Most people think legacy is something you build at the end — a monument, an inheritance, a name on a building "someday." That's the first lie. The second one is even more common: legacy is what you leave behind.
In this solo episode, I break down the two lies about legacy almost everyone believes — and why both of them are keeping you from building one right now.
Inside this episode:
• The moving-truck moment that made me question everything I'd chased
• The three questions I asked myself in the field — and the sad answer to all three
• Why your legacy is a Kairos problem, not a Kronos problem
• What Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Deuteronomy actually say about inheritance (hint: it's not the greeting-card version)
• Marcus Aurelius vs. the Spartans — and the tension that reframes how you should live today
• The one question to ask yourself before you go to bed tonight
If this hit you, share it with one person who needs to hear it today.
