  • #47: Sacred Spaces
    Jun 2 2025

    Send us a text

    So many of us have the symptoms of emotional malnourishment:

    -listlessness

    -confusion

    -feeling nothing is good enough for ourselves or others


    When we are in this state, we struggle to find meaning and purpose. It's not because we don't have one, it's just because our lives have become devoid of sacredness.


    This is not about going to another person or place or organization to get your cup filled. This is about creating your own sacred space that only you can access.

    This kind of sacred space is not tainted by the opinions or rules of others.

    It is not colored by the false beliefs others have placed upon us (well-meaning or devious)

    It is an entirely safe space of our own creation. Ourselves and the Divine.

    Because we are powerful beings who deserve to give ourselves permission to access this sacred space.

    In this episode, we dive into HOW to create this kind of space, why we need to, and what emotional cup it fills for us.

    An unforgettable episode for sure <3

    Ashley Ogbaselassie is a speaker, blogger and ADHD parenting coach.

    Ashley is a lifelong learner, lover of connecting with people, and mom of 3 active boys. After struggling through the first years of parenting, getting stuck in comparison and feeling like she was the only one having a hard time, she finally navigated the long path to an ADHD diagnosis for her oldest and herself. And then she realized one important truth: ADHD is her superpower. After years of anxiety and feeling inadequate as a parent, she went from trying to change and control her kids to heal and change herself. She is now a parenting coach for parents of kids with ADHD and who are probably a lil neurospicy themselves.


    In this episode, Ashley gets real about her story with diagnosis-- along with the MANY pitfalls involved with getting a diagnosis. And then she goes into deep details about how being the parent of a kid with possible or confirmed neurodivergence can mess with your own nervous system.


    Don't worry, it's full of relateable, actionable steps that have you giggling through all the way.

  • #44: Astrology Unlocked: Planets! (#5 of 6)
    May 19 2025

    Send us a text

    We have gotten a slew of requests for a multi-part series explaining the basics about astrology.


    So after much deliberation, here it is-- an easily digestible format for understanding how to interpret astrological information. Or maybe you just want to be "in the know" when people say "my Venus is in my third house, so ya know..."


    If you don't "know," the Astrology Unlocked series breaks it down in a way that you can put things together in ways that make sense. And without rote memorization. It's a combination of formulaic understanding and deep visceral experience.


    This episode is all about interpreting the planets. Which planets are "good" and which planets do people hate? How can you work with the planets to provide more ease and flow in your life? And what do the planets represent in your life?

    In this incredible, deep episode, we go into all of this and more. And of course, we have tons of fun! Enjoy <3
