Send us a textFinally, I’ve got a doctor in the house! Get ready for this frank yet refreshing discussion I enjoyed with Dr. Natasha Trujillo about many of the tough and unspoken truths about grief that I’ve been waiting to explore with the right psychologist on my podcast!In this educational episode, learn from Dr.Trujillo as she delves into the profound complexities of grief and loss, exploring how multiple losses—both death-related and other types of loss - are a universal part of our human experience and should not be ignored! With a unique blend of academic insight, and personal and professional wisdom, she shares how embracing our vulnerability can foster deeper connections with others and contribute to a more healed and meaningful life.In her new book And She Was Never the Same Again, Dr. Trujillo rejects the pathologization and over-medication of grief and challenges the more conventional notions we have about loss and grief, advocating for a natural and personalized approach that while deeply personal, is universal to us all.Her approach to therapy based on lived experience and rigorous study, offers her patients and in this episode, my audience, a unique and transformative perspective on understanding and navigating grief to help us heal from both generational trauma and personal grief experiences to help us live to a more meaningful and holistically healed life.Connect with Dr. Trujillo:www.npttherapy.com www.andshewasneverthesameagain.comConnect with Vonne:https://vonnesolis.comSubscribe to the podcast!

Ashmeeta's story is a poignant example, having lost both her parents and unexpectedly in 2019, her husband at a young age. As an expat living in the USA, she understands how grief can create additional stressors around cultural identity and isolation, adding layers of complexity to the healing process. Yet with an abundance of resilience and raw vulnerability, Ashmeeta shares how she learned to embrace her most difficult losses (her mother and husband) and offers a masterclass to help anyone discover their own resilience and find hope in this two-part interview series.While much of the discussion focuses on spousal loss, all of what we talk about offers a powerful and impactful discourse to help anyone navigate their grief journey from any form of loss, which is always filled with sorrow and change and embrace their new reality.In the second part, we delve into the concept of fear, discovering ways to reframe it positively. We also discuss preparing for the unexpected, the importance of self-talk and self-love, the healing aspects of forgiveness and gratitude, and how mindfulness and self-reflection can guide you towards progress during times of grief.Part 2 Episode on YouTube:Part 1 Episode on audio:https://www.buzzsprout.com/2021182/15003739Part 1 Episode on YouTube:https://youtu.be/mDtpF2GPvcIConnect with Ashmeeta:https://storyoutellyourself.com/Connect with Vonne:https://vonnesolis.comSubscribe to the podcast!

Send us a textIn this Divine Healing Coaching episode, learn all about the first of the 5 Divine Healing principles that were channelled  to me by the angels, and my daughter Janaya, after her suicide in 2005 and over a five-year period, as I wrote my first book “Divine Healing Transforming Pain into Personal Power”.The first principle speaks to the importance of honouring the sacredness of your life as you learn more and more how to accept responsibility for all of your life experiences. Both good and bad.Part of my mission on this planet is to help change the consciousness of those who are suffering or have suffered and want to find a meaningful, purpose-driven life.  And just as I had to rethink all of my spiritual beliefs after the loss of Janaya that I had believed in for 23 years at the time of her passing, many people feel they must question their faith and beliefs after loss, tragedy or difficult adversity.Nineteen years later, I still stand by these 5 principles that are designed to help anyone find a meaningful and purpose-driven life, based on the tools, practices and messaging contained within each one, as those that have guided me to the healing and perfection I’ve found in my life to this point.

Send us a textMy guest on this episode is author and award-winning artist, Marie Antoinette Kelley. Her recently published children’s book, “Danny’s Day in Heaven” with the afterword by Dannion Brinkley, author of "Saved by the Light", is the first children's book of its kind. It teaches parents how to start the conversation with their children about death and the afterlife and that it is not something to fear. But rather that our loved ones are never gone, as evidenced by both science and the messages and teachings of people who have experienced near death and share what the afterlife is like."Danny's Day in Heaven" is both written and illustrated by Marie Antoinette, who  has commissioned hundreds of portraits, as well as the art for the Angel Quest Oracle. She has appeared on multiple TV, radio, and podcast shows, and been published in magazines, including Edge and Authority.  In 2019, Marie Antoinette's bison portrait in the form of woven blankets began selling throughout Yellowstone National Park’s general stores.Please join us in this compelling conversation that inspires all of us  to reconsider death, the afterlife and the ways in which we can connect more deeply to Spirit and our loved ones on the other side.TIMESTAMP:Grief, death, and the afterlife with author and artist Marie Antoinette Kelly.
