Ashlee "Sunny" Weatherly
Founder of New Life Collective, deep conversation enthusiast, outdoor adventurer, world traveler, wife, mama, and lifelong student of what actually creates lasting transformation.
Seventeen years as an entrepreneur. Hundreds of women mentored. Rivers guided and mountains climbed all across the country. And a decade of walking with Jesus that reshaped everything she believed about how people actually change.
For years, I immersed myself in personal development, mindset and identity work before realizing there was a deeper layer: inner work that doesn't just make us more self aware, but brings us back to who God says we are. My walk with Jesus over the last decade has reshaped everything I believe about growth, leadership and healing, and it's why I believe the most powerful inner work should ultimately point back to the Gospel.
I'm now expanding that work through training in faith based identity, neuroplasticity and nervous system informed coaching, while bringing together years of mentoring women, building businesses and communities, leading retreats, guiding rivers in Alaska, and taking women into the Alaskan wilderness through discipleship.
That's the heart behind NLC and experiences like The RENEW Method™ and our Alaska Retreat: helping women become more rooted in Christ, more aware of what's shaping them, and more equipped to steward their calling, leadership, business and life well.
Serving God's world is also deeply important to our family. My husband and I will worldschool our kids in the coming years — and that same spirit of depth, courage, curiosity and intentional living is woven into everything I'm building here.
Stated plainly, including what isn't finished.
A brand built on honesty about patterns should be honest about credentials. Here is the distinction between what is completed, what is underway, and what is lived experience.
Seventeen years building
Entrepreneur since 2009, building businesses and communities. Hundreds of women mentored across leadership and community building over that span.
Retreats and wilderness leadership
Multiple retreats designed and led. Years spent guiding rivers and climbing mountains all across the country, and taking women into the wilderness through discipleship programs.
Certification and training
Currently pursuing certification and further training in neuroscience informed, brain based coaching and nervous system work, integrated with a faith based approach to identity and personal growth. This training is underway and is not yet complete.
The RENEW Method™
Developed by Sunny as a teachable, repeatable framework for closing the gap between belief and behavior. The methodology, curriculum, and materials are owned by New Life Collective.
New Life Collective provides education and coaching. Sunny is not a licensed therapist, physician, or clinician, and nothing offered here is therapy, diagnosis, or medical care. As the Institute develops, an advisory group with appropriate theological and professional expertise will be named publicly.
