Grove Guides

A collective of trusted specialists for the season your family is in.

No family should walk through a major life transition alone. The Grove Guides are a small, trusted group of independent professionals we've brought together because each one tends to a different part of the work. We don't employ them, and they don't work for us. We simply believe in what they do, and we've built a way for your family to access all of it in one place, without having to find each piece on your own.

Amber Wheeler, Professional Organizer of System Sister
Bringing order to homes and seasons of life that feel unmanageable.

Amber runs System Sister, bringing calm, practical order to homes in transition — whether that's downsizing, preparing a house for sale, organizing a space that's stopped working, or navigating the emotional weight of a loved one's move into senior living. Drawing on time in business, teaching, and running her own household, she meets people wherever they are: sometimes taking a project off their hands entirely, other times serving as a steady, non-judgmental coach alongside them. Her work with Grief Share groups at her church gives her particular sensitivity to the end-of-life and loss-related organizing that brings many families to her door. As she puts it, her business and her outlook on life are the same thing: doing life and finding order. Learn more at systemsister.com.

Anton Weidner, Legacy Video Director of LifeStory
Preserving a family's voice and story before it's lost.

Anton runs LifeStory Videos through Silver Lantern Studios, where he works as a director and producer capturing personal video biographies that preserve a person's voice, values, and memories for their family. Rather than a scripted interview, Anton and his team shape a warm, guided conversation around each person's life, often incorporating questions and memories submitted by loved ones, then professionally edit the result into a video meant to be kept and treasured for generations. His approach is grounded in a deep personal faith that shapes how he tells stories, and he's driven by a bigger mission: to help families hold onto the truth, wisdom, and voice of the people they love before those stories are lost.

Erin Johnson, Co-founder of Oak & Iron | Estate / Probate Attorney of Erin Johnson Legal
Helping families get their affairs in order, with clarity and care.

Erin helps families put practical and emotional weight behind the phrase "get your affairs in order" through wills, trusts, special needs guardianships, probate, and premarital agreements. She approaches each client's situation with genuine care and a steady resolve to get things right, whether she's helping a family plan ahead or helping them close out the estate of someone they've lost. For Erin, estate planning isn't just paperwork; it's coming alongside people during some of life's hardest chapters and helping them turn the page with clarity and confidence.

Dan Johnson, Founder of Oak & Iron | Family Legacy Director of Erin Johnson Legal
Helping families connect their plans to the legacy behind them.

Dan helps families step back from the day-to-day and ask a bigger question: what are we actually building, and why? Drawing on years as a PCC-credentialed coach and his own work alongside Erin Johnson Legal, he helps families connect the practical decisions of estate planning (who gets what, who's in charge, what's written down) to the deeper legacy and values those decisions are meant to protect. Dan sees his role less as an expert handing down answers and more as a guide helping a family find and articulate what they already believe, then take the next right step together. He's the one holding the whole picture, making sure a family's plans actually reflect the life and story they want to leave behind.
