CONVERSATIONS WORTH HAVING.
QUESTIONS WORTH SITTING WITH.
NLE: Near Life Experience is a podcast about the conversations that make us
reconsider what we think we know about being human.
Religion | Spirituality | Science | Death | Consciousness | Culture | Meaning | Joy
No preaching or pretending we have all the answers. Just real conversations, different perspectives, and a willingness to stay curious.
THE WORLD IS WEIRD, WILD & WONDERFUL...LET'S TALK ABOUT IT!
Somewhere along the way, we seem to have gotten really uncomfortable with not knowing. We want answers, labels, proof, and certainty. We want to know what’s true, what isn’t, who’s right, who’s wrong, and preferably which side we’re supposed to be on (which has become increasingly and ironically hard to do).
NLE IS A PLACE TO GET CURIOUS AGAIN
Each week, I’ll sit down with fascinating people from different backgrounds, beliefs, disciplines, and lived experiences to explore the big questions, the strange questions, and the questions we may never be able to answer.
We’ll talk about spirituality and science, faith and doubt, psychology and consciousness, death and what it can teach us about living. We'll dive into intuition, relationships, nature, meaning, joy, synchronicity, and all the weird stuff that happens sometimes that none of us can quite explain.
The goal isn’t to arrive at one definitive answer. It’s to become a little more comfortable living in the question, to listen without immediately deciding, and to wonder again. To challenge what we think we know. To reconnect with awe, mystery, faith, and the possibility that this whole human experience might be far more interesting than we’ve allowed it to become.
Come curious. You might leave with more questions than you came with, and I think that’s kind of the point.
HI, I'M YOUR HOST
JILLIAN ARENA
I'm a life coach, energy practitioner, death doula, writer, yoga teacher, lifelong question-asker, and someone who has become increasingly comfortable saying, "I have absolutely no freaking idea."
After more than a decade spent professionally exploring how humans think, change, struggle, heal, and make meaning, I've become far less interested in giving people answers and much more interested in asking better questions.
NLE is my excuse to sit down with fascinating people, explore ideas I don't fully understand, challenge some of my own assumptions, and hopefully leave every conversation seeing life a little differently.
I'M NOT HERE TO TELL YOU WHAT TO THINK. I'M HERE TO WONDER ABOUT IT WITH YOU.
COME ALONG FOR THE RIDE!
