Courage Is the Cure for Anxiety: The Truth About Fear, Faith & Forward Motion

In this solo episode, Ashley names what most people only whisper about: the anxiety behind high-achieving women who feel stuck. If you’ve ever overthought yourself into paralysis or confused control with confidence, this one’s going to hit deep.

Ashley pulls back the curtain on her own journey with anxiety—not from a diagnosis or a trending reel—but from real life. From the space between ambition and action. From the loop of “what ifs” and the truth that finally set her free: courage is the cure.

Inside this episode, we dig into:

• How anxiety shows up when your intelligence outpaces your courage
• The three hard truths that helped Ashley break the cycle of overthinking
• Why fear in disguise can sound like “research” or “wisdom”
• The simple question that can interrupt your next spiral
• How faith, forward motion, and a little fire can shift everything
• What it really means to lead with bravery, not burnout

This one’s part sermon, part strategy—and 100% permission to move, even if your voice shakes.

If you’ve been stuck in your head, this episode will bring you back to your heart.

You’re not too late.

You’re not too much.

You’re not broken.

You’re just being called to rise—with courage.

Remember, stay confident, stay focused, and keep wearing those pants with pride.
