Balanced & Connected Coaching

While society and businesses want you to focus on June being pride month, let’s not forget that June is and that deserves attention!

It’s taken me a long time to understand masculinity, true masculinity. I had such a false perspective. I was part of the problem, still am on some days. Now being a mom to a son I HAVE to learn and do better. I can not let my past experiences or trauma affect that relationship.

I am here to learn, to love, to grow. I’m not an expert when it comes to men 😂 but I have had plenty of experiences with men who suffer from mental health issues and or substance abuse disorders. I pray that seeking help doesn’t feel like a burden, or a sense of failure. I pray that we as women can be more compassionate, healing, and loving to the men in our lives.

If you need help, motivation, encouragement, I suggest reaching out to any of these accounts, or at least giving them a follow:

Hi 👋🏻
It’s me Ashley.
I’m here. Still loving to coach 🫶🏻😊
My schedule may have changed but my passion has not.
I love supporting women during transformational stages of life. I love supporting a woman trying to heal. Working toward growth. Finding themselves. Holding their hand as they walk closer to Jesus and themselves.
It’s mental health awareness month,
How are you caring for yourself?

Dance moms, Impractical Jokers, Shrek, tap house, ice cream, starbs, and chicken enchilada kinda weekend 👯‍♀️

2024: connection 🫶🏻
✨
Every year I choose a word. It didn’t come to me until around 11:55 pm last night.
✨
As I laid in bed feeling a little bummed nothing stuck out to me God laid it on my heart. I need to connect more. Connect more to Him. More to my body. More to others. I feel I lost that this year.
✨
I want genuine and real connections. 2023 was filled with a lot of questions as I continued to loose friendships. Began to feel disconnected from my church groups, from God, my business and sadly myself. I checked out when it came to taking care of my health.
✨
So this year I just want to feel present and connected to everything that is in alignment with what God has planned for me.
Happy New Year

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

If you can’t see a light at the end of the tunnel, be the light ✨ (a profound caption)

Things I’ve learned to put into practice:
Opening my heart
Following through
Being obedient
Trying new things
Being myself
Being vulnerable
Letting others in

Today I got to meet some amazing new women because of all those changes 🥰. What a great Saturday morning with beautiful weather for our hike! 🙏🏻

God always answers 💕
If you can’t see it, you are looking for your desires not His will.

When you have to warn everyone about your best friend because she’s crazy protective of you 👯‍♀️
Wild that we are moms. Taking our kids to the beach.
Life long friendships are rare. Not everyone gets to experience them. Hold them close. Even when they get on your nerves 🤪

Hi 👋🏻.
Yes, I have been gone. I took a break from this Instagram account.
A lot has happened. A lot is happening.
I value authenticity, and always want to be honest and authentic, but I just couldn’t bring myself to do that these last couple of months.
I couldn’t bring myself to share how stressed and overwhelmed I am feeling with school.
How my mind could not step into coaching mode. How I felt like I lost my purpose because I was “failing” at managing my own life. I was in no way feeling “balanced and connected” . How could I possibly be a coach?!
So I stepped away and shut down.
Between school, re gen, single parenting group, and serving at church I exhausted myself emotionally. I had nothing left to give.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all the things I’m doing, but I was/am suffocating.
This semester is ending and although I’m heading right into another class, I feel I have some breathing room.
Processing that this is a season. Possibly a long one.
Thanks to those who have reached out, checked on me, have supported me, and who care about my presence both in person and online 💕

Happy Mother’s Day 💕💕

Ok hear me out….
There is something about sitting on the floor that makes you feel like a kid again.
My body however, not always a fan 😆

This week is our spring break and it is so nice to just be home on a Monday 💕

Also 100% ready for some sunshine ☀️

Currently talking to Mother Nature to see why she’s so gloomy.

How are you going to start the week?
Gloomy? Tired? Stressed? Anxious?
Or
Energized! Hopeful! Rested! Excited!

What is something you can do to get you to the place of starting your week right!
Examples:
Take a nap
Play
Meal prep
Read
Meditate
Go on a walk (even if it’s raining!)
Take a bath

Do something that refreshes your soul and is going to give you rest & energy, not take it away 💕✨
