If You’re Not First, You’re Last (And No, This Isn’t About NASCAR)

We’ve all heard the line “If you’re not first, you’re last.” It was meant to be a joke in a ridiculous movie, but what if there’s real truth buried inside the absurdity?

In this solo episode, Cinnamon unpacks what it means to quietly slide into last place in your own life—not because someone pushed you there, but because of a dozen tiny, well-intentioned “yeses.” From over-functioning to people-pleasing, Cinnamon explores how we slowly erase ourselves in the name of being helpful, capable, and dependable… until burnout becomes the background music.

This isn’t a call to be selfish. It’s a call to be strategic.
Because putting yourself first doesn’t mean you matter more—it means you remember that you matter too.

🎧 Listen in for a short, honest wake-up call that might just help you reclaim your time, your peace, and your place at the top of your own priority list.

Ready to stop living in last place? 🎙️ Tune into this special Solocast of After the Tones Drop, Episode #114, now.
