This week I am thrilled to introduce you to my friend, Inhaven Founder & CEO Ashley Ching. After Ashley’s fourth child was born she stayed with her family in a vacation rental and yet again found herself shopping for kitchen supplies late at night to ensure she could make breakfast for her family the next morning. She was frustrated as this had become a regular occurrence and then it hit her - why not use my own experience in merchandising to solve this problem?!
Ashley’s story includes: 

Inhaven’s goal to create a consistent, quality experience offering various products at every budget level

The importance of attending multiple events and making connections

How and why she went nationwide so quickly

What makes Inhaven different from the competition

Her biggest fear she had to overcome to make Inhaven a reality


Interested in hearing all that Ashley shares? Make sure to listen all the way through, as her parting advice is incredibly important!
