In this episode, I’m diving into something that’s been on my heart for a while now: legacy. You know, the kind of stuff that makes you stop and think about what really matters in life. Losing my mom earlier this year, and my brother years ago, has completely reframed how I view life, work, and what we leave behind. Again.
Today, I’m talking about how we can create a legacy that feels authentic, meaningful, and (surprise!) doable. Especially for us entrepreneurs—what happens when we shift from chasing revenue goals to creating something that lasts longer than an Instagram story?
Here’s What I Cover in This Episode:
- What Legacy Means to Me (and Maybe You, Too): I break down how the traditional definition of legacy doesn’t quite cut it anymore—and why I think we’re living in a time where legacy can be so much more.
- Why Loss Has Shaped My View of Legacy: Personal stories about losing my mom, my brother, and how those experiences have guided me to focus on leaving an impact—both for my family and the world.
- Legacy Through an Entrepreneurial Lens: What if your business wasn’t just about making money? I share how shifting my perspective has helped me realign my work with my deeper values.
- Legacy-Building Tools of 2025: I geek out on my favorite ways to leave your mark:
- Writing a book (the highs and lows of this massive mountain to climb).
- Podcasting (spoiler alert: it’s more than a marketing tool).
- Social media (yes, if you save and archive your content thoughtfully).
- Digital courses (they’re not just for revenue—they’re timeless capsules of your wisdom).
- It’s Personal, Not Perfect: I share why your legacy doesn’t have to be a bestseller or a viral hit. It just has to be you. And it doesn’t all have to be public—your legacy can include things meant only for your family or even just yourself.
What I Hope You Get From This Episode:
- A fresh perspective on why your life’s work matters.
- Inspiration to create something meaningful without getting caught up in perfectionism.
- Practical ways to start thinking about (and building!) your legacy today, even if you’ve never considered it before.
Don’t Forget:
- If you loved this episode, I invite you to share it with someone who could use a little inspiration today.
- Let’s chat! What does legacy mean to you? DM me your thoughts on Instagram or email me—I’d love to hear your take.
As always, thanks for being here with me on this journey. You being part of my world? That’s part of my legacy. — Nichole
