Overview

• On Jay Shetty’s On Purpose, she says she was on a ventilator and unconscious for four days after a June 2023 bacterial infection doctors identified as sepsis.
• While unconscious, she says she told her mother’s spirit “No,” a word her assistant heard in the ICU.
• Upon waking, she interpreted the moment as a directive to let go of longstanding grudges and pursue reconciliation.
• She credits her Kabbalah practice and teacher Eitan Yardeni’s guidance on “radical acceptance” with helping her through a slow recovery.
• The experience led her to reconnect with Christopher Ciccone before he died in October 2024 at 63, and it inspired unreleased songs titled Fragile and Forgive Yourself.
