Mission
Spread as Much
Good Energy As Possible Around the World
person by person. day by day.
by helping people find, use, & spread their OWN good energy.
The Good Energy Project Vision:
That all humans ARE:
- Living & working in their zone of genius (by understanding & using their superpowers)
- Feeling good about themselves & their ability to create a fulfilling, aligned life
- Experiencing less fear & more love – for themselves, life, & their fellow humans
- Learning how to live THEIR best lives, AND how to let others live THEIR OWN best lives
- Having confidence in who they are
- Making enough $$ to support themselves & their families
- Connecting to themselves & the world in a way that makes them more compassionate & empathetic
The GOOD ENERGY PROJECT IS HERE BECAUSE:
Our world is at an interesting crossroads, & we need to support one another as we navigate the most rapid changes in history in such a short period of time (& it’s continuing to accelerate).
We feel energy from others & project our own energy out – ALL.THE.TIME.
We can all think of someone with good energy. You feel good and ‘UP’ around them – even after you walk away. And we often feel a little down when we’re around people projecting negative energy.
The good news – is that YOU are the ONLY one who controls your energy.
If we can use more of our time each day to feel & share OUR GOOD ENERGY out in the world, we create a ripple effect and a happier world for us all to live in.
About Me:
Hi, I'm Ashley.
Founder of THE GOOD ENERGY PROJECT &
someone who knows firsthand what it feels like to have life flip upside down in an instant.
The short version:
When my 20-year relationship ended just 10 weeks before the world shut down for COVID, I found myself alone Googling:
“How to not F up your kids in a divorce.”
What followed was a wild, disorienting ride through grief, learning to co-parent, ADHD realizations, trying to figure out what ‘I’ want now for the rest of my life – when it had been ‘We’ for so long:
- Continuing my search for purpose & work that actually fit with who I am
- Navigating dating, dating apps, & new relationships in midlife
- Trying to stay upbeat & positive so my kids wouldn’t be so traumatized by what seemed like a sinking ship in our immediate & global lives
Along the way, I learned I wanted to help other mid-lifers in transition, including single moms with ADHD, ride the transition roller coasters with their hands in the air — not white-knuckled — & rise from the ashes like a damn phoenix.
We are not on this planet to suffer. I’ve learned life is meant to be LIVED & enjoyed! It’s a choice – YOUR choice.
Let’s go find your good energy & have some fun!
The full story
My parents were happily married for 37 years, until my dad passed at 65. I knew nothing about divorce — & looking around, I didn’t see any examples of single moms who were thriving.
What I saw – on TV & in real life – was stress, survival mode, & a lot of resentment. I knew I didn’t want that to be my story.
So, I made a decision – if I couldn’t find an example to follow, I’d become my own example.
I would choose MY OWN ADVENTURE. I would be MY OWN HERO.
Then came COVID — & with it, a quiet I didn’t ask for, or know what to do with after not being alone for 20 years, especially as an extrovert.
Half the time I was completely alone, without my kids. So, I read. I listened. I studied. I tried to understand ADHD, divorce, co-parenting, solo parenting, middle-age dating, & how to build a career that didn’t stress me out & drain the complete F-ing life out of me.
One book hit me hard: “The 5 Regrets of the Dying”. I started asking:
- What kind of life would I want to look back on from my deathbed?
- What would I regret if I didn’t change?
- What kind of mother, woman, & human did I WANT to be?
I realized I didn’t want to stay stuck in anger or resentment. I didn’t want to model bitterness to my kids.
So, I focused on what I could control: my thoughts, my energy, & my intention to create something better.
No, my story didn’t go the way I thought it would.
But once I accepted my reality — what is, not what should have been — I could start writing the next chapter. ON MY TERMS.
I wanted to show my kids what resilience looks like, how to:
- Find silver linings in hard moments.
- Lead with kindness, even when it’s hard.
- Stay curious, hopeful, & real
(And no — we don’t nail it every day. But those are the targets.)
Now, several years into this journey, I’m proud of the humans we’re all becoming — me, my kids, & yes, even my ex (sometimes 😉). We’re learning to let things go. To laugh more. To appreciate & be grateful for everything we do have, because the universe gives us more of what we what we focus on & are grateful for.
Why I Started The GOOD ENERGY PROJECT:
I’ve learned so much about what it takes to navigate big, messy, beautiful life transitions — & I want to help other people do the same.
Especially those of us navigating the ups & downs of midlife, & particularly single moms with ADHD,
BECAUSE THAT INTERSECTION IS A LOT & ONE I KNOW WELL.
Looking around I also couldn’t ignore the fact that our country is undergoing some significant growing pains that come with change that is never ceasing in life.
There is a lot of fear underneath those growing pains. Of the unknowns that come with something new & different, of losing control, & deep down a fear of being unworthy & alone.
Convincing people to change their minds about issues that have been so strongly programmed through impressive, insidious marketing would not be helpful.
In Our Heart & Soul, We Know the Difference
Fear may lead us to paths that spread negative energy, but if we shine light on the fear & just feel it for 90 seconds, it will leave you alone.
Instead of focusing on fear & the differences among us, I want to encourage people to focus on creating & spreading GOOD ENERGY in their day-to-day lives & in striving toward larger goals they have for themselves. And in the process learn how things in their life improve & their wishes, prayers, manifestations come to life.
Before this chapter of my life, I spent two decades as a consultant helping federal & state government clients solve complex problems & navigate the changes in large organizations when a major shift happens.
My job was to help clients figure out:
- Where they are now,
- Where they want to go, and
- Creating a map for how to get there — clearly, collaboratively, & strategically
In 2024, I left my consulting career to pursue a calling to help women (& men) in a similar way but helping them in transition periods of life to define their own story, reclaim their power, & design a life that actually fits them along with a map for how to get there.
I earned my coaching certification from an ICF-accredited organization, building on decades of mentoring & coaching clients, colleagues, & friends.
None of us will ever have all of the answers
But, by staying curious about ourselves & what is really important to us in life,
we prioritize & create a life that fills our good energy bucket –
so much that it spills over & spreads good energy to those around us.
