In this deeply personal and transformative episode of Non-Negotiable Living, Ashley takes a hard look at six common habits that many women, especially mothers, have normalized in their lives—and how these habits are often rooted in unresolved childhood trauma. From over-apologizing for existing to carrying the emotional weight of others, Ashley explores how these survival mechanisms shape our behaviors, our relationships, and our well-being.

Ashley uncovers the roots of these habits, showing how they stem from our upbringing and how they continue to affect us in adulthood. She highlights the importance of recognizing these behaviors, showing compassion to ourselves, and starting the healing process. Whether it's guilt for resting, fearing love, or the constant need for hyper-independence, this episode is a powerful reminder that you're not broken—you're human, and you can break free from the habits that hold you back.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re stuck in survival mode or have found yourself unknowingly sabotaging your own well-being, this episode is for you. Tune in for real, honest advice on how to move forward, heal, and start living a life of peace, growth, and thriving.
