Helping you write letters to prepare your family for life without you
LIFE LTRS is an online course and framework to help you write letters for your loved ones to have in the moments they need you most after you’re gone.
Your legacy shouldn’t be left to chance
Your kids should never have to wonder what you would tell them in life’s biggest moments. Moments like when they…
Get their driver’s license
Graduate and move away from home
Get engaged to the love of their life
Hold their new baby for the first time
You deserve to feel confident your voice will meet them in these moments - whether you can be there with them or not.
Your love is worth protecting in writing
Yes, it’s wise to have Life Insurance and a Will prepared for your passing, but these only address your money and stuff… What about the LOVE? It’s your heart that your kids will need and value the most when you’re gone.
Your love is a priceless gift that only you can give. No other person on earth can speak to your kids as their mom or dad. This has to come from you and can only come from you.
It needs to be written down, to ensure your words will stand the test of time. Your words are too important to “hope they remember” as their memory of you fades over time.
My Mom’s Letter
You can’t stop your loved ones from missing you, but you can help them smile every time they think of you. I know this because it happened for me…
Before my mom passed away, she wrote me a letter that I have cherished throughout life. My hope is that your kids can remember you the same way I remember my mom, and the same way I want my kids to remember me.

My mom was a sharp-minded, deeply-caring, and passionate free-spirit. She grew up moving around the world (Germany, Japan, D.C.), then moved to Colorado when she was 18 to be a hippie (one-room cabin, potato farm, goat named Rosie). Her love for the mountains inspired her to earn her B.S. in Geology, and then she moved back to Maryland before having me and becoming a Master Planner in a manufacturing company. She put her career on hold to be a stay-at-home mom when she had my sister at 42, and then she went back to school and became a Registered Nurse, delivering the commencement speech to her graduating class alongside world-renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson.
She started her battle with lung cancer when I was about halfway through high school. She handled the ups and downs more gracefully than anyone could imagine. She planned family vacations out West, visited the Caribbean, organized and labeled photos, and talked with us openly about what we were going through together. She also wrote letters for us to have when she was gone...
My mom’s letter is three pages of words printed on 8.5x11” paper that I will treasure for a lifetime. It is a place to go when my heart feels the need to draw near to her. It is a reference point of her expectations and advice. It reminds me how much she loved me, and it reminds me who she was. The most incredible aspect of my mom’s letter is how its meaning has evolved over time; as I met my wife, moved around the country, had my first son, and then my daughter, and then two more adorable little boys. It shows me how she would love them, and how I should love them.
This letter didn’t just change how I thought about my mom, but it was such a positive force in shaping how I view life, and death being a part of it, as a whole. It is my testament in encouraging you to do the same.
Writing is tough
Writer’s block is real. No matter how much you love your kids, it’s hard to stare at a blank piece of paper and wrestle with where to start and what to say. There is so much to say to prepare your family for a life without you. Prioritizing is difficult, and the feeling that your time may be running out only complicates how you choose to spend your energy. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed…
You’re not alone. We understand what it feels like to worry about all the moments that your kids will miss you, and struggle to put everything you want to tell them in to words. You just need the right tools to make the writing process clear, simple, and easy, so you can feel confident your legacy is protected and focus on being the best mom or dad in the world.

LIFE LTRS is NOT a writing application
We help you write your letters on your own paper or electronic device. You maintain full ownership and control of them at all times. Your words in these letters are too important to rely on the internet to protect them. We outline and discuss writing and editing options in detail, but LIFE LTRS is not where your letters are written.
LIFE LTRS is NOT a delivery service
Your letters start and remain in your hands at all times, and you control how they should be stewarded upon your passing, right up until that moment. We outline and discuss storage and delivery options in detail, but LIFE LTRS is not involved in storing or delivering your letters.
