Stephan A. Schwartz has spent 60 years researching consciousness through remote viewing, a technique he developed in 1968 to access the non-local aspect of human consciousness. He's used remote viewing to locate Cleopatra's Palace, Mark Antony's Timonium, Christopher Columbus's caravels, and archaeological sites that no one else could find. His work proves non-local consciousness exists and is not electromagnetic in nature.

Schwartz discusses his precognitive research warning of a major crisis coming in 2040. He's documented through remote viewing that people unconsciously sense this future threat, which is driving contemporary fear, resentment, and social division. This precognitive awareness is manifesting as fascism, racism, and gender suppression as people seek strongman leaders promising to fix what they emotionally sense but don't consciously understand.

He explores the 10% tipping point: when a significant percentage of people shift consciousness, entire societies transform. He cites examples like the elimination of slavery language, the decline of cigarette smoking, and the shift to LGBTQ terminology. He explains how consciousness is causal and fundamental, how intentioned awareness can alter reality, and why meditation and focused consciousness matter for both individual and collective transformation.

Schwartz addresses the 2040 crisis, what precognitive evidence reveals, and what humanity must do to avert catastrophe through conscious evolution.

David Collura co-founded Mosaic Wellness and Education, offering free energy workshops on experiencing your multidimensional self. He's the author of "Multidimensional Lens: Practical Ideas for Spiritual Co-Creation," a part-memoir and practical framework for multidimensional living.

David shares his out-of-body experiences, which range from full projections to mini OBEs where he steps partially out of alignment with his physical body. These experiences allow consciousness to operate outside familiar neural pathways, creating new insights and reframings. He discusses the spectrum between dreams and projections, and how they can mix together in complex ways.

He explores why experiential validation matters as much as empirical proof. When you have an experience, you know it's real. His sustained energy work through Mosaic produces measurable shifts in the quality of his energies, providing personal verification that works better than external proof.

David emphasizes play and enjoyment in spiritual practice. When experiences come from genuine interest and feel like personal expression, people sustain them. When they feel like obligation or something you're supposed to do, people run out of gas. His approach prioritizes discovery and experimentation over predetermined frameworks.

He also shares striking experiences, including encounters in non-physical spaces that left clear impressions of something real happening.

Ishtar Howell has been having out-of-body experiences and communications with deceased relatives since childhood. Raised in an agnostic, scientifically-oriented family, he experienced high strangeness that defied conventional explanation. His out-of-body experiences began around age five or six and continue to this day, providing evidence that consciousness exists beyond the physical body and that communication with deceased loved ones is real.

When Ishtar was 13, a car accident took his mother's life. He had a near-death experience during that accident that shifted his entire understanding of consciousness and the afterlife. His out-of-body experiences intensified after this event, and he began receiving verified communications from his mother and other deceased relatives on the other side.

His out-of-body experiences are characterized by a hyper-real quality similar to his near-death experience. Everything feels "realer than real," crisp, and fully conscious. He describes knowing things he shouldn't know, like historical facts that appear in his mind without any prior study. During school, information would surface that helped him pass classes he hadn't studied for. On a ghost tour at age 10, he accurately knew stories about the locations before the tour guide confirmed them.

Now a meditation teacher, monk, and intuitive, Ishtar shares how his lifelong connection to deceased relatives provides evidence that death is not the end and that communication across dimensions is possible.

David Ferrugio lost his father on 9/11 at age 12. Now he hosts Dead Talks, a podcast normalizing conversations about death and grief through hundreds of interviews. His new book, You're Not Dead Yet, explores how grief and loss teach you to live fully. His core belief: when we face death openly, we learn to live more completely.

Instead of letting his father's death define him, David learned that loss is inevitable and you choose how you respond. The experience shaped his philosophy about mortality and meaning. He discusses the choice between fear and action, staying open to possibilities, and how normalizing death conversations actually decreases anxiety.

David shares a remarkable moment at the 9/11 memorial when he heard his mother's voice speaking his father's name through the audio system at an extraordinary coincidence. He explores what happens when we assign meaning to experiences, how to balance openness without attachment, and why the absurdity of existence proves miracles are possible.

His work bridges philosophy, spirituality, psychology, and lived experience through interviews with experts, celebrities, and people with extraordinary stories.

Reverend Nancy Smith creates spirit drawings that accurately depict deceased loved ones she's never met, reads the Akashic Records to access consciousness-level information, and brings through mediumship messages providing evidence that awareness continues after physical death. Her work bridges artistic expression with spiritual communication, offering families specific details that prove loved ones are still present.

