Before You Were Everything: Reflections on Finding Love, Legacy, and Becoming in a Life Rewritten

Before You Were Everything isn't a manual. It isn't a memoir. It's a mirror.

Through raw, hilarious, and soul-stretching stories, Mya Fort-Marshall invites you into the in-between--the messy, sacred, stretch-marked places where real transformation lives.

From childhood nicknames and her grandmother's butter rolls to breast cancer, motherhood, heartbreak, and rebirth, this book reads like a late-night phone call with the friend who always keeps it real. The one who'll let you cry, laugh, spiral a little--and then remind you who the hell you are.

Blending personal narrative with recipes, playlists, and breadcrumbs of wisdom, Before You Were Everything is both deeply personal and widely relatable. It is a love letter to resilience, a protest against perfection, and an invitation to come home to yourself.
