WHERE SHE WAS BEFORE
When Jen first reached out, she was operating from a state of constant output — scattered across daily, weekly, and quarterly efforts to grow her business. She was doing “all the right things” but quietly feeling frantic underneath. Though she came for business consulting, what she truly needed was a deeper recalibration of her relationship to work, identity, and pace. She chose to work with Ashleigh for 6 months. 

WHAT SHE THOUGHT SHE NEEDED
At first, Jen believed the solution was more structure: the right checklist, the right marketing activities, the right sales strategies to bring in more inquiries. But beneath the strategy was something much more tender — years of holding it all without knowing how to truly hold herself. We embarked on reorienting her daily life towards the way she wanted to feel each and every week, even during big pushes at work. 

WHAT SURPRISED HER ABOUT THE WORK
What Jen didn’t expect was that alongside business shifts, she would receive practices, pacing, and personal rituals that helped her feel safe in her own body and business again. Together, we mapped her past patterns through life/business timeline mapping, challenged her relationship with overworking, and built rhythms that honored both her ambition and her aliveness.

A PEEK AT JEN'S EXPERIENCE

THE QUIET WINS
Jen began to experience her days differently — not rushing to check things off, but actually inhabiting her work with more presence. She started integrating pleasure into her routines — working from the porch with a drink she loved, ending her days truly off, not just away from the screen but grounded in her life.

This is what’s Ashleigh calls sacred domesticity. Jen integrated more boundaries into her life for business, conversations with clients, added on team members, delegated much of her life and business out of her hands with a sense of trust and self-leadership that was beautiful to witness. She stopped performing peace and started living from it. She stopped expecting every portion of her life to be integrated with her work; she chose to create space for separation instead of just integration. 

WHAT LIFE LOOKED LIKE AFTER THE WORK
Jen now moves through her business with a sense of steady leadership, not frantic energy. She evaluates her life through the lens of peace and pleasure — not just productivity or profit (though those grew, too). Her work became less about managing her business and more about inhabiting her life fully, both as a leader and as a woman. A note: this work was simultaneous alongside business consulting for Jen, during Ashleigh's time of leading The Cheetah Company®.
