Ibogaine Uncovered Julia Reibelt: Learning the Language of the Heart
Julia Reibelt is a director at Evolve Ventures and Foundation, and a former independent consultant for MAPS, with an MBA from Columbia Business School. Julia has put her corporate background to use in the burgeoning psychedelic space. She’s also spreading the word about psychedelics on TikTok with her account, @findjules, where she has over 100k followers.
What we discuss:
Some of the common misconceptions that Julia’s heard from her audience about psychedelics and ibogaine
Julia’s previous experiences with plant medicine, which helped her to overcome diagnoses including eating disorders, C-PTSD, PMDD and depression. Did this work better prepare her for ibogaine?
What separates ibogaine from other plant medicines
The “blueprint for life” given to Julia by ibogaine intended to help her maintain clarity
How Julia manages her relationship with social media post-ibogaine
Julia’s primary lesson from ibogaine: what is the language of the heart?
Why it’s important:
If we believe that ibogaine is a tool that can help us achieve better mental, physical, and spiritual health, it’s important that we remember to use it in conjunction with other tools. Julia’s experience teaches us that, one) it’s never just plant medicine alone that can help us move through challenging periods in our lives, and 2) the answers we seek outside of ourselves – and often from plant medicine – exist within us. It comes down to our ability to tune in and listen to the language of our own hearts.
