Meet the Founder —Andrea Asleson
I know what it feels like to function through life instead of living it. To wake up tired, run on stress, check every box, and wonder where you went in the process. I spent years doing the very things so many women do, taking care of everyone else while ignoring the quiet signs my body was sending. Four kids, a busy household, a career in healthcare, and a pace that never slowed down. As a Certified Medical Assistant and former nursing student, I knew how to care for others… yet I was losing touch with my own well-being.
I believed exhaustion was normal. Adulthood. Motherhood. “Just how life is.”
But I also knew something deeper:
Your body was never designed to live in survival mode.
My turning point came when I stopped trying to push through and started listening to my biology, my nervous system, and the wisdom beneath the noise. That led me into Integrative Health & Wellness Coaching, Integrative Health & Healing, and the science-backed tools that helped me rebuild my energy, clarity, and sense of self from the inside out.
And everything changed.
Not because life got easier, but because I learned how to work with my body, not against it. Now, I help my clients do the same.
Why I Created The Renewal Lab
Because too many people are trying to “feel better” by guessing, forcing, or shaming themselves into change.
And that never works.
The Renewal Lab exists to help you reconnect with your biology, your grounding, your inner resilience, and the version of yourself you miss...or maybe haven’t met yet.
Movement becomes healing.
Awareness becomes clarity.
Science becomes empowerment.
And your body becomes your guide again.
Beyond the Work
You’ll usually find me outside, running, lifting, hiking, dancing with my kids, or breathing in the morning sun, even when it’s -5° and frost is forming on my jacket.
Nature is my reset button. Movement is my medicine. And helping others find their spark again is my calling.
If you’re ready to feel like yourself again, supported, grounded, energized, and aligned, I’m here to walk that journey with you.
Welcome to The Renewal Lab.
Move. Heal. Transform.
