Discover Your Legacy Script Are you writing your own story, or following someone else's ready-made script? Your Legacy decisions are driven by one of 4 hidden archetypes. Take the Legacy Script Assessment to discover if you are a Peacemaker, Steward, Caretaker, or Architect. **The Science Behind the Script**: Whether you have a Will or not, you have a 'Legacy Script' - an unconscious set of rules and beliefs about money and mortality handed down through your family. This script is your default setting. It dictates how you feel about protecting your family. It is the reason some people build "Fort Knox" estates, while others avoid the topic entirely to keep the peace. This script can be a source of strength, or it can be the blind spot that leaves you Atestate. **Take the assessment below to see which legacy script is running your life.** --- ## Take the Assessment & Discover Your Legacy Script 1.
