Before meeting Iboga, Villi spent years searching for peace, healing, and meaning. After studying sports and health science, he worked as a massage therapist, teacher, and longtime human rights advocate, dedicating over 15 years to supporting others while wrestling with his own unresolved trauma. Despite exploring many different healing modalities, true relief remained out of reach until Iboga.

Through Iboga and the Bwiti teachings, Villi finally found what so many of us are seeking: peace, love, joy, and happiness. His training took place in the jungle, immersed in the Bwiti tradition, where he connected with the medicine and its teachings in their most authentic form. That experience deepened his humility and respect toward Iboga a medicine and a teacher he approaches with reverence, never taking it for granted.

Villi’s own healing journey, combined with his lived experience, gives him a deep understanding of the internal and external challenges many people face particularly around shame, identity, self worth, and the path to overcoming trauma. He brings this insight into his work with compassion, integrity, and care, creating a safe and sacred space for healing.

For Villi, working with Iboga is more than a role; it’s a calling rooted in respect for the Bwiti, the medicine, and the people who come to it. Each ceremony is offered with depth, joy, and the steadfast intention to guide others toward peace, clarity, and a renewed connection to life.
