Stop waiting for a specific moment, time, or place in your life to feel special. Your party does not have to stop because there is no one there to celebrate. In every case, you will always be the best company you will ever have. So start treating yourself like you are the moment sis. Like you are the special occasion. You will see that the more you start treating yourself like you are the special occasion in your life, the less you will wait for others to do so. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

A lot of us are getting overwhelmed when we try to focus on everything, all at the same time. Then we end up overthinking it, and end up doing nothing at all. But it's simple sis. If you could focus on one thing for the next 6 months to a year, what would life look like for you? The problem is, we're all in a hurry trying to get "there", and we're trying to run towards all the things we want to do instead of just taking one simple step at a time. You will get there sis. But only if you shut out the noise, stop trying to rush everything, and just focus one one thing at a time. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Get 50% off plus free shipping when you try HelloFresh!

This week we're answering more of your questions! Ashley gives some solid advice on how to get revenge on someone who has hurt you, cheating & infidelity, and letting go of trying to control others. She talks not spending so much time caring about what others think, and learning how to listen to your own voice as you create the life you want, and enjoying that life no matter what is happening around you.

Stop stressing boo. You do not have to have all the answers right now. Some parts of your life will make sense, and other parts still need work...and that's okay. Sometimes when we are in a season of searching, and we don't know what to do next we feel stuck, frustrated, and overwhelmed. But you have to take life one day at a time sis. Just keep doing the next best thing, for your job, your careers, your goals and your dreams...and you will see that things always tend to work themselves out. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

Today's episode is hands down our favorite episode to date! In this very special episode, and for the first time ever on the podcast, Ashley is sitting down with her Dad. This podcast is the product of many questions and conversations Ashley has had over the years with her Dad. It was because he pushed her (& continues to push!) to keep finding her answers, and throwing her ideas out into the world, that we are even here today. If you are missing your Dad today, maybe you're at odds, maybe you're in a healing stage with your Dad....whatever stage you're in...today we just wanted to share a little bit, our our podcast Dad with all of you. Ya'll...sit back and enjoy this one, you won't regret it. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Get your podcast merch boo! Visit shopslaygirlslay.com!

Time to check in! Are you on track with your goals this year? Are you burnt out, or maybe need to pivot? Remember, the more you grow and change, the more your dreams will grow and change. This week Ashley takes us through her goal setting (& executing) process, and how to build a life around your goals, and not your goals around your life. Having some control over your life, and not just drifting wherever life takes you. The only person that can make things happen for yourself sis...is you. Keep your hands on the wheel, and keep going in the direction that you want to go in. The dreams don't work, unless you do. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Make everyday payday, with Earnin!

There is always something to be thankful for sis. Even in the things that don't work out, the things that worry you or bother you...there is always something to be grateful for. Because what you think, is what you see. If you keep your mind in a bad place, that is where it will stay. No matter how good life may be going, or if you're in a tough season...challenges will always present themselves. But it's how you choose to look at those challenges, how you choose to talk about those challenges, how you choose to approach them...is what makes all the difference.

Change the energy around sis. Fill your life with the people and the things that make you a big deal. People that don't play with you or about you. There are people in your life that genuinely, authentically, and deeply love you...just for who you are. So why are you so pressed about the people that don't? Why keep making space, for people, for things in your life, that no longer serve you? People that no longer uplift you? Stop giving life to something that should have died out a long time ago sis.

You asked, and she's answering! Ashley answers your questions, and shares her experience with being afraid to take new opportunities, working through fear and anxiety, how to deal with negative family members, and much more. She talks how to let go of things that no longer serve you, taking small steps to create something meaningful, and even shares some great advice she got from a therapist! Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

You have to know how much you're worth, and not be afraid to ask for the things that you want. Other people, jobs, companies, and brands have no problem telling you what they want. Stop being scary, and start telling others what you want too. Reciprocity, is how we're moving sis. Accommodations require accommodation. You cannot continuously pour into everything and everybody, and nothing is pouring into you. It is important to serve others, but you are also not a public water fountain. Sorry...but...it needed to be said. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by BetterHelp!

Why do you do what you do sis? Are you here to educate, to serve, to teach something, to lead by example, to change your life, to change your families life...why do you chase the dream? Or is it for likes, downloads, having a K next to your posts on social media, to be trendy, and popping for everybody else? Being recognized for your gift is complimentary sis, not mandatory. But if you stay focused, and keep going, and stop comparing where you measure up to others....the gift that you have and the purpose that you were given is bigger than any like, view, download, or compliment that you could ever receive.

