This is Ashley Stone and you're listening to the Comeback Podcast.

I'm so excited to have you on the podcast. I mean you sent me your story and it

totally fits right and I'm so I'm excited to hear more. So yeah if you want to start by just kind of

telling me a little bit about you I'd love to hear you know if you have kids or you know if you work or what you know what you like to fun just so listeners kind of have a some

context of who you are.

Awesome yeah so I have seven kids I have six girls and then our last was a boy so he's been fun.

I have I've stayed at home for the last I think 18 and a half years but my oldest was putting in our mission papers and I thought, maybe I'll do something and I don't know, it was just weird. I kind of put the feelers out and something fell into my lap, so I do like, I'll just sell a few hours of property

management work and I'm getting my realtor's license so it feels crazy to

enter back into the workforce because I didn't think I ever would once I had the decision to just be a mom I didn't think I'd ever work but now it's it's good

So I play sports. I like to play volleyball. I'm not very good at any other sport but I like to try because it's a good workout.

Yeah for sure. My husband works for the school district. That's kind of a I guess a area that I

kind of interested in I guess but just because that's what he does.

Yeah awesome well I'd love to if you want to jump into your story would love to hear it.

You're so good I koi so I have listened to hear it. You're so good. I, Koy, so I have listened to so many, almost all of your

podcasts. My husband found your podcast and we were talking about how the news is depressing

and it's hard to like find things that are positive online.

So he shared one of your podcasts with me and I was like, this is amazing and so I've been listening

and one thing I love as a listener is how you let

your guests speak but coming into this today I was like oh I'm nervous I like to keep it like super casual and you know what I I think that you know what I I think that you know in my

podcast listening that's one thing that I always liked was the host letting the person sharing just kind of talk and so I really I really try to do that and I think that you know it's just important to kind of let the spirit like guide you and want to

share and I don't want to hinder that in anyway. You're awesome. Okay so my husband

so he was the one he kept we were both listening to your podcast and then I would say did you hear the latest one and we would talk about it and it was so good so many good conversations and he kept saying you need to tell Ashley your story and I was like I don't really have like a comeback
