Are you sober? Or trying to get sober but keep relapsing? Have you considered the amazing life you can have once you experience a spiritual awakening and finally know your value, worth, and true place in the world.

Alcoholics and addicts are hardworking, industrious, and resourceful people—born leaders. Join Amanda and her guest Dr. Robb Kelly, a well-established author, recovery expert and CEO of the Robb Kelly Recovery Group, an addiction and mental illness recovery coaching company created based on extensive neuroscience research and behavioral studies conducted over the past 20 years, for an inspiring take on the potential of the addict and alcohol once they kick the habit.

🔥How understanding neuroscience in addiction is a crucial part of the formula for sobriety

Do you believe that you can communicate with your departed loved ones in spirit? Have you had such an experience or are you curious about it?

Join Amanda and her guest, Kelly Daugherty, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Fellow in Thanatology, and Board Certified Coach with more than twenty years of experience supporting individuals and families after the death of a loved one for an in depth look at Induced After Death Communication, the therapeutic process used to bridge connection between the seen and the unseen.

Together, the ladies explore:

🔥Kelly's personal story of losing her mother at 14 years old (and dad just recently) and how her pain motivated her to study death, dying, and bereavement, and how she helps grievers navigate loss in a therapeutic setting

🔥How grief therapists, coaches, educators, and other professionals are sometimes expected not to grieve and how Kelly handles that

🔥The reason for the resistance to Induced After Death Communication therapy (and other forms of communicating with the departed)

🔥Kelly's personal journey with IADC and how she released resentment and found peace around her father's death experience.

🔥Kelly's podcast The GRIEF Ladies, based on the anagram GRIEF, trail markers to help you move forward through your grief

🔥Their belief that the stigma around "woo-woo" concepts such as communicating with the departed will diminish in time and become an accepted, mainstream ideology

Kelly owns a private clinical practice in Malta, New York, and is the founder of the Center for Informed Grief and co-creator of the GRIEF Ladies podcast. Kelly develops and leads grief-informed trainings for therapists, schools, and organizations nationwide, and facilitates group experiences and retreats that help individuals find meaning, connection, and growth following loss.
