“Ashley’s discussion on self-advocacy and negotiation was the tough love our employees needed. She’s a natural conversationalist and gave folks actionable steps one could take to advocate for themselves. We received validation that being emotional and scared is part of the process, but Ashley showed us we can process the feelings and then prepare to ask for what we deserve. A big takeaway is if you don’t get a “no”, you haven’t asked for enough.”
