Hey, Chaos Breaker.
I'm Ashley!
(But most people call me "Schwee")
I know what it’s like to be really good at holding everything together — and still feel like your own life is falling apart.
Before Schweet Living became a business, it became the system I desperately needed myself.
I could run a
Hollywood production...
...but I couldn't run my own life.
For nearly two decades, I worked behind the scenes of major film, television and live productions. Disney. DreamWorks. Network television. Live events. Hundreds of people. Thousands of moving pieces. Deadlines that didn't move — And somehow, everything had to land on time.
Every production had a system. Schedules. Budgets. Department heads. Production meetings. Call sheets. I knew how to bring order to enormous amounts of complexity.
Then I'd go home...
and try to run my whole life out of my head.
Behind the scenes, I was drowning.
I was working three jobs. I was carrying more than $360,000 of debt. My home overwhelmed me. My mind never shut off. I was exhausted from reacting to whatever felt most urgent.
And the strangest part? On paper, I was great at life.
I was responsible. Capable. Hardworking. I knew how to lead teams and solve everyone else's problems.
I just couldn't understand why I couldn't seem to get my own life under control.
So I did what high-capacity women do. I tried harder. And harder wasn't working.
$0.86
That's what was left
when I WENT to buy groceries
One day, standing in my local grocery store, I discovered I had just 86 cents left in my account — not even enough to cover the bags to carry my groceries home.
For someone used to making things work — figuring it out, pushing through, finding another way — this moment stopped me cold.
I couldn't hustle my way out of this anymore.
Something had to change.
Not just my money. My whole life.
I wasn't broken.
I was buried.
I wasn't carrying too much because I was weak. I was carrying too much because I was carrying everything.
And suddenly I saw the contradiction.
At work, nothing important was expected to live inside one person's head.
But at home?
Appointments. Money. Meals. paperwork. schedules. relationships. health. goals. clutter. responsibilities. decisions.
I was trying to mentally produce an entire life — from memory.
I didn't need to become a different woman. I needed a different way to carry my life.
So I borrowed from Hollywood.
What if I produced my life the way I produced everything else? I started borrowing the principles I'd trusted for years on set:
- Make the invisible visible.
- Know what matters next.
- Give everything a place to live.
- Build rhythms instead of relying on memory.
- Stop solving the same problem over and over.
I started small. One wall. One rhythm. One breakthrough at a time. And slowly, chaos started turning into command.
Over time, we paid off more than $360,000 of debt and built real wealth. But the transformation I care most about wasn't a number.
I could finally breathe inside my own life.
Why Schweet Living Exists
I don't believe women need one more person telling them to try harder.
You've tried harder. You've bought the planner. Downloaded the checklist. Organized the pantry. Listened to the podcast. Started again on Monday. And a lot of it was good advice.
The problem was never that there weren't enough answers.
The problem was that all the answers lived in different places.
Money over here. Home over there. Health somewhere else. Time. Relationships. Identity.
And you were the one expected to hold all the pieces together.
That's why Schweet Living isn't one more fix for one isolated part of your life. We help the parts talk to each other.
Because your life isn't six separate problems. It's one life.
Here's what I want you to know:
And most importantly:
You're not broken.
You're buried.
... and buried things can be uncovered.
One room. One rhythm. One faithful step at a time.
