  • What DNA Can — and Can’t — Tell You
    Jan 19 2026

    Episode Summary

    DNA testing is one of the most powerful tools in modern genealogy — but it’s also one of the most misunderstood. In this episode, Barbara explains what DNA can reveal about your biological family, and just as importantly, what it cannot.

    From confirming relationships to interpreting ethnicity estimates, and from learning about shared matches to understanding the limits of what DNA testing can prove, this episode will help you use DNA wisely and responsibly in your family history research.

    What You’ll Learn

    • How DNA testing identifies biological relatives
    • Why shared matches help you narrow down family branches
    • What ethnicity estimates really mean (and don’t mean)
    • The limits of DNA — what it cannot tell you
    • Why DNA must be paired with traditional records
    • How to evaluate relationships that share similar amounts of DNA
    • Why answers sometimes require patience
    • A simple action step to strengthen your DNA research today

    Key Takeaway

    DNA is a powerful guide — but it is not the whole story. It works best when paired with thoughtful traditional research, helping you build a clearer and more accurate picture of your family’s past.

  • Preserving Family Traditions & Holiday Memories
    Jan 5 2026

    Episode 10 — Preserving Family Traditions & Holiday Memories

    In this warm and reflective episode, Barbara explores why family traditions and holiday memories are some of the most emotionally powerful parts of our genealogy — and why they are also among the easiest to lose. She explains how traditions often hold more meaning than dates or documents, and how small sensory details, repeated rituals, and family stories create belonging across generations.

    You’ll learn practical ways to capture your holiday traditions through photos, audio recordings, written memories, and story-based documentation. Barbara walks through how to tell the origin story of a tradition, how to photograph the process instead of only the final result, and how to create a dedicated “Traditions” section inside your physical or digital TIME Capsule.

    This episode includes a guided reflection question, inspiring examples, and a simple action step to help you begin preserving your family’s most meaningful seasonal memories — starting today.
