As entrepreneurs, we often embody this sense of invincibility - running off adrenaline and hustling our way to the top. We don’t stop or pause to think about potential adversities or worst-case scenarios that could leave us, or our loved ones, reeling. This is where Shannon Wilson comes in…

 

The founding attorney of Legacy Legal, an estate planning firm dedicated to helping create legacies one family at a time, Chloe joins Sherrell in this episode to have the conversation many of us avoid. And reveals why we should not only normalize discussing death but how it sets her clients up for success rather than fear of the unknown. 

 

KEY POINTS:

- What inspired Legacy Legal?

- Who are Shannon Wilson’s favorite customers?

- How Shannon designed her legacy plans 

- Why we need to normalize talking about death

- The lessons learned as an entrepreneur 

 

QUOTABLES:

“When we talk about legacy planning, we're talking about living through today.”

“What do you want your legacy to look like? Do I want to end up in a coma, and nobody knows how to even pay my bills?”

“I think about how uncomfortable the conversation is but how much we have to normalize it.”
