About Us

Planning education.
No strings attached.

We teach you how trusts, wills, and estate plans actually work — without selling you any services (we don’t write estate plans or offer trust administration). Our only goal is to help you build the right team and face life's big moments with confidence. Here, you can buy easy to understand books (link), join our community (you will get our First Steps Toolkit for free)(link), and watch/listen to our podcasts.

Our Mission

Help everyone over 18 have a functional estate plan

Plan For This offers estate planning education without selling any plans or legal services. We teach you how to work with the right professionals, express your preferences, and maintain your plan so it serves you when you need it most.

You'll learn about Trusts, Wills, Durable Powers of Attorney, and Health Care Directives — and how all the pieces work together.

What We Stand For
No legal advice, no services sold
We teach you how to build your own team — we never replace the professionals on it.
Nuanced, honest education
Trusts and estates learning is nuanced. We explore your possibilities without simplifying away what matters.
Planning as a life skill
Estate planning is about living well, not just dying well. We connect it to longevity, family, and peace of mind.
Community-powered learning
Our PlanFan community shares ideas, asks questions, and grows together — because planning is better together.
