    Signs of Life with Bob Ginsberg The Intersection of Psychology and Mediumship in Grief Recovery Guests, Sirry Berndsen and Dr. Mo Hannah This episode of Signs of Life features a deep-dive conversation between host Bob Ginsberg, clinical psychologist Dr. Mo Hanna, and certified medium Siri. The discussion highlights the powerful synergy between psychological frameworks and spiritual mediumship, introducing their upcoming collaborative podcast and exploring innovative grief recovery techniques like Induced After-Death Communication (IADC). The Synergy of "The Psyche & the Soul" Dr. Mo Hanna and Siri are collaborating on a new podcast titled The Psyche & the Soul, born from their shared work at grief retreats. They argue that psychology and mediumship are "good bedfellows," where clinical expertise in trauma and grief complements the spiritual validation provided by evidential mediumship. While mainstream colleagues might have once frowned upon such a partnership, the guests emphasize that integrating the science of the afterlife with psycho-spiritual components is essential for raising a mourner's "frequency" and facilitating recovery. Evidential Mediumship as a Witness to Trauma Siri, who transitioned from atheism to mediumship over 25 years ago, views her role as more than just providing "readings." By moving through a client's "timeline," she can identify specific traumatizing moments in their past, providing a sense of recognition and witnessing that aids the healing process. This approach often brings through profound messages of forgiveness from the deceased, particularly in cases involving difficult relationships or complex deaths like murder-suicides. This "energy work" helps bypass the analytical mind to reach the heart center. Navigating the "Windows and Waves" of Grief A central theme of the discussion is the non-linear nature of mourning. Dr. Mo introduces the concept of "windows and waves"—where "windows" represent periods of clarity and connection, and "waves" are the inevitable returns of intense pain. Rather than viewing waves as a lack of progress, Dr. Mo suggests "embracing the wave" as a testament to the depth of love for the deceased. Host Bob Ginsberg emphasizes that while waves are a "given," having tools like journals, previous reading recordings, and IADC experiences provides the "mechanism" to dig oneself out of the valleys of despair. Induced After-Death Communication (IADC) Dr. Mo explains IADC, a technique refined by the late Dr. Allan Botkin. Adapted from EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), IADC targets the "core of sadness" and fear. By integrating traumatic memories into the brain's background, the person’s internal frequency shifts, making them naturally more receptive to spontaneous after-death communications. Practitioners find that when sadness is reduced toward zero, the likelihood of a profound connection increases significantly. The discussion underscores that grief recovery is a multi-dimensional process involving the physical, psychological, and spiritual. By combining the evidential "knowing" of mediumship with clinical tools like IADC and the support of in-person communities, the bereaved can transform their relationship with loss, moving from acute suffering to a sustained, loving connection with those on the other side. Bringing You Evidence of An Afterlife Since 2004 Forever Family Foundation is a global 100%volunteer non-profit, non-sectarian organization that supports the premise that life does not end with physical death, furthers the understanding of Afterlife Science and survival of consciousness, and offers support to the bereaved. Among the active members of the organization and the executive board are scientists, researchers, medical doctors, philosophers and educators who have devoted substantial parts of their careers to the investigation of the survival hypothesis - an existence beyond this physical world.

