Meet Lynn K. Russell.

In her own words: "As a child, I was the only spiritual person in our family. My grandfather’s death, when I was around eight or nine, made me realize my mortality. My mother was an atheist, and when I asked her what happened when you die, she told me "nothing, you just disappear". I was a little kid; I didn’t want to vanish, and I became terrified of death. In my mid-teens, I began studying the various religions, philosophies, and spiritualities. I studied their histories and how they developed...

In my thirties, I developed an interest in cosmology and other sciences. Today I’m fascinated with the findings of quantum and astral physics, studies of the mind, and spiritual consciousness.

I became a family counselor for almost thirty years and had many years as a workshop facilitator, giving talks, and teaching spirituality. I’m also a Unitarian lay chaplain and officiate at weddings, funerals, and child naming ceremonies. My interest in spiritual learning has not faded, and I now have over 65 years of spiritual growth.

After retirement, I could finally get interested in what I wanted to do, be a writer. In one story, the hero astral projected. So, I went online to find out if it was even possible for my hero to do what I was proposing. That’s when I found OBEs (Out of Body Experiences) on a website called NDERF.org. Although they researched Near-Death Experiences, there was some information on OBEs as well. However, I got sidetracked when I became fascinated with the underlying profound spiritual knowledge within those reports. After joining the chat group, I became a bit of a regular, at least until Dr. Jeffery Long and his wife, Jody, asked for someone to volunteer to do research, and I put my hand up.

It indeed was a delight to have ended up researching 2500 death experiences. I was interested in the experiences these people were having. After a while, I was more interested in the spiritual learning within the accounts.

Meet Ian Whitehead! Click here to contact Ian

Ian has found the secret sauce to launching a business and quitting your 9-5 with purpose and clarity through transition and tried-and-true methods. He's here to share his wisdom and tips for working your way toward the life you deserve to live and will love.

Ian says, "You’re NOT alone! Balancing a full-time job and family life can be daunting enough...Trying to build a successful business (one that allows you to leave your 9-5 behind) without a plan - and you have a recipe for disaster.

From Ian's Website: "My path led me from a high-stress corporate job, where I sacrificed sleep and sanity for long hours and endless meetings, to a life brimming with possibility and passion. A pivotal moment occurred when I embarked on a year-long adventure, travelling the world in 2012. This experience ignited a thirst for exploration, personal growth, and the pursuit of life's greater meaning… and it set the stage for my eventual leap into the world of coaching and entrepreneurship. My coaching philosophy is rooted in a clarity of purpose and alignment. Through my personalized coaching program, I guide clients in uncovering their "why" to launching a successful business they are proud of and acquiring their first client in 4 months.

My approach encompasses not only the practical aspects of business but also the development of a growth mindset, erasing limiting beliefs and finding the balance between work and life. If you're in search of clarity so you can finally build that business you’ve been dreaming of and transcend your 9-5 routine, my coaching program “Foundation to Freedom” is here to empower you."

We are evolving in version 2.0 and turning boldly into the unknown. Join host Monica Martin as we explore extraordinary experiences through the voices of those who've lived to tell their stories. From authentic experiences to mind-expanding revelations and personal transformations, we seek to understand the human story, with all its unexpected weird twists and turns.

You will hear first-hand stories of the unexplained—from mysterious cryptids and alien encounters to paranormal experiences that defy explanation through the lens of the human experience. We will talk with authors, researchers, other podcasters, experts, and everyday people who need a sounding board to share everything they know and spread grassroots communication.

Each episode features human stories that challenge what we think we know, revealing details that often fly under the radar. We don't want mainstream conversations on this podcast. We will look at the fringe, the edges, and the intersections of thought-provoking topics and bring them out of the shadows.

If you’re drawn to the strange and hidden, join me on The Verbal Echo and discover how every story can change what you believe is possible.

No guardrails.

John Olsen is an author and host of The Stranger Bridgerland Podcast. Each episode delves into the eerie and unexplained. Nestled in the scenic Cache Valley of northern Utah, John calls Wellsville home, where he lives with his wife and youngest son.

From mysterious knocks and phantom footsteps to unsettling encounters with what he calls the “man in the hat,” his experiences sparked a lifelong passion for the unknown.
