After two decades of cocaine, heroin, and methadone use, i felt ready to die. As someone who had originally turned to drugs as a form of rebellion and a way to numb psychological pain, my habit had turned into a hardcore addiction that took over my life. Unsure what to do next, i turned to what was then an exotic and unconventional treatment—ibogaine.
After having my life turned completely around by my first ibogaine experience, i began a quest to share the benefits of iboga, harm reduction, and spiritual exploration with others.
That journey included working with Howard, being initiated into the Bwiti tribe in Gabon, and starting the Bwiti University in New York.
