This spotlight episode of The Dodi Connection peels back the layers of stigma to reveal the real stories behind two powerful women in the cannabis industry. Host Mr. Wowzer and co-host Kayla Bass welcome Ashley Jolley and Martelle Casas of March and Ash for a vibrant conversation that dives into childhood memories, first encounters with weed, and the evolution of public perception from D.A.R.E. days to dispensary life. From Riverside mud pies to Imperial Valley bike rides, Ashley and Martelle reflect on their journeys with laughter, vulnerability, and grit.

Ashley shares how motherhood shapes her views on cannabis education, while Martelle opens up about a bold leap of faith that led her from sleeping in a car to finding community and purpose in San Diego’s cannabis scene. Along the way, they talk about the role of cannabis in entertainment, mental health, and connection — and the highs and lows of building careers in an industry still fighting stereotypes. This is a conversation about resilience, purpose, and showing up as your full self in a space that hasn’t always welcomed it.
