Ashley, 36 years old, CO

Wish submitted by:

Ashley lived in a group home, where she completed high school and went on to attend college, earning her degree in Psychology. Ashley has built an incredibly meaningful life since aging out of care. She has served in the military, is married, and is a devoted parent to her own children. She currently works in hospice care, supporting individuals and families through grief and end-of-life transitions. She earned her Master of Social Work in May 2022 and continues to pursue her passion for advocacy. Ashley is hardworking, dedicated, and deeply caring. She hopes to continue her professional growth by passing her clinical licensure exam and furthering her ability to advocate for children in foster care, giving back the same support she once received.

Ashely has been working on self-care and going to the gym religiously every morning at 5:30. This has been so wonderful for her physical and mental health and wellness. Ashley is currently in a Master's program for Social Work, and she is completing a rigorous internship. Given that she is at the gym so early in the morning, she has to shower and get ready for her internship at the gym. Understandably, she is on a tight timeline, and has not been able to dry or style her hair at the gym the way she wants to. Ashley is hoping for an Airwrap Complete Hair Styler that not only will dry and style her hair in 20 minutes, she will get the gift of time to get to her internship in the morning stress free. Ashley also served in the military, and had to wear her hair in a specific style at all times. Now, she has the freedom to express herself through her hair and clothes, and she is not going to take that for granted. This styling tool will give her a much needed confidence boost at her internship where she is proving herself to be an excellent member of the next generation of social workers.
