About

Hi y’all, I’m Ashley. I am a native Houstonian, and I love to share with you about my life, our family’s travels, and most importantly share recipes and lifestyle tips that helped me shed over 95 lbs and get healthy. 

I am a BRCA1+ previvor. At the age of 32 I began preventative surgeries at MD Anderson to mitigate my risk of breast and ovarian cancer. A spot the oncologist found when I was pregnant with my second child prompted the urgency of the preventative surgeries. These surgeries and the medical menopause led to an onslaught of inflammation and weight gain I had not expected.

In 2022, while at onboarding at my new job I met my good friend Laura Spath - who shared with me about carnivore. Laura truly changed my life and my perspective on food. Our video we recorded is below. I want to pay that forward with each of you!

I am a full time mom and career woman. I love Jesus, my family, the beach and a daily Diet Sunkist. You can contact me at ashley@ashleykalkan.com, or catch me on my socials below. Thanks for being here!
