Leave a Little Love Along the Way.
A family adventure built around community, connection and showing up.
Annalyse, Leon, Hudson and Beckham. Real family moments. Local people. A little good left behind.
Adventure, purpose, people, and a little good left behind.
The project story
We got tired of waiting for life to slow down.
Two parents, two little boys and a lot of “someday.” So we stopped waiting until we had more to give and decided to go, together, with our hands open.
In spring 2027, we’re heading along the coast, meeting people already doing meaningful work. We listen, pitch in where it is useful and share their stories. This is a journey with communities, not at them.
We want our boys to grow up knowing kindness is something you do.
At every stop
Listen to local people. Pitch in where it is useful. Share honest photos, video and words that shine a light on the work already happening.
Storytelling + Social Sticker Co.
Chapter collaborations include two edited vertical videos, 10–15 photos with usage rights, live stories and an honest parent review. Two original custom sticker designs, 80 stickers total. Details and rates on request.
Let’s leave a little love.

The short version
- What it is
- The Leave a Little Love Project — one family travelling from the southernmost point to the northernmost point, helping with local causes along the way and sharing the stories.
- Who
- Annalyse Nettles, her husband and their two little boys.
- Why
- Slowing down long enough to notice real life: human connection, helping people, being a little ridiculous, and leaving each place a bit better than we found it.
- How communities are involved
- Each stop is shaped with the people who live there — a cleanup, a supply drive, a local cause, a small business, a tradition worth showing off.
- Where to follow

Announcement · Use when the project first goes public in a market
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FAMILY SETS OUT TO LEAVE A LITTLE LOVE — SOUTHERNMOST POINT TO NORTHERNMOST POINT [CITY, STATE] — [DATE] — The Nettles family is planning a journey from the southernmost point to the northernmost point with a simple idea behind it: stop in real communities, help with something local that matters, and share the story so other people feel like they can do the same. "We were tired of the constant go, go, go," said Annalyse Nettles. "The things that make us feel most alive have never been about doing more. They're human connection, helping people, being a little ridiculous, and creating real memories." Every stop is shaped with the people who live there — a shoreline cleanup, a supply drive, a classroom, a small business, a local tradition. Dates, stops and funding are still being put together, and the family is openly inviting communities, organizations and supporters to help shape the route. The Leave a Little Love Project follows one family — two parents and two little boys — travelling from the southernmost point to the northernmost point, working alongside local communities on the causes they care about and sharing those stories along the way.
