In this powerful episode of Unfiltered with Mia, I sit down with Ashley Edelman, a man whose life has been anything but ordinary. Originally from Australia, Ash began his career in the military before taking an unexpected turn and moving to the UK, where he became both a stripper and an IFBB Pro bodybuilder. He opens up about how stripping shaped his life, the challenges and lessons that came with it, and how he managed to balance the demands of being on stage with the discipline of professional bodybuilding.Seeking deeper meaning, Ash made a radical choice: he became a monk. He shares the profound transformation this path brought, the wisdom he gained, and how leaving monk hood became a turning point in discovering his true life purpose.Today, Ash is a nervous system regulator, breath work facilitator, and co-founder of Immersive in Dubai. He introduces us to the practices of floating breath work and meditation sessions, as well as the 1-1 sessions he offers, powerful tools designed to bring peace, clarity, and healing.This is an inspirational story told with no filters, a reminder that despite the lows, you must stay positive because everything unfolds for a reason. What makes Ash truly inspiring is that through every high and low, he still carries a smile on his face, showing us that positivity and resilience can transform even the most unconventional path into one of light, purpose, and growth.✨ Follow Ashley Edelman on IG: https://www.instagram.com/consciously_ash?igsh=bXRxMW00cWRvbjQ3Check out Immersive :IG: https://www.instagram.com/immersiv.ae?igsh=dDJqZnNxNm45YndhLinktree: https://linktr.ee/immersiv.ae?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=9b1679dc-5687-43c0-b845-e564d6e76cdd—————————————————————————————————FULL EPISODE and follow the journey on the socials:Youtube: https://youtu.be/rrGhVU-Jke4Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1NOrT0pQDGEN6MIUwpzDhG?si=S_MOU7wYSJKag-mxZEu6GQApple Podcast: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/unfiltered-with-mia/id1718935796Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unfilteredwithmia?igsh=aHNqM2J6dnh4N2py Video Editor: Wahid Sekkar IG :https://www.instagram.com/wahidsekkar?igsh=bGJ1NDVlYjM1dno3 Thumbnail & Logo Credits:Meliora Concept Design IG:https://www.instagram.com/melioraconceptdesign?igsh=MXJuc3Bvc3drMGVqZQ== Love Mia xx
