Ep. 076 | Legacy

What It Is and Why It Matters, with Maggie Gannon

 

Legacy. What is it, and why does it matter?


As a 28-year veteran in the field of Otorhinolaryngology, clinical nurse specialist Maggie Gannon first encountered the transformational impact of legacy in the crucible of caring for desperately ill head and neck cancer patients. Then, cancer hit close to home. That ordeal galvanized her resolve to bring the power of legacy to everyone.


Today, Maggie is the founder and CEO of Haven, the first customer-centric company built from clinical research to help the patient, the family, and the companies that serve them improve quality of life during life’s last chapter. Haven is changing the experience of death into something more meaningful and peaceful when the time comes. Maggie is also a recognized national lecturer and author.


There’s Something to This Legacy Thing

This is the second time in as many episodes that legacy has come up, so I'm taking note. If you haven't already, tune in to episode 075 with Alison Zimmerman for her perspective on legacy. There's something here that we need to pay attention to because those who have looked Mortality square in the eyes say it's important. Let's hear and heed their counsel now, before our own encounter with Mortality is upon us.


Highlights from This Episode

  • How listening well helps others see new possibilities and generate new options for themselves

  • Key differences between those who cope well with their Mortality and those who don’t

  • How years of caring for the chronically and terminally ill has changed how Maggie lives her own life–and what that means for you and me

  • How Maggie’s views on life and death changed when cancer hit close to home–and what that means for you and me

  • The astounding mental, emotional, and physical benefits of connecting with and capturing our legacy

  • How to begin capturing your legacy today

  • The top regrets that Maggie’s patients expressed as death drew near–don’t let them become yours!

  • Tune in to the full episode for more…
