Jay – Medicine Spirit Facilitator & Ceremonial Guide

Jay is one of our primary Medicine Spirit guides. He offers a grounded presence and skilled facilitation shaped by a rich blend of Western, Eastern, and Indigenous wisdom traditions. With decades of experience in sacred plant medicines, the Red Road Ways, yogic practices, permaculture, and community building, Jay brings deep knowledge along with heartfelt dedication to Iboga ceremonies.

For over 25 years, Jay has organized and facilitated transformational retreats, educational programs, and larger community gatherings in the United States and abroad. And Jay is passionate about renewing Rites of Passage programs such as vision quests, fire walks, medicine journeys, and deep nature connection immersions. These experiences have become a central part of his work in guiding others toward growth and healing.

Jay’s own path was forever changed by a life-changing journey with Iboga. This experience deepened his connection to the Medicine and its profound healing potential. Over time, he participated in many ceremonies, served as an assistant, and eventually became a guide. In 2024, he traveled to Gabon, West Africa—the ancestral home of Iboga—and was initiated into the Missoko Bwiti Tradition. Furthermore, Jay returned in 2025 for additional initiations and Rites of Passage within the tradition.

As a catalyst for transformational change, Jay is committed to fostering both personal and community healing. His goal is to help create thriving and sustainable human settlements that live in harmony with Nature. Jay also stewards a small farm and micro-community, where he is building a hub for regenerative agriculture, community connection, and green business — one that is thriving, ecologically regenerative, and socially responsible.
