Mother's Day Series: part 2

This week in our Mother’s Day series, we’re joined by Ashley, founder of Hot Tommies and a mom who proves it’s never too late to reinvent yourself.
After years of building and scaling her community running Business Socialistas, Ashley found herself at a crossroads. What once fueled her no longer filled her cup and she made the brave decision to pivot. In her 40s, she stepped into the unknown and launched a completely new venture: a heated vest brand designed with both function, confidence, and fashionable in mind.
In this episode, Ashley opens up about what it really feels like to outgrow something you once loved, the emotional weight of closing a meaningful chapter, and the courage it takes to trust your path...even when it’s unclear. We talk about the highs and lows of entrepreneurship, identity shifts beyond motherhood, and listening to that inner voice that tells you when it’s time for something new.
This conversation is for any mom navigating change, questioning what’s next, or learning to trust herself again. Or even the mom who can't see past the diapers and spit up right now. Ashley’s story is a reminder that pivots aren’t failures, they’re often the beginning of something even more aligned.
Tune in and be inspired to embrace your own evolution.
