November 03, 2020A Glimpse Into An Intuitive Reading With Pam
Have you ever been curious about what happens during an intuitive reading? If so, tune in as I do an intuitive reading for our guest Pam. This is the first reading I have done for the podcast and it was so much fun!

Special moments in this episode to tune in for:
Pam shares being a little nervous but was “intuitive curious” and really wanted to experience a reading. (1:30)
Victoria explains that this hesitation can be seen with therapy as well and that is her understanding that the guidance that comes through is what you are ready to hear. She reminds Pam it’s always important to tune in with yourself and see what resonates. (2:05)
Victoria tunes in and is feeling lots of internal changes and shifts right now for Pam. They dive into all the shifts going on in the world along with identity shifts people feel as they become empty nesters. (5:10)
Victoria explores a past life with Pam and explains how past lives can come up in a reading to help us understand something in this lifetime. (10:19)
The guides give us a beautiful message that we take on a variety of human experiences in different bodies for our learning and growth, and that most of us learn best through multiple perspectives. (22:21)
Victoria wraps up touching on intuition and Pam shares that she feels calm and enjoyed the session. (24:25)

October 27, 2020Re-Examining Our Belief Systems
You might have noticed that there are a lot of people talking these days, and sharing their strongly held beliefs, but not a whole lot of listening. That’s what happens when we get locked into our own belief systems so much that we cannot take a step back and recognize that different people have different perspectives.

In this episode, we explore the notion of belief systems and the ways in which our strongly held beliefs can make us go unconscious to anything beyond what reinforces our previously conceived notions of how things are and how they should be. We also discuss how our belief systems can block our inner wisdom, and greatly limit the way we understand and interact with each other and the world in general.

Episode highlights:
We explore how we become blind to alternative realities and viewpoints if we strongly identify with a core belief system. (2:07)
We discuss how people can get confused around letting go of beliefs because we have been taught to see things as right and wrong. When you are able to step back, you can tune into your true inner compass. (4:51)
There are a lot of issues in the world right now where different perspectives collide and can become very polarized. Together we explore a couple of examples. (5:53)
We look at how coming from a place of judgment and fear makes us lose touch with the idea that we are all connected. (9:40)
Our egos like belief systems and it may feel uncomfortable as we begin to look at where we may have some blindspots. Please remember to be kind to yourself. You will discover a new way of being when you transcend those beliefs. (11:15)
We discuss the steps to take to start looking at our unconscious beliefs allowing us to tune into our inner compass and navigate life with ease, joy, allowing, and magic. (14:47)

October 20, 2020Divine Downloads with Lisbeth Overton
In this week's episode, I talk with Lisabeth Overton who is a registered nurse, spiritual coach, podcast host, and the creator of the Divine Downloads oracle deck.

Lisabeth emphasizes that when you are in a receptive state to hear your inner wisdom and spiritual guidance, life becomes easy, joyful, and fulfilling. She talks about how we are conditioned to believe that life has to be a struggle versus the ease you can experience when you are tapped in. (7:32)

October 13, 2020Connecting with Your Inner Child
In today’s episode, we explore how to work with your inner child. At some point along our journey, our inner child can be wounded if the world didn’t reflect our inner magnificence. We have the ability to connect with our inner child energy and allow for powerful healing to occur.
Our earthly experiences can lead to confusion and distortion not allowing us to see our own magnificence. (2:11)
We discuss the human sense of who you are versus the deeper spiritual essence. (3:42)
We all get a little bruised on our journey, regardless of how wonderful or not our childhood experiences were. These bumps will be repeatedly triggered until we tend to those inner child needs. (4:50)
We have the power to heal the wounded parts of ourselves. In order to do this, we must acknowledge our inner child’s feelings as they surface. (6:23)
Sometimes your inner child throws a temper tantrum. We talk about what to do when this happens. (7:00)
Our inner child has different needs. Sometimes the inner child is expressing pain, and other times it’s asking for more joy. (9:00)
We need to build a relationship with our inner child and to reconnect with parts of ourselves that have been lost. It’s important to do this from a place of allowing. (9:30)
Finally, we dive into the 3 step process for working with the energy of your inner child to heal the parts of you still lost in the human confusion. (12:13)

October 06, 2020 Becoming a Mindful Millionaire with Leisa Peterson
In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Leisa Peterson, an entrepreneur, author, podcaster, coach, and self-made millionaire who inspires people around the world to create a life of prosperity. She is also the author of The Mindful Millionaire: Overcome Scarcity, Experience True Prosperity, and Create the Life You Really Want.
I had so much fun exploring the intersection between wealth and spirituality and learning about the powerful work she does helping people identify and clear their personal blocks to prosperity. I am sure you will too!

