Let’s dive into the lessons and strategies behind building something truly impactful.
Ashley’s Journey to Becoming a Coach
Ashley didn’t start her career in coaching. She worked in real estate and dabbled in several jobs, all of which left her feeling unfulfilled. A chance encounter at a friend’s wedding sparked the realization that she was meant to help people, and she began exploring the idea of becoming a life coach.
From working at a yoga studio front desk to building her own coaching practice, Ashley followed her intuition and leaned into what felt right for her. Over time, she discovered her unique strengths and developed a method that became the foundation of her certification program.
If you’re looking to identify your unique strengths and create a program that aligns with them, the Dreampro Course Creation System can help. Start building your course here.
Building a Certification Program: Key Takeaways
1. Focus on Being the Best, Not Just Making the Most
For Ashley, coaching was never about chasing money—it was about creating meaningful transformations. While money is important, leading with your mission ensures authenticity and a stronger connection with your audience.
This principle applies directly to creating a course or certification program. When you focus on delivering value and transformation, success will follow. Need help crafting a program that delivers results? Explore our DFY Course Design Services here.
2. Create a Unique Framework
Ashley’s certification method revolves around a clear, memorable framework:
- Energy: The core of working with clients.
- Entrainment: Building trust by syncing energy with clients.
- Engagement: Deep listening to understand and connect.
- Equanimity: Meeting clients where they are.
- Encompass: Holding space for the entire process.
This structured approach makes her program easy to understand and implement, ensuring her clients can replicate the results. When creating a course or certification, think about the unique framework that represents your values and expertise. Need help defining your framework?

The Detailed Work Behind Certification Programs
Developing a certification program requires time, effort, and intention. Ashley spent eight months building her program, which included:
- Writing a 200+ page manual.
- Creating scripts and resources.
- Meeting the standards of the International Coach Federation for accreditation.
While it’s a significant investment, creating a certification program ensures that participants leave with a robust skillset and the ability to facilitate transformations for their own clients.
