Memoir

It began with a daily ritual: acquire hot water, steep some tea, retreat to my reading spot, and engage in non-fiction reading. Through these reflective sessions of learning, pondering, unlearning, connecting, relearning, and applying, the perfect name evolved for that's precisely what was taking place: Insights Over Tea: Inspiring Thought Perspective.

Greetings! I'm Ashton, an old-soul exploring this world as a deep thinker and lifelong learner. Many of us are intimidated by the things we don't yet understand, and what brightens my soul from within is being able to share knowledge and perspective - to make learning more enjoyable and less intimidating because knowledge empowers our creativity, providing us the courage to attract and embrace amazing opportunities in life.

The more we learn, the less we allow fear, scarcity, expectations, self-doubts, and limiting beliefs to control our lives. When we intentionally eliminate distractions, procrastination, and excuses, we strengthen our self-esteem and confidence. And as our comfort zone expands to cover more real estate, that's when we invite new connections, new perspective, new opportunities, and new experiences to enrich and enhance our lives.

With determination, persistence, and commitment to stay focused on aligning and connecting with the core essence of your highest spiritual self, you'll ultimately experience your breakthrough, inspiring you with passion to actively create and attract your ideal reality, naturally making everything else irrelevant. You'll literally glow from the inside out with soul-fulfilling happiness that is unlike anything you've experienced before.

That's when you finally be able to understand what serenity, tranquility, peace, freedom, and abundance really feels like, with a clear conscience knowing that you intentionally stopped the resulting effects of your actions from negatively impacting someone else's life - because too much of our time is wasted navigating the consequences of both our individual actions as well as those of others, both directly and indirectly.

As you intentionally pursue self-actualization, you provide yourself joy and peace for your mind, body, and spirit. With your trust and faith that all will be well - for life always finds balance - you also become a better child, friend, student, sibling, colleague, teacher, spouse, parent, and role model as you move in appreciation, gratitude, and respect for energy, time, and the gift of life itself - for yourself, loved ones, and humanity as a whole.

That's the beauty of curiosity (to uncover your individual and unique 'why') and creativity (to establish your individual and unique 'how'). This allowed me to evolve into the person I am today, and I'm ecstatic to mentor, coach, and make this work my Passion Project - to guide and provide you with the opportunity to experience what it's like to become your own best friend, allowing you to make the most of the best that life introduces you to.

Ultimately, I want you to be inspired to discover your own Passion Project and make it yours, then have the audacity to be courageous, confident, and empowered to share what makes you passionate with the world. Because what the world needs - especially right now - is for you to do what makes your soul come alive from a place of joy and love so that you become the inspirational, influential role model that your inner circle needs.

Your best friend - your highest spiritual self - is eagerly waiting for you to choose to show up so that they can guide you to experience soul-fulfilling happiness and time freedom. Be bold and brave to answer your calling by becoming your best self and discovering your life's purpose, and give yourself permission to live free and thrive in abundance! Are you ready to meet the best version of yourself that you never knew existed?
