Helps memories return
Gentle questions can bring back people, places and moments you may not have thought about in years.
Meet Jonathan
Your Personal Story Companion
Every life tells a story.
Some stories are written down.
Some live only in old photographs.
Some are shared around the dinner table…
and some are in danger of being lost forever.
That’s why Jonathan exists.
Jonathan is a gentle companion for the act of remembering.
Why Jonathan exists
Sometimes the hardest part is knowing where to begin
Jonathan is here to help memories return naturally.
He asks thoughtful questions.
He helps organize the moments that matter.
And when the words are difficult, he helps you find a way to express them without taking over your story.
What Jonathan does
A quiet guide through the things you remember
Helps you find the words
Jonathan helps shape your thoughts while keeping the story true to your voice.
Helps organize a lifetime
Childhood, family, work, adventures, lessons and the moments in between can be explored one memory at a time.
Helps you continue
You do not have to tell everything in one sitting. Jonathan helps you return when you are ready.
Your story, always yours
Your story always remains yours
Jonathan is not here to replace your memories, your words or your family’s voice.
He is here to listen, guide and help you make sense of what you already carry.
- You decide what is included.
- You review every word.
- Nothing becomes part of your story unless you choose it.
An example
One question can open a whole chapter
Jonathan said: Jonathan
Tell me about the home you grew up in.
Storyteller said: Storyteller
It was a small weatherboard house near the coast. We could hear the ocean at night.
Jonathan said: Jonathan
What do you remember most clearly when you picture that house?
Storyteller said: Storyteller
The kitchen table. Everyone gathered there, especially on Sundays.
One thoughtful question can open the door to an entire chapter.
