Episode 144 - Miracle Collectors Part 1

In this episode, Rev. Carol engages with Katie Mahon and Joan Luise Hill on the topic of miracles. Both these extraordinary women experienced profound miracles in their lives, which set them in pursuit of the miracle stories of other people. This collection is featured in their recent book, The Miracle Collectors - Uncovering Stories of Wonder, Joy and Mystery. In Part 1 of this conversation, Joan and Katie share their own miracle stories -- Katie escaped serial killer Ted Bundy and Joan had a profound synchronistic experience around the healing of her son. We also discuss how to become aware of the everyday miracles in our lives.

********************************************************************************************************

Katie Mahon became a miracle expert the hard way. At nineteen, she walked away from serial killer Ted Bundy with the help of a stranger who appeared, seemingly, out of nowhere. Mahon has a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from Santa Clara University and spent nearly twenty years in banking before staying home with her two daughters. A transplant from the San Francisco Bay Area, Mahon now lives in New York City with her husband and enjoys chasing more than miracles with her three grandchildren.

Joan Luise Hill's introduction to miracles evolved as a series of coincidences that ultimately could not be ignored. After a thirty-year career in medical administration and advancing innovative medical solutions, her expertise was put to the test to save the life of her son. She has a master's degree from the University of Connecticut and a Bachelor of Science degree from Boston College. Having lived in a number of states and with three adult children and family spread across the country, Hill and her husband are avid (and constant) travelers.
