How can families plan ahead to protect their assets, support loved ones, and ensure their wishes are honored? On this week’s LIFE Ahead, host Sandy Thomson welcomes attorney Heidi B. Adair and magistrate Phillip E. Houk to discuss the fundamentals of estate planning, including wills, trusts, probate avoidance, long-term care considerations, and the critical documents every adult should have in place.

This episode explores how proper planning can safeguard family wealth, reduce conflict, and create smoother transitions during life’s most challenging moments. Viewers will learn the differences between revocable and irrevocable trusts, how advance directives work, strategies for protecting a family home, and the importance of tailoring plans for unique circumstances—such as blended families or individuals with special needs.

LIFE Ahead airs Wednesdays at 7:30PM on PBS Fort Wayne — your weekly, commercial-free call-in resource dedicated to health, wellness, legal education, and life planning for adults of all ages in our community.
