    ASHLEIGH WELCH, MBA | CERTIFIED COACH

    Girls Around You Create Drama,

    But They're Seen.
    And You're Forgotten
    Sound Familiar?

    The Women I Work With Are Done Drifting

    They’ve supported their husband, encouraged their friends, been the strong one for their siblings, and they’re sick of being the one who’s always “fine”

    They’ve been raised to be independent, self-sufficient, highly capable, but whilst girls creating drama get attention, they’re being forgotten. 

    And they’re done. 

    Women who decide to work with me are ready to choose their next chapter properly — whether that’s starting a family, building a business, navigating a relationship, relocating, or simply refusing to settle for a life that looks good but doesn’t feel like theirs. 

    In The Next Chapter I help you get clear, be seen and build a life that actually feels chosen.

    This Next Chapter Is Yours,

    If You Drift…

    • You'll be "fine" whilst other people get support and you get overlooked
    • You'll find 27 new ways to explain yourself and "finally they'll get it", only to be disappointed again weeks later
    • You'll keep pretending you don't know what you want and justifying it by making sure everyone else is okay because you're a "good" person
    • You'll continue to support other people's dreams whilst yours slowly fade away

    This Next Chapter Is Yours,

    If You Decide…

    • You'll make decisions that support your dreams and trust them — even when they look different to what your best friend has advised
    • You'll have a next chapter that's genuinely yours — not the one that looked right on paper and kept everyone else comfortable
    • You'll still be strong. Still capable. Still completely yourself. But Seen
    • When you look back, you'll be proud because your life will feel even better than it looks

    Understand your brain and how to use it to it’s full potential.

    How to be less frustrated by people around you by learning tools that you can apply to any relationship.

    What you want and how to achieve it in clear actionable steps.

    How to get what you want in a way that’s fair and respected

    How to coach yourself using the self-coaching model

    If you're anything like me,

    Self-development books are just the beginning.

    I’d buy a new self-help book every time I went to the airport, and throughout my holiday I’d get those moments “this makes sense!” and it would feel like everything was about to change immediately. 

    Then I’d come home and somehow nothing actually shifted. 

    I didn’t need another book- I had a shelf full. 

    I needed someone beside me. Someone I could voice note on a Tuesday morning when I felt forgotten about despite asking seven times. 

    Someone who could help me think through patterns and coach me out of them. Permanenty.

    That’s why I built this programme the way I did. 

    Because the mindset works matters, but self-awareness on it’s own just means you understand why you’re stuck. 

    What actually changes is taking that understanding into your real life and applying it in real time, in real situations and doing something different. 

    That’s where we work together. 

    Not in theory, but on the Tuesday morning when it matters.

    Meet My Clients

    Sometimes it's better to hear it from someone else

    Here you will find my clients’ stories from their perspective. 

    Their advice, their reservations, their results. 

    If you’ve been thinking about seeing a coach for a while, take the time to listen to real people’s words. 

     
     
     

    you’re a perfect fit if…

    • You're self-sufficient and capable but tired of carrying it all.
    • You want tools to manage your own thinking and build self belief. I'll lend you my belief in you while yours is still catching up — but we're building yours, not a dependency on mine.
    • You're at a turning point and ready to choose your next chapter deliberately.
    • You're willing to do the thinking work and take responsibility for your results.

    It’s Probably Not for You If…

    • You're looking for someone to tell you what to do and make decisions for you
    • You're looking for a space to vent without it going anywhere — this isn't passive, it's active.
    • You want a quick fix that doesn't require looking honestly at your own thinking.
    • You're not ready yet — and that's okay. When you are, I'll be here.

    Hi, I'm Ashleigh

    I didn’t go to university.

    I was the straight A and A* student who quit school to go solo travelling — thinking I was Miss Independent, but actually, now I’m older and wiser, there was more going on than that.

    A few years later I wangled my way onto a leadership course, went on to complete an MBA and got a distinction. And somewhere in that process I realised something that changed everything:

    I get to decide what things mean.

    That’s been the theme of every chapter since.

    Two years travelling the world with my husband and we first met — Southeast Asia and Australasia. Getting engaged on a ski slope in Austria. Getting married in Thailand. Coming home with no plan and building one anyway.

    Ten years later, we did it again. Two year’s travelling but this time time life coaching my way around Peru, Colombia, New Zealand, Bali and Rwanda, funding the trip from my laptop.

