I'm thrilled to be joined by Tim Gorman, a real estate broker and the author of "Tangled Legacy," who shares his personal journey and insights into this crucial topic. Tim's book was inspired by his own experiences following the passing of his father, who was both his business partner and mentor. We discuss the importance of preparing for the inevitable and how addressing these matters early can prevent complications for loved ones. Tim offers practical tips on starting the legacy planning process, emphasizing the importance of leaving behind not only financial assets but also values and intentions.
