Review Legacy by Design
I absolutely loved "Legacy by Design: How to Shift Your Mindset on Taxes and Build Your Legacy"! It's far more than just a tax guide; it's a deeply personal and inspiring journey interwoven with practical, actionable advice. Jenia Serebrin's story of immigrating to the United States and building her successful business is captivating in itself. Reading about her struggles and triumphs resonated deeply, making the financial advice feel less like a lecture and more like a conversation with a supportive friend who's been through the trenches.
What truly impressed me was the book's holistic approach. It doesn't shy away from the often-daunting aspects of bookkeeping, financial statements, and taxes, but it cleverly frames them not as obstacles, but as essential building blocks in creating a lasting legacy. Jenia masterfully dismantles the fear and intimidation surrounding these topics, replacing them with a sense of empowerment and control. Her tips and strategies are clear, concise, and incredibly helpful, even for someone like me who previously considered taxes a terrifying, unavoidable evil. Honestly, I now find myself…dare I say it… intrigued by the possibilities!
The book's focus on mindset is equally transformative. Jenia emphasizes the crucial link between our goals, our actions, and the legacy we want to leave behind. This isn't just about accumulating wealth; it's about aligning our finances with our values and aspirations. She encourages readers to think big, to dream boldly, and to create a business and a life that truly reflects their passions and purpose. This shift in perspective is invaluable, and it's something I'll carry with me long after I've finished reading.
The personal anecdotes sprinkled throughout the book add a layer of warmth and relatability. Jenia's vulnerability and honesty make her advice feel genuine and authentic. She shares not only her successes but also her setbacks, reminding us that building a legacy is a process, not a destination, and that it's perfectly okay to stumble along the way. It's this blend of practical expertise and heartfelt storytelling that makes "Legacy by Design" such a compelling and memorable read.
I particularly appreciated the emphasis on accurate financial record-keeping. Jenia's message that keeping a close eye on your financials isn't just "good practice" but absolutely fundamental to building a legitimate and thriving business really hit home. It's a message I intend to wholeheartedly embrace. Overall, "Legacy by Design" is a must-read for any entrepreneur, particularly women entrepreneurs, who want to take control of their financial future and create a business that aligns with their deepest values and aspirations. It's an empowering, inspiring, and surprisingly enjoyable read that left me feeling motivated and ready to tackle my own legacy with renewed purpose and confidence. Highly recommended!
