Ashley Holmes, Holistic Fertility Coach
Introduce yourself! Please tell us about you and your life, so we can get to know you better.
I am a spiritual being who is a proud mom of twins and a miracle singleton. I am a Canadian, who married a NZ Kiwi and we currently reside in British Columbia. Before getting married my fiancé and I were rugby mascots in New Zealand on the weekends to save up for our wedding. As a family, we enjoy downhill skiing at Sun Peaks, hiking, surfing, and paddleboarding. We are in our element and thrive when we are in nature. Writing has always been a passion of mine and I become a 3X best-selling author in 2022.
I am a kombucha and legging-obsessed yogi (as well as a Brand Ambassador for Pineapple Clothing) who birthed my Holistic Fertility Coaching business during the pandemic. There is a huge gap I witnessed during my infertility struggle in the support available to women trying to conceive. When I landed on my yoga mat and embodied holistic practices, I was able to conceive easily, naturally, and quickly after walking away from the fertility clinic believing I was unable to conceive without medical intervention.
What is the core mission and focus of your business, Holistic Fertility Coach Inc.?
It is my mission and purpose to empower women to take their health, healing and happiness into their own hands and heal their womb space. I offer customized 1:1 programs that bring mind, body, and spirit back into balance and alignment so that they can conceive with ease.
Could you describe the range of services or products offered by your company for individuals seeking fertility support?
All of the energy medicine that I offer brings the nervous system out of fight or flight mode into rest and digest mode, which is the state you want to be in while trying to conceive. I offer Yin Yoga which is as effective as going to acupuncture to allow the energy to flow by opening up the meridian lines in a similar manner. Restorative yoga is provided too which enables the body to truly rest and restore to its harmonious state. Yoga Nidra meditations are available as a starting point for people who don’t think they can meditate as well as various meditations that work with the subconscious mind and the chakras. Reiki energy healing sessions are offered to purify and clear clients’ energy so that their life force energy is reinvigorated. The sister science of yoga, Ayurveda is used to determine clients’ inborn constitution so that they are nourishing themselves in the optimal way for them.
What sets Holistic Fertility Coach Inc. apart from other fertility support providers?
Everything offered is 100% natural and holistic with zero side effects, only positive benefits. The locus of control is shifted from external to internal and you develop a whole new level of awareness and connectedness of how your mind, body, and spirit functions. Clients feel whole, healthy, and connected on this journey versus feeling lost, broken, and like they need to be fixed; which is often how they come to me initially.
Are there success stories or testimonials from clients who have benefited from your services?
Wholehearted YES!
Testimonial from Alexa in the USA, “Holistic Fertility Coaching has allowed me to nourish myself physically, and emotionally, recognize and relieve stress, as well as self-learning on a whole new level. The program has empowered me with the tools, but I have put in the work. This has been a sacred space for me and I am grateful to feel revitalized, reenergized, and reinvigorated on my fertility and life journey because of her support.” How do you ensure that your holistic approach aligns with the specific needs and goals of each client?
Every single person’s fertility journey is unique, which is why I customize 1:1 programs to meet them where they are with breathwork, nourishment, and movement that honors them. Often clients are not just showing up with infertility as a symptom, there are often other issues addressed alongside their program because everything is connected. What we do to one area of the mind, body, and spirit affects the well-being of the person as a whole. Do you have any upcoming events, resources, or new developments within your business that potential clients should be aware of?
I am constantly growing and evolving and so is my business. I am pleased to announce an exclusive online retreat this December called Holiday Harmony: A Virtual Yoga Retreat in collaboration with other soulful yogis. Click here.
Saturday, December 16 @ 9:00 AM PST. Tell us about your greatest career achievement so far.
A big highlight for me was an in-person author signing at Chapters coming out of the pandemic. During the pandemic, I turned inward and allowed my creativity to flow and it was rewarding to put it out into the world in person. It was heartwarming to meet and see old friends as well as placing these sacred stories into people’s hands who were looking for personal growth and healing. A time of connection after the world seemed apart for so long. If you could change one thing about your industry, what would it be and why?
A holistic approach is often the last resort when someone feels like they have exhausted all other options. Getting to the root cause of symptoms is imperative for true health and wellness and how real healing occurs. A blend of Eastern and Western medicine would profoundly impact addressing the person as a whole so they are not presented with similar symptoms down the road. Tell us about a pivotal moment in your life that brought you to where you are today.
The most pivotal moment of my life was my spiritual awakening where I realized I had almost unconsciously created the life I didn’t want (being able to have children). Once I saw what was dormant in my unconscious mind, I could then consciously create the life I desired. Welcome miracle baby and gratitude for all of the lessons and hardships up until that point. Time to prioritize my mind, body, and spirit daily for the rest of my life because in doing so I have completely transformed my life and who I am.
