Becky Robison on What Really Happens When Your Parents Die


Listen Later

When Becky Robinson lost both her parents within three years, she discovered the overwhelming chaos of settling an estate, even when her parents had planned ahead. From death certificates to "ghost cars" titled to deceased parents, from medallion signature guarantees to probate court confusion, Becky shares the real, messy truth about what happens after someone dies on her website, deadparentswhatnow.com. Now the author of "My Parents Are Dead, What Now?" (coming January 2026), Becky breaks down everything from the practical to the legal to the emotional challenges of navigating life after your parents die. She explains why grief and paperwork don't mix well and what she wishes everyone knew before they're thrown into this situation.
