A new year doesn’t require a new you — it requires a clearer direction.

In this foundational episode of Legacy Life with the Lacefields, Chad and Megan share the word God placed on their hearts for 2026: Advance. Not rushed growth. Not burnout-driven hustle. But forward movement rooted in faith, alignment, and intention.

This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and reframe how you approach the year ahead. Instead of chasing resolutions that fade, Chad and Megan introduce a simple but powerful framework that helps guide decisions, priorities, and daily rhythms throughout the year.

They unpack how choosing a word becomes a filter for decision-making, a posture for everyday life, and a way to stay aligned with what matters most — especially in seasons that feel busy, overwhelming, or unclear.

At the heart of this episode are four foundational pillars that shape their family, leadership, and legacy:

The Four Pillars of Advancement

Faith – Building everything on a deep, anchored relationship with God

Family – Being intentional with marriage, children, and grandchildren

Fitness – Stewarding physical, mental, and emotional health for longevity and impact

Focus – Living with clarity in work, calling, and stewardship

Rather than chasing perfection, this episode emphasizes progress, self-awareness, and sustainable growth. Chad and Megan share real-life examples from their marriage, parenting, grandparenting, and careers, showing how alignment leads to peace, clarity, and momentum.

You’ll also hear practical encouragement for listeners who feel behind, overwhelmed, or stuck. This episode reminds you that growth doesn’t happen overnight — and that even choosing one pillar to focus on can begin meaningful change.

This is not just an episode — it’s the starting line of a year-long conversation about living anchored, intentional, and aligned with God’s direction.
