Today is August 8th, the peak of the Lion’s Gate Portal. This is a powerful energetic gateway inviting you to reconnect with your own inner wisdom, release what no longer serves you, and align with the life your soul calls for.

It’s a time to open yourself to new possibilities and I recommend opening to the magic that’s all around you.

To celebrate this day, I’m sharing my own story of how my soul called to me about magic.

The Word Is MagicIt began with a single word. Magic. But you know that’s not just any word. Magic is a noun, a verb, a way of life. Magic holds the universe together and keeps the planets circling the sun. Even if you can’t quite see or hear or touch magic, you know without question that it is there.

Magic is real. At least to some people, like me.

During Covid, I felt its pull. Magic beckoned me and I heeded the call. I stumbled on a magic coach who started me with simple things. I loved it.

My favorite magic was with a sugar bowl, stirring sweetness into your life. I felt a little bit like Mary Poppins with her spoonful of sugar that made the medicine go down in the most delightful way.

But I didn’t need any medicine. I just needed the magic.

Friday is Freya’s DayMy coach suggested I pick a Goddess to work with and meditate with her every week. She said that Friday was Freya’s day and somehow that felt perfect. I chose Freya, or maybe she chose me.

From Norse mythology, Freya is the Goddess of love and war, beauty, fertility, and magic. Oh, of course she is. What a surprise that I felt drawn to her. So, I began a ritual where every Friday, I took a bath to cleanse my energy. I smudged my home to clear that as well. And once complete, I would sit in my chair to meditate and connect with the Goddess Freya.

It didn’t take too many tries before I enjoyed a visit from the Goddess herself. She came to me with outstretched arms and a smile. I wasn’t sure what would happen as she moved closer to me, but I stayed open and quite curious.

Freya came with healing in mind. She worked on my energy body, clearing and removing old energy, no longer wanted or needed. I could feel the change as a lightness lifted me. While I’m not sure how, something released and I felt free for the first time since…Well, I’m not sure I can even identify such a time.

The result were expressed in my art journal piece. I felt free to be my magical self. That me had wings and a very big heart. There were colorful clouds behind me and glittering chunks of rose quartz before me. I smiled brightly at this image once it was finished and still do today as it hangs on my wall.

Over time, I came to realize that I had been prevented from connecting with my magic by so many things. I discovered one vow after another, binding me and supposedly keeping me safe from interacting with magic.

  • I must not talk about magic.
  • I must not use any magic.
  • I must not teach or share any magic.
  • I must hide my magic.

I don’t know why I made these vows. Was this for my highest good? Was I coerced into these vows by another? I cannot say with any true clarity. But every time I found a vow, the need to shake free was undeniable and overwhelming. And I did, releasing every vow I came upon.

So, as a result, I became even freer.

Bypassing the ObstaclesMagic is boundless, so I found my way around the preventive measures that were meant to keep me apart from this universal life force.

Magic is for everyone, of this, I am sure. It’s a natural force waiting for us to discover and interact with. Magic is here to help us live the life we want and to do good things in the world. It is the secret to living a rich full life that’s fun and satisfying.

At a craft fair, I bought photographs of letters, captured from architectural elements. Each letter is a different image but put together, they spelled the word MAGIC in the most creative way. I hung the word over my office door. Every time I enter, I now enter the magic.

I took a course on blessings. Day one was the blessing of abundance. Day two was good health. Day three was peace. Day four was happiness.

Day five was different. I don’t remember what the teacher suggested, but my own blessing welled up within me to be brought forth divinely – I live in the magic.

While I had signed up for a 30-day program, I could go no further. What was a bigger blessing than to live in the magic? I’ve lived there ever since.

A simple song I had created years back came to me out of the blue. I started to sing it again while I took my daily walk. It’s a short song in a minor key but creates an uplifting feeling. Here are the words:

“Life is magical, life is magical, the universe is magic and the magic starts with me. As I open my heart, and expand it trustingly, the Universe does respond to me.”

Absolute gold. When did this come to me? I could not remember.

Magical ExperiencesMy life continued with discoveries and experiences that could be defined in no other way than simply magical. Moments that add so much joy and wisdom.

  • Getting a message from my honeysuckle vine, pointing out that I was missing out on joy and to open my awareness wider.
  • Seeing a three-inch boot print that depressed the grass in my front yard as I planted flowers. An elemental letting me know it was there.
  • After expressing gratitude in the garden to the plant devas and elementals, two tiny orange moths landed on my arm and did a synchronized dance before flying off together.
  • A friend built a fire on a summer evening and suggested we communicate with it. The fire spoke to me in poetry, describing its power and the nature of its energy.
  • A small pile of leaves caught my attention as I walked by my neighbor’s yard. They suddenly whirled upwards into the air in a surprising spiral.

Claiming MagicNext, I worked with a somatic coach, who helped me release stuck emotions from my body. During this one particular session, it was the magic that came free. I claimed it.

Both my hands reached up above my head to the sky and these words reverberated through my body as I spoke them: “I am magic.” Yes, I am.

Do I understand my history or what separated me from my magic? Some of it maybe, but certainly not all. Yet, how interesting that it doesn’t matter. I am magic and nothing can ever prevent that again.

But what I have discovered and now know to be true, is that you too are magic. We are all magic. So, if you haven’t yet come to this idea, or connected to your magic, but find yourself reading this curious piece of writing, know this message is meant for you.

You are magic and it’s time you started living as if you know that this is true.

If you feel ready to connect with your inner wisdom and magic, I’d love to help you with that. Reach out to me here.

Where the Magic Actually Lives* Magic showed up for Ronnie during Covid, starting with something as simple as a sugar bowl — proof that reconnecting with magic doesn’t require anything dramatic. * Working with a chosen goddess (Freya, for her) through weekly ritual — bath, smudging, meditation — opened the door to real energetic healing and release. * Unconscious vows (“I must not talk about magic,” “I must hide my magic”) can quietly block your connection to magic until you find and release them. * Magic announces itself in small synchronicities — a message from a honeysuckle vine, moths dancing on an arm, leaves spiraling upward — if you’re paying attention. * The claim “I am magic” isn’t reserved for a chosen few. As Ronnie puts it, “You are magic and it’s time you started living as if you know that this is true.”

FAQsWhat is the Lion’s Gate Portal?
The Lion’s Gate Portal is an annual energetic gateway, peaking August 8th, that many spiritually minded people mark as a time for release and alignment. It’s considered a powerful window for reconnecting with inner wisdom, letting go of what no longer serves you, and opening to new possibilities.

How do I start connecting with my own magic?
Start small and consistent. You might choose a goddess or guide to meditate with weekly,. Build a simple ritual around it (cleansing, quiet reflection, intention, journaling), and staying open to what shows up is often enough to begin. The connection tends to deepen with repetition, not intensity.

What is a soul vow, and how do I release one?
A soul vow is an unconscious promise, often made for protection, that can block you from fully living. This could be a vow to hide or never share your gifts. Recognizing the vow when it surfaces and consciously releasing it is often enough to feel its grip lift.

Can everyone access magic, or is it reserved for certain people?
Everyone can access magic. It’s described as a natural force available to all, not a special ability limited to a few. The main barrier tends to be awareness rather than aptitude. Start to notice small synchronicities is one first step toward recognizing it.

What are some signs that magic is present in daily life?
Signs of magic tend to be small and easy to miss, like an unexpected message from nature or an unusual pattern in the physical world. Animals may behave in a way that feels meaningful or even noticing a sudden shift in your own emotions or energy. Paying attention is what makes them visible.

Have you ever wondered if trees could communicate what would they say? I know…it sounds a little unusual. But this week I decided to find out.

I gave myself a challenge – I spent time with six different trees, asked each one if it was willing to communicate with me. Then, I listened. What happened next surprised even me. I’ve talked to plants, but never to trees.

Whether you believe I was talking to trees, tapping into my intuition, or simply letting nature inspire me, I invite you to keep an open mind. Let’s see where this adventure takes us.

What Started This Conversation IdeaIt all started when I went to the grocery store this week. I parked near the edge of the lot which has a nice evergreen border on the property line. AS I got out of the car, the trees caught my attention.

Looking closely, I noticed a ton of little green balls at the end of the needle groups that make up the cypress leaves. Spiky, bright green, and maybe half an inch in diameter. What the heck? Were those going to be pinecones?

I posted the picture on Substack and a friend looked it up. Yes! Those are tiny, immature pinecones of the cypress tree. That’s what caught my attention and and started me wondering if they had something to say.

Yes, they did.

Cypress: Beauty and Being SeenFirst, I heard these words: “Empress, royal, stately, graceful, beautiful.” Regal as they stand there, creating a tall emerald green border.

“I am a mother tree, so I have loads of pinecones. These are like our flowers, to seed the earth and keep our kind going. My babies are full of seeds and offer nourishment to insects and small animals, as well as seeding the ground with new cypress trees.

Don’t we make a beautiful border? Look at our auras and our energy fields. What do you see?”

I was quite surprised to see little elemental helpers scurrying about between the trees. Gnome-like beings, hats and all, bringing energy and life force, and keeping the flow going.

Then strangely, I also saw what seemed to be colorful, snake-like energies in pink and blue, swiftly wrapping around the trunks. Having never encountered anything like it, I did a little research.

In Norse mythology, serpents are tied to the World Tree. In Greek mythology, a snake coils around the tree of the Hesperides to protect the golden apples. And in Buddhist tradition, the naga king Mucalinda shelters Buddha beneath the Bodhi Tree. Someone else had this image before me. That was really comforting.

The cypress continued: “Trees have great wisdom because of our deep roots into Mother Earth. While our trunks are strong and stable, our branches blow in the breeze. We love this. To flow and move and twist and turn with the wind, dancing to our own lovely tune.

We’re happy to mark the property line; it’s the perfect job for us. A strong masculine boundary with a fluid feminine grace. Notice us, be grateful to us, be kind to us. Say hello, acknowledge us. So few people even notice our beauty or the job we do. Thank you for spending time in our presence.”

