Yann Guignon embodies a rare path, at the crossroads of worlds and histories. Franco-Gabonese by adoption—under the guidance of Professor Jean Noël Gassita—and by marriage, he has spent over two decades building a unique bridge between Africa and the West, between living traditions and modernity. His commitment began in 2004, when he entered an initiatory journey within several Gabonese rites. Initiated into Bwiti in 2006, he gradually developed a deep relationship with traditional knowledge holders. Over the years, this involvement led to his recognition as a guardian of tradition, and to his appointment as International Ambassador of the Association Maghanga Ma Nzambé, an organization dedicated to preserving and transmitting Gabonese traditional medicine. But his journey goes far beyond a personal quest. As a consultant in intercultural mediation and sustainable development, he is actively engaged in addressing a deeper issue: the need to repair the imbalances inherited from the colonial history between the West and Africa. His approach is grounded in a strong conviction: traditional knowledge systems are neither archaic nor folkloric—they are fully-fledged systems of knowledge that must be recognized, protected, and fairly valued. As scientific and industrial interest in iboga and ibogaine continues to grow, he was among the first to raise concerns about potential risks: knowledge extraction, marginalization of traditional communities, and unequal distribution of value. Where others see a market, he sees responsibility. He went on to found Blessings of the Forest, an NGO dedicated to the conservation of Gabon’s cultural and natural heritage. Through this work, he strives to build concrete bridges between local communities, institutions, and international stakeholders, advocating for models based on equity, reciprocity, and respect for international frameworks such as the Nagoya Protocol. Both in the field and on the international stage, he carries a distinct voice—that of a mediator, at once witness, actor, and bridge-builder. A voice that reminds us that behind every molecule studied, there is a story, a culture, and communities that must not be rendered invisible. Episode Highlights ▶ The history and origin of Iboga in Gabon ▶ Cultural practices and rules around Iboga and Bwiti ▶ Challenges of Western commercialization and misappropriation ▶ Conservation efforts and the Nagoya Protocol ▶ The role of community-led initiatives like Blessings of the Forest ▶ Risks and safety in the use of Iboga and Ibogaine ▶ The spiritual and symbolic significance of visions and dreams in Gabonese tradition ▶ The importance of working with trained practitioners and respecting indigenous protocols   Yann Guignon’s Links & Resources ▶ Free gift: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPiVd9NpM7Q ▶ http://www.blessingsoftheforest.org/ ▶ https://www.facebook.com/yguignon ▶ https://www.facebook.com/BlessingsOfTheForest ▶ https://www.instagram.com/blessingsoftheforest/ ▶ https://www.tiktok.com/@botfgabon   Join Beth for her all new LIVE 3-Part Masterclass + Hot Seat Coaching, Clear Path to Aligned Abundance: https://go.bethaweinstein.com/clear-path-abundance/ (PAY WHAT YOU WISH) Download Beth's free trainings here:  Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business:  https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth’s Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching  ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram:  @bethaweinstein  ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz  Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth’s Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz

Del Potter, PhD is an ethnopsychopharmacologist, chemist, and psychedelic pioneer whose career has moved across some of the most consequential and unconventional edges of the field, from Mesoamerican field research and underground manufacturing to cutting-edge pharmaceutical development and clinical trials. He brings a rare perspective to the psychedelic renaissance: not as a commentator, but as someone who was inside the apparatus that produced these compounds long before the current wave had a name. Dr. Potter holds a PhD from a joint program between the UCSF Medical School and UC Berkeley's Department of Anthropology, specializing in psychiatric anthropology, ethnopsychopharmacology, and neuropharmacology, with additional clinical training at the San Francisco Psychoanalytic Institute. His postdoctoral fieldwork examined shamanic traditions and indigenous psychotherapeutic practice across multiple lineages, including ceremonial psilocybin and Salvia divinorum use among the Mazatec of central Mexico, ayahuasca and yagé ritual among the Shuar of Ecuador, and parallel traditions among the Yanomami of Brazil and the Cofán of Colombia, contributing to Richard Evans Schultes' comprehensive survey of psychotropic botanicals worldwide. A formative mentorship with Alexander Shulgin oriented his chemistry toward novel tryptamine compounds, particularly in the DMT and 5-MeO-DMT structural classes, and he has since developed a portfolio of compounds that retain the neuroplasticity