Your nervous system may be blocking the very overflow you are working so hard to create. If you keep finding yourself stuck in cycles of pushing, achieving, and then crashing, or watching things fall apart right when they start working, this episode explains why. If episode 051 helped you recognize that you are living in survival mode, this conversation shows you what your body is doing and why struggle keeps feeling familiar even when you want ease.

This episode is for the ambitious woman who works hard, invests in her healing, and knows she is capable of more but cannot seem to hold onto success, money, rest, or stability. We break down the neuroscience of overflow, how your window of tolerance limits what you can receive, and why your nervous system defaults to struggle when safety is missing. You will learn how to expand your capacity so ease, success, and good things no longer feel threatening and can finally stay.

Think survival mode only happens when you're broke or in crisis? Think again. This episode is for the woman who looks successful on paper but feels exhausted underneath...the one who can't rest without guilt, sabotages good things when they get too good, and makes every decision from fear instead of desire. If you're constantly in "responsible mode" but secretly exhausted from always being on high alert, this one's for you.

In this Sunday Coffee Chat, I'm breaking down 5 signs you might be in survival mode without even knowing it. From hypervigilance that looks like responsibility to struggling with vulnerability to making choices that feel safe but don't feel like yours. Plus, I'm sharing why this pattern is so hard to recognize and what you can actually do about it. If you're ready to shift from surviving to truly living, this episode will help you see what's been holding you back and show you the path forward.

If you're journaling everything in one place, you might be keeping yourself stuck without realizing it. In this episode, Ashlee breaks down why she keeps two separate journals - one for becoming work (vision, gratitude, identity) and one for emotional processing (triggers, venting, heavy stuff). She shares the neuroscience behind emotional contamination, negativity bias, and how mixing them creates interference that prevents you from tracking your growth and actually healing.

This episode is for you if you journal regularly but find yourself re-reading old pain, avoiding your journal altogether, or struggling to see how far you've come. Ashlee walks you through exactly how to set up two journals with clear intentions and how the prompts you'll receive when you sign up for "The Practice" fit into your becoming work while honoring the messy, unplanned emotional work that comes up in daily life.
