Bwiti Conversation with ngangas Coco (Bwiti Initiations) & Navona Gallegos.

What is it like to travel to Gabon and do traditional Bwiti Missoko initiation?

In this conversation, Navona shares her experience.

We explore:

• Why she felt called to Gabon for traditional spiritual work after working with iboga elsewhere

• The difference between iboga and the Bwiti tradition

• What happens during a traditional initiation

• The challenges, breakthroughs, and unexpected lessons of the process

• Community, sisterhood, and indigenous wisdom

• How initiation continues to unfold long after the ceremony ends

This conversation offers a personal glimpse into the Bwiti path and what it means to engage with the tradition beyond the medicine itself.