    Signs of Life - Personal Experiences - hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Personal Encounters and exploring the afterlife Join us for an engaging discussion on personal experiences that challenge mainstream beliefs. Everyone has a story worth sharing, and we invite you to join the conversation and explore the meanings behind these experiences. This event is hosted by experts dedicated to understanding consciousness and the afterlife. Don’t miss out! Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. This episode of Signs of Life Radio explores the survival of consciousness through direct personal experiences, moving beyond mediumship to focus on how individuals receive signs and integrate spiritual encounters into their daily lives. The discussion highlights the profound healing found in "spiritual awakenings" and the consistent messages of love and reassurance sent from the other side. Direct Signs and Physical Manifestations The program opens with the premise that everyone has a story that might provide vital reassurance to others. Co-host Janet Mayer shares a personal account of a physical sign: a massage ball in her home moved 20 feet and navigated a 90-degree turn into the kitchen overnight. Despite attempts to replicate the movement naturally, the hosts concluded it was a deliberate sign from a deceased friend whom Janet had recently asked for a signal. The "Activation" and Spiritual Awakening A caller named Sean describes a profound encounter six months after his father's passing. He felt a humanoid shape—described as a "heatwave"—that emitted an electrical static sensation. Upon asking the entity to approach, he felt a "merging" embrace that filled him with absolute joy and love. The hosts interpret this "static" as a frequency adjustment or an "activation" of the soul. Sean notes that this experience eventually led to a spiritual awakening where he was able to forgive generational trauma and realize a sense of universal "oneness." Interestingly, Sean and the hosts discuss how physical "setbacks," such as Sean’s fractured ankle or co-host Kim’s broken shoulder, often serve as a "universe smackdown." These injuries force a period of stillness and isolation, providing the necessary environment for contemplation and the integration of intense spiritual experiences that the busy "physical" self might otherwise ignore. Reassurance and the "Cluster" Effect The dialogue shifts to the nature of messages from the deceased. Rather than complex instructions, the most common communications are simple reassurances: "I am okay," "I did not suffer," and "I am fine." Kim shares a story of "cluster communications" where multiple family members received independent signs from a deceased daughter, Lisa, all conveying her happiness in the spiritual realm. Betty Kovach adds that both her son and husband communicated after their respective accidents that they were "out of the body" before the moment of impact, specifically to alleviate the living family's fear of their suffering. Healing Unborn Connections The episode concludes with a moving testimony from Laura, who shares her 30-year connection with the soul of a child she never brought into the world. She identifies this spirit as "Lily," a guide who represents the message of "loving yourself." The hosts validate that connections with miscarried or aborted children are common and profound, often serving as a catalyst for the parent's own spiritual healing and the release of deep-seated trauma. The overarching theme of the discussion is that spiritual experiences are unique, personal, and valid regardless of their scale. Whether through the movement of a small object or a life-altering energetic embrace, these signs serve to "pull back the veil," reminding humanity of its creative potential and the enduring nature of love beyond the physical world.

    Signs of Life - Medium Insights with Host Roman Karpishka Guest: #FFFCertifiedMedium Angelina Diana Angelina has the distinction of being the first medium to be certified by Forever Family Foundation when we began our program in 2005. After she passed the test the first time, she went through the certification program various times to help FFF refine the program and open it up to other mediums. She passed each new version of the Certification Program. This episode of Signs of Life Radio features a deep-dive conversation with veteran medium Angelina Diana, exploring her 25-year career and the evolution of the Forever Family Foundation. The discussion balances scientific inquiry with personal narratives, offering practical advice for those seeking to connect with deceased loved ones beyond traditional "signs." The Evolution of a Medium and the Foundation Angelina Diana, one of the first mediums certified by the Forever Family Foundation in 2005, is currently celebrating her 25th year in practice. She reflects on the rigorous standards of the Foundation’s certification program, noting that while many apply, very few—approximately one in fifty—successfully pass the testing process. The conversation also highlights the organization's historical connection to scientific research, specifically the work of Dr. Gary Schwartz and his triple-blind experiments aimed at validating the legitimacy of mediumship. Mechanics of the Unseen: Psychic vs. Mediumship A significant portion of the dialogue clarifies the distinction between psychic ability and mediumship. Angelina explains that while "every medium is a psychic, not every psychic is a medium." She categorizes psychometry—reading the energy of physical objects—as a psychic practice rather than mediumship, as it deals with residual physical energy rather than direct communication with a consciousness. She shares that her own transition into mediumship was spontaneous, occurring during a psychic fair when she began sensing a presence that wasn't physically in the room. Cultivating "Personal Mediumship" For those grieving, Angelina advocates for the development of a "spiritual muscle" through what she calls "personal mediumship." Rather than relying solely on external signs like finding pennies or feathers, she encourages individuals to engage in active meditation and "coffee talks" with the deceased. This involves visualizing a familiar setting, asking a question, and quietly observing the resulting feelings, tastes, or sounds. She emphasizes that while the logical brain (the ego) will often dismiss these experiences as "made up," consistent practice allows the invisible world to speak more clearly. Extraordinary Evidence and Callers The show concludes with powerful anecdotal evidence from callers. One caller, Melanie, describes discovering the rare word "peregrination" (meaning a long journey or a temporary stay on Earth) while searching for a book title, which she felt was a direct gift from her late daughter. Another caller, Vivian, shares a humorous account of receiving a mysterious Amazon package containing the exact shoes and cat treats her late mother used to buy, despite no order being placed. These stories serve to illustrate the guest's point that spirits often "insert" themselves into our lives through timing and specific triggers. The episode reinforces the idea that consciousness survives physical death and remains accessible through both professional mediumship and personal intention. By balancing the "skeptical brain" with the "spiritual muscle," individuals can move from observing random signs to maintaining a meaningful, ongoing relationship with those on the other side. Bringing You Evidence of An Afterlife Since 2004 Forever Family Foundation is a global 100%volunteer non-profit, non-sectarian organization that supports the premise that life does not end with physical death, furthers the understanding of Afterlife Science and survival of consciousness, and offers support to the bereaved.

