The Medicine Spoke
he Medicine Spoke is a soul-baring podcast exploring healing at its root—from the womb to the wild unknown. Hosted by a mother of five and nurse turned spiritual seeker, this show dives into the raw, often unspoken layers of trauma, emotional inheritance, psychedelics, and rebirth.
Each episode is a blend of storytelling, reflection, and remembrance—sometimes solo, sometimes with guides, therapists, or fellow travelers on the path. From a life-altering Ibogaine journey in Mexico to breathwork, rage release, motherhood, and the echoes of what we felt before we had language—this is a space for the ones who never felt quite at home in the surface world.
Whether you’ve sat with plant medicine, cried in a therapist’s office, or screamed into a pillow at 2 a.m., you’ll feel seen here.

In this episode, I break down the truth about one of the most powerful plant medicines on the planet—something most people have never heard of, especially if you grew up in a small town like I did. This is the episode I wish someone had made for me before I ever stepped into this world.
Ibogaine is known for its impact on trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, addiction, and deep emotional healing. Whether you’re simply curious or exploring this medicine for your own life, this episode offers a grounded, honest introduction to what Ibogaine actually is and why people feel called to it.
Inside this episode, we explore:
• Iboga vs Ibogaine and how the medicine is really taken
• How Ibogaine works in the brain and nervous system
• Neuroplasticity, dopamine resetting, and nor-ibogaine
• Purging, ataxia, breathwork, and what the experience truly feels like
• Why precise dosing and medical screening are essential
• Preparation, integration, and choosing a safe treatment center
• Program lengths, detox considerations, and medical supervision
• Clinical trials happening in the U.S.
• The stigma, the misconceptions, and who Ibogaine is actually for
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or curious about deeper healing… this episode is for you.
