You’re in the right place
If any of this sounds familiar…
Every family's journey looks different
Where Are You Right Now?Â
Planning ahead - while it's still your choice
You're the person who handles things. The insurance is sorted, the will is done. Where are the documents that speak when you can't?
Caring for an aging parent
You're managing the appointments, medications, and sibling group chat that agrees on nothing. But nobody actually knows what Dad wants—in writing.
Facing dementia together
A diagnosis doesn't end the planning window but it starts the clock. We document your person's wishes while the words are still theirs, and give you tools for the road ahead.
How it works
The GuideWyze Advance Care Planning Method™
Anyone can print the documents. The ER can't use drafts.
Prepare
We gather what exists and uncover what is missing. The documents, the decisions, the questions nobody has asked yet. Right down to who feeds the pet.
Decide
One guided conversation at a time, you make the decisions only you can make while they are still yours  to make. No legal jargon, no overwhelm.
Document
Every wish in writing, every paper where your family, caregivers and your doctors can find it. So no one ever has to guess.

Built From the Inside Out
MEET THE FOUNDER
GuideWyze grew from the conversations that never happened. The wishes nobody wrote down, the questions nobody asked until a hospital hallway forced them. I know those hallways. I've stood in them, holding decisions that should have been made years earlier, by someone who could no longer make them.Â
That's why this work is advance care planning first. Not paperwork for someday. It's a guided way to get every decision, every document, every wish in writing while the choice is still yours. Human, unhurried, and nothing like a law or medical office.
Whether you're planning ahead while life is calm, or a diagnosis just moved "someday" to now, GuideWyze exists so your family never has to guess. Â
Jennifer MichaelsÂ
Founder Guidewyze
I was drowning in the day-to-day and couldn't see what I was missing. I was afraid to even open the materials alone. Jennifer walked me through everything until I actually understood what I was looking at. For the first time in a long time, I felt like I could exhale.
Renee K.
Caring for her mother with dementia
After my father's stroke, my sister and I stopped speaking. Nobody knew what he wanted because nothing was written down. I found GuideWyze after the damage was done. I wish I'd found it before.
Margaret T.
Navigating family decisions after a parent's stroke
I kept putting this off because nothing felt urgent yet. I'm in my thirties and healthy. This wasn't supposed to matter yet. I assumed I'd need an attorney just to do this. Jennifer explained everything in a way that actually made sense. I had no idea how much weight these decisions carry until someone took the time to explain it. I couldn't have done this alone.

Arizona Families
Before ALTCS, Before Assisted Living. The Plan.Â
If you're starting to explore long-term care or Arizona's ALTCS program, here's what most families learn the hard way: every one of those doors asks for decisions and documents you haven't made yet. Advance care planning is what comes first. I'll help you understand the landscape and what questions to ask — and when you need application or legal help, I'll point you to the licensed professionals who do that work.
