Julie Piatt is my wife, my partner, and the person I needed sitting across from me for this one.

This conversation explores my recent experience with iboga, the root bark medicine used by the Bwiti people of Gabon for thousands of years. We discuss what led me there after decades of recovery and therapy, the confrontational nature of the ceremony, the rebirthing process, the role of the divine feminine, and what has quietly shifted in the aftermath.

Julie also weighs in, sharing what she's witnessed from the outside.

This one is personal. And I'm glad I finally talked about it. Enjoy.
