  • Estate Planning for Young Adults | Young Minds Podcast | Episode 153
    Mar 9 2026

    Let's be honest — most young people don't think about estate planning. It sounds like something for much later in life… right?

    In this episode, we chat with Alannah Matchett from Harwood Andrews about why things like wills, powers of attorney, super, and even your digital accounts actually matter more than you might think.

    We talk about what happens if you don't have a will, why your super could be worth a lot more than you realise, and the simple steps you can take now to make things easier for the people around you.

    It's not as complicated (or scary) as it sounds — just a practical conversation about planning ahead.

    🎧 Have a listen. Your future self will thank you.