associated with psychedelic receptor activity while producing no psychedelic effect. On the pharmaceutical and biotech side, Dr. Potter served as Chief Science Officer at Leef Holdings, designing what became California's largest fully automated medical cannabis manufacturing facility, and later directed first-in-human 5-MeO-DMT clinical trials at UCSF through his work with Alvarius Pharmaceuticals, followed by a Phase 1 trial at Trinity College Dublin. At University College Dublin, he developed and validated the use of human stem cell-derived brain organoids to assess how psychedelic compounds reverse epigenetic changes caused by substance abuse. In 2023 he founded Spiritus Bioscience to develop novel delivery formats for psilocin, DMT, and 5-MeO-DMT, with the first product entering clinical trials in Australia targeting Alcohol Use Disorder. He currently serves as founder and CSO of BioUnbound Inc., exploring the intersection of psychedelics and bioactive peptides for mental health and longevity applications. Dr. Potter is currently completing his memoir, whose working title is Was a Different Time: Chronicles of a Psychedelic Pioneer in the Reign of the Cartels.Episode Highlights ▶ Del's background supplying California cannabis genetics to the Guadalajara cartel and working at Rancho Bufalo  ▶ Meeting cartel figures Miguel Felix Gallardo and Rafael Caro Quintero, and the fallout from the Kiki Camarena murder  ▶ Manufacturing LSD in Marin County using precursor chemicals sourced through cartel connections  ▶ How a DEA sting led to a federal task force, a stunning offer, and a get-out-of-jail-free card  ▶ Mentorship under Alexander Shulgin and the countercultural milieu of Esalen, Claudio Naranjo, Allen Ginsberg, and Terence McKenna  ▶ Why psychedelics have no intrinsic politics: the compound is the same, the container decides everything  ▶ The retreat economy as product development: when one medicine stops differentiating, operators start stacking  ▶ How the clinical and pharmaceutical models convert ceremony into a billable procedure  ▶ The psychoplastogen pipeline: engineering the experience out so the worker is back at their desk by Wednesday  ▶ Indigenous cosmological governance as a technical achievement, not a romanticized ideal  ▶ The concept of restraint and reciprocity as regulatory systems, and what Western culture has lost  ▶ Why patenting psilocybin protocols and dosing postures is a winnable legal argument  ▶ Publicly funded, community-governed clinics as the only container that can hold what these compounds require  ▶ The mental health crisis as inseparable from the housing, wage, care, and climate crises  ▶ Building a parallel infrastructure: cooperatives, commons defense, and indigenous benefit sharing as models    Dr. Del Potter’s Links & Resources ▶ https://delpotterphd.substack.com ▶ https://www.facebook.com/del.potter.75 ▶ @drdelpotter.bsky.social ▶ www.biounbound.com ▶ https://www.instagram.com/potter_del/ Download Beth's free trainings here:  Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business:  https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth’s Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching  ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram:  @bethaweinstein  ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz  Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth’s Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz

Antonia and Roger Vanoro are husband and wife, soul collaborators, and the creators of Ontodelic Inquiry™, a somatic and subtle-field approach to transformation that bridges depth psychology, body-centered therapy, and the lived wisdom of altered states. Ontodelic draws from the Greek roots for "being" and "revealing," pointing to a revelation of being that works at the level of the body, the psyche, and the karmic storehouse beneath. Antonia is an intuitive energy healer and guide with over 22 years of experience in the sacred medicine space, trained in Hakomi, IFS, depth psychology, and energy work (CHt, CPTC). She works with the body as a direct route to the unconscious, midwifing clients through their natural healing processes with love, compassion, and skill. Roger is a somatic therapist and embodiment guide whose work begins in the present moment, using co-regulated presence to support clients as the deeper body awakens, heals, and reveals its histories. Together they developed Ontodelic Inquiry to meet what conventional somatic and parts-based work cannot: multi-lifetime and ancestral material, experiences of unity and expanded states, and the deep patterns that keep people looping regardless of how much inner work they've done. Their Ontodelic Inquiry Training is for therapists, coaches, facilitators, and healers ready to go deeper in their own process and their work with others. It is, as participants have described it, a psychedelic experience without the psychedelics. Antonia and Roger are based in the Hudson Valley, New York, and offer individual sessions, couples work, mentorship, and immersive trainings. Episode Highlights ▶ What Ontodelic Inquiry is and where the name comes from, rooted in the Greek words