Who are we really—beyond our names, titles, and experiences? What if everything you’ve believed about yourself is only a fraction of the truth?
In this remarkable episode of Beacons of Balance, we sit down with the radiant Dr. Ingrid Honkala—a marine biologist, former NASA scientist, and spiritual teacher—who shares her unforgettable journey that began at just two years old when she drowned and crossed into another realm.
There, she was met by Beings of Light who revealed profound truths about who we are, why we’re here, and what "home" truly means. Her story is not only a near-death experience—it’s a near-life awakening.
This episode is an emotional, thought-provoking, and soul-igniting conversation that touches on:
✅ The moment she drowned and left her body
✅ Meeting divine Beings of Light and what they told her
✅ Discovering that “home” is not a place—it’s a state of being
✅ How her scientific background enhances her spiritual insights
✅ The profound healing power of listening, gratitude, and presence
✅ What she learned in her third NDE, when she was finally given a choice to return
✨ Whether you're facing loss, seeking purpose, or simply curious about what lies beyond the veil—this conversation is a guidepost for the soul.
