Welcome back to This Is Where We Heal!
Today’s episode kicks off something brand new!
Introducing Hot Girls Cry Too, a fun, lighthearted, and honest series hosted by Ashley and her bestie Gabrielle.

In this first episode, the girls open up about what inspired Hot Girls Cry Too and Hot Girls Build STL — diving into the realities behind social media, mental health, self-sabotage, and what it really means to “have it all together.”

It’s chaotic, heartfelt, and full of laughter as Ashley and Gabrielle talk about entrepreneurship, emotional ups and downs, ADHD struggles, and learning to embrace their authentic selves — unfiltered, unpolished, and totally human.

Because let’s be honest… hot girls cry, heal, and build too. 💅❤️

Welcome to This Is Where We Heal with Ashley Taylor-Maland!
In this week’s episode, Ashley sits down with Sherown Campbell for an inspiring and deeply vulnerable conversation about resilience, recovery, and finding purpose after life-altering tragedy.

After a freak wrestling accident left Sean paralyzed from the shoulders down, his entire world shifted overnight. Doctors didn’t know if he would ever walk on his own again. But Sean’s journey is one of defying odds, choosing faith over fear, and learning to rebuild his identity step by step.

Together, Sean and Ashley explore what it means to grieve the life you thought you’d have while embracing the one you’ve been given. They dive into the mental and emotional battles of recovery, the importance of community and vulnerability, and how documenting his healing online opened doors to connect with and inspire countless others walking through similar pain.

Welcome to This Is Where We Heal with Ashley Taylor-Maland!
In this week’s episode, Ashley sits down with returning guest Xavier Smith, also known as 'Xaviertainment', for a raw and eye-opening conversation about modern dating, “simp culture,” and the hidden dynamics that keep us stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns.

Xavier unpacks the rise of “simp culture” and how it reflects deeper wounds around self-worth, validation, and the need to be chosen. Together, he and Ashley dive into the double standards of dating, the traps of over-giving, and why so many people find themselves playing roles instead of building authentic connections.

This episode challenges cultural narratives about masculinity, femininity, and love while offering powerful insights on self-responsibility, attraction, and emotional safety. Whether you’re navigating heartbreak, tired of performative dating, or ready to rewrite the story of love in your life, this conversation will leave you with the clarity and tools to heal.

Welcome to This Is Where We Heal with Ashley Taylor-Maland!
In this week’s episode, Ashley sits down with Annie Yatch, founder of NorthStar Leadership School, for a powerful conversation about healing trauma, breaking self-sabotage, and stepping into your fullest potential.

Annie shares her unique approach to uncovering “root trauma patterns” that silently shape our relationships, success, and self-worth. She explains how the subconscious mind, formed by stories we created as children, can keep us trapped in cycles of fear, abandonment, or over-giving, even when we’re fully aware we want something different.

This episode offers deep insights, relatable stories, and practical tools for anyone who has ever felt “not enough.” It’s an invitation to slow down, get curious, and create the kind of love, success, and life you truly deserve.
