Overview

When you're gone, what stories will remain, and which ones will disappear forever if you don't write them now? When Joan Bulauitan Gallares lost her mother unexpectedly in 2021, she returned home for the wake and found herself listening to stories she'd never heard before - tales of her Mama's younger years and details that painted a fuller picture of the woman Joan had known only as ""Mama."" It struck her then how much we often leave unsaid and how much disappears when a life ends. Raising a young daughter of her own, Joan began writing down her memories, not just to preserve them, but to be truly seen by the child who would one day want to know who her mother really was. The act of writing became both a gift and a reckoning: a way to honor her ancestors, reconnect with family, and find healing in her own unfolding story. From this deeply personal practice, Lifescribing was born. More than a guidebook of prompts, this soulful companion is filled with Joan's own reflections - tender, funny, and honest - written in the very spirit she invites you to embrace. Whether you're starting your legacy journal, writing for your children, or simply longing to make sense of the life you've lived, this book will help you begin.
