1 - BEGIN WITH A FEW APPROACHABLE QUESTIONS

A Simple Start

Spend just 30-60 minutes answering a few simple, thoughtfully designed questions on our online platform via text, video or audio. These prompts are crafted to help us understand the heartbeat of your family in an easy, natural way. It's light, meaningful and approachable, and designed to feel like conversation, not a task.

We take everything from there.

How It Works

2- We Share Your Family's Unique Story

Expertly Crafted, For You

Our team reviews everything you shared and begins identifying the themes, phrases, and patterns that make your family your family. From there, we carefully shape it into a beautifully written family mission statement - what we call your Guidepost.

You'll receive three polished versions to choose from, each one unique and thoughtfully worded. Then simply select your design style and frame color, and we'll complete the final piece.

3 - Bring it Into your home

Framed. Finished. Meant to Be Lived.

We print your chosen Guidepost on premium archival paper and frame it with museum-quality materials - ready to hang the moment it arrives.

Then, each season, we send a few custom ideas designed around your unique Guidepost to help you live out the values on your wall in simple, meaningful ways.

Your Guidepost becomes both a beautiful centerpiece and a practical touchstone for your family.

  • The Broxton Family

    "The Guidepost experience helped us really zero in on our family’s core values—it's like our own mission statement. Life gets hectic, and it’s easy to lose sight of what truly matters. Guidepost gave us a unique, authentic perspective and a tangible reminder of our foundation. Now our Guidepost banner feels like a compass, guiding us to stay true to who we are as a family."

  • The Rodebaugh Family

    "The thoughtful facilitation from Guidepost united our family in a truly meaningful way. While we talk about our goals often, we rarely delve into deeper priorities. Even our youngest children shared heartfelt insights that moved me to tears. Guidepost distilled our reflections into a clear expression of our values, and seeing those words every day reminds us what matters most.”

  • The Schroder Family

    “Guidepost inspired us to pause and refocus on our core family values. By leading us to truly consider how we show up for one another, we learned more about what really defines us. It’s become our reminder in life’s chaos to prioritize what matters most. The whole process was enlightening, and we’re so grateful for the clarity it brought to our family."
