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.
