Perfectly Imperfect Healing: Ashley - Reclaiming Confidence after S*xual Assault

In this heartfelt episode of Becoming Sound, I sit down with Ashley, a powerful voice in the healing space, to talk about what it really looks like to face your past and reclaim your future. Ashley shares her raw and real journey through childhood s*xual assault, the unglamorous but transformative work of therapy, and how learning to set boundaries changed everything.

We talk about the courage it takes to speak your truth, the strength found in community, and why healing isn’t a one-and-done — it’s a lifelong, sometimes messy, always-worth-it journey. Ashley’s podcast and personal mission are all about reminding people they’re not broken — they’re becoming. And this conversation? It’s your reminder that you don’t have to heal in silence or isolation.

What you will learn in this episode:

Your story holds power — when you share it, you give others permission to do the same.
Therapy was a game-changer for Ashley’s healing and continues to be a vital tool.
Boundaries aren’t just helpful — they’re necessary for growth, safety, and peace.
Healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Community matters.
Confidence isn’t built overnight — it’s a practice.
Ashley encourages “messy action” over perfection — just start.
Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness.
You can change your story — and help others change theirs too.
You’re not alone in this. None of us are.
