🎙️ Ageing Well Week: Planning Ahead for Peace of Mind

Danielle Phillips of Sage Executor Solutions recently joined Sputnik on ABC Adelaide – SA & Broken Hill Afternoons to discuss an important topic that affects us all: preparing for the practical realities of life after death.

During the conversation, Danielle highlighted why having a Will is just the beginning. Choosing the right executor and preparing them for the responsibilities ahead can make a meaningful difference to the people we leave behind.

From understanding the executor’s role to considering the practical demands of estate administration, a little preparation today can help ease the burden on loved ones tomorrow.

Because planning ahead isn't just about your wishes — it's also about caring for the people who will carry them out. 💚

Thank you to Sputnik and ABC Radio for making space for this important conversation during Ageing Well Week!

🎙️ Tune in this Monday 5th October!

I’m excited to be speaking with Sputnik on 891 ABC Adelaide Afternoons during Ageing Well Week.

We’ll be talking about something many people don’t think about until they’re suddenly faced with it:

Have you ever been an Executor, and were you prepared?

Being an Executor can involve far more than simply carrying out someone’s wishes. There can be paperwork, organisations to contact, decisions to make and plenty of unexpected tasks along the way.

Join us for a conversation about what it really means to be an Executor and why being prepared can make such a difference.

📻 Monday at 1.30pm ACST

Preparing for the best: Living well, every step of the way.

I’m honoured to be speaking at PREPARE 2026, hosted by The Hospital Research Foundation Group this October.

This FREE community event will explore how thoughtful planning can help create comfort, dignity, connection and peace of mind for individuals and their families.

My presentation, “Pre-Planning for Executors & The Truth About Estate Administration,” will explore what families often don’t realise about the executor role, what can be prepared in advance, and how planning ahead can help ease the practical burden on those left behind.

Having personally acted as executor for both of my parents’ estates, I know first-hand that there is so much more to estate administration than many people realise.
Join us for practical advice, compassionate insights and meaningful conversations about planning ahead and supporting the people we love.

🕙 10:00 am – 12:30 pm

Estate administration can be confusing—especially when you're navigating it for the first time.

If you've been appointed as an executor or are helping manage a loved one's estate, you've probably found yourself asking questions like:

• What exactly does an executor have to do?
• Do I need a lawyer for everything?
• What happens if there's no will?
• Can I get help with the paperwork and administration?
• Does it matter where I live in Australia?

You're not alone.

These are some of the most common questions we receive, which is why we're sharing a new FAQ series to help make the estate administration process easier to understand.

At Sage Executor Solutions, we specialise in the practical side of estate administration. While we don't provide legal or financial advice, we help executors, administrators, and families manage the many administrative tasks involved after someone passes away—from notifying banks and government departments to coordinating with superannuation funds, insurers, utilities, and share registries.

Our role is to simplify a process that often feels overwhelming by breaking it down into clear, manageable steps, helping to reduce the time, stress, and administrative burden that executors commonly face.

Whether you've just been appointed as an executor, you're waiting for legal authority to be granted, or you're supporting a family member through the process, we're here to provide practical guidance tailored to your situation.

📖 Keep an eye on this FAQ series as we answer common questions and share practical insights to help you navigate the executor journey with greater confidence.

Meet Danielle Phillips, Founder of Sage Executor Solutions.

When someone you love passes away, the emotional loss is often followed by a long list of practical responsibilities.

From contacting banks and government departments to managing superannuation, property, and shares, the role of an Executor can quickly become overwhelming.

That's where Sage Executor Solutions comes in.

Danielle provides compassionate, practical guidance to help Executors and families navigate the estate administration process with clarity and confidence—so you don't have to do it alone.

📊 Could you be an executor without even knowing it?

Around 59% of Australian adults have a valid will, and in 2024, there were 187,268 registered deaths across Australia.

Because most wills appoint one or two executors, available data suggests there are approximately 165,000 executor appointments each year.

For many people, that appointment comes as a surprise. They've never administered a deceased estate before, yet suddenly they're responsible for important legal and financial tasks during an already emotional time.

If you were asked to be an executor tomorrow, would you know what to do?

At Sage Executor Solutions, we provide practical guidance to help executors understand their responsibilities and navigate the estate administration process with confidence.

💬 Were you aware of what an executor actually does before today? Share your thoughts or questions in the comments.

Estimated executor appointments are derived from Australian will prevalence and registered death data. There is currently no published government or academic dataset tracking executor appointments directly.

When families need support the most, compassionate guidance can make all the difference. 💙

We're incredibly grateful to Corey for sharing his experience.

"I cannot recommend Danielle highly enough. Losing a parent is hard enough, but Danielle took a stressful situation regarding my father's estate and made it manageable."

Corey highlighted three things that mattered most:

✔️ Expert support that made a complex process easier to navigate.
✔️ Results that mattered, helping save money through careful and diligent work.
✔️ Compassionate guidance from someone who genuinely cared about achieving the best outcome for the family.

Thank you, Corey, for your kind words and for trusting Danielle to support your family during such a difficult time.

If you're navigating the responsibilities of administering a loved one's estate, you don't have to face it alone.
