Authentically Ashlyn

If you’re exhausted from starting over every Monday, every month, or every time life gets messy, this episode is your tough-love intervention. Ashlyn is back with a fire-filled solo session, giving you the no-BS advice you need if you’re sick of quitting on yourself. She dives into the real difference between motivation and discipline (hint: motivation is lying to you), and how to finally fight the voice in your head that says, “no, bitch—not today.” Ashlyn breaks down what consistency actually looks like in real life, why success requires being flexible instead of perfect, and how to reroute without spiraling when things don’t go as planned. She also gets real about battling mom guilt, carving out time for yourself without apology, and choosing the version of you that’s waiting on the other side of commitment. This episode is your reminder that you don’t need a fresh start—you need a different strategy. Lace up, queen. It’s time to stop starting over and start showing up.

Ashlyn sits down with brand strategist, author, and business coach Sara Chambers for a deeply honest conversation about body image, self-worth, and the stories we’ve all been handed about what our bodies should be. Together, they unpack the myths and conditioning of diet culture—the praise for shrinking, the shame for expanding, and the exhausting cycle of “getting back on track” that so many of us know too well. Sara gets candid about her own experience moving through body image struggles and the toll that hyper-discipline took on her mental, emotional, and physical connection to herself. She shares how redefining her intention—her “come from”—shifted everything, and how approaching change from love instead of punishment has transformed her relationship with her body. This episode dives into embodiment practices, daily mindset rituals, and the inner work required to untangle self-worth from shape, size, and control. It’s about choosing yourself—every version, every season.

What if the best sex of your life is still ahead of you? Today on Authentically Ashlyn, we are joined by Brittany Policastro @sexually_liberated - a sexologist and empowerment coach who helps high-achieving women over 35 rediscover soul-affirming pleasure, deeper intimacy, and body confidence that doesn’t quit. We go there… from polyamory to kink, STIs to shame, and how to get out of your head and into your body. Brittany opens up about how her relationship with sex has evolved since her 20s, what shifted in her 30s, and how embracing her “big energy” has changed everything. This episode is a masterclass in feminine power, vulnerability, and unapologetic self-expression. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, afraid of your desires, or curious about what’s possible beyond “vanilla” - then this one’s for you. Press play, exhale the shame, and let’s talk about sex (and did she say 15 MINUTE ORGASMS?!) the way it’s meant to be talked about.

Buckle up, babes—this After Dark episode is not for the faint of heart. Ashlyn and Daija are joined by the unapologetically bold Audrina for an unfiltered deep dive into love, lust, and life after marriage. From navigating the chaos of dating apps to discovering what it really means to explore connection beyond convention, nothing is off the table. Audrina spills the tea on her experiences with polyamory, open relationships, and.. yes- orgies. The trio breaks down the taboos, laughs through the awkward, and keeps it very real about what it means to know (and own) your desires. Plus, things get extra spicy when they play a game of “Panty Drop or Hard Stop”- and trust us, you’ll want to play along. Raw, hilarious, and definitely unhinged enough to be enjoyed After Dark.

Sequel September is serving spice, besties- and we’re bringing back a fan-favorite guest: sex therapist + registered psychologist Erin Musick. If you remember Episode 97, you know Erin does not hold back when it comes to orgasms, desire, and all the messy, mind-blowing things in between. This time, we’re diving even deeper. From the infamous SAR test (aka: 14 hours of porn 👀) to busting Cosmo-era sex myths, Erin is here to unpack the lies we’ve been fed about female pleasure and why so many of us are still carrying shame in 2025. We’re talking quirks, kinks, masturbation, casual sex without catching feelings, relationship dry spells, and yes…whether faking it ever has a place in your bedroom. Nothing is off-limits: butt plugs, pegging, poop photos (yup, that one too), and the truth about what makes a kink healthy vs. a red flag. Erin also drops her best big-sister advice for single women, moms re-entering the dating pool, and couples navigating mismatched libidos. Bottom line? If you’re ready to ditch the shame, spice up your sex life, and finally get answers to the questions you’ve been too afraid to ask, this episode is your permission slip. -About Ashlyn- Ashlyn Gunderson is a mom, wife, business owner, life-long learner, and lover of all things words.

She also dives into the raw reality of training while moving through seasons of grief and how those experiences reshaped the way she approaches fitness today.

You might think after 12 years of coaching women in fitness, Ashlyn has always had it dialed. Spoiler alert: she didn’t. In this episode, Ashlyn takes listeners on a brutally honest walk through every era of her training life - from overtraining, under-eating, binge eating, boob jobs, drug-free preps, party phases, burnout, breakdowns… and all the messy stuff in between. She shares what she got wrong, what she’d do differently, and what she’d still do exactly the same, because hindsight’s 20/20, and apparently, she needed a lot of trial and error to learn the lessons she now teaches every day. If you’ve ever fumbled your way through a fitness goal, felt lost after reaching a big milestone, or questioned whether you’re “doing it right”… you are SO not alone. This episode is for the athlete, the coach, the mom, the competitor, the weekend warrior, and the woman trying to figure out her next move. Ashlyn keeps it real, raw, and unfiltered — breaking down the BS, normalizing the messiness, and offering the wisdom she wishes she had when she started. Part 2 is in the making, but for now- we start at the start. -About Ashlyn- Ashlyn Gunderson is a mom, wife, business owner, life-long learner, and lover of all things words.
