I was living in a drug house in Arizona. My life was in shambles. My dad dropped everything and tried to save my life time after time, but I couldn't shake the chains of addiction.
I was living in hell. I used drugs to live and lived to use drugs.
Finally, I hit my rock bottom and called my dad one final time.
He drove to Mesa, AZ, from Southern Utah and knocked on the door of the drug house and pulled me out. We sat in a Waffle House parking lot and he asked me, "Ashly if I take you to rehab are you going to stay, or will you run away?"
In that moment I knew I didn't have the physical or mental capacity to continue on with my life the way I had been living.
I put my seatbelt on and said let's go.
The Pink Bible
I went to the Salvation Army Rehabilitation Center in Fresno, CA.
It was here that I was reintroduced to Christ.
The pastor brought me into his office and said "choose a bible to use while you are here." I chose a random pink bible on his shelf and opened it up.
Inside was a Book of Mormon bookmark.
In that moment I knew the Lord was aware of me.
A family friend emailed me and told me that if I read the Book of Mormon every day, he promised I would never go back to my old ways.
I took that challenge.
I've read the Book of Mormon every day since, and it's been 12.5 years since I last used drugs.
Transformed by His Love
My life has been transformed because of the Savior's atoning sacrifice.
My heart has been softened.
What I've experienced is nothing short of a miracle.
And I have committed to sharing my testimony of Jesus Christ.
Why Memor
Through my journey, I've learned that we need physical anchors for our spiritual commitments.
That pink bible. The bookmark that appeared exactly when I needed it. The daily practice of reading scripture. These tangible things kept me tethered to Christ when everything in me wanted to drift away.
My goal with Memor is to help as many people as I can have a physical reminder of His presence and peace.
Just as that bookmark reminded me that God knew exactly where I was in my darkest moment, I want every piece of Memor jewelry to whisper to someone: You are seen. You are loved. He is with you.
This isn't just jewelry to me. It's a lifeline. It's a declaration. It's a way to carry His love with you always.
Because I know what it's like to be lost. And I know what it's like to be found.
Christ lives.
He loves you.
He's here with us. 🤍

From Addiction to Mission
Today, I'm a mother of three, a wife, and the host of the Come Back Podcast, where I share stories of people who have returned to faith after walking away. I co-founded a software company in the addiction recovery space because I believe in the power of coming back.
Memor is the physical expression of everything I've learned: that small, daily reminders can anchor us to eternal truths.
Every piece we create is designed with intention:
To remind you that you're never too far gone
To anchor you when life feels overwhelming
To declare that you're proud of your faith
To start conversations that could change someone's life
Whether you're in your own Waffle House parking lot moment, or you're years into your journey of faith, these pieces are designed to meet you where you are and remind you Whose you are.
I love the symbolism of the Come Back Podcast logo. The good news is that no one is too far gone or too late to come back to Christ. We all belong with Him. I love that there is a necklace of it now!! It’s gorgeous
The Adalin chain is so pretty. It’s very dimensional and catches the light really nicely. I love it stacked with any necklace and love the different lengths I can adjust it to!
I have been looking for a cross necklace that was meaningful. When I saw this I knew it was exactly what I was looking for. I love the empty tomb and the cross together. It has been such a beautiful reminder of the Savior's atonement that I can see and be reminded of continuously. It is so delicate and beautiful. I have also enjoyed the disciple bracelet and the Be Still ring. I wear all three continuously.
I gave this to my teen daughter who is struggling with finding herself, as many teens do. She loved the heart-shaped chain links, the card message, and the beautiful butterfly. We all need attention now and then and this was perfect. Thank you for providing a beautiful piece of jewelry.
I love this necklace. I've been wanting a necklace with a meaning for a while now. This one was so beautiful. My teenage daughter helped me pick the best one and so I got her a matching one and we both love them. The chain is high quality, but very delicate in style. The cross is the perfect size to not be hidden or too overbearing.
