About Ashley Kirkwood
Ashley Kirkwood is an entrepreneur, speaker, and award-winning lawyer. As a renowned corporate attorney, she reached what many would call a peak – a $300k+ job. But she left it to go on her own.
She began a virtual law firm, which quickly replaced and then surpassed her previous income. But along the way, she realized two things: she loved speaking and teaching, and she also had a real talent for scaling up a business. She perfected packaging and presenting professional services to corporations and other organizations, and started teaching others. Speak Your Way to Cash® was born.
Ashley’s enthusiasm and success mindset are infectious, and her results have been well-documented. Most important to her, however, is how her teachings help, inspire, and empower others. Professionally, that’s what she lives for.
Ashley has been recognized as a thought leader by FORBES, Crain's Chicago Business, Black Enterprise, The Chicago Tribune, and more.
