43. 🌈 Wiser Now, Dammit — How We Self-Sabotage in Love & Life

Hey y’all — it’s Ashley Hydrick, your Southern Lesbian, coming to you from London and Charleston. 👋

This week we’re talking about how we self-sabotage love and relationships — especially for Gen-X lesbians navigating dating, boundaries, and emotional healing. I share stories about being both the “Nice Girl” who gives too much and the “Free Girl” who stays too busy, and how both are just fear in disguise.


We’ll talk about expressing needs with calm and clarity (not chaos), learning to stay present when you want to run, and remembering that being chill doesn’t mean accepting crumbs.

Because healthy love isn’t about control or avoidance — it’s two people choosing to stay curious without losing themselves.

✹ Wiser now, dammit — and that’s the point.
