The Death Readiness Podcast: Not your dad’s estate planning podcast

You're the one prepping for your child's IEP meeting while trying to talk your aging dad out of getting a puppy. You're booking medical appointments, managing the money, juggling work emails during school pickup, and still expected to know who has practice, rehearsal, or a field trip tomorrow.

And somewhere in the middle of all that, you're supposed to figure out estate planning.

The Death Readiness Podcast: Not Your Dad’s Estate Planning Podcast is an estate planning podcast for women juggling aging parents, growing children, family finances, and approximately a thousand things nobody else seems to know need doing.

From Wills and trusts to powers of attorney, probate, and the difficult conversations families tend to avoid, this podcast helps you understand the legal and practical decisions that come with taking care of the people you love.

Do your parents need a trust? What happens if someone dies without a Will? What does it actually mean to serve as agent under a power of attorney? How does probate work? And how do you help aging parents who insist they're perfectly fine when you can see that they're struggling?

Hosted by Jill Mastroianni, an estate planning and probate attorney with more than a decade of experience, The Death Readiness Podcast tackles the legal questions and family conversations that most of us would rather avoid.

Through real-life stories, practical explanations, and a healthy dose of humor, Jill helps you understand Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, probate, inheritance, and the decisions that come with caring for the people you love.

Whether you're creating your own estate plan, helping your parents get organized, or trying to figure out what to do after someone dies, you'll find information you can actually use.

You don't need to become an estate planning expert. You just need to understand enough to ask better questions, make informed decisions, and know where to start.

And if you're still waiting for your mom to give you the password to her computer, you're in good company.
