#10 Innate Wisdom and Channeling Intuition with Ashley Frye Healing and Horsemanship

    • Alternative Health

An Equine Therapy Facilitator, Earth Intuitive, Seer, and Space Holder, Ashley Frye speaks to the importance of “letting the wisdom of our bodies supersede any doubts we have about a particular path in life.”
I was nothing short of blown away during my conversation with Ashley. She shared about the many paths she’s walked - as a high school educator for eleven years, a birth doula, a space holder for people to heal using photography and videography as her medium, and more. I’m so grateful for Ashley’s authenticity and courage as we delved into the shadows of what it’s like to have an incredible innate gift to channel, intuit, and work with Earth Medicine, only to fear being ostracized by the dominant culture.
I feel so inspired by Ashley’s courage in sharing about her pursuit to not live small, and lead with an open heart, and I know you will too.
In this interview we talk about:
- Ashley’s intense initiation through grief during the hardest time of her life and her decision that she was not going to live with a closed heart
- The importance of pause, and taking a moment to let things happen even if they are a struggle, instead of stepping in with the ‘fix-it’ mentality
- How horses have so much grace for us and continue to show up in spite of ourselves
- The way that horses sync their heart rate to humans with elevated respiration and innately work to regulate their nervous system
- Ashley’s work as a birth doula and how she is called to help people find the “yes, you can do it” when fear and doubt closes in
- Not playing it small and showing up authentically even with the fear of being ostracized for being different
- The gift of channeling or “seeing” which Ashely has had her whole life and how she is working to overcome cultural norms and share her gift with the world openly
- How when horses meet us where we are it gives us grace to meet ourselves where we are too
- And unlearning the need to have control, and how Ashley believes that horses are “exceptionally good medicine in teaching us to show up and be with what is
