Arrivals & Departures chronicles a remarkable journey from a near-death birth in 1951 to a life guided by intuition and mystical forces. When author E. F. Stoddart's mother died during childbirth, she experienced a near-death encounter with angels who offered her passage to the other side. Choosing love over peace, she returned, and in that liminal space, telepathically warned her husband thousands of miles away in Korea to avoid a landmine that killed others just moments later.

This profound beginning set the tone for Stoddart's nomadic military childhood and unconventional life path. Raised to trust invisible guidance, he navigated international moves, spiritual communities, and a pioneering career in computer systems across Canada, the United States, and Australia. Along the way, he explored consciousness, healing practices, and the intersection of technology and mysticism.

More than a memoir of achievement, this is an invitation to recognize the invisible intelligence shaping our lives. Through vivid storytelling and hard-won wisdom, Stoddart demonstrates that when we listen to intuition and follow our deepest calling, coincidences reveal themselves as purposeful guidance, and ordinary lives become extraordinary adventures in consciousness.
