Difficult Discussions Seminar

This two-hour online seminar focuses on the conversations families avoid until circumstances force them: what happens when someone can no longer make decisions, how to talk about long-term care, how to prepare for cognitive decline, and how to honor someone’s wishes at the end of life. These are not easy topics, but they are essential ones — and most families have never been taught how to approach them.

The seminar provides a structured, compassionate framework for opening these discussions before a crisis. You will learn how to initiate the conversation, how to navigate emotional resistance, how to listen for what matters most, and how to document wishes in a way that reduces conflict and confusion later. The goal is not to make decisions for you, but to help you create the space where decisions can be discussed openly and respectfully.

This is not medical, legal, or financial advice. Those decisions remain with you, your physicians, and your advisors. Instead, the seminar focuses on communication — the human side of planning — so families can move through difficult seasons with clarity, compassion, and alignment.

It is education for the conversations that shape a family’s future.
