We’ll talk about what actually matters at this stage of business, what doesn’t, and how to stop chasing what’s working for everyone else. The goal isn’t more ideas. It’s better decisions.

    55. At What Point Should I Stop Doing My Own Marketing?

    There’s a question I hear quietly, usually with a little guilt attached to it: At what point should I stop doing my own marketing? In this episode, I talk honestly about that moment and how to recognize it for yourself, without pressure or sales tactics. Doing your own marketing isn’t a mistake. In fact, it’s often the smartest move in the early stages of business. Your success didn’t happen by accident. But there comes a point where continuing to manage your own marketing doesn’t mean you’re being resourceful. It means you might be limiting your growth, your energy, and your leadership. I walk through: Why delegating marketing feels so uncomfortable and risky The difference between being capable of something and it being the best use of your time Signs your marketing has become reactive instead of intentional How growth eventually requires you to stop being the executor of everything What real, supportive marketing partnership should actually look like This isn’t about giving up control or chasing a magic solution. It’s about choosing where your energy belongs and allowing marketing to support your business instead of draining it. If you’ve been wondering whether you’re ready to stop carrying this on your own, I hope this episode gives you clarity and peace about what’s next. Want to keep the conversation going?

    54. Why Does Marketing Still Feel So Hard When My Business Is Already Successful?

    If your business is doing well but marketing has started to feel heavy, frustrating, or exhausting, this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, I answer a question I hear all the time from smart, capable women who’ve already built successful businesses: Why does marketing still feel so hard when I’m doing so many things right? The answer isn’t that you’re behind, unmotivated, or missing some secret. Often, marketing feels hardest after success—when you’ve reached the edge of what you can carry and manage on your own. In this episode, I unpack: Why marketing difficulty at this stage is a growth problem, not a failure How doing “all the right things” can still feel draining when they’re disconnected Why more content, more platforms, and more effort often make things worse A simpler way to think about marketing as a connected whole—not scattered pieces How clarity and connection can reduce the mental load marketing creates If you’ve been feeling like marketing takes more energy than it should—or that you’re constantly starting from scratch—this episode offers reassurance, perspective, and permission to stop adding more and start connecting what you already have. Relationship Marketing Mastery Summit (Free Event) This episode pairs perfectly with the Relationship Marketing Mastery Summit, a free event happening this week. This summit is designed for Christian coaches who want to grow their businesses through trust, connection, and relationships - without hustle or hype.

    53. The Unpopular Business Decisions I’m Making in 2026

    Last fall, I took a step back from creating content, not because I was quitting, but because I needed clarity. Marketing was starting to feel loud, overwhelming, and disconnected from why I built my business in the first place. So instead of pushing through, I got quiet and asked a different question: What actually matters... for me, my business, and the people I serve? In this episode, I’m sharing five unconventional decisions I’m making in 2026 that are shaping a slower, simpler, more human way of doing business, including: Why I’m intentionally doing less - and caring less - about the things that drain my energy Choosing real connection over becoming a content machine Using my website, social media, and podcast for credibility, not pressure Why I’m skipping traditional goal-setting and focusing on monthly priorities instead How simplicity can be more powerful (and freeing) than complex systems This isn’t about trends or formulas. It’s about building a business that actually supports your life, and gives you room to adapt, breathe, and grow in a way that feels aligned. If you’ve been feeling worn down by “more, more, more” marketing advice, I hope this episode gives you permission to choose a different path. If this episode resonated with you, I’d love to stay connected.

    52. Want More Leads? Try Collaboration… Not Another Reel

    Traditional marketing is getting louder, more crowded, and—let’s be honest—a whole lot less effective. So what do you do when social posts, webinars, and email blasts aren’t pulling in the leads they used to? You collaborate. But not in the vague, buzzword-y way everyone tosses around. In this conversation, Ashley sits down with collaboration strategist and heart-centered connector, Katy Suik, to break down what collaboration truly is and how entrepreneurs can use it to build trust, deepen relationships, and grow their businesses in 2026 and beyond. You’ll hear: • Why collaboration is outperforming conventional marketing right now • The real definition of collaboration (hint: it’s not just summits and bundles) • How to choose the right partners and avoid the biggest collaboration pitfalls • Why values, integrity, and connection matter more than audience size • Practical ways to start collaborating—even if you’re an introvert • How to avoid giving away “too much” while still deeply serving • What’s actually working in 2025/2026 when it comes to lead generation If you're craving a more human, more effective, and way more sustainable way to grow your business, this episode will feel like a breath of fresh air.
