Meg Newhouse, Ph.D., co-founder of the Life Planning Network and author of Legacies of the Heart: Living a Life that Matters, will discuss her unique perspective on legacy as a compass for enriching our lives and leaving behind evidence that our lives mattered and "left the world a little better than it was." She will share a few of the many stories in her book that illustrate the various dimensions and kinds of legacy we all receive and leave and consider the potential role of conscious elders.

You'll come away from this episode with:

  • an eye-opening and empowering understanding of the legacy
  • a desire to reflect more on your legacy inheritance and your own past and ongoing legacies
  • some ideas and inspiration for future legacies, created as a potential conscious elder.
