About We Are Bound
Stories worth keeping
At We Are Bound, we believe every life holds stories worth remembering.
Founded by Narelle Granger, We Are Bound creates beautifully written personal story books for individuals and their families.
Through relaxed in-person conversations, Narelle helps people reflect on their memories, milestones, values and experiences, preserving them in a meaningful keepsake book for generations to come.
This is not about recording a perfect life story. It is about celebrating the moments, voices and memories that make a person who they are.
A lifelong connection to storytelling
Narelle’s career began in media, working across magazines and television, where storytelling was at the centre of everything she did. She later moved into work as a speakers agent, supporting people to share their experiences, knowledge and personal journeys with wider audiences.
Across each of these roles, one thread remained constant: the privilege of listening deeply, asking thoughtful questions, and helping meaningful stories come to life.
This background now shapes the heart of We Are Bound — a gentle, professional and personal approach to preserving life stories with warmth, care and respect.
Because stories are part of who we are
A person’s story is made up of more than dates and achievements. It lives in family traditions, childhood memories, turning points, love stories, lessons learned, quiet rituals and the moments that may otherwise be forgotten.
We Are Bound was created from the belief that these stories are waiting to be heard, held and passed on. For families, the finished book becomes more than a biography. It becomes a lasting connection to someone they love.
A thoughtful approach to memory and dignity
Through her learnings in a Bachelor of Dementia, Narelle has developed a deep appreciation for the connection between memory, identity and dignity, particularly for older people and those living with dementia.
This understanding brings sensitivity to every conversation. Sessions are guided gently, allowing space for reflection, pauses, emotion and the memories that naturally unfold.
Every story is approached with patience, empathy and respect.

Because when a story is captured with care, it becomes something a family can keep forever.
