Not everyone memory keeps the same way. Let’s find YOUR style.
For eight years, I made these memory books.
Every single week.
That was just my thing. My kids would ask me constantly to pull them down and look at them. And I had them. All of them.
But then life got busy. I went back to studying, started my own business… all while managing two kids and our home. Everything just kind of piled up. And I just couldn't keep up with memory keeping the way I'd been doing it.
So I ended up with thousands of photos from two years just sitting on my phone.
I remember standing in my study one afternoon, looking at my bookshelf. The 2021 book was there. The 2022 book was there. And then... nothing. 2023 and 2024 were just missing.
That's when I realised the system I'd been using for eight years… it didn't survive real life. It was too time-consuming. I needed something simpler or I was going to stop doing this completely.
So I figured out how to do it differently.
Monthly instead of weekly.
One template instead of designing everything from scratch.
iPhone photos and my actual, messy camera roll.
45 minutes, maybe an hour every month.
And it worked.
I caught up on those two lost years in three months. Printed them. Put them on my shelf. My kids opened those yearbooks and relived the lost years again.
While trying to catch up, I realised I was trying to do a version of memory keeping that wasn't working for me anymore.
And that's when it hit me: not everyone memory keeps the same way.
Some people are all about the photos. Some want colour and energy everywhere. Some want space to write. Some see it as a creative practice.
I used to think there was one "right" way to do this.
But there isn't. The method is the same for everyone: 45 minutes, one month, done. But the way it looks and feels? That should match you.
