Just a quick message to let you know that I'm taking a short hiatus to do some restructuring and recording. I'm setting us up with a new community platform where we can chat, we can ask questions, get answers, and to truly connect on In Our Skin.
I will be back in no time and we will have a Substack where you can watch, listen, read, comment, share, take part in new fun offerings. And over there you'll have access to more content and more ways to come together. To grow, and to learn, together.
Also don't fret because you can still find the podcast in all of your favorite listening locations. Coming down the pipeline, we've got episodes on perfectionism, and as you've heard me say, we have Christie Tate, author of Group and BFF, coming to talk to us. In honor of this, I would love to have you join us for Book Club this month as we delve into Group.

With 69-84% of women out there struggling with their relationship bodies, it's clear that this is a pervasive problem and something we need to be addressing. So where do we begin? First we have to understand where it comes from, then we begin to change it.

The conversation last week sparked a lot of interest. A resounding "that is my life" from the ladies in the crowd. So while I had planned to take the pod conversation in another direction, I found myself instead taking a little pause to give it all a little more thought. The question I’ve been sitting with and digging into: WHY?
Why are things seemingly changing and yet barely changing at all? Why are the men who want to support change still lagging behind in their actual change and contributions and how are we, as women potentially contributing to our own problem?
Today I’m going to give you the perspective that come through the work I do. How this ties into EMDR, healing, breaking patterns and change.

Women, whether they are single, married, mothers or not are doing more of unpaid work in our world then men. This is true from age 18 on, peaking at 35 to 45 years. 75% of unpaid work is done by women. Globally, that 11 billion hours daily. Statistics show that women are doing at least ⅔ of the work to care for home and family on average, regardless of their their employment status, regardless of how much they make. So what can we do? Give a listen.

Today we’re taking a different angle on health, wellbeing and longevity. She has reshaped the way I’m looking at health, becuase not only are her findings valuable and relevant, they are showing us that human connection is undeniably a cornerstone of health. It is more impactful than genetics, healthcare and our health behaviors (like how we eat, how we take care of oursevles) in predicting how long we will live. Those with social bonds are 50% more likely to live longer. Listen in to learn how.

Today we are talking about somatic healing, interoception, that internal felt sense, can become a compass for not only healing, but for living more aware. We'll also talk about how emodiment, that thing that so many with body image challenges fear, is actually the antidote to body dissatifaction and could be the answer to feeling more satisfied in your life.
How do we feel better in our skin? That's what this one's all about.

Today, we’re talking about something I’ve found to be pretty transformative: Yoga therapy. We'll explore the convergence of ancient eastern yoga practices and western psychology to see how the two come together. I'll expand on the roots of yoga, the aspects that many may not have heard of or been taught so that you can begin to expand your view of yoga and the many practices therein.

Today we are talking about Emotional Spending.
Money is a whole thing for us as humans and how we spend can be a pretty charged subject. Studies suggest that about 70% of us have struggled with emotional spending, but I’d wager that that number should be higher. Almost 6% of us have a shopping addiction or compulsive buying disorder. Whether or not this is diagnosis level, even occasional bouts of it can wreak havoc on us.
Today we are talking about why we buy. Emotional spending, impulse buying and more. Where the patterns develop and what we can begin to do to understand and change them.

If life and relationships have been hard, I hear you. My hope is that what we are talking about today will help... Because it’s one of the greatest things we can do for ourselves and one we may be avoiding whether intentinonally or unintentionally. Today we are talking about resentment.
So we are going to talk the WHY behind resentments, what happens when we hold them, and how to start to move through and beyond them. How’s that sound? I’ll share with you my own present day practice that I’m using to dig in and clear out all the things that could otherwise build up and wreak some havoc.