    Signs of Life - The Gathering With Bob Ginsberg, Marta Kane and Tom and Melissa Gould The Mechanics of the Afterlife: Life Reviews and Ethics This episode of Signs of Life radio, hosted by the Forever Family Foundation, explores the intersection of scientific inquiry and spiritual experience. The discussion features Bob Ginsberg, Tom and Melissa Gould, and Marta Kristen as they address listener questions regarding the scientific acceptance of the afterlife, the nature of life reviews, and the validity of various forms of mediumship. The Evolution of Scientific Acceptance The hosts discuss the subtle but significant shift in their show's closing mantra from "science is going to prove it" to "science is going to accept it." This change reflects the reality that while substantial evidence exists through studies of Near-Death Experiences (NDEs), reincarnation, and mediumship, the broader scientific community remains hesitant to integrate these findings into the mainstream "big picture". Tom Gould emphasizes that quantum physics, a relatively young field, may eventually provide the necessary framework to explain how consciousness exists independently of the physical brain, focusing on the "space between the material" as the true source of universal power. Perspectives from Space and Intuition Marta Kristen shares insights from her interactions with NASA astronauts, noting that many return from space with a fundamentally altered, more spiritual view of the universe. This "Overview Effect" often leads to a sense of unity and the realization that consciousness might be a universal constant. Additionally, the group explores personal intuition, with Melissa Gould describing communication with the deceased as a "subtle knowing" rather than a dramatic event, suggesting that everyone may possess an inherent, albeit often untapped, ability to sense the other side. The Mechanics of the Afterlife: Life Reviews and Ethics A significant portion of the dialogue centers on the "Life Review," described not as a trial by an external deity, but as a process of intense self-evaluation. In this state, individuals feel the emotional impact—both positive and negative—that their actions had on others. The hosts also address a caller's concern about "lying" spirits and "punishment." They clarify that while some mediums may be irresponsible or fraudulent, the consensus in the spiritual community is that the afterlife is governed by love and self-judgment rather than external retribution or malevolent deception. Technology and Physical Manifestations The discussion concludes with an examination of Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP) and physical mediumship. Bob Ginsberg shares personal accounts of receiving clear, evidential audio messages from his late wife, such as "Happy Birthday" and the name of their foundation. While skeptical of "dark-room" seances due to the difficulty of verification, the hosts remain open to Instrumental Transcommunication (ITC) as a more accessible and potentially scientific method for validating the continued existence of the soul. The episode reinforces the idea that the survival of consciousness is supported by a "totality of evidence" ranging from quantum physics to profound personal experiences. By moving away from rigid religious dogmas of punishment and toward a model of self-reflection and universal love, the Forever Family Foundation seeks to provide a grounded, evidence-based hope for those navigating grief and seeking the truth about the afterlife.

