What if grief isn't something to get over — but something to grow through?

In this powerful episode, Brian sits down with intuitive healer, ThetaHealing practitioner, and bestselling author Amanda Beth Johnson, who was widowed at just 27 years old when her husband Jeff was killed suddenly in a car accident. Nearly 30 years later, Amanda has transformed that devastating loss into a life of service — helping others navigate the emotional, physical, and spiritual terrain of grief with wisdom that can only come from having lived it.

This conversation goes places most grief discussions never reach. Amanda opens up about the premonition dream she'd been having since age 12, the guilt of moving forward after loss, why healing isn't linear but layered, and how energy medicine and ThetaHealing can access what talk therapy sometimes can't touch. 

If you've been wondering why grief keeps showing up even years after your loss, or whether it's possible to carry your person forward without staying stuck — this episode is for you.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why the five stages of grief are widely misunderstood — and what to expect instead
• The "rock in a jar" model of grief that changed how Amanda thinks about healing
• What ThetaHealing is and why it works at a level that surprises people
• How to honor your person's memory in healthy versus unhealthy ways
• The role of intuition, energy work, and somatic healing in grief recovery
• Why moving forward is not betrayal — and how your person may actually be cheering you on
• What Amanda would tell her 27-year-old self about feeling the feelings
