Are you certain your family and your business would stay protected if something happened to you tomorrow?

Most business owners assume a simple will is enough—until a crisis exposes gaps they never saw coming. In this episode, estate and legacy expert David Edey breaks down why so many Canadian families end up in years-long legal battles, even when wills exist. He shares the real-world consequences of avoiding tough conversations, overlooking succession planning, or assuming loved ones can “figure it out.” If you’ve ever wondered whether your executor is prepared, whether your business could run without you, or whether your family is set up for clarity instead of conflict, this conversation will hit home.

You’ll walk away knowing:

  • Why wills fail—and the conversations every family must have to avoid messy court fights and broken relationships.
  • How to safeguard your business through succession plans, executor preparation, and simple mechanisms that prevent partners from being forced into unwanted arrangements.
  • The practical tools—like red-envelope systems, digital-asset planning, and legacy blueprints—that make this the greatest gift of love you can leave behind.
