## Resource

In this episode of Legacy Builders Podcast, Cory Gagnon is joined by Cindy Radu and Leah Tolton to explore what it truly takes to build ownership structures that last. Together, they move beyond the technical aspects of trusts and shareholder agreements, highlighting how structure without shared understanding often falls short. They dive into the difference between preparing owners versus managers, why clarity around what’s owned (and how) matters, and how evolving governance builds resilience across generations.
