84. Notes for Hope: How Ashley Higgins Turns Pain into Purpose

Ashley shares the origin of Know Her Name and how connection with other survivors transformed private healing into public advocacy. We explore courage catalysts, the Note for Hope campaign, and how Ashley’s work as a fashion stylist now centers care, consent, and nervous-system aware client experiences. Listeners will leave with grounded steps to support survivors and move from pain to purpose.

Know Her Name was founded by Ashley after her experience of rape and assault. Through her healing, Ashley discovered that connection with other survivors was the key to recovery, and she built Know Her Name to help survivors find strength and remember that healing doesn’t have to happen alone. She also brings this mission into her fashion styling work. knowhername.foundation

  • Courage to be seen often begins with one small choice, witnessed by a safe other
  • Connection is a healing multiplier and a design principle for communities
  • “Note for Hope” channels micro-donations + micro-messages into tangible care
  • Service work is sustainable when it’s boundaried and ritualized
  • Purpose can (and should) reshape how business is done, not just what is done
  • Know Her Name: knowhername.foundation
  • Note for Hope: See Know Her Name site for the current campaign details
  • Ashley on Instagram
  • Leave a Note for Hope and donate any amount to support survivors
  • Share this episode with a friend who needs encouragement today
  • If you’re a survivor, identify one small support step you can take this week

As a luxury personal stylist, I don’t just curate wardrobes—I curate transformations. My mission is to guide high-achieving women to transform through elevated style. Luxury is more than a price point—it is an energy, an attitude, and a standard. When a woman dresses to align with her true self, she commands a room, magnetizes opportunity, and moves with intention. I specialize in building investment-worthy wardrobes that are intentional and transformative. What sets me apart is the fusion of intuitive styling and elite-level strategy, honed during my years on Wall Street at Goldman Sachs and a Big4 Accounting firm. I understand the nuance of dressing to achieve career goals while maintaining personal style. My clients come to me for confidence and style that reflects their power. From sourcing designer gems to guiding wardrobe detoxes, I offer a white-glove experience that is as precise as it is personal.If you feel like you’ve been dimming your own light and hiding behind your clothes for “safety,” reach out to me to chat - let’s help elevate your life through style.Connect with Amy:
