This is Our Story - Synopsis

Join brother and sister, Kieran and Briar, as they take a deep dive into their personal backstories in an attempt to understand who they have become. Follow their raw and unrehearsed reflections as they delve into topics which are deeply intertwined with both of their journeys: religion, childhood, race, divorce, family, abuse, international adventure, mental health challenges and more.

Listen to tales of love, confusion, adventure, joy, and heartbreak which begin in rural New Zealand, but over decades span continents.

While these conversations narrate the highs and lows of life, they also celebrate the complexity of each experienced moment which, in their strange way, have become the very foundations of who they are.
