And all of it was love: Recent Episodes
Amy Oscar
I want to connect with you more steadily. So, I thought I’d try just talking to you, as if I’d called up a sister or a friend. For me, the conversation felt easy and comfortable, informal and expansive. I wonder how it will land with you. Do let me know. And as always, I’d love to hear about you. Tell me about your life and work, your journey along the path.
I always respond, though it may take a minute.
Have a wonderful new moon and a glorious summer solstice.Happy Week! xxooAmy
In this podcast episode, I sit down to talk about what’s in the room around me and wind up talking about what’s going on with my body, creativity and the spaces of my home - and I realize, as I’m talking, the parallel experience between my present self and my past self and project into the future, for a conversation with my future self.
I close with an exercise for you, talking with your own future self.
Notes for this episode:
-
I mentioned the first time I encountered channelling - when I was 28, in a NYC art gallery. The spiritual entity was named Ramtha. He spoke through a channel named J. Z. Knight. She became kinda famous back in the day. When I saw them, she was just getting started.
-
I said that I wanted you, my readers, to know me better. I’m uncomfortable being labeled ‘woo woo’ or ‘spiritual teacher’ or ‘channel’. I am so many other things. This leads, as I said on the podcast, to a rather ‘muddy’ brand - I collect treasure, read energy, chart people’s sacred biographies. I spoke on this call about nutrition and time traveling - I didn’t even mention I’m a yoga teacher! I am gonna have to do more of these morning talks!
-
I said that I’m a ‘Sacred Biographer’ - I’m also a Story Alchemist. Seeing myself this way, naming the deeper soul work I do, is part of my new School of Magic and Miracles curriculum. You can follow that journey here.
-
I said that I’m a Voice for the guides. I’m referring to my own ongoing education process, which I’m sharing now with readers in The Flow Journals, which you’ll find here.
-
I wondered aloud whether my new treasure hunting project would develop into a bonafide business venture. We’ll see. If and when it does, you can follow along (and go shopping) at Treasure Pile, over here.
All in all, I’m thrilled to be able to connect with you in this new way. This sort of conversation is what Becoming Real is all about.

Wow! I loved recording this reading for you.
As I sat with the sunrise and recorded this reading of the second transmission, the teachings moved through me - through my whole body - again. You can hear this activation happen as you listen.
Though I don't mention it at all - you can hear it as my voice changes, as my words speed up. I become engaged and excited by the work, adding stories from my own life, embroidering the teachings with my own insights.
This is what happens when the flow moves through us.
Listen while you’re driving, while you’re wrapping presents, while you’re making dinner. Perhaps you’ll have your own conversation with a friend and let me know how it goes.
Tell me how the Flow Materials are landing with you, how they’re working for you. Tell me how you are mapping the path to the way of joy.
One on OneIf you want to talk with me, here’s a link to my appointment calendar.
It’s $125-300 per 90 minute session. If you want to talk with me but this is outside of your range right now, tell me. When the ground is trembly, we need to hold one another in blessing. This is how I do my blessing work. Everyone’s got a different money story. You know what you’re willing (and able) to pay for a conversation with a person like me. I trust you.
To price your own appointment, use the code PERSONALPAY when you schedule your call. Send me an email telling me the fee you’ve selected. I’ll send you my Venmo info - or, if you prefer, I’ll shoot you a Paypal invoice that you can pay in installments.
Offerings
As I review the Flow Materials, I am increasingly attuning (again) to their message and frequency. As a result, I am rethinking all of my offerings for 2023.
I want everything that I offer to say: You are welcome here.
I’m keeping all of my offerings in one place. Click here to take a look.
There, you’ll find Journey, a weekly Zoom call. A walk through your own interior landscape. There’s a tent at the top of a hill. A labyrinth. A forest. This is illuminated work - awakened dreaming. We meet once a week. Bring your journal and your open heart. You are welcome.
You’ll also find there my Illumination Sessions, where you and I can meet one-on-one. You are welcome to talk with me about anything, everything. I will listen and tell you what I hear and what I see.
Finally, there will be my new School of Magic. It’s like Patreon meets Substack. A membership inside of which I can do one-day pop-ups, and longer explorations. Virtual retreats and four- week deep dives. We can cover all the juicy things. It’s open now.
I look forward to hearing from you - meeting with you.xxooAmy

