How It Works

Before memories fade, stories can still be told.

The Story We Leave™ gives you three simple ways to preserve the memories, experiences, relationships, and wisdom that make your life meaningful. Because not everyone remembers the same way. Some people write. Some people talk.
Some simply need someone to ask the right questions.

Choose the way that feels right for you.


WRITE IT

Preserve Your Memories at Your Own Pace

TSWL guided journals use thoughtful prompts to help you remember and reflect on the people, experiences, traditions, lessons, and moments that shaped your life.

You don't have to be a writer. You just have to begin.

TALK IT

Share Your Story With a TSWL Facilitator

Some memories are easier to tell than they are to write.

A trained TSWL Facilitator guides you through meaningful conversation, asking thoughtful questions and helping you capture the stories that matter most.

Sessions can be one-on-one, with family, or in a small group.

You don't have to tell your whole life story. Just the stories that matter to you.

You Don't Have to Tell Your Whole Story

A childhood memory.
A person who changed your life.
A family tradition.
Something you survived.
A lesson you learned.
A place you'll never forget.
A moment when everything changed.

One memory can hold a lifetime of meaning.


Give Someone the Gift of Being Heard

A TSWL Memory Call™ can be a meaningful gift for a parent, grandparent, family member, or someone whose stories deserve to be remembered.

Sometimes the greatest gift isn't another thing.
It's having someone willing to listen.