Smith has been highly sensitive since childhood, perceiving information beyond what people say in words. A major awakening forced her to develop and trust her abilities. Now she works from what she calls the highest vibrational level, accessing information directly from the "creator."

Her spirit drawings capture faces she's never seen with specific details like eye shadows, jawlines, and exact hairstyles that families instantly recognize. As she draws, she simultaneously receives personality traits, last words spoken, and emotional information. The process evolved from sketching what she visually perceived to automatic drawing where consciousness guides her pencil. One drawing contained multiple family members, each recognizable in the single image. Another time she drew a masculine face for a woman's grandmother but it turned out to be the son the person actually needed to hear from.

She also creates soul art using pastels to show healing colors and symbolic guidance, and works as a medium bringing through deceased loved ones who describe their existence on the other side. Each method accesses the same source but with different intentions and outcomes.

Kathy (M.K.) McDaniel had a near-death experience while in a medically-induced coma from severe pneumonia. What she witnessed during those moments of clinical death challenges everything we think we know about consciousness and what happens after we die. Her experience included terrifying visions followed by profound joy, providing compelling evidence that awareness continues beyond physical death.

Kathy was raised Catholic and believed everything she was taught about the afterlife, including concepts of purgatory and hell. When she fell critically ill in Seattle, she was put into a drug-induced coma with only a 38 percent chance of survival. During that coma, she had an extensive near-death experience that lasted what felt like years. She witnessed dark, disturbing scenes and confusing scenarios. But the experience shifted dramatically, revealing something that transformed her entire understanding of existence.

What makes Kathy's case compelling is the contrast between the terrifying visions and the profound joy that followed. She describes the experience in her book Misfit in Hell to Heaven. Her story raises important questions about consciousness, the nature of the afterlife, and whether our beliefs shape our experiences when we die.

Kathy shares details about what she witnessed, why she thinks her experience began the way it did, and what the joyful portion revealed about survival of consciousness and the reality of life after death.

Elizabeth Rea uses psychic abilities to advise CEOs and founders on high-stakes decisions, and previously worked with US federal agents solving cold murder cases. She's the founder of Insightful, where she provides expanded intelligence to help leaders make clearer decisions in complex business environments. Her work spans solving unsolved murders and guiding executives toward better outcomes.

Rea had a near-death experience at 16 in a McDonald's bathroom. During the incident, she watched from outside her body as a nurse checked her pulse on a white Timex watch. She could hear people's thoughts and feel their emotions. That experience revealed to her that consciousness exists independently of the physical body.

Her ability to access this expanded intelligence later helped solve a cold murder case in a Napa Valley tavern that had been unsolved for 20 years. She saw a man with dirty blonde hair and a white T-shirt, and visualized an old Cadillac with a tail fin. Thirty days after sharing these details, DNA evidence identified the murderer serving time in a Colorado prison. He had stolen the exact white Cadillac she described.

Now Rea works confidentially with ethical founders, CEOs, and investors worldwide. Her clients seek her out for clarity, sharper decision-making, and understanding the forces at play in complex situations. She discusses how the CIA has infiltrated psychic programs and why government agencies continue using psychic abilities despite public denial.

Professor Callum E. Cooper, PhD has spent two decades researching parapsychology and haunting cases with scientific rigor. His research covers out-of-body experiences, phone calls from the dead, mediumship cases, and death bed apparitions. Unlike the dismissal of paranormal research as woo, his work is grounded in psychology, statistics, and field investigation. He holds PhDs in social sciences, serves on the council of the Society for Psychical Research, and has written multiple books providing evidence that challenges conventional explanations.

Cooper studied classic haunting cases like the Cheltenham Ghost, where an apparition appeared repeatedly and could be tracked through a house. Researchers could experiment with it, follow it, and document its behavior over time. The apparition cast shadows, was seen from windows, and left questions that remain unexplained even today. He investigated Dr. Alex Tanous, who was tested for 20 years for out-of-body experiences. During experiments, strain gages were activated when Tannis performed well on remote viewing tasks. He achieved remarkable statistical outcomes describing objects in distant rooms through optical illusion devices.

Cooper's work includes phone calls from the deceased and the living, mediumship cases with verified details, and Gansfeld experiments showing statistically significant results in extrasensory perception research. Even skeptics acknowledge the statistical outcomes from Gansfeld studies are more replicated than expected in psychology. His approach separates genuine unexplained phenomena from hoaxes and hallucinations through rigorous analysis.

Liz and Professor Cooper discuss his most compelling cases, what remains unexplained in parapsychology research, how logical thinking supports rather than dismisses paranormal evidence, and what his research reveals about consciousness, death, and afterlife.
