This bonus episode is a gentle invitation to slow down and turn inward. Ash shares the menstrual phase meditation from inside The Regulated Woman. This meditation is designed for your inner winter (the phase of rest, release, and renewal) offering a place to land when your body is asking you to pause instead of push.

TOPICS WE EXPLORE:

• Using your menstrual phase as a time for rest and restoration
• Releasing pressure, guilt, and the need to be productive
• Connecting with your inner winter and natural rhythm
• How stillness supports clarity, intuition, and nervous system repair
• Giving your body permission to slow down without explanation
• Why honoring this phase protects and expands your energy
• Creating safety in your body through breath and visualization

POINT OF THE EPISODE:

Your menstrual phase is not a problem to push through… it’s a powerful reset. When you honor this phase with rest and intention, you conserve energy, build self-trust, and support your body in doing exactly what it’s designed to do.

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.
