3 Reasons We Run From Estate Planning

Posted by Jacquelyn Roys Clifton | Jul 16, 2026 | 0 Comments

For many people, estate planning feels as appealing as a root canal. But everyone wants to ensure their loved ones are cared for and their assets to the right people. Whether you're leaving $10 or $10 million, married or single, with kids or without, estate planning helps make it happen.

Don't let these common obstacles hold you back:

1. Who Wants to Talk About Death?

We get it—conversations about death, illness, and money can feel uncomfortable. But a few minutes of discomfort is a small price to pay for ensuring your loved ones are protected. The alternative—getting sick or passing away without a plan—can leave a mess for your family to clean up.

2. It's Never the Right Time.

Life is busy, and there's always something more urgent. But the truth is, there's never a “perfect” time. Take the first step by scheduling a Plan with a Purpose Strategy Session. Even if you don't move forward, you'll leave with a clear understanding of what's needed to protect your family.
