After being clinically DEAD for 11 minutes, Jana Stern returned to life with a mission: Help others honor their true essence and bring light to the world. That’s the story of Jana Stern — Jewish psychic, astrologer, and spiritual healer. In this unique episode of Being Jewish with Jonah Platt: 30 Minute Mensches, Jana opens up about her near-death experience, her lifelong connection to ancestral wisdom, and how Jewish identity and Kabbalah align with her work. She also gives Jonah a spiritual energy reading live on air!
Jana shares:
- Her 11 minutes “beyond the veil,” encountering ancestors and choosing to return to this world
- How hearing voices — once feared as schizophrenia — became the foundation of her spiritual gift
- The Jewish roots of astrology, Kabbalah, and metaphysics, and why she says this wisdom is “ours”
- How Shabbat, rituals, and Torah teachings are deeply tied to spiritual energy
- Why she believes there are no coincidences — only divine coordination and manifestation
- How trauma, tragedy, and loss can still be part of a higher purpose for growth and healing
From astrology charts and synchronicities to Shabbat candles and Jewish ancestry, Jana brings a unique lens on spirituality, Judaism, and healing in the modern world.
Listen now to explore how Jewish wisdom and mysticism can bring meaning and healing to modern life.
