Using Storytelling to Restore Human Dignity and how to tell stories when shit gets hard. https://www.fiveminutestorytelling.com/
The Legacy Recorder is all about the importance of sharing our stories and memories with the people we love and even strangers. In this episode, the host shares a personal story of how someone printed and kept one of her Facebook posts, and how it was discovered after their passing. This experience was a beautiful reminder of how our words and stories can have untold impacts that we may never know about. By sharing our experiences, we create a deep and connected meaning to the story we're telling, and it can help others who may be going through similar experiences. Join the 5 Minute Storytelling podcast by The Legacy Recorder as they encourage you to share your stories and make an impact in someone else's life today.

This might seem a bit morbid, but there is a reason I’m talking about this now. If you didn’t know, this month is really important to me because it’s the anniversary of the passing of my father. With his death came the core of my storytelling:
how do we honor the person who’s passed—or people who will pass?
How do we honor this life we have right now?
And how do we honor the life next to us, even if we only have five minutes with them?
That is what I hope to encourage through my work, and the work you are doing. So this video I’ll be focusing on life, death, and grief and how we can use the resources I’ll be sharing to honor them all.

A Resource to Check Out -
Goodgrief App - https://www.thelegacyrecorder.com/resources/goodgrief-app-a-resource-for-loss-and-grief
This is a resource for loss and grief like I’ve never seen. I downloaded it in 2017 and have been singing its praises to anyone who would listen since!
The app is designed to match people with similar stories and experiences of loss so we can have a safe space, with others who empathize, while moving through our grief.
I can’t recommend it enough, I hope it will help you as it’s helped me and so many others.

One of the good things that can come from grief is receiving and remembering the community, love, and support you have around you.
To help your storyteller reflect on this, try asking them the following prompts:
Hopefully this will spark joyful memories.

Thank you for taking the time to write your story! It means the world to someone you love, and it means the world to me!
I hope you take a moment to share your achievement with someone in your life! You may inspire them to write their own story and share their moments with you.
What I have found in doing the work of listening to others, is that people need to feel heard, seen, and loved. We can do this by listening intentionally and being present in each moment with the person in front of us (or beside us).
I hope you have a beautiful, wonderful day!
Happy Writing,
Gael, the Legacy Lady
