How does a country boy from Montana meet a city girl from Pennsylvania and create a life filled with laughter and deep connection?
Meet storytelling powerhouses Scott Seiffert, Vice President at DreamWorks Animation, and his wife, Lisa Dyson, a dedicated middle school librarian and actress. Together, they reveal the profound ways in which stories—from whimsical childhood books to haunting tales by Edgar Allan Poe—have molded their family culture and helped shape their daughter's identity.
Join us as Scott reminisces about evenings at his family's Montana cabin, where his grandparents' vivid tales painted a lively picture of life in the Wild West. Meanwhile, Lisa reflects on her roots in Philadelphia and shares compelling stories of an immigrant ancestor who was just a child when he bravely crossed an ocean alone.
We explore how emotional connections deepen when we uncover our ancestors’ stories, emphasizing the importance of preserving these narratives. These heartfelt memories and traditions are more than just tales; they are a vital part of our heritage and identity.
Scott and Lisa also share their unique experience on the HGTV show "Revealed," where they learned surprising details about their family history through AncestryDNA tests. A designer incorporated these discoveries into a home remodeling project, surrounding them with whimsical reminders of their origins.
Finally, we delve into the philosophical and deeply personal concept of crafting one’s own obituary. Who gets to tell your life story, and what will they say? Scott and Lisa approach this with a sense of humor, pondering who will get the last word.
Join us for an episode that celebrates the enduring power of storytelling in shaping who we are and connecting us with our loved ones.
