EP9: Ash McDonald on Burnout, Worldschooling, and Intentionally Rebuilding

from How Moms Make It Work · host Corrie Myers

Ash McDonald had all the markers of “making it”: a booked-out business, thriving clients, and a beautiful new home. But when burnout hit again, she knew something had to (really) change. This episode is for the mom who's wondering if slowing down means giving up. Ash shares what happened when she let go of hustle culture, stepped back from her business, and leaned into homeschooling and worldschooling her three kids. She talks about healing on a cellular level, working just 10 hours a week, and the emotional work of letting herself be rather than prove.  We also talk about what she’s intentionally building now, for her clients and her own family. If you’ve ever felt like burnout is something you hit over and over again, you'll thoroughly enjoy hearing Ash's wisdom on the topic.  ✨ Resources Mentioned Ash’s Website: Here Ash on Instagram: @ashmcdonald Ash’s Podcast – Shamelessly Ambitious: Listen here The Burnout Breakthrough (Ash’s free 5-day audio/email series): Get it here Fit with Coco: Here (Ash’s go-to workout program) Corrie’s Website: corriemyers.com Corrie on Instagram: @corriemyers Music by: @johnbrazell Subscribe to How Moms Make It Work wherever you get your podcasts, and if today’s episode resonated with you, please leave a review—it helps more moms find these conversations.
