148. The Final Episode In My Beyond Profit Era
Welcome to the final episode... at least for a little while. Tune in to hear the journey that led me to this choice, including the challenges of balancing work and life, and the realization that sometimes, even the things we love need to take a backseat. 🎙️🚗 Exciting — I’ve recently reclaimed full control over my content and emails which has felt really good. I've been opening up space and pulling back on some things to pour my energy into a mastermind I’ve been secretly crafting BTS.
As I prepare for a personal milestone — my 37th birthday — I reflect on the lessons learned from my sabbatical and how I’ve shifted away from the "revenue rat race." In this episode I chat about the dangers of scaling without sustainability and why doing more to make more isn’t always the answer. Instead, we ought to be simplifying and focusing on what truly matters. Those beyond profit moments. 🎂🌳🌊🌅🥾👨👩👧👦💋🍦

• How reclaiming control over my content has allowed me to focus on what truly matters

MORE ABOUT ASH
I am the definition of duality — I swear like a sailor and break rules like it’s my job, but I also hold incredible space for my clients and work my ass off to help them achieve the success they’re after. But I'm also here for the non-preneur woman, too. My background in counseling gives me a unique perspective on what it means to show up, serve, & create connection for those who feel like they've never belonged before.
