The legacy conversation just got personal.

After a four-year hiatus, I'm back behind the microphone - but I'm not the same person who left it in 2022. Between a wedding, the birth of my son, and the whirlwind of the last few years, my perspective on what we leave behind has shifted from "abstract concept" to "daily reality."

In this Season 2 premiere, I get honest about why I stopped, why I'm back, and why I'm questioning if anyone actually "gives a s***" about legacy anymore. This isn't a business podcast. We aren't talking about C-suite strategies or the latest tech campaigns. We’re talking about the "breadcrumbs" of our lives - the values, the vulnerabilities, and the voices we leave for the people we love.

In this episode, I am covering:

• The 4-Year Gap: Marriage, motherhood, and the 2026 goal to return to joy.
• The "Atlas" Effect: How having a child changed my view on recorded memories.
• A New Mission: Why I'm seeking more women’s voices to challenge the male-dominated "legacy" narrative.
• The Anette Inspiration: How the loss of my foster mom continues to drive the heart of this show.
  

I need your help!

What does it mean to break new ground?
To leave a legacy? To have your life, brain, existence mean something..

I got some Grey's Anatomy inspo for you in today's episode, and a few things to reflect on.

Also giving you a post-valentine's cheesy poem, and a knock-knock joke.. for someone special-ish ;)

Another week, another solo episode!

In this episode, I'm sharing some thoughts around creating traditions that potentially could tie into a generational legacy. If anything, it can help create experiences to be enjoyed in the moment, and create memories for a lifetime.

Decided to do something new - because that's what 2022 is all about for me!

Getting outside of my comfort zone, in many ways this year (which you will hear more details about in this episode), and decided to do an audio diary for this solo episode.

The question is: are we trying to create a legacy for ourselves, other people, or a combination of both? Is building a legacy selfish?

Two links mentioned in this solo episode:

In this next conversation, I speak with Robert Crayton III, Sr. Account Executive at Triplebyte, and Host of the That's When I Knew podcast.

We start the convo with a game of "which one would you pick?" and later dissect the why behind his answers, some in more detail than others. 

Questions include:

• Home remodeling or tech sales?
• Professional or personal legacy?
• 2Pac or Biggie?

Tune in to hear what the rest of the conversation is all about: generational family legacy, faith, and three things he would focus on if he only had 72 more hours to live.
