We love telling real stories from real people, people who live boldly, train hard and inspire those around them with a powerful mindset. We collaborated with another one of our incredible +Mindset Mentors, Ashley, to talk about life, fitness, motherhood and the inspiration behind her, "Life Is Just Peachy" shirt.
🌍 Tell us about your hometown or where you currently live.
"I’m originally from Amarillo, Texas, but spent most of my early life in Woodward, Oklahoma. I eventually moved to Ringwood, OK where I graduated high school. I spent five years at SWOSU for college (and yep, still plan to graduate someday!). I’ve also been stationed in several places during my military career."
💼 What do you do for work? Military, civilian job, or both?
"I keep a pretty full schedule! I’m a full-time Civilian Federal Technician for the Oklahoma Army National Guard (OKARNG). On the Guard side, I serve as an 88M Motor Transport Operator with leadership responsibilities. Lately, I’ve also taken a hands-on role in the Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) program, handling team leadership and social media. I’m also working toward my TSAC-F certification to become an instructor."
💪 How long have you served in the military?
"I’ve proudly served in the OKARNG for 12 years and will be starting my 13th on June 21st. I’ve completed two full contracts and deployed to Kuwait under Operation Inherent Resolve in 2018–2019."
🏋️♀️ What’s your favorite muscle group to train?
"It depends on the week, but I’m definitely a leg day warrior! I’m also a big fan of back day. There’s nothing like deadlifts, squats, and blasting some metal music to make my day. Chest day has recently grown on me too, for the strength aspect. Especially since recovering from a shoulder injury."
🎶 What are your other passions outside of fitness?
"MUSIC. I can’t sing or play an instrument but music is everything to me. There’s a song for every mood and I love discovering underground bands and sharing them. I also love the outdoors (especially in the summer!) and am super extroverted. I enjoy meeting new people and always plan events with my daughter in mind. She’s my partner-in-adventure!"
🧠 What does being a Mindset Mentor mean to you?
"To me, it means being someone who encourages others to keep a realistic yet positive outlook, no matter what they’re facing. It’s about reminding people that it’s okay if today isn’t perfect, there’s always tomorrow. As a mom and service member, I’ve learned that sometimes giving 10% might feel like 100%, and that’s enough. It’s all about perspective, showing grace and being there when someone else needs a reminder when things get tough."
🍑 What’s the story behind your “Life Is Just Peachy” shirt?
"At first, I had no idea what to say when asked about a t-shirt design… but I took a step back, looked at my life and realized that even with ups and downs, I’m blessed. Life isn’t perfect...it’s messy, it’s beautiful and it’s peachy in all the ways that matter. And let’s be honest, the gym side of me had to throw a peach in there too! It's a reminder that no matter what you’re going through, it’s going to be okay."
