Finding Purpose Through Family with Ayshea McCormack

Welcome to our very first episode of Voices on the Side. I am incredibly excited to share with you my conversation with my first guest, who just happens to be my sister in law. Ayshea McCormack is the founder of The Small Home, a collection of beautifully-crafted interior, lifestyle, and clothing pieces, handmade by artisans from all around the world. She has two daughters—my gorgeous, extremely beloved nieces, and what you see on her impeccably curated Instagram actually depicts her real life, fashion, and home. I’m telling you, it’s the truth. We stayed at their house in London over Christmas and if I left something out on the kitchen counter and walked away for a few minutes and returned, it would almost always have been cleared away! I have been inspired by Ayshea since I first met her. She has a palpable strength and confidence, borne of having left home at only 16 years old and solidified by motherhood. We talk about mental health, menopause, religion, and, one of Ayshea’s biggest messages—resilience. Oh, and she has the loveliest English accent which is just so nice to listen to. Please enjoy this absolutely empowering conversation with Ayshea McCormack.