Ornamental Cherry: Abundance and GenerosityNext, I approached the ornamental cherry tree. Here’s what I heard, “I am the picture of abundance, filled with tiny cherries. My pink blossoms turn into fruit in a matter of months.

I love sitting here on your hill, rooted deeply into the earth, providing shade for the plants below me and a home to the insects and animals. Thank you for taking time with me today, for viewing me, appreciating me, and coming close enough to get to know me.”

Russian Olive: Sharing and SpreadingI said hello to the Russian olive tree and expressed that I love how it’s leaves go from green to silver in the breeze. They’ve populated so much of our land. I ask if this one would you tell me about itself.

“Thank you for coming to talk to me. I have a certain grace, I know this is true. I am prolific and I spread everywhere. I’m not meant to grow big and old because my branches and wood are soft. But I do create shade and I do spread rapidly.

I love sharing my presence on your land. I spread my branches wide as they curve down to make a wide top that brings shade to your yard.”

Cedar: ResilienceTwo cedar pines stand as siblings. Planted years ago as one-foot bushes, they are now 12 to 15 feet tall despite the deer chewing at their base. I asked what they’d say about themselves as evergreens.

“My leaves are spindly and small, but I am resilient. Regardless of the weather or the animals, I continue to grow. My branches come out from all around my trunk, inch after inch, filled with more branches. This is part of my beauty, strength, and resilience, and protects of my trunk as well.

We appreciated being given the space to grow, and we’ve done so beautifully, don’t you think?”

Oak: Standing in Your PowerThe oak was next. It’s such a stately tree. Regal, with a unique split trunk, like twins -two for one. It keeps its curled brown leaves through winter until spring brings new growth.

“Thank you for noticing me, for your comments, and kindness. I know you worry that I shadow your garden, but it all works out.

Here at the back of your property, I stand making a statement that this is where your property comes to an end. I am strong and I grow straight and tall. Oak is old wisdom, the wisdom of the druids. The small acorn grows the big, tall oak tree. We are mighty, we are wise.”

I asked if it would share some oak wisdom.

“Oak wisdom is about strength, about growing tall, standing still. It’s about staking a claim and standing in your power. When you stand tall in your power, you are like the oak. That makes us smile and we can see a smile on your face too.”

Poplar: FlexibilityLast was the poplar tree, tall, with siblings a hundred yards off. Their leaves twist and dance in the wind, the whole top of the tree sways like it’s moving to music.

“Thank you for noticing my grace. I love that I sway in the breeze, that my leaves are dancing and twirling. I am flexible and fluid. Okay, the willow is more fluid, but don’t deny me my own grace.

I love when a storm comes, so I can sway and dance, my branches reaching tall into the sky. I’m here to show that something tall and firmly rooted can still have delightful movement. You can be grounded and yet move and sway, dodge and hedge, persevere, and continue to grow and expand and experience life.

My leaves are often the first to fall in a storm, and small branches snap off, but I heal rapidly. That’s part of my perseverance. Not like oak, standing there tall and firm and unyielding. That’s not me. I move and I have grace.

My message to you is that you too can move and be flexible and change with the wind, and you’ll be rewarded for it. Sometimes you need to be firm. Sometimes you need to sway with the wind.”

What Do Trees Talk About?As I listened to each tree, I noticed something surprising. None of them talked about themselves for very long. Each one reflected something back to me that we humans needed to hear. They spoke of qualities which humans need to live well.

  • Cypress — Beauty and being seen
  • Cherry — Abundance and generosity
  • Russian Olive — Sharing and spreading
  • Cedar — Resilience
  • Oak — Standing in your power
  • Poplar — Flexibility

They seemed to be reminding me of qualities we already have but sometimes forget. Maybe that’s one of the gifts of spending time in nature.

Whether you believe the trees were speaking to me, or that my intuition was translating their energy into words, it almost doesn’t matter. The wisdom was real. And every message left me feeling more connected to the living world around me.

The next time you walk past a tree, consider being intentional. Stop for a minute. Really look at it. Notice its shape, its bark, its leaves. Say hello. Thank it for the shade it offers, the oxygen it creates, the beauty it brings to the world.

Then, if it feels right, ask, “Is there anything you’d like me to know today?” Then simply listen. Maybe nothing happens. Or maybe you’ll be surprised.

I started this little experiment wondering if trees had something to say. I ended it wondering something completely different. What if the trees have been speaking all along, and I simply never took the time to listen?

FAQs About Trees CommunicatingCan trees actually communicate with humans? Trees exchange chemical and electrical signals with each other and their environment, which science confirms. Whether a tree can communicate a message to a specific person is a matter of belief and intuition rather than proven fact. Many people report receiving impressions, feelings, or words while sitting quietly with a tree.

How do you communicate with a tree? Approach with an open mind, sit or stand near the tree, and quietly observe its shape, bark, and leaves. Say hello, ask a simple question such as “what would you like me to know today?” Then, listen for any words, feelings, or images that surface. Patience and stillness matter more than technique.

What is intuitive communication with nature? Intuitive communication with nature is the practice of tuning into subtle impressions, feelings, or inner “words.” These might arise while spending focused, quiet attention with a plant, tree, or natural setting. It relies on inner sensing rather than verbal exchange, and results vary from person to person.

Do different trees carry different meanings? Many spiritual traditions assign symbolic qualities to specific trees. Oak for strength and endurance, cedar for resilience, cypress for grace and boundaries. These associations come from folklore, mythology, and personal intuitive experience rather than scientific classification.

What The Trees Taught Me* Six trees, with six distinct qualities: beauty, abundance, sharing, resilience, personal power, and flexibility * Each message pointed back to something we need to remember, not just a fact about the tree itself. * Slowing down and paying attention to nature can surface intuitive insight, whether you call it tree communication or simply inspiration. * Here’s a small ritual to try. Pause by a tree, notice it, say hello, ask a question, and listen. That’s all it takes to try this yourself. Have fun!

Inner compassion is the foundation for how you treat yourself and everyone else. It’s how your energy enters a room and is felt before you say a word. In this podcast episode, Meg Reilly talks about extending the same kindness to yourself that you’d offer a good friend.

Building Inner CompassionThe podcast interview started even though I forgot hit record. When we finished, my heart sank as I realized that mistake meant there was no recording. We had to start over.

My first reaction was to feel embarrassed and unprofessional. What a dumb thing to do. With sadness in my voice, I told Meg what happened. We laughed a bit uncomfortably. Then I asked if she had time to do the interview again. She did – phew and on we went.

How interesting that our conversation was about compassion and that the best place to start is with yourself. Meg asked something that made me stop and think. If a good friend made that same mistake, would I give them a hard time about it or be kind and supportive? Most people do not treat themselves as well as they treat dear friends.

Treat Yourself Like You’d Treat Your Best FriendMeg’s coaching and writing focus on helping people live with more inner compassion. She has a simple way to check for it. When you make a mistake, stop and ask yourself what you’d say to a friend who did that same thing. You wouldn’t call her names or rehash the mistake for the next several hour, right? No, you’d say, “It’s okay. What should we do now?”

That’s the kindness you owe yourself too. Meg admits this doesn’t always happen automatically. It takes practice. Building inner compassion is a lot like building muscle at the gym because it requires regular practice.

Compassion Can Be Just Showing UpNot every kind of compassion involves fixing something. Meg spent time working in hospice care, simply sitting with patients who were unconscious or close to death. There was no problem to solve and nothing to say. She offered her calm presence and sometimes held a hand.

This kind of compassion doesn’t look like much when viewed from the outside, but it is felt. People who’ve had near-death experiences describe being aware of who was in the room with them. Being there IS the act of compassion.

Your Energy Enters the Room Before You DoMeg described what happens when she walks into a room full of strangers. She can immediately sense who’s happy and who’s miserable even if no words are exchanged or no physical contact is made because the energy is there.

This is where the idea of self-compassion can often be underestimated. When you’re kind to yourself, that energy ripples out into how you treat everyone around you. And it continues rippling from there, like that proverbial pebble dropped in a pond.

I talked about my friend MarBeth Dunn whose message is that world peace starts with inner peace. We also talked about how each of us is a single drop in the ocean and the entire ocean at the very same time. That always amazes me and now I see the connection to inner compassion from this perspective.

Small Actions Create Big RipplesWhen our conversation turned to big global problems like climate change, it’s easy to feel like nothing you do personally can make a difference. Meg brought up the phrase, “Think globally, act locally.”

The truth is that skipping paper towels, driving electric or hybrid cars, and recycling are small choices that actually can add up and make an impact.

I shared a story you may have heard before about working with two friends using an energy clearing practice to help heal the oceans. This seemed rather grandiose to me, but I went along with it and did my part for the 90 minutes we worked together.

Partway through, I got an intuitive message from a male figure resembling Poseidon (maybe it was the trident he was holding LOL), thanking us for our efforts. He let me know that even three people can really make a difference. My takeaway was that consistent, intentional energy matters, even if you’re a small group or just one person.

Choose Your Words WiselyYour words and actions leave a bigger impact than you might think. Unkind comments tend to stick with you far longer and more vividly than kind words ever do. Meg says this is exactly why it’s worth slowing down with your language.

Since you don’t know how your words will land and be remembered, she recommends that you be more conscious about what you say. True for words about yourself as well, which is why more inner compassion is needed.

Inside The Echoes DeckThen, I asked Meg about her new oracle cards called the Echoes Deck. Meg’s original 48-card oracle tool was created for personal inquiry, insight, and self-guidance. Most oracle decks feature a theme like angels, animal guides, or essential oils.

Meg’s deck has four realms: the external, the internal, the eternal (which covers body, mind, and spirit). But there’s a fourth realm called Echoes, that represents the energy you put out into the world and what comes back to you (just like an echo).

Each realm holds twelve cards and features a hand-drawn mandala. You might notice patterns in the layout such as repeating numbers, recurring imagery, or a particular realm that shows up repetitively. This is the same way a tarot reader might look at the suits and major arcana.

Why Compassionate Energy Spirals Upwardcompassionate energyWhen you recognize your own humanity, which means your mistakes, hard-won lessons, and moments of sorrow, that’s what makes it possible to extend real compassion to someone else.

