PART I:
The Basics
What's the story you most want people to know about your life?
How would the people who know you best describe you?
What period of your life do you most want this to focus on?
Is there anything you're uncertain about including?
The Early Years
What's the earliest memory you can picture clearly?
Where did you grow up, and what did it look, smell, and feel like?
What was your home like — the physical place, the atmosphere, the rules?
Were you closer to your mother or your father, and what does one specific moment with them tell you about why?
What did you want to be when you grew up, and where did that idea come from?
What role did religion or spirituality play in your upbringing? Have your beliefs changed over the years?
The People
Who was the most important person in your childhood and why?
Is there someone who believed in you before you believed in yourself?
Who hurt you, and how did that shape you?
Is there someone you've lost that you'd want this to honor?
Is there a relationship you'd want to set the record straight about?
PART II:
Turning Points
What's the moment in your life you think about most — the one that changed everything?
Was there a decision you made that you've never stopped thinking about?
Did you ever walk away from something — a job, a relationship, a place — and wonder what would have happened if you'd stayed?
What's the hardest thing you've ever been through, and what did it teach you?
Was there a moment when you surprised yourself — when you did something you didn't know you were capable of?
Work & Education
How did you end up doing what you did for a living — was it a choice or did it just happen?
What role did education play in your life? Do any teachers or particular moments stand out?
What are you most proud of professionally?
Was there a cost to your ambition — something you gave up or someone you shortchanged?
If you could do it over, what would you do differently?
What did your work teach you about yourself?
The Losses
Who have you lost that you still think about every day?
Was there a loss that fundamentally changed who you are?
Is there something you wish you'd said to someone before they were gone?
Have you ever lost a version of yourself — a belief, an identity, a future you'd planned on?
What have you survived that you're still surprised you got through?
PART III:
The Good Stuff
What's the happiest you've ever been, and what was happening around you?
What's a memory that still makes you laugh out loud?
What are you most proud of — not professionally, but as a human being?
What's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen or experienced?
If you could relive one day exactly as it was, which day would it be? The Legacy
The Legacy

What do you most want them to understand about your life?
What do you want them to know about who you were — not what you accomplished, but who you actually were?
Is there something you've never said out loud that this might be your chance to say?
When someone finishes reading this, what do you want them to feel?
Is there anything else?
