You CAN. And Women Rewriting the Rules is going to show you how. This is the podcast where we explore the rules and expectations that influence modern women. We help you feel confident in their independence, take control of your finances, set and achieve ambitious goals… and feel fabulous doing it. Your hosts - women of color themselves - a USC Professor and a Harvard Grad have faced the same fears, challenges, and persevered as they’ve built ambitious lives and learned to love them exactly as they are Ashley, born to a single mother in small town Texas, worked her way up the corporate ladder at Fortune 500 brands and eventually into academia as an adjunct professor and curriculum creator.. She’s your go-to when you need practical, insider tips & tricks. Sumi, the daughter of immigrants, was nudged down a traditional path by her parents, building her first multi-million dollar consulting firm by the age of 24.

She’s your go-to for straight-shooting advice and inspiration. Here's the thing - you're not living in a 90's rom-com where you'd be stuck playing the role of a funny sidekick. This is real life.

We’ll show you how to redefine your happiness and make big things happen, no matter who says it’s not possible.
