Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Good. So, you know, I know your backstory. You've come from a lot, done a lot, doing a lot, right? And I think, you know, maybe just for people listening in, it sounds like you're very established and you're doing all these amazing things, but maybe it wasn't always that way, right? Which they'll find out in the full episode.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
So can you give people a minute summary of your journey and story to get here?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
and now build their businesses great and let's explore that a little because i know there's a key part of the episode where you explain you know 18 months ago or a couple of years ago life didn't always look this way can you can you uh just summarize that moment
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
So what does this burn a shit moment mean, right? I mean, I love the concept. I know what it is, but if people are listening and they don't, let's break it down.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Well, and I think, you know, it's such a great concept because for entrepreneurship, it's a defining moment and pretty much every entrepreneur has gone through it.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
And, you know, I think it's actually so important for building a legacy, too, because I always teach you can't have anything extreme in life, like, you know, high achiever, like winning a gold medal or, you know, starting a charitable organization that changes the world or a business that changes the world. if you haven't risked it all many times.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
And there's many stories of ultra successful Elon Musk invested all his money from exits in PayPal or whatever into the next venture and then the next venture. And now he's literally doing it all to try and get to Mars. He could lose everything in the process and Richard Branson the same. So I think every entrepreneur that's trying to build a legacy, they have these burn the shit moments.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
And that was maybe one of your first ones. And I'm sure you'll have many more as you get bigger and bigger. So I love that. So, you know, when we talk about, you know, actually the legacy side, right, like 18 months ago, it was more the survival side, right? It was like, you know, a pivoting and an adjustment. And you've done so well in those less than two years growing to millions.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
But now you've kind of got that foundation, you can
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
breathe a little right and it's that thing yeah we breathe a little maybe maybe uh but you know you've got the traction right you've got the audience you've got the the personality you've got the great product which is it's the hardest part for us but and so i do think you can when you've got that at least personally it's like now i can start to shift on the bigger things right the things that can build a legacy so what are some of those things for you
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Yeah, exactly.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Now you can go for a ride and see scenery and the beach, right? That's the difference.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Yeah, yeah.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Mm-hmm.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
It's the Bible. It is, right? Yeah.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Well, I think that's when you're moving into that legacy thing because the business side is a vehicle, right? And then that vehicle is to help people in whatever way, right? So writing a book is a vehicle to help people spread their message and all that sort of stuff. But then the profits from the business eventually can lead into the clinics, right?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
And I know, again, from your episode, you've shared with us that the suicide stuff is close to your heart. Can you explain why?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
i'm alive and not only am i alive but i'm living my best life ever if someone's listening and they think they're never going to get to a stage where they can impact people at a grand level and leave a legacy and they can't make that much of an impact and maybe they don't believe in themselves just yet what would you say to them Hello and welcome back to another episode of Legacy Makers Podcast.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
alcoholic and then created, you know, centers and clinics and built $100 million company and help thousands of people. So yeah, and I think that's what business and entrepreneurship is at its core. I mean, most people see it as someone in a Lamborghini or a jet or whatever. But it's like, most of the time it's helping, you know, solve a problem that you struggled with in some point in your life.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Right. And then obviously, if you do a good job of it, you get paid and rewarded for that. Right. And you make money, which is great. But and most entrepreneurs reinvest that money into helping and growing and expanding. So what's next for you on the business side with the current business?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
I love it. So a few questions around legacy now. And obviously that's the theme of the show and the podcast. So first question, what does the legacy mean to you?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
like it and a lot of people watching this or listening or looking at the show and the episodes might be starting out and they might go oh building a legacy i'm just trying to pay the bills like you were 18 months ago right but you're living proof that life can change quickly you can go from trying to survive and and pay the bills to now like thinking about legacy and thinking about helping thousands of people with suicidal thoughts right so if someone's listening and they think
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
they're never gonna get to a stage where they can impact people at a grand level and leave a legacy and they can't make that much of an impact and maybe they don't believe in themselves just yet, what would you say to them?
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
Right. Yeah. It's just like... pushing a sledge in the gym or a heavy box down the corridor. Once you get that initial push go and it's 10 times easier, even though you're pushing the same weight. And I think that's so important in working on your goals or even if you're not in business, but just working on your goals is the hardest part is the start. It's the hardest when you start a diet.
The Living Your Legacy Podcast
Keira Brinton on Turning Pain Into Purpose and Stories Into Legacy
It's the hardest when you start joining a gym, right? It's the hardest when you start the business. So that start part is so, so important. So next question around legacy. What for you is like, you know, when we talk about legacy and you explain your definition, right? In a hundred years, how do you want to like people to remember you and the impact you made?
