And preserve your most meaningful stories, wisdom and insights in a beautifully guided journal
Dear Reader,
For three years, I've been sharing weekly stories that help us find meaning in life's small moments. Now, I want to help you do the same.
Introducing the new Monday Minutes Journal.
It’s a journal designed specifically for anyone who wants to preserve their most meaningful stories and wisdom in minutes (not hours).
And for those who want to know exactly how to capture the moments that matter most… without feeling overwhelmed by when and where to start or how to stay consistent.
The journal shares my weekly stories and gives you room to respond with your own memories on a similar topic. It’s easy, like a conversation.

Between busy schedules and the age of fleeting social media posts and rushed text messages, we're losing the deep, meaningful connections that come from sharing our real experiences and hard-earned wisdom. We’re not taking time to do the reflection that turns our experiences into wisdom and helps us become our better selves.
And we’re not communicating who we are to our children and grandchildren.
They are craving more than just dates and facts–they want to know YOU. Your thoughts. Your feelings. The small moments that shaped who you are and could shape who they become, too.
Think about how much you wish you had your own great-grandparents’ stories written down while learning about your DNA and your ancestors.
Gift your stories and wisdom to yourself, and to future generations,
You might think "nothing special happened this week."
But those ordinary moments–the Sunday dinners, the quiet conversations, the small traditions, the people we notice on the street – these are the threads we weave into our sense of who we are, and that prompt new thoughts about who we want to be.
The Monday Minutes Journal helps you capture and reflect on these fleeting moments before they fade away.
Each week's entry begins with one of my personal stories, carefully chosen to spark your own memories. As you read about my experiences with family, faith, and everyday life, you'll find yourself remembering and reflecting on similar moments from your own life.
The gentle prompts that follow make it natural to reflect and write about what matters most.
Ultimately the Monday Minutes Journal is designed to help you:
Transform everyday experiences into meaningful memories
Discover patterns and wisdom in your weekly reflections
Preserve the small moments that shape your family
Find meaning in life's ordinary rhythms
Transform everyday experiences into meaningful memories

This Journal is even for people who don't journal. We make it easy!
You don't need to be a writer to record your thoughts–you just need to be yourself.
In each weekly entry, I share one of my own casual, conversational stories to show you that perfect writing isn't the point.
Connection is.
Here’s the simple journaling process you'll follow:
Read my short story to get inspired
Use the simple prompts to guide your reflection
Write like you talk so can say what you really mean. Your authentic thoughts are what really matter. (And if you're sharing this with relatives eventually, your authentic thoughts are exactly what they want to read.)

The 5-minutes-a-week format prevents overwhelm. Date the entries yourself so you can write when you want to. It fits your life–not the other way around! By the end of a year, you’ll have created a book full of reflections and memories to cherish–and spent barely four hours total on it.
Small commitment, big impact!
