This work helps solve problems worth tens of millions of dollars.
The numbers are hard to ignore. The World Economic Forum estimates poor mental health costs the global economy between $2 and $9 trillion every year.
Gallup's 2025 data across 144 countries shows 40% of people report high anxiety on any given day. 71% of employees globally are disengaged.
Depression alone costs U.S. employers $187.8 billion annually in absenteeism, healthcare and lost productivity.
Leadership development is a $370 billion industry. Workplace wellness is a $57 billion industry. And yet the numbers keep climbing.
Because the root problem isn't being addressed.
People aren't struggling because they lack skill or motivation. They're stuck — in stress, in survival mode, in patterns that no amount of strategy or willpower can shift.
This work teaches people how to change in great ways — and gives organizations the results they've been looking for.
About the Work
This work helps solves problems worth tens of millions of dollars
Hi, I'm Ashley
Hi, I'm Ashley
For nearly two decades, I've worked to understand how people work, how they get stuck — and how they change.
I've worked with purposeful professionals around the world and organizations like Nike and Google, teaching neuroscience-based tools for lasting positive change.
Most self-help and leadership training ignores what neuroscience tells us: by age 35, 95% of who we are is unconscious patterns and hardwired beliefs — quietly running the show. That same 95% is also untapped potential, innovation and creativity.
True change doesn't require more willpower or mindset work. It needs neuroscience.
When people learn to change at that level, everything shifts — one domino that knocks all the others into place. Joy returns, performance accelerates, innovation flows, clarity resumes, leaders emerge, and potential ignites.
I believe we need more people attached to things they love, serving the greater good, and pushing the edge of possibility.
A beloved mentor once told me years ago: "maximum positive impact" — and I couldn't shake it.