Once you offer it outward, people start to experience you as a genuinely compassionate person. That perception reinforces the whole cycle and causes the energy to spiral upward.

In contrast, you can walk into a room and feel whose energy is spiraling down just as easily as you can feel who’s happy. Choosing to meet that with compassion, rather than getting pulled down along with it, takes practice, but it is learnable.

Set Your Radar to See Good in the WorldWe discussed how so many spiritually minded people are saying how everything is “crumbling”. But language shapes energy too and those words can lower your vibration and the energy around you. On the other hand, if you reframe this as “things are shifting,” that keeps you oriented toward what’s possible rather than on what’s collapsing.

I shared a mantra I borrowed from a friend at the start of 2025: “I am open to the possibility of positive outcomes.” This idea has helped me through so many downward news cycles! What I find helps is to set my internal radar to notice the positive. And that helped me see the good things in my life and the world.

The Choice That’s Always AvailableUncertainty and worry can’t be eliminated from being human. However, in any given moment, you can choose compassion. Offer a kinder response, toward yourself and others around you.

These small, conscious shifts are what end up shaping how happy you actually are, and that positivity ripples out into the world around you. It really starts that simply with one compassionate choice at a time.

Where Does the Compassion Begin?* Inner compassion is a practice, not a personality trait. Treat yourself the way you’d treat your best friend on her worst day. * Presence alone counts as compassion, even when there’s nothing to fix or say. * Your energy is felt by others before you say a word, so how you treat yourself shapes who you appear to be to everyone else. * Small, consistent actions, energetic or practical, genuinely add up, even when facing enormous problems.
Words leave an impact whether you intend them to or not, so choose them with that in mind. * Reframe words like “crumbling” to something more positive like “shifting.” This small change in language repositions what you notice and experience.

FAQsWhat is self-compassion, according to Meg Reilly? Meg defines self-compassion as treating yourself the way you’d treat a close friend who made the same mistake. Offer grace and curiosity about what to do next, rather than criticism. She frames it as a daily practice, not a fixed trait, comparing it to strengthening a muscle at the gym.

What is The Echoes Deck? Meg Reilly created The Echoes Deck, a 48-card oracle deck organized into four suits or realms including the external, internal, eternal, and Echoes. Every realm has 12 cards with hand-drawn mandalas cards, designed for personal insight and guidance.

How does self-compassion affect the people around us? Meg describes energy as contagious. The kindness or harshness you direct at yourself shapes the energy you bring into a room. Other people sense and respond to this. Practicing self-compassion ripples outward into how you treat everyone else.

Can small individual actions really make a difference against big problems like climate change? Yes, according to Meg. She points to the familiar phrase, “Think globally, act locally,” meaning that recycling, driving electric, buying in bulk are proof that consistent small actions add up, even when a problem feels too large for one person to affect.

Why does Meg say compassion “spirals upward”? Once you extend compassion outward, others begin to perceive and treat you as a compassionate person, which reinforces the pattern and strengthens it over time. This creates an upward spiral of energy, lifting the vibration for yourself and everyone around you.

Magic was never scary to me. That’s why finding out I was afraid of it caught me completely off guard and left me spinning.

For years I’d been working with magic without calling it that. I wrote little songs for myself, repeated like chants, to help me manifest a newspaper column, my husband, and plenty of smaller things along the way.

I didn’t think of it as magic but as a way to focus my energy. However, once my magic coach pointed out what I was actually doing, an old fear surfaced right alongside the curiosity. I had no idea where it came from.

That question sent me looking for an answer, and what I found was a protective wall around my own heart. Two walls, actually, discovered years apart, protecting two very different parts of my life. Here’s both stories, plus what I’m doing about it at a live event on July 29th.

The Cage Around My HeartBack in 2020, stuck inside during Covid like everyone else, I started working with a magic coach named Mikala. She helped me see the magic I’d already been using for years without naming it. That was exciting and also the moment the fear showed up.

It wasn’t rational. I wasn’t casting spells or doing anything harmful, just directing my energy toward what I wanted. But the dread was real once I discovered this was magic. So, I went looking for its source the way I usually do with past-life work. This is a healing modality I’ve relied on for close to 30 years.

The Akashic Records had already revealed plenty to me about past lives and how they influence me today. Like why calligraphy came so naturally. I had been a monk illuminating Bibles in the Middle Ages, as it turned out.

This time, what I found was darker. I discovered a life in Venice that ended with my head removed for practicing magic with a group. There was also a pattern of betrayal tied to magic showing up more than once.

So by 2022, I decided to finally work through it using a meditation based on Dr. Bradley Nelson’s Emotion Code He created this idea that we sometimes create a protective wall around the heart that can block us instead of helping us.

Asking to See the WallI set my intention to heal my fear of magic. Then I asked to see the wall in this gentle meditation.

What appeared was a stone dungeon. I was standing inside a metal cage, spikes pointing inward at heart level which seems like something straight out of a horror film. I didn’t know how to dismantle it myself, so I asked my guides to handle it. The metal melted into a puddle at my feet.

Then it reformed into a metal plate with two interlocking hearts, one pointed down and one pointed up, woven together like the Star of David. I stopped the meditation right there, went to my computer, and looked up the symbol. It represents unity. One heart and the end of duality. Whoa – that felt important.

Going back into the meditation, I asked what that meant for me and my magic. The answer was to stand on the plate whenever I do magic now. It will keep me safe.

I still don’t cast spells or light ritual candles, though there’s nothing wrong with that path for someone else. However, these days I talk about magic openly with clients, with friends, or anyone curious enough to ask. A few years ago I never would have said that out loud.

Is Your Subconscious Keeping You Too Safe?Fast forward to this year, I decided to share this powerful, yet completely safe process. So, I created the live Heart Wall Meditation event for July 29th. To go a bit deeper, I thought the best thing was to run the process on myself again, but this time with a different intention which was friendship.

Midlife has a way of thinning out your circle of friends. People move, pass away, and drift apart. Each time it happened, I told myself I’d go make new friends, and then did nothing. That bothered me, because I’m a social person who works alone at home and genuinely craves connection. So, why the stall?

I sat down and asked my subconscious to show me what was in the way. A wall appeared but this time it was brick, not a metal cage. Big, solid, and completely unexpected. I was totally shocked! I asked the wall if it had a message for me and it explained why it was there. Then I asked if I could take it down and got an immediate yes.

I decided to have some fun with it and imagined a ray gun. One blast and the wall came apart, leaving a pile of rubble. I told the rubble to sink into the earth and be recycled. Gone.

Except I wasn’t quite finished. Something told me to look again, and a white stockade fence appeared. It was six or seven feet tall, points on top, and solid. I imagined a saw and cut a doorway in the middle, then walked through to the other side. Nothing there but open grass. When I turned back, I gave the fence a gentle push and it fell flat, then dissolved.

Remove Old Walls of ProtectionTwo walls, two completely different methods to demolish them. One I blew apart, the other I removed gently. Both ways worked just as well! That’s the part that surprises people most.

Your subconscious isn’t working against you. There’s no battle required. It’s simply doing its job to protect you, but with outdated information. That means you don’t actually need it and get to choose how you clear it. Fierce or gentle, the wall still comes down either way.

What struck me afterward is that I’d cleared heart walls before around magic, around business. But it never occurred to me to check friendship. Now I’m more open to new people than I’ve been in years.

What This Means For YouBoth stories point to the same truth. Your subconscious builds walls to protect you, using old information that may no longer apply. The protection can end up costing you more than it saves, whether that’s your magic, your business, your relationships, or your sense of safety in the world.

The good news is that you don’t need decades of past-life work, shadow work or inner child digging to find your own wall. You just need a willingness to see it, ask what it’s doing, and be rid of it.

If any of this stirred something in you, I’m hosting a live Heart Wall Meditation on July 29th where we’ll go through the process together. You can register here.

Does Your Heart Have A Wall Protecting You From Something You Want?* A heart wall is a protective barrier around the heart. It might look like a wall of some kind in front of you or some other protective mechanism in meditation. It could be metal, brick, glass, or a fence that shields you from old pain. The problem is it can also block what you want now. * Fear of something you love or desire, like intuition, love, or a thriving business, can exist side by side with genuine enthusiasm for it. The two aren’t contradictory. * Heart walls can show up around any part of life including spiritual growth, creativity, career, family, and you may have more than one without realizing it. * You can clear a heart wall by any creative method that you imagine. It might be with force like throwing a grenade to demolish it or gently by simply opening a door or pushing it over. Both are equally effective. * Your subconscious mind isn’t an obstacle you have to fight. Thankfully, it’s job is to protect you, often using outdated information. That’s why the walls come down more easily than you’d expect once you become aware of them and ask. * Noticing a pattern of avoidance in your life, like a friendship you keep meaning to build or a goal you keep circling, is often a sign that a protective heart wall is involved.

FAQsWhat is a heart wall? A heart wall is a protective barrier the subconscious builds around the heart, often in response to past pain or trauma. It’s meant to keep you safe, but it can also block love, opportunity, or connection you’re consciously trying to invite in.

Can you have more than one heart wall? Yes. Heart walls tend to be specific to different areas of life. It’s entirely possible to clear one around business or intuition, and still have another, separate wall around friendship, love, or health that hasn’t been addressed yet.

How do you clear a heart wall? Through a guided visualization, you ask to see the wall, then ask permission to remove it. The method varies from person to person. Some walls dissolve gently, others need to be broken apart. But both approaches are equally effective at clearing the block.

Is a heart wall the same as a limiting belief? They’re related but not identical. A limiting belief is a thought pattern; a heart wall is more of a protective structure the subconscious builds around it. Clearing the wall often makes the underlying belief far easier to shift.

What can a heart wall block besides love? A heart wall can block any form of connection or flow including creativity, magic, friendship, business success, romance, or receiving support from others.

Why You’re Suddenly Noticing Small Signs the Universe Has Your BackTiny miracles are the small, easy-to-miss moments of grace that show up in an ordinary day. This might include a stranger’s kindness, a found coin, a text that arrives at exactly the right moment. Noticing them changes how supported life feels, even though nothing about your circumstances has actually changed.

