This first episode is a raw introduction to who I am and why I started The Medicine Spoke.

I’m Ashton Daugherty — a mama of five and former nurse of nearly 15 years who walked away from the medical world to explore what true healing really means. After years of burnout, I followed an inner calling that led me to Mexico for an Ibogaine journey that cracked me open and helped me begin again — as a woman, a mother, and a soul finally listening.

In this opening episode, I share my story — the breaking, the remembering, and the moment the medicine spoke. It’s an invitation to slow down, tune in, and hear what your own medicine might be saying to you.