for "being" and "revealing" ▶ How somatic and parts-based modalities like Hakomi and IFS can become their own kind of loop, and what becomes possible when you work at the level of the karmic storehouse ▶ Why peak experiences alone rarely produce lasting change, and what shifts when deep somatic preparation and integration are in place ▶ How multi-lifetime and ancestral material shows up in sessions regardless of belief, and why a therapeutic frame that can hold it matters ▶ The role of pattern interruption and real-time somatic mapping in unwinding what talk therapy and medicine work can't fully reach ▶ How this work connects to ancient wisdom traditions from Andean Cosmovision to Vajrayana Buddhism, and why that lineage matters ▶ Why bringing light down into the body rather than bypassing shadow is the alchemy at the center of their approach ▶ What AI reveals about the irreplaceable nature of human consciousness and the transmission field only living beings can carry ▶ Who the Ontodelic Inquiry Training is for, including therapists, coaches, facilitators, and healers ready to go deeper   Antonia & Roger Vanoro' Links & Resources ▶ https://wheeloflife.us ▶ https://www.illuminateyourtruth.com/ ▶ https://rogervanoro.com/ ▶ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/antoniavanoro   Download Beth's free trainings here: Clarity to Clients: Start & Grow a Transformational Coaching, Healing, Spiritual, or Psychedelic Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/grow-your-spiritual-business Integrating Psychedelics & Sacred Medicines Into Business: https://bethaweinstein.com/psychedelics-in-business ▶ Beth’s Coaching & Guidance: https://bethaweinstein.com/coaching ▶ Beth's Offerings & Courses: https://bethaweinstein.com/services ▶ Instagram: @bethaweinstein ▶ FB: / bethw.nyc + bethweinsteinbiz

In this episode, Beth shares why she’s finally saying yes to an Iboga journey…after contemplating and building a relationship with this medicine for 14 years.  You’ll hear the story of how seeds were planted back in 2012, why she kept putting it off for years, what finally shifted, and what she’s learning and receiving from Iboga before the retreat even begins. This is about truth, fear, prayer, timing, deep integration and the difference between chasing quick and easy healing vs. building a relationship with a medicine as an ally. If you’ve been contemplating Iboga or another plant medicine, this may be helpful for you to hear about her process to discernment and decision making. What you’ll hear inside The first time Beth heard about Iboga and the phrase she never forgot: “First ceremony cleanses your karma… second tells you what to do with your life.” The long on-and-off relationship with the calling to this medicine and why she didn’t do Iboga for so many years The piece most people underestimate: ample space and time for integration, especially with Iboga. Taking an “energetic sabbatical”--what it actually has been, what it wasn’t, and why it matters Midlife portal and the deeper question underneath: “What do I really want?” The hard moment when a death at an Iboga center changed everything A trusted friend’s iboga experience and a mysterious “one thing” she hasn’t been able to move despite doing “all the things” to change it. “Hanuman made me do it!” (?!) Various “lightning bolt” moments and timeline-jumps. Microdosing Iboga, how it happened and what it was like A plant connection practice Beth recommends if you feel called to any medicine and what happened the very first time she did it with Iboga The FEAR of iboga… why has she rarely felt this level of fear before a medicine journey? The purge-before-the-purge: shedding the skin of the snake and endings for the highest good. Yet another call-out of the “Amazon Prime effect” of “quick healing” culture… and why intention, prayer, reverence, and relationship matter more than trying to “get something” from a plant Recurring ocean dreams Beth’s deepest intention… not “fix me,” but: “Whatever is in the highest and best for me to be of service on this planet at this time.” Themes Prayer and right relationship with Iboga and other sacred plant medicines Timing, readiness, and discernment Integration as an actual lifestyle (not just an integration circle) When fear is a doorway in The way spirit weaves in your life LONG before the ceremony Truth vs. bypassing Mentions + Modalities referenced Ayahuasca, psilocybin mushrooms, Bufo, and “trickster” medicines Master plant dietas and retreat integration Vipassana / extended meditation retreats Transformational NLP and Family Constellation work (and why it can feel like “there’s no other way to get there”) Devotion, chanting, singing…and her journey of lightening bolt moments with the Hanuman Chalisa and dreams of Hanuman Dream guidance from plant spirits A note on Iboga safety + discernment Iboga is not to be taken lightly. Making this decision was not a casual path. Beth speaks to the importance of being held by skilled facilitators, proper screening, and not rushing toward a “quick fix.” If you’re feeling called, let your prayer deepen, let guidance ripen, and choose safety and integrity over urgency.
