Welcome to Ask Ashley. Grab a wine and stay awhile.
Carrie Bradshaw wrote for single New Yorkers. I write for suburb moms.
Ask Ashley, your weekly, uplifting newsie, is dedicated to making you laugh and feel seen while providing helpful insights on wellness, mindset, marriage, friendships, and happiness.
If you don’t know me, HI. I’m a writer by day and stylist by night, mom to three darling children and wife to Jake, my tall husband who enjoys mowing the lawn and mocking my ostrich feather hats.
I’ve held editorial roles in several luxury magazines and have freelanced for fun pubs like Forbes, Well + Good, PS, Modern Mom Probs and more. In my spare time I write children’s books, paint jackets, and host clothing swaps and pop-ups. I plan on becoming the next Anna Wintour once I convince Jake to move to New York after our kids have flown the nest. Just 17 more years.
My days are dedicated to this newsletter, hosting fun clothing swaps, and squeezing in champagne lunches with girlfriends.
I believe our weirdness is what makes us great and am on a life-long mission to make a living having fun.
Subscribe now for Tuesday newsletters aimed to make your week smoother, lighter and better.
Cheers.
Keep being you. Keep drinking the good Pinot Grigio.
Xo, Ash
