“When I got my master's degree, I created an Ownstory to collect messages from everyone who supported me through those tough study nights. 43 people contributed — from my kindergarten teacher to my current boss. I revealed it at my graduation party and there wasn't a dry eye in the room. It's the most meaningful gift I've ever received.”
