Our first guest, Ashley Blum, suffered through years of struggles.

From losing her father at age 11, to being bullied on and offline.

Her story of fighting back, and showing amazing resiliency was the perfect way to kick off of TeenSpeak!

Now a Freshman in college, at Hofstra University, she shares her journey with bullying and anxiety, overcoming those obstacles by reaching goals and embracing uniqueness.

She is very passionate about social media and cyber bullying. She turned to music, singing and songwriting as well as her own podcast show to help cope and spread inspiration to others.

Ashley also shares about having a disability and that being different doesn’t make you weak.
