About this episode

This episode explores the concept of 'sadmin' and the importance of organizing financial affairs for personal and familial protection.

In this episode, we unpack the concept of “sadmin” - the emotional and often avoided financial tasks that matter most. From the Swedish idea of death cleaning to the practical importance of setting up a lasting power of attorney, we explore how getting your affairs in order can protect both you and your loved ones. We share personal insights, common pitfalls, and why these tough conversations are worth having sooner rather than later. The information provided is for general guidance only and is not legal advice. You may wish to seek advice from a solicitor or qualified professional when setting up a lasting power of attorney. Circumstances vary and the right approach will depend on your personal situation. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
