Ashley of Winged Alchemy met our host by accident – at a Reiki healing circle where Kayleigh fell asleep in a room full of strangers. She woke up with a new friend, and a guest for the podcast. Ashley is a mystic, an ordained shamanic minister, and a Reiki and yoga practitioner who takes an interfaith approach to spirituality. She built that mystic path out of real struggles of her own, the kind that took years to work through. Now she's writing a thesis toward ordained interfaith ministry on top of everything else she’s doing in the energy healing space.

Ashley traces the line from her own dark night of the soul to the healing business she opened out of her Richmond apartment in 2016. From there, the conversation moves into shamanic tracking, soul retrieval, and the interfaith theology behind Ashley’s ordination thesis. Ashley also gets practical – going through the steps she takes before she creates content, builds teaching, and holding her ground if someone accuses yoga to be devil worship.
