Light of the Way by A Line Within

What if everything could just be easy? Does life need to be heard? Ashley begins this episode by sharing that she was woken up on December 12th with this mantra repeating to her for over an hour, "Release the hard, allow it to be easy." As the holiday season approaches and Christmas draws near, Ashley reflects on the unconscious habits, patterns, and roles that quietly add pressure and heaviness to everyday life. She explores what truly makes life feel hard, and gently challenges the belief that effort and struggle are required in order to grow, heal, or move forward. This conversation opens a deeper understanding of what "easy" really means. Ease does not necessarily equal immediate comfort. In fact, choosing ease often asks for change, awareness, and a willingness to step away from familiar but limiting ways of being. Ashley speaks to how ease can feel unfamiliar at first, yet ultimately brings more presence, clarity, and alignment. The episode offers a grounded invitation to move through the holiday season differently — with more intention, softness, and consciousness — while releasing what no longer needs to be carried. It's a reminder that ease is not something to earn, but something to allow. Ashley also shares about The North Node: A Map Back to Yourself, a newly launched six-week live experience and intimate workshop. This container is designed for those who feel called to reconnect with their intuition, gain clarity on their soul's direction, and return home to themselves. Applications are now open, with details shared inside the episode. This episode is a reminder that life does not need to be forced. Ease is available. And choosing it is always possible. * * * * * * * * * * * * The North Node: A Map Back Home to Yourself : APPLY HERE Attend Ben's Silent Satsang : RSVP Attend Ashley's Solstice Satsang Celebration : RSVP The GUIDED Membership: Everyday Support for Your Awakening — workshops, live satsang, tools and community all in one place.

Authenticity has become a buzz word. It's trendy and used everywhere — but what does it actually mean? In today's episode, Ashley is explores this, beyond language, aesthetic, performance and identity. It begins with the power of feeling - something that so many people have forgotten how to do. Ashley teaches that feeling is the doorway to authenticity. It is how we return to who we are beneath conditioning, patterns, survival strategies, and the identities we built to stay safe. She also speaks about how, through the awakening process, it can feel like we are dying and being reborn again and again as these layers fall away. She shares stories from her own life about the places she has softened and how we are all truly just doing our best. Ashley invites all of you to join her on December 31 for a powerful ceremony to close out the past few years and enter 2026 with clarity, presence, and peace. It would be an honour for her to guide you through this transition. May this episode support you as you rise and come home to yourself. * * * * * * * * * * * * The GUIDED Membership: Everyday Support for Your Awakening — workshops, live satsang, tools and community all in one place.

In this episode of Light of the Way, Ashley opens the month of December with the first real breath after Mercury retrograde. She shares how the snow, the winter sky, and the green ocean trail revealed a new clarity — the kind that arrives only when you stop resisting the season of life that you're in. She speaks about the dark time of year and why aligning with it matters: waking with the sun, slowing down, resting more, going outside, honouring the natural rhythm instead of fighting it. This season isn't meant to be productive; it's meant to soften you open. From there, Ashley shares a miracle that happened in the apple aisle at Whole Foods, and another moment of recognition that followed. These moments brought her into a full understanding that there is no shame in anything we walk through. Everything is unfolding exactly as it should. Finally, she shares what's happening inside A Line Within this month, including the December 20th ceremony, and the inspiring energy she's feeling now that she's broken the glass ceiling she unknowingly placed upon herself. This episode is an opening — to life, to miracles, to winter, and to the truth of why we are here. * * * * * * * * * * * * The GUIDED Membership: Everyday Support for Your Awakening — workshops, live satsang, tools and community all in one place.

In this episode, Ashley opens the Akashic Records and channels the guidance for December: this is a softening. The energy may feel more intense as the month begins, but the Records remind us to loosen our grip, to move slowly, and to return to grounded awareness. The message arrives like a teaching in imagery — if you walk too quickly while holding a candle, you risk dropping it. The month ahead is not about fear or contraction, but about walking softly, remembering peace, and allowing spaciousness to form within. After the channeled message, Ashley and Faith explore the astrology of December. They speak about the rapid shifts and transformations unfolding this month and how they reflect the design of the planets themselves — the celestial choreography shaping our collective and personal experience. Ashley then shares deeply from her own life, offering stories from her current season of softening. She speaks about creating space within her heart by gently releasing something that has been part of her story for the past four years, and how this inner unraveling mirrors the guidance coming through the Records. This episode is an invitation to breathe, to soften, and to trust the path as it opens. * * * * * * * * * * * * Year-End Sale ! Shop our biggest sale of the year!
