Summary

In this episode of Light of the Way, Ashley opens the month of December with the first real breath after Mercury retrograde. She shares how the snow, the winter sky, and the green ocean trail revealed a new clarity — the kind that arrives only when you stop resisting the season of life that you're in.

She speaks about the dark time of year and why aligning with it matters: waking with the sun, slowing down, resting more, going outside, honouring the natural rhythm instead of fighting it. This season isn't meant to be productive; it's meant to soften you open.

From there, Ashley shares a miracle that happened in the apple aisle at Whole Foods, and another moment of recognition that followed. These moments brought her into a full understanding that there is no shame in anything we walk through. Everything is unfolding exactly as it should.

Finally, she shares what's happening inside A Line Within this month, including the December 20th ceremony, and the inspiring energy she's feeling now that she's broken the glass ceiling she unknowingly placed upon herself.

This episode is an opening — to life, to miracles, to winter, and to the truth of why we are here.
