So what does a “Judgy Christian’s worst nightmare” even mean?

➡️ Loving those who think differently (even if I don’t love their behaviors) and those who sin (aka ALL of us) 😂❤️

➡️ Or at bare minimum, respecting the fact that God gave us all free will- so it’s certainly not for me to be the judge 🙏🏼

I ran from Jesus because of Judgy Christians 🤷🏼‍♀️

I was completely atheist, then agnostic- after attending catholic school for several years. I was an altar girl, went to CCD, and it just never resonated for me

👉🏼 I used almost every substance under the sun to cope with big emotions, believed I was too far gone, engaged in too much promiscuous activity in my early years,, was cruel when my heart was hearting, and even mocked prayer for most of my life. It’s not flattering, but it’s true

I learned that sometimes God uses the most ‘unqualified’ to make change in the world. Welp, that’s me. I’m not the perfect person by any means (spoiler alert: no one is- some just believe their own BS) 🤷🏼‍♀️

You want to know the truth about how I became to believe in God? By seeing how real Satan was. Legitimately. Satan isn’t a man in red with horns, far more deceptive than that

It sure was a roundabout way of getting there, but I have arrived. And with that said, I refuse to be part of a church that needs to condemn others. We are not taught to do anything other than pray & care for others. Stay in your own hoola hoop

I am not against those of different beliefs of lifestyles. It is not my place to convince others. I will share with those who care to hear, but more importantly, I will live by example

Forcing Jesus down my throat never worked out well in my case. But the compassion I’ve been met with on my journey has been life-changing

Jesus became my role model in 2020 when I was reminded he took care of the lepers vs. shunning them. That is why I decided to become a nurse after all, to help those who are struggling or unwell- not to condemn them

You don’t have to like someone’s choices or behaviors to have love and respect for them as a human being. We were given free will

And many of us are lost. Perhaps those people need compassion more than judgement ❤️

📣 PSA: Compassionate care for ALL means exactly that.

Not just for those that medical ‘professionals’ like or agree with. That isn’t being a medical professional at all.

➡️ Discrimination of ANY kind is not ethically permitted as medical professionals per our code of ethics, but some providers have clearly forgotten.

It’s been escalating over the years. And we wonder why mistrust in the medical system is so high? 🤔

I am all for freedom of speech, and agreeing to disagree. But it’s sociopathic to wish death or harm on anyone, especially the vulnerable you are there to provide care for as a medical professionals.

So since we need a reminder, we are to provide compassionate care regardless of:
❤️ Someone’s ability to pay/financial status
❤️ If a citizen or not
❤️ Religious beliefs
❤️ Political beliefs
❤️ Vaccination choices
❤️ Gender
❤️ Sexuality
❤️ Race
❤️ Age
❤️ Being incarcerated

Medical professionals when I first started understood this, but social media has made people more divided and hateful than ever before. And this is NOT everyone. But even one person like this can cause massive direct and collateral damage.

I don’t support murder, but I am called to provide compassionate care to someone who has murdered- yes.

We are there to be patient advocates, not bullies.

We are there to put our personal beliefs aside and provide care for the INDIVIDUAL- even if they have an attitude. Many aren’t their best when sick/unwell/terrified.

We have lost the mark. While I can’t give an answer to all of the problems in the world, this is one Provision of the Code of Ethics that we are all held to, yet that is not what we are seeing.

I went back to work in a hospital 2024-2025 and was pleased at how much patient right to autonomy was honored. It was refreshing to see, but it is honestly the bare minimum we should expect.

Nurses and doctors: are you living up to this ethical standard? Maybe it’s time for a new role if you can’t do this.

Patients: Never be afraid to advocate for yourself, ask questions, and remember you have the right to autonomy and self-determination. Even if they think it’s the “wrong choice”. It’s your choice. Remember that 🙏🏼❤️

Personally, I don’t donate to charities or places where I don’t actually know where the money is going. Don’t want to give to the government to handle for us.

So when I say the Lamb family is 1) kind and loving 2) has a son who needs medical assistance 3) has a small business Prepped AZ that is truly one of the best parts of living in Arizona- Godsend, I really think supporting other people directly is so important.

If it speaks to you, please consider checking this link out and hearing more about their son’s story. I am so grateful for this community and want to use my platform to help real people ❤️❤️

Hello family and friends, we have an important request to share with you. Our little Jameson Lamb, a bright and joyful 4-year-old, has been diagnosed with Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (SPG3A de novo). This rare neuro-degenerative disorder has no known treatment or cure. As a family living in

On today’s episode of “This isn’t a cult” 🙃

Something may not be right for me, and I don’t believe that makes it wrong for others to believe in or to choose

Something may be right for me, and I don’t believe that makes it wrong for others to not believe in or choose

I would love a world where we shift to more personal accountability vs. expecting daddy gov to save any of us 😘

➡️ Do we really need to give more of our money to a system that has failed many of us (and others) time and time again?

The more that we outsource, the more they will come to “help” us.

What’s the saying? One of the most terrifying things is “Hi, I’m the government and I’m here to help!” 😂

This hasn’t worked for many of us, even if we find occasional things we do agree with. It’s all part of the game IMO. And we (humanity) are the ones losing

❤️ I believe the answer is MORE personal responsibility and LESS dependency (not all-or-nothings)

Time and a place for sure (same with conventional healthcare), AND it can be a slippery slope. I don’t want it to continue to have more say and power regarding our lives.

We seem to agree with the government, until it’s something we feel strongly about. Unless we all become robots and chip our brains, we will never all agree.

