"In 2009, Chanel Reynolds got the call we all fear: her husband, José, had been struck by a van while cycling. In the wake of his sudden death, Reynolds realized that she was completely unprepared. Were their drafted-but-still-unsigned wills valid? How would she afford the house? What was the password to his phone? Simply put, she quickly learned she did not have her shit together, and most of us don’t, either. Blending personal narrative with hard-working information, What Matters Most expands, contextualizes, and illuminates the challenges we face in being prepared." (Promo Copy)
