Welcome to strong.ER, my friends! My name is Ashley Briana Eve, and to be honest I am absolutely honoured to have you in my little corner of the internet!

Online I have come to be known as THE “Human Design Chick”, but if I am going to be fully honest with you I was still unfulfilled in my business. I love Human Design, and it will forever colour my coaching, both in business & fitness, however it wasn’t my PASSION.

You see, I am a fitness chick through and through. About 5 years ago I closed down my personal training studio, strong.ER after a couple of rough life events. A business relationship crumbled at the same time I had injured my back training for the Crossfit games.

I was bed ridden for 6 weeks.

If you know anything about the valley of despair, from the emotional cycle of change (I will link my podcast episode about this at the end) I had hit this spot and HIT IT HARD! And I allowed perceived defeat to overtake me.

I closed my studio and started working in corporate.

I am going to save you a bunch of boring details but let’s fast forward to a August 2019:

I had enough of corporate. I knew I was meant for big things in this world and I knew I was meant to make a massive impact in the lives of others. I was on depression medication and anxiety medication trying to numb the absolute crap of working in a corporate call centre (Side note: I don’t ever recommend working in a call centre!).

I was wildly unhappy. Every day was a struggle to get out of bed and show up in life. I had been online life & fitness coaching as a “side hustle” but I finally had enough and walked out of corporate. I was ready to make my dreams a reality….

Or I just couldn’t convince myself to go in anymore; depends on how you look at it 😉

Not one client. Not $1 in savings.

In fact, I had $200 left in my account and I spent it at WAL-MART on flamingo decals for my home office walls!

I quickly grew my name for Human Design, and soon enough I had built a 6 figure in 6 month business helping others align with their energetic blueprint and create their own wildly successful businesses!

$35, 000 + months became the norm….

Which will probably shock you when I say that I walked away from it.

In June of 2020 I burned out. I had NOT been taking care of my body. I was working absolutely absurd hours in my business accommodating everyones schedule but my own. Putting everyone else before me.

In fact, in terms of fitness, I had somewhat grown resentful towards the body that I blamed for ruining my chances of the Crossfit games. I also, now realizing, had become resentful that a business, strong.ER, that was growing at a massive scale had been closed. Consciously, all these years, I had not realized that I was beating myself up for closing it and at this subconscious level “punishing” myself by allowing my health & physique to decline.

Side note: You will notice I am wildly honest about my journey and life to help others see that it isn’t always sunshine and rainbows, no matter how successful you are!

One day, in June 20202, my husband said to me “I am worried about your health”. I immediately joked that he was calling me fat, to which he said “You know I am not! You just don’t move! You sit at the computer all day!”.

A legitimate observation.

I had become a far cry from the fit physique athlete I once was and this nudge propelled me right back to where I was back when I was making a massive name for myself in the fitness industry!

In 4 weeks I had completely transformed my body (While, I must add, eating low fat vegan ice cream post workout!):

And soon enough, the “stuck” feeling I had in my business opened up with the realization that this journey was meant to lead me right back to strong.ER.

Within 12 hours of posting that I was going to take on personal training clients again my first week of intakes was filled up. Within 24 hours my first 2 weeks of intake was filled up. And now I am booked 3 weeks out for new clients!

My schedule even booked up with some of my ORIGINAL in person clients and challenge winners from 5+ years ago!!

There are moments when I ask if I have wasted all this time. I won’t lie. The question of “Where would you be if you just found a way to make it work back then” creeps up.

When this devil shows up it reminds me of Napolean Hill. He wrote THE BOOK, quite literally, on mastering money before ending up destitute. His story reminds me that those obstacles, setbacks and paths that I took were meant to happen.

Like Napolean Hill says “They were blessings in disguise because they forced me to continue a work which finally brought me an opportunity to make myself more useful to the world than I might have been had I succeeded in any previous plan or purpose”.

The reality is the worst of all human ailments is indecision. So when I got that nudge to resurrect strong.ER, like the Phoenix from the ashes, I followed it, regardless of what people may say.

The truth, my friend, is this: Our suffering is self inflicted. Instead of taking advantage of life, our temporary defeats and every other beautiful moment that comes our way we sink into indecision and allow our limiting beliefs and stories to control our lives. Being strong.ER means using those temporary defeats to find your other self, the next level version of you, and embody that version NOW.

It is always a choice. A decision we must make. And I see this all the time with fitness goals. Instead of learning from their journey so many people stay stuck and unhappy so they can feel sorry for themselves because “things never work out” or “It happens for others but not for me’.

I know, because I have been there.

And I was meant to go through these struggles. I was meant to put on the weight. I was meant to give myself all the BS excuses so I could help others move past them AND to be an example that my shit works.

Because I will ALWAYS go first. You can trust that I don’t ask you to do anything I haven’t done myself.

In June 2020 when I literally couldn’t even FORCE myself to do another Human Design launch I hit that emergency state that forces people to think. I was at a crossroads. And fear can either motivate us or paralyze us.

I was fearful making a big pivot in my business. But I recognized I had a choice and reacted positively. I took on my fears head on. When you do this you can permanently change your life.

Maybe you are discouraged, feeling angry or irritable with your body and life. Feeling that the body of your dreams isn’t for you because ___(Insert excuse here)___. Maybe you feel discouraged and lack the self- confidence to take on your dreams head on due to uncertainty or the fact you have met failure before.

You can overcome this to live a life wilder than your dreams.

Like other manifestation techniques I have taught: If you can see your dream physique in your minds eye, in the spiritual realm, it exists. You simply need the right plan to bring it into reality. I can help with that.

Force yourself to grow through the uncertainty. Force yourself to grow through the doubt. In the most uncertain times you will be able to gain the insight into what you need to succeed. In your greatest “what the f*ck” moments you will gain the strength to overcome.

And you will be forever strong.ER for it.

From now on, my friend, speak with authority because you are about to rise above your own difficulties with courage, purpose, badassery & strength. Your life is waiting for you. What goals have you been putting off?

If one of them is your physique goals I have limited time pricing to build back up a current transformation database.