I didn’t go looking for this. It started with a compliment from a stranger, then a quarter on the ground, then a phone call I’d been hoping for. None of it was earth-shattering on its own.

But the moments kept stacking up, one after another, until I couldn’t ignore the pattern anymore. Which made me wonder if these tiny miracles been happening all along, and was I too busy or too in my head to catch them?

What Counts as a Tiny Miracle?A tiny miracle is any small moment of unexpected kindness, timing, or connection that feels like more than coincidence. It doesn’t need to be dramatic. Here’s what showed up for me in just a few weeks once I started paying attention:

A stranger’s kindness at the grocery store. The produce person complimented my black-and-brown dress, then struck up a whole conversation about her love of neutral colors.

Kindness with shopping carts. At one store, a man wheeling his cart toward the entrance handed it to me and went back for another. Days later at Trader Joe’s, a woman did the same thing at the front door. Then, when I finished unloading the cart into my car, an employee took the cart away without a word. I was taken care of from door to door!

Found money. I found a quarter in the parking lot when visiting the chiropractor. Finding change always feels a little magical to me.

A message from a flower. I was in the garden and felt the nudge to photograph a vine with small purple flowers and yellow stamens. I asked if it had a message for me and heard that it was looking forward to serving the bees. Then bam, a bee landed on the flower right after, so I caught that shot too.

An invitation. I’d been wondering when he’d invite my husband and me on our annual boat ride. He called two days later with the invitation.

My husband cleaned up the deck. Getting ready for dinner out one evening, I came downstairs to find the outdoor cushions already brought in and the table umbrella closed. This is something I usually have to ask for. It’s not that he doesn’t take initiative. It’s just never been about the deck.

I didn’t win the lottery. No angels showed up. Nothing huge happened. And yet every single one of these tiny miracles made me smile.

Why Did These Small Moments Affect Me So Much?Small moments like these affect us because most of us move through the day too fast to allow them to register. We’re checking off errands, replaying conversations, or worrying about what’s next. In the process we miss the majority of the good things happening all around us.

Take a minute to ask yourself honestly. Did someone smile at you today? Did someone let you merge in traffic, or did you grab the last package of pre-sliced turkey at the deli counter? Chances are a few of these already happened and slid right past you.

It’s not that the Universe decided to start sending me tiny miracles out of nowhere. I think I simply became more present. Once I noticed that first few fortuitous moments, something in me reset to start catching the next one, and the one after that.

Is It Magic, Or Is It Your Brain?The reason you start noticing tiny miracles once you look for them is a real neurological function called the reticular activating system, or RAS. This is a network in the brainstem that filters what reaches your conscious awareness based on telling your brain what matters.

Humans want to be right, so we set that internal radar to collect evidence for whatever we already believe. Whatever you’re thinking about, you tend to see more of it. It’s the same reason you buy a red car and suddenly notice red cars everywhere.

Some call this the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, which is the sense that once you learn something new, it starts showing up constantly. It’s also known as the frequency illusion.

What’s actually happening is selective attention. Your brain flags the new thing as important and starts seeing it more frequently. This is also called a cognitive bias. There aren’t more red cars, you just notice them more often.

So it seems I’ve set my RAS for tiny miracles, and honestly, it’s been a lot of fun. Am I more supported by the Universe than I was before? Probably not. But I am noticing that I’m supported, and that is creating even more openness. That’s my new bias, and I’m sticking with it.

What would shift for you if you felt supported by the Universe and started collecting evidence that it was true?

We’re Always Collecting EvidenceYou always training your brain to notice whatever you expect, whether that expectation serves you or not. Some people wake up already braced for disappointment. They feel people let them down, life is hard, nobody appreciates them, and nothing works out. And their brain will faithfully collect evidence for exactly that, all day long.

But you can train your RAS to find positive evidence just as easily. Someone holds the door. A favorite song comes on and you catch yourself singing along. A cashier is unexpectedly friendly. A friend texts at exactly the right moment. String enough of these together and they add up to something real. You shift into a more open, more supported way of moving through your days.

My Experiment, and What ChangedI didn’t set out to prove anything with this. I never expected the Universe to hand me this many signs in a few short weeks. But by the third or fourth one, I stopped being surprised and started paying attention on purpose. That’s exactly how the RAS is supposed to work. Once I actively looked for tiny miracles, I found more of them.

One day last week I realized I’d woken up happy and stayed that way straight through until bedtime. That was new for me. I’m usually quick to spot whatever’s annoying me. Something is shifting.

If you’re over 50, you’re likely to notice this kind of thing more than a younger person would, simply because you’ve spent decades reading rooms, situations, and people. Your brain has stopped needing raw data to make sense of a moment and started leaning on pattern, context, and vibe instead.

What can feel like sudden intuition can be your brain matching this moment against thousands of moments you’ve already lived. That’s what I mean when I talk about midlife magic . It only comes with the miles, and with those miles comes a deeper appreciation for the little stuff that goes right.

What If the Magic Doesn’t Show Up?If you go looking for tiny miracles and nothing shifts, that’s not a sign you’re doing something wrong. More often, it’s a sign something is in the way. Many of us carry a protective heart wall, built from grief, disappointment, or old self-protection. Unfortunately, that can unconsciously block what tiny miracles need to get through, without you ever knowing it’s there.

That’s exactly what I’m addressing at a live Heart Wall Releasing event on July 29th, from 10–11:30am ET. It’s a gentle, remarkably effective meditation process. And it’s safe because your own inner wisdom guides the entire experience.

The investment is just $22, and I’m keeping the group small — limited to 10 women, with a few spots already claimed.

If you’ve been wondering whether a heart wall might be dimming your magic or getting in the way of something you desire, I’d love to guide you through it. Register now to grab your spot.

FAQ: Tiny Miracles – How to Start Noticing YoursWhat is a tiny miracle? A tiny miracle is a small, everyday moment of kindness, timing, or connection — a stranger’s compliment, a found coin, a call that arrives right on cue — that feels like more than chance and leaves you a little lighter.

Why am I suddenly noticing more good things happening to me? Once your brain flags something as meaningful, your reticular activating system (RAS) starts surfacing more of it in your awareness. You’re not attracting more good moments; you’re finally catching the ones that were already there.

What is the reticular activating system (RAS)? The RAS is a network in the brainstem that filters incoming information and decides what reaches your conscious attention, based largely on what you’ve told it matters.

What is the Baader-Meinhof phenomenon? Also called the frequency illusion, it’s the experience of suddenly noticing something everywhere right after you first become aware of it — like seeing red cars everywhere after buying one.

What is a heart wall, and how does it relate to noticing magic? A heart wall is a protective barrier around the heart, often built from grief, disappointment, or self-protection, that can block the openness needed to notice tiny miracles or invite in what you desire.

Key Takeaways – Where IS the Magic in All This?* Tiny miracles aren’t new; they’re likely happening around you already, and most get missed in the rush of a normal day. * Your reticular activating system will collect evidence for whatever you focus on, positive or negative, so choosing what to look for actually matters. * Noticing one tiny miracle tends to open the door to noticing the next one. * If the magic isn’t showing up for you lately, that’s not a personal failing. It may point to a heart wall quietly getting in the way. * The live Heart Wall Releasing event is July 29th, 10–11:30am ET, $22, 8 spots remain Register Here

What if your heart isn’t shut down to love at all? What if it’s being protected by something you can’t see?

If you’re a midlife woman wondering why you can’t find love, the answer isn’t always about the wrong partner or bad timing. It may be an invisible heart wall. You might have an energetic protection set up that’s kept you emotionally safe for years, but is now the very thing keeping you lonely.

You’ve read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Maybe even worked with an energy healer or therapist. And yet here you are, still single and wondering what’s not working.

After 20 years of coaching midlife women, I’ve noticed the same pattern over and over. It’s rarely about a lack of options or bad luck. Most of the time, my clients had no idea the wall was even there.

What a Heart Wall Actually IsDr. Bradley Nelson, creator of the Emotion Code, first encountered this phenomenon while working on his wife. He perceived something like a wall surrounding her heart. It wasn’t physical, but energetic.

Practitioner Robin Friedman later developed a guided meditation to help people find the wall and release it. I’ve used this method many times, with results that still surprise me.

A heart wall forms unconsciously, over years, as a way to survive heartbreak and emotional disappointment. It’s not a flaw or proof you did something wrong. It’s a protective structure you created, and like most protection, it can overstay its welcome.

How the Wall Forms in MidlifeBy midlife, most women have endured more than one heartbreak. A wall like this can build from one big heartbreak or from many smaller ones, layer by layer, from:

  • Repeated disappointment that leaves you feeling like you have a “bad picker”
  • A belief that your chance at love has already passed
  • Subtle grief around aging, or the sense that time is running out
  • Sheer exhaustion from the hoping-trying-disappointment cycle

None of this means you failed at romance. A heart wall is simply what’s left over when love goes wrong and self-preservation kicks in. Whether you’ve dated a little or been through three divorces, the wall can show up the same way. It doesn’t scale with how much heartbreak you’ve had, only with how much you needed to protect yourself from it.

The catch is you can’t selectively block pain and stay open to love at the same time. Protection and intimacy share the same doorway into your heart. Close it to one, and you close it to both.

Signs Your Heart Wall May Be ActivatedYou might be dealing with a heart wall if you notice yourself:

  • Feeling emotionally guarded even when things are going well
  • Consistently attracting partners who aren’t available
  • Feeling disconnected or unmoved even when someone genuinely nice shows interest
  • Saying “I want love” but resisting any action that would actually lead to it
  • Putting off dating altogether, even though you say you want a relationship

If a few of these sound familiar, that’s your signal you’ve been protecting yourself. Now the question is whether that protection still serves you.

It’s worth pausing on that question, because it’s not a yes-or-no answer. The wall that protected you at 30 may not fit who you are in midlife. What felt necessary after one heartbreak might now be standing between you and a different kind of partner who wouldn’t cause that same type of hurt.

Unfortunately, protection that was once accurate can become outdated without ever getting the update it requires.

