What’s Your Story?
Hi, I’m Ashley
This is my story…
I’m a multidisciplinary founder, storyteller, and healer who weaves together strategy and spirituality. I support Black-led, women-led, mission-driven businesses, social enterprises, and heart-centered individuals to reclaim their narratives so they can lead with clarity, integrity, authenticity, and humanity.
My work exists because I know personally and professionally the power of story. The stories we tell about ourselves and our work determine how we lead, how we connect, how we raise funds to support our communities, build technology, educate future generations, and imagine what’s possible for the future of humanity and the planet.
At its core, my work helps individuals and organizations lead with the heart, strategy, and self-trust, so that they can build businesses, regenerative systems, and stories that honor the full human experience and contribute to collective liberation.
Before launching my business, I worked in Investment Banking, in compliance, where old structures and rigor were valued, and “worth” was measured by how well one assimilated into systems rooted in exploitation and exclusion.
As a Black American woman who navigated questions of identity and belonging, I spent years living and working across different countries in search of a place where I could exist more fully as myself. I built my career in Banking whilst carrying the weight of anxiety, depression, and systemic fatigue. This exclusionary professional environment, alongside growing up in a household shaped by narcissistic and abusive dynamics, created a personal experience that mirrored a broader societal reality for many Black women: to be “enough” was treated as conditionally earned, rather than inherently possessed.
Since 2016, I had been searching externally for validation of something I already carried internally. Through healing, spiritual practice, and the slow dismantling of internalized systems of oppression, I began to reconnect with my own worth, voice, and purpose.
In 2020, I had reached a breaking point, and something clicked.
These external institutions and systems we move through are designed to slowly erode most of our sovereignty, agency, and ability to know ourselves beyond what we can produce and consume. The more we pour into these systems, the less capacity we have to create, lead, and innovate in ways rooted in authenticity, integrity, liberation, and collectivism.
From Investment Banking, I transitioned into marketing and branding, but over time, my work evolved beyond automation, trends, and performance metrics.
Today, I guide individuals and organizations in taking back control of their stories, becoming more human with clearer messaging, grounded in their values, and aligned in how they inherently show up in the world.
Along with strategic narrative and branding work, I also offer healing as a psychic, Sekhem healer, and yoga teacher. I approach this work with a deep respect for lineage, humility, and a decolonized, integrated spiritual practice. I center facilitation rather than authority.
My role is to support individuals and organizations doing meaningful work in the world, to restore authorship over their lives, missions, and the future we are collectively building.
The Thoughtful Thorough Approach
What truly differentiates my work is the integration of strategy and soul, grounded in lived experience. Many consultants focus on branding, fundraising, or content through the lens of psychology, performance, and market behavior. Many healers offer intuitive or wellness-based support. My work lives in the space where these worlds meet.
For years, I have been in active practice with my own voice, story, and brand, healing, refining, testing, and evolving how I show up in the world. This work has not been theoretical. It has been lived, embodied, and continuously informed by what resonates, what builds trust, and what creates meaningful connection over time.
Through intuitive insight, spiritual grounding, and clear strategic thinking, I help clients create work that is both structured and effective, while remaining deeply human, values-led, heart-centered, and aligned with their truth. This is not about selling or performance. It is about cultivating trust, honoring shared values, and creating narratives that feel real, responsible, and alive.
As a healer, I remain committed to my own ongoing healing and reflection. I approach spiritual work with humility, respect for lineage, and a conscious effort to decolonize and embody my practices, understanding that this work is not about authority or mastery, but about facilitation, listening, and care. I bring that same awareness into my strategic work, recognizing that integrity and impact require continual self-examination.
Thoughtful Thorough is a space where professional growth, personal healing, and collective liberation meet. When you work with me, you are not simply hiring a consultant or a healer; you are entering a collaborative, conscious partnership. Your brand, project, or personal journey is treated as a living, breathing entity, with its own voice, value system, and role to play in the world.
Services I Offer
I work on a full-day, hourly, or project basis to craft strategic storytelling and funding frameworks, or create content narratives that reflect who you are and where your organisation is heading.
My day rate is based on a full day dedicated to doing a variety of bespoke work, including research, audits, providing tailored recommendations, policy development, and impact reporting, to strengthen your brand identity, charity goals, digital presence, and overall strategy. You’ll receive a customized action plan and bespoke outputs designed for lasting impact, including support with grant research, writing, and month-to-month content planning.
My hourly rate applies to project-based content and copy support, including website copy, thought leadership pieces, social media content, newsletters, video scripts, and strategic reports.
Sekhem Reiki is an ancient energy healing practice that is similar to reiki, discovered by Dr. Usui, where I will channel high frequency, quantum universal energy through my hands to parts of your body that invoke deeper healing across your mind, body, spirit, and energy.
The practice’s origins were channeled to Earth, and first discovered in Ancient Egypt. In the 20th century, it was rechanneled by Patrick Zeigler and Helen Belot.
This energy healing modality is powerful, universal and transformative which can allow me to heal locally and at a distance, online and in-person.
You’ve done the study, you know the archetypes, but do you trust your inner voice that speaks through them?
My mentorship is a sacred, judgment-free container designed to be the bridge between "knowing the cards" and speaking their language. I do not lecture you through this process, I only act a guide and a mirror while we work on real-time spreads to uncover your unique, bespoke relationship with the cards.
Together, we will:
Dismantle your fear and self doubt and quiet the noise of self-criticism.
Enhance your "inner voice", learning to distinguish between your intuition and your ego.
Shift from study into practice, moving your readings from static definitions into a living, breathing narrative.
This is about reclaiming your sovereignty as a reader and building the grounded confidence to trust what you see.
Designed to offer profound insights and guide you toward personal growth. Each session is a space for self-reflection, where I help you navigate life’s challenges, clarify your path, and uncover hidden opportunities. Whether you’re seeking guidance on relationships, career, personal development, or the year ahead, I provide thoughtful, compassionate, and empowering support.
My approach is rooted in authenticity, encouraging you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself, which will help you gain a deeper understanding of your situation.
Designed to bring employees or wider groups back into alignment with their bodies, minds, and spirits.
Rooted in the original principles of yoga, these sessions blend meditation, breathwork, and mindful movement. Each class is tailored to create a peaceful, focused atmosphere, allowing participants to reset, recharge, and restore balance amidst their busy lives. I work with organizations, retreat centers, and event spaces that truly value the holistic benefits of yoga, seeking to foster an environment of mindful well-being and transformational growth.
Designed for organizations, creative events, and exhibitions, I provide meaningful tarot readings that spark curiosity and thoughtful dialogue. I typically offer 5–10 minute readings using a 3-card spread, though additional cards may arise to inform the guidance.
At events, whether private or group settings, I create a respectful, engaging, and thoughtful atmosphere. My readings help open new perspectives, foster conversations, and align with organizations dedicated to innovation, creativity, diversity, and positive change.
I typically charge by the hour and number of participants. Listed is my base rate.
