To generate is to initiate, to inspire, and to originate something
that is meaningful, hopeful, and sustainable for ourselves and others.
In generativity, we become mentors and stewards.
We give back to our families and communities,
sharing our wisdom, experience, and passion,
and leaving a legacy.

Book Review
Legacies of the Heart: Living a Life That Matter
Meg Newhouse; EBook Bakery Books, 2016.
Life coach Meg Newhouse challenges us to face a key question of the second half of life: How do we live so that we shape our legacies consciously, so that the best of who we are and what we value lives on, at least in our family, for at least three generations?
Newhouse begins by highlighting that we inherit legacy from our parents and blood family as well as from the society within which they and we grow up. Through life review, we can identify the positive and negative aspects of that legacy. She underlines the importance of recognizing the negative legacies so that we can make new choices rather than fall into generational or societal patterns. The table of contents makes it very clear that to leave a valuable legacy we must live a life that matters and that thinking backwards from our future legacy can help us clarify our life purpose at each stage of our journey.
The hourglass image helps us to conceptualize the passage from inheritance to contribution. We inherit a multitude of intentional and unintentional legacies (physical, mental, social). Newhouse suggests we filter them by choosing from the heart and then consciously pass on positive legacies from narrow and specific to broad and far-reaching.