The Heart Wall Meditation: What It’s For (and What It Isn’t)This is the part I want to be really clear about. The goal of this process isn’t to rip the wall down. It’s to become conscious of it, and choose from there. Awareness gives you the opportunity to DECIDE what you want to do.

In a relaxed, meditative state, you bring your awareness to your heart center and ask if a wall is present. If so, you ask to see it. People experience this differently. Some see brick or stone, others see glass, fog, wood, or something layered and mixed. I’ve even seen chains or a cage instead of a wall. There’s no one right image.

From there, you simply ask if it’s safe to take the wall down now? Occasionally, the answer is no and that’s useful information. You can try again another time. When the answer is yes, you then choose how it comes down. Most people take it all down, but sometimes I’ve had to take a second pass at it. Whatever happens is exactly what’s supposed to happen in that moment.

Some people feel immediate release. Others see the wall clearly but nothing shifts the first time. Neither outcome is wrong. This is a gentle process, not a one-time fix, and guided by your own inner wisdom. That’s what makes it so safe and simple to do.

Release the Wall But Keep DiscernmentThis is the piece people most often miss. Releasing a heart wall is not the same as throwing your heart wide open to anyone who shows interest.

You still need to hold your standards. If someone lies once, doesn’t pursue you consistently, cancels more than once, or doesn’t keep their word, that’s vital information about your date’s potential. Don’t let your heart override those glaring red flags because you feel more open now.

Your head and your heart are a stronger team than either one alone, and one without the other tends to lead right back to heartbreak.

Taking the wall down means it’s time to date more consciously and be more open. Stay aware, true to your boundaries, and decide who can earn access to you. This approach is far better than defaulting to either total protection and being shut down or total openness to anyone who shows interest.

This is really where the resistance tends to show up. You might ask yourself:

  • What if I open up and get hurt again?
  • What if I pick poorly again?
  • What if I’m too old or it’s just too late?
  • What if nothing changes?

These are fair questions, and I won’t pretend to know exactly how your story unfolds. However, if the wall has come down, that’s a sign you’re ready to work with these questions instead of avoiding them.

The wall did its job and you’re not erasing that. You’re upgrading it, replacing an automatic shutdown with a more conscious form of protection. That is your own clarity, judgment, and willingness to walk away when things aren’t right.

After going through this powerful, yet gentle visualization, most women feel a release, or at least lighter and more open to possibilities. Personally, I’ve had amazing results. And I’ve taken lots of women through this over the years with wonderful results.

I’m not saying they find love the next week, but they feel more at ease and comfortable with taking the steps to meet someone special.

Experience It for YourselfIf you’d like to be guided through this remarkable process rather than attempt it solo, I’m hosting a live 90-minute Heart Wall Meditation event:

Wednesday, July 29th, from 10-11:30 am ET on Zoom

There will be time afterward to talk about what came up and ask questions. It’s just $22, and there’s no replay, so it’s worth carving out the time to join live.

This meditation isn’t only for romantic blocks, either. The process doesn’t mention love. You set your own personal intention for the meditation. Women have used it for business growth, friendships, creative resistance, spiritual growth, or anywhere something invisible seems to be in the way.

I’m Ready to Release My Heart WallKey Takeaways* A heart wall is a normal, protective response to past heartbreak, not a personal flaw * You can’t selectively close your heart to pain while staying open to love; they share the same door * The goal of the heart wall meditation is awareness and conscious choice * Releasing the wall doesn’t mean abandoning discernment. Your boundaries still matter * Change may happen instantly, gradually, or over multiple sessions and all of these are normal

FAQWhat is a heart wall? A heart wall is an unconscious energetic barrier that forms around the heart as protection after emotional pain, first identified by Dr. Bradley Nelson, creator of the Emotion Code.

How do I know if I have a heart wall? Common signs include feeling emotionally guarded even in good circumstances, repeatedly attracting unavailable partners, feeling numb toward people who show genuine interest, and continually delaying efforts to date despite wanting a relationship.

Does removing a heart wall mean I’ll immediately find love? No. Removing a heart wall doesn’t guarantee an instant relationship. What shifts first is usually how you feel, such as lighter, more open, and more willing to be seen. That shift is what makes new possibilities available.

Can a heart wall meditation be used for things other than love? Yes. The same process can be applied to any area where you sense internal resistance, including business growth, friendships, or creative blocks.

Do I have to do anything with the wall once I see it? No. You can simply become aware of it without removing it. Awareness itself is valuable, and you can choose to take further action whenever it feels right.

Will taking down my heart wall make me less discerning about who I date? No. Releasing a heart wall doesn’t remove your judgment or standards — it removes an unconscious block. You still evaluate red flags, hold boundaries, and walk away from anyone who doesn’t earn your trust; you’re just no longer doing it from behind an automatic shutdown.

There’s no way self-care for women is one-size-fits-all. The good news is that your astrology chart maps out what actually works best for you.

Astrologer Danielle M. Nugent joined the Breathe, Love & Magic podcast to reframe astrology as a wellness tool rather than a fortune-telling device. She explains how your zodiac sign and corresponding element point to the specific practices that ground, restore, and recharge you.

What Does Self-Care for Women Look Like with Astrology?Danielle’s approach relies on your zodiac sign. Instead of looking for predictions, she asks what a person needs to feel grounded, balanced, and feel a sense of well-being. Astrology becomes a tool for self-understanding on every level including emotional, physical, and spiritual. It adds real insight into how you’re wired and what helps you thrive, especially once you know your element.

Every zodiac sign falls into one of four categories including earth, air, fire, or water. Each one carries distinct needs for managing stress, avoiding burnout, and recharging.

What Self-Care Practices Match Each Astrological Element?Earth Signs: Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, typically work too hard, taking on responsibilities until they run themselves into the ground. They recharge through grounding. This means time outdoors, nourishing meals, and the simple act of cleaning and organizing. As Danielle puts it, “outer order creates inner calm.”

Water Signs: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, are the empaths, absorbing everyone else’s emotional baggage until they lose track of where their feelings end and others’ begin. Your self-care comes through disconnection.

For example, stepping away from people, having a good cry (which can be genuinely therapeutic for this group), and spending time near water. If you can’t get to a lake, or the ocean, just take a shower.

Fire Signs: Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius, are the movers and shakers, carrying big energy that needs an outlet. They often reach burn out in two ways: 1) Lacking inspiration, or 2) Saying yes to everything without checking in with themselves first.

The fix is movement like working out. But passion projects and anything that lets the inner flame burn productively can help. Danielle compares fire signs to the Energizer Bunny – built to keep going. However, you need to take intentional pit stops and ask yourself, “How am I doing?”

Air Signs: Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius, are the intellects, thriving on conversation and ideas. They burn out by living too much in their heads, forgetting they have bodies, and consuming too much news and social media.

Restoration comes through unplugging from screens, having meaningful conversations, journaling, or simply talking a thought through out loud.

Why Self-Care for Women Matters More in a Chaotic WorldOne reason why people love astrology is that many are searching for peace amid global chaos. Astrology offers a way to look inward when the outer world feels unpredictable. “I can’t control the world,” Danielle says, but she can control how she reacts to it as long as she understands herself.

This is where good astrology departs from the version most people grew up with. I shared my own history with predictive astrology. Two different astrologers told me in my 30s that marriage wasn’t in the cards.

Yet, I went on to marry and have been happily married for 26 years and counting. That distinction matters. Good predictive astrology isn’t about absolutes. It points to the energy at play and what it might look like. It’s like a weather forecast. Rain is possible, but you still decide whether to grab an umbrella or get wet and dance in it.

How Do the Sun, Moon, and Rising Signs Shape Your Wellness Style?Going one layer deeper, astrologers often talk about how these three signs affect your chart:

Sun sign: Representing your core essence and vitality, this sign is what most horoscope columns default to. It’s the brightest, most visible part of a person’s chart.
Rising sign: Your outward packaging, or how you show up and present yourself to the world.
Moon sign: Your emotional body, and the key to how you receive intuitive guidance.

How Does Your Moon Sign Reveal Your Intuitive Style?We took a moment to look at how your astrology impacts your intuition. Sorted by the same four elements, your moon sign reveals how you best receive inner guidance.

Fire Moons (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) are claircognizant people who simply know things, often physically. A run or workout unlocks clarity by pulling them out of their head and into their body.

Air Moons (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) receive intuition as ideas and flashes of insight; they’re the innovators and futurists, though they often dismiss their own intuitive hits as “just a thought” when it’s actually inner wisdom speaking through intellect.

Water Moons (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) pick up on the energy of a room the moment they walk in, and their intuition opens up through solitude and water, like showers, rivers, ponds, or the ocean.

Earth Moons (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) experience intuition as practical gut instinct. Some carry a tactile gift for psychometry, sensing information just by touching an object. Gardening and grounding rituals help them reconnect to that knowing.

A pattern emerges. Fire and air are “yang” elements that need active, energetic outlets to access intuition. On the other hand, water and earth are “yin” elements that need stillness and reflection. Knowing your moon’s element provides a personalized practice instead of forcing a intuitive style that’s not aligned with your energy.

A Permission Slip to Be YourselfMaybe the most powerful idea in the conversation is what Danielle calls a permission slip to be yourself. A water sign who cries easily isn’t flawed. That’s how your body processes and releases emotion. A fire sign who can’t sit still for traditional meditation doesn’t need to force it. Try a movement-based practice which will work better.

Astrology, used this way, isn’t about fitting into a box. It’s about understanding your sign and qualities and learning to work with it instead of against it.

Key Takeaways* Self-care for women works best when it’s tailored to how you’re individually wired, not applied as generic options that work for anyone. * Your zodiac element (earth, water, fire, or air) points to specific stress triggers and corresponding methods to recharge. * Earth signs need grounding and order; water signs need disconnection and release; fire signs need movement; and air signs need to unplug and talk things through. * Good predictive astrology describes energy and possibility, not fixed outcomes.
Your moon sign, read through its element, reveals how you best access intuition, whether that’s through movement, ideas, stillness, or instinct. * The goal isn’t to change who you are. It’s to better understand your natural patterns and build self-care around them.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is self-care for women according to astrology? It’s a personalized approach that uses your zodiac element to identify which practices actually restore you, rather than applying generic wellness advice that may not fit your energy.