There will be times in our lives where we have tons of friends, our calendar is full of events, and our lives feel full. There is a reason for that season. But there will also be times where our lives where it's just us. We don't have a lot of friends, we don't relate anymore to the people we used to relate to, and we feel separated. We feel isolated, and there is a reason for that season too. With separation, comes elevation sis. Your growth is not a group project. Sometimes it will take a season of just you, a season of doing it alone, a season of separation to get yourself there. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

Sometimes we will find ourselves in a season of uncertainty. We don't know what's next, we don't know what the outcome will be to a certain situation, we're not sure if our prayers will be answered. We get upset, and frustrated, and even disappointed because things aren't going the way that we planned. But good things take time sis, and God would never bring you this far, to only bring you this far. Sometimes while we're trying to figure it out, it's already been worked out, and we have to learn how to rest in that. To take a step back, and let God do what only He can do.

When you keep a plant in a small pot for too long, you stunt it's growth. Same goes for you sis.

Well well well...if it isn't SEASON 6 gracing us with her presence! Welcome back boo, we missed you!!!! (for real, for real) The last few years have been filled with ups and downs, trials and triumphs, and sis....you did that. But this season is personal. This era is personal. And you can't afford to move how you used to move, think how you used to think, or act how you used to act. It's time to do something different. Whatever you did up until this point, good job....but what else you got? What else are you capable of? What else can you do? It was your audacity that got you to the doors you wanted to get to. But it is your authority....that will kick them in. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by BetterHelp!

Sometimes, you can’t afford to wait for an opportunity to fall into your lap. You can’t always wait for a door to be opened for you sis. Sometimes…you have to kick it in.

As we wrap up another year, don’t start evaluating all the things that you did not get to do. Do not, for one second, try to add up where you stand next to everyone else this year. Accomplishments come and go sis. But you are forever. The girl that you were earlier this year, last year, and years before – is not the same woman listening today. She has new goals, new dreams, and new values. That is an accomplishment within itself. As we go into this next chapter, and this new season…with new goals and aspirations. Keep doing exactly what you do best sis….you. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by Nike! Check out the Nike Go Leggings at Nike.com! Slay Girl Slay is sponsored by BetterHelp!

Sometimes you have to let go, and trust that things will work out the way that they need to. If it worked out beautifully before, it will work out beautifully again. The things that are big to us, are nothing to Him. And we have to learn how to step back, and stop trying to fight all of our battles, take all of our wins…and let God be exactly who He is….God. Sometimes life, sometimes your circumstances, and situations have to feel impossible…for God to show you that anything is possible. Let go sis….and trust that if He blessed you before, that you will be blessed again. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by Nike! Check out the Nike Go Leggings at Nike.com!

Just like we always know the leaves will change in the fall, and that the flowers will always bloom in the spring. That your time to bloom…will always come too. That there will always be a time in your life that you will produce new things, new seasons, new glory, new life, and new experiences too. No matter what life is looking like right now for you, something good is always on its way to you. But it takes patience sis. Patience with the dreams you have. Patience with the process you have to go through to get there. But most of all…it takes patience….with yourself. Thanks To Today’s Sponsors! Today’s episode is sponsored by Nike!

Life is already tough as it is sis. Don’t make it harder, by criticizing yourself. Criticizing your looks, your thoughts, your decisions…let it go. Allow yourself to just be yourself. Sometimes people, family, and even friends will say something to you, that will make you question who you are. The things that they say will make you question yourself, and who you’ve decided to be. But there is no version of you that will make everyone on this earth happy. The only person, that you can truly make happy….is you. Let people feel whatever they need to feel. But remember to put your feelings…first. Check Out The Merch! Get your official Slay Girl Slay Podcast merch at shopslaygirlslay.com!

There is more to your life than what you’ve already seen sis. Sometimes we get so focused on our day to day, our to do lists, and responsibilities that we forget to look at the bigger picture, that is our life. There is so much more to who you are, there is more of what you will do, more of what you will see, and more of what you will experience. You are not here by chance sis. Just like the stars and the moon in the sky, you were made with intention. Do not ever forget that.

You can make 100 plans and have 100 things to do, but that means nothing if you don’t have your priorities together. The year is coming to an end, and now is the time (before the turkey & the holiday shopping of course) to sit down and think about what you want the next 12 months of your life to look like. A lot can happen in a year sis, but only if you make your dreams, goals and ambitions a priority. Sometimes we make things, people, relationships, situations, and even feelings more important than they need to be. As we go into this next season…this next era….what will be most important to you?

