Her advocacy is steeped in subverting the colonized norms of the mental health industry. Championing education and access to mindfulness and well-being practices that remind us all of our innate power to shape our lives.  Her approach is as diverse as it is inclusive, using art and music as tools to invite wellness into culture and the everyday places that are just as vital as the therapy room.

Today, Ashley serves as the Head of Wellness at True Voice, a wellness app helping to cultivate well-being through mindfulness and meditation practices. Her passion for this role is fueled by a commitment to serve overlooked communities, particularly Black and Brown folks, in the wellness space. More than just an app, she is cultivating a sanctuary of self discovery, healing and empowerment for all to feel at home in.

A visionary, Ashley’s work is imagining a new way forward, where well-being is accessible to all people and not just for the few.

Shabazz Larkin is an artist and activist interested in creating images of black culture and contemporary spirituality. Shabazz is a multi-disciplinary artist, painting vibrant portraiture on canvas, typographic printing techniques and film. His practice of vandalizing photographs, overwhelming use of color and bold typography, at times feel like visual concepts better suited for the editorial section of Rolling Stone. 

This technique only veils Larkin’s true intention to explore societal  issues of race, justice and religion. Shabazz is most known for his “Black Magic” collection, a series of portraits that capture the beauty of resilience in black culture. Larkin’s newest work is a reckless abandon into pop-art — he’s begun writing notes from God and placing them around Nashville, TN. 

He is also a student of mindfulness and the head of content for the True Voicewellness app.In This Episode:If you’d like to support what we’re doing here, you can join the Patreon.
