2025/10/14

Some people leave behind legacies — John Candy left behind warmth.In this episode of Better Moody: The Way Forward, Moody reflects on the rare kind of goodness that lingers long after someone’s gone — the kind that can still make a whole generation smile through a screen.Through laughter and a few tears, we revisit the spirit of John Candy — his timing, his tenderness, and how his quiet brilliance reminds us that kindness never really dies. It just changes form.The Way Forward is hosted by Better

S3E9: Niagara, at the Foot of the Falls

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/09/30

At the bottom of Niagara Falls, the roar is deafening, the mist relentless, and the ground itself trembles. Tourists huddle together in blue ponchos, each carrying their own story, each future branching in countless directions. But within the chaos, the lens narrows on a single figure — steady, small, and enduring in the spray. This episode explores awe, change, and what it means to stand inside power you can’t control.The Way Forward is hosted by Better Moody — new episodes every week exploring

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/09/25

In this episode of The Way Forward, Better Moody takes on full comedic style storytelling as she reveals the real superpower: saying no.From toddlers who shout it with their chest, to teenagers who test it with wild requests, to the Army where “no” and where that could lead— this episode explores every variation: nope, nah, nah bruh, hell no, and even the Exploding Kittens NOPE card.But here’s the twist: every no is also a yes. A yes to sanity, to peace, to freedom from potluck potato salad at 2

Bonus Episode: Base Housing Roadside Treasures

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/09/24

This morning, on the way to drop my kid off at school, I couldn’t help but notice the “trash day treasures” sitting out in base housing. You know how it goes—sometimes the best finds are just waiting on the curb. So I pulled over, grabbed a few toys, and it turned into one of those little moments worth sharing.In this short bonus episode, I talk about roadside finds, tell a couple of funny side stories (including Alabama officers who accidentally got a contact high), and just check in with

2025/09/23

Better Moody shares a quiet but unforgettable moment during military training—an early-morning drive through the forest with another soldier that turned into something deeper than either expected. As the sun rose, what began as silence in a government vehicle became a raw conversation about pain, trust, and the surprising freedom that comes when someone feels safe enough to cry.This isn’t about fixing problems or having all the answers—it’s about presence. It’s about listening without judgment,

Bonus Episode: BTS with Cohost Cam Cam

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/09/18

This is a highly scripted BTS take on what we strive for. Cohost Cam Cam spent many hours memorizing his lines in the womb. Cam poured over his notes preparing, testing and honing his Meisner Technique. I think he killed it. Giggles galore and I was hard-pressed to keep this one in the cellar. Stone cold Webby winning on the nose performance. No?Yes...baby can say no. (there is no script btw 😉)Enjoy! I did.BTW - I'm gonna file a complaint about this guys hours - he comes and goes as he pleases

Ever heard of a sommelier? Fancy wine, swirls, and “notes of oak.” Cute. In this episode I’m breaking down the finer art of parenting prestige: How to Be Le Shit-e-a. From 2 a.m. blowouts to diaper reviews worthy of a Michelin star, this episode is a crash course in the skills no one documents for but every parent earns.If you’ve ever held your nose, questioned your life choices, and still powered through with wipes in hand—congrats, you might already be Le Shit-e-a.This one’s for the parents in the

2025/09/16

In a life-or-death moment, every second matters. In this episode of Better Moody: The Way Forward, I talk about real situations where seconds matter. I open up about the time I froze under fire — the second that could have cost me everything — and what it taught me about courage, survival, and taking action when the clock is against you. • The tragic story of Charlie Kirk, a political activist who was recently assassinated and Iryna Zarutska, a young Ukrainian woman who lost her life on Charlotte’s

S3E3: Kiss It Better (Adult Version)

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/09/09

First of all... nothing weird or kinky. Forget scraped knees and fairy-tale castles. Or remember them - thats fine too. But this is the grown-up version of "Kiss it Better," a children's book by Smriti Prasadam-Halls. It a little riffing and some comfort for the weary traveler. Sometimes the best magic spell isn't a happily ever after, but simply 'kiss it better. If you are on your way to work listening to this - my bad. But I bet you aren't. Sweet dreams!

Growing up in poverty leaves marks that never quite fade. In this raw and unfiltered episode of Better Moody: The Way Forward, I share a story from my childhood—living in a condemned house crawling with roaches (yes, even albino ones with red eyes). From pulling my hair back in fear of something crawling on me to smacking myself mid-math test, this memory shaped how I see cleanliness, survival, and resilience today.Tune in for a mix of humor, honesty, and reflection as I unpack how small childhood

S2E12: The Joy of Gimbap

Better Moody: The Way Forward ·

2025/08/28

Long before TikTok trends and lunchbox hacks, there was gimbap—a humble Korean seaweed roll that carries more lore than you might think. Born as a traveler’s food, wrapped tight to keep life moving, gimbap has always been about more than what’s inside the rice and seaweed. It’s a symbol of sharing, of journeys, of joy in simple abundance. In this episode, I unwrap the layers—how gimbap became part history, part culture, part everyday comfort, and why I think it deserves its own mythology. By the

Not everybody’s got a Bugatti parked out front—but you don’t need one to feel rich. In this episode, I roll through what wealth really looks like: the laughs that hit like champagne bubbles, the peace that feels like leather seats, the small wins that shine harder than chrome.
