A Legacy Now Lived
Because everything about you matters. You are valuable, you are worthy, you are loved beyond measure.
Strength, honor, dignity, and wisdom are her clothing and she can laugh without fear of the future. Proverbs 31:25-26
(paraphrased)
She is an expert in her field and desires to see individuals and families discover the missing threads in the tapestries of their lives and design them into a tapestry of love, life, laughter and legacy. “Heirloom Coaching” will help you discover those missing threads.
Together we will explore what is working well, and how can we all grow in our relationships. What strategies will work for your family, how can the relationships be improved? Which resources are we currently tapping into? Which are still desired? How can they be acquired? What’s the next best step? What do we really want our family to look like and why don’t we have it? How do each of us want to be remembered in our family? We use a process of consistent re-evaluation, re-discovery, and restoration! We never assign blame, shame or point fingers. We learn together to own our stories, our reactions and responses. Coaching illuminates opportunities, and possibilities, focuses on action and fosters growth. These proven techniques can assist you as you walk into your best life! It is time to create your Legacy!
LeAnne is an Adoptee who is “in reunion” with her first family. LeAnne understands what it means to grow up adopted, as she is the third of four adopted children in her family. LeAnne spent her first months of life in foster care, and was then welcomed into her forever family at three months of age. She grew up in a family that experienced joy, abuse, fun, addiction, togetherness, and divorce, all the while they strived to love, care for and accept each other with honor. LeAnne’s story includes loss, rejection, guilt, shame, grief, identity issues, relationship challenges, control issues and more! Her unique story and journey has brought her into coaching as she provides a unique and rare look into the heart of adoption, and the tapestry of a family. She is not afraid to talk about the hard stuff. She never shies away from truth and holds personal integrity, her values and her faith in the highest regard. She believes that life begins at conception, and that the life you live before you are “born” really matters. It impacts our “Who” in epic proportions!
At 18 years of age LeAnne set off to discover life and learn what it meant to be a “responsible adult”. During that time, she met and married her husband of 39 years, Duane. She has been called a “devoted warrior wife” and a “passionate and optimistic mom”! LeAnne understands that her adoption experience affects the way she shows up in her marriage and with her children. She does not claim to have it all figured out, nor have the Parsons lived a “perfect life” by any stretch, but they do live a “grateful life”. Together she and Duane have loved, raised, cherished, home-educated, and celebrated two amazing biological children, Jacob and Sarah, who have now launched into the adult world, happy, married, growing and thriving! LeAnne is also thrilled to announce that she is a loving grammie to 7 amazing humans. They are her delight and 7 of the many reasons she has a twinkle in her eyes and a spring in her step!
LeAnne and her family have had the honor of fostering two beautiful children. While they were in her home she nurtured, cared for them and was an integral member of the team loving them through the transition into their forever families. She considers it an incredible honor and privilege to walk this journey with each family group, and today continues to maintain contact with both families.
LeAnne is enjoying the life of a devoted warrior wife, a new nester, and a mom-in-law (love)! She has spent the last 50 + years piecing together her life story, and weaving her own legacy of love with her family, one thread at a time. Her life, her experiences, her path to healing and wholeness, as well as her education, and passion for lifelong learning, have created a Tapestry of Love and Legacy.
