Planning For The Unexpected: Lessons from Barbie & Mr. Rogers

If everyone depends on you, would they know what to do without you?
About this Event

You’re the one who knows how everything works.

You know the clients. The accounts. The passwords. The important documents. The people to call. The things that need to happen—and when they need to happen.

But what happens when the unexpected happens and, for whatever reason, you can’t be the one handling it all?

Most of us don’t like thinking about that possibility. But preparing for the unexpected doesn’t have to be uncomfortable, complicated, or overwhelming.

Join Sarah Kendrick of RHEA Services for an engaging and practical conversation about making sure the people who depend on you have what they need when you’re not available.

And yes—Barbie and Mr. Rogers have something to teach us about it.

Through some unexpected lessons from these familiar cultural icons, Sarah will help us approach a serious topic in a way that feels accessible, practical, and manageable.

As Mr. Rogers reminded us, when we're willing to talk about the difficult parts of being human, they can become much more manageable.


What You'll Explore

Together, we'll look at three important areas of planning for the unexpected:

Care & Client Continuity
If you suddenly couldn't be there, what would happen to the clients, customers, family members, or others who rely on you? Learn how preparation can help create continuity instead of confusion.

Financial Stability
Would someone know where to find the financial information they need? We'll explore why organizing key information in advance can help provide greater stability when circumstances suddenly change.

Legal & Digital Access
From important documents to digital accounts, passwords, and other essential information, we'll discuss what others may need access to—and why waiting until an emergency can make an already difficult situation even harder.


You'll Leave With

This isn't about planning for every possible scenario. It's about taking practical steps now so the people around you aren't left trying to figure everything out later.

You'll leave with ideas for:

  • Organizing essential information
  • Creating greater continuity for your business, clients, or family
  • Identifying important financial, legal, and digital information
  • Reducing uncertainty when unexpected circumstances arise
  • Taking practical next steps toward a plan that works for you

Who Should Attend?

This conversation is especially valuable for business owners, entrepreneurs, organizational leaders, caregivers, and anyone who serves as the primary keeper of important information for their business or family.

If you've ever thought, “I'm the only person who knows how all of this works,” this conversation is for you.

The unexpected may be out of your control. Being prepared for it doesn't have to be.


*Bring your lunch - we’ll provide light refreshments.

*Designed for business, nonprofit, community and organizational leaders—but everyone is welcome.


Presenter Info:

Sarah Kendrick

RHEA Services

Sarah Kendrick's passion for this work began while helping her family navigate the aftermath of her grandmother's passing. During that experience, she recognized how difficult it can be to locate essential information while simultaneously dealing with an already challenging life event.

That experience eventually led Sarah to establish RHEA Services and help other families honor their loved ones' legacies. After guiding dozens of families, she identified another important need: helping people gather and organize critical information before it's needed.

Since 2020, RHEA Services has developed three comprehensive books and streamlined processes designed to help families, small business owners, and caregivers prepare proactively.

Sarah's mission is to help people replace the frantic search for information with something far more valuable: preparation, clarity, and peace of mind.