The holidays—filled with warm lights, delicious meals, and cherished traditions. But let’s be honest: they can also bring a unique set of challenges, especially when family dynamics are tricky. Whether it’s differing opinions, lingering conflicts, or just the stress of gathering everyone in one place, managing these moments takes finesse, maybe a little grace and a bit of compassion.
Consider today’s episode a friendly guide to help you navigate those challenging conversations, family dynamics, food dears and all that might unfold as you pony up to that holiday table. Let’s make this season one to remember… For the right reasons. So that you don’t feel like you are losing yourself in the shuffle.

Today we are joined by Katie Hammil, Katie is a registered dietitian, her dietary philosophy is steeped in science and years of education and learning through her own experiences and those of her clients. She truly believes that there is no one universal style of eating that we should all follow. She wants to help people become more confident in how to feed themselves and their families.
Katie’s here to help us break down food, how we can adopt a simplified approach to how we eat to give our body more of what it needs rather than taking a restrictive approach that makes us feel like we need to eliminate. She’ll talk with us about not cutting foods out, rather starting where something is missing. Katie has followed all of the trends and has watched the research unfold to show what is and isn’t best for all of our bodies. And I’ll give a little spoiler alert here: In the long run, eating in the basic way she is going to outline is our best method for health and longevity. We’ll talk about to let go of the judgments of what we don’t know about this stuff and how to stop judging foods, to instead slowly build an understanding of what works for our body… Our body that is different than our bestfriends, different than our husbands, our daughters and what that means for us in meeting our own needs.
You can find Katie on Instagram @katiehammillnutrition and her website katiehammillnutrition.com

Today, we are talking about how we eat… About the nutrition education most of us have never gotten. The confusing messages we’ve received and where to go from here. Did you know that most people aren't able to accurately assess the quality of their diet? That most people think they are doing great when that might not be the case? So let's see if we can close the gap. Later this week we’ll have Katie Hammill on to talk to us about nutrition. What we need to know, how to find our way through the maze of information out there to get to what’s really important and at the end of the day, to feel good about food.
In this episode Ashley will walk you through questions to assess where you are when it comes to nutrition. Grab a pen and paper:)

Today we chat with Courtney McHenry. Courtney is a registered dietitian who shares her story of developing patterns of disordered eating and overexercise during her training. Her journey is one that many will relate to, when "best practices" go to far and suddenly you're left feeling like it's never enough. Learn how she moved away from tracking, counting and over-doing to find her way back to herself, to intutive eating, and back to the forms of movement that actually support her. We also touch on kids, how we can approach food and eating with them to prevent disordered eating patterns, food anxiety and fear. More on this in episodes to come...

Join Ashley to examine how shifting our relationship with exercise can free us. How to develop a new way of thinking about movement that might just free you of some long held patterns and blocks that might be weighing you down or causing you to beat yourself up.
Research has shown that movement is as effective as antidepressant medication in improving mood. It can counteract stress, regulate our metabolism and our sleep. It can boost our learning, memory, and attention. It's about more than weight loss.
Listen until the end for a guided exercise to get you started.

Today we speak with Cait Donovan who breaks down the truths about Burnout, what it really is and how we really get there. Cait is an author, a speaker and share so much for us all not only here today, but in her podcast “Fried, the burnout podcast”. She bridges the gap between east and west, bringing the knowledge of her training in chinese medicine to her study of 40 years worth of burnout research to help us understand what most are missing when they think of burn out. We’ll explore hyper-independence, resentment and self-neglect. How our brain is affected and how we can actually grow our brain through interoception, which we’ll break down for you.

Today, we are going to take life scan. A self-check to see where you are at in managing your energy, what your got to give each day and what feels like it is burning you out… Because we all feel this a little, don't we? Those things in our lives that take more than they give. Moments when we feel like we are running on fumes, our tanks empty.
We’re going to assess where your time and energy are going on the obvious and less obvious levels. Where you WANT it to go and WHERE you would like to be spending less of it. We’ll look at what’s in your control, lovingly acknowledging that which is not so we can focus where we see possibility.
We’re talking about an exercise in zooming out and looking back to see where some of these things really started… The patterns in relationships, in the way we work, in the way we live that put us out of balance, that spread us thin, and what we can do to start to reset and change that.
