About the Podcast

She Wears the Pants

She Wears the Pants is the podcast for the women building more than businesses—they’re building identities, empires, and legacies.

Hosted by globally recognized business advisor, multi-business founder, and start-up investor Ashley Deland, this show lives at the intersection of strategy, structure, and self. Each week, Ashley pulls back the curtain on what it truly takes for women to scale companies that are financially sound, spiritually aligned, energetically sustainable, and structurally unshakeable.

This is where high-growth women founders come for boardroom-level strategy, identity evolution, feminine leadership, and the inner work required to hold the success they’re building.

Because strategy means nothing if the woman behind it can’t hold it.