Your life can sometimes be just like a puzzle: some pieces are together in one corner, and a a few pieces together in another. But there’s still a pile of things that you haven’t connected yet, pieces that are still in the box. In life, when you take a leap of faith, and follow your heart – the results don’t happen right away, you can’t see the full picture. Sometimes we find ourselves in a waiting season, still trying to put pieces of our lives together, and trying to see what will fit. But sis, if no one told you, let us remind you: what’s next for you, will be what’s best for you. Over the course of your life, you have only gotten better, and better, and better. And if you could only just keep going, keep pushing, and putting the pieces together, you will see that what comes next is better than what you were even expecting. We’ve Added Some New Merch!

When you find yourself living in a dream you once had, or you’ve accomplished a huge goal, it can be both beautiful & ugly sometimes. Everything in life has a price boo, and we’re not just talking about dollars and cents. The life you want to have, you will have to pay for it in some way. And sometimes that price can feel very expensive. But don’t get it twisted sis….just because it’s expensive doesn’t mean you can’t afford it. If something was placed on your heart to do, then it is there for a reason. You are equipped to handle whatever your dreams, goals and ambitions may cost you sis. Always have been, always will be.

The words you speak to others and most importantly to yourself, have power sis. The things you say out loud have the power to make you or break you, and you have to be mindful about what you speak. The words that you speak become the house that you live in, and if you wake up speaking from an awful, negative, ugly place – then that is where your mind will stay. If you wake up, and speak of all the good, of the change you see coming, of the light you see in every dark place, the good you want to feel…then that is where your mind will stay.

Never settle for anything, just because it’s available sis. If you settle for less than what you rightfully deserve, then you will get less than what you rightfully deserve. Whether you are choosing to be single, in a relationship, married or divorced – it is still a journey. And sometimes other people won’t understand that journey. But sis, hold on to your values.

Contrary to popular belief, your confidence can not be purchased sis. You can not find your confidence in the makeup aisle at Sephora. It can not be found in your likes and views on your social media. Confidence isn’t in what other people think about you, but most importantly how you think about yourself. It’s about how beautiful YOU think you are. It’s about how smart YOU think you are, or capable, or good enough…we can keep going. Confidence is about how you see yourself sis. And the more you start to confirm and reaffirm who you are, the less you’ll need others to. It’s Official! We’ve Got Merch! Get your official Slay Girl Slay Podcast merch at shopslaygirlslay.com!

A blessing can change your life in the most beautiful way, but sometimes blessings…can be heavy sis. Often times the big opportunities, the moments that change our lives, the blessings that we work for – don’t look so good in the beginning. We think that these opportunities and moments will make our lives feel good immediately, and everything will make sense, and all will be aligned. But most times…it’s the opposite. Some blessings…come with a tremendous cost and a tremendous sacrifice. But it would not have been given to you, if it was not for you. You would not have reached this point in your life, this moment, and this season…if you were not mean to. We want to hear your story!

Some of you are still waiting to move forward with your ideas, out of fear that it won’t happen the way that you want it to. Some of you are holding back on your plans, because you want it to be perfect before you get started. We’re not the experts, but sis…you can’t be a NY Times Bestseller – without a first draft…you know? You can’t be an Oscar winning actress, without a first audition. Those are just examples, but the point is, the outcome isn’t what matters at first. It doesn’t matter who likes what you do, or how you do it. What matters…is that you sit yourself down…and just start it. It’s Official! We’ve Got Merch! Get your official Slay Girl Slay Podcast merch at shopslaygirlslay.com!

You have to be super mindful about not just the things that make you happy, but even more mindful about the things that don’t. Protecting your peace, gives you a peace of mind sis. What good is achieving your goals and dreams if you don’t have the peace to enjoy them? What good is getting a bag, if you don’t have the peace to enjoy it? Some of us are working hard and finally starting to make moves in our lives – but constantly giving people, family, friends, coworkers the rights to take our peace away. But after today…we’re making some changes.  Mark your calendars, the Slay Girl Slay podcast has merch dropping on August 1st!!! Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

You can’t control what happens next, but you can do your best to be prepared for it. Planning for your life, your business, and even your family is just preparation. Preparing for the things you want to happen, and sometimes preparing for the things that you don’t. Anything can happen, and there is always a chance that it will…but your plans, keep you prepared, in the event that they do. What plans are you making right now sis, and in the event that those plans fall through – what’s next? Because it’s better to have a plan and not need it, than to need it….and not have it.  Thanks To Today’s Sponsors!

