In today's guided meditation and daily insight, you'll embrace the power of your breath to take hold of the challenge of overcoming the fear of fear itself, for it is not what you fear that holds power, but the fear itself that diminishes your strength and resolve.  In this meditation series, you will be guided to create a legacy that goes beyond personal success and leaves a lasting impact on the world. Each session will guide you through reflections and practices designed to help you discover your unique gifts and how you can use them to make a difference in the world. Through mindfulness, visualization, and introspection, you will learn how to align your actions with your values and create a life that reflects your deepest purpose. You will explore the concept of legacy and how you can start building yours today, regardless of your current circumstances. Whether you are a seasoned professional, a student, a parent, or anyone seeking to make a positive impact, this series will inspire you to live with intention and create a legacy that will endure long after you are gone. Join Mary on this transformative journey as you learn to live your lives with purpose and create a lasting impact on the world around you.
