we all love that feeling when you marie kondo your house...
you’ve spring cleaned your place. not that regular, run-of-the-mill, do this every weekend clean, but you’ve scrubbed the baseboards, moved the fridge and gotten all the weird gunk from underneath. you tossed that dress you haven’t worn in 15 years, into the give away bag and dropped it off at value village.
your home feels lighter, clearer and more peaceful.
it’s peak adulting. no one can tell you anything. time to light a candle, order some postmates
and binge watch the latest season of bridgerton.
imagine your whole life feeling that way?
here’s what i know about you...
@REALLYGREATSITE
and it’s not because you’re selfish.
the truth is...
what’s gotten in the way?
your brain, biology and brainwashing. i’ll explain:
your brain is wired for survival. that is it’s primary target. and back in cavewoman days, you learned that getting the boot from the community of other cave-people would result in getting eaten by a bear, so you had to keep other’s happy.
that was built into your biology.
then, as a child you were taught (see also: brainwashed) that being “good” kept your parents, teachers and authority figures satisfied with you. if they were happy, you were cared for. it taught you to avoid their disapproval because without it your belonging in the tribe was under threatened.
so, you’ve been afraid to take any action that might ruffle other people’s feathers.
you learned to please in order to be loved, validated and accepted.
the good news is...
you’re an adult now and you KNOW: disapproval doesn’t mean dead.
which means you can finally strip off the heavy weights of “should” and “have to.” you can take off the jersey that says “team people pleaser” and finally live a life that is your choice. starting today, you aren’t a victim of an overcrowded schedule with nothing on it for you.
you are the showrunner who sets boundaries and calls the shots.
hi, i’m ashley!
former nose blind, people-pleasing, over giver who walked herself to the check in desk of hotel exhaustion so that i could say yes to any request from work, to church, to personal relationships.
i say “nose blind” because I didn’t even know i was over-functioning.
i thought i was just serving others.
i spent 30ish years being a “dutiful good girl” and believing the lie that God required i run my personal gas gauge to E in service of other people’s wants and needs. this behavior left me scraping the bottom of the barrel on time, energy and focus.
my life looks wildly different now. i say no, a lot and with exactly zero guilt. i change my mind. “because i don’t want to,” is an acceptable explanation. my standards are high and my boundaries are strong.
despite going from f500 director in corporate to entrepreneur, i pace my work and back out of commitments if i feel over-extended which results in:
freedom of time. clarity of mind. an abundance of energy for my own life. and powerful presence to connect with people i love.
i want this for you which is why this program was created.
obligation
the
detox
is one part teaching you new information, one part reprogramming your subconscious mind and one part nervous system regulation so that saying “no,” setting new boundaries and the process of rearranging your life is faster and feels easier.
as of today, there are seven audio trainings for delivery podcast style so that you can
pop in your earbuds and take me on the go with you.
the content begins dropping may 27, 2024.
you’ll leave the digital classroom:
oh and there’s a bonus too --
i think we can agree that sometimes the stickiest part of backing out of commitments and rearranging your schedule so that your well-being is at the center can be... “WTF do I say?”
well, lucky for you i’m a words girlie. so you can leave the heavy lifting up to me.
if, consider, then is a PDF jam packed with exactly what to say when detoxing from obligation. it covers scenarios from work to home to friendship.
