62. Her Daughter Speaks to Spirits: A Story of Love, Surrender & The Unseen

There are some experiences that challenge what we think we know.Experiences that invite us to ask bigger questions about consciousness, connection, and what may exist beyond what we can see.In Part 2 of my conversation with my dear friend, physician, author, and mother Dr. Tasha Faruqui, we explore a side of her family's story that is deeply personal and unlike anything we have discussed on this podcast before.As Tasha's daughter Soraya's condition has progressed, the family has experienced moments that have opened them to questions far bigger than medicine alone.Questions about consciousness.Love.And what becomes possible when we remain open to mystery.This conversation is not about telling you what to believe.It is an invitation to stay curious.In Part 2, we discuss:• The experiences that led Tasha and her family to believe something larger was unfolding• What near-death experience research may teach us about consciousness• Why children may perceive the world differently than adults• The lessons Soraya continues to teach about love, compassion, and what truly mattersWhether you approach this conversation as a skeptic, a believer, or simply someone who is curious, my hope is that it invites you to explore these questions with an open mind.Because sometimes the most meaningful questions are the ones we cannot fully explain.And sometimes the purpose is simply love.About Dr. Tasha Faruqui:Dr. Tasha Faruqui is a pediatrician, author, speaker, advocate, and mother of three.
