The Void Project

What if our possessions are actually a distraction, covering up things we'd rather not see? And what happens when we let go of much of that stuff?The Void Project shares personal stories about real journeys of discovery. We talk with people who pared down. They share their experiences, the lessons they learned, and some of the wonders that resulted. Without glossing over the bumpy bits. Ten lives. Ten conversations. Ten people who did if for themselves or for others.

#TheVoidProject Bonus Edition: A good death w/Wenndi Freer

July 29, 2023 • Wenndi Freer • Season 1 • Episode 11

A special bonus edition

Must death be such a taboo topic in western culture? To the curious, the exploration of death can inspire a spirit of discovery and wonder. Instead of experiencing emptiness, there’s a possibility of feeling incomparable fullness. And, perceived from a certain angle, it can reveal something of a spiritual nature to those transitioning and those they leave behind.

About my guest

Wenndi Freer is never satisfied with the superficial; her curiosity compels her to search for what’s underneath or behind initial appearances. When she was growing up in Connecticut she lost friends and family to early death, which led her to a number of questions about, and inquiry into death and dying. That unfeigned exploration propelled her onto a deeply personal spiritual path.

As a space clearer, Wenndi leverages the energy of people’s homes and offices to remove internal obstacles, loosen personal limitations, and position her clients to expand into an experience of the life that they truly want to live.
