So tell me, how did you come about to write that book? Like, what, what sort of prompted it?

Probably it was back in 2001.

Uh, I was at a coaching course, and you had to kind of write the date that you were going to die and assume that you had five more years to live, and what were the five things or top four things that you would wanna do if you knew that you would be healthy and then all of a sudden drop dead.

And one of them, of course, ch- spend more time with the family, uh, travel more, do something with a charitable organization that would make impact.

And number four on my list was write a book.

And so in 2020, I had an opportunity as a result of COVID-19 and the world shutting down to finally put a pen to paper and said, "You know what? I'm gonna do this." I have, uh, a lot of stories to share, and I'm so tired of seeing families broken, suing each other, destroyed as a result of the wealth builder or the wealth creator not taking the time to seriously plan, have conversations.

And what I found after 35 years in the family business and estate planning industry is that strong businesses don't make strong families.
