But just days after losing her father, she opened Laura Lynne Jackson’s Signs and saw a familiar name—Beitman’s—while sitting alone in Charlottesville, where she’d come to perform in Scalia/Ginsburg. She reached out, and what followed was a series of shared synchronicities that neither could ignore.In this heartfelt episode, Karli and Dr. Beitman reflect on the timing of her father's passing (February 27th), which happens to also be Beitman's birthday and the date of his own father's death. Their conversation explores grief, connection, and how moments of alignment can bring comfort when we need it most.Karli shares the powerful experience of walking beside a four-foot-long fish on the beach the day after her father's funeral—a moment that felt like a message from beyond. Together, they discuss what it means to trust the signs, to act on intuition, and to find healing through synchronicity.This episode is a celebration of shared humanity, the healing power of music, and the mysterious threads that connect us all.Karli Forte is a Coloratura Soprano based in New York City.
