I bought a separate laptop and set it up with an encrypted password that both my wife and I know. It contains instructions on everything from my self hosted stuff to anything else related to my personal life that she would need. It's 100% offline to keep it safe from a network compromise. This whole thing was especially important since I wanted to make sure my family could access all photos, calendar, contacts, etc for the last decade that are stored on my server.
It takes time to transfer everything to it (all in Obsidian) since it's a brain dump... But it actually benefits me too. I've had a few times where I was like "how the hell did I set that up?" and had some instructions on there the helped lol.
Definitely recommend this to others to consider.
