Episode Summary

Legacy isn't what happens after you die. It's what happens while you're having breakfast. This episode flips everything you think you know about impact, influence, and what actually matters when the dust settles. Spoiler alert: it's not your LinkedIn headline.

What You'll Hear:

  • The barista test for measuring real impact
  • The reason your obituary is being written right now (and you're the author)
  • The compound interest of small choices
  • What happens when you optimize for legacy instead of metrics

Reflection Prompt:

If someone observed your daily actions, what legacy would they say you're already creating?

Try This:

The "Living Legacy Experiment":

  • Write a one-sentence legacy statement (what you want to be remembered for)
  • Identify one daily action that currently doesn't align with this intention
  • Choose one small shift you can make this week to better reflect your legacy values
  • Notice what feels different when you approach ordinary tasks as legacy-building moments

Mentioned in this episode:

  • Inspired by Legacy by Design