    Signs of Life - Personal Experiences hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. (Although Mediums Provide A Valuable Connection To The Deceased, This Show Centers Around YOUR Direct Experiences Which Do Not Involve A Medium.) Collect Your Stories and Join Us This episode of Signs of Life Radio features hosts Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra exploring the profound ways deceased loved ones communicate with the living. Through personal anecdotes and caller testimonies, the program highlights how acknowledging "signs" can transform the grieving process into a journey of spiritual connection and healing. The episode begins with host Janet Mayer sharing a personal account of electronic interference, a common medium for spirit communication. She recounts her computer crashing immediately after she mentally addressed her late uncle, whom she described as a "jokester." This event, coupled with her work in Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP), underscores the theme that spirits often manipulate energy to provide playful or urgent validation of their presence. Janet specifically references an EVP recording where a spirit stated, "We are in your world," emphasizing that the deceased remain intimately connected to our daily reality rather than residing in a distant, unreachable location. Callers Carol and Christine provide vivid examples of how these signs manifest in specific, personal ways. Carol describes receiving comfort from her 11-year-old grandson, Ivan, through the repeated appearance of ladybugs and references to the game Minecraft. Christine shares a unique "morning song" phenomenon where specific lyrics—such as Crosby, Stills & Nash’s "Southern Cross"—pop into her head upon waking, often correlating directly with her life decisions or travel plans. The hosts suggest that these musical messages are not random but are tailored to the recipient's personality and shared history with the deceased. The dialogue also addresses the emotional complexity of grief, particularly when it involves difficult relationships. Caller Lisa, who is visually impaired, discusses her late mother’s communication through flickering lights. Despite a complicated past, Lisa felt her mother’s support when a stranger unexpectedly helped her with difficult paperwork. The hosts reflect on the "surprising creativity of grief," noting that while sorrow and joy are intertwined, remaining open to signs can help move an individual from a "frozen" state of anger or pain into a more "transcendent" space of peace. The episode concludes with a story about a young girl named Marie, whose father, after a tragic passing, played "Mary Had a Little Lamb" on a basement piano to comfort her. This narrative serves as a final testament to the idea that the bond between loved ones is not severed by death, but merely changes form. The hosts encourage listeners to foster their own "spirit practice" by maintaining an internal dialogue with those who have passed. This discussion reaffirms that the survival of consciousness is evidenced through a variety of personal, often playful, communications. By staying open, practicing gratitude, and acknowledging the presence of the deceased in our physical world, individuals can find a path through grief toward a continued relationship with those they have lost. Bringing You Evidence of An Afterlife Since 2004 Forever Family Foundation is a global 100%volunteer non-profit, non-sectarian organization that supports the premise that life does not end with physical death, furthers the understanding of Afterlife Science and survival of consciousness, and offers support to the bereaved.

    Medium & Messages With Host: #FFFCertifiedMedium Joe Perreta and Guest:FFFCertifiedMedium Joelle Tremblay Joelle has trained with many international teachers in mediumship and yoga to enhance her natural gifts. Having completed hundreds of readings, she is strongly in tune with spirit, allowing her to help you receive communication from your loved ones on the other side. She compares a reading to a hug from a loved one. Her role is simply to be the interpreter, the translator between you and them, helping you reconnect. Alongside her mediumship, Joelle writes children’s books focused on spirituality and losing a loved one, with all proceeds supporting non-profit organizations. She lives in Canada but also does private readings via Zoom. This episode of Signs of Life features host Joe Peretta and guest medium Joelle Tremblay, the only Forever Family Foundation certified medium in Canada. The program explores the survival of consciousness through personal interviews and live on-air readings, providing evidence-based connections between callers and their deceased loved ones. Organizational Updates and Community Events The Forever Family Foundation continues its mission to explore non-physical realities and support those navigating grief. Key upcoming initiatives include the Visionary Explorers Group, which meets monthly to discuss after-death communications and subtle body experiences, and the Summer Grief Transformation Retreat. The retreat, previously featured in the Netflix series Surviving Death, offers an intimate, all-inclusive environment for participants to explore the reality of life beyond physical death through breakout sessions and presentations. The Practicality of Mediumship During the discussion, Joe and Joelle demystify the process of "getting in the zone" for a reading. Rather than relying on elaborate rituals, crystals, or incense, both mediums emphasize the importance of mental health and emotional clarity. Joelle utilizes grounding exercises and non-religious prayer