The hardest family pattern to recognize may be the one where we realize we are part of someone else’s story.

In this episode of Chats with Aunt Jacki, Jacki Smith explores family patterns, shadow work, ancestral healing, and the uncomfortable moment when we stop being only the child trying to understand our parents — and become the parent our adult child may be trying to understand.

After teaching about inherited beliefs, family legacies, ancestral contracts, and healing family patterns through the Akashic Records, Jacki reflects on the humbling truth that our children may not experience us the way we experience ourselves. This is especially tender in mother daughter relationships, parent and adult child relationships, and any family dynamic where love, grief, boundaries, repair, and old wounds live side by side.

We know our intentions. They know their experience. Both can be true.

This episode is an honest conversation about motherhood, adult children, impact versus intention, emotional healing, spiritual healing, distance, repair, grief, humility, and the magic of asking better questions before we defend the wound.

Because family patterns are not museum pieces. They are living things.

Deep in the forests of Waterbury, Vermont, the remains of a forgotten community are quietly being reclaimed by nature. In this episode, we explore Ricker Basin and Kelty Corners, two interconnected nineteenth-century hill-farming settlements that once stretched across thousands of acres and were home to roughly 50 families.

We’ll uncover the story of the hardy settlers who carved farms from the rocky Vermont hillsides, built schools, operated sawmills, raised families, and created a thriving community in what now feels like wilderness. We’ll also explore why the settlement gradually disappeared—including the challenges of farming, the devastating 1927 flood, and the construction of the Waterbury Dam, which ultimately submerged portions of the old community.

But the story doesn’t end there.

Today, hikers can follow old settlement roads through Little River State Park, discovering cellar holes, stone foundations, the Ricker Cemetery, the remains of the Waterbury Last Block Company sawmill, and the remarkable Almeron Goodell farmhouse. Nearby, the ruins of a Civilian Conservation Corps camp tell another chapter in the area’s history.

Plus, discover a wonderful inn, where the spirits have been looking over their guests for almost 200 years. It’s a fascinating journey into a Vermont - where the may seem distant—but the stories haven’t disappeared.

The Place of Safety is one of the finest stories in E. G. Swain's celebrated collection The Stoneground Ghost Tales, first published in 1927 by Ernest Benn Limited. Inspired by the upheavals of the English Reformation, the story centers upon an antiquarian's search for sacred church treasures believed to have been hidden from the royal commissioners of King Edward VI. As historical curiosity gives way to the supernatural, Swain creates an unforgettable tale of silent guardians, impossible apparitions, and mysteries that refuse to remain buried. Drawing upon his own experience as an Anglican clergyman, Swain became one of the foremost successors to M. R. James, combining authentic ecclesiastical settings with subtle supernatural horror. The Place of Safety remains one of his greatest achievements and is regarded by many readers as among the finest stories in The Stoneground Ghost Tales. Narrated by Christopher Halton.
