Productivity Consulting

"Something needs to change but I don't know where to start..."

What does a productivity consultant do?

I will help you:

• Evaluate what's working and what's not.
• Take immediate action to calm your chaos through intentional time management.
• Evolve how you think about and spend your time, energy, and attention.
• Learn how to prioritize the things that matter most.

The outcome:

• You will feel more in control of your time, energy and attention.
• You will have a toolkit to use when things get hectic.
• You will have more clarity on your priorities and next steps.
• You will have the accountability to keep practicing the processes and building new habits.
• You will have a plan for moving forward.

"Ashley has a gift for gently cutting through the noise and finding/maintaining clarity. I consult with her bi-weekly to make sure I’m spending time in a way that aligns with my long-term goals, and to make sure my long-term goals align with my overall values.

She’s a grounding balance for me and lends structure and compassionate accountability to my work. I also really appreciate that she’s a successful CEO in her own right and has first-hand experience with the challenges and pressures of entrepreneurship; working with someone who has opted out of hustle culture and thrived because of it is deeply inspiring."

— Claire Theaker-Brown, Founder of Unbelts and Theaker Co. Consulting

How do I know I am ready for productivity consulting?

You are overwhelmed, exhausted, and want more out of your life than a never-ending to-do list.

• You constantly jump from fire to fire
• You have too many priorities and don’t know which ones to focus on
• You work all the time but never seem to catch up
• You are constantly buried under a mountain of emails
• You often cancel or reschedule meetings because you’re overbooked
• You miss or forget important things because they slip through the cracks
• You are not spending enough time with the people you care about
• You are neglecting your own well-being
• You are just so tired

You want to be calm, with a clear vision of the path forward and a plan to get there.

• Calm things down so you can think more strategically
• Get clarity on what's important and what's not so you can prioritize the right things
• Create an intentional plan and stick to it
• Stop letting your inbox control your day
• Get your schedule (and calendar!) under control
• Learn and experiment with new skills without fear of judgment
• Take care of yourself so you can feel better
• Reconnect with the people and things that truly matter to you

“When I first came to Ashley I had a big idea and I needed a lot of help to figure out how to turn it into a business. She helped me spend my time, energy, and resources in a smart way so I could get my business off the ground. My business would not even exist if not for Ashley’s wise counsel, she makes that big of a difference.” 

— Karen Unland, Co-founder of Taproot Publishing

When I first messaged Ashley I was on the verge of burnout! I didn't have good strategies for dealing with the demands on my time at work and it showed. Ashley helped me out with ways to protect and organize my time and now I'm back to work and much happier!
