Mudanga

Julie, known in the Bwiti tradition as Mudanga, was initiated in Gabon in 2007, at the age of 24, into Mabundi, the female lineage of Bwiti Missoko Ngonde. Mabundi is a sacred initiatory path reserved for women, centered on deep spiritual knowledge, ancestral transmission, and inner transformation.

Alongside her spiritual path, Julie is a trained hypnotherapist and works in France, supporting individuals facing a wide range of physical and emotional illnesses. Her therapeutic approach bridges modern hypnotherapy with a profound understanding of subconscious processes, healing, and personal resilience.

Over the years, she has continued her traditional training in Mabundi, progressing through multiple initiatory levels and rising in rank according to ancestral Bwiti protocols, under the guidance of elders and within the cultural framework of the tradition.

In 2013, Julie met Nzambe Divanga (Tembo). Since then, they have been working together internationally, facilitating Bwiti- and Iboga-inspired retreats and ceremonies around the world. Their collaboration is rooted in authenticity, safety, and respect for tradition, combining African initiatory wisdom with contemporary therapeutic tools to support deep inner work, healing, and transformation.
