Living an Intentional Life Podcast
Welcome to Living an Intentional Life Podcast — a space for women who are remembering their hearts, reclaiming their energy, and creating lives that actually feel like home.
This is a place where you don’t have to perform, push, or prove — a place where you are met in your truth, your tenderness, and your becoming.
I’m your host, Ashley Strong Smith, and I believe that the deepest transformation doesn’t come from doing more — it comes from living with intention and listening more deeply to who you really are.
Each week, I share honest conversations and supportive tools you can gently try on in your own life — invitations to come back to your heart, trust your inner knowing, and create a life that supports your nervous system, your dreams, and your wholeness.
Here, we honor growth that is rooted, not rushed. We honor boundaries, embodiment, and the quiet wisdom of your own heart. You’re not here by accident. You’re here because something in you is ready for more — more truth, more softness, more alignment, more belonging.
So take a breath… and let yourself arrive.

From Student to Teacher: Reclaiming the Parts I Silenced | Episode 192
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There was a version of me I quietly put away.
I told myself I was meant to be the student… not the teacher.
That I wasn’t suited for that role.
That part of me slowly went dormant—not because she left, but because I stopped believing in her.
And yet… she never left.
In this episode, I share the journey of returning to a part of myself I once silenced—and what it felt like to finally say a full-body yes to stepping back into it.
We explore the deeper truth that the parts of us we think we’ve outgrown or left behind are often still within us… waiting.
Waiting to be acknowledged.
Waiting to be chosen again.
This conversation is an invitation to gently reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have been quieted, dismissed, or forgotten—and to begin rebuilding a relationship with them, one honest step at a time.
If something has been calling you back…
this episode is for you.
