Healing Houses with Sheldon Norberg 18.01.2024 1:02:53
"...He bought his mother’s house after she died. He felt really connected with her; he moved into her bedroom where she had died in bed, and he felt like he could sit on the edge of the bed and communicate with her. And if he went to the graveyard, it was a cold useless experience, and I said, ‘Yeah, because that’s where that person lived; that’s where your connection was.’ Nobody sits around thin...

How to Come Out of the Psychic Closet, with Emma Andrews 28.09.2023 1:00:36
"When you're present in your body, you build trust . If you work on being present - if that's your number one priority - what that looks like is not holding back our needs, providing for ourselves what we need in the moment, showing up for ourselves in a consistent way, that builds trust. It shows ourselves that 'I'm here, honey. I'm here, and I love you. And when we feel safe, then we can begin t...
The Pyramid of Inspired Living, with Aaron Wexler 21.09.2023 57:30
"I wanna say this about self-doubt, because self-doubt allowed me not to share my music for over a decade. Self-doubt is actually a tool. Self-doubt is a tool to create more confidence for yourself. It's kind of like...when you talk about light and darkness, you actually need darkness to help you find light." Aaron Wexler holds a lot of titles, but perhaps his most prominent is "Inspired." In this...
When Shamanism Calls (Hint: It Ain't Pretty), with Kelle Sparta 14.09.2023 58:53
"That's the language of Spirit. Spirit speaks in symbols. Sometimes they'll speak in words, but the richer conversation; you really need to learn how to develop that vocabulary with your guides, because that gives you deep, deep layers of meaning, that if you insist on having a verbal conversation, you're going to miss out on a lot of the conversation." The Spirit Sherpa, Kelle Sparta, is here to...

Do You Have a Pink Starlight Spirit Baby? with Lynsi Eastburn 31.08.2023 1:08:23
"So the Pink Starlights, they are an incredible level of love; high frequency love. They chose the pink, because it represents unconditional love, and starlight, which is just brilliance, sparkles. It’s just incredible levels of light. So that’s where they got their name from. " Lynsi Eastburn, the creator of HypnoFertility, and the channeler of The Pink Starlight Spirit Babies is BACK to talk to...
Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 5 25.08.2023 45:55
"I think it's useful to know the general meanings of the major and the minor arcana when you are doing a tarot reading. You do not - by any stretch of the imagination - have to memorize every single card. I'm going to encourage you to maybe have a general understanding. Having a general idea of what they mean can really serve you well, but I really encourage you to tune into your intuition." This...
Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 4 17.08.2023 41:36

Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 3 10.08.2023 40:42
"Heads up, when I started doing spirit baby mediumship work, my mentor was really adamant about me getting in my body. And I wasn’t in my body a whole lot, because my trauma with fertility was such that I didn’t want to be in my body. The body does hold memory for trauma, and I really encourage you to do some trauma work before diving deep into clairsentience." This episode is Part 3 in the Spirit...
Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 2 03.08.2023 30:43
"You are attempting to connect with something beyond yourself. And when you shut off the thinking mind and that part of your brain that says, 'Am I making this up? Is this just my imagination?' When you're able to shut that part off, then you're able to readily receive information..." This episode is part 2 in the Spirit Baby Communication series. We are talking about how you can communicate with...
Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 1 27.07.2023 39:12
"When you are starting to do spirit baby communication, it’s really hard to communicate with your own babies, because there’s an emotional tie - intense emotion. And when there’s intense emotion, intuition is harder to access. Intuition isn’t emotional at all; it just feels like fact." We are talking about how you can communicate with the beautiful, loving spirit baby realm. Yeah! You can do what...

Energy and the Future of Medicine with Tabitha Patterson 13.07.2023 51:14
"The best way that I can explain it; we have an electromagnetic field around our body. And it goes through several layers, and any type of illness or disease or discomfort in the body starts off as dis-ease in that biofield." Tabitha Patterson is a practitioner of several types of energy medicine. I couldn’t wait to chat with her calm energy again to cover the basics of what energy medicine is, wh...
Star Wars Is Real? And Other StarSeed, Galactic fun, with Derek Loudermilk 07.07.2023 46:05
"I was really astounded to learn that not all humans originated on earth. So let’s group people that are alive right now as most of them are Earth native souls; they’ve only been Earth humans. And there’s a smaller group of Star Seeds that have had life times in many other star systems; mostly in this galaxy, but sometimes in other star systems." Star Seeds keep coming up in my readings for others...

Six Weeks to Reclaim Your Soul, with Shirin Etessam 15.06.2023 43:53
"People go from situation to situation whether it’s getting into a new relationship or a new job or a vacation or whatever, and striving for the award, the accolades, and all of that. And those are all great. But there also temporary. And there temporary, because no matter how much you try to fill in the missing link, it still doesn’t connect you to your inner self." Back to my therapy routes in t...
The Way of Miracles with Dr. Mark Mincolla 01.06.2023 43:34
"There's a poll that was taken recently: Eighty percent of Americans believe in miracles. I added that ninety percent don't think they can be the one that generates it. The objective is to take those people who believe in miracles and advance them into the realm of producers, generators. And you don't wanna just say, 'Mother Theresa: Great, Beautiful!' It's you! You came here to produce miracles....
Your Spirit Baby May Be A Galactic Starseed with Deanne Crewe 25.05.2023 1:05:28
"I also look at [spirit babies] as coming from a higher interdimensional place. As soon as I say 'galactic', people freak out, but it's really this world beyond our earth, and so I deal with a lot of spirit babies and most souls coming in are starseed energy." What a total delight to speak with a fellow spirit baby medium! I learned a TON of from Deanne in this episode and can't wait to have her b...
Think Astrology Has All the Answers? You Haven't Met Human Design with Megan Blust 18.05.2023 57:43
"It's crazy how much human design can tell you...The type of environment you thrive in, how you digest food, how you're meant to interact with others, how others are meant to interact with you, how you're meant to create, how you're meant to dive into things... It's an incredible tool, and it really just, it sees you." I was blown away when I had a Human Design reading, and I couldn't wait to cove...
From the Practical to the Magical: True Wellness with Tandy Gutierrez 11.05.2023 1:02:42
“I was at that place of witnessing that I hated being a coach in certain ways, because I’m not going to specialize in weight loss. You don’t need to be skinny to be fit. That is not a marker of your wellness or your fitness. That’s not going to make you joyful, happy, anchored, or a whole person.” Listen for some real talk with Tandy Gutierrez about true wellness “from the practical to the magical...
Surrender Is Scary (And It Works!) with Bailey Sutphin 27.04.2023 44:59
"Something came over me that said, 'You need to get help; it's time to recover.' And at this point everything from my spirit was still very much a whisper. It wasn't like it is now where it's like 'Okay this is The Knowing. Surrender a little bit more.'" I can't wait until you hear this amazing transformation story from Type A do-all-the-things to surrendering to the Universe's plan and riding the...

"From a quantum physical perspective...all time exists right now. So we are in potentially thousands of bodies, right this very moment..." Today's episode comes from an email I received from someone who wonders about her loved one reincarnating into her daughter who's on her way earthside. I chew on the below ideas for a bit: Is reincarnation a thing? Incarnating into multiple bodies at the same t...
