Encore: Legacy 2.0 Jul 29, 2022

Show notes

Everyone wants to pass down a legacy to their children and grandchildren when they pass. But most people get this idea wrong. They think their legacy only means monetary and material items they leave behind.

After speaking at a couple funerals this past weekend, I had a startling realization:

Your legacy is important. But it pales in comparison to your impact.

What's the difference?

Your legacy is how you want to be remembered. Your impact is why people will never forget you.

In this episode, you'll discover how to leave an impact, so nobody forgets you when you pass.

Listen now and start leaving an unforgettable impact everywhere you go.

Show highlights include:
