On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Sara Hardwick from Giftology to dive deep into the legacy of our great friend and Giftology founder, John Ruhlin. Sara opens up about how the Giftology team has carried on John's mission of generosity, relationship-building, and faith following his unexpected passing. We explore the powerful "return on relationships" philosophy that made John's approach to gifting and human connection so unique, how intentional generosity can transform your business and personal life, and what it looks like to truly honor someone's legacy. Sara shares behind-the-scenes stories, how Giftology helps leaders and entrepreneurs grow through strategic gift-giving, and practical ways you can bring more heart and impact to your work.
