Trigger Warning: In this episode of the SOVEREIGN Magazine® Podcast, host Nicole George connects with Ashley Dahlem, SOVEREIGN Magazine®’s Birthwork, Body Wisdom & Cyclical Care Columnist, to explore the October Full Moon theme “You Are Worthy and Enough” through Ashley’s story of sobriety and healing. Ashley recounts waking in a haze after drinking, realizing she was no longer safe, and choosing to stop drinking by entering rehab and devoting a year to herself. They discuss how a core wound of “not enough” fueled masking and addiction, and how community support, coaches, and self-trust helped Ashley reclaim her inner knowing. Ashley shares her mantra “compassion over comparison,” emphasizing that acceptance and awareness begin with honesty, and draws parallels between emotional healing and labor, where fear can stall the body. They also address birth grief and regret, reframing survival patterns as body wisdom and highlighting the healing power of being witnessed and telling the truth.Timestamps:01:06 Meet Ashley Dahlem02:14 Rock Bottom Wake Up Call03:50 Choosing Rehab and Self04:49 Core Wound Not Enough07:33 Compassion Over Comparison09:52 Birth Work Parallels11:10 Nicole Birth Story13:03 Healing Birth Grief14:31 Closing and Next EpisodeConnect with Ashley DahlemEmailInstagramWebsiteFacebookProducer’s credits:Nicole George - Podcast Host | CEO/Founder SOVEREIGN Magazine® | Editor-in-Chief Ariane Lim - Podcast Producer + EngineerSara Wagle - Audio Efficiency & Flow ManagerMarielle Setenta - Enterprise AssistantLatest Issue: Click here Become a Columnist: learn more here.Connect with Us:InstagramFacebookLinkedInSubstackYouTubeThreads
