Missing Link: Intuitives, Missing Persons & Families Searching for Answers
In this episode, I sit down with Tara Winter, founder of Missing Link, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting families impacted by missing-person cases and connecting them with valuable resources during an incredibly difficult and uncertain time. We explore Missing Link’s unique approach to the search process, including the incorporation of intuitives, psychics, and mediums as an additional perspective alongside traditional investigative efforts and law enforcement. Tara shares the mission behind Missing Link, the importance of supporting families throughout the search, and how bringing together different perspectives may offer another avenue of insight when families are searching for answers. This conversation explores compassion, collaboration, intuition, and the importance of keeping the families and missing individuals at the heart of every search.
