If you had been offered a medically assisted death at your lowest point — would you have taken it?
We would have. Without hesitation.
In this episode of Soul School, Jessica and Nikki get brutally honest about their darkest moments — the kind of pain that makes you want to permanently exit a temporary situation. We talk about what MAID actually is, how Canada became one of the leading countries in assisted dying, and why the eligibility criteria sounds a lot like every addict and alcoholic we’ve ever known.
We also talk about what saved us. Not medication. Not a doctor. Not a government program.
A psychic change. A spiritual awakening. A reason to live.
Nikki shares the heartbreaking story of losing her grandfather to suicide after a lifetime of alcoholism and antidepressants. Jessica shares how she walked away from a pharmacy prescription list that would shock you — without even trying — after finding God.
This is the conversation the medical system is not having. The spiritual solution exists. It works. And it’s available to everyone.
If you are in the darkness right now — please listen to this episode before you make any permanent decisions. This too shall pass.
Soul School. No religion. No labels. No judgment. Just the truth.
Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) has become one of the most debated topics in Canada.
In this episode, we have a raw conversation about MAID, suicide, recovery, addiction, and the spiritual transformation that can happen when someone chooses life instead of despair.
Many people struggling with addiction, depression, or emotional pain have moments where they believe the only escape is death. But recovery communities often talk about something different: a psychic change — a transformation in thinking and belief that creates hope where there once was none.
We talk about:
• MAID and the growing debate in Canada
• why people can feel suicidal during addiction and mental health crises
• the difference between temporary pain and permanent decisions
• how recovery programs and spiritual growth can change someone's outlook
• why purpose and helping others can transform a life
This episode is an honest, sometimes emotional conversation about suffering, hope, and the idea that sometimes the darkest moment of someone's life can eventually become the thing that allows them to help others.
If you or someone you know has struggled with suicidal thoughts, addiction, or hopelessness, this conversation may resonate with you.
