Frequently Asked Questions
What is Serenity Legacy?
Serenity Legacy 宁善传承 is a Singapore-based educational and advisory platform focused on afterlife and legacy planning.
We help individuals and families understand frameworks such as Advance Care Planning (ACP), Lasting Power of Attorney (LPA), and Advance Medical Directive (AMD), so decisions can be made calmly and with clarity.
Do you provide legal or medical advice?
No.
We do not provide legal advice or medical advice. When formal decisions require legal or medical professionals, we help individuals understand when such input is needed and how to approach those conversations more prepared.
How is Serenity Legacy different from a law firm or clinic?
Law firms and healthcare providers focus on executing specific services.
Serenity Legacy focuses on understanding and preparation — helping individuals and families make sense of options, roles, and implications before formal decisions are made.
Do I need to complete ACP, LPA, and AMD together?
No.
These frameworks serve different purposes and do not need to be completed at the same time. Some people begin with clarifying values through ACP, while others prioritise appointing decision-makers through LPA.
What matters is understanding what each does and when each is relevant.
I am still healthy. Is it too early to plan?
No.
Many people choose to plan while they are healthy and clear-minded, as it allows decisions to be made calmly rather than during moments of stress or crisis.
There is no “right age” to begin.
Who usually seeks guidance from Serenity Legacy?
We support a wide range of individuals and families, including:
- Adults thinking ahead about future care and decision-making
- Adult children supporting ageing parents
- Couples and individuals who prefer early, calm preparation
- Families who want clarity before a crisis occurs
There is no single profile that fits everyone.
Will you tell me what decisions to make?
No.
Our role is not to decide on behalf of anyone. We provide information, context, and guidance so individuals can make decisions that align with their own values and circumstances.
Can you help with family conversations?
Yes.
Many challenges arise from unspoken assumptions rather than missing documents. We provide guidance on how to approach sensitive discussions calmly and constructively with family members.
Do you assist with memorial or afterlife arrangements?
We can provide educational guidance on how memorial and afterlife considerations fit into broader legacy planning.
Such discussions are approached respectfully and only when individuals or families feel ready.
What happens if I decide not to proceed with anything yet?
That is completely fine.
Understanding your options does not obligate you to take action. Many people choose to reflect and revisit decisions later.
How do I know if I should reach out?
If you are:
- Unsure where to begin
- Feeling uncertain about ACP, LPA, or AMD
- Wanting clarity without pressure
You may find it helpful to speak with us.
Is there any obligation if I contact you?
No.
Conversations are exploratory and educational. There is no obligation to proceed with any decision or service.
How do I get in touch?

We respond with the same calm, respectful approach reflected throughout this site.
