This is for people who want to preserve family memories but don’t know where to start.

If you have photos, letters, recipes, or stories you care about — and feel overwhelmed by how to begin — this free starter kit gives you a clear, gentle entry point.

No special equipment. No technical expertise.

Just a place to start.

This guide helps when:

• you’re holding family memories but haven’t organized them yet
• you want to preserve stories before they’re lost
• technology feels intimidating or unclear
• you need a small, achievable first step

Whether you have one box of photos or a lifetime of material, this guide helps you begin.

Inside, you’ll find:

• a 10-page printable PDF guide
• reflection prompts to uncover the stories behind your items

• steps for digitizing and backing up what matters

Everything is designed to be approachable and repeatable.

• you’re ready to start preserving memories without pressure
• you want clarity, not a complicated system
• you need structure that respects your time and energy

You can complete this in one sitting or return to it slowly.
