In this episode, I explain why so many aging parents resist signing a power of attorney and why it's usually not about trust. I walk you through what is actually happening emotionally beneath the resistance, including fears around loss of control, decline, and mortality. You'll learn how to reframe the conversation in a way that feels respectful instead of threatening, along with the exact language that helps families move forward without conflict. This episode is about creating legal clarity before a crisis forces difficult decisions.
