could she afford the house? And what the hell was probate anyway? Simply put, when life went sideways, she didn’t have her sh*t together.
As it turns out, most of us don’t, either. We’re too busy, in denial, overwhelmed by too much information, uncertain where to start, or just uncomfortable having those difficult conversations.
Chanel learned the hard way that hoping for the best is not a plan, but you don’t have to. Drawing on her firsthand experience, expert advice, and the unparalleled resources she’s compiled for her celebrated website, Chanel joins me to lend a human voice to a warren of checklists and forms and emotional confusion, advising listeners on:
- Why it's nonnegotioable to get your sh*t together while the stakes are low
- What you risk losing if you don't (think: money, assets, control, decision-making power)
- A step-by-step checklist of what to do and where to start
- Planning ahead before something should life-changing happens
- What to do in the moment once something has happened
- Navigating the estate of a loved one who has passed away
- How to approach a "get your sh*t together" conversation with reluctant relatives or aging parents
- References, e.g. companies and coaches to help you along the way
- Where to safely keep all your information once it's organized digitally and physcailly
- How often to update it
- What happens when someone in your family turns into an a-hole during difficult times
- Who is and is not responsible for the debt and of a deceased loved one
