Welcome to the very first episode of Charm & Circumstance! I’m your host, Ashley Bruggeman—interior designer, business owner, midlife guru (just kidding on the guru part), soon-to-be empty nester and now, podcast host. In this kickoff episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the heart behind this show and why I felt called to start it in the first place.

We’re talking about more than just beautiful homes (though you’ll get plenty of that, too). This episode is all about the deeper reasons why I created this space—for real conversation, community, and creative inspiration.

Whether you’re navigating your own new chapter, building a business, dreaming up your next move, or simply craving a meaningful conversation—you’re in the right place.
