The black hole, the breakup, and becoming unstoppable with Ash Sheppeard

EPISODE SUMMARY:

Warrior Woman—this one is juicy.

I sat down with Ash Sheppeard—coach, leader, former gym owner, and now the creator of Unstoppable—for a wild ride through her dots: the black holes, the breakups, the bold moves that led her to the work she does now. We talk about building a life you actually want to live (not one you're tolerating), the moment everything breaks so you can rebuild, and how your worth, energy, and emotional regulation are at the center of it all.

We go deep on burnout, boundaries, belief systems, feminine power, and why you need to sit in the black hole sometimes—until you’re ready to climb out with support. This one’s for the woman who knows she was made for more, but needs help getting out of the loop.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• You don’t have a willpower problem—you have a disconnection problem. Ash and I unpack why most women are exhausted, resentful, and stuck—because they’ve been living out of alignment with their values for too long.

• The black hole moment is necessary. We talk about hitting rock bottom—injuries, breakups, burnout—and how those moments are often the exact interruption you need to rewire your identity.

• Leadership starts with emotional regulation. Ash breaks down what emotional intelligence actually is and why it’s the foundation of becoming a powerful woman—in relationships, business, and your body.

• You can't do it alone. If you're in the black hole, stop trying to climb out without help. We talk about mentorship, community, and putting yourself in rooms that challenge you and call you forward.

• Unstoppable isn’t just a vibe. It’s a decision. Ash shares how her program is helping women heal, regulate, and finally take radical responsibility for what they want—so they can build a life on their own terms.
