71: The Afterlife is Life's Teacher - An Interview with Dr. Raymond Moody

In an emotional interview, Melissa meets with Dr.Raymond Moody, philosopher, psychologist, physician, and author, most widely known for his study of life after death and near-death experiences (NDE). Melissa met Dr.Moody in her infamous quest to understand grief when she traveled out of the country by herself to hear him speak. She says that experience changed her life - and now Dr.Moody is here to answer more questions for you, too.

Raymond A. Moody Jr, Ph.D., MD is a world-renowned scholar, lecturer, and researcher, and is widely recognized as the leading authority on near-death experiences as he coined the term NDE. He is the bestselling author of many books, including Life After Life, Glimpses of Eternity, The Light Beyond, and Coming Back. Dr. Moody’s work profoundly illuminates our understanding of death, dying, and grief and offers compelling answers to the question: Is there an afterlife?

About this podcast:

Each episode we abandon our comfort zones to get a little gutsy and hold space to grow into stronger versions of ourselves.

In 2014, the birth of my daughter Leyden changed my entire world. Four months later, grief shattered it. I was broken, scared, lost, angry, and hopeless. I didn’t want to live and wasn’t really sure how to.

I sought every means to “fight” grief: researching, joining parent groups, and I even traveled outside of the country twice, to hear world-renowned grief speaker Dr. Raymond Moody.

Disappointed, I discovered like all adversities in life, there is no way to “beat” grief. But, thankfully, there were effective strategies I could employ when navigating such choppy waters. Whether it was understanding the gut-brain connection, or getting gutsy in my ability to face discomfort, the tools I learned, truly saved my life.

There are not nearly enough resources to support each other through uncomfortable challenges – be it the loss of a job, a relationship, a sense of self…or life. Talking about uncomfortable things, well that takes guts. And we are going to get really gutsy here.
