A message from Dagny:

When I was 16, I decided to go an entire year without buying anything new. This was the beginning of my love for anything secondhand, repurposed or recycled. 14 years later that passion has blossomed into something more - a community of likeminded individuals dealing with similar struggles; chronic illness, being mindful of what we put in and on our bodies as we create our homes, growing our own food and sharing seeds across the country. The Cottage Peach has been over a decade in the making, as we slowly built our little sustainable homestead and began questioning everything we took for granted. We make space for imperfection, while always striving to be better. We build community to sustain us and bring us closer together.

Hello from Ashley!

I was a hustler. I used to think that hustling my way through life was the only way to be successful. I also had no idea what successful really meant for me.

Then I discovered Yoga and it was MAGIC.

Yoga opened the door to a life full of self-discovery and self-care. I stopped hustling and started living.

For the last 11 years, I've guided thousands of students through yoga, meditation, astrology and mindfulness practices to help them discover what fills up their cup so that it is truly overflowing. I've showed them the simple yet profound tools for self-care and helped them tap into their own power through self discovery.

I created my personal brand and the Yoga Magic Podcast to help gift you a library of accessible new practices that fill up your soul and open your mind.

You'll find me providing clients with customized self-care plans, providing astrology readings, partnering with other healers, teaching outdoor yoga classes, and hosting my chart topping podcast Yoga Magic.

I've taught classes and workshops for national brands such as Target, Lululemon, Topgolf, and CorePower Yoga  and worked with sponsors such as BetterHelp, Thrive Market, Boka, Aloha and more.

When I'm not doing yoga, you can catch me spending time with my two girls Lily and Rory and my partner Jon, reading endlessly, and testing self-care practices on the daily.

Where Should We Begin with Esther Perel

You know that feeling in your gut when you’re struggling to make a decision? When you have a big, or little, choice and you can’t seem to come to the right answer. You can’t seem to find the path that feels good. Thats where Kelsey comes in.

Kelseys mission is to help co-create a world where we all feel empowered to share our gifts (the world needs them now more than ever), love ourselves and each other, and choose to live as fully as we can.
