This episode I am reading from Holly Porter's book 'Near Death Shift : What Dying Taught Me About Life, Business, and Purpose'.
When everything fell apart, grace held her together.
After seventy days in the hospital—including two intubations, a coma, and a near-death experience—Holly Porter awoke to a life forever changed. Near Death Shift is her breathtaking true story of survival, spiritual awakening, and divine purpose.
When Holly entered the hospital, she had no idea her world was about to stop breathing. Fighting for her life through sepsis, paralysis, and weeks on a ventilator, she experienced what few ever have—a journey beyond the veil. In that sacred realm, she found herself surrounded by a radiant stadium of light, angelic choirs, and divine messages that would reshape everything she believed about life, leadership, and love.
What she brought back was more than hope—it was a blueprint for transformation. Through her signature SHIFT framework—Surrender, Hope, Intuition, Faith, and Transformation—Holly reveals how pain can become purpose and how surrender can lead to strength. Each lesson offers spiritual and practical guidance for anyone navigating loss, trauma, or the longing to live a more purposeful life.
As Holly learned to walk, breathe, and live again, she also learned how to listen—how to trust the quiet voice of divine intuition and follow the signs that would lead her to rebuild not just her body, but her mission. Her near-death experience became a new beginning, inspiring the creation of Retreat RnR, a platform for transformational retreats, and the Adventure Bucket Wish Foundation, dedicated to helping women lead with purpose, passion, and presence.
Blending powerful storytelling with timeless spiritual truths, Near Death Shift invites readers to see their own challenges through the lens of grace. It’s a reminder that the hardest seasons often carry the seeds of our greatest callings—and that even in the darkest nights, love and light remain.
Whether you’ve faced illness, loss, burnout, or a crisis of faith, this book will meet you where you are and guide you toward healing and hope. With honesty, humor, and hard-won wisdom, Holly shows that no matter what you’ve endured, your story isn’t over—it’s shifting you toward the person you were always meant to become.

✨ How to find divine meaning in life’s hardest moments
