Welcome to “From Where I’m Standing”, the monthly episode where I pull back the curtain on my actual life, my business in real time, and the stuff I’m learning the hard way so you don’t have to.

TOPICS WE EXPLORE:

• Why I extended my social media return from one week to three
• The Digital Detox Diaries series and what I shared during my return to socials
• Regulation isn’t the zen aesthetic you’ve been sold
• A 5am panic spiral, three kids’ worth of unexpected expenses, and the three-step self-coaching loop that got me out in under three minutes
• Planning drives paralysis
• Action is what breeds confidence
• Cycle syncing as a business and life blueprint + a piece I wrote in my luteal phase
• Spring break, sports season, and building a village when family isn’t around
• Offer suite updates: business therapy, The Regulated Woman rebrand, and the Clarity Intensive becoming The Quick Fix

THE POINT:

Planning drives paralysis, six weeks of action will tell you more than six months of strategizing ever could.

MENTIONED:

• Episode 186: The AI Identity Crisis No One Is Talking About
• Fit with Coco: Ash’s go-to workout
• The Sanctuary Holistic Wellness (@thesanctuaryholisticwellness): 10-day parasite and heavy metal detox
• The Quick Fix (formerly the Clarity Intensive): 90 minutes one-on-one + 2 weeks Voxer

MORE ABOUT ASH
I am the definition of duality — I swear like a sailor and break rules like it’s my job, but I also hold incredible space for my clients and work my ass off to help them achieve the success they’re after. But I'm also here for the non-preneur woman, too. My background in counseling gives me a unique perspective on what it means to show up, serve, & create connection for those who feel like they've never belonged before.
