In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, host Stewart Alsop welcomes Jonathan Dickinson, a specialist in Ibogaine treatment and co-founder/CEO of Ambio Life Sciences and Teregnosis. They discuss the history and therapeutic uses of Iboga and Ibogaine, focusing on its effects in treating heroin addiction, traumatic brain injury, and chronic pain.

More information about Jonathan's work can be found at Ambio Life.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:21 Understanding Ibogaine and Its Uses02:00 Ibogaine's Impact on Veterans and Brain Injuries03:57 Psycho-Spiritual and Medical Benefits of Ibogaine07:12 Scientific Studies and Misconceptions18:50 Legalization and Research Challenges25:05 Ibogaine Sourcing and Sustainability31:43 Ibogaine Smuggling and Export Practices32:10 Pharmaceutical Grade Iboga Extract33:36 Challenges of Growing Iboga33:53 Traditional Growth Methods and Cultural Attitudes37:04 Global Cultivation Efforts38:05 Access and Benefit Sharing Agreements38:54 Traditional Knowledge and Bwiti Culture39:40 Historical Context of Iboga Use40:44 Bantu and Pygmy Cultural Exchange42:31 Bwiti Rituals and Practices46:23 Learning from Traditional Practices48:19 Western and Traditional Knowledge Integration55:58 Future of Iboga and Ibogaine59:22 Connecting with AmbioKey InsightsIboga and Ibogaine as Addiction Treatments: Ibogaine is primarily known for its effectiveness in treating heroin addiction. It interrupts the addiction cycle through a powerful psychoactive experience lasting 12-24 hours, which helps individuals detox from drugs like heroin and opioids. After the session, many report being free of withdrawal symptoms and cravings for months, providing a unique pathway out of addiction.Use in Treating Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI): Jonathan has worked extensively with veterans, especially Navy SEALs, using Ibogaine to address TBIs. These injuries, often from combat-related concussive forces, lead to symptoms that mirror PTSD. Ibogaine appears to regenerate brain function, as seen in a study conducted with Stanford University, where veterans exhibited significant brain activity improvement following treatment.Cultural Roots in Bwiti and African Traditions: Iboga has deep cultural significance in Gabon, particularly in Bwiti spiritual practices, which have been influenced by both indigenous Pygmy traditions and Bantu peoples. Bwiti uses Iboga in ceremonies for psycho-spiritual exploration, healing, and connection to ancestors, a tradition that has persisted for centuries and possibly millennia.Misunderstandings About Noribogaine: Many believe that noribogaine, a metabolite of Ibogaine, remains in the body for up to eight months, contributing to long-lasting effects. However, Jonathan clarifies that noribogaine remains in the system for only a few days or a week. The extended feeling of ease or afterglow people experience may be due to neurotrophic factors like GDNF, which stimulate brain healing and regeneration over time.Emerging Scientific Understanding of Ibogaine: Research into Ibogaine's mechanisms is still developing. It acts on many receptors in the brain, including the Sigma 2 receptor, which has been linked to pain relief and neuroprotective effects. There's also growing interest in its potential role in intracellular processes and energy metabolism, where it appears to improve cellular efficiency, possibly explaining its long-term regenerative effects on brain function.Decentralized Knowledge and Treatment Communities: Unlike tightly regulated pharmaceutical models, Ibogaine treatment has grown in a decentralized, community-driven way, with providers sharing their experiences and knowledge. This echoes the traditions of Bwiti and emphasizes the importance of communal support around Ibogaine therapy, where the intensity of the experience requires a supportive environment and a collective sharing of insights.Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing of Iboga: Jonathan is actively involved in ensuring the sustainable and ethical sourcing of Iboga through his company, Teregnosis. Working with Gabonese communities, Teregnosis follows the Nagoya Protocol to ensure that the benefits of Iboga's growing global interest are shared with the traditional communities that have long relied on this plant, protecting both the ecosystem and cultural heritage.

Nearly 300 retired Mecklenburg County employees burdened by a budget mistake they say the county made are now finally being heard.  "When I got that letter in the mail, my heart sank," Karen Hefner, a former Mecklenburg County employee who retired in 2015, said. Back in April of this year, retirees were notified that their dependents' monthly premiums on medical insurance were never meant to be covered by the county. Now the Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners is reversing course so retirees don't have to come up with money for the premiums that had been taken care of for years.  A motion was passed Wednesday night that allows eligible retirees to pay the same amount for dependent coverage as current employees for the 2024 plan year.  Read more: https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/local/wake-up-charlotte/retired-mecklenburg-county-employees-relief-medical-benefits/275-7b22ea2e-5fbd-42ae-add5-a1c94650ee9e Watch Wake Up Charlotte each weekday morning from 4:30 to 7 a.m. on WCNC Charlotte, and as always, join the conversation on social media using #WakeUpCLT!

