About this listen

Hosts Amber and Jesse welcome Ashley Drye, a military brat who grew up in the Navy community and lived in places like Germany and East Coast USA. Ashley shares how constant moves shaped her relationships, social anxiety, and love of food, and explains how she turned baking into a small business making quick breads, cookies, and breads.

The conversation covers military family life, holiday traditions from overseas, the challenges of transitioning to civilian life, mental-health impacts on military children, and the importance of community and mentorship for veteran and dependent entrepreneurs.
