In this heartfelt episode, Claire O’Berry speaks with longtime friend and visionary artist Tiffany Riley, co-founder of the Laughter League. Tiffany shares what it means to be a professionally trained healthcare clown—collaborating with medical teams in pediatric hospitals to bring moments of levity, connection, and healing to critically ill children.

From stories of joy in the ICU to sacred moments at the end of life, Tiffany offers a rare look inside this powerful, misunderstood field. The episode honors her late mother Joy, whose love and legacy continues to inspire compassion through laughter. You’ll also hear how clowning as care is a rigorous, artistic, and emotional discipline—and why it’s so vital today.

Prepare to be moved, surprised, and perhaps even inspired to laugh a little differently.

In our latest Dying Your Way podcast episode, I’m joined by the luminous Dr. Toni Reilly—renowned psychotherapist, past-life specialist, and now author of the soul-stirring book Grief is Not the Death of You.

It’s been five years since I last interviewed Toni, and what a journey she’s been on since then. In this intimate and honest conversation, we explore how grief—whether from death, divorce, identity loss, or even the breakdown of belief systems—is not something to avoid or push through, but a transformative teacher.

We go deep into:

• Why grief is one of the three great pinnacles of human experience: birth, grief, and death
  
  

• How grief strips us of control and awakens empathy
  
  

• The importance of witnessing and holding space, without trying to fix anything
  
  

• Why letting someone cry uninterrupted is a gift—and why hugging too soon might stop a breakthrough
  
  

• How Toni’s groundbreaking recall therapy (including past-life and afterlife encounters) helps people shift perspectives during profound loss
  
  

• Why society fails at supporting the grieving—and how we can all do better
  
  

Toni’s insights are both mystical and deeply practical. Whether you are in grief, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking a more soulful understanding of life’s hardest moments—this conversation will stay with you.

💬 One takeaway? “You don’t choose grief. It chooses you. But through it, you will never be the same—and that’s the gift.”

We also touch on her upcoming appearance at the Afterlife Convention in Sydney (June 28–29), where science meets spirituality in powerful new ways. Toni is helping shift the global conversation around grief, death, and the soul’s journey—and I couldn’t be more grateful to have her voice on this platform.
