When you wake up every morning, you get to decide who you want to be. That's why the idea of setting New Year's Resolutions can actually limit your potential for growth in a new year. Reflection and goal setting just once a year? You're so much more than that! You're an ever-evolving human navigating earth school full of passion, purpose, mystery, and a mission. This limitless expansion is something to contemplate as often as you feel the call, not just once a year. What if you took inventory and decided on a theme for the year instead? One that allows for fluidity and compassion as life ebbs and flows?

Join us today as we discuss how to make lasting change and how that journey begins within. From frequent meditative check-ins to assessing how you'll know when a goal becomes second nature, we've got you covered as you contemplate who you are and why you do what you do. We'll also discuss the Numerology of 2024 and teach you how to identify your personal number for the year. Resources, stability, and reputation abound. How will you use this information to create a vision custom-tailored for you and your journey?

Because Earth School is hard. Don't let the person you are get in the way of the person you intend to be—with Divine love and encouragement from the Other Side.

On January 20th, Pluto entered Aquarius, inspiring us to ask: will you accept this invitation to truly be yourself?

Today, Brenda talks about all things Pluto and what the change of the Astrological House means for you. As the planet of death and rebirth, Pluto desires to get to the truth and essence of all things. So, what would be real for you if you lived and moved through the world in an absolutely authentic way?

We'll reflect back to 2008 and follow the energy of Pluto as it weaved and dipped its way from Capricorn to its new Aquarian home. Whether you think of it as a planet or super asteroid, one thing is clear: the more you work with the Plutonian energy by digging deep, the more centered you'll be. 
Because Earth School is hard, so you might as well play with Pluto, and the Other Side.

The creative process is not linear; the ideas that flow in and through you are unconfined, coming straight from instinct and the Other Side. The question is: What do you do with them when they arrive?

As difficult as it can be, the answer is to trust yourself and the process. Mentors, muses, and of course your Spirit Guides are all here to assist you when you navigate the creative and innovative path. There is a delicate dance between creativity and faith, and it's a dance you can only learn when you willingly step on the dance floor.

Today we discuss the myriad of ways creativity and innovation take form. You'll see how taking the leap of faith is The Fool card in action and learn how to trust it. Because Earth School is hard, but there are no failures... only steps on the path. The revelations you seek are found nestled between risk and reward, lovingly designed just for you by the Other Side.

What role do you have in your happiness? It can be challenging to accept that you have to be part of the problem if you're going to be part of the solution, especially concerning your professional life.

Today, we travel back in time to when Brenda was hired to be Julie's business coach. It was a time of multiple leadership changes, where Julie had to accept that vulnerability is the key to all problematic situations. Sharing advice that applies to each of us today just as it did with Julie many moons ago, you'll learn timeless tools to guide you through times of change and conflict.

Because Earth School is hard, and we bond through our common imperfections, held by the Other Side Spirit Connections.

Have you ever wondered if your daughter was once your mother? Or if your grandfather reincarnated into your son? Sometimes, when connections feel even thicker than blood, we must ask: Is reincarnating into the same bloodline from a past life possible?

And that's precisely what one of our listeners was pondering. Inspired by her question, today we dive into the difference between soul lines, blood lines, and how, yes... they can most definitely merge. Your family tree goes beyond names and dates. Its branches hold karma, purpose, and possibilities only the Other Side can see. Brenda discusses how reincarnated familial souls appear in her readings and how many already had a 'feeling' this was happening (hello, Other Side whispers!); for others, it takes an extra level of observation and sensory awareness to put together the puzzle of past-life truth, as exhibited by Cathy Boyd's book, The Boy Who Knew Too Much—a fascinating read of a toddler who reincarnated as Lou Gehring.

Like Russian Nesting dolls from The Great Beyond, souls are layered and stacked in order to carry out a lesson or purpose left undone. So join us today as we dissect the DNA of reincarnation. Because Earth School is hard without the strands that bind us all together.

Welcome to our first episode of the New Year! Today we kick off 2024 with a series of existential questions certain to make your mind spin.

❓ What's the difference between infinite beings and old souls?

💫 Does a soul have a beginning?

🍷 Does it hover and chill til it's ready to re-emerge like a fine wine or perfect cheese?

Which of course leads one to wonder... IS there a beginning and an end? ♾️

The exploration of these great big questions leads to a conversation about the soul's journey, the myth of 'time', and the reality of a multiverse. Soul expansion and expression is our task here on Earth School, where the objective is to learn and channel our Divine Self. Put THAT on your New Year's Resolution list 😉

Because Earth School is hard, but your soul is limitless when you learn to follow its lead, guided and fully supported by the Other Side.

As the new year approaches, we're bringing you one of our favorite episodes from 2023:

Sun Signs—or as Brenda Rose likes to call them, "the gateway drug of astrology"—are the most popular and well-known astrological placement in one's birth chart. Your Sun Sign helps you better understand your gifts, blindspots, challenges, and opportunities during this lifetime. 

Today, Brenda Rose breaks down the Sun Signs into their elements—fire, water, earth, and air, bringing a fresh outlook to each sign from ignition (Aries) to landing (Capricorn). You'll discover why this knowledge is beneficial: increasing self-awareness, setting you up for success, and identifying your place and purpose in this cosmic wheel. By understanding the Sun signs—their motivations and mantras—you'll gain the ability to view the world with each zodiac sign's perspective, bringing connections and clarity.

Because Earth School is hard without the willingness to understand ourselves and each other better.

How's your relationship with sugar? After a listener wrote in to describe her sugar craving as an addiction, Julie and Brenda decided it was a good idea to chew on this subject a bit longer...

Sugar is everywhere, and it is quite addictive. Today, we discuss what happens to the brain when you eat it, how it can feel when you decide to limit it or quit, and ways you can interrupt your eating patterns to be present with what your body actually craves.

Attempting to halt your sugar rush (or any form of over-consumption) is an opportunity to complete an Earth School lesson, which keeps it from lingering into the next life and beyond. So tune in today to learn how to plan, prepare, and take responsibility for your habits and lifestyle goals.

Because Earth School is hard, and temptation is everywhere, but empowering choices and greater self-awareness are attainable, courtesy of the Other Side.

Think of all the ways you prepare for the holidays: gifts, meal planning, travel... but do you remember to do the mental, emotional and spiritual prep it takes to survive with your vibe high? Today we'll discuss how you can stay sane and set intentions to keep your frequency on point. 

You already know your life is so much bigger than one evening with family or one dinner that spoils your appetite before it even begins. But this can be difficult to remember when your nervous system is on the verge. So join our conversation and learn how to set yourself up for spiritual success this holiday season. Let's put love into action, give without expectations, manage energy fields, and slay the holidays together. 

Because Earth School is hard if you don't weave in giggles and Other Side lightness whenever you can. 

And PS: Holiday words of advice from your Elf: avoid saying "pass the taters, I'm gay..."

After noticing a pattern of people close to her jumping the planet during the winter months, our Elf Julie asks: Anyone else going through this Season of Death?

Winter is a time of stillness, depth, and breakups. So if you stop and consider that Scorpio, which carries the energy of Transformation, kicks off the season, it makes sense that more energy than usual chooses to transmute during this time.

Mirroring Julie's observation, a listener writes in, asking why she's recently experienced a season of multiple loved ones jumping. When we stop and tune in to the natural world and the harmony of it all, even when events bring us sadness, their symbolism resonates.

Today, we discuss what we can learn from those who pass and when they pass, plus how to handle our emotions during the different seasons of our life... because Earth School is hard without the Other Side's divine calendar.
