Welcome to your legacy journal.

This is the landing place for the stories of your life. The gifts of your soul. 

This is a thirty day guided journey to unpack your mattering:

• who you’ve been

• how you mattered

• how you will continue to live through those you leave behind

Understanding your legacy is a gift to those you will someday leave behind to name and honor your legacy before you’ve left this mortal plane.

Our legacies aren't statues or monuments, they are not fixed things. They are shapeable, pliable, adaptable foundations. They are the seeds we have planted through our words and our work, in our relationships and the world around us. They are gifts of service & care for all beings who inherit the Earth.

This journey might be a fit for you if:

• You recognize that life is precious because it ends and you want to make the most of it while you are here. 

• You are in the midst of an existential reckoning and want to make it all make sense. 

• You know you’re supposed to do your end of life care planning but want to do it in a more resourced, life-affirming way.

• You want to approach eldership rooted & embodied.

This is the beginning of the rest of your life.

This journey will help you to get clarity on your needs and priorities to prepare you to begin the practical work of end of life care planning, but the real magic of legacy work is in its power to awaken you to your power, purpose, and pleasure. 

Permission to go slowly. 

It’s taken you a lifetime to get here. The intention is for you to be able to relax into this space and allow this work to work on you. Like a seed when the conditions of opening are met, the essence of your soul’s gifts will unfold.

Approaching one’s mortality with slow, steady, curiosity will naturally create more capacity to face the bigness of any feelings or stuckness that emerge along the way. 

You are here. You are now. You matter. 

“I have come to Melanie many times during really difficult struggles coping with both life and death. She has a wonderful way of walking you through your feelings and putting it into the bigger perspective of our purpose in life. I appreciate her insight and her passion to bring meaning to all phases of life and help us understand the natural pattern that we so often forget in modern life.”

-Sara Johnson, Botanist, Huntsville, Alabama

Be here now, rooted & embodied.
