NDE Synchronicity

I was surfing my YouTube subscriptions and a “suggested” video popped up. The title “Alcoholic Dies & Meets her Ancestors on the Other Side” snagged my attention. I was neither a subscriber to the channel “Coming Home” nor had ever seen Louisa Peck, the woman in the video.

Later that evening, I looked up information about an upcoming International Association for Near Death Studies (IANDS) conference. I attended a mediumship workshop led by Suzanne Giesemann in Spokane the previous weekend and had met with Rachelle Gehman, medium and psychic, the day before. Both Suzanne and Rachelle mentioned the IANDS conference, which piqued my interest.

While looking up the conference, the Seattle IANDS chapter came up in the search results, and I learned that the monthly meeting would be the next day and feature a young woman who recently had a profound NDE. I attended my first IANDS meeting. Kim, a joyful, warm, and open-hearted woman welcomed me (she would be the emcee for the meeting).

About ten minutes into the program, a woman entered the room and slipped into my row and sat directly next to me. It happened so quickly, yet I thought I’d recognized her. It would have been rude to turn and look directly at her, but I saw the blue ring on her left hand in the video and knew she was Louisa Peck.

At the end of the guest speaker’s talk and before audience Q&A, Kim came back to the front of the room and pointed to Louisa and me saying, “You’re connected.” I felt a hot flush and showed Louisa my iPhone with her video in my YouTube history. I bought her book, which she happened to have in her bag and with exact cash, which I very rarely carry in my pocket.
