Most people think of wills, trusts, and life insurance when it comes to estate planning, but what about your digital footprint? In this episode, Sara sits down with Certified Executor Advisor and best-selling author David Edey who shares why digital asset planning is one of the most overlooked yet essential components of a complete estate plan. From passwords and photos to social media and subscription services, David explains how failing to plan for your digital life can create unnecessary stress for your loved ones. He opens up about the emotional and logistical chaos following his parents’ deaths, and how that experience shaped his mission to help others prepare more thoughtfully. This episode is a powerful reminder that your legacy lives not just in what you leave behind—but in how thoughtfully you prepare.
