Whether needing an audio workout buddy, a friend in your ear over coffee, or a virtual sister to throw back a glass of wine with, Ashlyn's got your back. Authentically Ashlyn is not your typical female-led personal development podcast. The audio provided here may make you cringe, make you laugh, teach you something special or offend you ever-so-slightly. This may not be the self-help podcast you share with your religious bestie who preaches all things holy, your uptight Grandmother, or your sweet (or not so sweet) mother-in-law: there are plenty of personal development podcasts on the market for that. This is, however, a podcast that sparks conversation amongst friends beyond the monotony talks of marriage and children. This is a podcast that pairs well with an Aperol Spritz… or a 9 PM bedtime. This is a podcast that flames your once-forgotten fire to inspire you to grow, level up, and laugh along the way to becoming your best self. If you’re looking for personal growth with a little punch: this is the show for you.

    E196 -How to “Do It all”: A Cardiologist's Playbook for Reaching your Peak Potential

    Ashlyn welcomes local legend and cardiologist Dr. Sayeh Zielke to the podcast for a powerful, inspiring conversation about purpose, resilience, and what it truly means to live at your peak potential. Together, Ashlyn and Dr. Zielke go beyond medicine and dive into the mindset behind extraordinary impact. They explore how emotional, mental, and social health shape not only our longevity, but our leadership, relationships, and sense of fulfillment. Dr. Zielke introduces her powerful concept of embracing the “Jaguar mentality”—bold, focused, and fearless—while letting go of the passive “Seal mentality” that keeps people small, safe, and stuck. This episode is equal parts grounding and galvanizing. It’s about courage, advocacy, inner strength, and choosing to show up fully—for your community, your calling, and yourself. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to create real change, or how to step into your strongest, most intentional life, this conversation will stay with you long after the final minute.

    E194 – WHAT WORKED? WHAT SUCKED? WHAT’S NEXT?

    It’s time for a no-fluff, end-of-year debrief. In this solo episode, Ashlyn is looking back on 2025 with clear eyes and an honest heart—breaking down what actually worked, what completely sucked, and what she’s taking with her into the next chapter. She reflects on the wins that moved the needle, the missteps that taught hard lessons, and the moments that forced growth (whether she liked it or not). This isn’t a highlight reel—it’s a real recap of a year that stretched her, refined her, and reshaped her priorities. From mindset shifts to business decisions to personal boundaries, Ashlyn shares what she’s keeping, what she’s letting go of, and how she’s setting herself up for what’s next. If you’re craving permission to reflect honestly and move forward intentionally, this episode is your sign.

    E193- Boundary Setting NOT People Pleasing: My Favourite Therapists Advice

    Ashlyn welcomes a very special guest to the podcast—her sister, Noel, a licensed counsellor in Canada—for an honest, grounded conversation about the emotional weight of the holidays. Together, they reflect on their shared history growing up and living together, how those early dynamics still show up today, and why family gatherings can bring up more than just nostalgia. They dive into common holiday triggers, the pressure of traditions, and how “doing it all” often leads straight to mom guilt and burnout. Noel brings her professional lens to the conversation, offering practical insight on setting and maintaining boundaries, while Ashlyn shares the real-life side of navigating expectations, roles, and relationships. This episode is about getting clear on your why, choosing what actually matters, and giving yourself permission to do the holidays differently—without guilt. Thoughtful, relatable, and deeply human, this one feels like a conversation you didn’t know you needed.

    E190 - The Coaching Advice You Need If You're Sick of Starting Over

    If you’re exhausted from starting over every Monday, every month, or every time life gets messy, this episode is your tough-love intervention. Ashlyn is back with a fire-filled solo session, giving you the no-BS advice you need if you’re sick of quitting on yourself. She dives into the real difference between motivation and discipline (hint: motivation is lying to you), and how to finally fight the voice in your head that says, “no, bitch—not today.” Ashlyn breaks down what consistency actually looks like in real life, why success requires being flexible instead of perfect, and how to reroute without spiraling when things don’t go as planned. She also gets real about battling mom guilt, carving out time for yourself without apology, and choosing the version of you that’s waiting on the other side of commitment. This episode is your reminder that you don’t need a fresh start—you need a different strategy. Lace up, queen. It’s time to stop starting over and start showing up.
