The gift your dad actually needs.

There's more your dad carries
than you've ever thought to ask about.

Most families never have these conversations — not because they don't care, but because life keeps getting in the way. Then something changes, and suddenly everyone is scrambling.

Where things stand

Insurance policies, bank accounts, property records. Most dads know what they have. Almost none of it is written down anywhere the family can find.

What he'd want

Healthcare decisions, estate preferences, messages for later. These conversations rarely happen until they have to — and by then, it's often too late.

The conversations worth having

The stories, the lessons, the context behind decisions. Things your dad has never thought to share — because no one's ever thought to ask.

A binder that holds everything
a family needs to know.

  • 1
    A guided 90-minute session — a trained facilitator draws out information gently, so your dad doesn't have to stare at a blank page.
  • 2
    Life story & memories — their chapters, their wisdom, their words — recorded in their voice.
  • 3
    Important documents index — where every key document lives, so you can find it when it matters.
  • 4
    Wishes & preferences — gently captured, so the hard decisions don't have to be guessed.
  • 5
    A printed, professional binder — not a digital file. Something they hold, add to, and pass on.

Before you decide.

Who runs Milestones?

Milestones was founded by Nikhil Shankaran, a product professional based in Vancouver, BC with 15 years of experience in healthcare and technology. He built this service after going through the process with his own family. Learn more about us →

How do you protect my family's private information?

Privacy is built into how we work. You choose what to share — anything you consider too sensitive, you simply leave out. We will never ask for passwords, SIN numbers, or account credentials; the binder records where important things are, not the keys to them. And once your binder is delivered, we delete the personal data from your session. Milestones was founded by someone who spent 15 years in industries where protecting sensitive data is paramount, and those standards are baked in from day one.

Does he need to prepare anything in advance?

The stories, memories, and life lessons need zero preparation — our facilitator draws those out in conversation, so there's nothing to write ahead of time. The practical side — insurance, accounts, important documents — does take some gathering beforehand; it won't work otherwise. That's exactly what the 30-minute prep call is for: we give you a clear checklist of what to collect, so it's organized rather than overwhelming. Family can pitch in wherever it helps.

How long does it take to receive the binder?

The session is scheduled within 2 weeks of booking. The printed binder is mailed within 1 week after the session.

What if we're not happy with it?

If you're not satisfied with the session or the binder, we'll make it right — or refund you in full. No questions asked.

The one thing she wishes she'd done.

"My son has memories of playing with my mother — but he'll never know who she was. I would give anything to have her words to carry with him. This is the one thing I wish I'd done while she was here."

— Ashwini, Milestones' first customer
