All Up In: Breaking the Patriarchal Mold with Ashley Logan

Finding your feet as a female entrepreneur in a patriarchal society is exceptionally difficult, and unfortunately, that has kept many women from pursuing this type of independent career path. Today on All Up In My Lady Business, the founder and CEO of the marketing firm Yakety Yack, Ashley Logan, joins us to discuss being a female entrepreneur and finding a way to balance out the world’s excessive masculine energy at the same time. Her earliest career experiences were clouded with misogyny and sexism, and today, Ashley shares her journey of overcoming them, starting her business, and learning how to break the patriarchal mold that doesn’t serve any of us. Ashley experienced some intense culture issues in her business and she explains how she eradicated them and learned to stop accepting toxicity by listening to her intuition before reflecting on the dangers of not appreciating women. Finally, we discuss how women can change the world when we realize our power. To hear all of this and even share in our love and admiration for Taylor Swift as a businesswoman and feminist, tune in now!
