In this episode, I conduct an interview with a courageous woman who confronts her illness through creativity, her families support, and her faith in God.

Amy Nicole Tangel is a journalist, author, playwright, and founder of The Human Interest Story. In 2017, she published the children’s book, Buster Backpack Adventure and in 2020, she released the memoir, Hello Sunshine A Caregiver’s Unexpected Journey of Love and Loss. Most recently Amy authored a new children’s book, An Apple a Day.

In this episode, John discusses with Amy her journey as a caregiver and the profound discoveries encountered along the way. She reflects on overcoming spirit-numbing grief and discovering light amidst the darkness.

One of Amy’s many charitable events is coming up on June 28th, 2025 in the NY area. Take a look to support this event and orgranization.

In this episode, join me on a soulful journey as we explore excerpts from Meister Eckhart’s Book of Secrets: Meditations on Letting Go and Finding True Freedom—a transformative book available on Amazon.

Curated with care by Jon M. Sweeney and Mark S. Burrows, these meditations touched my heart and stirred my spirit.

I invite you, fellow spiritual seekers, to delve into these timeless insights, embrace the art of letting go, and discover the profound freedom that lies within.
