Legacies help us with our goals after we’ve passed because they have the power to inspire action and the give our ideals an chance to live on through others. Given the magical potential of legacies, we wanted to support and foster conversations around legacy building and below you’ll find some of those conversations.

I want to leave behind a legacy of transformation—one that empowers women to fully see themselves, spiritually and physically. Whether it’s through my makeup brushes, my book The Mental Gym, or my voice in spaces of faith and healing, I’m intentional about helping people reconnect to who they are and who God created them to be.

Legacy, to me, is not something I want solely focused on my name. I believe legacy goes beyond yourself. Legacy is in the work people do to benefit the less fortunate, the way they raise their children, and the gifting and service they provide others. Ultimately, I want my legacy, or rather the legacy I influence, to be Christ-like and to follow my faith. If there’s one detail I want to be remembered about me, it’s that I was a son of God first.

I’m building a legacy rooted in God, love, and purpose. Growing up in the foster care system, I didn’t have a stable foundation or consistent guidance—but I made a decision that the pain I experienced wouldn’t go to waste. I want to be remembered as someone who broke the cycle, who used his life to pour into others, especially children and families who feel forgotten or overlooked. Read More>>

I’m building a legacy rooted in resilience, truth, and the unapologetic power of rising from the ashes. Three Strikes Can’t Take Me Out wasn’t just a memoir—it was a resurrection. I survived things that were meant to take me out, including one of the deadliest diagnoses a person can face: pancreatic cancer. That alone should have written my ending. But somehow, against all odds, I lived—and I chose to turn that miracle into a message. Read More>>

The legacy I hope to build is one rooted in purpose, resilience, and impact. I want to be remembered as someone who dared to pursue a vision—someone who didn’t wait for the “perfect time” but created opportunities with what was available. My hope is that people will say I inspired others to believe in their ability to build something meaningful, to live more intentionally, and to prioritize what truly matters—family, community, and freedom.

I’ve had a lot of loss in my life — my dad’s health struggles loomed over my head from the time I was 17 until he eventually passed when I was 28, and (in my humble opinion) have lost too many people too early in life. So I have a skewed perspective about life and legacy.
The truth is that both life can be long. And it can also be short. And we have zero clue either way. Read More>>

I want to be remembered for the profound impact I made on people’s lives—by inspiring them and equipping them with practical tools to navigate challenges, transform their mindset, and create lives filled with joy and productivity. I want to be known for helping others recognize their potential, see the best in themselves, and live boldly in alignment with who they truly are. My legacy will be one of empowering others to embrace their God-given strengths and talents, shedding insecurity, and stepping confidently into the extraordinary lives they were created to live.

A legacy of service and impact.
I hope to be remembered as someone who didn’t just do business, but truly made a difference — for my family, for the people I’ve helped, and for the community I love. Through my work with our businesses (BUYAZRE, Proactive Close, ACRE Coaching), and our charity efforts, I aim to leave behind something that went beyond profit — something that helped others succeed, feel supported, and love where they live.

I want my legacy to be one of storytelling — of using my voice and gifts to amplify those who might not otherwise be heard. I hope to be remembered as someone who spoke truth to power, helped solve problems, and held the powerful accountable. More than that, I want people to say I used my talents to create meaningful change in the world. Read More>>

My greatest hope is that my legacy reflects not only my work, but that I am remembered for the depth of my character and my empathy for others. I’m no stranger to adversity. Throughout my life, I’ve faced both physical and mental health challenges, often compounded by financial hardships—but I’ve never let those obstacles define me. I’ve always chosen resilience, and I continue to push forward with purpose and determination. Read More>>
