Have you ever stopped to think about how the content you post or your online interactions, are the sum of your digital legacy? What will your friends, family members, and followers remember about the legacy you leave behind? Is it all the likes or followers you got, or will it be the impact you had on them?
Kheyra and I, drawing from our backgrounds as creatives and content creators, delve into the importance of mindful storytelling and the impact our digital footprints have on the legacy we leave behind. In a world where our online presence is an extension of our real lives, we explore how a soft life philosophy - emphasizing gentleness, empathy, and intentional living - can guide us in creating a digital legacy that not only reflects who we are, but also reflects ways in how we connect with loved ones after we die.

Kheyra opens up about the deep impact of the loss of her grandmother as well as surviving her brother's suicide and how these experiences steered her towards a softer, more intentional way of living. Kheyra invites listeners into her world, making you feel like you're right there with her, experiencing the profound moments that reshaped her life.
