Is receiving an inheritance a windfall of opportunity or a tangled web of expectations and emotions? Mel and Darlene dive deep into the financial, psychological, and relational dimensions of inheritances, sharing real-life scenarios and actionable tips for empowering yourself financially—whether or not a windfall is in your future.
