In this week’s Mentor March episode, I’m sitting down with someone who has had a massive impact on my life and career, my longtime friend and mentor, Ashley Alderson, founder of The Boutique Hub. Ashley was actually my boss first, and over the past decade, our relationship has evolved from employer and employee to close friends and trusted sounding boards for each other in business and life. In this conversation, we talk about the power of mentorship, investing in yourself, and how reshaping your mindset around money, success, and worthiness can completely change the path you’re on.

We also dive into some of the biggest lessons Ashley has learned over nearly 15 years of entrepreneurship, from staying focused on your own lane and setting boundaries to navigating the seasons of business and family life. This episode is a reminder that growth rarely looks perfect, but surrounding yourself with the right people and staying committed to your values can take you further than you ever imagined.
