I mean, how would you fill your days if you had a choice? Good news, you do have a choice! Today, I chat with Ashley Molson about how she built her life and legal practice around her lifestyle goals. The tips, tricks and strategies she uses to balance her drive to be successful and her desire to life a healthy and well-balanced life.

 

What you’ll learn:

  • How Ashley prioritized her lifestyle goals

Best Advice for Finding Happiness:

“Happiness doesn’t just arrive, it has to be cultivated. You really need to get to a point of self awareness to find where that happiness path is. Self-awareness is the first step to being happy, after that you’ll fight for happiness to come into your life.”
