Estate Planning and More – Interview w Wendy Witt – Smilecast 130
You Don’t Have to Own an Estate to Do Estate Planning!
Wendy Witt, founder of AMillionFamilies.org, is one of my guests on the Caregiver Smile Summit. She is an Attorney and her social enterprise is focused on protecting a million families with responsible planning. She has mentored over 8,000 elder law attorneys, empowering them to protect more families. During the course of our interview, it became clear that in some ways, estate planning is misnamed, because it implies that one must have extensive assets to even consider an estate plan. That is not true.
“Everyone needs an estate plan because it is simply about control and protecting the ones that you love,” she said.

Conscious Aging – Smilecast 129
Conscious Aging – A Way of Life
As part of my Caregiver Smile Summit, I have had the pleasure of interviewing more than 50 experts in the health, aging and caregiving fields. Dr. Maria Zayas, a practicing psychologist and a faculty member of the Psychology Department at Brenau University, is one of those experts. Together we explored the topic of conscious aging.
Caregivers Are People Too – Respect Them
With the population living longer and healthier lives, it often happens that partners are thrust into a caregiving situation when they themselves are in their 50s and 60s.
Caregivers are beginning to deal with the aging process for themselves and need to be conscious of their own needs. Dr. Zayas shares that this is a time for people to reflect on their life and look at their legacy.
