Grandma inspires grandson's product ideafrom @talesdotcom

Transcript

My grandma turned 97, I knew that time was running out. I'd always loved listening to her stories, but I realized none of them were recorded. And once she was gone, those stories would be lost forever. I knew I had to do something about it. So I wrote down a big long list of questions and spent an entire afternoon asking her all about her life. She told me stories Tier never heard before, like how growing up, her neighbor had a pet elephant that they would bathe in the pool. I thought she might be lying, but the story checks out, believe it or not. I felt so close to her during that conversation and learning more about where I came from and definitely where I got my sense of humor. Sorry, mom and dad. And that's when I realized that other families might wanna have conversations like this too with their grandmas and grandpas and moms and dads. So I dedicated myself to understanding the healing powers of family stories. And after two years of hard work interviewing almost a thousand people and recording their life stories, I finally created tails, a card deck that anyone could use to learn more about their family and have that same bonding experience I had with my grandma Better. I felt so called to share this product I'd put so much time into. To. I told all my friends about it, but they just laughed and thought it was a dumb idea. That's okay, though. I'm sure I'll find at least one person on here who might find it useful. So here I am. If you believe in a guy with a card deck and a dream, try out the tales deck with your family and let me know what stories you learn.
