When you lose someone whom you loved, your first thought is to cry, right? Makes sense. But my guest Nancy Weil believes and teaches that laughter also has a place in healing your pain.
I was not even 12 years old when Daddy died. It was scary and mysterious and frightening. And we kids didn't talk about it, because our family didn't talk to us about his being sick. To this day, we're still not sure why he died.
When you meet somebody for the first time after they have suffered a life-loss, what should you say? What should you not say? How can you be most helpful to them, while not making them feel worse?
My guest. Dr. Donalyn Gross, is an expert in this area.
Have you ever had a near-death experience? I never have, but it's such an interesting and exotic topic, that I always want to know more.
My guest Dea Maltby was in a coma for t2 days, and in that time, she died and came back to life. Wow...
