I had the distinct and very special pleasure to have Ashley Taylor as our guest for this episode. Her transparency and authenticity shines through in this interview.

Ashley Taylor, also known by her instagram handle @ashleytaylorwellness, aka the high maintenance hippie, is a Board-Certified Registered Nurse of 10 years and Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach. In 2020 her Instagram platform blew up - and she shares in this interview that the growth in audience began to skyrocket just after a very courageous decision in March 2020 to speak publicly with full authenticity sharing perspectives and insights that were not only controversial to the mainstream narrative but also around themes that others were being censored and de-platformed for expressing.

We talk a bit about in this episode, during a time in 2020 when my eyes and heart were opening even more to what was taking place and feeling quite alone in that awakening, Ashley was one of the brave individuals to speak publicly that resonated and helped to inspire me that I was not as alone as it seemed.

When I learned about Ashley’s path to acquiring additional coaching certifications including the National Board Certification for Health & Wellness Coaches, she became one of the individuals on my short wish list to meet and interview.  Although, I had no idea what to expect from our conversation and discussion around her Coaching journey…what I did discover was striking, as it is crystal clear that she is called to the Coaching profession and path.  I could see, hear, and feel that while Ashley clearly has a variety of skills and intelligence, above all else she is in her purpose as a professional Holistic Coach.  Ashley’s perspective is also very aligned in support of the CfF mission and vision!

Given my passion for the Coaching field and professional role, it was exhilarating to discover this, plus I so appreciate the opportunity to experience firsthand her warmth, kindness, flexibility, and open-heartedness.  Having this conversation with Ashley is EXACTLY why I finally launched this podcast - there are many individuals we might reach, and hopefully inspire towards the Well-being/Coaching/Counseling work in a way that is aligned and purposeful for both bridging and building the path forward in service of mankind and our future generations.

I have an even greater respect for Ashley now after getting to connect with her personally, and I know that as you tune in, you will be pleasantly surprised at how much she expresses and in such a way that illuminates her passion and purpose for the courageous life she has created in alignment with her values.  I truly hope you will join us in this entire conversation, and then, if inspired, please share it with others.

Lots of love & gratitude,
