Carolyn Clapper Answers Afterlife FAQs (Part 2, E5)
<p>The other side, #heaven, the next world, "upstairs," the afterlife, or the afterparty — what is it really like? </p><p>Carolyn has been reading for individual clients (and groups) since 2011, and one of the reasons we started Fate Check Podcast is because a lot of the cool, interesting details she sees occur in a private reading. </p><p>In part 2, we get into whether we see all of our pets again, time and the afterlife, and get into #debunkingmyths that keep people up at night, like whether they have to leave Earth for good after #40days. Did we miss anything? Please drop a comment and let us know what topics you're interested in for future episodes — and we'd love if you'd like, subscribe, or give us feedback. Thank you so, so much for tuning in. — CC & KLT </p><p>00:00 Carolyn Clapper answers afterlife FAQs (intro and recap) 01:32 Do animals and our pets go to heaven?

(AKA Christopher Moltisanti got a raw deal on The Sopranos! — KLT) 31:34 Why dead people still have work to do in the afterlife 33:07 "40 Days": Do spirits really have to stop visiting Earth permanently after 40 days? 34:33 Is it true intense grief blocks spirit communication? Why do spirits want to visit us if the afterlife is so great? Does crying or grieving push them away? 37:21 Debunking afterlife myths and why it matters 38:29 Does time exist in the afterlife? How does time work in heaven? 41:55 Is there a "waiting period" before mediums can contact your loved one? Is there a waiting period before loved ones can talk to mediums? Do you have to wait 6 months or a year? (No!) 42:34 Do spirits forget us or lose interest in us after a year? A decade? 50 years? 44:19 Can you really continue a relationship with dead people?

Is there a beacon? Do they use Google? 01:03:56 WTF are "exit points"? 01:04:05 Is it true we all have pre-arranged exit points?
