In this episode of the Women of Inspiration⢠Podcast, we speak with Ashley Ottensen - Actor, Tik Tok (IG) Influencer (1.2 million), and Two-time best actress recipient for her role as Becca in " A Love Not Lost " (Indie short film written by John Anthony), Women of Inspiration Finalist.
Mom, wife, and actor. I enjoy making stories that help people feel something. My social media is focused on comedy as I believe everyone should have a smile at least once a day. A born hustler, mother, and entertainer, I see the odds and strive to beat them. The word "No" is a driving force rather than a word that gets me down. If one door closes I always look for the next one to open or simply create my own door.
Never say never because the impossible is happening every day. The life of an unknown actor is a tough one. You're constantly working to get seen. Imagine a career where interviewing is the job. That is what auditioning is. Many actors, including your favorites, have spent years grinding to get to where they are. Before COVID my career looked promising, I was receiving bigger and bigger audition opportunities, and I was booking them. Theater, film, commercials, I had contracts with all of them, and then COVID struck and every single contract fell through and was canceled. It was very disheartening; I'd worked so hard to build myself up only to have something I couldn't control come and knock it all down.
That was until my sister told me about TikTok. At first, I was hesitant because at the time I thought TikTok was only for weird dances and lip syncing but eventually, the cabin fever set in, covid wasn't going away anytime soon, and I desperately needed a creative outlet. So I started lipsyncing until the thought occurred to me, why am I repeating someone else's performance, if I'm going to be a content creator then I want what I create to come from me.
So I began writing and making my own skits. They've evolved over time as I became more confident in my abilities. I've made friends who collaborated with me and it started to feel a little bit like being a working actor again. With time and consistency my following on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube grew exponentially and with it has come opportunities for more acting work and to no longer be considered an unknown actor. This entire experience has taught me that through hard work, consistency, and an unfailing belief in oneself you can accomplish anything you've set your mind to. Everyone's path is different and comparison is the thief of joy, a success story is meant for everyone.
Never give up, don't let yourself or the nay-sayers get in your way, and break that glass ceiling.

Sharon Brownâs journey in the food business began when she resolved her sonâs chronic health issues using real food and bone broth. This experience compelled Sharon to become a Clinical Nutritionist and open a private practice. Sharon believed that true bone broth should be available to everyone and, so, Bonafide Provisions was born. Bonafideâs frozen bone broth launched nationally in 2016, due to Sharonâs drive to fill an unmet consumer need. In 2019, Sharon enlisted Amanda Luke, a seasoned general manager with 15+ years of experience in consumer products and retail, to take the helm as CEO. Together as President and CEO, Sharon and Amanda guide the strategic and creative vision of Bonafide Provisions, partnering with each team to achieve business growth and deliver on Bonafideâs mission to help everyone achieve wellness through the power of food. Sharon shapes Bonafideâs innovation strategy and builds key relationships with customers and partners, while Amanda guides the growth objectives of the business and manages financial performance. In addition, Sharon serves as the face of the brand and is a trailblazer on social media, thanks to her expertise in nutrition, her on-camera presence and her passion for staying connected with Bonafideâs loyal consumers.
