On today’s episode, Ashlie Sutton is joining me. Ashlie grew up on an Idaho potato and wheat farm. She’s a wife, mom of four, and the creator of a company called The Haircut Box. Ashlie grew up with a dream of being a cosmetologist and after receiving her Bachelor’s Degree, she got her beauty license and worked behind the chair doing hair for 14 years. Her company was dreamt up from looking at her different passions of teaching others to do hair, budgeting, and making memories with her kids. The Haircut Box was born and while it’s a physical product that she sells, it’s so much more than that. It’s focusing on saving money, learning a new skill, and making memories. The Haircut Box provides the tools to teach you how to give great haircuts to your family to save time and money. 

Ashlie also created the Thank-a-Farmer campaign which raised money for different farms nominated to show appreciation for the hard work that goes into providing for so many others. She shares her history of growing up on a farm and the work ethic she gained from that upbringing.

Today’s episode covers how you can truly make money doing anything and the first step is sitting down and looking at what you’re passionate about. Ashlie’s story and experience is proof that putting effort into what you love can create more opportunities. Her advice of just going for it and not making mountains out of mole hills are words to live by!
