My Story Of Life

Everyone has a story to tell what’s yours? A big part of our story includes the stories of those who came before us. Imagine what we can learn about ourselves by discovering and documenting the lives of our parents and grandparents for generations to come.

Invest in your relationship with yourself: we all have a tendency to put others first, but in doing so, we can sometimes neglect our relationship with ourselves. Let me be your advocate and show you a kinder, gentler way to treat the most important person in your life.

Adult children often don’t know what shape they are parents lives and wait too long to ask. That’s starting to change. As significant as parents are in life their adult children often don’t know what shape them and what they were like before they became mom and dad. They may be curious about their parents background and choices I don’t think to ask questions or know how to begin. They are busy with raising their families and jobs or live hundreds of miles away. Parents themselves aren’t always forthcoming, telling only the happy stories and filtering out painful ones. Sound out think their lives are all that interesting. Yet today, for some people, that is starting to change. There’s a growing interest in understanding our parents lives. Part of it is generational: younger people are more transparent and used to telling the story of their own lives often online for mini to see and expect it from others. There is also a growing interest in ancestry and the rise in home DNA kits leaves people wanting to know more of their family stories while greater awareness of dementia makes capturing them soon all the more urgent.

About a third of Americans admire what their parents have achieved but don’t know how they did it. One and five don’t know anything about their parents before they became parents and 45% learn more about their parents from discovering photos and family possessions than Direct conversations with them. Relationships with parents regardless of how complicated are the ones a person takes through life. Nearly everyone talks about their parents. It’s a reminder of the primacy of that relationship.
