Summary

Shopify: Start your $1/month trial at Shopify.com/trent Hey Rehabbers. I did something I'm not proud of. And before you worry, nobody got hurt. No relationships broken. No deep life lesson about betrayal or loss. Just me, an airport, a forgotten passport, and one of the most expensive decisions I've ever made. Yes. I said what I said. I'm talking about the time I forgot my passport and ended up having to book a private jet just to make it to where I needed to be. Seven thousand, five hundred dollars. Gone. Because I didn't double check one thing before I left the house. Now look, I know what you're thinking. And yeah, I thought it too. But here's the thing, it happened, I couldn't undo it, and I had to make a decision in the moment. Was it the right one? I'll let you be the judge. But I will say this, it taught me something about how I move, how I prepare, and how even the most avoidable mistakes can sneak up on you when you're moving too fast. This one's lighter than usual, Rehabbers. But it's real, it's funny in hindsight, and honestly, sometimes you just need an episode that reminds you we're all human out here. Even me. Press play. Take a listen. And whatever you do, check your passport before you leave the house. Let's get it, It All Starts With You!