Executive Medical Benefits with ArmadaCare - Rachel Rutherford This week's episode features Rachel Rutherford, Sales Director at ArmadCare, where she and host of @SelfFunded with Spencer - Spencer Smith, dive into the world of Executive Benefits. In today's competitive job market, attracting and retaining top talent is crucial for the success of any organization. Human Resources (HR) directors play a vital role in determining organizational benefits and tailoring them to individual needs. This episode explores the importance of HR in tailoring benefits and attracting top talent. One key concept highlighted in the episode is the "Zone of Genius." This refers to the intersection of an individual's natural skills and true passions, which leads to career fulfillment and success. By tailoring benefits to cater to the unique needs and aspirations of employees, HR can create an environment where individuals can thrive in their respective zones of genius. Enhanced benefits, such as ArmadaCare, a supplemental medical reimbursement plan, are discussed as a way to attract and retain top talent. ArmadaCare offers tax advantages, full insurance coverage, and compliance with the Affordable Care Act. While these enhanced benefits may raise questions of fairness to some, they are seen as a valuable tool for caring for key employees and ensuring their well-being. Rachel Rutherford emphasizes the importance of considering the impact on both the employer and the employees when making decisions about tailoring benefits. She highlights the significant cost of losing key talent and the subsequent expenses associated with replacing them. Retention tools, such as enhanced benefit packages, can save companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost productivity and knowledge. One interesting approach mentioned in the episode is the idea of incentivizing longevity with the employer. By offering different levels of benefits based on years of service, HR can encourage employees to stay with the company. This approach aligns with the goal of attracting and retaining top talent while also considering the financial implications for the organization. However, there are tradeoffs involved in balancing different factors when tailoring benefits.

Executive Medical Benefits with ArmadaCare - Rachel Rutherford This week's episode features Rachel Rutherford, Sales Director at ArmadCare, where she and host of @SelfFunded with Spencer - Spencer Smith, dive into the world of Executive Benefits. In today's competitive job market, attracting and retaining top talent is crucial for the success of any organization. Human Resources (HR) directors play a vital role in determining organizational benefits and tailoring them to individual needs. This episode explores the importance of HR in tailoring benefits and attracting top talent. One key concept highlighted in the episode is the "Zone of Genius." This refers to the intersection of an individual's natural skills and true passions, which leads to career fulfillment and success. By tailoring benefits to cater to the unique needs and aspirations of employees, HR can create an environment where individuals can thrive in their respective zones of genius. Enhanced benefits, such as ArmadaCare, a supplemental medical reimbursement plan, are discussed as a way to attract and retain top talent. ArmadaCare offers tax advantages, full insurance coverage, and compliance with the Affordable Care Act. While these enhanced benefits may raise questions of fairness to some, they are seen as a valuable tool for caring for key employees and ensuring their well-being. Rachel Rutherford emphasizes the importance of considering the impact on both the employer and the employees when making decisions about tailoring benefits. She highlights the significant cost of losing key talent and the subsequent expenses associated with replacing them. Retention tools, such as enhanced benefit packages, can save companies hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost productivity and knowledge. One interesting approach mentioned in the episode is the idea of incentivizing longevity with the employer. By offering different levels of benefits based on years of service, HR can encourage employees to stay with the company. This approach aligns with the goal of attracting and retaining top talent while also considering the financial implications for the organization. However, there are tradeoffs involved in balancing different factors when tailoring benefits.

Maggie's top learnings from spending a year researching, signing up for, and using ACA marketplace insurance:Plan ahead, this takes time and research. We discuss how you can price out and see the different plans, how the number and types of plans are quite complicated, some tips regarding the application process, and whether or not you need to work with a broker or rep.Understand the levels of plans. There are bronze, silver, gold, and platinum plans, and they are explained here. Understand how subsidies work, as they can be quite generous if you're not working or on a low income. We explain how the subsidies work, how you can estimate your AGI (adjusted gross income), what happens if you misestimate your AGI, and how you can proactively manage your AGI.   Understand how cost-sharing reductions work.  The cost-sharing reductions are clutch  and only available on the silver plans.You're likely going to need to change doctors and maybe even adjust medications. This is OK. A lot of things are going to change for you in early retirement, and in the grand scheme of things, these are doable changes. We recommend consulting with existing doctors and being very detailed oriented about which doctors and medications are covered in which plans.Fight for your rights and ask questions and double-triple-check! If the marketplace says a doctor is covered and the doctor says they aren't, do more research on both ends.We wrap up this episode by sharing what Maggie and Greg are paying for 2023 insurance premiums.  Top 3 Takeaways:Your options for medical insurance are not limited to employer-sponsored plans.  Insurance on the marketplace can be quite affordable if you're truly retired and/or living on a lower income.Do your research and plan ahead.  Learn about and understand the subsidies and cost-sharing reductions. This is what makes marketplace insurance affordable.  Show References:friends on FIRE podcast #118 - It's benefits season!

Insurance is the number one question we get when we tell people we are retiring.  Also, everything we're sharing on insurance is specifically relevant to those living in the United States.  Key considerations and thoughts on insurance during early retirement:Insurance is just a product you buy. It's not some special club only for people who work for established businesses. You put in more than you get out on average, which is how insurance companies make money.It's going to be more expensive than what you currently pay as part of a W2 job.  We now appreciate how much our employer has been paying all these years!  Either you're paying the expense, or your employer is.  Think of it as the cost of your freedom.  You can get frustrated and feel trapped because of it, or you can do your research, plan, and budget for it, choose the best options, and move on with your plans and dreams.  Just accept it.  You should budget for this and include it in your annual cost of living estimates in retirement.  You also need to budget for medical expenses in addition to the cost of insurance.Do your research and ask a lot of questions. Healthcare.gov outlines several roles that can help you; they have navigators, certified application counselors, and agents/brokers that can help you.  Remember, once you get insurance, there are many other ways to save on medical expenses.  We did a previous episode on creative ways to save on medical expenses.  There are several paths you can go for insurance:Cobra for up to 18 months.  Warning, it's expensive.  Your company HR person can share the rates with you for your company.  You're paying your portion of the cost and then also what your company has been subsiding for you all these years. Healthcare.gov / ACA plans.  This is what Maggie plans to use, so we'll share more on this later.  Private health insurance.  Yes, you can go directly to private insurance companies to buy insurance.  The big downside here is these don't allow you to qualify for marketplace subsidies.  Healthcare sharing ministries such as medi-share.  We're not experts on these, and we're not going down this path as we don't ideologically qualify.  Newer models like sidecar health.  The biggest negative is there is a max of what they cover for specific types of care, which they call a benefit amount (e.g., average joint replace the should cost this much, so that's the most we'll cover).  They cover you up to a certain amount, but you could be in trouble if you have something really expensive.  We feel comfortable covering the small stuff, but we want insurance for the big crazy stuff, and that's where SideCar health lacks, in our opinion, so it's not for us right now.  And it's new and doesn't have enough history for me to feel comfortable relying on it.  You could enter into some sort of part-time employment arrangement to get insurance.You could technically go without insurance.  It's no longer a legal requirement in the US.  We would never recommend this. If you're traveling full-time, other types of insurance like travel insurance medical coverage.  Some of these only work if you also have a traditional plan for it to sit on top of, so do your research and read the fine print!Move to another country and get resident status or qualify for medical coverage there.  We're not experts on this, but it's possible, though not easy, and there is a lot of content out there if you're curious about this path. What is Maggie's plan? We're putting our kids on our ex-spouse's plans.  That's a nice benefit we each have that will make the cost significantly lower.  We're NOT doing cobra.  It's too expensive and not worth the incremental cost to us.We're going to do a plan through healthcare.gov.  We'll do a high-deductible plan so we can participate in HSAs because HSAs are awesome!  There are many plan options on the healthcare.gov marketplace, so you'll want to spend some time comparing the different plans.  The site is straightforward to use, and you can put in your doctors and medicines and see which plans cover which things.  We will have to switch some doctors, but it's a tradeoff we're willing to make.  We'll augment it with travel insurance when traveling in the US or abroad.Specific offices and practices have plans for dental and visual, or you can just go without and pay cash as you need services.  We plan to sign-up for the dental plan at our existing dentist's office, and we'll pay cash for vision needs as we have them.   What is medical insurance going to cost us in early retirement?  All of these numbers are for two adults.  Current premiums through our employers: $201 a month, $2416 a year. Cobra would cost us: $1,251 per month; $15,018 per yearWithout subsidy healthcare.gov plans:  Range of options from $1,032 per month; $12,384 per year TO $1,993 per month; $23,916 per year.  That's a big range, $6K a year per person to $12K a year per person, but it shows you the range of options available.  We're not yet in our 60-day window, but we're likely going to land closer to the bottom end due to going with a high-deductible plan so we can do an HSA:  $1252 per month; $15,018 per year (Aetna CVS Bronze)With Subsidy, healthcare.gov plans: The $15K a year option noted above will cost us full-price if our annual salary is $190K or higher.  If our salary gets below $80K, we will be eligible for a subsidy of $11K+ a year, and our annual insurance cost will come down to $3,750 per year.  Top 3 takeaways:You need medical insurance, but there are various options and tradeoffs to consider.Budget for it and do your research in advance.Explore the subsidies as it makes the cost of insurance significantly more affordable for the average family or person. Then, plan strategically to leverage them.  Show References:friends on FIRE episode #128 | Creative ways to save on medical expensesfriends on FIRE episode #059 | The amazing tax benefits of FSAs, HSAs, and DCAsfriends on FIRE episode #062 | How to choose the right medical insurance at workLearn more about healthcare.govs plan categoriesShop Healthcare.gov plans + pricesArticle comparing private insurance vs. marketplace plansA Purple Life post - My medical insurance planWorld Nomads Travel InsuranceHealthcare sharing ministries John Oliver segment---Follow friends on FIRETwitterInstagramFacebookLinkedInLeave us a voicemail or text us: 404-981-3370eMail us at:  friendsonfiremm@gmail.comVisit our website: www.friendsonfire.org---Other LinksMaggie's Blog: Mostly Minimal LifeMike's Book: Your New Relationship with Money
