What happens when a stay-at-home mom follows a wild idea? In this episode, we sit down with Ashley Landers—former teacher, mom of three, and now the owner of Oasis Face Bar Worthington Dublin. Ashley shares the unfiltered reality of starting over in a new city, shifting careers, and diving headfirst into business ownership without a roadmap. From painting walls while pregnant to building one of the most successful locations in a franchise—and then launching her own concept—Ashley’s story is full of purpose, pivots, and permission to do it messy. Tune in to hear how she balances motherhood and business, follows her gut, and redefines what success looks like across seasons of life.

Today we cover:

• How Ashley transitioned from teaching to owning beauty-based businesses
• The importance of purpose and structure after leaving the 9-to-5
• How a front desk job changed her career path and opened new doors
• The origin story behind Dome and why she knew it would stick
• Balancing business, motherhood, and self—without hustle culture expectations
