I call on you this week to reach out to another woman in your life. A woman that needs a good word, a in-person or virtual hug, motivation, or support. You have no idea the ripple effect it will have.

Today on the show, Ashley and I dive into something so important and foundational – purpose. 

During today’s show, Ashley and I chatted about:

1. The meaning behind unlimited to Ashley, especially since her company’s name is You Unlimited.
2. Why is purpose so important, and how do you we go about finding our own purpose?
3. How does Ashley leverage CliftonStrengths in her work with teams?
4. What is the intersection between purpose and CliftonStrengths?
5. What is flow state coaching?
6. When was the last time that Ashley was in a flow state?

Here is more about Ashley:

Ashley Kletke is the founder of You Unlimited Coaching and Workshops. You Unlimited helps organizations uncover their purpose, elevate their strengths, and engineer their cultures. 

As an engineer turned performance coach and facilitator, Ashley has a unique ability to bridge the analytical and the human — helping individuals, teams, and businesses move forward with clarity and purpose.

Ashley's work is rooted in the belief that when people understand their unlimited purpose and leverage their individual strengths, that's when they truly become unlimited. She uses CliftonStrengths as one of her core tools in her work with teams, helping them move beyond simply agreeing that collaboration matters to actually knowing how to do it. She also weaves wellbeing and flow state coaching into her practice, with a firm belief that wellbeing is fuel for performance — not a nice-to-have, but a necessity.

Based in Mattawan, Michigan, Ashley works with people and organizations ready to get clear on the purpose behind their goals and build the tools to be their best selves — at work and in life.
