Brigit Ritchie's 56 Questions: A Deep Dive into Ibogaine Healing

I feel so in my body and so connected and so aligned with the things I want to do... and the biggest takeaway I got from ibogaine was: it is about the integration.
Imagine having a list of 56 questions for a single experience. That's exactly what Brigit Ritchie, founder and CEO of We, did before her transformative encounter with ibogaine. In this episode of 'Root Medicine', Amanda Siebert sits down with Brigit to unpack her journey through substance abuse, burnout, and the lingering shadows of childhood trauma. Brigit’s life before ibogaine was a whirlwind of work-life imbalance and unrecognized dependencies on alcohol and tobacco.
She shares how she hoped that ibogaine, a powerful plant medicine from the West African shrub iboga, could help her heal from her past traumas. Brigit’s preparation for her ibogaine session was nothing short of meticulous, culminating in a whopping 56 questions she hoped to answer. Her experience with ibogaine was far from predictable and could have taken two very different paths.
This conversation isn't just about Brigit's personal journey; it's a mirror reflecting many of our own struggles with burnout, substance use, and unresolved trauma. Brigit's insights into relational mindfulness and intimacy offer valuable lessons for anyone looking to heal. Tune in to hear how this profound experience reshaped her life and what it could mean for your own healing journey.
