  • EP 225: Legacy-Driven Leadership: Systems, Scaling, and The RISE Framework with Gary Harper (Part 2)

    EP 225: Legacy-Driven Leadership: Systems, Scaling, and The RISE Framework with Gary Harper (Part 2)
    Jan 12 2026

    Fear can freeze your future—but purpose, when clearly defined, unlocks legacy.

    In Part 2 of our conversation with Gary Harper, the focus shifts from systems to self-leadership. Gary unpacks how fear, misaligned vision, and lack of accountability prevent people from stepping fully into their calling. This episode challenges listeners to stop leading from emotion and start leading from purpose, discipline, and faith.

    Gary introduces the three pillars of purpose—past, present, and future, explains why fear is rooted in ignorance, and shares why you must “put your own oxygen mask on first” before you can effectively lead others or build generational wealth.

    Key Takeaways:

    • 0:45 – Why fear thrives in ignorance and how knowledge dismantles doubt

    • 2:32 – The difference between making statements and asking better, purpose-driven questions

    • 5:10 – Why many people unknowingly chase someone else’s vision instead of their own

    • 7:48 – The three pillars of purpose: learning from your past, stewarding your present, and preparing for your future

    • 11:06 – How mindset and faith work together to sustain long-term growth

    • 14:29 – The “oxygen mask principle” and why self-leadership must come before leading others

    • 17:58 – Why clarity of purpose determines the legacy you leave behind

    Legacy Moment:

    You cannot lead others or build lasting legacy until you first take full responsibility for leading yourself.
