In 2023, Carmen's life underwent a profound transformation through an Iboga journey. What began as an exploration became a complete reconfiguration of her relationship with love, addiction patterns, and creative purpose. After this "defragmentation" of her brain, she completed a memoir titled "Don't Yell at Her!" (currently en route to being published).
Since her initial flood dose, Carmen has sat with Iboga multiple times, each experience deepening her connection with her authentic self. Her transition from participant to facilitator emerged naturally as she assisted with other retreats, developing the ability to hold space while others navigate their own profound inner journeys.
At Medicine Spirit retreats, Carmen brings her personal experience with profound transformation and her compassionate understanding of cyclical patterns to create bridges between participants' ceremonial experiences and their integration into everyday life.
Carmen believes in the power of each person's soul and creates a container where individuals can reconnect with their own innate wisdom. She considers it a profound honour to witness and support others as they journey with Iboga, whether they're seeking healing from specific patterns, searching for greater clarity, or feeling called to deepen their spiritual connection.
