The Story We Keep Telling

Question: What's a story from the beginning of your relationship that you still love telling?

About This Conversation

In the very first episode of Our Rough Draft, Denise and Tim look back at how they met, the first impressions that almost got in the way, and the moments that slowly turned friendship into a lasting partnership.

From getting lost on the way to a boat cruise to a surprise proposal in New York City, they share the stories that have become part of their family's history—and reflect on why the little moments often shape a relationship more than the dramatic ones.

This week's conversation ends with a question for you: What's a story from the beginning of your relationship that you still love telling?

Big Idea

The stories we tell about the beginning of a relationship remind us who we are, where we've been, and why we chose each other. Revisiting those stories helps us remember that lasting relationships are built one ordinary moment at a time.
