🌿I’m Ashley. And I didn’t build this from theory. I built it from real life.

For a long time, my life looked like strength on the outside…
and overload on the inside.

I was the mom who handled everything.
The one people counted on.
The one who kept going even when life kept hitting.

Kids. Work. Money. Loss. Grief. Healing. Building.
All at the same time.

And somewhere in the middle of carrying all of that, I realized something:

👉🏽I wasn’t just tired.
👉🏽I was living in survival mode.
👉🏽And I couldn’t keep living like that.

Defining My Way Academy™ was born in that season.

Not when life was easy.
Not when everything was figured out.

But when I knew I needed my life to feel different.


🌱Why this space exists

I created Defining My Way Academy™ for the mom who is tired of carrying everything.

The mom who:
• 😮💨feels overwhelmed more days than not
• 🌀has a full life but still feels disconnected
• 🤍handles everyone else’s needs while hers stay last
• 🌫knows something has to change… but doesn’t know where to start

Because too many women are surviving their lives instead of actually living them.

And I know that feeling personally.


🧭My work is simple at its core

I help overwhelmed women who are tired of carrying everything get back in control of their lives so they can build clarity, stability, and income — without losing themselves.

Not by throwing more on their plate.

But by guiding them through a real journey:

🌿Reset — when life feels heavy
🎯Refocus — when it’s time to organize and stabilize
💰Rise — when they’re ready to build security and income

Same woman.
Different season.


🤍A little more about me (and why I understand)

I’m a mom first. Always.

I’ve raised my kids through seasons of struggle, rebuilding, growth, sports schedules, late nights, early mornings, and real-life pressure.

I’ve navigated:
• grief and major life changes
• financial rebuilding
• emotional healing
• education and career growth
• entrepreneurship while parenting

Not from a distance.
From inside it.

I know what it’s like to sit in the car after practice pickup and just breathe before going home.

I know what it’s like to be “the strong one” and still feel unsure, tired, and overwhelmed.

And I also know what it feels like to slowly rebuild a life that feels calmer, clearer, and more intentional.

That journey is what shaped this brand.


🌸What makes Defining My Way™ different

This isn’t about hustle for the sake of hustle.

And it’s not about pretending motherhood isn’t heavy.

This space blends:
• emotional healing
• real-life organization
• practical systems
• and financial empowerment

Because moms don’t just need motivation.

We need support.
We need structure.
We need options.
We need stability.
We need space to become who we’re growing into.

Everything I create is built to help women:

✨feel less overwhelmed
✨think more clearly
✨organize their lives
✨rebuild confidence
✨and create income and stability in a way that fits real motherhood


🏠What you’ll find here

Inside Defining My Way™, everything flows through three phases:

🌿RESET

For the mom who feels heavy, scattered, and emotionally tired
• emotional clarity
• self-reconnection
• starting-over support

🎯REFOCUS

For the mom who’s ready to get her life together
• time systems
• planning tools
• routines that fit real life

💰RISE

For the mom who wants stability and something of her own
• money clarity
• financial tools
• income pathways

So you’re never guessing where you belong.

You can always start where you are.


🤍My heart behind this work

I don’t believe women are meant to disappear inside responsibility.

I don’t believe strength should require self-abandonment.

And I don’t believe survival mode should be anyone’s permanent home.

I believe women, especially moms, deserve:
• peace in their minds
• stability in their homes
• confidence in their decisions
• and the freedom to build lives that support them too

Defining My Way™ exists to help make that possible.


🌱If you’re here…

If your life feels heavy.
If you’re tired of carrying everything.
If you’re craving clarity, stability, or a new direction.

You’re not here by accident.

And you don’t have to figure this season out alone.

Welcome to my corner of the internet. I’m glad you’re here. Let’s build your peace, your plan, and your paid life—your way 💼💕
