  3. You Matter: A Courageous Conversation About Mental Health, Motherhood, and Healing

    4 MAY

    You Matter: A Courageous Conversation About Mental Health, Motherhood, and Healing

    I started this Quick Before You Forget journey after getting laid off in January 2026 from what I believed and hoped was my dream job. There was no master plan, aside from intentionally embracing the chaos of building the rocket ship in the air. There is just me on my yellow brick road making a conscious decision to keep showing up, keep creating, and trust who I’d meet along the way. In this special Mother's Day episode of Quick Before You Forget, I sat down with Sharon Johnson, who I’ve been connected with mostly through TikTok for four years. And honestly, it showed through in our vulnerability, honesty, and very real friendship despite having never spoken before this moment. We talked about leaving a belief system that no longer aligned. About motherhood without perfectionism. About suicidal ideation, TMS, therapy, and the slow rebuilding of hope. About body image, shame, boundaries, and learning to trust yourself again. She said a lot that resonated with me deeply, including: What if life isn’t something you have to get right…what if it’s an experiment you’re allowed to live inside of? We talked about managing mental health like a chronic illness without shame. About letting your kids see you care for yourself. About the sacredness of ordinary moments. If you’ve ever outgrown the story you were handed… If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re allowed to change or to have more fun or to create the life you’ve always dreamed of… You are. This one felt brave. And honest. And full of hope. I can’t wait for you to listen to it and tell me what you think.

    What Healing Actually Looks Like When Its Messy Hard and Real Tiffany Jenkins on Building a Good Life After Addiction

    This episode of Quick Before You is literally years in the making. Receipts and all, this is a wild ride you're not going to want to skip. In this deeply honest conversation on Quick Before You Forget, I sit down with New York Times bestselling author Tiffany Jenkins to talk about what healing actually looks like when it’s messy, nonlinear, and far from perfect. We talk honestly and openly about addiction, motherhood, mental health, postpartum depression, and the reality of starting over after rock bottom. This isn’t a polished success story. It’s the truth. And if you’ve been feeling burned out, lost, or like you’re failing at healing, same. So take it from us: this one is going to meet you exactly where you are. Because life after addiction, trauma, or burnout is possible. And more importantly, you don’t have to do it alone. ************ If you’ve been following along for a while you already know this wasn’t random. This was the yellow brick road. Leading us here to this conversation at exactly the right time. So if you’re wondering whether the pieces of your life are adding up to something, they are. Keep walking.

    Money Matters: How to Take Control of Your Money Without Feeling Overwhelmed with Jamie Trull

    Today we’re talking about money. Budgeting. Saving. Investing. Debt. Mindset. But not in the “cut your Starbucks treat and buy a house” kind of way. We’re talking about it in a way that actually feels achievable, empowering, and grounded in real life. Because no matter where you are in your career, your business, or your life, money stress has a way of creeping in and taking over when you don’t have a system and when you’re avoiding it altogether. In this episode of Quick Before You Forget, I sit down with financial literacy coach, CPA, and author Jamie Troll to talk about what’s really going on beneath the surface when it comes to money. We get into: why so many smart, capable people feel behind how avoidance keeps us stuck longer than we realize  the simple shift of giving every dollar a job and how money can actually become a tool for good, not something to fear  This conversation isn’t just about finances. It’s about taking your power back. It’s about getting honest. It’s about building a life that actually feels like yours.

Are you rebuilding your life and not sure where to start?  Wondering how to find yourself again after burnout, loss, or a major life change? Trying to move forward without a clear plan and feeling like “fine” just isn’t enough anymore? "Quick Before You Forget" is a self-improvement and personal development podcast for people rebuilding their lives in real time. Each episode offers a grounded place to land while you’re navigating life transitions, identity shifts, and emotional overwhelm. Through honest reflection and practical insight, this podcast helps you steady yourself, build emotional resilience, and take the next true step forward without pressure to have everything figured out. This show explores how to build an unreal life from the ground up using three deeply human tools: music to help you feel, remember, and process emotion, mindset to help you reframe, choose again, and reclaim agency, and movement to help you regulate your nervous system, release stuck energy, and keep going. Rather than quick fixes or hustle culture, "Quick Before You Forget" captures growth as it’s actually happening in real time, before the moment fades. These are lived practices, not theories. Reflections, not prescriptions. If you’re starting over, redefining who you are, or learning how to trust yourself again, this personal growth podcast is here to remind you: you don’t need the whole plan. You just need to take the next honest step. Subscribe and follow to build your unreal life, one song, one choice, and one step at a time.
