NOTE: There were some technical difficulties with the recording of this episode in that none of Whitney's audio from the interview was recorded. We worked to still use the content from our guest Christine Ryan because Whitney felt her perspective was so great. So instead Whitney recorded some commentary that was added throughout the interview. We hope you enjoy!

Christine's daughter Tiona died in a car accident in her early 20s, almost 20 years ago. Her experience as a grieving mom has lead to her intimate experience with signs from loved ones on the Other Side which she shared and also explained ways that your loved one is trying to send you signs.

Whitney delves into an important lesson she recently learned and one that many people struggle with: validating our own experiences.

Whitney recounts her experience at a spiritual conference. How she discovered the importance of recognizing her own psychic capabilities when she channeled a stranger's relative and reminding others that we all have the ability to connect with the other side. Stay tuned for valuable insights!

Also Whitney wants to give a shoutout to a listener - Jamie! She emailed Whitney to share that she felt more prepared in supporting her grieving friend after listening to the Mother's Day episode. Thank you, Jamie, for reaching out and reminding me of the impact I strive to make.

Losing a child changes a lot of things. Jeff believes that the death of his son Devon, at the age of 22 while traveling abroad in 2009, has changed him in a way you might not expect - he says it has made him a better person.

Jeff shares his history with organized religion, but that his faith in something bigger didn't really start until he was grieving his son. Now his certainty that we are a small part of something larger, which has been cemented for him by the signs he, his wife and his daughter receive from Devon, has brought him clarity to what's important in life.

Jeff volunteers on the Board of Directors for Helping Parents Heal and he encourages any grieving fathers looking for support to reach out to Helping Fathers Heal

One of Louise Hays' many famous quotes is, "It’s only a thought, and a thought can be changed."

But is it really that simple when your thoughts center around grief of a lost child? Whitney recorded this episode as she was having an emotionally hard day with her grief and her thoughts when she heard this quote mentioned by Louise's friend as he mourns her death.

Our guest today is Kristine Jackson and if you listened to the previous episode with Ernie Jackson then you are familiar with some of her story and the passing of their son Quinton. Kristine's journey was different from her husband's, starting with the traumatic injuries she sustained in the car accident that took her son's life and kept her in the hospital for 6 days. Kristine was on heavy narcotics and anti-depressants for the first two years while she worked through the pain and physical therapy to regain her mobility. After a dream visitation from her son she quit the medication and built an even stronger connection with her son.

Kristine's whole family was present for the car accident, and they have all grieved differently. A personal grief journey is complicated enough, but Kristine and her family have had to navigate supporting themselves and eachother.

Lately we have been discussing so much about grief and support it almost got easy to forget that this podcast started as a place to share signs. And this week Whitney got an incredible one that she is excited to tell you about. Yes, there is room for skepticism with this sign - but how is that serving you?Whitney believes the key to a happy life is the faith and acceptance of the signs, no matter how they come to you and she's grateful for this one she got through a stranger this week. How much better would life be if you were spending every day recognizing all the moments of magic, spiritual experiences and miracles in your life?
