About our Guest: Ashlee aka AshIsHere

Ashlee's childhood and early twenties were an overall happy time that set a solid foundation for adulthood. She had a small taste of life's unpredictability in those formative years but was able to persevere with the support of her loved ones. Once she graduated college and began working full-time as a special education teacher, her drinking increased as all the social activities she was engaging in involved alcohol. A couple of life-altering events would send her into a tailspin in her late twenties. Although Ashlee had a wonderful upbringing, she lacked the social-emotional skills required to navigate through these stressful scenarios. Not knowing where to turn, her drinking habits became increasingly problematic. Ashlee walks you through how dark and lonely her life became and what measures she took to regain ownership of her life and start following her bliss. She also shares pieces of her experience having a partner who is also in recovery and how she and her husband have found success in their own individual journeys while simultaneously supporting each other.
