When I started training with Ashley in early July, I didn't think I'd be writing a testimonial only after six weeks of coaching.

I guess I just assumed that the testimonial comes at the end once the big goal has been achieved.

However, I've been caught off guard and impressed by the positive results so far and thought I'd share.

My overall goal right now is to bulk up and build muscle.

While I've seen progress as it relates to this long-term goal,

this isn't what has surprised me the most about the coaching process so far.

Instead, what I wasn't expecting to experience was the major emotional and mindset benefits. First, I have way more energy

now and my mood is generally consistently positive. This is from Ashley upping my daily calorie intake,

giving my body the fuel that it needs to run properly. It is now clear that I was chronically

under eating and underfeeding my body without even realizing it.

I was stuck in a cycle of plateaued body fat and weight loss, which led to me erroneously thinking that the answer was to eat less.

Second, Ashley has provided me with a clear, detailed, and doable plan, which was tailored to my personality type for me to reach my goals.

Having a clear focus has helped me find my center and has helped me drown out all the noise,

such as wondering what is wrong with my hormones, metabolism, work ethic, etc.

I'm honestly shocked at the piece I have found by simply having a well-informed plan, one that I feel confident with and can trust.

Finally, during our coaching calls, Ashley has helped cultivate an atmosphere of curiosity about my behavior and thought patterns related to diet and exercise.

She has also introduced concrete, actionable ways to change behaviors and shift my

perspective. This has increased my confidence that I can act and think in ways that will help me

reach my long-term goals. Collectively, I feel emotionally free and at peace in my relationship

with diet and exercise, and I wasn't expecting this from the coaching process.

What a testimonial.

That is literally six weeks into one-on-one coaching.