    And most recently, maternity leave with our son — Greece, South Africa, Spain, shared parental leave, and exactly the chapter I chose.

    Not one of those chapters looked like what people expected.

    Every single one has been extraordinary.

    The common denominator: I always have a coach.

    I found my first coach by accident. The leadership course I was on in my twenties assigned me a business coach and during one of the coffee breaks I welled up and asked if him if he could coach me on my life instead. I didn’t even know life coaching was a thing.

    He gave me loving but honest coaching that shaped me into the person I am today. The person I’m genuinely proud to be.

    That’s what I want to give you.

    Not a blueprint for living your life the way I live mine. But the tools, the thinking and the honest challenge to build a life that is unmistakably, unapologetically yours.

    Whatever that looks like.

    Advice Before Coaching

    Most people have the same reservations: 

    Am I going to get what I want out of this?

    It’s a big investment, should I spend the money?

    Is what I want coaching on big enough and important enough to warrant the investment in time and money?

    Welcome. Hear my clients’ honest feedback.

    Therapy Or Coaching?

    A lot of people I meet ask whether they should see a therapist or a coach, and there is no right answer. 

    Everyone I’ve coached, who has also seen a therapist, has found huge value in both. 

    They say they’re totally different.

    Hear their perspective now.

    Words From Clients,

    I started coaching because I was really stuck in a rut. I had been working at a senior level for quite some time without having the recognition or the salary I deserved. 

    The only hesitation I had about coaching was the cost- could I afford it?

    It turned out I didn’t need to worry. 

    At all. 

    Within a couple of months of coaching with Ashleigh, I had the pay rise and promotion I had been chasing for over two years.

    Since working with Ashleigh, the impact has been huge. 

    I’ve already mentioned I had the salary and promotion I wanted for years but also I’m looking at a completely different future. 

    I have achieved some amazing things in my personal and professional life and I now have the confidence and self-belief to achieve anything I want.

    I own my future. 

    Coaching has been an absolute game changer for me.

    There’s More…

    When we spoke in the Mini Session I didn’t think I needed “fixing” so was on the fence about needing a Life Coach. Wow what a decision it was to work with you. In weeks I have improved literally every aspect of my life. I'm a better father, husband, more motivated in work & even signed up to do a degree or MBA. Something I’ve “buffered” for years. I’m fully aware of my priorities in life and have the confidence to react intentionally to anything that comes my way. Myself and my family are happier now than we probably ever have been as a result of what you have taught me. Thank you!

    I just wanted to say that this week I booked myself onto a yoga teacher training course in Greece for the summer. I feel so happy because people have said they're proud of me. I know some people wouldn't think it's a big deal but to me, it's massive and I feel like I can do anything. I always find myself coming back to our conversations and know this is exactly the step I need to take to get to where I want to be.

    I always looked forward to my coaching sessions with Ashleigh. we had a laugh and I felt totally at ease, even when talking about personal things to me. I have the confidence to tick things off my bucket list now instead of waiting for the "right time". I'm excited about my future; I know what I want and that I can achieve it.

    I can honestly say that Ashleigh’s transformed how I see myself and given me the confidence to do things that I never thought I could achieve. When we met, I was at a cross-roads in my career, feeling anxious and lacking the courage to move in a new direction. Just weeks later, I’m applying for jobs in a completely new area and am excited for the future.

    Thanks so much for the coaching Ashleigh. That was amazing. The mental fog around the issues we discussed that are holding back both me and my business has really cleared. I've already started planning how I can use the latest development project more positively which will make a huge difference. Thank you.

    Being coached by Ashleigh has been one of the most important experiences of my life. I felt so comfortable, supported and challenged in all of the right amounts throughout our sessions. I feel that I have been equipped with invaluable tools and methods to show up to my life in the way I had always wanted to.

    Ashleigh has helped me get the perspective I needed to navigate through a family relationship issue. She is passionate about helping you get the results you want to achieve; you can truly feel this. She will cheer you up and stretch you out of your comfort zone in a joyful way ... until you arrive at the finish line.

    Ashleigh was so helpful, welcoming and professional. I could not have asked for a better guide or coach to assist me. She was open, non-judgemental, and she made what could have been a challenging experience very simple and even fun. I was having some specific issues with my husband and she was able to identify and pinpoint the exact issue with laser focus and walk me through how to approach it and get complete resolution which is what I wanted and came to her for. She did the same in providing me clarity on my business and exactly how I could move forward to achieve the goals I wanted. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone who wants a laser focused coach and mentor and friend at their side to help them get clarity and solve any issues they're having in their lives.

