As Maya Angelou wisely said, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Think about that, what if it’s not about monuments or accolades; it’s about the indelible mark you leave on the hearts and minds of others?

As an Executive Coach, I never imagined that my life story would become a beacon of hope for others, guiding them to uncover their true selves.
I’m very familiar with the sting of loss; like the gut-wrenching grief of losing a loved one too soon. My experiences, while painful, have shaped me in profound ways. They’ve taught me that true legacy isn’t just about what we leave behind; it’s about who we become in the face of adversity.
It forced me to confront the deeper questions: What truly matters? What impact do I want to have on the world? What kind of person do I want to be?

It’s about the person you are becoming, the character you embody, and the positive ripple effect you create through your interactions, even the small ones.
Developing a legacy mindset is a journey of self-discovery and intentional living. Here are some practical tips to help you cultivate it:
