27. Veteran Family Healing with Ibogaine & 5-MeO-DMT with Amber Capone

In this heartfelt interview, Michaela Carlin, The Psychedelic Mom, and Amber Capone discuss Amber’s journey supporting her husband in his incredible recovery from PTSD through plant-based psychedelic therapies like ibogaine and 5-MeO-DMT. At the core of Amber’s message is that it’s important to reframe cultural perceptions around psychedelic “drugs” to better appreciate their profound therapeutic potential. Her organization, VETS, stands at the forefront of her cause, offering financial assistance for a variety of therapeutic psychedelic modalities, aiming to help veterans and their spouses heal from trauma. Amber holds a strong belief that psychedelics can serve as vital tools for healing, yet she underscores the fact that they aren't the only avenue for personal transformation and that each person's journey is distinctively their own. Reflecting on her own healing journey, Capone shares the transformative power of therapy, journaling, prayer, and self-care, emphasizing the ripple effect her husband's recovery has had on her own life.