Highlights:
• Leisa shares how she experiences her intuition, and how she used to believe that the critical voice in her head was her inner guidance. She describes intuition as a connection to your true self, guided by unconditional love and support. (1:42)
• Leisa tells us about her own personal journey with money, and how she discovered that monetary success alone did not hold the key to her happiness. We also discuss how her work is so timely, as we are currently undergoing a transformation in our financial structures and personal relationships with money. (5:15)
• Leisa talks about money being a tool for personal and spiritual development, and not an indicator of self-worth. (8:11)
• Leisa shares her process of writing the book, and how she learned to move back and forth between the worlds of finance and spirituality. (4:11)
• Leisa discusses what happens when we come from a scarcity mindset and try to create prosperity from a place of lack. She explains, “when we're creating things in the world from a place of lack and scarcity, unfortunately, whether we like it or not, we arrive at that destination.” When you feel prosperous, the outside world tends to match your experience. (11:52)
• Leisa tells shares about the quiz she created that helps people identify their energetic blocks to experiencing prosperity. (15:01)
• We discuss the importance of creating a “sacred container” for doing your inner work, which is free of judgment and filled with love and self-acceptance. (32:00)

September 29, 2020 The Magic of Mediumship with Tina Conroy
This week I had the honor of interviewing psychic medium, intuitive, reiki master, and yoga teacher Tina Conroy. Tina is the director of energy and Healing Center for wellness and Integrative Medicine in Roslyn, New York, and the host of The Intuitive Woman podcast. I had a great time learning more about Tina and her unique gifts, And I am sure you will too!

Here are some of the highlights:
• Tina talks about how her grandmother’s prophetic dreams were viewed as “bad” by her family, and how this shaped her initial feelings about her own intuitive gifts. [2:05]
• Tina tells us about her own dreams, which have always been a powerful way for her to connect with her inner knowing. She also shares how her intuition blossomed after she began practicing reiki. [5:22]
• We discuss the importance of setting clear boundaries with the spirit world and aligning with only the highest channels of intuitive energy and wisdom. Tina shares that there is some information she asks the guides not to share with her, such as medical diagnoses for her clients or information that someone is going to die, because she wants to avoid playing into her clients' fears. [7:30]
• We discuss the difference between mediumship and intuitive readings. Tina says that the two experiences feel different to her: connecting with spirits is a higher vibration than intuitively reading a client’s energy. [8:52]
• We discuss how our intuition can sometimes be very subtle and personal. The experience of tapping into your inner wisdom is different for everyone; for example, Tina is more receptive to visual information than I am, whereas I am more kinesthetic. [14:30]
• Tina explains that it is often easier to read for someone else than it is for yourself because our emotions, beliefs, and attachments can make it difficult to find neutrality when receiving information for ourselves or our loved ones. [26:10]
• Tina reminds us that intuition is available to everyone, not just a chosen few. You too can learn to tap into your inner wisdom to enrich your life, improve your relationships, make better decisions, and feel good about yourself and your life. [35:00]

September 22, 2020 Letting Go of The Script
In this episode we explore the art of surrender and talk about how letting go of our plans and expectations can sometimes lead to greater rewards. As an example, I share how my process of recording these podcasts has evolved over time as I have learned to be more comfortable recording without a script. I then offer some simple exercises that listeners can use to get more comfortable letting go.

Highlights:
• I once made it my mission to always be over-prepared. I would have been horrified to give a talk (or record a podcast episode!) without knowing exactly what I was going to say and how I was going to say it. But through my work as an intuitive counselor and coach, I have learned that I do my best work when I remain fully present, letting go of the script and allowing my highest wisdom and guidance to come through me. [1:05]

• Our intuition only functions in the present moment, and the present moment is always changing. The more we can learn to tune into what's happening in the now, the more effectively we can respond to what’s happening in our lives and what our intuition is trying to tell us. [3:06]

• It is natural and normal to want to plan. The trick is to be flexible and not let your plans take over your life. Think of life more like an improv than a fully scripted play: you know the characters and context, and maybe even have some ideas about the events that could unfold, but once the curtain goes up you surrender to the present moment and the process and just see what unfolds. [7:23]

• Sometimes we over-prepare due to the fear of making mistakes. We believe that if we anticipate and prepare for everything that could possibly go wrong, then we will be safe. The problem with this approach is that you cannot possibly know what the future holds, and we risk getting lost in the planning and anxiety of trying to control everything and losing track of the present moment. Mistakes are a natural and normal part of life, that we should recognize and learn from rather than spending all of our time and energy trying to avoid. [10:20]

• Your higher self has a plan for your life, but your small mind (the one that tries to make all the plans) is not always privy to that. The more we can learn to let go, and trust in this the greater plan, the easier it will be for us to fulfill our soul’s mission. [14:00]

