Some key takeaways from the episode:
Just Start—Even if It’s Messy. Begin with a beginner’s mindset and accept your imperfections–this is where the magic happens. Waiting for perfection holds us back. Ashley reminds us that, “Perfection isn’t the goal. Growth happens in the messy, imperfect moments.”
Creativity is Part of Coming Home to Yourself. Ashley reflects on her healing journey, saying, “Reconnecting with my creativity was an important part of finding myself again.” Creativity isn’t just about making things—it’s about rediscovering and honoring who you are.
Humanity in Content Creation Matters. “When you see a badass reel on Instagram, remember: it’s a piece of someone’s heart, their soul, their voice.” Ashley reminds us to honor the effort and vulnerability behind what creators share.
Courage is Showing Up Anyway. “In a world quick to judge, releasing your work into the world takes bravery. “I had to set aside fear and just start,” Ashley explains, showing how courage paves the way for authentic expression.
Design Your Life, Don’t Just Follow Rules. “The most important thing we can have is agency,” Ashley emphasizes. Building a life rooted in your own values and beliefs is what living unapologetically is all about.
