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 a world that feels loud, divided, and overwhelming, it can be hard to know where to place your attention — especially when your own life feels just as chaotic. Between nonstop schedules, kids’ sports, co-parenting, work, relationships, and personal dreams, the noise doesn’t just live in the headlines… it lives in our homes and our bodies too.
In this episode, Ashton reflects on a season of life where her calendar feels relentless and the world feels unsettled — and how she’s learning that healing doesn’t always come from big moments or escapes. Sometimes, the real medicine is found in the ordinary.
She shares honestly about navigating a packed family schedule, relying on a true village, why her circle has gotten smaller, and the daily practices that help her stay grounded — prayer, boundaries, rest, and choosing herself without guilt.
This episode is a reminder that you don’t have to wait for life to slow down to find peace. If your life feels full and you’re doing the best you can, this one’s for you.
Because sometimes, the ordinary moments are the medicine.