It’s a lot going on in the world right now, or maybe it’s a lot going on in your life and it’s easy to feel hopeless. But no matter what’s happening to and around you, make a decision to get up, and get yours anyway sis. You make the decision for what comes next in your life. You make the decision for how you want to move forward. Do not let people, family, friends, society, or whoever dictate the very gift, and the very essence of who you are. You make the decision….not them. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel! Join Our Membership! Learn more about our membership & join The Girl Gang!

The more you work, the more progress you make. But also, the closer you get to burning out. You can’t always be “on” sis. You are not a machine. Sometimes being unproductive is just as important as being productive, and this week we’re showing you how. No matter what’s on your plate, no matter how many responsibilities you have or the number of your to do lists – you deserve to rest. You can’t keep achieving more, without taking a step back, and doing less. If you needed a sign (or permission) to take a step back, and take a break – here it is. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

Remember 12 year old you? What you looked like? What you struggled with? Before you start beating yourself up today about how you’re not getting anywhere in life, or mad at yourself because you don’t feel like you’re making progress and your life is going nowhere – remember your 12 year old self. Believe it or not, you’re doing much better than you think you are sis. If you take a minute and remind yourself of your past – you might end up making yourself proud of all that you’ve become today.

No friction, no growth sis. No challenges, means no wins. Maybe the current challenge you are facing, is preparing you for a blessing that you’ve been waiting for. God will literally change your life, to accommodate the blessings that He has for you. But in order to accommodate for the things that you want, He has to move some things around in your life, make changes, remove some things, stretch some things, and put you through a process….to make room for them. Sometimes, in your toughest moments – you are being molded, shaped, and prepped into who you need to be to fully embrace, accept, and appreciate all the things that you are meant to have. You don’t deserve the hard challenges you face boo. But you do deserve to live the life you dream of.  Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel!

The reality is, bad things happen sis. Sometimes they happen to us, and sometimes they happen around us. But it’s our job to not let it get the best of us. Do not let bad situations, bad people, bad experiences, ruin the very good that is you. If you are still here, there is still time to love the people who love you, create the things you want to create, dream what you want to dream, and go to the places you want to go. That deserves the very best of you sis…and nothing else. Subscribe To Our YouTube! Watch the video component to the podcast on our YouTube Channel! Join Our Membership!

Sometimes the situations you find yourself in, and the outcomes you’re waiting for will happen the way that they are supposed to happen, and when they are supposed to happen. That means that there will be moments of your life where you can only do what you can do – and the rest is no longer up to you boo. A lot of us are trying to control things that we have no power in controlling. But instead of running yourself ragged, freaking out, and stressing – stop worrying about the “when” and shift your focus to the “how”…and then…just keep riding that wave until you get there.

The friends that you have today, may not be the friends that you have tomorrow. As you evolve and change, the people around you evolve and change too – and sometimes they don’t grow in the same directions that you’re growing. It can be tough making new friends as an adult, but you set the standards for your life…even within your friendships. We all have experienced jealousy, competition, and “weird energy” within our friend groups, that show us maybe the friends we have aren’t so great. But while you’re out looking for those great friends, that support you, add value to your life, and genuinely love you – remember great friendships…start with you. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

Some of you are sitting on some really dope ideas. Some of you have been wanting to step it up, and take your business to the next level. Take your projects and creativity to the next level. Take your life, to the next level. But you have not moved, because you are concerned with whether or not the world, your peers, your family, or your audience….will be pleased with what you do. But the reality is, you can’t please everybody sis. If who you are, and what you do is your best? Then who you are, and what you do…is enough. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

A lot of us know, what will ultimately make us happy. We know the things that we need to do to bring us happiness…but because there’s so many steps, and so many changes that we have to make to get there…we put it off. Doing things that bring us joy can sometimes be an inconvenience. It takes time out of our day, and not a regular part of our schedules. But sis….happiness is a choice. Happiness is not found at the end of the journey that you are on. In most cases…happiness can be found right where you are. Subscribe To Our YouTube!

It’s okay to be disappointed that your life doesn’t look the way you thought it would by now. But never forget, we live life on our own terms sis. Not by the terms of your family. Not by the terms of your friends, and certainly not by the terms of society. Don’t feel bad because you haven’t checked all the “life boxes” that you thought you should have checked by now. No matter what age you are, no matter what season you’re in, if it didn’t happen before today, it wasn’t supposed to happen before today. But the good news is…you still have a lot of life…to live.
