In 1985, my guest's husband left for work and never came home. Ten days later, she identified his body parts in a Detroit morgue. She also discovered he'd been living a secret double life. Dr. Jan Canty is a psychologist who spent 30 years in silence—until a podcast for homicide survivors brought her back. The night he went missing, Jan looked in a mirror and heard herself say, "He's dead. He's not coming home." She buried that moment for decades. Today, she helps others heal through after-death communication and community. This episode aired on July 20th—the exact day Jan learned her husband had been murdered. That synchronicity is not lost on me.