    Ash is amazing! She is so easy to talk to and open up to; she helps you see things from another perspective.

    I had been coached before, listened to lots of podcasts around ideas to do with self-development and done plenty of reading but nothing really clicked until I spoke to Ashleigh. She is so warm, perceptive, organised and insightful. She has helped me to align with, and see value in, parts of myself I had been struggling to accept. She has helped me to reframe patterns of behaviour and thoughts that I had begun to think I had to accept despite being unhappy with. She has helped me to continue being me and feel confident in what I believe is important. Being coached by Ashleigh has improved every area of my life and I could not recommend her more highly!

    I just want to say again a massive thank you! I can’t believe yesterday’s session was our last! The 8 weeks has flown by! I’m so grateful for YBL to have introduced you to me. From our mini-session in March, I was sold! You helped me with a few big decisions that I was struggling to make. I didn’t really know what a Life Coach was until then. Your course is amazing, and for me, came at the right time! Now I have the confidence in my decision making and I realise I actually can make the decisions when it matters! You've helped me open my eyes! I’m glad I decided to invest in myself, let’s see what intentional living brings (in my future camper van)! Thank you so much Ash! Take care. Karen

    I knew as soon as I met Ashleigh in a mini session through YBL that I wanted to sign up for coaching with her - she really put me at ease and within minutes we were having a conversation about what I actually wanted to talk about but hadn’t been able to express before. I can honestly say that Ashleigh’s transformed how I see myself and given me the confidence to do things that I never thought I could achieve. When we met, I was at a cross-roads in my career, feeling anxious and lacking the courage to move in a new direction. Eight weeks later, I’m applying for jobs in a completely new area and am excited for the future. Ashleigh skilfully guided me through the training and aside from being an excellent coach, she’s super friendly and supportive. I put 100% in and feel like I got 200% back. Investing in myself and doing the work was definitively worth it – I can’t thank Ashleigh enough for being such an amazing coach and inspiration.

    Wanted to say the biggest thank you! So pleased I did it! The sessions flew a I got increasingly excited to learn of my undiscovered potential. Your sessions are like someone giving you a hug and helping you achieve and celebrate things you often don't realise you're capable of. Thank you.

    I had no idea what to expect when I began working with Ashleigh. Working with her has been a revelation, a consistent enlightenment. The course she has created has been so helpful to me. As soon as I got in touch I think we hit it off, and communicating felt very natural. I had reached a bit of a dead end with my thinking and her input and perspective allowed me to reshape my outlook. She has the ability to focus her attention in a very meaningful and positive way and I think most people would benefit from working with her.

    Thank you Ashleigh for your kind and empowering words (as always). It’s been a life changing few months, where a lot has happened - overcame limiting beliefs, set up a successful weekly yoga class, built confidence in finding my way in my career and lastly helped me find a healthy romantic relationship. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your unwavering support and encouragement - it’s been an incredible journey!

    Before I started working with Ashleigh I felt quite demotivated and lost in my day-to-day life. I had a good job, a loving family and lots of friends, however I just felt something was missing and I wasn't as happy as I could be. I had considered coaching for several months but when researching different coaches I had never come across any that jumped out to me. When I found Ashleigh's website I was genuinely excited. Her message spoke to me and I knew she was the right coach for me. I still pondered if coaching was the right route for me, but after my free mini session I knew coaching was something I had to do for myself, and I knew Ashleigh was 100% going to be able to help me. The very same day I signed up to the Press Reset Programme and started working with Ashleigh the next week. So far my coaching experience has been amazing, I could even go so far to say life changing. The work we have done started making a difference to my life even after week 1. The programme content feels as if it was written for me, it makes sense and has been easy to implement within my life. Now, half way through the programme, I feel so much happier in my day to day life, my family and friends have noticed a difference and I am enjoying all aspects of life so much more. I have learnt so much and I am excited to continue the rest of the programme with Ashleigh as my coach. I would recommend the Press Reset programme to anyone, it will definitely improve your life. Anyone who has considered coaching and is unsure I would say it will 100% be worth the investment and for me its something I will never regret.