Since I’d like to not be taken down by divide-and-conquer tactics, then let’s do our best to stay true to ourselves and not try to control what others/think/do/feel.

There is so much freedom in that 🙌🏼❤️

🙈 The curb appeal is going down the drain because we are allowing Hondas in this community.

You better believe that I had something to say to the manager of our community HOA meeting about this yesterday.

No shade to anyone who drives a Honda, because I drive one LOL

At first, I thought this was a real conversation because well, I also live in Scottsdale and IYKYK 😂

👉🏼 This is a total joke and the original is AI.

See you at next week’s meeting! 📅🙌🏼😂

HOW OUR LIFE FEELS IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN HOW IT LOOKS

I used to believe if I had
👉🏼 “a respected career”
👉🏼 “the best clothes”
👉🏼 “a certain aesthetic”
👉🏼 “a big, beautiful house”
👉🏼 “a handsome partner”
👉🏼 “a certain body type”
👉🏼 “more money”
👉🏼 “more followers”
…that I would be happy 🙃

Guess what- I eventually experienced all of those things and sadly, was still miserable on the inside

I am grateful for that humbling lesson. Because it led me back to the reality that happiness, joy, and fulfillment do not come from these external things

Sure, we get a dopamine hit, but that isn’t true happiness. It was chasing these dopamine hits until I hit a wall

Eventually, I had to realize the common denominator in my misery was me. I had learned to not love or respect myself. I was the one getting in my own way, yet I focused on things outside of me

I had to ask myself, “Who am I without these things?”

I had to face myself. Habits, actions/inactions, patterns, thoughts, reactions, and beliefs

I had to learn to totally and completely love and accept myself unconditionally- not just when I reached a certain goal. This was a trap!

Some of the happiest people I know have the least of the things mentioned above + make the most of their circumstances

So this is what I chose to do. So much of the work I needed wasn’t to add more, but letting go of beliefs that held me back

Don’t believe everything you think. I call it “lies from the enemy.” Some call it limiting beliefs. Some call it their higher vs. lower self

I wasn’t going to get where I wanted to be in life without taking full accountability + responsibility for my life

Change is hard, but sometimes staying the same is even more hard

I realized no one can make me feel happy. It’s up to me. It’s been a non-linear journey, but shedding all of the stories that told me I wasn’t enough or worthy were absolute LIES

So the next time you think that new thing will suddenly solve all your problems, first look within. It takes courage. It is not comfortable, but it does free us 🙌🏼

Loving reminder to not outsource your happiness or worth. Much love ❤️

🎤 FIRST EPISODE OF IS LIVE!!

It is finally here!!! 🙌🏼☕️ Had many curveballs and shared about them! So much to update you all on in this first intro episode!!

➡️ Comment ROAST and I’ll send you the link to the episode!

I started the podcast in 2023, and it was called the High-Maintenance Hippie podcast.

I’ve grown and evolved, and so has the podcast.

New name, new mission, new chapter begins!

On this episode, I shared more about the timeline over the last year with the breaking, getting back together, engagement, health curveballs, ruling out breast cancer (but also opting out of many conventional interventions), and plans for the podcast!!

I am SO excited and if you love the podcast, it would mean the world to me for you to leave a rating and review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.

You can also watch the episode with video on the Ashley Taylor Wellness YouTube channel!

I’m also lightly roasting some things each episode- so turn in and hear the first one!

God gave me the gift of speaking, and I love storytelling, empowering others, and educating on other options!

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and would love to hear if there’s anything you want us to lightly roast on the pod ;)

I say us, as will be my co-host on many of the episodes. A coffee themed podcast was inspired by our IG live series called Coffee Talk back in the day where we used to hold our enemas on IG live for 12 min. Then you know what time it was 😂

Let’s get weird, let’s get healthy, let’s get resilient, and let’s get empowered!! ❤️

It’s my 38th birthday today! 🎉

Normally, I don’t make a big deal out of my birthday. It often falls on Thanksgiving, and usually put off celebrating as many are traveling or with family.

But after so much happening this year, what a reminder to CELEBRATE OUR GOD-GIVEN LIFE!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

One of the biggest gifts I gave myself was the gift of ditching Feel Free. For the record, it started great and turned me into a shell of a human. A BRUTAL, medically-assisted withdrawal. I truly don’t know if I’d be around to write this post if I hadn’t let go of it. Please let this be a cautionary tale for yourself and your children.

I have spent a good portion of my life numbing, and the GIFT I want to give myself this year is commitment to clarity and purpose 🙌🏼

I am choosing to say no to more of the things that block me from connection with others, with myself, and with God.

I am choosing to stand firm in what is right for my health and wellbeing, even if others don’t understand.

I have chosen to have full faith during this breast/axillary abnormal lymph node situation. That came so easily to me. I am THANKFUL for this experience and it has taught me so much.

I pray that I am used as a example of overcoming, being resilient, and finding the discernment to know what is the right path to take moving forward 🙏🏼❤️

Life can change in an instant. This year showed me that I can be very patient, despite uncertainty. I am committing to my 38th year to be one of softening, letting go, and continuing to learn to let love in 😍

Thank you all for your endless support over the years. I am so grateful for this community. You all have shared so much with me that has been extremely valuable.

I will be sharing more about this last year on the first episode of coming out November 2025! So VERY soon!! Obviously, my health had to take the front seat for a bit. But so much to share and excited to keep learning and growing!

And big shout out to my mom for choosing life as a teenager, even when she did not have certainty. I am thankful for my friends and family who have shown up for me over the years. My heart is full and I love you all 😭❤️
