Stories That Live In Us

We're Doing This Together (with Steve Cowan) | Episode 12


Listen Later

Every Sunday night at 9:30 PM, my dad and I meet virtually to solve family history mysteries together — a tradition we've kept for over seven years, no matter where we are in the world. A tradition that has transformed our relationship from father-daughter to best friends. In this deeply personal episode, I introduce you to my dad, Steve Cowan. He is one of the storytellers who shaped my own journey into storytelling. Listen in as he shares how his journey into genealogy began at age five, sitting at his great-grandmother’s feet during family reunions. From growing up surrounded by hundreds of cousins to our weekly late-night DNA research sessions, we explore how sharing family stories becomes a powerful tool for connection.  Oh, and don’t worry about keeping track of the host of characters in our family story. What matters is experiencing a love for family so contagious, you’ll be inspired to discover and share your own family’s stories.
