Sometimes when near-death experiencers express reluctance to return to the life they had just left, they are told that they had chosen the circumstances of that life themselves. When they continue to say "that's impossible" some claim to have been shown the equivalent of a video clip of a meeting where they agreed to their life plan. Betty Guadagno had a spiritually transformative experience in March 2019. She was shown that she had chosen the experience of being an orphan after both her parents suicided, being a drug addicted sex worker, and an atheist.
