1. Episode #13: Without accountability you stop. Deborah Brown-Volkman 24:02

At 6 years old, Ashley already had a bad body Image.  She remembers crying to her mom when asked to put a leotard on. “I don’t look as good as the other girls.” Ashley dieted her way through life into her 20’s. She felt out of control when it came to food.

Ashley was a tax accountant, a profession that demanded long hours at specified times throughout the year. Eating poorly was part of the job. “It’s ok” Ashley would tell herself. “I’ll start my diet again on Monday.”

Monday came and went.

In order to gain control of her eating, Ashley started an Instagram account detailing her journey to lose weight. Her account gained in popularity and the questions/comments rolled in. This was a sign to change her life and her profession.

Today Ashley is a Certified Holistic Health Coach and coaches women from all over the world. She believes it is absolutely possible to lose weight without being on a diet. Daily accountability and support are key to reaching your health and wellness goals.

Ashley is a mom with 3 kids. One of her greatest passions is helping others succeed in finding confidence in their bodies because for so long, she hated her own.  She knows all too well how awful it feels to be stuck in a vicious cycle of yo-yo dieting and how freeing it feels to be on the other side.
