Step Off the Hamster Wheel.
Step Into Your Power.
You’ve done everything right, but there’s something deeper calling you. It’s time to move beyond the status quo and build the legacy you were born for.
You’ve been doing everything right—ticking off every box they said you needed to.
You’ve got the titles, the accolades. But the short-term wins? They’re no longer filling you up. Deep down, something bigger is calling you—a real, lasting impact. You weren’t made to run in circles; you were built to create real change. The status quo keeps you stuck in the cycle of being a human doing. But you’re ready to be a human being– free to live by your own design.
At 7Gen Legacy Group, we work with changemakers, CEOs, entrepreneurs, and humans creating social change. We don’t do estate planning; we are legacy planners. Through our signature framework, rooted in the Six Realms of a life well-lived, we help you build a blueprint for a legacy that ripples through the next seven generations. Right now, you're living the dreams your ancestors couldn't even dare to speak. This is your moment to step into your true potential— to break free from distractions and focus on long-term, generational health.
You weren’t made to run in circles

Personal Legacy
Beginnings / Becoming / Beyond
You Are the Dream They Dreamed Awake. Now It’s Your Time to Dream.
Your life is the result of centuries of decisions. Now, you have the power to shape the future.
For many, living in joy and intention is a revolutionary act. Every success, freedom, and even struggle you face are echoes of choices made long ago. You’re living the legacy of those who fought for change or stayed with the familiar. Centuries of decisions—on wealth, leadership, and health—paved the way for where you stand today.
Your Personal Legacy is about aligning your life with what matters most. It’s about creating a ripple effect that extends far beyond today. By exploring the Six Realms—Play, Relationships & Community, Service, Work, Financial Freedom, and Well-being—you’ll discover how each decision you make can uplift your life and those who come after you.
You’re not out of options; you’re at a new beginning.

“There were two moments of working with Shawna. One as a school leader, and the other during a deep crisis in my life. Working with her during this deep crisis provided me with greater insight into who I am. She reminded me of a part of myself that I had begun to forget. Shawna reminded me of my purpose, and my brilliance, and encouraged me to lean into it.”
- CEO of a Public School, Personal Legacy 1:1 Executive Coaching Client
“Working with Shawna was literally a game changer. She coached me through some of the work; and also spoke life into me as a person, a leader, especially as a woman of color.”
- CEO of a Small Business, Personal Legacy 1:1 Executive Coaching Client
“Shawna is a deep listener, sincere and honest. There are times when coaches have an agenda, and will often veer those they coach towards that agenda. Shawna's ability to listen deeply helped me to not only feel heard, but it also meant that she recognized my strengths and pushed me to always remember them.”
- Senior Leader of a Nonprofit, Personal Legacy 1:1 Executive Coaching Client
"Unleash Your Legacy came at a time when I needed it. Not only was it helpful to have a moment to slow down and reflect but it was also really special to do this reflection in a way that is interconnected with other people (ie. ancestors and next generations)."
- Executive Director of a Global Nonprofit, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“Legacy felt like a thing that only certain people could have or create. You helped focus me on the question, 'How am I living?' That is a very different question than I'd asked myself before.”
- Business Owner of a Boutique Consulting Firm, Personal Legacy Executive Coaching Client
“I am telling everyone I know about this.”
- Small Business Owner in the Wellness Sector, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“This is a totally new, joyful framework. It is very insightful and very useful. Thank you for this gift of legacy.”
- Chief Schools Officer of a Public School Network, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“Unleash Your Legacy was dope! This really helped energize me as I think more critically about my life and where I’ve been, where I’m going, and who I am becoming. The legacy visualization broke me wide open (in the best way).”
– Senior Leader of a National Nonprofit, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“SUCH POWERFUL WORK- thank you for this gift!”
- CEO of a Public School Network, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“You’re an amazing facilitator Shawna! You created such a tremendous experience today. I feel so much lighter in my journey, how I think about my legacy, and the legacy I want to live and leave behind. Thank you for the gift of today’s session. It was great to be in community with you all.”
- Senior Vice President of a Fellowship Program, Unleash Your Legacy Client
“I appreciated the opportunity to actually craft my 'first, shitty draft' of my personal legacy statement in the session itself. I'm excited to return and build on this.”
- Entrepreneur in the Social Sector, Unleash Your Legacy Client
"This workshop came at a time when I needed it. Not only was it helpful to have a moment to slow down and reflect but it was also really special to do this reflection in a way that is interconnected with other people (ie. ancestors and next generations)."
- Business Owner of a Wellness Collaborative, Unleash Your Legacy Client
"Unleash Your Legacy helped energize me as I think more critically about my life and where I've been, where I'm going, and who I am becoming."
- Employee Relations Group Lead in a Global Nonprofit, Unleash Your Legacy Client
"Unleash Your Legacy was a really well curated and tightly blocked out session. There were laughter and moments of levity, music, and a sense of love in a room of (mostly) strangers. It felt spacious and generous, but a ton of ground covered -- which for me, is always a sign of magic at work."
- Senior Vice President, Global Corporation
“Everyone in the world should take Unleash Your Legacy!"
- CEO and Founder of a Financial Advising Firm, Unleash Your Legacy Client
Organizational Legacy
Roots / Alignment / Collective Impact
Lead With Intention, Not Reaction. Build an Organization That Lasts.
Are you leading for today, or for generations to come? Every decision you make shapes the future of your organization, but are you making those choices with intention, or letting distractions take over? Your organization is already creating a legacy—whether you're aware of it or not. The real question is, what kind of legacy are you building?
For our organizational legacy work, we partner with organizational leaders, executives, and entrepreneurs to move beyond quick fixes to build systems that fuel sustainable growth and healthy succession. We focus on helping CEOs gain clarity and aligning leadership teams, turning complexity into strength. Rooted in the wisdom of Seven Generations and the Sankofa principle, our work is about more than task management—it’s about connecting as a collective to truly transform your impact. We help you craft decision-making frameworks that hold up under pressure and create powerful team dynamics that last. When your team leads with intention, your organization becomes a force for change—shaping the future, one choice at a time, for generations of leaders and communities.

