How to Work Part-Time Hours Without Sacrificing Your Financial Goals with Ashely Abbs
One of the things that are likely keeping you stuck and not allowing you to make a decision, that feels like the right decision, for you and for your family – is your fear of what will happen to your practice if you’re not working all the time. You worry if you’re not putting in all those hours and If you’re not seeing hundreds of patients – what will happen to your practice?

Meet our Guest: Ashely Abbs
I’m an Author, Doctor of Acupuncture, Writer, Mentor & Mother.
I’m also an Earth Element with a strong Water Secondary. And lets not forget that little spark of Fire
I guide visionary leaders, creatives and heart-centred ambitious women to activate their soul, awaken their intuition and amplify their gifts with the 5 Elements of Chinese Medicine to create a life fuelled by love & legacy through embodiment.
I believe, small devotional practices performed on a regular basis combined with curiosity and a willingness to engage with our emotional landscape creates profound transformative healing that ripples outward to enhance not only our personal well-being and destiny but also that of our circle of influence and the wider world.
My work is comprised of almost 20 years of experience in healing and client work. Centred on the foundations of 5 Element Philosophy, Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, Coaching, and Embodiment practices combined with my own transformational healing journey to support my clients remember their innate worthiness and navigate their next evolution with ease, grace & flow.
Tapping into the depths of what this medicine can offer you and fully acknowledging and accepting who you are, and why you are the way you are; steady steps, and serendipitous moments begin to show up and support your greatest aspirations. Even when it feels hard (because life isn’t always cupcakes and unicorns), the Elements provide the foundation and pathway for you to come back home to your centre, to be reminded of your innate worthiness and wholeness.
With Full permission to be who I am. My Earth, which makes me a natural nurturer, perfect for the type of work that I do teaching and supporting clients both in my clinic and in online groups. Is also the reason why I prefer to be home with my family, gravitating to comfort and an even no drama pace.
A lover of philosophy, psychology, deep conversation about the intricacies of the universe and human relationships is deeply rooted in my Water. On top of that, it makes me a dreamer, conceptualizing the big picture. Spending time by myself to integrate and take in all of the information that I collect is a non-negotiable requirement in my daily life. This allows me to get clear and know deep in my gut when its time to leap beyond my Earthy comfort zone.
And that little bit of Fire, it served me well in my former life when I was a National Competitive Ice Dancer, commanding attention at centre stage. Now it shows up when I’m teaching or speaking in front of audiences sharing my passion for this work & medicine that I love.
Knowing who I am, and fostering my Elemental Alchemies virtues and gifts has allowed me to create a practice that supports my inner alignment, form right relationship between my roles as a mother, wife & entrepreneur, all while making space to guide others to create change and transformation in their relationships, work, practices and self.
