Episode 1: 3 Steps to Get Your Life and Legacy Into Alignment
How do you start building a personal legacy? It may begin when your lived experiences uncover your true values.
Host Shawna Wells, the Legacy Architect, kicks off Legacy, Life, and Lyrics by laying out the foundations of personal legacy.
Through her own lyrical reflection of the great words of Lauryn Hill and personal insight, Shawna shares three essential practices for building a meaningful legacy: connecting with your lineage, fully recognizing your present self, and envisioning your generational impact three generations into the future.
Living a legacy-centered life is not about waiting for distant milestones—it’s created through intentional choices woven into the fabric of our daily lives.
Moments of crisis can often help us strip away the noise and clarify our deepest values and intentions. These values are what guide us in our legacy planning. They help us realize the generational health and wealth we want to leave for the future. The pandemic especially created a space to reflect on generational health and the lasting legacy we’re building.
Tune in for inspiration and practical steps to integrate your legacy into daily life, aligning actions with what matters most.
By connecting deeply with our past, understanding our present, and looking forward to our future impact, Shawna guides us in making legacy-building choices not just for personal fulfillment but also generational health and resilience.
