Welcome to This Is Where We Heal with Ashley Taylor-Maland! In this powerful episode, I sit down with my coach and manager, Jamie Thurber, to have an honest conversation about trauma, healing, and the narratives we create around abuse. Many of us have encountered painful relationships, but how do we truly heal from them? Jamie and I explore the difference between those who intentionally manipulate and those who act from unresolved trauma. More importantly, we discuss why healing isn’t just about understanding the abuser—but about reclaiming our own power and self-worth.

We dive into:

✅ The difference between trauma-driven behaviors and true narcissism

✅ Why labeling your abuser isn’t the same as healing

✅ How unhealed wounds keep us stuck in toxic cycles

✅ Why personal accountability is key to breaking free

✅ The power of shifting your story from blame to self-growth If you've ever felt trapped in the pain of your past or struggled to move on, this episode is for you. 💙
