April 11, 2022 Heather Kesslak, From Addiction to Freedom
In this episode, I talk to Heather about her life journey that includes years of addiction, facing a past of sexual abuse, and learning to face and work through those trials. In her words: “My name is Heather Kesslak. I am a survivor of childhood mental, physical, and sexual abuse. In the year 2020, I had an epic breakdown. Covid struck, my daughter was in 1st grade, I was in the middle of an experimental dry month, and I had NO idea that my next 2 years would be absolutely life changing. I lived my ENTIRE life in addiction. It started with food. It moved into cigarettes, alcohol, shopping, exercise, diet...I’m sure I’m forgetting something. ANYTHING I tried; I became addicted to. It’s why I never tried hard drugs. If I had, you wouldn’t be reading this. In February 2020, with little acceptance or awareness that Covid was coming HERE, I planned an experimental dry month. I didn’t admit that I was an alcoholic. I would just say I was doing it to get healthier. Oddly, I was also in an experimental stage of really looking at my emotional eating (it was straight up addictive eating, but that’s beside the point). March 13 was the Covid bomb. I did NOT start drinking again. Instead, in my state of absolute terror, I panicked. Literally. I had my first panic attack (I would have 5-6 over the course of the year) while I was bathing my daughter. For the first time in my life, I wasn’t stuffing my trauma with addictions. I wasn’t emotionally eating because I was too terrified to breathe, let alone eat. I wasn’t getting my normal suppression from my addictions, so guess what... They came to the surface. And with a terrifying VENGEANCE. I remembered my childhood sexual abuse for the first time in 46 years. I suppressed it my entire life with addictions. I had no idea, except for the ONE event that I knew about and pretended my whole life didn’t happen. Over the course of these 2 years, I have sought coaching and spiritual education that has assisted me in EVERY quantum leap that I have achieved. And I’ve achieved a lot of them. Prior to 2020, I didn’t believe in anything. I was too clouded in my addictions to SEE or really understand the need for spirituality in my life. I was raised Catholic, and like most indoctrinated souls, I leaned FAR out of it once I had the freedom to do so. I didn’t believe in anything. I just floated through life. I had no connection to my guides, my guardian angels, my soul team, God, Jesus, or anything that resembled spirituality. I was angry, I was scared, I was lonely, I was insecure, I was self-loathing, I was self-destructive and any other self-deprecating thing you can think of. If it included hating myself, treating myself badly, abusing myself, or sabotaging my success...you better believe I took part in all of it. I kept people in my life who mirrored the disdain I had for myself. They didn’t like themselves either. It’s why I kept them around. I needed to feed my story, and so... there they stayed. Until I cleared them out of my life. And I did... swiftly, with intention and purpose and no regrets. Until I reached far back to that original soul that lied inside me all this time, I would never heal and I knew it. So I made HUGE changes. Now I care for the beautiful child who exists within me. She knows how much she is loved. She is supported. She is guided. She is free.”

April 01, 2022 Evelyn Sevilla Interview Part 1, Astrologist & Psychic Medium Spreading the Word of Love
In this episode, Evelyn talks about demystifying the Tarot and Astrology, along with the importance of finding that balance between feminine and masculine energy. Her intuition and connection to spirit began at a very young age. Her first memory was of an Easter procession in the Bronx under the age of 2. At her baptism, the priest stated that she would devote her life to the church. At age 5, she fell from a two-story building with no physical injuries to speak of. At 10, she was sheltered from a shooting occurring right outside her door. At 7 months pregnant, she was in a car accident that totaled the car. A kind woman came up to the car right after and told her, “Your baby is fine.” When Evelyn looked up, the woman was gone. She asked someone at the scene, “Where did she go?” He answered, “Who? There isn’t a woman here.” So many other inexplicable instances have happened. Even though things were far from easy, Evelyn had a knowing and great faith. She now knows it was her intuition and willingness to be open. After struggling with PTSD, ADHD, peri-menopause, insomnia, and severe anxiety, she was at her wit’s end. On June 12, 2019, she went to see an acupuncturist. One of the many professionals she saw during that time. She remembers hearing the words “MEDITATE MORE” come out of the acupuncturist’s mouth. It sounded like an amplified and booming voice from above. She was often receiving signs but needed to be bopped in the head with a mystical 2x4 to receive this message, because the fairy wand just wasn’t cutting it. Needless to say, this time, she got the message. The next day, she woke up before the crack of dawn, had a sip of coffee, walked her dogs, and meditated. It has become a daily practice and something she can’t live without. She credits meditation for helping her to continuously make it through the pandemic, and for helping her unlock her intuition in ways she couldn’t have imagined. It has opened up her world and given her a new perspective on this journey we call life. Evelyn shares that we all have the ability to connect with our intuition. She wants to help others find the magic and healing found in connecting with the Divine. There are so many ways to connect- through meditation, dance, writing, listening to music and best of all - just being mindful and present. There is magic all around us. We just need to learn to believe again. After so many “saves”, she knows that she’s here to share the message of love. She has broken the chains of fear, anxiety, judgment, and shame placed on her by circumstances and society. She wants to help others discover the magic they hold deep within. She’s on a mission, and there is no stopping her now.

March 26, 2022 How Spirit and Intuition Helped My Paralyzed Dog Walk Again
Our black labrador Cody developed a sudden paralysis of his hind legs. With surgery not being an option, the ER vet gave him a 5% chance of walking again. Despite the dire news, spirit and my intuition gave me hope and an inexplicable knowing that he/we were going to be ok and not to give up on him yet. Thank goodness for that, because one week later, he started walking again.
