"We allowed it to be whatever it was that day."
In this episode of Tell Me a Story, Ashley shares her story learning about the power of connection and finding your people through the power of shared experience.
She led an event at her company about year into COVID for the women’s employee resource group. It was an opportunity to (virtually) bring together folks for International Women’s Day, but also to turn the release valve on a year of insular living.
That event (including a name drop: Ali Wong), and subsequent experiences, helped Ashley trust that in our dark times there will be a community that shows up for us.
Her story is about seeing through the darkness of the past few years with the newfound understanding that there is a way through and there are people who will help you along the way.
This is true even if you don’t have the courage to raise your hand for help, or if you still feel yourself wading through those dark waters.
Constantly surprised and delighted with Ashley
