🎙️The Camera Kept Rolling—A Behind-the-Scenes Conversation on True Healing
Some moments aren’t meant for the spotlight, but they’re often the most powerful.
This episode wasn’t planned. It’s a raw, unfiltered conversation between me and my publicist—caught when the camera was supposed to be off. But after my life-changing journey with ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT, everything has shifted.
💬 "I could've done counseling for 30 years, taken all the supplements, eaten as clean as possible, exercised—but nothing in my 42 years of life could've given me the healing and peace that I (now) have."
In this episode, I open up about:
✨ The Ibogaine Glow – Why this transformation isn’t just a moment, but a whole new way of being
🧘 How I’m Sustaining the Shift – The daily practices keeping me grounded: nutrition, yoga, meditation, breath-work
🌍 A New Lens on Life – Letting go of stress, embracing what truly matters
This is real healing. No script. No filters. Just the truth about what happens when you finally break free.

Healing Grief & Trauma: Angela Skudin on Ibogaine, Psychedelics & First Responders
Do you have health + wellness questions? Don't worry; I've got you! Text me.
After finding healing from years of chronic illness, Angela Skudin’s world was shattered by the sudden loss of her husband, Casey.
Instead of numbing the pain with sedatives, she turned to ibogaine therapy, a powerful plant medicine known for its ability to help process trauma and break destructive cycles. Through ibogaine, she was able to truly feel her grief, process it, and begin to heal.
In Part 2 of this conversation, Angela shares how psychedelics not only helped her personally but also inspired her to help first responders access real healing through the Casey Skudin 343 FUND. She and Dr. Heather Heck also discuss how Big Pharma profits from limiting human healing—and why alternative approaches are often kept out of reach.
🌀 "Once you find something like [these healing modalities or] ibogaine, you want to share these with everybody. You want everyone to feel the freedom you're feeling."
🎧 Tune in for an eye-opening conversation about grief, trauma, and the power of plant medicine.
