MacKenzie gave billions away. Lauren spent billions on a wedding. I’m not here to judge. I’m here to get us all thinking. Let’s go! On one hand, we have MacKenzie Scott, who quietly became one of the most generous philanthropists in history. She took her share of the Amazon fortune and, instead of building castles, she started building futures, funding schools, supporting women’s shelters, lifting up entire communities. On the other hand, we have Lauren Sánchez, who just celebrated an extravagant, headline-stealing wedding aboard a $500 million yacht, wearing couture that could feed a small country for a year. Two women. Same ex-husband. Two wildly different legacies. I think back to a time when I received an unexpected windfall. It wasn’t billions (not even close!), but it was enough to make me pause. I remember sitting at my kitchen table, thinking: “What would feel good in my soul years from now?” Instead of a designer bag or another luxury trip, I quietly covered a friend’s rent when they were on the brink of eviction. I helped a local single mom buy groceries for her kids. I invested in someone’s dream when they felt no one else believed in them. That moment reminded me that wealth be it big or small, is really just energy. We get to choose if we use it to build walls or bridges. Some people want to be remembered for their impact. Others for their Instagram moments. At the end of the day, we all get to decide what we want our legacy to be. So here’s my question to you on this Friday: 💬 If you suddenly had billions (or even just a little extra), what story would you write with it? Drop it in the comments 👇🏻. Let’s inspire each other.