to maintain a "high vibration," while Joe focuses on checking his internal mood to ensure he is in a positive headspace. They describe the process as "turning off the human part" to allow spirit communication to flow without the "static" of daily stresses or emotional clutter. Interestingly, both mediums admit that connecting with their own family members is significantly more difficult than reading for strangers. They attribute this to a lack of objectivity and the belief that having constant access to their own "spirit team" might interfere with the personal growth and lessons they are meant to experience in this lifetime. On-Air Readings and Validations The latter half of the show features several live readings where Joelle provides specific evidence to callers: -Susan (Tennessee): Connection with her son, who passed quickly and traumatically. Validations included his "beaming personality" and his presence alongside Susan’s father and grandmother. The message emphasized releasing guilt and looking for physical signs like birds and feathers. -Carrie (Cleveland): Connection with her maternal grandfather. He validated Carrie’s role as a mother and mentioned her own mother’s current trip. A "jolly, puppy-like" dog also stepped forward. -Tom (Virginia): Connection with his daughter on the one-year anniversary of her passing. She was described as a "big feeler" who connects through nature. Validations included a specific angled photo frame and a mention of neurological issues/seizures within the family. -Christine (Florida): A "ladies' night" connection with her mother and mother-in-law. Validations included a specific jar of red jam (Smuckers) and the mother-in-law’s habit of putting the kettle on for tea. -Laura (Florida): Connection with her daughter, described as "sparkly" and a lover of K-pop and dancing. She validated that Laura was wearing her earrings at the moment of the call and sent messages of encouragement for her brother’s studies. The episode reinforces the Foundation's message that "love truly continues." Through specific, mundane validations—like a brand of jam or a pair of earrings—the mediums demonstrate that the bond between the living and the deceased remains intact, offering profound comfort to those in the midst of grief.

    Signs of Life - Medium Insights with Host Roman Karpishka Guest: #FFFCertifiedMedium Bobbi Allison Unlike many others in her field, Bobbi can relay messages from master guides through automatic writing. She is also a remote viewer, enabling her soul to be transported to locations of missing items and people. For over a decade, Bobbi has helped hundreds around the globe, including law enforcement and private investigators. In this episode of Signs of Life, host Roman Karpiwska interviews certified medium Bobbi Allison to explore the mechanics of spiritual communication and the survival of consciousness. The discussion provides practical advice for connecting with "the other side" while delving into the ethical boundaries and profound personal experiences that define a medium's work. Practical Techniques for Spiritual Connection Bobbi Allison emphasizes that everyone has the potential to connect with their "team" of angels and guides. The most effective methods include meditation to raise one's vibration and automatic writing. For automatic writing, she suggests a simple ritual: lighting a white candle, saying a prayer of protection, and asking questions while allowing the pen to be guided by spiritual energy. She notes that the "alpha state"—the bridge between being awake and asleep—is a prime time for receiving messages because the conscious ego is less likely to interfere with the transmission. The Mechanics and Ethics of Mediumship A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on how mediums manage their gifts. Bobbi describes mediumship as "tuning in and out" rather than turning a switch on or off. She adheres to strict ethical guidelines, such as those set by the Forever Family Foundation, which prohibit giving unsolicited readings to strangers in public. She also shares a compelling story regarding a 9/11 victim who used automatic writing to provide specific evidence—such as the "Tinker Bell" collectibles—to prove his identity to his grieving family. The Structure of the Soul and Healing Bobbi introduces a unique perspective on the soul's architecture, describing a "Main Soul" and "Fractals." Fractals are parts of the soul that step forward to experience trauma and "take the beatings" of life to protect the core soul. She also recounts a transformative near-death-like experience during a healing session with Pat Longo, where she felt her spirit leave her body and enter a state of "powder blue" euphoric bliss. This experience solidified her commitment to mediumship as a tool for healing rather than just information gathering. Signs, Symbols, and the Afterlife The conversation concludes with advice on asking for signs. Bobbi asserts that spirits love providing specific, even "silly" signs—like an ice cream cone in winter or a purple dog—to confirm their presence. She also touches on the theory of soulmates, suggesting that our "true" soulmate often remains on the other side to guide us, while we interact with various "soul partners" during our earthly incarnation to facilitate growth. The interview highlights that mediumship is fundamentally a service of healing and validation. By understanding the mechanics of the "alpha state," respecting ethical boundaries, and learning to recognize the "fractal" nature of our experiences, individuals can better navigate their own spiritual journeys and maintain a connection with loved ones who have transitioned.
