Re: Will you share how you "live your legacy," with me?
Linda,
Thank you for your response. I love what you said about not being as apt to say no to things. I find that to be very true myself- I use little mantras like "lean in," when I want to back away or stay in my comfort zone.
"Connect more deeply." Amen to that!
"Being in the picture." These are all so good… I'm gathering them all.
I do hope to have a transcript or have a recording done of the whole speech that I can share.
Thank you for your thoughtful responses- you've already garnered much wisdom! Blessings to you!
