    The Week I Got Hit by a Car + Becoming Light Through the Dark

    Last week, I was hit by a car. In the weeks leading up to co-hosting a retreat, I was quietly battling imposter syndrome — questioning my capacity to hold big space for women stepping into their own expansion. Then life knocked me to the pavement. Literally. What followed was a spiritual reckoning, a breathwork breakthrough, and a message so clear it shook me: you cannot hold light without knowing darkness. In this raw and deeply personal solo episode, I share: The internal battle no one sees before expansionHow adversity refines leadership (not ruins it)The breathwork experience that changed everythingWhy imposter syndrome is often a sign you’re leveling upHow sound healing has expanded my capacity to hold spaceAnd what it means to become a vessel — not from perfection, but from lived experience If you’ve been doubting yourself before your next big step… If you’ve walked through something hard and wondered what it was shaping you for… If you’re ready to lead from depth instead of ego… This episode is for you. You can’t hold light without walking through fire. Press play.

    Becoming a Golden Client Magnet, Debunking "Hot Girl" Marketing + Uncommon Ways to Thrive with Lorena Sanchez

    What does it really take to build a thriving massage and facial practice — without chasing trends, aesthetics, or overnight success? In this episode of Good Skin Circle, Ashley sits down with Lorena Sanchez, a dual licensed massage therapist and aesthetician based in San Francisco, to talk about the long game: embodiment, authenticity, community trust, and confidence built over time. Lorena shares how she grew her practice through local moms’ groups, word-of-mouth, and showing up as a real human — not a polished brand. They talk about starting small, expanding intentionally, healing self-worth through inner work, hypnotherapy and why advanced education changes how you trust your hands. This conversation is for practitioners who feel behind, don’t fit the mold, or are quietly building something meaningful. Slow growth. Real success. Careers that last. 🎧 Press play.

    The Quiet Cost of Ignoring Your Intuition

    Your intuition doesn’t stop speaking when you ignore it. It just whispers… until the cost shows up elsewhere. In this episode, Ashley explores why intuition is the foundation of ethics, boundaries, energy, and burnout, and what really happens when we override our inner knowing for pressure, opportunity, or approval. You’ll hear about:The hidden energetic cost of ignoring intuitive signalsWhy burnout often begins long before you feel “overworked”How your body knows the truth before your mind doesThe subtle ways urgency and validation drown out intuitionSimple, embodied practices to rebuild self-trust If you’ve been explaining away a feeling you can’t quite name, this episode is your invitation to pause, listen, and come back into alignment. Your intuition never lies. But it will get louder if you don’t listen.
