Workbook
For Chilean Families
Identidad, Historia, y las Conversaciones Entre Generaciones
Silence protected people. This names what silence protected and replaces it.
For the Chilean-heritage family that carries history between generations — some of it spoken, some of it not — and is ready to have the conversations that close the distance between what was lived, what was passed down, and what each generation is choosing to build
The Name It First Experience
Chilean families carry more history than most. The political ruptures, the exile, the things that could not be said during certain decades — these move through families as inherited silences, unspoken values, and generational distances that can be hard to cross. This workbook structures the conversations that cross that distance: what was lived, what was transmitted, and what each generation is choosing for itself. The work ends with The Chilean Families Agreement — a shared document naming the values that belong to this family, in this generation, on their own terms.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What does Chilean identity mean in your household — the specific region, the history of the dictatorship and resistance, and what your family lived through and carries?
- What from Chilean culture does your family most want to carry forward — and what do you want the next generation to understand?
- What do you want to document about your family's Chilean identity — the full story, not the sanitized version?
