“It wasn’t the highlight wheel — it was the painful moments that turned out to be his greatest teachers.”
After a motorcycle accident left him in a coma for three weeks, Stephen Weber didn’t have just one near-death experience life review—he had several, each one raising his awareness a little further. In this episode, Steve, author of The Place Between Here and There: A True and Beautiful Near Death Experience, joins Johnny Burke to talk about what a life review actually feels like, why our hardest moments carry the deepest lessons, and what it means to be “incarnated with an ignorance” so we can genuinely learn.
In His Words:
“I reviewed my life… I had this increased awareness.” (approx. 12 min)
“It just kept on going… I’d review my life again.” (approx. 12 min)
“You’re really through mistakes is where you truly learn in the here and now.” (approx. 22 min)
“Life is good and people are good, even when very sad things happen.” (approx. 36 min)
What You’ll Learn:
What a near-death experience life review actually feels like from the inside
Why painful moments and mistakes matter more for growth than “highlight reel” memories
How incarnating with a kind of built-in “ignorance” is actually part of the soul’s learning design
For listeners searching for real accounts of near-death experience life reviews, Stephen Weber’s story offers a rare, deeply human look at what awareness and self-understanding look like from the other side.
