  • We Live, We Learn, We Do Better!
    Jun 28 2026

    Growth isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes the hardest conversations are the ones we have with ourselves.


    In this episode of It’s a Hard Knock… BUT It’s Life!, I explore what accountability really looks like: not shame, guilt, or self-condemnation, but taking ownership of our choices, our healing, and the patterns that keep showing up in our lives.


    We’ll talk about why it’s easier to point fingers than to look in the mirror, how personal responsibility creates freedom, and why healing begins the moment we stop making excuses and start making changes.


    If you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated by repeated life lessons, or ready to become the version of yourself you’ve been praying for, this episode is for you.


    Remember: accountability isn’t punishment, it’s the bridge between who you are today and who you’re becoming.

  • The Rain Release Prayer: Ancestral Clearing for Anger & Family Energy
    Jun 18 2026

    If you woke up carrying anger that doesn’t belong to you, this prayer is your reset.


    Spoken after a morning where rain literally began the moment the last word left my mouth, The Rain Release Prayer is a grounding invocation to:


    • Release anger stored in the body

    • Return energetic ties that drain your spirit

    • Break cycles of family-triggered pain

    • Call in ancestral protection and peace


    Place your hand on your heart. Press play. Let the earth help you wash it away.


    For best results: Listen in the morning, after conflict, or anytime your peace feels disrupted.

    Ashé.

  • When Life Doesn’t Pause-Why Do the Same Lessons Keep Returning?
    Jun 7 2026

    Episode 5: When Life Doesn’t Pause — Why Do the Same Lessons Keep Returning?


    Have you ever found yourself asking, “Why does this keep happening to me?” Different people. Different circumstances. Different seasons. Yet somehow the same lessons seem to return.


    In this episode, I explore the reality that life doesn’t stop when we’re hurting. It doesn’t pause for grief, heartbreak, legal battles, uncertainty, financial struggles, or the moments when we feel completely overwhelmed. The world keeps moving, and somehow we’re expected to keep moving too.


    Join me as I reflect on recurring patterns, personal growth, healing, resilience, and the lessons life continues to place in front of us. Together, we’ll talk about what it means to keep going when life feels heavy and how our hardest seasons often reveal our greatest strength.


    If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle, questioned your path, or wondered why certain challenges keep reappearing, this episode is for you.


    Because sometimes the lesson isn’t about what’s happening to us—it’s about who we’re becoming through it.
