When the Extraordinary Meets the Spiritual - Willa White and Whitley Strieber

Willa and her special guest Whitley Strieber, best-selling author and one of the most influential voices in the paranormal, discuss his extraordinary experiences with unknown entities, beginning with his famous 1985 encounter that led to the writing of "Communion." Whitley shares how his wife Anne supported him through these experiences, including her spiritual insights that helped frame the encounters in a positive light, and how after her passing in 2015, they continued to communicate through synchronistic white moth appearances. The conversation explores Whitley's latest book "Transformation 2026," which updates his earlier work with new insights about the neurological aspects of contact experiences and how these encounters serve as spiritual thresholds for human transformation. Whitley Strieber is the author of many bestsellers (fiction and non-fiction) and his own podcast Dreamland. He has spent a lifetime exploring fear and transformation, grief and joy, death and the understanding that the soul continues.
