Welcome to the Daily Dad podcast, where we provide one lesson every single day to help you with your most important job, being a parent.

I'm Ryan Holiday, and I draw these lessons from ancient philosophy, modern psychology, practical wisdom, and insights from

parents just like you all over the world. Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps.

I was just visiting my family over Thanksgiving, and one of the things you remember when you see your parents or your

siblings or grandparents or in-laws or whatever, it's just how many stories everyone has

and how easily you can forget them and how it would be nice to have them all in one place.

And that's where today's sponsor comes in. I've gotten Storyworth as a gift. I've given

Storyworth as a gift. Each week, Storyworth emails your loved one thought-provoking questions that you

get to help pick. They respond to that email with a story long or short. It doesn't matter.

You get a copy of it. It gets recorded. And after a year, Storyworth compiles your loved one's

stories and photos in a beautiful

keepsake hardcover book that you'll be able to share and revisit for generations to come.

These books are cool to keep on your coffee table, to put, you know, in the attic.

So future generations, you can get together with them after someone's gone.

The idea is to get all this stuff in one place.

They're keepsakes that you'll hold onto as people get older and memories get hazier.

Help your family members share and capture their stories this holiday season with Storyworth.

That's what made him a war hero. Sure, he did read

those books and he loved those stories, but you know what else this future tough guy liked as a small
