In this heartfelt episode, I sit down with Ashley — a photographer who has spent the past decade capturing the beauty, personality, and spirit of high school seniors and teens.
Through her lens, she’s discovered something deeper: a passion for helping young women feel confident, resilient, and seen.
For me, this conversation is personal. My daughter will be a teenager soon, and I want to learn how to show up as the father she needs.
Ashley shares her own confidence journey, the gaps she sees in how we teach girls about self-worth, and the tools parents can use to support their daughters through the often turbulent teen years.
Whether you’re a parent, mentor, or someone who works with youth, this episode offers practical insights, heartfelt stories, and a reminder that the earlier we plant the seeds of confidence, the stronger our young women will grow.
