Julie Hedenborg: Podcasting for God
What Researchers Found
The Story
Julie Heddenborg was a cardiovascular intensive care nurse and certified nurse anesthetist. On July 3, 2015, a chiropractic neck adjustment caused a traumatic injury, leading to bilateral vertebral artery dissections, an aneurysm, and mini-strokes. While preparing for a family outing amid symptoms like pain and dizziness, she felt an overwhelming supernatural rush from head to toe, urging her to go to the emergency room right away. This prompt led to a CT scan that revealed her condition, prompt ambulance transfer to ICU, and anticoagulant treatment, saving her life from potential stroke or death. After recovery, she retired from nursing due to disability, forgave the practitioner, and started the Everyday Miracles podcast to share spiritual testimonies, deepening her faith and giving her a new purpose in glorifying God.

Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
