Ever catch yourself drifting? Doing all the “right” things but still feeling like life is happening to you - not because of you?
In this week’s powerful episode of Bounce Back Better, Hilary Saxton shares the touching story of Tony - a man in his eighties whose quiet presence at the beach turned into a profound lesson on loneliness, legacy, and the life we choose to live.
Fresh from attending Tony’s funeral, Hilary takes you on a journey through sliding-door moments, the rocking chair test, and the eulogy you wish someone would read about you one day. This isn’t about being morbid - it’s about being intentional. Because you don’t get to go back, but you do get to change now.
You’ll discover:
✅ Why drifting through life leads to regret (and how to stop it)
✅ How writing your own eulogy might just wake you up
✅ The power of small, conscious actions in shaping your legacy
✅ Why “busy” is the most dangerous story you’re telling yourself
✅ How to create happiness—without waiting for someday
🎧 Listen now for the permission, the nudge, and the plan to take back control of your story - before someone else writes the ending for you.
👉 Your Challenge: Write one paragraph of your ideal eulogy. Then take one small action this week that aligns with the person you want to be remembered as.
