This week, I shared updates on LinkedIn…

• I reflected on how a daily photo practice has reshaped how I define success—and how stillness leads to clarity.
• I introduced the idea of Conversations Church—a space for faith conversations that center on questions more than answers.
• I reframed asking for help as a way to let others live out their purpose, and shared how I’m aligning my schedule for this new season of fatherhood.
• I wrote about how purpose gives us permission to say no, so we can protect our deepest yes.
• I highlighted a quiet moment of support and generosity as my friend Sally Phu hosted a global event from my office.
• I shared a reflection on how legacy shows up in the small, everyday choices we make between the holidays.

What I'm Learning

I used to think legacy was something you leave behind.

Now I think it’s something you live.

​

And that means saying yes to what aligns, and no to what drains.

It means receiving help as an act of humility, not weakness.

It means paying attention to the moments that feel light—and the ones that feel heavy.

​
​Peace follows clarity. And clarity starts with presence.

Poll: What does living your legacy look like right now?

Purpose Activation Challenge: Protect One "Yes" This Week

Here’s the challenge:

1. Choose one thing that truly matters to you—
…and protect it with a clear, purposeful “no.”

Examples:

• Block time for your kids—and turn down one extra meeting
• Say no to a distraction so you can focus on what fuels you
• Cancel something that no longer aligns
• Step away from the noise so you can hear your own clarity

2. Then do it.

✅ Say the no

✅ Honor the yes

✅ Notice what shifts

3. Reflect: What did you gain by protecting what matters?

💬 Let me know.

Tag me on LinkedIn or reply to this email.

I’d love to hear what changed when you said yes—on purpose.

It’s a movement.
A space where real conversations happen.

Where people take action.

Stay Connected

Legacy isn’t loud.
It’s found in the still moments—
The way you slow down, pay attention, and show up with intention.

You don’t need a spotlight to make an impact.
Just a clear yes.
A brave no.
And the courage to live what matters—today.

Follow me on my socials and tag me when you take action.

​​​

And if this hit home, forward it to someone who’s building something that lasts.

Let’s live the quiet legacy—together.

Life is short. Live on purpose.
