Would your family know what to do and have access to the necessary financial and insurance information if something happened to you? Imagine you were in a car accident or caught COVID-19 and ended up in the hospital for a month. Who would take care of your kids? Who would pay the bills? Who would communicate with the insurance companies? And would they know where to get the information they’d need?

If you are unsure of the answers to these questions, you need an Emergency Binder for your household.

With so much uncertainty these days, an Emergency Binder that could help another adult step in and temporarily take over duties of running your home for a short while is a must-have.

But, what does one put in an Emergency Binder? Where do you keep it? How do you keep it safe? And who should you tell about it.

All of these questions are answered and laid out in 8 specific sections of a binder. By the end of the show you will have an amazing blue print laid out and be able to DIY your very own Emergency Binder for your family.

It’s a wonderful way to have peace of mind and know that your family will be okay should you find yourself in an emergency and not able to be there for them physically.

This episode of the Wannabe Minimalist Show will help you discover:

• What an Emergency Binder is
• Why an Emergency Binder is necessary for families
• The 8 specific sections you need to have in your Emergency Binder
• How to safeguard your sensitive information
• Who to tell about your Emergency Binder
