L.E.G.A.C.Y.® Life Review: Creating a Meaningful Life and Lasting Legacy 

 

What would make your life matter? Although deeply personal, the yearning for the answer to this question is a shared human experience. A testament to this is The Purpose-Driven Life by Rick Warren, a New York Times bestseller published in 2002 that has sold over 60 million copies in 50 languages. The challenge with such books, whether faith-based or secular, is that they tend to address questions about life purpose or meaning in a universal way. This often leaves people feeling empty-handed and frustrated. The L.E.G.A.C.Y.® Life Review moves beyond the universal by exploring the unique significance of your life and one-of-a-kind life story.

During this retreat, you will be guided through the L.E.G.A.C.Y.® Life Review, an innovative program designed to meet you at your current stage of life and help you:

  •  live a purposeful, values-centered, and meaning-focused life
  • create a lasting legacy
  • develop an “appreciative mindset

You will walk away with a panoramic view of your life, deeper self-understanding, and a greater sense of what makes your life matter – powerful knowledge to help you make positive life transitions and navigate career and life decisions in a rapidly changing 21st century world.

This is an intergenerational retreat for adults in all stages of life (ages 18 and older). There will be an optional outdoor activity included, depending on weather.
