In this heartfelt and grounding episode of Becoming Her with Ashley Martin, Ashley speaks directly to the woman (and man) who feels stretched thin and overwhelmed by life’s demands. With the holidays approaching, a government shutdown impacting many, and everyday stress piling up, Ashley offers a gentle reminder to pause, breathe, and trust in your body’s innate ability to heal and adapt.

Through reflections on neuroplasticity, patience, and the importance of community, Ashley encourages listeners to find peace in the midst of chaos and to see life’s hardest moments as a classroom for growth. She shares her own grounding practices—journaling, prayer, walking, laughter, and rest—that help her stay centered, while reminding us that everything we need to overcome challenges is already within us.

Whether you’re navigating uncertainty, battling the holiday blues, or simply in need of a reminder to slow down and release unrealistic timelines, this episode is a warm, soulful invitation to honor your body, nurture your spirit, and remember: you’re not behind—you’re simply becoming.
