As clients demand more holistic and human-centered planning experiences, financial advisors are increasingly being asked to support aging-related decisions, from home transitions to end-of-life care. For many, this “messy middle” between long-term care planning and estate settlement has become a blind spot.

So, what does it take to navigate life’s most challenging transitions, like elder care? In this episode of the WealthStack podcast, host Shannon Rosic chats with Lauren Clough, co-founder and CEO of bQuest. Together, they explore how bQuest is transforming the elder care conversation by seamlessly connecting advisors to resources that support families through the complexities of aging and beyond. Lauren shares her personal and professional journey, drawing from her family’s experiences with Alzheimer’s, and introduces a platform that bridges financial expertise with caregiving needs.
