Hello!

I'm Ashley, and I own Look Beneath the Surface with my husband. 

My goal for this business is that it is a helpful resource for you to learn about ways to better care for the one and only body you have.

I've been married to my high school sweetheart for seven years, and we're currently living in Maui. My husband is my everything and truly the greatest man I've ever known. 

I love helping people break free from yo-yo dieting and restriction. My specialty is in sustainable fat loss, body re-composition, and all things holistic health. I've worked with 100's of women 1-1 in their quest for getting to the best version of themselves - whether if that’s losing fat, gaining lean muscle, improving gut and hormone health, working on mindset around food, or just overall health.

My health journey started as a little girl. I had an unhealthy relationship with food and was never taught how to properly fuel my body. I thought getting to my goals meant I had to starve, workout like crazy, and be miserable. I became afraid of food and fluctuated between starving myself, overeating, and trying every diet out there. After 7 years of struggle, I was able to fully heal from these things. This led to my passion to help others find healing. I ended up studying dietetics and nutrition from MSU (still in process) as well as got my certifications in nutrition, personal training, cf level 1, gut health, and hormonal health. I truly have discovered the importance of feeding our body what it needs while also having a healthy relationship with food.

I hope this page can provide helpful tools and resources for you.

If you made it this far, go ahead and keep reading below about what my coaching looks like.

What is Look Beneath Coaching?... and what isn't it?

Coaching at Look Beneath the Surface is a personalized one-on-one approach that focuses on sustainable health and NOT quick fixes. We like to take a functional and holistic perspective, taking into account individual backgrounds, needs, and circumstances.  

What our Health Coaching IS:

  • Tailored Approach: Look Beneath the Surface offers a customized approach to meet the unique needs and goals of each individual, fully taking into account their specific health challenges and lifestyle.
  • ​Nutrition and Exercise Guidance: Our health coaches are certified and trained to offer personalized guidance on nutrition and exercise. Nutrition plans and advice are tailored based on individual needs, dietary preferences, and long-term goals; exercise plans are also designed to accelerate individual goals and modified to suit any preferred workout style, equipment, and injury modifications.
  • ​Mindset and Belief Work: Our health coaching dives deeply into addressing limiting beliefs and fosters a positive mindset to support long-term behavior change and growth.
  • ​Holistic View: We look beyond surface symptoms! Our coaches are trained to consider factors like hormonal imbalances, gut health, autoimmune conditions, and stress management to address the root causes of health issues.
  • ​Empowerment: Our health coaching empowers members to take an active role in their health journey to set them up for success in the LONG run and feel equipped to continue living a healthy lifestyle.
  • ​Accountability: Our health coaches are here to provide support and hold clients accountable to their goals and help them stay on track even when life doesn't look perfect (because when does it?!).

What our Health Coaching ISN'T:

  • A Quick Fix: Our coaching solutions are not about offering short-term solutions or temporary fixes but aim for long-term, sustainable improvements that require intention.
  • ​A Magic Pill: While our coaches may suggest specific supplement recommendations based on individual needs, we do not endorse nor support pills or injections to magically get a new body. Our coaching centers on encouraging lifestyle and nutritional changes through consistent efforts.
  • ​A Passive Experience: Our coaching requires active participation and intention from our clients (with your coach's support!); real results take effort! We do tailor our coaching programs to fit various lifestyles and busy schedules to make those efforts reasonable and sustainable for each individual.
  • ​Medical Treatment: While our health coaches are certified and highly experienced in functional, holistic, and mindset health - including labwork - that can complement medical treatment, we are not a replacement for professional medical advice or diagnosis.
To sum up our approach to health coaching at Look Beneath the Surface, we offer a collaborative health journey focused on the unique bio individual. Our goal is to empower each client to make positive and lasting changes in their body, mind, and overall health. Our coaching centers on highly personalized nutritional and exercise guidance, mindset work, and lifestyle improvements, to foster lasting well-being, confidence, and health from the inside out for those committed to their healing and self-improvement journey.
