Pre. P.S. I’m doing my first-ever live on Substack next week, March 25th @ 9 am PT. I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m entirely too excited to talk about why presence feels so damn impossible right now (and what to do - or be - about it). Join me here. Please? 😄

Hiiii. If you’ve been trying to be more mindful and present lately but it’s not really working, welcome to the club. I would guess that 98% of the humans on the planet right now feel as though they are in survival mode, a.k.a., not present.

I welcome you, fellow not-so-present human, to the imperfect reality in which we still must try to be present.

If you’re new here, I’m Ashley! 👉 Rebel with a Journal and rogue Wellness/Empowerment Coach whose job it is to remind you that you’re not alone, that you’re doing enough, and to GO PRACTICE JOY BECAUSE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.

Yes, I am screaming.

Because if we don’t have joy, what do we have?

And presence, an accessible practice available to us in every moment, is a science-backed method that moves us closer to joy - or joy closer to us.

Take a listen 🎧 to a few of my thoughts so far this month about presence, embodiment, and the wisdom we all need to tap into right now.

Of course, please do let us know your thoughts below 😘
