If death is an end, then I know for certain there is nothing final about it. My mission is to tell people not to be afraid of death so that you can fully live this life now. I beautifully present how my NDE, while a cadet at the USAFA (my memory coming back almost 20 years later), became a Spiritually Transformative Experience over many decades. This aligns with the 10 common NDE lessons from NDE’s that IANDS published in it’s 2020 Annual Report the first of which is “we do not die.”

Three amazing IANDS community members will share their spiritual experiences with us!
Mike was in a terrible vehicle accident seven years ago, and it altered every aspect of his life. He experienced a unique NDE, one that few others ever had to endure. While he was still alive at the time of the collision, he felt he was reincarnated. Mike had a full walk-in experience, and his life is forever changed.
Elke witnessed her husband’s death while he experienced his near-death experience as well as his death. She’ll share stories of love and connection from her spiritual perspective and as a loved one on “this side of the veil.”
Child experiencers, especially those who had an experience between the ages of 0-5 and pre-birth memories, bring a wealth of knowledge about rare topics in NDE discussions and research. PMH Atwater is an expert on child experiencers and wants to share with you the most important things she learned from her research.

Beginning with the moment of his death, Madelyn Freeman experienced direct communion with her son and was given a brief but striking insight into the true nature of reality and the primacy of consciousness. She writes, “We are embedded in a flow of information that comes to us or through us, but does not necessarily depend on our own thinking.”
Brian Smith will share how he went from a fear of death (thanatophobia) to knowing that death is not the end, just a transition. This is an expanded speech Brian gave at the Helping Parents Heal conference, which received rave reviews and a request for him to speak again.
You’ve believed in pain’s realness more than your ability to overcome it. Realign your beliefs with truth and let go of the idea of pain once and for all.
It felt like my life had ended with that of my wife’s. But after her passing, she had sent me a message. Within it lay just enough reason to fight for new breath, enough motivation to discover where she was, and enough inspiration to create an entirely new life for myself as I traveled the world seeking answers, healing, meaning, purpose and a new understanding of what it meant to love. This is where my story begins.
I share with you my story of what it was like for me to die for nearly 24 hours, come back the next day and have 26 strokes. I will present eyewitness accounts, documents and social media post of the day of and after the event. I share my story to prove the strength of prayer, faith, perseverance, the strengths of the human body and most importantly the power of the highest that proves that death is not the end but a continuation of existence.
Several NDErs learned that we, as souls inside humans, share Source’s power of manifesting physical matter and reality because we are parts of Source.

Brett has experienced shared death experiences with loved ones, patients, and even his wife who passed away in 2021. Brett has experienced his own near-death experience due to major illness.
