This is about the legacy you’ve built through years of hard work and dedication. It’s not just about what you’ve created, but also about ensuring it thrives and continues to make an impact long after you’re gone. It’s worth preserving!
We exist to help you improve it.
Talking about death doesn't have to be morbid - it's inevitable.
You've built this from the ground up.
What’s the plan for when you’re six feet deep?
Your business deserves to be more than just a memory.
Just to be clear… I don’t, but I know how your brand can - or not, depending on your wishes. However, I know the secret to ensuring your brand’s legacy is carried out just as you envision.
Planning for tomorrow alone is difficult enough, so where do you begin when planning for post-mortem?
But let’s face it, things rarely slow down. If you wait, it only gets harder and more overwhelming. You’re constantly juggling tasks, and the thought of planning for what happens after you’re gone feels like a distant concern, but it’s not.
I’LL DEAL WITH IT LATER WHEN THINGS SLOW DOWN.
The idea of making decisions about your business’s future can be intimidating. With so many details to manage, it’s easy to fear that you might miss a crucial step or overlook an important issue.
WHAT IF I FORGET SOMETHING IMPORTANT?
What would you say if I had the secret for you to live forever?
In the midst of death,
life persists.

Don't leave your loved ones empty-handed!
You need a clear succession plan.
You need to have your finances managed and organized.
You need to set strategies for client and brand continuity.
You need checklists for your loved one on immediate and next steps.
You’ve worked so hard to build something amazing, and now it’s time to think about what comes next.
Don't leave your business completely unattended.
They’re relying on you to know what to do.
That’s why I created the Death Folder to help you plan for the future and ensure that everything you’ve worked for is taken care of.
Imagine this: a loved one passes away unexpectedly, and suddenly, you’re faced with a mountain of paperwork, unanswered questions, and a business that’s at risk of falling apart. It’s a chaotic and stressful situation, where you’re left scrambling to figure out their wishes and manage something they poured their heart into.
But in all reality, it’s not just about paperwork and logistics. It’s the emotional toll of dealing with a loss while also trying to manage someone’s unfinished business. It’s overwhelming, stressful, and unfair to those left behind.
You don’t have to leave your loved ones in that position though. I haven’t faced this myself, but I’ve seen enough to know that it’s a situation you want to avoid.
Let’s talk about something we’ve all heard about, the mess left behind when someone passes away without a plan.
Planning ahead means your loved ones won’t have to deal with complex decisions and stress during a difficult time.

SYSTEMS STRATEGIST + FUTURE PLANNER
I’ve been there. Through my experience, I learned that the secret to a successful future isn’t just about handling the present; it’s about planning ahead. I am a passionate advocate of systems because, like many of you, I’ve faced significant challenges in my own life that made it essential to find effective ways to manage my business. Living with a chronic illness and navigating mental health issues, I discovered that well-designed systems were not just helpful—they were critical to keeping everything running smoothly.
