Summary
Grief hit me like a tidal wave, even with all my knowledge of the spirit world. This week, I’m talking with Samantha Rose, a ghostwriter for a famous medium, who lost her mother to suicide. She shares how she used her professional skills to reconnect with her mom through dreams and automatic writing, finding a way to forgive her and, ultimately, herself. This is a powerful conversation about the masks we wear, the courage to ask for help, and the profound realization that love doesn't end when a life does.
