What happens when a man declared dead begins watching the scene from above, unaware that the body below is his own?

In this episode of The Curious Soul, Cristina Malavenda and Marty Go sit down with near-death experiencer, author, and transformational coach Vincent "Vinney" Tolman.

Vinney shares the extraordinary story of the medical emergency that changed his life and the experience he says unfolded while he was clinically dead. He was revived 47 minutes after his recorded time of death. He describes leaving his body, observing events around him, and encountering a presence that would guide him through a profound journey beyond the physical world.

What followed challenged everything he believed about death, God, love, identity, and why we are here.

Vinney opens up about the life review he experienced, the overwhelming love he encountered, and the lessons he brought back about authenticity, self-worth, intuition, and the power of our thoughts.

Cristina and Marty also explore how his background in film shaped the way he initially understood what was happening, why loving your authentic self matters, and how his experience transformed the direction of his life.

Whether you are curious about near-death experiences, consciousness, heaven, spiritual guides, or what may happen after we die, this conversation invites you to consider the possibility that life is far more connected and meaningful than it appears.
