This is a space where in community, we find belonging.

A place where you are deeply seen and heard.

Ultimately connecting through the lens of intention.


Creating intentional, incremental daily actions that enable us to root into who we are, expand deeper into our purpose, align with our truths and live out our wildest dreams.


I’m your host, Ashley Strong Smith. In this lifetime, I’ve been honored to continuously live a life that is far beyond my dreams. Taking incremental intentional action every single day, that has compounded to major change and transformation.


Each week, I share tangible tools, tips and resources to invite into your own life. Alongside meeting + getting a peek inside some of the most inspiring women intentionally living their truths!


I truly believe that we are capable of bringing any dream into reality, of blooming the most vibrant lotus flower from trudging through thick mud, of honoring our deepest truth and being in full expression in this human experience as after all, we are limitless!

    Tune into this week's episode of "Living an Intentional Life Podcast" as I deep dive into "How to keep moving forward when nothing seems to be supportive and helping!"

    This episode is broken down into 3 parts :

    1. Ways to do the work :
      1. Within
      2. Inviting in your safe people + community
      3. Working with a coach or a professional
      4. Going on a retreat
    2. Tools that support it :
      1. Reflecting with oneself
      2. Self care support with self
      3. Self care support with professionals :
      4. Leaning on knowledge
      5. Writing
      6. Creativity
      7. Therapy
      8. Spiritual support
    3. How to keep moving forward when nothing seems to be supportive and helping
      1. Hold yourself in grace and gratitude
      2. Small intentional daily action compounds to major change, transformation and the realization of your dreams - meaning take one small step at a time
      3. Just like the story I shared at the beginning, pay attention to the universe and allow her to guide you!
      4. Be honest with yourself and others, it takes letting your walls and barriers down to really support building raw, authentic, genuine connection that we then see ourselves from that lens.
      5. Be okay with doing nothing as sometimes inaction is the greatest form of action we can do.
      6. Keep trying on what your heart and soul is calling for - something that you tried on last month during a certain time on your period will land SO differently that this month just like with a river, you never step in the same spot twice as its’ always flowing and moving

  • Intentionality in cultivating being inspired and inspiring | Episode 160
    Sep 16 2025

    Send us a text

    Tune into this week's episode of "Living an Intentioanl Life Podcast" as I deep dive into "Intentionality in cultivating being inspired and inspiring!"

    This conversation is broken down into two parts - being inspired and inspiring :

    Let’s start with being inspired

    1. Create clarity on what inspiration actually means to you
      1. For me, inspiration is when I am positively influenced by something around me - nature, others, the book I’m reading, a nudge within and then there is an action to bring that very inspiration into from.
    2. Do you know what inspires you?
      1. Create a list of all the things that inspire you.
      2. This can also be found in creating a heart-centered foundation
        1. If you haven't already, you can tune into the free workshop (episode 157) and download the workbook in the show notes or by heading to my website
    3. How does being inspired work?
      1. Clarity around what actually inspires you
      2. Being mindful about creating space and inviting that very thing into your life (it’s kinda like planting a seed, you start to build a relationship with the process).
      3. Actually add that very thing into your schedule - like really, put it as a date or event in your calendar just as you would your work time, doctors appointments and the kids activities.
      4. Keep re-evaluating, how does creating more time and space for this thing make you feel? Adding in more time to heighten the inspiration!
    4. Tips for cultivating inspiration
      1. Treat it all like an experiment
        1. Real time action provides real time feedback
        2. Stay connected + committed as results won’t happen over night or with one interaction with the very thing that keeps you inspired
      2. Allow inspiration to bread more inspiration
        1. Follow the breadcrumbs, do go down the rabbit hole
      3. Lean on those who have come before you
        1. Books, podcast, chefs, experts, anything that is in support of your inspiration
      4. Be present and move slowly while with your inspiration
        1. Don't rush it
        2. Create space for nothing at all
      5. Document the process
        1. Written, spoken, photos
        2. That alone with teach you and keep the inspiration heightened
      6. Share it with people you love

    Inspire :

    • I truly believe we oscillate between learning and teaching, being inspired and inspiring
    • How can you be someone who inspires others?
      • Be honest with yourself
      • Share your heart and truth with those who are safe to you and you love
      • Cultivate the confidence to share
        • You matter
        • Your voice matters

  • Permission to be who you KNOW you are with Bianca Whaley, “Of Earth and Moon” | Episode 159
    Sep 9 2025

    Send us a text

    Tune into this week's episode of "Living an Intentional Life Podcast" as I had the most beautiful honor of sitting in person with my dear friend and guest, Bianca Whaley as she shares all about "permission to be who you KNOW you are!"

    About Bianca :

    As a reiki master, certified astrologer and yoga guide, I’ve spent the last 10 years embodying and integrating tools that help people feel more in touch with their inner selves.

    I ground all of my offerings and practices in the divine feminine, meaning I use my intuition as a guide and create space for people to just be and receive. I find this important in a world that tells us we need to constantly be doing. We receive the most when we are still and my intention is to help people slow down.


    I started teaching yoga in 2014, I’ve been attuned to reiki since 2016, and obtained my master reiki certification in 2022. I got certified in astrology from Rising Woman in the Summer of 2024. And, in the midst of all of that, I received my most sacred role of all, being a mother to my two beautiful boys, Zephyr and Ramses. I’ve had my husband by my side since I was 16 years old and he is truly the reason I am able to do the work that I do. I love you Tristen.

    I am devoted to helping people see their magic and embody their wisdom. I know all the answers we seek are within; our body holds endless insights. I create the space for people to remember this.
