Got emails? A blog? Social media? A website? Then you’ve got a digital trail—but what happens to it when you’re gone?

In this eye-opening episode, Len Rosen—futurist, tech writer, and founder of the site 21stCenTech —asks the questions we avoid: What happens to your Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Apple, and Google accounts? Who has access? Who decides? What just… disappears? From rented movies and dusty blogs to forgotten passwords and digital ghosts, Len breaks it down with sharp insight and dry wit.

Click. Post. Gone. What stays, what vanishes—and who gets to decide?

🌟 Bonus: Download the free Digital Legacy Starter Sheet (link in show notes). Because someday, someone you love will be glad you did.
