About Romy Ashwell

Romy’s Journal

Romy is thirty-two. In her story, she married at twenty-five and left at thirty, on the night of a birthday dinner she ended up paying for alone. Seven years of becoming the wife who never asked for much, and two years of learning to ask again. She paints on Sunday mornings now, in a small apartment that is entirely hers.

This journal, her podcast clips, the free book The Quiet Signs and the book Choose Yourself are about self-worth in love: noticing the quiet signs, leaving when you need to, and starting over without shrinking.

Not therapy, not advice

Romy is not a therapist, counselor, psychologist or doctor, and nothing here is therapy, medical or legal advice. If you’re struggling, a licensed professional can help with your situation.
