The stories of the past are alive in the present. Exploring them illuminates identity, heals generational patterns, and awakens the strength carried forward through your lineage.

Know your ancestors. Know yourself.

Self-Guided Online Courses

I believe our stories don’t begin with us—they begin with those who came before. On my podcast, Know Your Ancestors, I share solo episodes about generational trauma, the power of family stories, and how to discover more about your lineage.

I also invite guests who bring unique perspectives on why our ancestors matter and how their lives still affect us today. Sometimes I even get to do research on a guest’s own family line and share the stories I uncover.

If you’re curious about your roots, want to heal family patterns, or simply love hearing meaningful stories, you’ll feel right at home here.

Hi! I'm Megan Hillyer

--- Holistic Genealogist and Ancestral Story Weaver

I’m a wife, a mom to seven amazing kids, and I live in the beautiful prairies of Alberta, Canada. Family has always been at the center of my life, and so has the desire to understand where we come from.

For the past seven years, I’ve been teaching and guiding others in family history research. In 2020, I earned my degree in Family History Research, and since then I’ve combined both professional training and personal passion to help people discover their roots.

Through my work, I’ve seen how uncovering our ancestors’ stories not only connects us to the past but also brings healing, belonging, and strength into the present.