What self-care does each zodiac element need? Earth signs need grounding through nature and order, water signs need disconnection and emotional release, fire signs need movement and passion outlets, and air signs need to unplug from screens and talk through their thoughts.

How can I find my moon sign? Your moon sign is calculated from your exact birth date, time, and location. A free online birth chart calculator or an astrologer can generate it for you.

What’s the difference between predictive and wellness-focused astrology? Predictive astrology forecasts events, while wellness-focused astrology — the approach used here — focuses on self-understanding and the specific practices that help you feel grounded, balanced, and well.

Is astrology a replacement for therapy or medical care? No. Astrology can be a useful self-understanding and wellness tool, but it’s not a substitute for professional medical or mental health care.

Some days just suck and that’s okay. Here’s what you can do about it with simple these mood elevators.

There will be times when a bad mood hangs around. Maybe something triggered you. It could be a cloudy day when you counted on sunshine. Or you might feel crummy or no reason at all. You just feel off.

[Join me at the Intuition Cafe – the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays every month from 10 -11am ET for just $11/session.]

Feeling DysregulatedA lot of people describe this as feeling dysregulated, which includes feeling anxious, irritable, overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or just plain blah.

The truth is there’s likely nothing truly wrong. You’ve had too much stress, too much news, too many demands. You haven’t had enough downtime or sleep. You’re overdue for some self-care.

The good news? You don’t need therapy, a silent meditation retreat, or an appointment of any kind to feel more at peace.

These five simple mood elevators are free, fast, and surprisingly powerful. I’m sharing them today because honestly, I’ve been in a mood myself for a few days and putting this together for you has already lifted my spirits.

  1. Start MovingOne of the fastest ways to lift your mood is to move your body, even for just a couple of minutes.

Go outside, especially if it’s sunny. Fresh air and natural light work quickly to shift your emotional state. But even a rainy day has its benefits. Rain actually reduces an overabundance of positive ions that are absorbed from electronics and screens.

Walking in the rain, taking a shower, or spending time near moving water like a stream or the ocean helps clear that energetic overload.

Other easy options:

  • Put on your favorite music and dance around the room for three minutes
  • Take a short walk around the block
  • Do a few minutes of stretching
  • Try just three yoga poses

Get physical, even briefly, and watch how quickly things start to shift

  1. Stop Arguing with RealityWhen you’re in a bad mood, your mind can drift to unhappy thoughts. Then you might think you shouldn’t feel this way. Or other people have it worse and even things aren’t really that bad.

But pushing your feelings away doesn’t make them go away. It suppresses them, and that’s not good for your emotional health long-term. The faster path to feeling more at peace is actually to own what you’re feeling.

Face it. Accept it. Don’t make yourself wrong for it.

When you acknowledge your feelings, even the uncomfortable ones, that’s often the quickest way to move through them and come out the other side.

  1. Find One Tiny Thing Going Your WayOkay, this might feel difficult, but the truth is EVERYTHING is not bad. Even on your worst days, something is working in your favor. You don’t need to drag out you gratitude journal or make a list of 20 things. Just noticing one positive thing will be a solid mood elevator.

Did you eat a good lunch? Find something on sale? Pay your bills and have a little left over? Hit a string of green lights? (One of my personal favorites!) These tiny moments count.

I’ll share one that happened to me just yesterday. A client I coached a few years ago texted to say he got engaged. He was a sweet guy who struggled with social anxiety around dating, and we worked together to find some simple solutions.

He sent me their happy engagement photo and said it wouldn’t have happened without me. I left him the most choked-up voicemail. That moment brought me completely to tears in the best heart-filled way.

Finding even one thing that’s going your way shifts your brain out of fight or flight mode and into a place of greater peace and joy. Try it right now.

  1. Call a Funny FriendAs I was sitting down to write this episode, my phone rang. It was my friend Tammy. She has this gift for finding the humor in everything. We ended up reminiscing about our 20s, when we’d get together every Thursday night to listen to new music and dance in my living room.

Laughing with someone who knows you well is one of the most a powerful mood elevators. If you have a friend with a good sense of humor, call her. Tell her your moody little story. Find the humor in it together.

Nostalgia is genuinely uplifting. That’s why people love a good stroll down memory lane. Childhood stories, old shared jokes, funny memories are all good stuff, and can absolutely raise your spirits.

Who could you call right now?

  1. Create a Moment of DelightThis is a fun one. What’s one small, easy thing that’s guaranteed to bring a little joy back into your day?

Here’s mine – mascara. I stopped wearing mascara during COVID. Who was I going to see? But this year I started putting it on again every single day, just for me.

When I catch myself in the mirror now, I smile. Those long dark lashes make me feel pretty and more youthful. That’s a genuine moment of delight, and it costs almost nothing.

Here’s another one. I recently discovered a brand of sugar-free chocolate made with allulose that tastes just like the real thing. No funny aftertaste, no compromise and only one carb! It’s called Goalz I’m not getting paid to say that, I just love it and had to share.

Your moment of delight might be an iced coffee, a hot scented bath, a funny cat video, drawing Zentangles, or cutting flowers from your garden to put on the kitchen table.

Whatever it is, do it now. Don’t wait until later. You deserve a moment of delight today.

Bonus: Ground Yourself and BreatheSometimes what you really need is to reconnect with the earth beneath your feet which is one of the most powerful mood elevators.

Try this: This is a three-minute practice. Close your eyes and imagine sending roots down from the soles of your feet, deep into the earth. Connect with the soil, stones, plants, and all the creatures. Acknowledge the four directions and all the elements. Say hello to the nature spirits. Thank Mother Earth for giving you a home for this life.

Then take three slow, deep breaths. With each inhale, draw earth energy back up through those roots, up through your feet, and into your body. Draw the energy all the way up through the top of your head. As that energy rises, picture each of your chakras lighting up in sequence from root to crown.

Notice how you feel afterward. This simple practice can open your energy field, deepen your breathing, and calm your nervous system. It can help you feel genuinely connected again. Your connection to the earth and nature is one of the most reliable paths to inner peace.

Key Takeaways* Feeling dysregulated or moody is normal. It doesn’t mean something is truly wrong. * Moving your body, even for just a few minutes, is one of the fastest ways to shift your emotional state. * Accepting your feelings rather than fighting them helps you move through them more quickly. * Gratitude doesn’t have to be a big practice. One good thing is enough to help shift your brain out of fight or flight mode. * Laughter and nostalgia are genuinely powerful mood elevators. Do not underestimate them. * Small moments of delight are available to you right now, today, at little to no cost. * Grounding with breathwork can reset your energy and restore a sense of peace in just a few minutes.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat does it mean to feel dysregulated? Feeling dysregulated means your nervous system is out of balance. You might feel anxious, irritable, emotionally reactive, exhausted, or unable to focus. It’s often caused by too much stress, too little rest, or sensory overload from things like news and social media. It’s not a clinical diagnosis, it simply means your system needs some care and reset.

What are the fastest ways to lift your mood naturally? The fastest natural mood boosters include moving your body (even briefly), going outside, calling a funny friend, and finding one small thing to feel grateful for. These methods work because they shift your nervous system out of threat mode without requiring any appointments, products, or significant time.

Why does changing your physical state help your mood? Your body and mind are deeply connected. Physical movement releases tension, shifts your energy, and triggers neurochemical changes that help you feel better. Even three minutes of dancing, a short walk, or standing in sunlight can have a noticeable effect on how you feel emotionally.

Is it okay to just sit with a bad mood? Yes, and in fact, accepting your feelings rather than fighting them is often the most effective approach. Suppressing emotions keeps them stuck. Acknowledging them without judgment allows them to move through you naturally.

What is grounding and how does it help emotional well-being? Grounding is a practice of consciously connecting your energy to the earth. It can involve visualization, breathwork, or walking barefoot outside. Grounding helps regulate your nervous system, deepen your breathing, and restore a sense of calm and inner peace. It’s one of the best mood elevators!

How can I feel more at peace on a difficult day? Start small. Move your body, accept how you’re feeling without judgment, or find one tiny thing going your way. You might reach out to someone who makes you laugh, treat yourself to one small moment of delight, or take a few slow deep breaths. You don’t need to do all six. Even one can begin to shift your mood.

Now you know that feeling moody from time to time is part of being human. And, the good news is that you have more tools than you might think to feel more at peace and most of them are easy and already within reach.

You ask AI what’s the best brand of supplement, how to handle a tricky conversation, or whether to take the job. But what about your own inner wisdom? When was the last time you paused and asked yourself first?

I’m not picking on AI or telling you not to use it. However, it’s important to tune into your inner wisdom, so it doesn’t slip into the background from lack of use. It’s like use it or lose it baby.

Why We’re Outsourcing More Decisions Than EverPeople have always looked outside themselves for guidance to experts, religious leaders, therapists, coaches, and even psychics, and astrologers. That’s nothing new. But AI has changed the speed of that outsourcing dramatically.

Author, entrepreneur, and podcast host Tim Ferriss recently shared a transparent peak into his business. His book sales dropped over 40% in 2025 and a jaw-dropping 50% again so far in 2026. His explanation? People are skipping how-to books and long- form YouTube videos in favor of instant AI answers.

This isn’t just a publishing problem. It’s a signal. We are increasingly moving away from anything that takes time. For decades we’ve had drive-through coffee, apps for finding love, and now there’s telehealth calls.

But what are we missing when we skip just sitting with something and taking our time with it? Are we handing over big life decisions to something that compiles other people’s experiences rather than relying on your own?

The Hidden Cost of Decision FatigueResearch suggests the average adult makes 35,000 decisions every single day. Just ordering a coffee involves cup size, hot or cold, caffeine, sweetener, milk type, and flavorings. No wonder we’re exhausted!

