Karina Machado speaks with Theresa Byrne, a martial-arts and self-defence expert living in Colorado, whose near-death experience in 2014 following a hit-and-run impacted every facet of her life. From the physical after-effects of a Traumatic Brain injury, to the spiritual inquiry sparked by the NDE, and being diagnosed with PTSD, depression and anxiety, Theresa had a lot to cope with during her two-year recovery. Her experiences led eventually to her acclaimed TED X Talk, The Danger of Your Inner Bully.
I so enjoyed my conversation with Theresa. We spoke about the two prayers she spontaneously uttered as her car was about to collide with a brick wall, the ineffable peace she felt in a "grey" place, the life review that showed her she was on a "human hamster wheel" and never stopped to appreciate the good she'd done for others, how our thoughts and words are so powerful, the answer she received when she asked about "the name of God" and the importance of fulfilling our soul's mission in a self-honouring way. Plus, so much more!
As her story unfolded, I found much I could relate to, and learn from, and I think you will too. Stick around to the end when she shares three of the most powerful takeaways from her life-changing near-death experience.
