Show Notes

In this episode, Jon sits down with Trevor Millar, the Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder of Ambio Life Sciences, and one of the global leaders in ethical ibogaine treatment. Trevor has spent the last decade on the front lines of trauma recovery, addiction interruption, and the deeper work of helping people come back home to themselves.

Trevor isn’t just a provider.
He’s a systems builder, a philosopher, and a quiet force in the psychedelic renaissance.

His impact runs deep:

• Co-founder of the Canadian Psychedelic Association
• Former Chair of the Board for MAPS Canada
• Co-author of peer-reviewed ibogaine research (trauma, TBI, opioid use disorder)
• Featured in award-winning documentaries including DOSED and Netflix’s In Waves and War
• Pioneer in developing safe, integrative, patient-centered ibogaine care

 

At Ambio, Trevor leads operations, partnership building, and the entire client experience, blending clinical precision with real human understanding. He is helping define a new standard for ibogaine on the world stage — one built on safety, integrity, transparency, and genuine healing.

In this conversation, Jon and Trevor explore:

• What makes ibogaine different from every other psychedelic
• Why the medicine is uniquely suited for trauma, addiction, and patterned pain
• How ibogaine interrupts survival loops and restores agency
• The emerging global movement highlighted in In Waves and War, and why Navy SEALs, veterans, and first responders are turning to this medicine
• The real risks and the real responsibilities of providers
• Why integrative care — before and after the medicine — determines how deep the healing goes
• The future of ibogaine treatment, regulation, and global access
• How to prepare your mind, your body, and your life for the kind of healing ibogaine can initiate

This is an episode rooted in clarity rather than hype, leadership rather than trend, and lived experience rather than speculation.
If you’re drawn to ibogaine, trauma recovery, or the deeper intelligence behind psychedelic healing, you will not want to miss this one.
