Your business legacy isn’t years away.

It’s being built right now.

In this conversation,

reveals the simple framework that keeps your work organized, protected, and aligned with what matters most.

In this conversation, Vicki Peel explains her Legacy Living approach for small business owners, built around her COPE framework: Clear Clutter, Organize, Preserve, Empower.

She emphasizes a business legacy begins the day you start your business, and daily decisions, digital organization, and aligning work with values are key to building something lasting.

5 Steps to Start Living Your Business Legacy

  1. Legacy starts now — Every choice you make in your business contributes to your legacy, not just what you leave behind.

  5. Alignment builds resilience — When daily operations reflect your personal and professional values, your business becomes more focused, sustainable, and transferable.
