Hey everyone, 

I was tagged recently in a YouTube “Goals/mindset” tag by another fellow YouTuber. 

I had seven questions to answer and then had to tag 5 other people in the YouTube community, so hopefully all of you will enjoy this video. 

If you cannot view the video and want me to send you the questions via email, or leave them in the comment section, let me know  – I don’t mind 🙂

Questions From Ashley to me: 

  1. Why did you start blogging? I started blogging because my Professor in college brought it to my attention when he gave it his students as a project – at the time, I was not in his class, but only talking to him after and during his class because he wanted to help me reach my career goals and give me advice.
  2. What is your favorite thing about blogging? My favorite thing about blogging is having the chance to grow a community of people, I enjoy connecting with others and so this is my way of doing that. 
  3. What are you currently reading and/or obsessively watching? Well I finished up the books my friend gave me – some Stephen King books (first time reading his books) and I did happen to enjoy them, I am hoping to buy some more books soon so I can continue to read because I enjoy it. I haven’t been watching a whole lot of TV lately, but I plan on watching the new season of the Orange is the new black on netflix and hopefully finishing my other show Shameless on netflix as well 😀 
  4. What is your dream vacation? As long as it is someplace warm and pretty, I don’t care at this point! lol
