An Australian man’s claims about his journey—from starting as a stripper to becoming an OnlyFans creator, transitioning into a bodybuilder, then embracing the life of a monk, and ultimately reinventing himself as a personal growth strategist—has garnered widespread admiration and support from social media users. Ash Edelman described his transformative journey as “living multiple lives in one life” in his Instagram bio.

In a video shared last year, he expressed the different stints he was involved in, adding that at one point, he became addicted to maintaining a certain lifestyle and being a part of the glamour world. The 35-year-old further explained his journey to “becoming a monk.” However, this is not the only video; there are several clips in which he made similar claims.
