Live The Call

Harmony Slater was sitting on her parents' floor, broken down by the perfectionism of chasing a professional ballet career, when a voice came through: "If you want to continue this, you can, but you're going to die." She wrote a letter, quit her dance company, and never went back. But the same pattern found her again on the yoga mat, and learning to make peace with her body became the real work.

In this episode:

• The childhood dream of curling up with a lion that became an early sign of spirit speaking to her through dreams
• Why her mom, "a bit witchy, a bit shamanic," answered "I think I'm going crazy" with "just do some yoga," and the sense of peace Harmony felt in her very first class
• How Ashtanga yoga, "the ballet of yoga," turned from healing to imprisoning, and how she kept the good without abandoning the practice
• The holotropic breathwork message that sent her to a Spinal Energetics training whose applications were already closed, and the spot that opened up when she landed in Portugal
• Why your body is always trying to heal you, plus a simple hand-on-heart practice for asking it, "What do you need?"
• Self-forgiveness, living in truth, and a practice for letting in a compliment instead of deflecting it

From the outside, Tatyanna Wright had it all: a childhood in five-star hotels, a television career in Manhattan, and a life that looked perfect in every photo. But for years, a voice kept repeating the same words: "It's time. The unfoldment has begun." This is the story of what happened when she finally listened, and what it cost her to stop pretending.

In this episode:

• Growing up in luxury hotels in Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Sydney, and seeing spirits in the hotel halls and in the pineapple fields on her way to school
• The profound awakening during a yoga series shoot in India, surrounded by towers of yogic books
• How a stranger's drawing of a winged serpent goddess, a trip to The Met, and a single page of a book uploaded online led her to a 27th-generation Nepalese shaman
• Online fire ceremonies, three weeks in Nepal, and learning to commune with wind, fire, and rain
• Why she spent years searching for the "right time" to leave a decades-long marriage, and what staying was doing to her body
• Inside her sessions today: channeling, chakra work, soul retrieval, and a personal mantra to practice for 41 days

What if the wound you can't explain, the phobia, the ache an X-ray never finds, the pattern you keep repeating, isn't from this life at all? Akashic records expert and intuitive teacher Dr. Toni Reilly joins Pamela to unpack past-life regression, the "bruises" that shape our insecurities before we even know it, and why grief so often becomes an unexpected doorway into spiritual awakening.

In this episode:

• Toni traces her "bruising" framework back to a childhood memory of being excluded by classmates over having a boy's name and how that moment shaped a lifelong pattern of insecurity
• She describes past-life regression sessions where physical symptoms unexplainable by Western medicine resolved instantly once clients recalled their origin
• Toni recounts her own regression after reading Many Lives, Many Masters and training directly with Dr. Brian Weiss in New York
• She breaks down the three core modalities she's built under Soul Life Psychology: recall therapy, Life Map, and bruises
• Toni and Pamela discuss why grief so often becomes an unexpected gateway into exploring intuition
• Toni shares what's currently open through the Toni Reilly Institute, including the ongoing Mediumship Development Circle and a standalone recall therapy course launching in August

Twenty years ago, Lindsay Vatterott's nervous system exploded mid-yoga-class with pressure blowing up her spine, heat flooding her body, a friend taking over the class while she lay on the floor wondering what had just happened. Doctors found nothing. What followed was over a decade of purging, isolation, and a marriage pushed to the edge, before it became the embodied life she teaches from today. Lindsay joins Pamela to name, in detail, the physical side of awakening almost no one talks about.

In this episode:

• Lindsay describes the moment her kundalini-style awakening hit while teaching a 6am yoga class in a 105-degree room, and why she was convinced something was "physically wrong" with her
• She walks through years of unexplained symptoms, tingling, head pressure, nausea, "purging" episodes and the negative test results, MRIs, and EEGs that never found a cause
• Lindsay shares the highway incident where the pressure in her head "burst" and her sense of a separate self-dissolved into a field of awareness
• She and Pamela talk about the toll the awakening took on her marriage, her isolation from friends, and raising four kids through it
• Lindsay explains what shifted her from resisting the energy to working with it, and defines surrender as "handing it over to Spirit"
• She offers a practical check-in for listeners questioning their own experience: can you still function, still connect, still do your life and if not, what support to look for

Julie Ryan spent decades inventing surgical devices, then a birthday book cracked open a second career as a psychic medium who scans the human body like an MRI. In this episode, she walks Pamela Downes through her 30+ years of communicating with spirit: the maternal spirit that greets every dying person first, the "wing tip vortex" that pulls a soul free of the body, and the psychiatrist who scanned her brain to help prove it. Part business story, part ghost story, part permission slip to trust yourself.

In this episode:

• Julie explains how Carolyn Myss's Anatomy of the Spirit and Dr. Barbara Brennan's Hands of Light led her to six years of training at a healing arts school before going full-time
• She describes the 12 phases of transition she observes at the deathbed, including the order spirits arrive and why the soul exits up and to the right
• Julie shares how psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen used a SPECT brain scan to show measurable brain activity while she communicated with spirit
• She discusses reconciling her Catholic faith with her intuitive gifts as a self-described "Cafeteria Catholic"
• Julie breaks down how she scans bodies to sense injury and illness, including a healing session involving stem cell energy
• She closes with her free book download and her October 23–25 in-person training in Atlanta https://askjulieryan.com/aat

For years, Helmut Koeckritz tried to fix his way out of a body that wouldn't stop breaking down until the fixing itself became the problem. Diagnosed with 75 physical and psychological symptoms, including OCD, chronic anxiety, and food reactions so severe he could safely eat only two foods, he tells Pamela how he finally turned things around: not with another protocol, but by learning to stop fighting his own nervous system.