September 15, 2020Are You Spiritual?
We often hear people using the term “spiritual person” to describe someone who is committed to pursuing their own spiritual development. In this episode, we explore what it really means to be spiritual and how that label of “spiritual” can come more from the ego than from true spiritual awareness. We also discuss ways to connect most authentically to spiritual teachings.
The term “spiritual person” is really a misnomer, because at our core we all spiritual beings in human form. Being interested in spiritual topics and teachings does make you more spiritual than anybody else. [1:10]
The first stage of awakening is recognizing that you are more than your human personality. Often times, this burgeoning awareness can lead to an interest in spiritual teachings, but this is not always the case. [2:30]
Sometimes we are drawn to spiritual teachings because our soul intuitively knows we need this information to support our learning and growth. However, this does not always mean that we have reached the level of awareness where we can truly apprehend and appreciate these teachings. It is possible to be attracted to something and still approach it from a place of ego. [4:05]
All spiritual teachings must be filtered, to some degree, through the lens of our conceptual minds. Yet, our minds can never fully capture the deeper spiritual truths, and therefore our understanding of our true spiritual nature will always be limited, and subject to egoic interference. [3:35]
The best way to approach spiritual teachings is with a soft mind. Allow yourself to notice where your attention is drawn and what resonates with your entire being, rather than trying to compare, contrast, and pin down all the minute details. [8:57]
When you have a true spiritual awakening or a spiritual experience, it's not something that you can explain. It's not something you can force. It's not something you can do. It's something that simply arises. The more that we can treat spiritual teachings (and life itself) from that place of not knowing, the more we will move towards our own spiritual enlightenment.

September 08, 2020The Healing Power of Water with Michelle Giliberto
Sometimes you meet someone, and you just know that there is something special about them. That is how I felt when I first met this week’s guest, Michelle Giliberto. Michelle is an intuitive healer, educator, artist, and the CEO of Healers Who Share.

In this episode, Michelle shares about how she draws on her experience of reality creation, metaphysics, medical intuition, dowsing and frequency to assist people with transformation on all levels – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. You are in for a real treat!

Some highlights:
Michelle shares about her journey navigating her children’s chronic illnesses, and how this helped her to awaken her gifts as a medical intuitive. [2:00]
We discuss the value of raising our children with an understanding and openness to intuition. Michelle tells us how her mother helped her to nurture her intuitive gifts as a child. [8:50]
Michelle shares about her company, Healers Who Share, and how they make “frequency waters” to clear physical, mental and emotional illnesses, and imbalances. [10:20]
We discuss the importance of exploring our subconscious belief systems in healing our bodies and improving our lives.
Michelle shares how she uses frequency waters and theta healing to change beliefs in her client’s subconscious mind. [17:30]
We discuss the patterns that we experience in our lives and how life will keep showing what you need to work on until you finally get the memo. [20:00]
Michelle tells listeners that this is a great time in our collective history for people to wake up and realize how powerful they are! [24:58]

September 01, 2020 The Paradox of Perfectionism
As a recovering perfectionist, I can tell you that trying to be perfect is the most sure-fire way to suck the joy out of your life. In this episode, we explore the perils of perfectionism from a more spiritual perspective. I explain how it develops, share some steps we can take to free ourselves from this unhealthy mindset, and recount a personal story regarding my own journey with perfectionism.

Some key points:
• Spiritually speaking, you are already perfect: your perfect nature was given to you at birth and will be there when you die. Nothing you do here on earth could ever change that. Still, many of us spend our whole lives chasing external ideas of perfection, not realizing that we are already perfect as we are. [4:48]
• On a human level, nothing is perfect, and nothing is supposed to be. Striving for perfection on a physical level will always leave us wanting. Earth is an imperfect realm; when our souls agree to spend time on earth, we fully recognize that there will be some distortion of our true spiritual nature. [5:30]
• What most of us think of as “perfect” has more to do with what we have been taught than with the truth of our own inner divinity. What the mind thinks is perfect is based on our social conditioning and what we have learned is good and bad, not what is uniquely right for us. [6:29]
• Many of us develop this desire to be perfect during childhood. We learn this from watching the adults around us, who have already learned that they are not good enough. They show us through their words, actions, and example that we too are lacking. We fall victim to perfectionism when we mistakenly believe this that being “perfect” in their eyes will earn the care and acceptance that we so deeply desire. [8:35]
• Part of healing from perfectionism is allowing for life to be inherently messy. Sometimes things go the way our mind envisions, but more often they do not — remember that when things don’t go the way you think they should, it does not mean that you are any less worthy. It simply means that life has a different plan for you right now. [9:28]