Decision fatigue is real, and that overload pushes many of us to skip the natural process of seeking inner guidance, especially for big issues. When you’re depleted, it makes sense to look for something to ease the burden. AI is right there, fast and seemingly limitless.

But that speed has a cost in terms of trusting yourself and your own inner knowing.

Information and Inner Wisdom Are Not the SameThis is the heart of the matter. Information is fast, external, and tells you what other people know. AI gather this information and can deliver it in seconds.

On the other hand, inner wisdom is personal, earned through your lived experience, and requires time, awareness, and reflection to emerge. That is something AI will NEVER provide.

For thousands of years, wisdom required effort. People took on apprenticeships, learned religious or spiritual practices, spent time in self-reflection, experienced trial and error and these paths often took years.

But today, information arrives instantly. The question is are you trading the slow accumulation of wisdom for the quick hit of information? And what might you have lost as a result?

4 Things AI Cannot Do For YouAI is a genuinely powerful tool for brainstorming, research, and saving time. But there are things it simply cannot tell you:

  • Which opportunity feels right for your life
  • Whether a relationship is for your highest good
  • What your soul is nudging you toward
  • What you truly want in your heart of hearts

The danger isn’t that AI will replace your intuition. The danger is that you’ll skip it even after gathering information to make your final decision. This will eventually erode trust in yourself over time.

A Personal Story About Self-TrustAt the end of my corporate career, I took a layoff package instead of taking a position in another division of General Foods. That place was draining me of my life force.

In fact, I had a recurring dream that ended one night with coming home from a business trip to find my apartment emptied out. The only thing remaining was a burned-out neon clock that had stopped working. This same clock was in my real life office. Finally, I understood I was burned out, time was up, and so I walked away.

Leaving with a seven-month package, I had no plan except talking to vendors, peers, and marketing executives. I had my astrology chart done and read What Color Is Your Parachute? which was a popular self-help book on finding work you love. None of it told me what would come next.

Looking back, what I find interesting is that I didn’t discover my next chapter because I found the answer. My future unfolded because I gave it room to emerge.

Within six months, former colleagues started calling asking for freelance help. That became a twelve-year career freelancing for big marketing agencies with brands like AT&T, Chase Bank, and Jack Daniels. The work was on my own terms, often just four days a week.

My father joked with his friends that I was semi-retired because of that schedule.

That’s the difference between information and wisdom. Information shows us possibilities. Wisdom helps you recognize which possibility is right for you. And the more you connect with your intuition, the more you trust yourself because of it.

Midlife Wisdom Is PowerfulBy midlife, you have decades of experience. You’ve survived heartbreaks, celebrated successes, made mistakes, and recognized patterns. You’ve honed your intuition through living, day by day and have built trust in yourself. Yet, most women seriously underestimate how important and valuable that truly is.

I worked with a 61-year-old client who had been job hunting for a year. Convinced that ageism was closing every door, her beliefs were crowding out the value of her own qualifications and experience.

After the first session working on shifting those beliefs, she recognized how much she’d been doubting herself. She chose to stop focusing on what others thought of her and rely on her own earned wisdom. Seven days later she had three interviews. Within two months she landed exactly the job she wanted.

It wasn’t her circumstances that changed, but her relationship to her own inner wisdom.

How to Use Both AI and Your Inner WisdomYou don’t have to choose between AI and intuition. Use them based on what each one does best:

  • Use AI to gather information
  • Use your mind to analyze the possibilities
  • Use your heart to understand what things mean
  • Use your intuition for personalized guidance of the highest nature

Over the next few weeks, when something comes up, consider turning inward first. You may already know your next step. But even if you tune in after you gather information, that slowing down will help you know what is for your highest good.

Key Takeaways* AI provides information; only you can access your inner wisdom * Decision fatigue makes it tempting to outsource even deeply personal decisions * Your accumulated life experience is a resource no tool can replicate * Slowing down creates the space for wisdom to emerge * Trusting yourself is a practice that builds over time

Frequently Asked Questions – Inner Wisdom Vs. AIWhat is inner wisdom and how is it different from information? Inner wisdom is the personal knowing that comes from lived experience, reflection, and self-awareness. Information is external knowledge that can be quickly retrieved from sources like AI. Wisdom is earned; information is accessed.

Can AI help with personal decisions? AI can help you research options, brainstorm possibilities, and organize your thinking. But it cannot tell you what feels right for your specific life, values, or soul path. That discernment comes from within.

How do I access my inner wisdom? Start by slowing down. Ask yourself: What do I already know? What feels true to me? What would I do if no one else’s opinion were available? Write down what comes up. Many people find insights arrive in quiet moments — in the shower, on a walk, or during meditation.

Why do women in midlife struggle to trust their own inner wisdom? Many spiritually aware women in midlife believe they need one more course, certification, or expert opinion before they can trust themselves. In reality, decades of lived experience have already built a deep well of wisdom — it simply needs to be accessed and trusted.

What is the risk of relying too heavily on AI? The risk isn’t that AI will replace your intuition. The risk is that the habit of seeking instant external answers means you stop pausing long enough to hear your own inner guidance at all.

It’s gardening season again! Have you ever considered talking to plants and wondered if they’d respond? That’s what you’ll discover in this post – surprising messages and insights from the plants in my garden.

I’m not one of those people who can’t wait to get my hands in the dirt. I don’t love digging holes or weeding. I do enjoy planting small seedlings and flowers because that goes quickly and you see fast results. Hey, that’s who I am. I love fast results!

But there’s another reason I look forward to gardening season and one that has nothing to do with the physical labor. I talk to my plants. And, they talk back.

Dahlias Started It AllThe first time a plant talked to me was when I bought my first home which was a townhouse. I filled the tiny front porch with colorful flowers and a pot on every step leading to the front door. As I removed the first dahlia from its starter pot, I heard a voice…

Plant me in a good-sized pot because I’m going to grow really BIG!

The voice was high-pitched, gleeful, and absolutely adorable. I was totally shocked. A little freaked out but pleasantly surprised. That was my first experience of clairaudience and talking to plants and that’s how I started having little chats with them.

How I Connect with Garden SpiritsI do get a thrill from seeing plants grow, filling garden boxes, and producing vegetables for our meals. But besides the growth, I look forward to talking with the plants and nature spirits. It’s better to connect while it’s warm and plants are green and growing, rather than dormant in the winter cold.

I do my best to start every gardening session by sitting quietly and connecting with the spirits of the garden. I call forth the plant divas, the overlighting land angel, and the local elementals.

With my eyes closed and palms up on my lap, I open to these energies. I often see energy swirls behind my eyelids and a big smile plants itself on my face.

Then I move into gratitude and ask to communicate, cooperate, collaborate, and co-create with the garden spirits and plants. I call this the “four C’s”, words that came to me naturally in that space of connecting.

I’ll admit I sometimes forget and start pulling weeds before I’ve connected. That’s when I stop, sit down, and begin the ritual properly. It does amaze me how easily I can slip back and forth between a human doing and a human being.

What the Squash & Cucumbers Told MeOn one particular Sunday, I completed the four C’s and got ready to plant squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes. I felt strongly that the squash and cucumber plants wanted to communicate, so before pulling them from their starter pots, I sat with them and asked if they had something to tell me.

They did.

The squash told me not to plant the seedlings too close together because they need space. The cucumbers explained they need less water than the squash. Both were happy about growing up the wire fence, which keeps their leaves off the dirt and minimizes disease.

But what really surprised me was the squash plant’s sheer enthusiasm. The voice I heard was exuberant and joyful. That expression of excitement was absolutely thrilling to receive.

After planting, I moved on to weeding. Grass tends to sneak into the beds and the roots hold on tight. As I struggled, a thought came to me. Apologize for removing them and ask them to let go easily. So I did. They came out of the dirt with ease, eliminating the struggle. Who would have thought to ask?

String Beans WhispersYears ago, my string bean plants were growing like wildfire — vibrantly green, climbing their strings like Jack’s beanstalk. But there were no flowers, which meant no beans.

I decided to ask the plants. They didn’t have much to say at first, but then I heard two whispered words: “wood ashes.” I had no idea what that meant, so I Googled it.

Turns out, over-fertilized plants get too much nitrogen, which makes them grow wildly but prevents flowers and fruit. As luck would have it, we’d just had a fire, so I swept up the ashes and sprinkled them around the plants.

A few weeks later, the vines were loaded with flowers and we ended up with a bumper crop. The plants know what they need.

Basil Plants Taught Me Not to DoubtOne summer my two basil plants were being attacked by insects I couldn’t see. They looked a bit dreary. I bought organic spray and an extra plant just in case. Then in July, all three took off like crazy, turning into thriving bushes over three feet tall.

In August, as I harvested basil to make pesto, the plants spoke: “You were worried about us but we turned out well. You doubted our ability. Never doubt us again.”

The following summer the exact same thing happened. But this time I knew better and once again, they flourished.

How Arugula Encouraged Self TrustThe last story has to do with arugula plants. This plant does better in cooler weather. But they will grow all summer. I wanted to cut them back, so they could grow fresh leaves. They were getting bitter as I tried to keep up with cutting off the flowers which is when they go to seed.

I had the presence of mind to ask them, “How should I trim you?” What they whispered came quickly and took me by surprise. I heard, “Go with your own instinct and we’ll guide your hand with the scissors.” How interesting.

This was yet another message about trusting myself from an unexpected source. I talk a lot about self-trust with regard to Midlife Magic. It’s needed if you want to access your intuition and inner magic.

Nature Is Open to PartnershipWhat I’ve learned in my garden is that nature is more than happy to work with you in partnership. All that’s required to connect with this higher vibrational consciousness is the willingness to ask for their guidance or input, and then take the time to listen.

Nature is eager to open up and work with you. This is your invitation to discover another world that’s magical and fun. You might find the gleeful energy of dahlias, the exuberance of squash, or a basil plant that needs you to believe in it. One thing is for sure, it will be a journey filled with wonder and surprises.