In This Episode:

• How manageable symptoms in his 20s and 30s built into 75 total, including a stretch where rice, beef, and apples were the only foods his body would tolerate
• Why the OCD and looping anxious thoughts he once resented became what he calls "the greatest teacher" of his recovery
• The shift from Facebook rabbit holes and "no hope" support groups to brain retraining, and learning to allow symptoms instead of fighting them
• Why becoming fully indifferent to his symptoms, not just tracking them, was what finally let his nervous system settle
• The daily practice that surprised even him: 45 minutes of dancing to '70s and reggae music after dinner
• How a stalled cleaning business and a spontaneous YouTube channel led him to become The Mindful Gardener, now teaching others through a monthly membership community

Guest Bio: Helmut Koeckritz, known online as The Mindful Gardener, spent his 20s and 30s battling an escalating cascade of symptoms that eventually reached 75 in total, including OCD, anxiety, and severe food sensitivities. After a self-taught recovery built on nervous system regulation and non-resistance, he ran a cleaning business before returning to his true calling, now teaching others to become their own "mindful gardener" through YouTube content and a monthly membership community. He is also a musician, and credits daily dance and visualization practices as part of his recovery.

What if the spiritual gifts that are opening up in you right now — the light language, the downloads, the knowing that something has fundamentally shifted — aren't random? Akashic Records consultant Lisa Wetsel has spent 20+ years inside the field, and in this conversation she and Pamela map the territory almost no one talks about: what the records actually are (not books, not a library — a living data center coordinating the flight plan of your soul), why developing spiritual gifts takes far longer than any six-month course will tell you, and why both of them believe the planet is in the middle of an irreversible awakening right now.

In this episode:

• Lisa shares how her path began not with a dramatic awakening but with a quiet pull toward massage therapy — and how her instructors' intuition-first teaching method cracked open her gift for reading energy in the body
• She describes the moment the Akashic guides spoke to her directly and asked her to become their "mouthpiece" — and what it felt like to say yes without fully understanding what she was agreeing to
• Pamela and Lisa unpack the airplane-and-control-tower metaphor that Lisa uses to explain how the Akashic field coordinates soul contracts, guides, and divine timing
• They explore light language: how it arrived unbidden for both of them around the same time, how Lisa uses it to clear stuck energy in client sessions, and why she believes it may become a universal language
• Lisa reflects honestly on the difference between being a spiritual practitioner and being a spiritual being — and why the gap between those two things matters deeply
• Both hosts challenge the culture of endless spiritual courses and certifications, making the case for simplicity, stillness, and the "simplistic mind" the guides are calling us toward now

A man who spent a decade as a pastor, building a church from a dozen people to 750 across three locations, sat down on this podcast, took a breath, and let three unseen beings speak through his body for nearly fifteen minutes. One of them called itself "the light of Christ." This episode is David Trotter's account of how that happened, and what came through live.

In this episode:

• David describes the moment at 18, kneeling at a youth conference on December 31, 1990, when he first sensed God say, "I want you to be a pastor."
• He recounts becoming an associate pastor at Rock Harbor in Orange County at 25, watching it grow from 100 to 1,000 people within months, then later growing his own church from a dozen people to 750 with a dozen staff and three locations before hitting burnout and leaving ministry in 2008.
• David walks through his slow "deconstruction" process — starting with the question of LGBTQ inclusion, then the question of heaven and hell (influenced by Rob Bell's Love Wins), and eventually questioning whether heaven exists at all.
• He describes a 5-MeO-DMT ("bufo") experience that triggered a full ego death, a tearful life review, and the message: "Your calling has not been revoked. You are a messenger of love and light."
• David explains how light language and channeling emerged spontaneously during medicine ceremonies and, later, during regression hypnotherapy sessions — without medicine.
• Live on the podcast, David channels for the first time on Pamela's show, delivering a message centered on intuition and the "static" of fear that blocks it.

Rich Braconi spent years working narcotics cases as a detective, chasing bad guys, climbing toward a sergeant promotion, building a life by the book. Then his marriage fell apart, his finances collapsed, and his family quietly decided he'd had a breakdown. What happened next is the subject of this episode: how rock bottom became the doorway to a spiritual communication Rich didn't believe was possible, one that eventually turned him into a trance medium, medical intuitive, and spiritual teacher.

In this episode:

• Rich describes hitting "the lowest point" of his life — disconnected from his family, separated from his wife, living month-to-month — and how that's where he first learned to "surrender soul control and soul ownership" over his life.
• He shares how his own family reacted when he started talking about his abilities: they told others "he had a nervous breakdown" and "thinks he talks to God."
• Rich walks through how his abilities expanded in stages — from channeled information, to sensing medical imbalances, to full mediumship, to seeing future events and past lives.
• He tells the story of reconciling with his ex-wife Michelle after roughly ten years apart, and how changing himself first — rather than trying to change her — is what rebuilt the relationship.
• Rich recounts a mediumship gallery story where three audience members, seated near each other by "synchronicity," each turned out to be connected to a father named David or Dave who died of a heart attack.
• He describes the moment he chose to leave a promising law enforcement career — passing on a sergeant promotion — to follow his spiritual path.
• Rich talks about his move from New Jersey to Kentucky, stepping back from large public mediumship events to focus on teaching, mentoring, and online events.
