Two Suns helps individuals and organizations grow from the inside out.

What We Do

Why Two Suns

We are living in a time when leadership, success, and community are being redefined.

Leaders, parents and organizations are seeking deeper alignment, greater purpose, and more sustainable ways to grow.

True growth begins within - and expands outward into the systems we build and the communities we serve.

We believe sustainable change happens when inner clarity and external structure evolve together.

Our Core Competencies

We work across three core areas.
‍
Coaching, Consulting, and Experiences
‍
To help individuals and organizations reconnect, realign, and move forward with clarity, purpose, and impact.

Experiences

The Two Suns Story

Two Suns is grounded in both heart and purpose.

‍It’s a play on words for our two sons, Hunter and Tristan and a reflection of what matters most: family, community, and a future worth building.

After welcoming our second son, we chose a path that honored both parenthood and service. Two Suns was created to align our values with our work.

The name reminds us daily of our “why” to build a brighter path for the next generation and the communities we serve.

Client Testimonials

"We had the pleasure of welcoming Ashley Schwader, of Two Suns Consulting for two professional development sessions with our Project MARS AmeriCorps team, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the experience she provided. Ashley came to each training exceptionally well-prepared and brought with her a wealth of knowledge, insight, and enthusiasm. She was not only well-spoken and engaging but also incredibly generous with both her time and expertise. It was clear that she is deeply committed to empowering others through education and skill-building. Our members walked away from both sessions with valuable tools they can apply professionally and personally. Her ability to connect, challenge, and support our team left a lasting impact—and we’re already looking forward to having her back for future trainings. If you're looking for organizations that provide professional development needs, I highly recommend you book her. You won’t be disappointed!.”

Program Director, Project MARS/AmeriCorps

"Our not-for-profit organization was experiencing significant growth. The Two Suns team, led by Ashley and Jared, assisted us in considering how best to transform our organization to meet both our current staffing needs, as well consider our future trajectory. Their support avoided simply looking at single parts of our system in isolation but instead provided a wholistic view of our staffing, IT, financial and strategic planning needs while honoring the importance of supporting our organizational culture.
Ashley and Jared were both extremely professional and personal throughout the project. While our timelines were tight, they managed the process expertly to keep us track. I would highly recommend the Two Suns team for any non profit looking for organizational support.”

“Ashley and Jared moved quickly to help our organization under an extremely tight deadline and delivered beyond expectations. Ashley was quick to identify exactly what we needed and the path to get there. Her professionalism left me with no question that we would meet our goal. She provided our nonprofit with both the information we were seeking and that which we didn’t even know we needed. Jared’s insight and analysis continues to be helpful and I am so grateful for his timely response to questions. The final report was, and continues to be, an asset for our nonprofit. I would not hesitate to recommend this team. As our nonprofit moves forward with rebranding, we are thrilled with the professional expertise they provided, and the direction we are heading.

“Two Sun's has been such an asset to our organization. We had several identified needs at our agency, but had struggled to make progress on those goals. In only a few short weeks Ashley was able to help us make significant progress on our goals and on one particular task that had started to feel impossible. Her organization and attention to detail is unparalleled, as is her support and partnership. ”
