From People Who've Done Hard Things (with Jordan Lundskog) | Episode 22

from Stories That Live In Us · host Crista Cowan | The Barefoot Genealogist

When Jordan Lundskog lost his beloved grandfather at age 16, he discovered that family stories aren't just tales from the past – they're bridges between generations. Now a product manager at Ancestry® and father of young children, Jordan shares how uncovering his grandfather's high school football photo sparked an unexpected journey through time. From Civil War ancestors who stood up for their beliefs to Swedish immigrants who crossed oceans alone at age ten, each discovery has shown him that telling our children they can do hard things becomes profound when we can point to the ancestors whose blood flows in their veins. Join me for a touching conversation about how family stories shape us, inspire resilience, and transform abstract history into deeply personal legacy.〰️ 🌳 🧬 〰️  🎧 Ready to discover more stories that could transform your family connections?
