Hi, I’m Ashley.
I am deeply committed to helping individuals and groups build strong, healthy relationships in various settings, including homes, workplaces, and educational environments. I use and teach practical tools like compassion, forgiveness, grace, mindfulness, and collaboration, all infused with elements of joy and play. I delight in helping people connect more deeply with others, and with themselves.
I specialize in creating memorable experiences for both small gatherings and large-scale events, as well as offering individual and family coaching. My adaptability ensures that my programs are effective for any group size, always focusing on skills that promote connection, harmony, and joy.
My innovative approach empowers people to develop more supportive and understanding relationships, guiding them on a journey toward emotional intelligence and relational competence. Over the past 30+ years, I’ve developed and practiced a broad range of skills that have positively impacted the lives of thousands of children and adults, and I’ve had the joy of working with more than 300 companies, non-profits, schools, and universities.
While my passion is my work, I also enjoy hiking, kayaking, travel, and seeking experiences that complement my professional journey. I value a playful and purpose-driven life, embracing both my career and personal interests as essential to my mission of spreading joy and peace.
