How To Level Up Your Life After A Break-Up With Sarah Ashcroft
Over a decade ago, Sarah started a blog called That Pommie Girl to help her in her job interviews, 10 years later she has over a million followers on Instagram and has built her brand SLA The Label to the point where it now turns over millions each year. Growing her business has taken a huge amount of resilience, but in this episode, we really delved into how that has helped her over the last few months when she’s been dealing with the break-up of her 7-year relationship. If you’re going through heartbreak right now, and you’re looking to fall in love with yourself again, you NEED to listen to this one.

I was with my ex for 7 years from 21-28. He broke up with me and it was THE BEST thing that could have happened. Literally every part of my life improved afterwards. I’m 35 now and still grateful for the break up

I’ve been with him for 7 years from 22-29 He just broke up with me a month and a half ago and it feels like life is hopeless, so much pain especially in the second month, so much self-blaming and regret But your comment is very reassuring. I know deep down that this is exactly what I need. It’s the best thing that could happen. But rn it’s so hard to see that. Thanks for the reminder!

@@Rawan-vg5euI felt exactly the same way. It is like a grieving process because they were in our lives for a long time. And it sounds like a cliché, but everything happens for a reason - The universe is making way for something so much better for you now! It takes time but I guarantee once you heal you’ll see everything much clearer. My 30s have been a million times better than my 20s! ❤️

I have a chronic illness that can flare up due to stress, with my ex i was having flare ups literally every single month and my doctors couldn't explain why my health had gone downhill so fast! The month we broke up i had one flare up (he dumped me while I was in the ER in severe pain). After of breakup i didn't have a flare for 6 months!! He was the problem, he was the stressor, and once that stressor was gone my health improved drastically. My body was trying to tell me and i wasnt listening.
Sarah is such a queen, this is the universe redirecting her 🥰

I was with my partner for 12 years (I’m 32), we were engaged then suddenly he decided he didn’t want to be with me anymore. It totally agree that the first month or two is the worst thing ever and I felt like I’d never get over it. You have to reevaluate your whole life and it’s so gut wrenching. But then you do just get over it 🤷🏼♀️ I’ve now realised it was the best thing to ever happen to me, my life has changed for the better in so many ways. I still have moments of sadness but they are so fleeting now.
I worked with Sarah in one of the fast fashion brands back in the day and she was so so lovely, this being recommended was such a throwback. Glad she's thriving!!
i am in the exact same situation, single after 11 years. My mindset is better than ever, i dont need to change, i am a good person.
I literally rewatched this twice, to take notes down, and I'm sending it to my therapist so we can dissect in my next session because this interview had so many gold nuggets of wisdom!!!
Another great interview 🎉 lov Sarah and I feel in my bones they are some great thinks coming towards her ❤
Loved this. Power to you, Sarah.
grace is a yapperrrrrr, i want to hear more from sarah!!

I love to hear from Graces pov. maybe consume Sarah’s content if you prefer
This really helped me! Thank you for sharing❤
amazing advice, so empowering ❤
Loved this 🤍
I think what I loved most about this episode is that we also got to hear a lot more from and learn more about you Grace. And "I just find that so interesting" 🤭🥰, love it.
Fantastic episode. Thank you both Did get a bit confused at saying how a breakup is almost always a good thing, how should that proposition be perceived by those in relationships 😬
Off topic but the skin+me that Grace talks about at the start of this video… it ACTUALLY WORKS. It’s the only thing that helped me with my acne I’ve also literally not stopped telling people about it. Couldn’t recommend it enough
Love this! Sarah is amazing ❤️
Great interview! I was a bit distracted by that gorgeous TALA shirt though 👀...coming soon?
wow such a great episode!

hang in there, you got this! 🙏
where's the music???
Retail is a challenging job teaches you to be creative n hard worker
I adore these type of videos but sla also has a design team but still copies from smaller brands in England
👏👏
Grace talks way too much, she just goes on and on and could get to the point so much quicker. Let Sarah talk … that’s what we are here for.
