Welcome to the HR Business Blueprint Podcast. I'm Nikki Masterman, founder and CEO of Inspired HR.
In this episode, I’m joined by Ashleigh Wright, Managing Director at Westray Recruitment. Ashleigh and I first connected through the Entrepreneurs’ Forum, and from the very beginning, I was struck by her sense of humour, strong values, and the natural alignment in how we both approach business and people.
Ashleigh shares her journey of stepping into the family business, what it means to lead with purpose, and how working with family has shaped both her professional and personal growth. We explore the realities of mixing family and business, from navigating decision-making and building trust, to managing time off and maintaining balance (especially when holidays are high on the priority list!).
We also talk about the evolving partnership between Inspired HR and Westray Recruitment, and how our collaboration has supported team development and a strong talent pipeline.
Tune in to hear an open conversation about leadership, legacy, and building strong partnerships built on trust.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