In this episode, I went back to the February post entitled, Cold Feet, which led to a discussion about dream imagery and power. Then, I read a related post, entitled: Two Wild Feet, from December 1, 2020 and, in one of those wonderful mazes that serendipity brings, THAT post led me to another one, about a dream I’d dreamed even earlier - in December 2019. What a ride.
I hope you enjoy this. Let me know in the comments. I’m practicting letting my voice into the world again. So I’ll be doing more of these for a while.
Thanks for listening. With great love,Amy

A reading of my latest long piece for your drive to work, your evening meditation. A reading for you from me - and from Her.
“She stayed with us - even through she was erased and repressed and beaten out of us, She’s here.”
“Seven years ago, I had my first experience of the living vine - my first encounter with Her. That day, I was meditating, when I felt a kind of tickling around my ankles and calves and I had image and the distinct sensation of a green vine trying to climb my legs. Something green with roots of its own had decided to add itself to me and it was trying to climb my body from the earth up. At that time, I had the impression that the earth itself was reaching for me, was claiming me.
“As this was around the time when my father was dying and my mother was moving into the last part of her life, I wasn’t really paying attention. I was still working full time, writing a weekly column about angels for a women’s mgazine and just about to receive the light that would become The Soul Caller Training. Most of my attention was on that magazine column, though. Trying to put down the kind of disembodied, ungrounded spirituality that the job required. A kind of spirituality lite which never ventured into real trouble, nothing earthy, but kept directing the gaze of our readers upward toward transcendence.
“If I kept my eyes on my paper and did my work, I could avoid the suffering and grief that was all around me. But I do remember that vine and how it felt when it claimed me, like I was being drawn downward into the ground, as I was being drawn into my parents’ suffering and my own grief. She was there, even then.”
You can speed it up if you want. I’m listening back at 1.25 and it’s not too fast. There's a little button in the upper right corner of the audio player. At regular speed, I'm speaking slowly, deliberately, thinking about each word, each phrase as I read it out loud.
Either way, thanks for listening. :)

I received this message from The Guides at the end of January. This morning, I sat down to record it for you. I imagine you listening as you make breakfast or drive in your car. It’s an uplifting message, full of surprises - including a marvelous image of the air around us full of light, listening strands of Godstuff = which leaves me feeling surrounded by benevolent grace. I hope you enjoy it.
PS I’ve never read a FLOW transmission aloud before and this feels like an evolutionary step for me. Though the messages have streamed through rather effortlessly, I wasn’t sure how they’d feel in voice - how they’d sound.
It was okay. This is the written version, if you’d like to read along,

A few years ago, I recorded this poem for members of Sanctuary (my membership group, now ONECircle). When I came across it while reviewing files I thought I’d share it again. Let me know if you like this poem, and if you’d like me to record others. I think it could be a lovely Saturday morning tradition, don’t you?

The flow journals started as a way of grounding myself in a chaotic time. As it would turn out, they were the call of a lost part of my own voice and she was asking my permission to come out and dance
In this episode of my kindofa podcast, I am reading from a post on my Notes from the Field of Love and Miracles blog, entitled: Unsilencing Myself.
In my (kindofa) podcast, I read through my work and stop to argue with myself, to reflect a little further, and almost always, to laugh - mostly at myself and my endless need to perfect myself.
If you relate to what I have to say, please share the podcast around. That’s how the work gets to the people who need it. Thank you for listening.
Reading out loud puts things into order for me - it helps me see where the work drags, where it needs clarification. I see all kinds of punctuation errors. I’m leaving all of that there for now so I can focus less on perfection and more on getting the work out.
(This is actually a photo from a couple of years ago but I went looking for it on my computer cuz it’s a good representation of how I look (and how I feel) when I’m recording one of my imperfect podcasts. Enjoy!)

I recorded this meditation for my paid subscribers. As an end-of-year gift (and boy, we all deserve one) I’ve changed the settings so that everyone can access it. ——-
At the start of the day (at the end of the day) Come, sit with me by the window. Allow your body to ease and settle. Breathe. Ground to the calm and generous holding that holds us all. With very gentle movement, guided sensing breath work and a five minute moment of simple meditation.
