In the third and final part of ‘How I Became an Energy Healer’ Jacobie explains how the spiritual adventures she went on after the break down of her marriage were the ultimate catalyst for her greatest healing and awakening. From throwing herself into all kinds of wild and wonderful experiences in Bali, to taking her yoga teacher training in Los Angeles, to saying ‘no’ to spirit and shutting everything off, to reconnecting with God and coming full circle with her ten year old self, to finally fully opening up to her psychic abilities during the 2020 pandemic, Jacobie gives a light-hearted touch to a sometimes heavy-hearted story.

Murray and his wife, Renee´ (our guest on last week’s podcast), built The Open Mind Space studio in Newcastle NSW, as well as a newly-completed retreat space called The Dome. Today, Murray shares his journey from being a mixed-up youth with adult coping mechanisms to his enlightenment while facing a 13-year jail sentence. It is a beautiful story of redemption and self-empowerment.

Murray is extremely passionate about men’s mental wellness, connecting people to nature, aiding people in rediscovering their true selves, and cultivating a safe environment in which people can continue to build a healthy relationship with their mind, body, and spirit. Through dedication and discipline, he now leads a life with his wife and daughter worlds apart from his past.

In this episode of the podcast, we interview Renée Wilkinson, a multi-modality intuitive channel, who has found her purpose in helping others remember their purpose for incarnating and guiding them to defy all logic to create the impossible. She began her intuitive channeling journey at 11, studied alternative health therapies, diverted into a film and TV career for a time in an attempt to be “normal,” but was quickly returned to her purpose in her late 20s. She and her husband, Murray, have gone on to connect with an incredible community in Newcastle, Australia, building The Open Mind Space, a wellness center and retreat space. They welcomed their daughter Sophia in late 2020.

Today marks the launch of our weekly metamorphosis chats. In this episode Jacobie walks us through the defining moments that ultimately led to her awakening and studies as an energy healer.
