Join Sandra Champlain in a heartfelt conversation with Cathy McHugh, a teacher for the blind, an evidential medium, and a shining light parent. After the tragic passing of her brilliant and sensitive son, Sean, from a fentanyl overdose, Cathy embarked on a profound journey of communication, healing, and understanding.
In this episode, Cathy shares the incredible and specific signs she received from Sean, including a mysterious email from a spirit helper and a childhood drawing that proved the butterflies and dragonflies she was seeing were truly from him. She introduces the beautiful concept of the "side-by-side life," explaining how our loved ones are not far away but exist in a world right alongside ours.
We also have a deep and important discussion about precognition versus manifestation, exploring the premonitions Cathy had about Sean's life and offering profound comfort to any parent who has struggled with the heavy weight of guilt and "what ifs." This conversation is a guiding light for anyone navigating grief, offering wisdom from her new book, "The Choice to Rise: Free Will in the Face of Tragedy."
