When families are in the aftermath of an unexpected crisis and estate plans aren’t in place, it can be chaotic - and even create generational consequences. Ifeoma “Iffy” Ibekwe seeks to keep people confident and prepared as the principal attorney at Ibekwe Law, fueled by her passion for helping everyone make plans for their passing – regardless of their age or wealth. Encouraging women is her calling, and she believes every woman deserves a plan to legally protect herself and her loved ones.

Marie Mae Founder and CEO Jillian Ryan revisits her conversation with Iffy as she discusses finding purpose in what she does as a lawyer. They also discuss how Iffy gave back during the Black Lives Matter movement and how she goes the extra mile to give back to under-served communities.
