Autobiography: business & industry; Memoirs; Assertiveness, motivation & self-esteem

For teen mum to boardroom leadership, Kimberley Ashwin's Journey is anything but ordinary.

Teen Mum to CEO is raw, powerful, and deeply personal memoir of resilience, healing and transformation. Kimberley Ashwin shares her story of growing up in a chaotic and abusive home, becoming a mother at 16, and defying every expectation placed on upon her.

With honesty and heart, she takes readers through the highs and lows of navigating motherhood, education, neurodivergency, and leadership- While building a nationally recognised organisation from her kitchen table.

This book is not a fairy take. It's a testament to grit, growth and the power of saying 'yes' before you're ready. Kimberley's story is for anyone who's ever felt underestimated, overlooked, or like they didn't belong. It's for the underdogs, the dreamers, and those determined to break cycles and build something better.

Whether you're a young mum, a neurodivergent individual, a professional, or simply someone searching for hope, Teen Mum to CEO will leave you inspired to believe in your own strength- and to write your own ending.
