Join Us for This Week’s Episode of A Day In Her Life with Ashlee McHugh!

This week, Ellie sits down with Ashlee McHugh, a former lawyer turned business owner who helps creatives navigate contracts with confidence. She’s also a mom and content creator living in Louisiana, and let’s jump into her chaotic yet routine, fulfilling days.

What We Discuss:

Morning Person Energy: How Ashlee starts her day with a to-do list, 10-year journal, and a healthy dose of Substack reading and podcast listening.

Nightly Laundry & Early Bedtime: The systems that keep her household running smoothly—and how being an early sleeper helps.

Career Pivot to Entrepreneurship: Why Ashlee left her legal career and how she built a business that supports creatives.

European Summer Travel: The family trip that sparked a new tradition—and how they're planning their next adventure.

Making Friends in a New City: How Ashlee made connections after moving to New Orleans, and the mindset shift that helped her embrace the awkwardness of making adult friends.

This episode is a refreshing look at how one woman blends structure with spontaneity, ambition with rest, and motherhood with community. Don’t miss it!
