Let’s face it. Most of us are overwhelmed with stuff. In our super consumer-driven culture, we can become literally overcome with our things. And that overwhelm impacts more than just our living space—it lives rent-free in our peace.

It’s nothing to be ashamed of. As our world has evolved

If you want organization in your home, but without the overwhelm that often comes with organizing, this episode is for you! Yes, it is possible to create a calm, clean environment even when your house and life feels chaotic. This conversation is NOT about being “neat” or becoming a minimalist – it’s about honoring your nervous system, your story, and the ways your environment either holds you or is holding you back.

In this episode, Ashley is joined by Megan Flynn – founder of Live Simply Home Organizing – for a conversation that redefines what it really means to clear space in your home and your life.

Megan brings a deeply empathetic and non-judgmental lens to home organizing, drawing from her 17 years of nonprofit leadership and a degree in sociology. She’s helped countless families find peace and balance within their homes by uncovering the emotional and energetic weight clutter can carry.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

✨ The trauma behind the clutter

✨ Why we hold onto things we don’t even like

✨ How to move through shame, perfectionism, and fear when decluttering

✨ What our physical spaces reveal about our nervous systems

✨The sacred act of reclaiming your space – and your story

… and so much more!

Megan shares insights not just as a professional organizer, but as a busy wife, mom of two, and business owner who understands the real-life chaos many of us live in, and how to create calm within it.

This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by their home – and is ready to create a space that feels like an anchor, not a burden!

If you’re in Chicago, Megan’s your girl. But no matter where you live, this episode will inspire you to shift your relationship to your space in a whole new way.

What if creativity was the key to connection, healing, and legacy?

In this episode of Unapologetically Yours, Ashley Logan sits down with artist, curator, entrepreneur, and cultural connector G. Green to explore the deeper purpose of art—not just as something to be admired, but as a powerful force for belonging, truth-telling, and cultural change.

He opens up about the elitism in the art world, the lack of access for Black artists, and the need to create new spaces instead of waiting to be invited in.

G. Green is the founder of Nobodies A Nobody—a platform, brand, and movement rooted in the radical belief that everyone matters. Through storytelling, fashion, and community-centered art, he’s connecting people across difference and challenging the status quo of who gets to be seen, remembered, and celebrated.

What if your greatest heartbreak was the gateway to your greatest transformation?

In this intimate and soul-shaking episode of Unapologetically Yours, Ashley Logan sits down with world-renowned sex and relationship therapist Dr. Laura Berman for an intimate and unapologetic conversation on grief, embodiment, and the magic that can emerge on the other side of devastation.

After the tragic and widely publicized loss of her son, Laura found herself broken open. But from the ashes of that grief, she discovered something unexpected: a return to the body, to pleasure, to deep spiritual intimacy—and the birth of her newest book, Sex Magic. Together, Ashley and Laura explore how trauma disembodies us, how culture teaches women to give but not receive, and how reclaiming our sensual power is not just healing—it’s revolutionary.

Dr. Berman brings 30+ years of expertise to the table—she holds a PhD from NYU, is a New York Times bestselling author of nine books, a USA Today columnist, and host of the acclaimed podcast The Language of Love. You may know her from The Oprah Winfrey Show, but in this episode, she’s more raw, real, and radiant than ever.

Whether you’re navigating grief, craving deeper connection, or ready to feel more alive in your own skin, this conversation is an invitation to return to your body, reclaim your truth, and receive the life and love you deserve.

You’ll hear about:

✨ How devastating grief cracked Laura open

✨ The alchemy of loss and grief, and how it can awaken something sacred

✨ What no one tells you about trauma, the body, and why so many of us are disconnected from pleasure

✨ The raw truth about being a woman who receives, feels deeply, and dares to come fully alive

✨ Why your sensuality is not just sacred—it’s your superpower

✨ And the exact moment Laura knew: “I’m never going to be the same again… and that’s the gift.”

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve done “all the work” and still feel stuck, this episode is for you.

In this powerful and revealing episode of Unapologetically Yours, host Ashley Logan sits down with Bethany Davis, founder of Entheon Somatics, to explore the life-altering power of somatic healing - especially for leaders, creatives, and high-achievers on the verge of burnout.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• How trauma and stress patterns get stored in the nervous system
• Why somatic experiencing is essential for long-term transformation
• The physiological reasons high-performing women burn out
• How Bethany built Entheon Somatics to support executive and visionary leaders holistically
• What it looks like to lead from an embodied, regulated, and resourced place

If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Why am I reacting like this?” or “Why can’t I get past this block?”—this episode will help you understand what your body has been trying to tell you all along.
