EP 5: Live a Life So You Can Leave a Legacy

Mother's Day and the recent passing of controversial social media personality and YouTuber has me thinking a lot about legacy. Being childfree means I have to be intentional and thoughtful about what my legacy is and who I will pass it on to--and I don't just mean tangible items. But what was even more interesting was the spectrum of responses I witnessed after the YouTuber's passing. I'm sure if he were here, he would vehemently defend what he would say his legacy is.But that's the thing, once we leave this Earth our legacy is largely made of the feelings, experiences, and perceptions other people have of us. I want all of us to lead and live a life in order to leave a legacy that we design and are proud of. And that’s what we’re discussing today...
