🎧 This week on POMpod
In this week’s episode of POMpod—The Peace of Mind Podcast, we talk about estate planning for LGBTQ+ families in Texas—specifically what isn’t automatic, what’s often overlooked, and how planning can affirm and protect your family as it actually exists.
This episode is especially important if:
One parent isn’t biologically related to the child
You rely on chosen family for care or support
You assume marriage covers medical and financial decisions
Your documents haven’t been updated in years
In this episode, we cover:
Why legal documents often matter more than biology
Where default Texas law falls short for LGBTQ+ families
How to protect non-biological parents and chosen family
Medical and financial decision-making during emergencies
What thoughtful planning can prevent—without fear-based tactics
(Most listeners finish this episode in one sitting.)
Estate planning isn’t about fitting your family into a legal box. It’s about making sure the law reflects your reality—and the people you trust are empowered to act.
If you’re ready to talk through what protection looks like for your family—whether you’re starting fresh or updating older documents—you can book a Peace of Mind Planning Session with our team.
