What does it mean to build a legacy?

Legacy isn’t just about money or fame; it’s about the quiet, powerful ways we shape how we’re remembered. Discover how meaningful, everyday moments like making a favorite recipe, creating a garden, writing a heartfelt letter or having a heartfelt conversation can become the most lasting impact you leave behind. On today’s episode, licensed marriage and family therapist Kim Virrueta, introduces the idea of “legacy themes”: financial, relational, carrying-it-forward, and spiritual and gently reframes how we think about the impact we leave behind. The conversation opens a deeper, more personal way of seeing legacy, inviting you to consider not just what you pass on, but how love, meaning, and values continue to live through everyday life.00:00 Understanding Legacy: A Complex Concept04:08 The Active Role in Shaping Legacy06:30 Creative Expressions of Legacy09:04 The Impact of Mundane Moments11:26 Building a Meaningful Legacy14:14 Exploring Spiritual Legacy For more information about Kim's therapy practice visit: Christian Counseling and Cancer Support.Kim has a free family grief guide.
