Beyond The Edge Of Life

Emily Johnson

There are moments in life when something deeper calls — a knowing you can’t explain, but can’t ignore. Beyond The Edge of Life is a space to honor that signal and learn how to live from it. Hosted by Emily Johnson — spiritual teacher, intuitive channel, and former critical care nurse — this podcast bridges two worlds: the grounded realities of being human and the quiet wisdom of the unseen. Each Thursday, you’ll receive a solo teaching, a channeled message, or a grounded conversation with another spiritual voice — all designed to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and remember who you truly are. Emily draws from lived experience, spiritual insight, and the liminal spaces she’s walked between life and death — offering clarity you can feel in both your body and your spirit. If you’re in a season of transition, awakening, or subtle inner change, this space will help you hear your own guidance, trust yourself, and step into the life that’s been calling you forward.

    Asking for Signs: How to Connect with Your Spirit Support Team

    Asking for Signs: How to Connect with Your Spirit Support TeamIn this lesson from Beyond The Edge of Life, we explore how spirits communicate from beyond and the power of asking for signs to connect with your spirit support team. By understanding that our loved ones and pets are still with us, we can move from the "fog of grief" into a space of active, comforting co-creation with the unseen world. In this moving conversation, Emily is joined by her podcast manager, Michelle, who shares a vulnerable and miraculous story that spans over 25 years. After the recent loss of her dog, Tuukka, Michelle decided to put Emily's previous lessons to the test. She shares how a childhood memory of her father—connected to the lyrics of a Rod Stewart song and the image of where the ocean meets the sky—culminated in a profound, physical sign: a bright yellow tennis ball. This episode covers: The "Here and Everywhere" Realization: How a seven-year-old's perspective helps us understand that the spirit world isn't a distant place, but a dimension we are constantly "swimming in."Building Your Spirit Support Team: Emily explains how "veteran" spirits (like a father who passed years ago) often assist newer spirits (like a recently passed pet) in learning how to project signs into our physical reality.The Body as Technology: Why your physical vessel is the ultimate receiver for intuition and how to clear the "interference" caused by acute grief and stress.Moving Past "Coincidence": Why we are conditioned to dismiss synchronicities and how to reclaim the courage to believe in what we cannot prove.Vulnerability as Healing: The importance of sharing our "rattling" spiritual experiences with safe people to help transmute pain into power. Whether you are navigating the recent loss of a pet or seeking a deeper connection with a long-lost loved one, this episode provides the "hot damn" moments that remind us we are more than just these physical bodies. It is a call to slow down, clear your vessel, and simply ask for the help that is already waiting for you.

    Pelvic Floor and Your Spiritual Foundation: Releasing Trauma and Shame

    In this lesson from beyond the edge of life, Emily Johnson sits down with pelvic floor physical therapist Lynne DiPirro to dive into the often-overlooked "basement" of the spirit body. Emily opens the conversation by reflecting on her own history of birth trauma and the clinical disconnect she experienced in early recovery, setting the stage for a deeper look at holistic pelvic floor health. The episode explores the reality that pelvic floor work is for every human body, moving beyond simple exercises to address posture, the abdominal wall, and daily lifestyle. As a specialist in trauma-informed wellness, Lynn explains how the pelvis acts as the body's physical and energetic anchor. This leads to the essential exploration of: Why the feeling of physical and emotional "safety" is a prerequisite for successful pelvic floor rehabilitation? Emily and Lynn bridge the gap between medicine and metaphysics by connecting the pelvic bowl to the root chakra, the energy center governing safety and survival. They discuss how societal conditioning and somatic healing for sexual shame are required to address the ways women have been taught to disconnect from this primal area. By excavating these stored stories, listeners are shown how to transmute "guarding" and chronic tension into a capacity for deep relaxation. The dialogue concludes with a bold exploration of nervous system relaxation and pleasure. Through a candid story of reclaiming bodily autonomy, Emily illustrates how an unlocked pelvic floor allows energy to flow freely from the root to the crown. Finally, they address the limitations of the traditional medical model and insurance, advocating for a whole-body approach that treats the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual self as one interconnected kinetic chain.
