Don’t Sweat The Small Stuff with Kristine Carlson

Legacy Series: An Hour to Live and Love

We often hear the importance of leaving behind a positive legacy. And as we live our forties, fifties, sixties, and beyond… this can feel like a big responsibility! Kristine shares a moving passage from An Hour to Live, an Hour to Love by Richard Carlson to show you the way forward to living your most impactful life.

Legacy Series: Live Your Legacy

How do you wish to be remembered when you’re gone? As we navigate midlife (and beyond), we are called upon to meditate on the kind of legacy we want to leave behind. We will likely desire to build a legacy of love, kindness, and compassion – definitely not one of sweating the small stuff! By keeping our mortality close to our hearts, we begin to live our life with greater intention – we begin to live to the point. 

“If you had an hour to live and could make only one phone call—who would you call, what would you say, and why are you waiting? -Stephen Levine - An Hour to Live, an Hour to Love by Richard Carlson and Kristine Carlson
