Live Fully, Die Ready- The Digital Legacy Conversation We Avoid

About this episode
Death does not have to be a family emergency. Niki Weiss, a digital thanatologist, shows why the smartest move you can make is to build your plan while life is good, everyone is of sound mind, and the paperwork is still manageable.If you think end-of-life planning is only about wills, this conversation will change the way you think about your phone, your passwords, your photos, your subscriptions, your bank accounts, and even your AI chats. Dave Roberts and Niki break down why we are the first generation to die with more digital assets than physical ones, and why that makes legacy planning more urgent than ever.You’ll discover:Why “digital hygiene” is now a real part of adultingThe legal, financial, physical, and digital pieces every family needs to organizeWhy a HIPAA release form matters the moment a child turns 18How legacy contacts on iPhone and Android can save your loved ones from court orders and chaosThe “intention-action gap” that keeps people from ever getting startedWhy different end-of-life scenarios require different playbooksNiki also explains how her company, Endevo, uses a “Final Playbook” to help people prepare for three very different paths: sudden death, terminal diagnosis, and long-term care.
