  • In the midst of a disastrous accident, Jeffery Olsen had an incredible near death experience which brought startling insights and healing and ultimately changed his life.
    Despite being severely injured himself and losing his beloved wife and son, Jeffery has found a way to use his experiences of life-changing tragedy to help others.
    Having integrated these experiences into everyday life, Jeffery continues to work with and inspire others to embrace the beauty around them and choose joy in all they do.
    Jeffery documented his experiences of an NDE and his out-of-body insights in his book, KNOWING. His latest book, WHERE ARE YOU? is a collaboration with his oldest son, Spencer, who at the age of seven, also survived the accident. Father and son have captured in a simple and powerful way their healing journey through the innocent perspective of that seven year old child. “Where Are You?” is a heartfelt book for all ages and perfect for anybody who misses someone.
    Among Jeff’s many accomplishments, he is most fulfilled by simply being a husband, father and friend.

    I have felt such guilt since my son’s passing that “my free will” did not do enough for my son. Listening to Jeffrey helps me so much in not continuing to beat myself up. His strength, willingness to forgive himself, his ability to continue in this life and his love for the Divine (and the divine in all of us) is so very healing. I’ve heard him many times but it’s as if God is working for each of us thru Jeff and his story. I am in awe of Jeffery and his willingness to share his losses, his pain, and his love for all of us. Thank you Suzanne and Jeffrey🤍🙏🏽.

    This show should have come with a warning not to listen to in public because you're going to cry. Touching heartbreaking story. Thank you for sharing ❤

    It was Jeff's story that blew my mind open to NDE experiences. His was the 1st I watched on CZcams many years ago. I continue to be inspired by him. Thanks Suzanne for having him on your channel and thanks to both of you for bringing wisdom and light to the world ❤

    I so appreciate Jeffrey's example - to show us what healing from profound grief can look like. Decades later, even after his spiritual experiences, he still feels all the impact and the loss - but he can see beauty again. Thanks so much for sharing.

    Jeffrey, thank you for sharing your story. The courage is so inspiring. I worked as a Hospice nurse for many years and as people were transitioning they would often be disappointed when they were in the spirit realm , free of pain, and woke up still in their body. We are greeted in love and light. Your story exemplifies this. My heart sends you love. My nephew was killed in a motorcycle accident last year, leaving two children behind. My SIL who has a young child has stage 4 cancer. I am so hoping to find an evidential medium to provide some comfort, some answers. Thank you. This is a gut wrenching, beautiful story. Thank you 🙏

    Wow this was very touching. I feel his sadness and happiness. My beloved wife of 21 years crossed over 6 years ago which feels like yesterday. With two young adults by my side I must move on. I ❤ my wife dearly and communicate with her daily. Now 56 and still in good health, I did ask her for her continuous guidance life in general even connecting with a young lady who I desire. What I desire desires me. There is so much love for all to share. No fear.

    2 absolute beauties right here! I saw Jefferys face and was just telling my wife his story and of course like everyone the words that easily flowed were omg this poor man. But no, Jeffery explained his ordeal and provided such knowledge and love that like u Suzanne has inspired so many of us and allowed us to understand the proper way, not the way the world has conditioned us to see it. Heck i have a hard time with anyone uttering the words “rest in peace” can’t do it lol. Thank you beautiful souls so much for this and look forward to hearing it all! ❤

    I’ve seen him speak before, and I kept his video because it was so moving and beautiful!
    He remembers the little things in the car, that I’m sure he’s gone through so many times. What a wonderful man who takes responsibility for everything, though he doesn’t have to. The way he tells a story is like he was born to do this. I’m sure he was. Thank you for having him on❣️🙏🩷💫😇
    I’m updating because he mentioned his son, Spencer, a compassionate man who has helped other people through their own struggles, and I’m sure he has the exact answer! He’s here to help other people and demonstrate love and dedication to his family in a different way than his father. I’m happy he’s well-rounded and is expecting a baby of his own. I can’t imagine my granddaughter losing her mother! What a wonderful family! 🩷🙏💫
    He doesn’t share that he remarried and his first wife picked her out to be a mother to her son and a partner to him. 🩷

    Just 14 minutes in and I can't stop crying. I feel guilty about my 25 year old daughter's suicide in April 2023. I wish I could have those last few moments with her back so she could tell me what was bothering her so much. She had everything. A great job, a new house she was moving in to the day she was found . I got the call at 11:11 am and it haunts me . I feel awful I wasn't there. I have no way of knowing why because her cell and laptop are PIN-locked. I don't have closure. I need to heal.
