We’re taking an intentional pause, and here’s why you should, too.

This episode dives into why setting boundaries—especially as an entrepreneur or high-achiever—is essential for personal growth, family time, and actually living life instead of just working through it. We talk about the mindset shift required to step away without guilt, the lie we tell ourselves about being too important to take a break, and how unplugging can actually fuel creativity, success, and stronger relationships.

We also get into:

Why so many people think everything will fall apart if they step away from work (and why that’s BS)

The difference between intentional rest vs. just being lazy

How our upcoming work-free spring break is a test run for a bigger vision

The unexpected way this all connects to personal growth, leadership, and even faith

If you’ve ever felt like you should take a break but don’t know how to actually do it—this one’s for you.

What starts as a Would You Rather about food vs. exes quickly turns into a deep dive on faith, control, and why feeling stuck in life might have more to do with what (or who) you’re turning to first. (Because, let’s be real—that’s what we do here.)

Ashley gets brutally honest about her recent struggles with self-doubt, where she’s felt distance in her faith, and the uncomfortable realization that maybe—just maybe—she hasn’t actually been letting God lead.

We talk about the danger of constantly consuming instead of thinking for yourself, why our need to control everything might be holding us back, and what happens when we actually surrender and play the background. Plus, Ashley connects the dots between fitness and faith in a way that just might change how you see both.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying the weight of it all alone, or if you just love a good mix of banter and deep convos, this one’s for you.

What starts as a conversation about grilled cheese quickly turns into a deep dive on personal growth, discipline, and why so many people sabotage their own progress. (Because, let’s be real—this is what we do here.)

We talk about the difference between taking the scenic route vs. the direct flight when it comes to weight loss and self-improvement, why external validation and trendy health hacks won’t save you, and how mastering the process—not just chasing results—is the real key to success. Plus, Ashley calls out one of the most frustrating phrases she hears as a coach: “I eat pretty decent.” (Spoiler: That means nothing.)

About UsConnect With Us

In this episode, we dive into the sneaky ways we often outsource our self-confidence to external things—whether it's our jobs, relationships, routines, or even anxiety-soothing hoodies. Ashley gets real about her struggles with anxiety, why quick fixes don’t last, and the importance of building an internal toolkit to handle life’s ups and downs.

We explore why relying too heavily on external validation or routines can leave you feeling lost when things inevitably change. Plus, we unpack what it means to truly know yourself outside of roles like “mom” or “career” and how defining your values can be your greatest strength.

If you’ve ever felt overly dependent on things (or people) outside yourself for confidence or comfort, this episode is your wake-up call to reclaim your power and play the game of life with resilience, flexibility, and true self-trust.
