What happens when decades of hard work and accumulated wealth aren’t matched by well-considered legal and family planning? In this powerful episode, Sandy sits down with Rick Shera—partner at Lowndes Jordan and seasoned legal advisor with over 25 years’ experience—to unpack the real role trusts should play in shaping a family legacy.

They explore what makes a trust truly "enlightened," how to prevent intergenerational fallout, and why documents alone aren’t enough. Together, they dive deep into the tension between tradition and modern governance, the importance of intergenerational conversations, and how families can future-proof their legacy with clarity, structure, and shared purpose.

Whether you're a founder, trustee, or next-gen family member, this episode will challenge you to think beyond compliance—and towards connection.
