Starting the conversation is uncomfortable because it's important

Deepening relationships requires a different kind of conversation. That type of conversation is uncomfortable to start so we put it off.

😇

Want to know them better

❤️‍🩹

Unsure how to start the conversation

Promise to do it later

We send you questions to make starting the conversation easier

Ease into it

Our questions range in depth. Level 1 questions are good starter questions while level 3 questions are the most vulnerable.

Ask in a way that works for you

Update or change the question as you see fit. Ask over the phone, in person, or just forward the email.

Deepen the relationship

Consistently have these conversations and follow your interest. Over time it will become second nature and you won't need us.

  • Questions designed to get you more comfortable having different conversations with your parents without requiring much vulnerability.
    • What are they looking forward to?
    • What are they most proud of right now?
    • What are their highs and lows from the last month?
  • Questions designed to learn about them as people.
    • What are some simple things in life that bring them peace and happiness?

    • How do they feel like they succeeded as a parent? How do they feel like they failed?
    • When was the last time they cried in front of others? By themself?
