Have you ever wished you knew more about your grandmother’s life? Or wanted to pass down stories that your kids or grandkids will treasure forever?
If so, you’re not alone—and you’re exactly who I created this for.
Why I Created Pen Your Past™
I’m a remote-working grandma approaching 50, and lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what really lasts. Not the stuff we buy or the achievements we list on a résumé—but the moments, the lessons, and the memories that make us who we are.
That’s why I created Pen Your Past™: The First Stories Collection—a printable storytelling kit designed to help women (especially in midlife and beyond) start preserving their personal stories in a way that feels simple, warm, and meaningful.
What It Is
The First Stories Collection includes:
- 🖋️ 18 legacy-building writing prompts—designed to spark memories you’ll want to pass on
- 📄 A printable format—perfect for keeping in a binder or adding to your memory journal
- 💡 A storytelling guide—with cozy question helpers, sentence starters, and gentle ideas to make writing easier
Whether you’re writing just for yourself or want to leave something behind for your family, this is your invitation to begin.
How It Fits Into the Life On Purpose Reset™
This storytelling kit is part of the Reflect phase in my 3-part journey for women over 45:
| 🔁 Reset | 💵 Rebuild | ✍️ Reflect |
|---|---|---|
| Clear digital and emotional clutter | Build financial confidence and plan your solo future | Preserve your memories and leave a legacy that matters |
Reflect is about more than nostalgia—it’s about honoring who you are and making sure your wisdom lives on.
Who It’s For
- Women over 45 who want to reflect on life and preserve their stories
- Grandmothers, solo moms, or midlife women navigating new chapters
- Anyone who wishes they had more time to ask the people they love about their lives
It’s also perfect for:
- 💬 Family gatherings and reunions
- 📸 Pairing with printed photos and keepsakes
- 🗂️ Memory kits and life planning binders
How to Use It
- Download and print the collection
- Start with any prompt that speaks to you
- Write a short memory—no perfection required!
- Keep it in a binder, add to it over time, or share it as a gift
Here’s One of My Favorite Prompts:
“The Ordinary Day I Wish I Could Relive…”
You don’t need a dramatic story. Just something real, something meaningful, something that makes you smile.
