Every Story Leaves a Track

Tracks That Matter explores the songs, stories, and moments that shape who we become.

Every song has a story.

Every story leaves a track.

On Tracks That Matter, author, educator, and storyteller Nicole M. Morrison sits down with everyday people to explore the songs, stories, and moments that shape who we become.

Some tracks remind us where we came from. Some help us survive what we never expected. Others become the soundtrack to love, loss, healing, courage, identity, and transformation.

Each episode begins with a song that matters and unfolds into a deeper conversation about the experiences, relationships, challenges, and victories connected to it.

Through honest storytelling, reflection, and meaningful dialogue, guests share the moments that changed their lives—and the music that helped carry them through.

Whether you’re here for the music, the stories, or the reminder that you’re not alone in your own journey, you’ll discover that the tracks that matter most are rarely just songs.

Hosted by Nicole M. Morrison, author of Growing Up Happy in a Lonely World: A Mixtape Memoir.

This is not just a podcast about music.

It’s about memory.
Identity.
Healing.
Belonging.
Becoming.

The songs that carried us.
The songs that cracked us open.
The songs that helped us survive.
The songs that reminded us who we are.

Each episode explores one meaningful track and the story behind why it matters.

And now, these stories have become part of something even bigger.

A podcast.
A community.
A future book.

Because of podcast music licensing restrictions, commercial podcasts can’t include the featured songs within each episode. On URL Radio, you’ll hear both the conversation and the music that inspired it—allowing you to experience each story the way it was meant to be heard.

Prefer listening on your favorite podcast app? We’ve got you covered. We also created a Tracks That Matter Spotify Playlist so you can listen to the featured songs before, after, or alongside each episode and experience the music that inspired every story (a link to the playlist is at the end of every episode description.)

Wherever you choose to listen, we hope you’ll discover a new story, revisit an old memory, and maybe even find a track that tells part of your own story.