I love my beautiful disciple bracelet! The "disciple" is subtle enough that someone has to be really close to notice it. I actually think that's great because I'm wearing it as my own personal reminder to strive to be a better disciple of Jesus Christ. I glance at it throughout my day and it truly does help me remember to follow my Savior's example. Thank you for making these beautiful physical reminders of Christ!
I love this necklace. I wear it almost daily and every time I look in the mirror it’s a reminder to be a good disciple. I love the color too, such a pretty gold!
I love this bracelet! I would give it 5 stars but just be aware the color is more of a brassy gold, it doesn’t match any of my other gold chains/bracelets. I have a slender wrist and it fits perfectly!
UPDATE: I received the new lighter gold bracelet, and I love the color as well so I would now give it 5 stars!

Hey Tilese! We’ve actually recently updated our bracelets to be 14k gold instead of 18k plated so they are a softer gold color now, with a daintier look. We’d be happy to exchange yours if you want!
My teenage daughter has been wanting a cross necklace for a long time. I just never found the right one until Memor. It’s delicate and small and feminine and she loves it. Grateful she can have a constant reminder of her Savior and His love for her.
I am incredibly thankful for the kindness and generosity of this company. This necklace with the Savior on one side and my brother’s names engraved on the other side is so beautiful. For those who may not have read my other comments on my bracelet purchases, I have 2 brothers that committed suicide within 6 months of each other. I love my other jewelry from this company and I absolutely love this necklace which helps me keep my Savior and my brothers close to my heart every day. Thank you so very much!
I shared my experience with 2 of my brothers committing suicide on my comments for the cross bracelet that I purchased along with this one. I truly appreciate this jewelry reminding me of the love Christ has for each of us. Life has been hard and so many tears have been shed. Knowing that Jesus knows our pain and suffering brings much peace. The story that comes with the jewelry about the creator of the company and her addiction really touched my heart because my youngest brother suffered for years with drug addiction. He was in prison when our mom died from a life altering disease. He has now been clean for several years and I am ever so thankful that God brought him back to us. Thank you Ashly for sharing your story with us. That really touched my heart.
I love this bracelet. It’s so petite and such a beautiful reminder of our loving Savior. I have 5 younger brothers. The youngest is now almost 40. Two of my brothers recently have committed suicide, one was 7 months ago and the other was just a month ago. The middle 2 brothers are the ones that have left us and it has been devastating. My heart can’t stand it. A friend told me about this jewelry and then I saw it on Instagram and I had to have it, hoping that in some way, it will bring me some peace. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for sharing such personal events. I am so sorry for your loss 💔 can you please send us your order number? We want to send you a gift
I love this beautiful but subtle cross necklace so much. The quality is amazing, and I never take it off! He is the Living Light! Thank you so much for such a precious reminder of Him!
I love my necklace!!! It’s a beautiful piece that I love to put on. I feel peace and joy as I wear and look at this meaningful piece. I love it so much! I had no idea how much it would mean to me.
I love my new necklace! I’ve been looking for a long time for the perfect one that represented the death and resurrection of Christ and when I saw this one, I fell in love. It’s is beautiful.
I lost my brother to an overdose 6 months ago and have struggled to come to terms with it. When finding this beautiful piece and the story behind how the company got started it was an absolute no brainer for me that I would be supporting her. The cross on my wrist reminds me daily that my brother may not be with my physically but I know he is in the hands of our savior. The devil won by taking my brother from us by addiction but my god is powerful and because my brother was a believer I get to see him again. I pray that if you are struggling that you buy this bracelet and remember God sent his son to the cross to pay for our sins. God is within you, you are not alone.
I’ve been looking for a dainty cross necklace and this one is just that! I love it so much! The chain is beautiful and it sits perfectly on my neck. It’s very comfortable. I’m very pleased with the purchase
It’s a pretty necklace, though it is darker in color than what appears in the pictures. I was a little disappointed as I prefer the lighter colored sea glass. Overall, though, it’s a nice necklace.
