Our bodies go through so much during pregnancy and postpartum. Our hormones fluctuate like no other time in our lives, which can all take a significant toll on mothers. Actress and entrepreneur Ashley Greene Khoury knows this firsthand as a new mother to her daughter, Kingsley. Even before becoming a mother, Ashley became highly passionate about being a reproductive health advocate after her own pursuit of a pharmaceutical-free lifestyle (including hormonal birth control). Through her experiences, they have led her to start her own company that helps others with their hormonal health.
Who is Ashley Greene Khoury?
Ashley Greene Khoury rapidly rose to fame following her portrayal of Alice Cullen in the ‘Twilight’ movie franchise and immediately solidified herself as a champion for women from all walks of life. For over a decade, she has aligned with charities and movements that support and empower women (like Donate My Dress, No More, A21), cementing herself as a trusted advocate for wellness, femininity, and gender equality.
More recently, Ashley co-founded Hummingway, a brand with the goal of transforming how all women (and anyone with a period) view their own reproductive health. Hummingway is laser-focused on providing its customers with a suite of innovative, non-toxic, effective products designed to support your hormonal health.
Ashley launched Hummingway with her sister-in-law, Olivia Khoury, in 2021. The duo is on a mission to have a positive impact and offer alternative choices for menstruators everywhere who are frustrated with the industry’s lack of comprehensive solutions. Through Hummingway, Ashley is eager to leverage her work ethic, network, and platform for this powerful cause with a commitment to excellence and building trust.
