Episode 114
Friday, 6 February, 2026
What does it look like to make a huge life pivot in the middle of raising small kids—and during a global pandemic?In this episode, Ashley talks with Danielle Alvarez, a mom of three who walked away from the business she’d spent years building and went to law school with a six-, five-, and one-year-old at home. Now a corporate attorney with her own small business-focused firm, Danielle shares what it really looked like to start over, and how she made room for ambition without sacrificing everything else.This is a conversation about redefining success, letting go of timelines, and figuring out what actually feels right—instead of chasing what’s expected.Whether you’re in the middle of a pivot, thinking about one, or just trying to hold your own dreams alongside your real life, this one’s for you.We talk about:– Making a big life change when the timing isn’t ideal– Doing things differently than the “traditional” path– Ambition, burnout, and the pressure to do it all– Parenting while building something new– Starting a business that reflects your values– Letting go of old expectations (and other people’s opinions)Connect with DanielleLinks + Resources:Website: sblslaw.comLinkedIn: Danielle Alvarez, Esq., MBAEmail: danielle@sblslaw.comConnect with Ashley:Website: https://www.ashleyblackington.comPodcast website: https://www.andbothpodcast.com/Dovetail® App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dovetail-app/id6744341822Instagram: @mydovetail.appLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyblackington/
