Making a Home Inside Yourself When the Holidays Wake Up Old Versions of You

Published 2 months ago
Description

In this episode, Ashley reflects on the Winter Solstice, the intensity of the holiday season, and what happens when familiar places and people awaken old patterns in our bodies. Drawing from a recent Lake Tahoe trip and her final facial pop-up of the year, she explores nervous system memory, growth that isn’t loud, and the quiet work of staying with yourself when everything feels activating. This is a grounded conversation about integration, self-trust, and learning how to make a home inside yourself.
