This work is created from and for the heart, and to help lead humanity forward.
Hi, I'm Ashley
I help high-achieving people (and brands) gain complete clarity to create what they want in life with less struggle or confusion.
My clients are usually at some crossroads - something has changed, or needs to change, for there to be greater transformation, success, fulfilment, joy and well-being.
Maybe life is good, but you know it could be better. You've tried a lot of things to create what's next, but those pesky beliefs keep showing up blocking the growth and success you want and need.
There is a path forward.
Master NLP Practitioner, Health Coach and Mindfulness Teacher since 2008.
"The inability to make the changes you want isn’t a character flaw. There is truly nothing wrong with you".
Most of the blocks and limitations we experience are encoded unconsciously in the brain - it’s the stuff you feel and experience, but can’t seem to pinpoint what it is or how to change it.
This can be a frustrating, costly and a heart-breaking experience, but there is a way forward that doesn't require you to jump out of planes, drink ayahuasca or dance with snake charmers (unless you want to do that).
The human brain is similar to a smartphone, with specific code running in the background, that doesn't update on its own. That code is largely responsible for what we experience in life.
As a Master NLP practitioner, I use techniques and tools, not theories and ideas, to help revise and update the code running in your brain so that you can create the life you want (and need) with less struggle and confusion and more clarity.
Work with me and we'll focus on the 5% of things in your life that will get you 95% of the results, and bypass the need for willpower as that's exhausting and unsustainable.
People always ask, "Hey Ash, how did you get into doing this Coaching and NLP work... work?"
In 2008, I survived a near-death bike accident that left me with a broken clavicle and cheek, and three months of severe vertigo. I was in school for ESL to travel and teach, but it lacked meaning and purpose (for me).
This was an extremely challenging time, and I found myself at a significant crossroads in life, feeling very unsure about what to do next or how I was going to get there. The bike accident was a push forward quite literally.
During that time, something became very clear...
In The Beginning
I quickly realized that when we change what's going on inside, everything outside changes as a result.
I started as a health coach in 2008, but it was the direct feedback from clients that encouraged me to find what's most effective, kind and supportive for lasting growth and change.
This significant a'ha changed the course of my career and that's when I became a master NLP practitioner.
The Journey Forward
After a year sabbatical and lots of change, I've found my home in the mountains of Colorado with my husband.
I work with clients here in Boulder, Colorado and globally too, using my NLP and coaching experience to help them to gain absolute clarity, change their mindset and create new belief systems to achieve what they dream of.
I'm often traveling to host retreats for clients, learning how to fly fish or hiking very tall mountains as I'm happiest outside.
I prefer analog to digital, salty to sweet and foreign to known. I'm studying Family Constellation work from Bert Hellinger to further help my clients have the best outcome in life, love and business.

Took a year sabbatical to question what's normal and to push back on pop culture. I grew up in Miami, Florida and it made me question what matters most quite early (thankfully).
