About Ashley
Ashley Johnson is an author, speaker, and voiceover artist whose work is shaped by one of life's most challenging experiences: parenting children through prematurity and congenital heart conditions.
That journey led him to write Tiny Warriors: Lena and Luca and share his story across BBC Radio, podcasts like In The Business, LeadTheWay, and All4Inclusion, connecting with audiences who value authenticity and resilience.
With 24+ years in tech before pivoting to media work, Ashley brings a unique perspective to everything he does. He also founded Haijahr, a corporate social responsibility consultancy helping businesses create genuine community impact.
Ashley is available for podcast appearances, voiceover work, narration, and speaking engagements.
