Hi I'm Ashley!
I married my high school sweetheart and together we have three, almost four, fun-loving kids. An 9-year-old animated boy, a 7-year-old spunky girl, a 4-year-old hilarious boy, and our 4th baby boy is due in March of 2021.
I started Simply Our Lifestyle to have a place to share my Alopecia experiences while being a mom. I’m a can-doer and I’m stubbornly optimistic for life, which means, I’m quick to try just about anything. This trait has given me loads of life lessons learned, to which I thank my God for. I’m passionate about God and inspiring girls and women with alopecia to feel beautiful and confident in their own skin.
I have been bald since March of 2007, due to an auto immune disorder called Alopecia. It just means my body doesn’t recognize my hair as something good. Instead my body attacks my hair follicle, making it fall out. Having Alopecia has been a great blessing in my life. It has helped me learn where true confidence and character comes from, and has given me so many amazing opportunities to connect and help other ladies find confidence within themselves through their individuality.
I’m enthusiastic about life and bringing people together. For this reason, I love growing with my community of bald ladies with Alopecia, or cancer, and having a fun confident support group.
I’m excited to use this space to share my experiences with you!
For fun, here are a few things about me.
- I was born in Montreal Canada
- I love waking up to the Sun
- I need seven hours of sleep to stay in a good mood all day
- I love nerds, smarties, and tart/chalky candy
- I’m crazy confident…unless I’m in a swimsuit.
- I clean and organize for fun.
- I love writing fantasy, fiction, poems, and blogging
- My biggest fear is the WATER!
- My family is my world and I’ll do anything for them
- I love being bald and wouldn’t change it.
