9 Golden Questions with ::: Ashley Quincey
We visited The Conservationist founder and fellow eco-conscious advocate, Ashley Quincey, at her home in San Pedro, CA. After working in online retail for almost a decade, Ashley paired her knowledge of the consumers’ impact on our world with animal advocacy to create her online resource for elevated eco-friendly brands that are dedicated to supporting global conservation efforts. She is a driven, passionate, and fiery Leo friend that inspires us daily.
How do you anoint your Self?
Through different daily rituals that allow me to practice some kind of self care. In the morning I listen to the prayer app churchhome, do my morning and nightly skin care routines, and drink my Anoint Daily in a quiet place of the house.
I just got a sound bowl from the Long Beach flea market that I’ve been super into. I use it throughout the day to prompt a new direction or activity, while speaking kind words to myself each time.
What is the best piece of advice that you’ve received, or would like to share?
It’s important to realize what you do makes a difference, and it’s up to you to decide what kind of difference you want to make. I learned this from Jane Goodall, and drives every choice I make.
When was the last time you really smiled?
On the dance floor with my husband last night.
What is your morning or evening ritual, and when & why did you adopt it?
Every night I go for a walk with the dogs, and take advantage of being able to hear the sea. I indulge in a robust skin care regimen, including skin care devices. This time is not just skin deep; it allows me to connect with my Self, and worship my divine feminine power.
What traits do you love most about your Self?
My compassion. Its also been instilled in me to be an advocate; and I love that I have a sense of purpose. I love that I love love. I love my Self so this is a hard question; we could be here a while, and we will just leave it with the first two points. :)
What is your go-to thing to share at a dinner party (could be a food, drink, conversation topic, energy, joke, etc etc.) and why?
I bring happy energy to the party and good conversation. I love interacting with people and learning their stories. Hopefully there is a cross-sharing of each other’s magic.
How do you re-center and find balance?
Getting outside. Being in nature. Taking my shoes off and putting them in the grass or sand. When I don’t have time for that I love a good medication. Meditation is a crucial part of my daily routine.
How do you embrace uncertainty in your life?
Prayer.
What are three things you swear by?
Rescue dogs, eco-friendly products, and family.
