About this listen

Welcome to Wife in Bloom — the podcast for Christian women who are ready to grow in confidence, renew their mindset, and see their marriage and intimacy flourish in the way God intended. 🌸

I’m Ashley, and not too long ago I was drowning in shame, insecurity, and negative self-talk. At over 330 pounds, paralyzed by anxiety and ADHD, and hiding from life behind a smile, I believed I was broken. But God had a different plan — and through His grace, I’ve grown into a confident, healthy, faith-filled woman, a wife in bloom.

Here, we’ll talk openly and honestly about the struggles Christian wives face — from body image to intimacy, from self-worth to communication — and how faith, mindset, and practical growth can transform everything.

This isn’t about perfection. It’s about progress. It’s about taking off the labels of “not enough” and “too broken” and learning to see yourself as God sees you: loved, capable, and called.

Each week, I’ll share real stories, biblical truths, and practical steps to help you break free from shame, grow in confidence, and create a thriving marriage rooted in Christ.

Because girl, you’re not just surviving — you’re meant to bloom. 🌸

  • "Godfidence: Shifting Your Self-Image to Align with God's Truth"
    Aug 23 2025

    🌸 Episode 2: Godfidence — Shifting Your Self-Image to Align With God’s Truth 🌸
    Do you ever look in the mirror and hear nothing but criticism? Do you catch yourself dismissing compliments, comparing yourself to others, or believing lies about your worth? Girl, you are not alone—but you also don’t have to stay there.
    In this episode of the Wife in Bloom podcast, I’m sharing how shifting my self-image to align with how God sees me completely transformed my life, my marriage, my motherhood, and my faith. We’ll talk about:
    ✨ Why insecurity is actually disobedience when it contradicts God’s Word
    ✨ How self-image and self-talk impact intimacy and connection in marriage
    ✨ What changed when I decided to walk in confidence as a daughter of the King
    ✨ How my ADHD and imposter syndrome used to keep me stuck in shame cycles—and how positive self-image broke the pattern
    ✨ Practical steps (with Scripture!) to renew your mind and walk in true Godfidence
    💡 Key takeaway: The most powerful thing you can do today to change your life forever is shift your mindset about yourself. When you finally agree with God about who you are, it sets you free to live boldly, love deeply, and bloom fully.
    🙌 Don’t forget your mirror homework at the end of this episode—I promise, it will change the way you speak to yourself.

  • From Broken to Blooming
    Aug 14 2025

    I used to believe I was broken.

    At over 330 pounds, drowning in anxiety, ashamed of my body, and paralyzed by ADHD, I couldn’t even pick up the phone to make an appointment. My house was messy, my brain was messier, and I lived every day under the weight of negative self-talk and shame. I smiled for everyone else, but inside? I felt like a disaster.

    And that shame followed me everywhere — into my marriage, into intimacy, into my faith. I prayed the lights would stay off in the bedroom. I believed my husband’s compliments were just pity. I looked in the mirror and heard the same voice every single day: “You’re not enough.”

    For years, I believed that voice. I believed I was too far gone to ever change.

    But one small question changed my life: What if I’ve been wrong about me?

    That tiny thought was the beginning of a completely different journey — a journey of tearing down lies, rebuilding confidence, and letting God show me the truth of who He created me to be.

    Today, I’m living proof that transformation is possible. I’m no longer ashamed, anxious, or hiding from life. I’m healthy, confident, chasing huge dreams, walking closely with Christ… and yes, even bold enough to talk about sex on the internet (not because I want to, but because God called me to).

    This episode is where it all begins. You’ll hear the raw truth of who I was, the pain I carried, the turning point that shifted everything, and the steps that led me to become a wife in bloom.

    If you’ve ever felt too broken, too insecure, or too ashamed to believe change is possible — this is your invitation to see yourself differently. To start small. To grab hold of the truth that God has more for you.

    Because girl, if He can do it in me, He can do it in you.

    Hit play on Episode 1 and find out how I overcame… and how you can too.
