"I know my sister's spirit lives on"

Published: Oct. 16, 2020, 3:50 a.m.

On this week’s episode, Karina Machado welcomes back an original interviewee from her book Spirit Sisters. My guest is Sharon Eckhardt, whose story about communicating with the spirit of her teenaged sister following her tragic death features in the chapter called Love After Death. It’s a story that, in a sense, is the beating heart of my work, because in its quiet, humble way, it shares the truth that our spirits are eternal. I think that many of you will be able to relate to the experiences Sharon shares. If you’d like to read Sharon’s story in my book, pick up a copy of the 10th anniversary of Spirit Sisters, published earlier this year, at your favourite book store, or there are links to the ebook and audio version in the show notes. Sharon is a mother of four who lives in Albury, NSW, where she works as a food and hospitality technician at a local high school. It was lovely to meet her face to face, via Zoom, for the first time. The shock of losing her younger sister scarred Sharon, but one thing brought her of peace: the knowledge that Mandy’s spirit lives on, as she’s about to tell us.
