This episode came to life thanks to Suzanne Giesemann, who sensed that writer and mystic Lynette Setzkorn and I needed to connect. I’m so grateful she made that introduction.
Lynette is a spiritual cheerleader who explores how fear, trauma, grief, and forgiveness can ultimately become gateways to freedom. She shares her remarkable life journey with honesty, warmth, and wisdom, beginning with early religious trauma that instilled a profound fear of death and shaped much of her inner world for decades.
We hear how the disappearance of her mother when Lynette was just twelve years old marked a before-and-after moment in her life, setting the stage for years of grief, addiction, and self-destructive behavior. Her path toward healing began in 12-step programs, where she experienced a spiritual awakening that would become the foundation for her lifelong spiritual exploration. Later, her work as a child abuse investigator and sexual abuse specialist exposed her to extreme human suffering, while also deepening her compassion and understanding of trauma, identity, and resilience.
After her husband’s very traumatic death in 2012, Lynette’s lifelong spiritual path took a turn when she discovered evidential mediumship, ultimately transforming her fear of death into a recognition that there’s nothing to fear, and this knowing has reshaped her understanding of love, consciousness, and life beyond the physical.
Throughout the conversation, we explore the idea that light and darkness coexist, that we are never the worst things we’ve done, and that radical self-love has the power to change not only our own lives, but the world around us.
In this episode, you will hear:
- Healing from religious trauma and a lifelong fear of death

- Grief, PTSD, and rage following the death of a spouse
- The transformative power of forgiveness and compassion
- Discovering spiritual awakening through recovery and lived experience
