My First Iboga Experience (9 Years Ago)
About 9 years ago now, I had my first experience with the Iboga medicine. My intention going into it was for spiritual discovery. I had heard that with Iboga, you could ask a question and get an answer. I had so many questions haha! I wanted to know who I am, wanted to know about life, about the pyramids, about religion, about so many different things. I was always an extremely curious soul, and it is this curiosity that brought me to the medicine initially.
What I experienced, however, was way beyond anything I could imagine. I healed from some deep traumas I had as a child which I had completely forgotten about. The medicine created the absolute perfect conditions for me to not only realize the root of pretty much all the issues I had at the time, but also showed me precisely how to heal from it all. It felt like a miracle. I cried so, so much in that first time. Instantly, I knew this was my path. I needed to learn how to work with this medicine and help others with it. I had done so many things trying to "fix" myself. Multiple Ayahuascas, meditation retreats, all sorts of cleanses, DMT journeys, LSD journeys, mushroom journeys, you name it. And still after all of that, I was just numb inside. And I didn't know, because I didn't have a reference of what not being numb was. After I did the Iboga though, I fell in love with myself and with life. And this love has been with me ever since.
Training in Africa
I went to Africa to study how to work with the medicine, doing a training program with a 10th generation shaman that was $20k at the time (He has since raised the prices to like $50k USD!). I learned a lot in Africa, did many different ceremonies and initiations, and just deepening my relationship with this powerful medicine. Then, I returned to the center I had done my first ceremony as an assistant, and spent close to a year there doing retreats after retreats and helping people through all sorts of challenges. It was such a great time!

The Fallout and Making Iboga My Teacher
At the end of that though, I had a major fallout with the shaman I had been working with up to this point. He is someone who always talks how important truth is, and how he is someone who never lies. Well, through a certain investigation that we did, we found out he had been lying to us about a certain topic that, for me, was very dear to my heart. And so there was a massive integration issue, and I had to completely cut my ties with Africa for some time. I then started making Iboga itself be my teacher, and for years I pushed the boundaries of what is possible with this medicine. Going as far as doing a double ceremony (2-nights in a row) in a fully pitch black dark room while being 8 days fasted. Yeah...
The Divine Revelation
In this experience, I had a direct Revelation from the Divine of the very Truth at the Source of all things. And that truth was (Is, and forever will be) Love. Love is the Truth. I discovered this in the most wonderful of ways, which I share in details in my first book A Magnaglorious Journey

Expanding My Healing Toolkit
After that, I spent the next few years doing ceremonies and integrating more and more that experience of revelation. I started to explore all sorts of modalities of healing. I discovered Breathwork, new ways to meditate, energy healing, sound healing, somatic work, and another medicine that I now also facilitate and found to be extremely complimentary to Iboga: 5-MEO-DMT. Throughout all of this, my heart started opening up more and more, my ability to feel love and to use it in various healing modalities increased, and the level of joy I embody just kept on growing.
Moving to Mexico and Training Others
About 4 years ago, during Covid, I moved to Mexico and started doing retreats there. After 3 years of doing so many retreats, working with all the different tools together, I started to take on a student for training on how to become a channel for the Divine and to work with all the various tools we use to facilitate healing in the most effective way.

My Guiding Question
Throughout my life, I always had a single intention guiding pretty much my every action. It was this simple question: What is the most effective way to get someone from a state of suffering to a state of thriving in the least amount of time. The current retreat, Transcend with Iboga is the current best answer I found. Of course, the microdosing protocol is incredibly effective as well, but not in the least amount of time haha! The retreat, however, is the most transformational process there is. You can get more info on it here.
My Mission with The Iboga Source
My goal with The Iboga Source is to restore the medicine to how it was originally intended to be. Something sacred, powerful, accessible, and something here to help. I am so done with the fear paradigm surrounding this medicine, people thinking somehow this sacred healing spirit is something that can damage you or is risky. This is simply not true, and it is time for the world to finally see just how amazing this plant is. I wanna make Iboga a global phenomenon, and have centers all over the world (Way more than now) working with this beautiful medicine. Since my first time doing it, it was my intention for this medicine to be known by way ore people. I could never understand why I never knew about this medicine in all my years being a spiritual seeker. And now I am finally ready to spread the message of love of this medicine far and wide. The world is ready, and needs it!

The Vision:
Heaven on Earth
About 2 years ago, I had a profound Vision that completely transformed my life once again. Since then, every step I make is in the direction of this vision. Heaven on Earth. This is what this whole thing is about, at the core. And there is a plan to get there. And it starts with each one of us creating an inner Heaven.
