GIRL TALK with Ashley: Motherhood, Hypothyroidism, Betty Squad, and all things TriLife
Episode 37: Show Notes.
It is humbling to learn a new skill, especially when you are an adult! Our guest today took on the challenge of learning how to swim, from zero to triathlete distances, as an adult. Today I sat down with Ashley, who is also a member of the Betty Squad and is truly inspiring and motivating. I definitely suggest you go and check out her Instagram feed (@tri_mom_of4). She is an athlete, triathlete, art teacher, wife, and mom to four! Today, Ashley shares how she manages to live with an autoimmune disease, something we connected on personally, all the while being a mom of four, and tackling the training for a variety of triathlon distances. She also goes into what it means to be part of the Betty Squad and shares her why she races, levels up, and pushes herself to accomplish the sporting endeavours she signs up for. You don’t want to miss out, so tune in today!

Tweetables:
“Staying consistent and putting in the time and effort really pays off in the long run!” — Ashley [0:07:48]
“I think diet and sleep, and all those little pieces together helps me to keep my energy up and keep moving — and feeling like I actually am me! I think with hypothyroidism you don’t actually feel like yourself when you go through really low lows and your numbers are off. It’s like an out of body experience.” — Ashley [0:09:20]
“There is definitely something I’ve learned at every race — which was fun and that was motivating right there, to just keep at it and think about what I would learn today.” — Ashley [0:16:32]
