    Summary
     
    In this episode of Hey Docs!, Jill sits down with Brittany Frazier, CPA at Cane Waters and Associates, to explore the monumental wealth transfer happening over the next two decades. They discuss how this shift is shaping financial decision-making, generational differences, and the importance of proactive planning for wealth passage and values-based legacy building within families and practices. They discuss the critical need for early financial education and open family dialogues to ensure a smooth transition of wealth and values. The conversation also touches on the emotional aspects of wealth transfer, advocating for a purpose-driven approach aligned with family values to build a lasting legacy.
