Conversations Unscripted with Ashley from SimplyBlessedDesignz

Comparison is sneaky — it slips in, steals your peace, and leaves you feeling like you don’t measure up. But gratitude? Gratitude is the guard dog that keeps joy safe.

In this episode, we’re talking about The Gift of Less — how letting go of comparison makes room for more: more peace, more joy, and more Jesus. You’ll hear:
• How comparison...

Don’t miss the miracle, y’all. In this week’s episode of Unscripted Conversations, we’re talking about how God shows up in the everyday with provision, peace, and contentment.

I share one of my own miracle stories from when I was a single mama with thirty dollars to feed my boys, and how God provided in a way I’ll never forget. We’ll look at the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6, Jesus as the Bread of Life in John 6, the call to contentmen...

Are you a professional worrier like me?  If your brain can spin a “what if” story in 30 seconds flat, this episode is for you. In The Power of Praise – Turning Worry into Worship, I share how Philippians 4:6–7, Psalm 34:1, 2 Chronicles 20:22, Acts 16, and Isaiah 61:3 invite us to trade panic for peace.

We’ll talk about why praise shifts the atmosphere, how worship can crack open the blinds and let the light in, and why sometimes the...

Gratitude and humility — two simple words that can completely change the way we live. In this episode of Unscripted Conversations (S2E16), Ashley invites you to pull up a chair on the porch and lean into what it really looks like to live with a thankful heart.

 ✨ Why gratitude is more than a quick “thank You, Lord” before supper — and how it reshapes the ordinary moments of life.

What does it really look like to live out the Fruit of the Spirit in your everyday life? In this heartfelt front porch conversation, Ashley breaks down each fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—and shares how they take root and grow when we stay connected to God. You’ll laugh, reflect, and maybe grab your Bible as we explore practical ways to walk in the Spirit, even on th...

Sometimes the hardest part of spiritual growth isn’t the planting… it’s the pruning.

In this week’s episode, we’re talking about what it means to close the garden gate—to walk away from what no longer serves your peace, your purpose, or the God-given growth you’ve been working so hard to protect. 

This message is for the one who:

• Feels guilty for saying “no”
• Has outgrown old patterns, places, or people
• Is learning to set holy bounda...

Let’s be honest… forgiveness is hard.
 Not just the “I forgive you” kind that we say with a half-smile and a clenched jaw, but the deep, soul-level kind. The kind that means letting go of the right to be angry. The kind that asks you to release the past — even when you never got an apology.

In this raw and real episode of Unscripted Conversations, I’m diving into what it truly means to “Let Go and Let God.” Not in a cliché way, ...

Ever feel like your life is one big mess of cracks and broken pieces? Same. But what if those very cracks are the places where God’s light shines the brightest?

Ever look around and feel like everyone else is lightyears ahead? They’ve got the dream house, the perfect vacations, the business that’s booming — and you’re just over here hoping nobody discovers your leftover spaghetti science experiment in the fridge. 

In this episode, I’m sharing why you’re not behind. Not in your story. Not in God’s. Not for one blessed second.

We’ll talk about comparison, what Abraham & Sarah got wrong abo...

Ever feel like your life’s a full-blown circus — junk drawers exploded, laundry half done, supper burning, and your brain chasing 47 tabs at once? Been there. (Yesterday, actually.)

In this episode, I’m sharing all about finding REAL peace — not when life’s perfect, but right in the chaos. We’ll talk about why it never really “slows down,” how Jesus offers a peace that makes zero worldly sense, and what it looks like to trust Him wh...

Ever felt like God is holding out on you? Like you’re stuck in the world’s longest waiting room while everyone else is out there living their best life?

In this episode, we’re diving into those “not yet” seasons — the ones that feel like delay, disappointment, or even a straight-up divine “no.”

We’ll talk about what it means to trust God’s timing (even when it makes zero sense), how to keep your heart anchored when your plans keep ge...

Ever felt like you're doing everything right—praying, planting, showing up in faith—and yet… nothing’s happening?

Welcome to The Waiting Room—that sacred, stretching place where God pauses the plan but doesn’t cancel the promise. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the wrestle, the refining, and the reminders that He’s still working even when it looks like He’s not.

Grab your coffee, friend. This one’s tender, timely, and fu...

In this episode of Unscripted Conversations, Ashley from SimplyBlessedDesignz invites you to slow down and take a closer look at what God has planted in your life.

Are you nurturing your faith, family, and calling — or have you been too weary to keep watering?
