Lora De’Vore is an incredible role model for Grief and rebirth. She is an author, a therapist, an educator, and a catalyst for transformational change for both healthcare individuals & institutions. Her Wisdom comes from the inside out, from facing the darkest aspects of human experience and mining the dark for the treasures that can be found. Born into poverty and violence, Lora was prostituted at the age of nine and she suffered unspeakable treatment from those who should have protected her. The impact of this early Trauma led to her institutionalization soon after she started college, and an incarceration she would not have survived but for a courageous nurse, who fought for her release. Fifty years later, Lora has had a long career as a successful Mental Health professional, she is recognized as a leading educator, and she is also a sought-after public speaker.

Irene Weinberg is a public speaker, author, and host of the popular podcast Grief and Rebirth: Finding the Joy in Life. Two months before, during and just after her husband died next to her in a tragic car accident, Irene received profound messages that led to a spiritual awakening and her book They Serve Bagels in Heaven. Having learned to pay attention when seemingly “out of the blue” messages dropped into her head, one day Irene suddenly heard the word “podcast” and so began the next part of her soul purpose. The mission of Grief and Rebirth: Finding the Joy in Life Podcast, which is touching and helping people all over the world, is to educate, enlighten, and provide healing choices through interviews with grief and trauma specialists, healers, mediums, and people who have inspiring stories of healing, transformation, and rebirth to share.
