In this thought-provoking talk about who and what really builds legacy, Kirsty James questions our focus on individual success over collective achievement and encourages us to harness the power of cooperation and community in legacy-building.
Referencing iconic personalities and historical milestones, Kirsty creatively blends these with current events and personal anecdotes to deliver a compelling appeal for social change and a shift in our behaviour.
We are invited to rethink our relationship with legacy and take small, collective steps to build living legacies, thereby connecting with a more meaningful life purpose.
