I sit down with Dr. Bruce Greyson, one of the world’s foremost experts on Near-Death Experiences, who has dedicated nearly 40 years to studying this fascinating phenomenon. He is the author of several books, including After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond. Dr. Greyson is a Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia and the former director of UVA’s Division of Perceptual Studies. Dr. Greyson’s interest in Near-Death Experiences began just months after graduating from medical school, when an unconscious patient in the emergency room later described an out-of-body experience in vivid detail. This encounter challenged his beliefs about the relationship between the mind and the brain, sparking a lifelong journey of scientific exploration that has led to over a hundred medical publications on Near-Death Experiences.

In the early days of the pandemic, Annalise and her boyfriend decided to go camping at a spot that had been in her family for decades. The location was very isolated, off the grid, and required a six-mile hike through dense forest to reach. As they trekked through the wilderness, they couldn't shake the eerie feeling of being watched. Despite the unease, they pressed on, dismissing it as paranoia. Once at the campsite, they encountered other strange occurrences, and a mysterious sound that left them shaken to their core and grasping for answers.

Last year, during the first interview with Solveig, I learned that she had a reading with Wendy coming up. This was early 2023, and I was still just getting to know Wendy (the clairvoyant from the "Ball of Light" episodes) and having trouble wrapping my head around her in general. Then I met Solveig, and it was just so much to process at once. I thought it would be interesting to sort of test them both by recording this reading and ensuring that Wendy knew nothing about Solveig or her story going into it. I also wanted to do this because there were things Wendy had told me in the past that were very similar to some of the things Solveig had told me.
