Why (W)TF ™, our personal story
Ashley Taylor, the founder of Born of Ashes LLC, embarked on her journey into integrative psychology long before any formal training. With over a decade as a Wildland Firefighter for the U.S. Forest Service, working on engines, helicopters, and hotshot crews, she found her calling at the McCall Smokejumper Base in Idaho. After sustaining multiple injuries, she transitioned to pursue a career allowing her to give back to the community she considered family.
In her pursuit to become a smokejumper pilot, Ashley earned all her aviation certifications, flying Twin Otters globally and later the Citation XL for a corporate charter company in Seattle. While recovering from surgery, her healing journey expanded beyond the physical body, delving into yoga teacher training and meditation, exposing her to alternative practices like neuro-linguistic programming, inner child work, and healing from generational trauma.
Motivated by her own transformative experiences, Ashley sought further education, recognizing the importance of addressing emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. With a clear vision, she now endeavors to give back to the wildland fire and pilot communities, offering support to individuals facing mental and emotional stress from demanding careers. During this education journey, Ashley met Melissa, and found they share common passion for serving the people in these communities.
Melissa DeLuca, the founder of DeLuca & Willow, emerges as a seasoned executive coach driven by a profound understanding of the mental and emotional challenges prevalent in the high-tech industry. Witnessing decades of leaders, herself included, grappling with stress from demanding careers, she established her business with a mission to guide individuals and organizations through rapid personal evolution in a volatile world. Drawing parallels between the corporate realm and the first responder community, Melissa recognizes the shared impact on wholistic health.
Boasting over 30 years of corporate HR experience and a diverse education encompassing integrative psychology, Ayurvedic health practices, meditation, and energy work, Melissa taps into her wealth of knowledge to empower others. Her dedication extends to giving back to the first responder community, inspired by her partner—a retired wildland firefighter and Marine. Melissa’s wholistic approach and vast experience uniquely position her to navigate the challenges of leadership and well-being in today’s dynamic landscape.
Upon exchanging stories about wildland firefighters, Melissa and Ashley were inspired to forge an environment that fosters genuine transformation and agreed “It’s sincerely needed for these communities.” Ashley and Melissa began to envision ways to educate, encourage and empower others. While brainstorming, Melissa’s partner said with excitement, “(W)TF ™, let’s make this happen!” And so, (W)TF ™ was born!
