Kyle Thiermann joins me to talk about his book One Last Question Before You Go, a thoughtful guide designed to help readers ask their parents meaningful questions that reframe how we see them. Kyle shares how asking the right questions can unlock powerful family stories, deepen connection, and give us new insight into who our parents are beyond their roles. We also explore how storytelling plays a vital role in family learning and emotional legacy.
