Legacy Matters to IndividualsAs we move from one part of life into another, whether by choice or circumstance, we often find ourselves asking: Have I lived my life’s purpose?Is there more for me to become?What value have I created in my life that will be meaningful to another?Do my loved ones know what has mattered most to me and how I want to be remembered?Being able to talk about these questions with others can have a dramatic impact on how well we navigate the inevitable changes that come with any life transition, particularly as we age.

As a distinguished leader in the nonprofit sector, Mary has pioneered programs to engage people – just as they are – in courageous and hopeful change. While serving as CEO of a charitable foundation, she developed a groundbreaking, grassroots initiative to help people build stronger, healthier communities in the rural towns and villages of New Mexico. It continues changing lives today. Later, as a consultant helping nonprofits build organizational and resource capacity, Mary recognized that “legacy” holds a much deeper meaning for most people than the property we leave behind at the end of life. Joining Mary in leading the full-day retreats are Alanna Mack and Kelly Emme, who have traveled the legacy journey with Mary since the beginning.
