This week on the Mama Work It Podcast, Marisa sits down with Ashley Wall, M.Ed., an award-winning author, publisher, educator, and mom of two whose mission is to empower families to build confidence, creativity, and resilience — one story at a time.

Ashley is the founder of MamaBear Books and the author of the bestselling children’s series The Day I Had, a picture-book collection that helps kids dream big, embrace imagination, and believe in themselves.

In this conversation, Ashley opens up about how a single idea during story time with her daughter turned into a publishing company and a movement that’s inspiring families across the world. She shares how entrepreneurship has shaped her own mindset and her children’s, how she integrates family and business, and how she models confidence, creativity, and courage in both motherhood and work.

If you’ve ever wondered how to include your kids in your creative or professional journey—or how to build resilience and belief from an early age—this episode will inspire you to start small and dream boldly.
