I'm really bad about this too. I actually got to the point where I googled 'most asked Personality questions in interviews' which had like "Describe a time where you showed leadership." etc, and I have a Google Drive document that has a paragraph answer for each, and I reread that a couple of times before going into an interview so I will have a few of these stories prepared.
I still would struggle if you asked too many more details beyond that, though. I had to dig deep into my brain in order to write those paragraphs in the first place.
I do the same with technical questions. Anything I get asked (that I remember afterwards) goes into a document (with paragraph answers) that I review before future interviews. I also try to anticipate some other questions and put them in there as well.
Because the scope of Computer Science is so big I still get questions I didn't prepare for asked of me pretty much every interview, though, and I struggle through those questions.
Despite this, I do have a good memory for work and can keep entire systems in my brain. But in doing so this other crap gets shoved deeper and deeper and are more difficult to retrieve.
