Ashley also opens up about the importance of discerning God’s will in her vocation. She reflects on how she balances the roles of teacher and mom while serving the community of Spanish teachers, especially those working in Christian settings. With a strong focus on language acquisition research, Ashley creates resources that not only foster language skills but also encourage the following of Christ in every interaction and lesson.

    Her Faith at Work

    In this week's episode my friend Jan Touchberry is joining us to share her wisdom as a Firestarter. She's a Jesus-loving, native Texas, living in DFW. Wife to John, mom of 4 and "LaLa" to 3 (so far). She's mildly obsessed with Survivor (yes - She's seen every episode), personality tests (where are my "Green" Enneagram 8s at?) and have more than a little bit of a sweet tooth (she's working on that.) In 2013 she started her first business and became obsessed with starting businesses and helping others do the same. She is the owner and founder of The Brand Collaborative, specializing in website design, visual branding, and podcast management (but we do a LOT of things). In her "other life," she's in full-time vocational ministry and love serving the local church in whatever capacity God chooses to use her.
