51: Ashley Wants You To Know That You Are Not Alone

In this episode, I chat with my cousin’s wife, Ashley. While this episode is not necessarily connected to last week’s episode, the two guests of the episodes are. Last week, I chatted with my cousin Adam regarding his adoption story and this week I’m chatting to his wonderful wife, Ashley. In this episode, Ashley shares about being grateful for Adam and how he helps to support her through tough times. Ashley’s tough times started in childhood when she realized that she was struggling with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. Like many of us, she found ways to push through the struggles until just a couple of years ago when she decided to get professional help. Ashley shares about her experience of getting help, the important lessons that she’s learned along the way, and how she passes those lessons along to her students.
