Welcome my fellow CREATIVES it's your host, Ashley Daishell. I've created "Living Outside the Box" as a safe space for creatives to come and discuss the many things that we go through mentally, physically, spiritually and financially. Being a creative myself I know that we can have some very "HIGH" highs & "LOW" lows. My guess & I will breakdown what it means to be a creative & how we all can thrive as creatives, while taking care of our WHOLE self.
You will see some familiar faces from season 1, however you won't hear or see what we'll be discussing this season anywhere else.
I know you hear people say it a lot but there is nothing more freeing than being WHOLE, creative and your authentic self. I hope that through this show that my guess and I, inspire, provoke, and motivate others to be WHOLE & authentically themselves in their creativity.

Hey Good People! š
Your girl is officially 5 months post-op from gastric bypass surgery, and what a journey it has been! Every day isnāt easy, and some days require a little more grace than others, but I can honestly say this has been one of the most rewarding decisions Iāve made for my health.
Iām learning that true wealth starts with health, and Iām so grateful and blessed to be on this path. One of my favorite things to do is take a trip down memory lane and look back at old pictures. Sometimes I have to do a double-take and remind myself just how far Iāve come! š
This journey has taught me that progress isnāt always perfect, but it is possible. And while Iām still growing, learning, and adjusting, life feels like itās just beginning. Hereās to becoming healthier, stronger, and more aligned with the life God has for me.
Keep going, Good People. The journey is worth it. āØ

After so much back and forth, prayer, and research, I decided to put my health first so my family could receive the best version of me and so I could fully walk in everything God called me to be. ā¤ļø
It wasnāt an easy decision, and this journey hasnāt always been smooth, but Iām sooo glad I decided to become a #BariatricBaddie šāØ
The only things Iām focused on taking daily are my vitamins, hitting my protein goals, and staying hydrated! š§šŖš¾
I started this journey in October 2025 at 308 lbs. On April 22, I was 274 lbs. As of today, Iām 234 lbs. š„¹šš¾
Thatās 74 pounds gone and a whole lot of confidence, discipline, and gratitude gained. God has been faithful every step of the way. šš¾
Feeling truly blessed, grateful, and excited for whatās ahead. š #WeightLossJourney #BariatricSurgery #consistencyiskey #gastricbypass

5 years in⦠and whew, this health journey has been anything but cute š but itās been REAL. Over the past five years, itās been a long, hard road trying to maintain, stay focused, and stay consistent. Iāve tried multiple diets the ālife-changingā ones, the trending ones, the āthis time for sureā ones⦠yeah, all of them š. Some worked for a season, some didnāt at all, but every single one taught me something about myself.
I donāt have a one-size-fits-all routine or secret sauce, because truthfully? Iāve failed plenty of times and had to keep picking myself back up. And honestly, thatās the part people donāt post. The restart. The setbacks. The mental battles. The learning curves. But Iām committed until I reach my ultimate goal not just weight loss, but being healthy through it all, mind, body, and spirit.
Transparency is hard. Discipline is hard. Consistency is even harder. But Iām choosing progress over perfection and grace over quitting. And I donāt mind sharing along the way because I know for so many of us⦠this journey looks exactly like this.
If youāre still trying, restarting, or just showing up youāre not behind. Youāre right on time š¤āØ #HealthJourney #WeightLossJourney #RealLifeWellness #ProgressNotPerfection #TikTokFitness HealingInProgress BlackWellness ConsistencyOverEverything

Yesterday evening was amazingā¦.. Iām still trying to take it all inā¦. The journey has began!
Hello My Name is Ashley Thompson and Iām Ms. Twin City ( Winston-Salem) Plus America.
My Platform is: āLiving Outside the Box in Creativityā
It is important to me to have a safe space for now and future innovators to be themselves authentically. Through their creativity they can use what they know to help others grow and when life challenges arise I want them to continue to inspire through their art unapologetically. Prolific people should be celebrated and honored for their gifts & talents. No matter the age, race, gender, nor size.
From January to April (4 months) you can vote for me as āPeopleās Choiceā. It is $5 per vote.
The state pageant is March 18 in Winston Salem. Virtual tickets are $20, in-person tickets are $40.
If you cannot attend, BUT you still want to support my platform you can:
*Purchase sponsorship packages or send āwell wishesā that will be published in our beautiful pageant program. āNo amount is too small.ā

Also, DM me for details regarding prices of sponsorship packages, etc.
I thank you all in advance for your love and support!
Ms. Twin City Plus America
