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.

The women before us didn't try to control the future. They covered it. And that same authority lives with you. This episode is for the woman who's been thinking ahead, preparing for what's next, and wanting to move into her next season with intention instead of pressure.

This conversation offers a different way to relate to the future, one rooted in faith, lineage, and trust. We talk about how to stop worrying about what's coming and instead learn from how our grandmothers and great-grandmothers prayed ahead, spoke life forward, and covered what was coming without needing certainty.

This episode includes a prayer for new beginnings, a first-person prayer you can return to at the start of a new year, a new season, before a decision, on your birthday, or anytime you want to move forward feeling supported, grounded, and at peace.

Every December, the pressure ramps up to reinvent, rebrand, and become someone new. This episode is for the woman who wants growth and expansion but doesn't feel called to scrap her life or identity just because the calendar is changing. The one who's wondering if starting over is really the answer, or if there's another way to move forward.

This Sunday Coffee Chat explores why your next level doesn't require a rebrand. It requires devotion. Devotion to the practices, choices, and ways of being that already support you. We talk about how to grow without starting over, choosing consistency instead of restarting, deepening instead of chasing, and showing up in small ways that actually compound over time.

The takeaway is grounding and freeing: becoming doesn't have to be dramatic to be real. You're allowed to grow by staying with what works and letting it evolve with you into the new year.

When you’re in a season of change, it’s not always more advice you need. It’s perspective that helps you feel less alone in what you’re thinking, questioning, and becoming. This episode is for the woman who can feel herself evolving and wants support that feels steady, thoughtful, and grounded, not overwhelming or trendy.

In this short bonus episode, I share a curated list of books that have supported me through different seasons of becoming. These are books I’ve returned to over the years for identity work, self-trust, emotional clarity, overthinking, mindset shifts, finances, and coming home to myself. The takeaway is practical and reassuring: you don’t need endless content or another rabbit hole. You just need the right voices at the right time to help you stay connected to who you’re becoming and keep moving forward with intention.

Grief doesn’t always show up as sadness. Sometimes it looks like fatigue, disconnection, irritability, or the sense that you’re moving through life more slowly than usual. This episode is for the woman who’s carrying grief of any kind and wants permission to feel it without rushing herself to be “okay.”

This Sunday Coffee Chat is an honest conversation about holding space for grief without trying to fix it, explain it, or move past it too quickly. We talk about allowing grief to come in waves, supporting your nervous system during emotionally heavy seasons, and making room for both peace and sadness at the same time. The takeaway is gentle but grounding: you don’t have to perform strength through grief. Letting yourself feel is part of how healing actually happens.
