On the Table: Designing and Cultivating Human Connection Through Everyday Objects with Ashley Gould

Margo is joined by Ashley Gould, the founder of Âme Atendre™, a brand dedicated to creating thoughtfully designed everyday tabletop objects that foster connection and empathy. After a decade-long career as a lawyer and executive, Ashley pivoted toward a more personal mission—bringing people together through intentional design and meaningful conversation.

Margo and Ashley discuss:

Ashley's journey from law and corporate leadership to launching Âme Atendre™.
How her mother's passion for community and gathering inspired her vision for an elevated tabletop brand.
The philosophy behind Âme Atendre™, including the role of thoughtfully crafted objects in building deeper human connections.
The fascinating field of neuroaesthetics and its connection to Ashley's work.
The power of conversations often left off the table and how respect and curiosity can bridge gaps in understanding.
Sneak peeks into exciting Âme Atendre™ projects in development, including a "death box" for intentional legacy planning, a sleek metal wastebasket, and a new hand-blown crystal vase.
Insights from Ashley's podcast, On the Table with Ashley, and its mission to foster curiosity and reduce judgment.
