    Planning Ahead Before a Crisis: Elder Law, Family Advocacy & Peace of Mind

    Most families don’t think about elder law or long-term planning until something happens — and by then, options are often limited. In Episode 2 of For Mature Audiences Only, we’re joined by Archer Law Office founding and managing partner Carl Archer to talk about what planning before a crisis really means, and how the right decisions can protect families emotionally, legally, and financially. Carl explains why documents like powers of attorney and healthcare proxies matter while you’re alive, how proper planning allows families to step back into their roles as sons, daughters, and spouses — not just decision-makers — and why this process is ultimately about peace of mind, not paperwork. This episode is for: Families caring for aging parentsAdult children trying to plan aheadAnyone unsure what elder law actually coversCaregivers feeling overwhelmed or unpreparedFor Mature Audiences Only exists to help families navigate caregiving, aging, and planning ahead with clarity — before they’re forced to make decisions under pressure. For Mature Audiences Only is a podcast dedicated to real conversations, honest stories, and practical guidance for families navigating caregiving, aging, and senior living.
