We wake up, get work, go back home and rinse and repeat – or at least it feels that way sometimes. In truth, there are a million moments in between where we interact with others and we can’t help but wonder what folks will think about us once we aren’t showing up, perhaps once we are gone. Some very thoughtful members of the community share their thoughts on this with us below.
Ashley Newman
I hope to be remembered for my positive impact on the world of ADHD: with Grade 3-8 core academic coaching and executive functioning skills. I wish to be remembered for my big heart for learners with ADHD, who I believe are the most brilliant learners within their classrooms. Read more>>
Antoinette Leona Harper
I hope people talk about my kindness and the way I lived my life with intention. More than anything, I want my character to speak for itself—how I treated people, whether they were patients, family, friends, or even someone I had just met.

Kristen Poulter
I hope people tell the story of someone who carved her own path against all odds—someone who refused to be boxed in by circumstance or expectation. A creator who found ways to turn challenges into art, to speak when it seemed no one would listen, and to build something meaningful from the chaos of life. Read more>>
Andre Soares
I truly hope that my legacy is seen as a case of choosing the hard path and prioritizing collective interests. My books are designed to challenge and to evoke emotions that are not always easy to digest. But once you read between the lines, you can begin forming new opinions that may change the way you view relationships, social justice, and politics. Read more>>
