I didn't know what he meant when he said this and I thought it was ridiculous but he used to say if you're the smartest person in the room you've got to find another room and I didn't understand that until like two years ago.

But I'm definitely not the smartest person in my room so I'm just going to keep growing and keep learning and keep showing up and maybe

one day I'll have to find a different room but right now I'm right where I need to be.

Step into the world of success with your brand amplified, the ultimate podcast designed

to unravel the intricacies of thriving businesses.

I'm your host, Onica Jackson, and I'm on a mission to uncover the stories, strategies, and secrets

that have propelled entrepreneurs and business leaders to success. I am thrilled to have another mompre newer, digital marketer and

podcaster on the show who lives very near where I lived when I lived in Texas, Ashley Marshall, you are the

CFO of Fear Level Digital Marketing, and you also have a podcast that you host with your CEO,

C-suite Chicks.

So thank you for...

Thank you.

Thank you for having me.

Yes, I enjoyed learning about all about where you were living when you were in Texas.

It's a great place to be.

It's hot all the time, but it's great.

Yeah.

I'd love to talk about your journey a little bit.

You went to Baylor, you study business, then you had roles at a couple of other organizations before moving into this space.

That's right, that's right. Yeah, Baylor wasn't my first choice since you brought it up.

I wanted to go to a big state school. My parents were very devout in keeping us in private institutions for all of our school from first grade on.
