In this episode of The Hold It Down Podcast, hosts Big Lee and Michael Betheley sit down with Ashanti Williams, a Spokane native and real estate agent with D.R. Horton, to talk about growth, responsibility, and building a better future.

Ashanti shares her journey growing up between Spokane and California and how life challenged her early when she became a mother at a young age. That experience forced her to mature quickly and helped shape the determination and mindset that drives her today.

From navigating life’s obstacles to building a career in real estate, Ashanti talks about the lessons she’s learned, the importance of perseverance, and why creating opportunities for the next generation matters so much to her.

Her story is one of resilience, accountability, and purpose — making her a powerful role model for young women and an inspiration to anyone working to turn challenges into success.
