On July 17, 2009, Chanel Reynolds’ spouse, José, was struck by a car while cycling near their house in Seattle. In the wake of her husband’s untimely death, Reynolds quickly understood that she was completely unprepared for what came next. What about The What Matters Many: The GET THE Shit Together Guideline to Wills, Money, Insurance, and Life’s ‘What-ifs’ was the security password to his mobile phone? Did they sign their wills? Just how much insurance do they possess? Could she afford the house? And what the hell was probate in any case? To put it simply, when life proceeded to go sideways she didn’t possess her shit collectively.

As it works out, the majority of us don’t either. We’re as well occupied, in denial, overwhelmed by an excessive amount of information, uncertain the place to start, or just uncomfortable having those challenging conversations.

Drawing on her behalf first-hand experience, professional advice, and the unparalleled resources she’s put together for her celebrated website, Reynolds lends a human being tone of voice to a warren of checklists and forms and emotional confusion, showing visitors how to:
