Influence gets misunderstood.

It’s not control. It’s not persuasion. And it’s definitely not manipulation.

In business and in life, your ability to influence others — not pressure them — determines how far you go.

In this episode of Growth Conversations, Ashley unpacks what it really means to be influential and how mastering this quiet skill changes the way you lead, sell, and communicate.

Because the truth is — you don’t need to be an influencer.
But you do need to be influential.
