What if the person you loved—and lost—is still finding ways to communicate with you?
What if you suddenly smell their unmistakable perfume, cigarette smoke, favorite food, or another familiar scent when there is no obvious source?
And what if that mysterious experience is not something to fear, but a reminder that love, connection, and relationships may continue after death?
In this fascinating and deeply personal episode, I talk with Angie Hawkins, an inner glow coach, adventurer, author, and woman who has built a life around courage, confidence, healing, and saying yes to experiences that challenge her.
Communicating With a Loved One After Death
One of the most beautiful parts of Angie's story is that she and her father had not been close while he was alive.
Their relationship had been complicated. Angie describes growing up with a father who struggled with alcoholism and depression, and their relationship never became what she had hoped it would be.
They weren't even speaking much during the years before his death.
Yet after his death, Angie began writing him letters every day.
Over time, she came to experience her father not simply as someone she had lost, but as a presence who could still be part of her life.
She describes him as a protector—and even as a best friend.
That creates an extraordinary question:
Can relationships be healed after someone dies?
For Angie, the answer has become yes.
Can You Heal a Relationship After Death?
Angie's story isn't simply about paranormal experiences or communication with spirits.
It's also about second chances.
A friend once suggested something Angie had never considered: perhaps her father's presence after death wasn't only healing for her. Perhaps it offered him an opportunity to show up as the father he had not been able to be during his physical life.
That idea completely changed the way Angie viewed their relationship.
Angie Hawkins and the Medium Who Knew About the Sweater
Eventually, Angie experienced her father's presence often enough that she decided to visit a medium.
Interestingly, Angie says she didn't really believe in mediums at the time.
She was embarrassed and worried that people would think she was crazy.
But during the reading, the medium said several things that immediately caught Angie's attention. To hear what those "things" were that were said, well, you'll just have to listen to the episode!
What Happens After Someone Dies?
This episode doesn't attempt to give a definitive answer to one of humanity's oldest mysteries:
What happens after death?
Instead, Angie shares the experiences that caused her own beliefs to change.
Her story invites us to consider questions like:
- Can deceased loved ones send signs?
- Can you communicate with someone after they die?
- What does it mean when you smell a dead loved one's scent?
- Can spirits communicate through familiar smells?
- Can you hear someone who has died?
- Are signs from deceased loved ones real?
- Can grief create experiences that feel supernatural?
- Can a relationship continue after death?
- Can we heal relationships with deceased family members?
- What are common signs from loved ones who have passed away?
- Why do people experience signs after someone dies?
- Can a deceased parent still be present in your life?
- What does mediumship say about communication with the dead?
- Why do people smell cigarette smoke after a loved one dies?
- Can a loved one visit you after death?
- Is death really the end of a relationship?
These are questions without easy answers—and that's exactly why they are so fascinating.
What Angie Hawkins Can Teach Us About Courage
One of my favorite messages from this conversation is simple:
You may be much braver than you think you are.
Sometimes we look at one frightening thing in front of us and assume we're not capable of doing it.
Then we remember everything we've already survived. And Angie is the real deal, a powerful reminder that saying "yes" can change your reality, and your world!
