Ashlynn

She left her 6 figure corporate job behind to pursue her higher purpose as a Yoga Instructor and Ayurvedic Health Practitioner. With a university degree in Economics, and a second (Master’s) degree in Business Management, Ashlynn started her career with a global company, working in Management positions in Finance and global Supply Chain. She was “successful” by American standards, especially as a minority both in race and gender, and in a male-dominated industry.

It wasn’t until after Ashlynn accepted a promotion a few years later at her corporate job that brought her to Malaysia. As a busy corporate professional with a toddler and a newborn at home, she became overworked and overstressed, having lunch at her desk and working well past midnight most days. She soon started experiencing migraines and extreme fatigue. Deep down, she knew this life was not sustainable.

She took a 12 months sabbatical to return to her personal Yoga practice, explore life as Yoga instructor and to contemplate a different path. Through teaching Yoga and co-hosting an array of wellness workshops during this period, Ashlynn realised this was the work that she wanted to pursue full-time. Trading in her corporate career of 11 years, Ashlynn has found meaning and joy as a Yoga Instructor and Ayurveda Health Practitioner.

Certified with more than 750 hours of Yoga Teacher Training and more than 1800 hours in Ayurveda training she offers private consultations, classes & workshops locally in Kuala Lumpur, and online around the world. She’s a faculty member teaching Ayurveda courses and mentoring students at the Joyful Belly School of Ayurvedic Diet & Digestion in North Carolina, USA. She is passionate about educating and supporting women facing challenges with stress, burnout and physical/mental health imbalances, including digestive issues, nutrition, hormonal health & reproductive issues, so that they can heal and empower themselves to support sustainable changes in their own lives.
