(Ep 57) The Value of Creating a Living Legacy through Family Stories and Words of the Heart! with Ruthanne Warnick

Live Well Long Alexandra Van Horn

Ruthanne Warnick is an advocate of capturing family stories and experiences to connect the generations and sharing words of the heart through legacy letters. As a Family L.E.G.A.C.Y. Guide, Ruthanne helps individuals¬¬ glean the most important stories, experiences¬, and words of love to create a non-financial legacy of generational wealth. When combined with photos, they create a lasting family treasure, and, as she puts it, “If a picture is worth a thousand words, a picture plus the words is priceless.”

As some of Ruthanne’s family members passed away, she began to realize how many family stories died with them and how valuable the stories and words that she did have would become. After becoming a certified Guided Autobiography instructor in 2012, Ruthanne founded Capture the Journey to help others take action and avoid the regret of waiting until it’s too late. With that goal in mind, Ruthanne speaks to audiences of all sizes, conducts workshops which are also available to groups and organizations, and creates guidebooks and other resources.

In addition to her legacy work, Ruthanne’s experience over the past 30 years has included non-profit administration, as well as volunteer leadership in a national women’s organization. Advancing from the local to the regional and then to the national level of leadership, Ruthanne has engaged, mentored, and trained hundreds of other women to become leaders themselves.
