Episode Description
What happens when someone survives the impossible and comes back with a new mission?
In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier sits down with Dr. Holly Porter, a transformational leader, 17-time best-selling author, founder of multiple companies, and near-death experience survivor.
After contracting COVID-19 in 2021, Holly spent 70 days in the hospital, was placed on a ventilator twice, received a trachea, battled sepsis and other infections, and faced moments where her survival was deeply uncertain. During that time, she says she experienced multiple out-of-body experiences, a powerful near-death experience, and a spiritual encounter that changed the direction of her life.
Holly shares what she remembers from what she calls the “stadium of light,” the music, the life review, the message she received, and the moment she felt called to start the Adventure Bucket Wish Foundation. She also talks about the long and painful healing process after leaving the hospital, including what she describes as two years of emotional, spiritual, and physical recovery.
Stephanie and Holly explore faith, prayer, Grief, purpose, spiritual transformation, obedience, surrender, and the question so many people ask after a life-altering event: “Why am I still here?”
Holly also shares the message behind her book, Near Death Shift: What Dying Taught Me About Life, Business and Purpose, and her SHIFT framework: surrender, hope, intuition, faith, and transformation.
This episode is emotional, spiritual, and deeply human. It is a conversation about surviving, listening, healing, and learning how to live with greater purpose after everything changes.
This episode includes discussion of COVID-19, hospitalization, ventilator care, near-death experiences, spiritual experiences, grief, and recovery. It is meant to inform, encourage, and inspire reflection, not replace medical, psychological, spiritual, or Mental Health support.
