Welcome to The Unhurried Year

a 12-month 1:1 coaching series to slow down and shift the patterns that are repeating in your body and keeping you from experiencing the aliveness and success you so deeply deserve.

Here, you will be held in an unhurried space, as we really sit with a pattern or story that seems to be on repeat in your body and work. With expert coaching, somatic support and intuitive guidance, we will gently shift that pattern into a way forward brimming with support, presence and care instead.

You desire a business and a life that feels expansive and impactful and you know that in order to get there, something inside of you needs to shift.

We’ve all felt that space inside of us where the body interacts with our businesses and our lives. It’s visceral, felt and embodied. Where we notice our deeply held stories, beliefs and patterns like they’re lightening bolts in a summer sky bright and burning before us.

We all deal with that awareness in different ways. Maybe by getting entangled in it, maybe by over-identifying with it, maybe by avoiding it completely or maybe by over-strategizing it.

But there comes these moments where we realize something needs to change. That out entire being is calling for a pause. Where we are not okay anymore circling the same things, repeating the same patterns, and telling the same story. And a part of us is emerging and saying, “I want more than this.”

It’s this rebellion against stuckness and automatic responses.
It’s a reclamation of intentionality and self-leadership.

It’s right here where we so often need an unhurried and gentle space to lay it all out, be held, hear together and create a path forward that feels liberatory.

For the last five years, I’ve been working intensively with entrepreneurs at the intersection of their internal worlds and their businesses, both gently shifting the inner landscape and patterns of the nervous system as well as mapping out business strategy that attuned to them for deeper sustainability and impact.

And one thing I know to be true is that the patterns, stories and beliefs that we tend to encircle hold the most precious parts of us. That they are not something to be hacked, optimized or solved, but they are the richest and wisest guides holding our deepest desires, needs, and hopes.

That to rush past them is not an option. They are to be sat with, heard and understood. And that requires a gentle, unhurried facilitation where we can cup the faces of these places within us and see them soften.

What’s holding you back from all that you want in your work deserves devoted attention and wholehearted invitation so you can experience shifting that is attuned and lasting.

As soon as I got on a call with Ashley, I knew I was held, seen, and heard. If you are willing and open to slowing down, and integrating inner work into you business flow, working with Ashley is deeply beneficial.

Often when we are being called to own our work or lives in a deeper or more profound way, we feel the encircling of these things and that is a time to not bypass them, but create space for them to be witnessed, so we can choose a new integrated path forward in that emanates leadership.

The Unhurried Year is a twelve month coaching series where we will sit with, soften towards and gently shift a repeating pattern or story in your body and business.

I will sit with you in a way that is deeply attuned and because of that we may play with a myriad of approaches that will make sense for you in whatever is emerging. These may include things like deep listening, mindfulness, nervous system support, parts work, or slowed-down business strategy.

I am deeply committed to being with you in your experience and helping you intuitively shift what is asking for your attention.

When is the last time you had space deeply held for your body in the presence of your work? That’s what I am here to do.

Working with Ashley has really shifted my perspective of what's possible and how different (in the best way) business can feel. It doesn't have to be from this frantic, hustle energy but can feel so much more gentle and grounded. Our sessions are so powerful; the perspectives she shares, the guided questions that help reveal and uncover so much, and her intuition and sense about what could be shifted helps to make so much progress. Everyone needs the magic and power of Ashley in their life.

Examples of Patterns We Can Explore and Bring Shifting To

We can ultimately sit with anything that might come up, but I want to give you some examples of things that show up most often that might be inviting your attention and shifting. Also, a lot of these are different ways of seeing the same thing, but the way you interpret them might be very specific.

Self-Protection

These are the ways that you keep yourself safe and can often show up in things like perfectionism, people-pleasing, overworking, blurred boundaries, procrastination, avoiding compliments, compulsive comparison, etc.

Nervous System

These are the automatic nervous system patterns that tend to repeat in your work such as feeling chronically frozen, going into hiding when it comes to sales, hypervigilance with your clients or coping with business by periods of shutting down.

Held Stories

These are those stories that repeat in your internal world and might show up in repeated, predictable ways around your value, how you’re perceived, what kind of success you’re capable of, your identity, or the things that are ‘inevitable’ for you.

Ashley will teach you how to find a strategy for your business that is sustainable and effective by learning to attune to and trust your own inner wisdom which is so incredibly empowering.

I’m Ashley.

Certified coach, gentle educator, architect of spaces of care and a wholehearted believer in you.

If we haven’t met yet, I would offer you a cup of tea, a blanket or a hammock real quick. But if a cold swim, dancing under the stars or writing poetry is more your vibe, I get down with all those things too.

I created these sessions because this is the space I believe we need more of — slowed down and attuned, gentle and compassionate places where we can be witnessed and shift. That the stories and patterns we want to disrupt and change can experience that in an environment of depth and care.

I am equal parts compassionate witness, powerful coach, slowed down facilitator, gentle creator, bold truth teller and poetic soul, and I would be absolutely honoured to support you inside of one of The Unhurried Year.

As you sit with your work, where might you want it to feel easier? Where might you want it to feel less entangling or burdensome? Where might you want to feel a more embodied sense of self-leadership?

ASKED QUESTIONS

 
  • The coaching series can go from six to twelve months. Because we are working with the body and the nervous system, we want to take an unhurried approach and honour your pace.

  • I take two clients at a time in this offer because of the space held for the client.

Being supported by Ashley is like being held in a safe cocoon while you are prompted to feel into your own brilliance and next steps. Her gentle, slow approach to business felt like the balm I needed to come alive. I knew I didn’t have to push or be something I wasn’t, which gave my whole self permission to slow down and listen in. Each session was like a gentle nudge to get out of the mind and into the body.
