Episode notes

Maryann Bell is the leader of the advisory practice at Wingspan Legacy Partners, where she works with multi-generational families to design governance structures, ownership frameworks, and policies that preserve both enterprise value and family relationships over time. With a unique ability to navigate the intersection of ownership, leadership, and legacy, she has previously joined the Disruptive Successor Show to discuss the importance of prenuptial agreements as governance tools and how families can tackle difficult conversations around money, succession, and ownership without damaging relationships. Known for her global perspective - working with families across Latin America, India, Asia, and beyond - Maryann brings clarity to some of the most emotionally charged issues in family business, helping families shift from default patterns of equal treatment to structures that are truly fair, merit-based, and built to endure across generations.