“Shawna was the first person I experienced who truly pushed my practice. She always had feedback and/or a resource that could better support my work. And because she leads through probing that keeps the cognitive load on me, the thinking steps quickly become transferable outside of our time together. She helped my vision for my team and a path towards executing that vision become increasingly strong.”
- CEO of a School Network, Organizational Legacy 1:1 Executive Coaching Client
“It's so important to make space for this work in an ongoing manner. Though we just finished year 1, if we want to be successful in year 5, this work has to happen now, not starting in year 5.”
-Head of Schools in a Public School Network, Aligning Your Leadership Team Client
“Fantastic facilitation, fantastic and thoughtful colleagues. This was the best professional learning I've had in at least a decade. I am so grateful that I am part of this community!”
- Chief Executive Officer of a National Nonprofit, Managing and Sustaining Your Organizational Legacy Client
“I would strongly recommend this group learning experience to a colleague. I am leaving with clarity and communication around roles and expectations that align with our organizational legacy and how we make decisions. I found it the best coaching/training thus far in my work.”
- Head of Schools of a Public School Network, Managing and Sustaining Your Organizational Legacy Client
“I can’t thank you enough for how held and supported I felt through my coaching experience. Who we were as an organization a year ago compared to who we are coming out of this coaching experience is just beautiful."
- CEO of a Global Nonprofit, Organizational Legacy 1:1 Executive Coaching Client
“7Gen creates a learning environment that is brave, challenging, and mindful to all leaders present. They use actionable strategies and provide clear follow up steps that prepare me as a leader to utilize what I learned tomorrow. I am so grateful!”
- School Leadership Fellow, Managing and Sustaining Your Organizational Legacy Client
“Shawna is an extraordinary listener who is extremely skilled at providing the perfect balance of cognitive executive coaching with concrete tools that can be immediately used. She holds a sacred and safe space for those she coaches which allowed me to be vulnerable and authentic in our conversations. I felt extremely supported and accountable to the next steps following each coaching session.”
