Why Having a Family Mission Saves Your Sanity

Welcome back to Our Perspective Podcast! This week, Pat and MG kick off a brand-new series on the four guiding rhythms that quietly shaped the heartbeat of their home. These weren’t fancy strategies—just everyday practices that kept their family grounded, connected, and supported by a village that mattered. In today’s episode, they unpack the first rhythm—born from a single, deeply personal question: “What do you hope people say about you at your funeral?” That question sparked a defining statement for their family, one Pat hopes will echo for generations. Tune in as they share the surprising story behind it and how it changed everything.
