As we start the beginning of 2018, I begin to reflect on this year for me. 2017 has definitely been a year of up and downs. First, on a positive note this year, my sister and I started a company called Soap Sisters and we have been very successful. If you haven't already checked out our products go to soapsisterswi.com or facebook.com/soapsisterwi. I have been a keynote speaker in Marshfield in front of 150 people and asked to speak around the state of WI at several major conferences. Also, I graduated from an Entrepreneurial program at Nicolet College. But to be a advocate, I have to realize that sometimes my autism has a major impact on my life with this year being no different with anxiety, panic attacks and feeling depressed. With that said, I couldn’t help think of the song ‘’ Roar" by Katy Perry, because the song "Roar" is about falling down and getting back up. I don’t know what 2018 will hold for me but I am a determined woman and I know I can do anything I set my mind too. I am confident 2018 will be a GREAT YEAR! I have several major goals for this year including making state for track in the 200M, 400M and 800M, start working towards independent living in my own apartment, continue my advocating and aggressively push for more Job Opportunities for the Special Needs Community, grow our Soap Sisters business and make a dent in this world one step at a time.
What are your goals? I would love to hear from you! Cheers to all of us having a great 2018 XO, Ashley
