Kimberly Saavedra Opens a Personal Experiences Conversation

In this episode of Signs of Life Radio, Kimberly Saavedra, Director of the Coma Communication Center, is joined by Dr. Betty Kovacs and Janet Mayer for a Personal Experiences program focused on survival of consciousness and direct afterlife encounters. The hosts invite callers to share experiences that do not involve mediums, including signs, communications, and moments that challenge mainstream views of death and consciousness. Kimberly notes how meaningful it is when all three hosts can be together, while Janet begins by returning to a powerful caller story from the previous month.

Returning to Laura’s Story of Love After an Abortion

Janet revisits the prior show’s final caller, Laura, who had spoken briefly about having an abortion and later experiencing an ongoing loving connection with the spirit of the child, whom she called Lily. Janet says she wanted to give the story more space because Laura had asked whether others had similar experiences. Janet reflects that the spirit may have chosen even a brief earthly experience with Laura and that the connection may have been meaningful for both of them. Betty then shares a related story of a stillborn child whose soul, in Betty’s strong intuitive impression, had received exactly the love and nurturing it needed during pregnancy and did not need to remain longer on Earth.

Continuing Bonds and the Nearness of Loved Ones

The hosts broaden the discussion into the idea that loved ones remain close after death. Janet says people often assume the deceased are far away, but in her experience, loved ones are likely nearby, present, and trying to communicate through signs. She encourages listeners to “pay attention” and accept meaningful experiences rather than dismissing them as imagination. Betty adds that people are connected with energies, guides, and loved ones beyond the physical world, and she says that even amid troubling events on Earth, people should not fall into despair because love, prayer, meditation, song, dance, and spiritual intention are contributing to a larger field of light.

Elizabeth’s Communications with Her Son Shawn

Caller Elizabeth shares that her son Shawn died by suicide in 2015 after struggling with severe depression. She says that within 24 hours of his passing, she woke in the early morning surrounded by what felt like a glowing cocoon of love and began communicating with him telepathically. According to Elizabeth, these communications continued regularly for about ten months, during which she kept a headlamp, pen, and paper nearby so she could write them down as they occurred. She says Shawn and what she called a spirit collective helped guide her through grief, forgiveness, and renewed purpose, teaching her that love is not merely a feeling but a powerful force connecting both sides.

Shawn in Spirit Speaks and Healing Through Love

Elizabeth explains that she has now written a book titled Shawn in Spirit Speaks: Love Is the Forever Adventure. She says the book includes his words as she received them and is expected to be released near the end of the summer or early fall, with an audiobook to follow. Betty asks whether Shawn spoke about his own decision to leave life, and Elizabeth says he did, describing the soul’s growth in terms of “attunement opportunities” rather than punishment. The hosts respond with compassion, emphasizing that such a story may comfort others grieving children or loved ones who died by suicide, while also showing that relationship and love continue beyond physical death.

Books, Signs, and Stories of Evidential Contact

After Elizabeth’s call, Janet encourages listeners to read spiritual books during the summer, suggesting that a sentence, page, or passage can become a meaningful message from spirit. Kimberly then shares stories from Diane Archangel’s work on afterlife encounters, including one in which a murdered son reportedly gave his mother specific information in a dream that helped police locate evidence, and another in which a deceased mother directed her son to hidden money in the house. These stories lead the hosts to discuss how verifiable information, unexpected signs, and meaningful synchronicities can become powerful experiences for people trying to understand survival after death.

Tiffany’s Sign from Her Beloved Dog

Caller Tiffany from California shares a personal experience involving her late dog, C.K. Mr. Haven, whom she describes as the love of her life. On the anniversary of the day she had to put him down, she was saddened that she could not find photos of him on her phone because they had been moved to an external drive. That same day, while clearing old papers from a speaker so she could set up a new printer, she discovered a stack of glossy photos of C.K. Mr. Haven. Tiffany says she knew this was a visit from her dog, and the hosts affirm the importance of animal souls and the loving ways they can continue to reach people.

Spirit, Music, Language, and the Closing Prayer

Near the end, Janet reminds listeners that spirit communication can come through books, songs, dreams, sensations, and other unexpected signs. She shares that after doing a Signs of Life reading show years earlier, she felt spirit touching her feet under the covers as though calming and grounding her energy. Betty recounts experiences involving spiritual support around death, including a friend who sensed a male spirit taking over healing work near Betty’s dying son and another father who experienced drumming around his daughter’s passing. Janet also discusses her own experience of receiving a spiritual language, which led to the title of her book, Spirits, They Are Present. The show closes with the Mahayana prayer for all beings everywhere to be fulfilled, awakened, liberated, and free.
