Here's How To Discuss Money Effectively With Your Parents

Ready For Retirement

Meet Ari Taublieb 👋 If you didn’t already know, Ari and I work together at Root Financial, and we thought it was finally time to launch a podcast series together.

In our very first episode, we dive into a topic that many people shy away from: talking to your parents about money. Whether it’s discussing their estate plans, long-term care, or the tough conversations around wealth, these talks can feel awkward—but they’re absolutely essential.

In this episode, we break down:
▪️ Our personal stories and insights on how to approach these conversations
▪️ Tips for handling these talks with grace and understanding
▪️ Strategies to ensure peace of mind for everyone involved

If you’ve ever felt uncertain about talking money or navigating estate planning with your parents, this episode is for you.
