Coach & Owner

Ashley Karol

Welcome! I’m a Certified Career Coach specializing in neurodiversity in the tech industry. With a decade of experience in mentorship, engineering, and business, I blend evidence-based strategies, a wealth of knowledge, and a deep understanding of the human experience to each coaching session.

After struggling to fit into a neurotypical box for decades, I discovered the power of embracing one’s natural strengths and accepting help from the right people. As the passionate owner of Thoughtful Thinkers Life Coaching, my mission is to empower individuals to embrace their individuality and thrive in both their personal and professional lives.

What My Clients Say

Hear from satisfied clients who have experienced the quality and value of coaching & strategy.

By working with Ashley, I was able to broaden my client offerings and increase my confidence.

LaShawnda R.

I was at a pivotable point in my life – I chose to leave a toxic work environment and a steady income for the opportunity to be excited about my career.  The transition left me feeling exhilarated, bewildered, nervous, an endless mix of emotions, but Ashley guided me through the process of framing and articulating my strengths and values to prepare me for the next step in my career.  Ashley committed to my growth and empowered me to prioritize myself.

Ellen S.

The resources I received, not feeling alone or stuck, feeling better about myself and my options, a kind and compassionate listener, and feedback [was the most helpful part of Ashley’s coaching].
