The Soul Ache That Wouldn’t Let Her Stay...

ASHLEY GORDON
About this episode
You know those moments where everything’s technically fine…
but your soul is like: absolutely not?That was Julie Stephan.A pharmacist. A mom. A stable, "should-be-happy" life.

But something deep inside her was getting louder by the day.Until one night, she woke up to a voice that said: “You have to do this now.”

No logic. No plan. No podcast binge. Just a whisper that became undeniable.
She applied to QCA the next day and said yes to a future that hadn’t fully revealed itself yet.In this episode, Ashley and Julie are talking about that moment: the soul ache that won’t let you stay the same and what happens when you finally listen.Inside this honest AF conversation:
 The midnight wake-up call that hit harder than any Instagram quote
 How she left pharmacy and said yes to coaching, with a newborn on one hip and a toddler on the other.

 How she booked her first clients without a funnel, niche or 12-week marketing plan
 How to tell if it’s fear or your intuition saying “this is it”
 Why she didn’t wait to feel “ready”, and refused to ghost her next levelIf you’ve been sitting in the “I know I’m meant for more” ache… this episode is your sign. Press play and meet the version of you on the other side of the decision.
