Glen's path didn't become clear to him until his mid 40s, when as a management consulting partner at PriceWaterhouseCoopers, he realized he was increasingly dissatisfied with how he felt at work every day. He enjoyed the problem solving, the intellectual challenge of working with businesses and their issues, but he felt something was missing. He had turned away from his purpose. From that point, Glen' s journey has been filled with a number of pivots and leaps of faith, always keeping in mind his purpose. Glen has always felt that the way to solve problems and create opportunities for people was through understanding the way the world works, and the mechanics of policy, economics, business, and nonprofits.Glen is fond of epiphanies, and The Wealth and Giving Forum created an environment in which people could have epiphanies about what their wealth meant to them and how to use it with meaning. Glen made an astute observation about impact investing: "This is not about philanthropy; this is about money. This is about money and how it circulates in our society.” And venture capitalist Ross Baird reminded him, "You can't think and behave this way with one pocket and another way with the other pocket. It's all one." Glen also hadn't given much thought about the word legacy until he heard the stories of Alfred Noble's rare “life history do-over” and billionaire Ken Behring's journey to creating the Wheelchair Foundation. He realized he had never thought about what people would say about him when he moves on, which is a very helpful thing to help you pinpoint your legacy. This epiphany was highlighted by Ken's words at a WGF meeting "Don't do what I did. Don't just accumulate and wait until you're 74 to find purpose and happiness in life." From this, Glen hopes people will look for their purpose and legacy early, because you can miss it.Glen has high hopes for younger generations' ability to address injustice and trauma. Injustice anywhere, is injustice everywhere; trauma in one place can lead to trauma in another. "It's not just about the policy and government, it's what we do at our workplaces." Millennials are pushing corporations to adopt beliefs, policies, attitudes and cultural mores that will not result in trauma that manifests itself when people interact with one another. Takeaways: Curate conversations that help you decide your purpose. Align work and money with your values and create a legacy through investing in yourself, your work, your community, impact investing and philanthropy.Sometimes you have to give up who you are to become who you want to be. And it's hard, like a reptile that has to shed its skin. There is no straight path to a legacy at work. Glen believes that who you owe an answer to at the end of your life is yourself! Don't get to the end and imagine you missed it. Take risks to make what you believe in happen. Quotes: “Wine, is a subject that no one can master, just like it's hard to master yourself.”“At the end of the day I think it's your heart and your belly that rules.” “Reflect on yourself. You don't have to be a billionaire to do that. At any level you can decide what you want your intended legacy to be.How to reach Glen: shoot him a message on LinkedIn.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glen-macdonald-5915ba5/Bio: Glen Macdonald is a Senior Vice President at Morgan Stanley and Co-founder and Chairman of the Wealth and Giving Forum (WGF).

An annual tradition for the show kicks off this week as we bring on fellow podcasters from rival NFC West teams in the month of July. This year we kick things off with the team that finished at the bottom of the division, but a team that may have the most intriguing offseason. Bo Brack of the Locked on Cardinals podcast joins the show to talk about a team that had made a lot of moves this offseason. Not only have they made moves in free agency, but they had the first overall draft pick with Kyler Murray. With 2018 Seahawks backup quarterback Brett Hundley as the only other QB seemingly providing competition at the spot in Arizona this year, it looks as though Murray is a lock to be the Week 1 starter. Brandan and Bo talk about any concerns about making sure Murray has a more veteran presence to try and overcome to ensure he really earns that starting spot. With Patrick Peterson suspended for the first six games of the season, including the first matchup with the Seahawks in week 4, it looks as though former Huskies corner Byron Murphy could be lining up as a starter. Bo explains why the schedule lines up favorably for the second round pick to ease his way into the starting role. After breaking down each position, the guys gets into what really matters, ranking the most handsome coaches in the NFC West. Kingsbury joins a division with Carroll, Shanahan and McVay, which clearly makes the West a lock for the best looking group of head coaches in the league. We also make Bo predict the finishing order for each of the teams in the NFC West. Lastly, we recognize former Seahawks owner Ken Behring who passed away this week at the age of 91. After he sold the team to Paul Allen, Behring went on to be involved with some philanthropic endeavors that earn him Better at Life honors for this week.

Former Seahawks owner Ken Behring has died. He's most remembered around here for trying to move the team to LA in 1996, which naturally means most longtime Seahawks fans aren't so fond of the man. The Seahawks posted earlier that they were "saddened" by the loss of Behring. Saddened? Look, you don't have to be dancing on the guy's grave, but unless you knew him personally, are you really that sad? We don't feel much of anything at all. Former Mariner Harold Reynolds joins us, talking about he team's current rebuild, the legacy of the 195 season, and ways he'd improve the game of baseball if he could. Reynolds suggests that banning the shift would be a huge benefit to the game, but is that the right strategy?
