  • Soul Painting and Animal Communication with Nicole Harp
    "People always ask ‘Can my animal come back to me,” and I’m sure they can, and I’m sure they have every intention of doing that. I just can’t say they will, because maybe that’s not the animal you need for your higher growth. You don’t always get what you want, but you always get what you need.’"


    Meet Nicole Harp: An abstract soul artist and animal communicator (and so much more!). What a fun interview this was! Here’s what we cover today:

    • The mindblowing soul painting Nicole did for me
    • The reading Nicole did of my precious dog, Jake
    • Are animal souls different from human souls on the other side?
    • What kind of communication do you do for animals on this side?

  • Healing Houses with Sheldon Norberg
    "...He bought his mother’s house after she died. He felt really connected with her; he moved into her bedroom where she had died in bed, and he felt like he could sit on the edge of the bed and communicate with her. And if he went to the graveyard, it was a cold useless experience, and I said, ‘Yeah, because that’s where that person lived; that’s where your connection was.’ Nobody sits around thinking, ‘When I die, I’m gonna move into a casket in some graveyard 40 miles away.’"



    You might think of movies like The Exorcist or some other frightening tale of expunging spirits from homes and buildings, but today’s guest and his healing work are far from scary. In fact, I’m more intrigued by the skill of clearing energy from places and spaces more than ever! Here’s what we cover today:

    • What does it mean to heal a house?
    • How do energies continually exist in certain spaces?
    • How do you heal or clear a space?
    • What to do when you feel scared in your own space
    • How is this work different than those scary ghost hunting shows?

  • How to Come Out of the Psychic Closet, with Emma Andrews
    "When you're present in your body, you build trust. If you work on being present - if that's your number one priority - what that looks like is not holding back our needs, providing for ourselves what we need in the moment, showing up for ourselves in a consistent way, that builds trust. It shows ourselves that 'I'm here, honey. I'm here, and I love you. And when we feel safe, then we can begin to explore more deeply."


    Emma Andrews is with us today talking about intuition, being psychic, and mediumship in the gentlest ways possible: By first loving yourself. You don't want to miss the story of how she came to know she's a medium! Here's what we cover today:
    • A crazy validation that what Emma experienced from the Other Side was real
    • How to "come out" the psychic closet
    • The number one tool for trusting messages coming through to you
    • The one takeaway from this episode you must have as a beginning psychic
    • Why Emma recommends getting readings from a lot of different intuitives

  • The Pyramid of Inspired Living, with Aaron Wexler
    "I wanna say this about self-doubt, because self-doubt allowed me not to share my music for over a decade. Self-doubt is actually a tool. Self-doubt is a tool to create more confidence for yourself. It's kind of like...when you talk about light and darkness, you actually need darkness to help you find light."


    Aaron Wexler holds a lot of titles, but perhaps his most prominent is "Inspired." In this episode we talk about Aaron's Pyramid of Inspired Living, how he came to create and implement it, and how he hopes you can do the same with his or your own pyramid creation. Here are some of the things we cover:
    • What's an Inspired Athelete?
    • What lead to the Pyramid of Inspired Living?
    • Why self-doubt is not such a bad thing
    • The most important part of honing your craft, no matter what your craft is

  • When Shamanism Calls (Hint: It Ain't Pretty), with Kelle Sparta
    "That's the language of Spirit. Spirit speaks in symbols. Sometimes they'll speak in words, but the richer conversation; you really need to learn how to develop that vocabulary with your guides, because that gives you deep, deep layers of meaning, that if you insist on having a verbal conversation, you're going to miss out on a lot of the conversation."


    The Spirit Sherpa, Kelle Sparta, is here to impart her spirit communication wisdom on us today! Here's some of what we cover in today's episode:
    • What's a Transformational Shaman?
    • How you know Spirit is calling you to be a shaman
    • Kelle interprets a personal dream I had recently (gulp!)
    • What it means if you are shunned
    • The real reason behind COVID

  • Do You Have a Pink Starlight Spirit Baby? with Lynsi Eastburn
    "So the Pink Starlights, they are an incredible level of love; high frequency love. They chose the pink, because it represents unconditional love, and starlight, which is just brilliance, sparkles. It’s just incredible levels of light. So that’s where they got their name from. "


    Lynsi Eastburn, the creator of HypnoFertility, and the channeler of The Pink Starlight Spirit Babies is BACK to talk to us more about what the Pink Starlights are up to:

    • Who are the Pink Starlights?
    • How are they different from Indigo, Crystal, and Rainbow children?
    • How to tell if your baby is a pink starlight
    • Tangible things you can do to uplevel your vibration (and why you’ll want to start now)

  • Start Talking with Spirit Babies - Part 5
    "I think it's useful to know the general meanings of the major and the minor arcana when you are doing a tarot reading. You do not - by any stretch of the imagination - have to memorize every single card. I'm going to encourage you to maybe have a general understanding. Having a general idea of what they mean can really serve you well, but I really encourage you to tune into your intuition."


    This episode is Part 5 in the Spirit Baby Communication series. We are talking about how you can communicate with the beautiful, loving spirit baby realm. Yeah! You can do what I do! Here’s what we cover in Part 5 (the final part!) of this series:

    • How does card reading support spirit baby communication?
    • What's the difference between oracle cards and tarot cards?
    • How to get started reading cards
    • How to decipher, then trust, the messages your receiving from the cards
