This week on The ShanZee Vibes Podcast, we’re sitting down with Ashleigh Hillier — peer support specialist, mental health advocate, and survivor.
Ashleigh works on the frontlines of the Canadian Mental Health Association, and in this episode, she opens up about what it really means to show up for people in crisis, the life-or-death power of being heard, and her own story navigating addiction, trauma, and healing.
💬 We talk about:
Why lived experience is more powerful than any degree
Addiction, mental illness, and being failed by the system
Finding purpose in your pain
What real support actually looks like
This episode is raw. It’s necessary. And it’s proof that the people who’ve been through hell are the ones most equipped to walk others through it.
