Sharing sensitive information with family requires a balance between transparency and privacy. This guide explores strategies for selective disclosure. You might share funeral wishes with all adult children but keep the details of your will private until the appropriate time. Or, provide your healthcare agent with full medical details while giving other family members a general summary. We discuss using different ‘Rooms’ for different audiences and the importance of clear communication about what is being shared and why. These methods allow you to provide necessary guidance and comfort to your loved ones while maintaining boundaries and preventing misunderstandings or premature disclosures.

A filing system that only makes sense to you is of little help to your family. This guide provides a logical, universal framework for organising all essential documents. We recommend clear digital folders (e.g., 01_Legal, 02_Financial, 03_Medical) and consistent, descriptive file naming (e.g., “Will_JohnSmith_2025.pdf”). The article emphasises creating a simple master index or instruction sheet that outlines the system and lists key contacts. This approach transforms a potential nightmare of scattered paperwork into a user-friendly ‘family admin’ centre. It empowers your executor or loved ones to find any document they need quickly, efficiently, and without frustration.
