The following podcast is a dear media production.

Hello, welcome to or welcome back to Trina to Care.

I'm laughing because I feel like every

episode I introduced myself in that way and I'm like do I have to do that like do I

have to introduce myself every episode I feel like it's so formal. But I do it anyways. So

hi, if you're new here, my name is Ashley. So happy to have you. But if you're not new here or you

listen to last week's episode. I briefly mentioned that I got

invited on my first brand trip and I was so nervous about going. I almost said no

because this was not only my first brand trip,

but the first event where I didn't get a plus one

and I had to go alone.

And I was just nervous about it.

And I didn't know anyone, and I didn't know what to expect. So naturally. about it

scared me and I didn't know what to expect so naturally it scared me but situations like that where I'm nervous and I'm overthinking and I'm allowing my anxiety to kind of control what I actually want to do.

I feel like I have to go through with it regardless of how scared I am because I talk so much about not caring what people think about you and not allowing other people

to dictate what you do with your life, especially in this podcast I talk about it.

And I just feel like if I were to allow my anxiety to get in the way of these incredible opportunities, I would be the biggest hypocrite.

Like I just don't want to be that person that's like, don't care what people think about you, like just go live your life and then I don't

take my own advice so with that being said I ended up going and I had the best time

ever I met so many amazing people the trip itself was just like incredible, so relaxing. Being Frenchy is who

hosted and invited me, which if you don't know, it's Ashley Tisdell's brand and of course,

of course Ashley Tisdell has gone on every single brand trip
