In this episode, Jeff Smith, a seasoned astrologer and tarot reader, shares insights into how these spiritual tools can reveal deeper self-understanding, cycles, and potential. We explore the nature of predictions, free will, and how to use astrology and tarot for personal growth.

Ty Kenworthy shares a firsthand near-death experience that reshaped his beliefs about life, death, consciousness, and purpose. In this conversation, he and Joseph Paul trace how that experience deepened Ty’s connection to spiritualism, intensified his intuition, and changed the way he lives, works, and relates to family. We discuss not just what happened in the hospital, but how Ty interprets the experience now, how it affected his sense of fear, and why he sees his life as “borrowed time.”

• Ty’s religious upbringing and how his grandmother’s death led him toward Camp Chesterfield and spiritualism.
• The serious illness that led to his hospital stay and near-death experience in 2019.
• Ty’s account of being told he had “fulfilled his contract” and could choose to stay or go.
• His experience of standing before God in a bright white space and choosing to return for his family and children.
• The unexplained IV injection and sudden recovery he describes after the experience.
• How the event changed his views on faith, death, consciousness, and purpose.
• Ty’s reflections on intuition, spiritual growth, relationships, and his “soul plan.”
• His advice for people facing a spiritual awakening: seek support and don’t hesitate to ask questions.
