"Legacy is not leaving something behind for other people. It’s leaving something behind in other people." -Peter Strople
Because of an unexpected gift from his late father, Blake Brewer is now on a mission to help one million parents write at least one well-written, meaningful legacy letter to their children. Let me explain.

Blake Brewer is the founder of Legacy Letter and is on a mission to help one million parents write at least one well-written, meaningful, lasting legacy letter to their children.
Hours after the tragic loss of his father, Blake discovered what would become a guiding light during his grief journey. A life-changing letter from his late father filled with wisdom, love and hope.
Today, Blake shares his story of loss and resilience, focusing on the transformative power of legacy and his role in helping others leave lasting impressions through words with their loved ones.
My friends, if you’re eager to craft a lasting legacy and achieve deeper connections with those you love, this conversation is for you.

“The voicemail you have reached is currently full.”
If you try leaving a message on my cell phone, you’ll often get that recording.
The reason it’s full is that I don’t always delete the messages of friends and family. I love the tone of Mom as she practically sings out my name to begin her messages. I savor the softened, muted, sweet voice of my father checking in on me. I’ve kept several from my wife just letting me know she was thinking of me, and I’ve kept one from each of my kids so I can hear their voices when I’m traveling.
But sometimes it’s in permanently losing a voice, that we are reminded through the voices of others how special our loved one was.  Let me explain.

Kim Goldman is a victims’ rights advocate, championing justice and remembrance for victims.
After her brother Ron Goldman was murdered alongside friend Nicole Brown on June 12, 1994, Kim suddenly found herself thrust into the media spotlight while vulnerably trying to grieve.
Today, less than a week after the death of one the key players within this story, I revisit my conversation with Kim.
Join us as we reflect on the part of her life that was changed permanently and her feelings on speaking with prosecutors, investigators, and witnesses who never got to speak and jurors who voted not guilty for her podcast series Confronting: O.J. Simpson. Plus, she’ll share how she continues to honor her brother by supporting victims and families that face similar tragedies.
My friends, this episode reminds us of the non-linear journey of grief and yet, the transformative power of turning personal losses into impactful support for others.

These meetings can be fun as we think of stories around big holidays, special birthdays, or celebratory anniversaries.
And yet, taking time to remember the anniversaries we’d rather erase from our collective consciousness is equally crucial, especially this month.  Let me explain.
