“When you look different, you get bullied and if it could happen to me, it could happen to anyone,” Dr. Ashley Perkins

Ashley Perkins is a force in the mental health advocacy sphere. Founder of the non-profit, We Matter Too, she shares her story to inspire as well as to let people know that doing the work is hard in the moment and that difficulty is temporary.

What I learned from talking with Dr. Ashley is that people who share their stories have an enormous amount of empathy, grace, and give people hope. Her passion and conviction come through in the energy when she speaks as well as actions from Ted Talks to her presence on social media. Give a listen and be ready to be inspired!
