Life as P....

We've all had that “Oh no… was I the drama?” moment....Phoenix Ash just made hers public. In this emotionally charged yet soul-nourishing episode of Life as P..., P gets raw about nearly fumbling a real one. From second-guessing a breakup to untangling hormonal hurricanes (hey PCOS, perimenopause....we see you), this episode isn't just self-reflection, it's a full-on emotional audit. There's emotional maturity, real-life receipts, and a deep dive into why we sometimes ghost the good ones… only to realize we might be haunted by our own fears instead. Trust, if you've ever self-sabotaged, this one's going to hit like a delayed text from your ex… except more healing and less chaotic.

What happens when empathy isn't a superpower—but a silent trap? In this heart-tugging, brain-sparking episode of Life as P..., Phoenix Ash holds nothing back. From the silent tug-of-war between empathy and self-preservation to the unexpected guilt of breaking up with the “perfect-on-paper” partner, this episode unpacks the emotional gymnastics many of us perform just to keep others comfortable. She's getting real about how being the “safe place” can become unsafe for you—and why letting go doesn't always mean giving up. Expect sharp self-reflection, dating drama with a moral compass, and that Phoenix-level maturity check we all secretly need. Bonus? She's got updates on her latest audiobook drop and more from her collection that'll have you screaming “TAKE MY MONEY.” Craving clarity with a side of soul food? This one's for you.

Ever get hit with a pain so real it feels like the universe just flipped your table and screamed, “Time to level up”? In this raw and revelatory episode, Phoenix Ash digs into the hurt — the kind that rewrites your diet, breaks your heart, checks your empathy, and still somehow becomes your teacher. From stomach cramps to soul shifts, Phoenix shares how pain is often the plot twist life uses to get us to our next chapter. Whether it's a messy breakup, a medical scare, or a creative block that won't budge, pain's got one job: make you pay attention. And spoiler — it's doing it really well. She's breaking it down like only P can — no fluff, no pity parties, just the truth about how the pressure of pain creates diamonds… and also gives you a way better book ending.

Sometimes being the “nice one” just isn't it. In this episode, Phoenix Ash unpacks the tightrope walk between compassion and cold-blooded boundary-setting. Whether it's dodging DMs from old flings with nostalgia amnesia, managing work chaos with surgical precision, or parenting with love and a firm “because I said so” — your girl is calling out the real: being labeled the a**hole might just mean you're finally taking care of yourself. Phoenix spills on how being direct isn't being rude, it's being real. From shady text messages to toddler negotiations to co-worker time warpers, this episode is full of that energy. Think less people-pleasing, more peace-keeping (by any grown-ass means necessary). Want more Phoenix? Check out her books here: Phoenix Ash on Amazon
