Family Love Letter: Connecting with the Next Generation

A Keynote with Joy Yi Boatwright, CFP®, BS ’92

Research indicates that approximately $85 trillion will be distributed across generations over the next 25 years. Is your family fully prepared for intergenerational wealth transfer? When is the best time to prepare? Regardless of your “wealth,” this event aims to equip you and your loved ones with the knowledge to navigate this transition smoothly.

Keynote Highlights

Join us for a meaningful discussion on how the Family Love Letter can serve as a roadmap, using storytelling to gather essential information and facilitate conversations on challenging topics. This initiative is designed to provide the gift of information, encompassing stories, hopes, and desires, to support families during times of incapacity or loss.

Discussion Topics

• How does the Family Love Letter use storytelling to facilitate intergenerational wealth transfer? 
• How can I reduce the emotional and financial stress on family members during transitions? 
• What steps can I take now to ensure my intentions are honored and my family is supported? 
• How do I initiate and facilitate the often-uncomfortable conversation about legacy planning?
