Andrea Courey is an award-winning entrepreneur, author, speaker, and sound healing meditation guide who became a caregiver to her 28-year-old daughter Chloe when she fell ill with cancer. About six weeks after Chloe’s death, Andrea sat down to write her a letter – the kind of letter a mother writes to help express her grief. Fully expecting to burn the letter upon completion, her world changed when Chloe answered, and there began a five-month-long conversation touching on everything from what Chloe was experiencing out-of-the-body to 12 Steps to Bridging Across the Veil. The result was Andrea’s first book, Conversations with Chloe: A Mother and Daughter Dialogue Across the Veil. When she wanted to understand more about how grieving mothers handle this huge loss, Andrea joined Helping Parents Heal, and from those conversations came her second book, the book she wished she could have read when Chloe passed, titled: Magical Thinking…Not! IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:   How a near-death experience kindled Andrea’s connection to Spirit Getting validation from her grandmother who passed Andrea’s conversations with her daughter that birthed the wisdom in her first book The power of apology and forgiveness What happens during a sound healing meditation event Andrea’s Life To Afterlife workshop Andrea’s tip for finding joy in life   SOME QUESTIONS IRENE ASKS ANDREA: How did your near-death experience change your beliefs and augmented your abilities to connect with and hear the spirit world? Tell us about Chloe and why do you call the year she died both difficult and blessed?  What happens during a sound healing meditation event, and how are each the same yet slightly unique? Do people who have sound healing access their loved ones and spirit?
