Are We Holding Our Children Back?

The Questions We Forget to Ask Our Parents

Neil Taylor helps families capture the stories, memories, and voices of their parents before it’s too late. After losing his own father to dementia, Neil realised how many stories had gone unrecorded – and how quickly voices and memories can fade. In this conversation, we talk about ageing, grief, family connection, regret, memory, and why older people so often feel unseen. We also explore how understanding our parents’ lives more deeply can help us better understand ourselves. A thoughtful and emotional conversation about storytelling, midlife, family history, and preserving the voices we love.You can find Neil and download his free question guides here: Me and My Old Man [https://meandmyoldman.co.uk/?utm_source=chatgpt.com] This is a public episode.
