Today we’d like to introduce you to Ashley Brooke Chambers.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Ashley Brooke. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
My journey to blogging came by an unconventional path. I began my career as an interior designer just ahead of the 2008 recession, which made employment in that field all but impossible. So, I did what anyone would do and learned an entirely new skill set, graphic design! It’s from that humble beginning that I started Ashley Brooke Designs and grew it into a gift product and stationery brand carried in over 600 stores across the USA. And while I no longer produce and sell products directly, they’re still among my favorite things in the world — as are the amazing customers and fans that supported me every step! In so many ways, my blog is dedicated to them.
I’ve been blogging since 2009, and in 2017, it became my full-time job. I created Ashley Brooke Designs in hopes to be a bright spot on the internet and that my readers would always leave feeling encouraged and inspired!
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Oh my gosh, definitely not smooth! But 100% rewarding.
My biggest advice to ask a lot of questions, do your research, and be okay with failing and failing fast!