Key Takeaways* You don’t need to be a lifelong intuitive to connect with plants. The conversation can start simply, with curiosity and a quiet moment. * Ask before you act. Whether planting, pruning, or weeding, pausing to check in with your plants can yield surprisingly practical guidance. * Nature communicates in many ways. A whisper, a feeling, a knowing, an image, or sudden thought and all of it counts. * The four C’s framework, communicate, cooperate, collaborate, and co-create, is a simple ritual for opening to garden spirits. * Your doubt blocks the connection. The basil knew about my doubt before I did.

FAQsDo I need to be psychic to talk to my plants? Not at all. Back in the 1990s it took me seven years of dedicated practice to connect with spirit. Today, many people find the connection comes quickly with only a little practice. Many believe this is because of the higher frequency humans now experience, which makes tuning into plant consciousness easier than you might imagine.

What does plant communication actually feel like? It may not be a loud or obvious voice. It can be subtle like a whisper, a feeling, a knowing, or a visual impression in your mind’s eye. It might even feel like something you made up. All of it counts.

How do I get started? Find a quiet moment with your garden, a houseplant, or even flowers on your porch. Calm your breathing. Ask your angels, spirit guides, or ancestors who gardened for help. Then sit quietly and expect an answer. If nothing comes, try again later.

Can this work with indoor houseplants too? Absolutely. You don’t need a full garden. A single plant on your windowsill is a perfect place to begin.

What if I feel silly talking to plants? That’s exactly how I felt the first time a dahlia spoke to me. The silliness passes quickly when they start talking back. And it’s so much fun!

The June 2026 planetary parade happens on June 17th, when five planets align in the night sky in a formation visible to the naked eye. No equipment needed, just a clear horizon and a few minutes after sunset. It’s a genuinely rare sight.

But if you’re a woman in midlife, this particular planetary parade carries a resonance beyond astronomy. Each of the five planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) symbolize a quality your inner authority needs. That includes clear thinking, self-worth, courage, expanded vision, and the wisdom only lived experience can build.

That last one is the one most midlife women consistently underestimate in themselves. This post is about the parade and what it reflects back to you.

Why the June Planetary Parade Stands OutWhile planetary alignments happen throughout the year, there’s something undeniably captivating about seeing them all at once. It’s as if the heavens rearrange themselves to highlight something everyone needs to see.

If you’re someone who finds meaning in the natural world, this kind of visual alignment is hard to ignore. Many people view planetary gatherings as a moment when different energies seem to work in concert rather than pulling in separate directions.

Whether you take that literally or simply as a useful metaphor, the invitation is the same. Imagine what it would be like if your different parts could come together into harmony too?

Think about how many different women live inside you at once: the wise woman, the dreamer, the intuitive, the practical one, the adventurer, the responsible one, and the one who just wants to rest.

For eons, women have been taught to prioritize everyone else’s needs and ignore their own inner wisdom. This planetary gathering can serve as a symbolic invitation to bring all those scattered pieces back to center.

This celestial moment also speaks to something many women experience as they move through midlife and beyond. There’s a growing desire to trust yourself more deeply. To rely on that inner wisdom and feel genuinely self-sufficient and empowered.

You’ve spent decades gathering this wisdom. You’ve navigated relationships, raised families, built careers, and faced disappointments. Maybe you reinvented yourself more than once and learned to keep going when life didn’t follow the plan you imagined. Yet, many women still find themselves looking outside for answers, wondering if someone else knows more than they do.

That’s why this planetary parade offers such a striking and important perspective.

What Each Planet BringsEach of the five planets carries a quality your inner authority needs:

  • Mercury represents clear thinking and honest self-reflection
  • Venus reminds you of your worth and invites you to treat yourself with the same kindness you freely offer everyone else
  • Mars brings the courage to act on what you already know instead of endlessly second-guessing yourself
  • Jupiter expands your vision and encourages you to believe more is possible than you’ve imagined
  • Saturn contributes the wisdom that comes from lived experience — the kind no book, class, or expert can hand you

That’s a complete picture. And if you’re honest, those are qualities most women over 50 have been quietly developing for years, often without giving themselves any credit.

The Heart of the LionNow add Regulus to the mix. The brightest star in the constellation Leo and referred to as the Heart of the Lion, Regulus has long been associated with leadership, courage, and sovereignty. Those words might sound grand, but they point to something practical.

Your inner authority is simply the ability to listen to your own knowing and trust it. Honor what feels true for you, even without outside approval.

Many women were taught to be considerate, accommodating, and responsible and those qualities have real value. But there comes a point when inner wisdom asks for more. In midlife, it becomes not just possible but necessary to become the authority in your own life.

A lion doesn’t ask others where to go next. It trusts its instincts and moves with confidence. And here’s the thing about confidence. You may assume it comes first and action follows. In reality, it works the other way around.

When you listen to an inner nudge, follow your curiosity, or make a decision you’ve been avoiding, you discover you’re capable of navigating whatever comes next. That’s how self-trust is actually built.

Women often arrive at this stage believing they need one more answer before they can move forward. Maybe one more book, workshop, or sign. Meanwhile, your inner wisdom has been patiently waiting to be heard.

See the Bigger PictureLater in June, the New Moon darkens the sky enough for the Milky Way to emerge. Think of this as the final note in the month’s celestial progression. First, align with yourself. Next, trust your wisdom. And finally, see the bigger picture.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You only need to trust the next step and allow the larger picture to unfold.

The wisdom you’ve been searching for isn’t out there somewhere. It’s already present within you, whispering encouragement toward your next step. Decades of living, the mistakes, the victories, the setbacks, and the insights gathered in ways no shortcut could replicate. That’s your authority. It’s always been yours.

To me, that’s the gift of inner authority. Even without all the answers, you trust yourself enough to take the next step and move forward anyway. And that, my friends, is nothing short of extraordinary and yet another aspect of midlife magic.

Key Takeaways* The June 17th planetary parade has five planets visible to the naked eye simultaneously. That’s a rare astronomical event and a powerful metaphor for inner alignment. * Each planet in the parade represents a quality of inner authority: Mercury (clarity), Venus (self-worth), Mars (courage), Jupiter (expanded vision), Saturn (lived wisdom). * Inner authority is the practical ability to trust your own knowing, even without outside approval. This is symbolized in this post by the star Regulus, part of the Leo constellation that is also referred to as the Heart of the Lion. * Self-trust isn’t built by waiting until you feel confident. It grows by taking action on what you already know. * Women in midlife already possess the wisdom they’re searching for which has been shaped by decades of navigating relationships, reinvention, and lived experience.

FAQsDo I need any special equipment to see the planetary parade on June 17th? No equipment is needed. All five planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) are visible to the naked eye after sunset. Find a spot with a clear horizon and give your eyes a few minutes to adjust. Find details on exactly when and where to look on the NASA site.

What makes this planetary alignment different from others? Five planets visible simultaneously in a clear line across the sky is genuinely uncommon. While alignments happen throughout the year, this one is paired with Regulus and later the Milky Way, making June a full month of striking sky events rather than a single night.

I’m not into astrology. Can I still get something from this? Yes, the planetary meanings here are metaphor, not forecast. You don’t need to believe the planets influence your life to find the reflection useful. Think of it as a visual framework for qualities like courage, clarity, and wisdom you’re likely already developing.

Why does inner authority feel harder to access in midlife? Because the habits of earlier life run deep. Prioritizing others, seeking external validation, and deferring to experts become ingrained over decades. Midlife loosens some of those external demands, which creates both the space and the invitation to finally turn inward.

How do I actually start building more self-trust? Start with one small action. Follow an inner nudge, make a decision you’ve been postponing, or trust your read on a situation without polling others first. Self-trust is built through practice, not through waiting until you feel ready.

Something shifts in midlife that’s hard to explain until it happens to you. You start noticing signs and catch on to the meaning of synchronicities faster and more often.

For example, it might be song lyrics that answer the question on your mind. A person you randomly think about suddenly texts. The book that suddenly falls off the shelf has a message in the title.

You might see repeating symbols, angel numbers, or get tiny nudges. Sometimes you encounter strange timing that feels too precise to dismiss. That’s not a bunch of coincidences.

Spiritual AntennaWhat I’ve discovered is that midlife seems to heighten your awareness of synchronicities and intuitive guidance. It’s as if your spiritual antenna gets stronger with age, experience, and a deeper trust in yourself.

A few years ago, during a difficult period when I was struggling emotionally, I began working with a body-centered healing practice called the Power of Gesture. The idea was simple. Create a physical movement that embodied the emotional state you wanted to experience more fully.

The gesture I created became what I called the “Sunflower Pose“. Standing with my feet slightly apart, I slowly raised my hands from prayer position at my heart up toward the sky, opening my arms wide as if embracing the sun.

As I did this, I spoke these words:. “I surrender to my higher self and open to the divine flow of creativity, abundance, joy.” It sounds simple, but something profound shifted.

Soon afterward, sunflowers started appearing everywhere. In grocery stores, online, a card picked from an oracle cards. Even on random signs and advertisements.

Curious, I looked up the spiritual symbolism of sunflowers and was pleasantly surprised. Sunflowers represent joy, resilience, optimism, abundance, and spiritual truth. That’s exactly what I’d been seeking.

The synchronicities felt affirming, like the Universe itself was responding or my higher self was sending a message. That experience changed how I understand synchronicities, midlife and the magic that is part of it.

Midlife and IntuitionAt this stage of life, women often become far more intuitive because you now know yourself so much better. You care less about what others think, spend less time people pleasing, and become more aligned and true to yourself.

Your discernment sharpens and your inner authority grows stronger. And because of that, you begin noticing the subtle messages more frequently, that were probably there all along.

That’s what Midlife Magic means to me, that guidance appears magically as needed and you can rely on your intuition more than ever. This is a phase when you can become deeply attuned to your own inner knowing.

I’ve experienced this countless times since entering my fifties. Once, during a energy clearing session, I was guided to seek help from the ancient Roman goddess Abundantia, whom I had never heard of before.

Over the next few weeks, references to her appeared everywhere. A friend happened to own ancient coins with her image. I discovered I already had a picture of her tucked away in my home with no memory of acquiring it. Then I randomly pulled her card from a goddess oracle deck.

Ok that was not a series of simple coincidences.

The Meaning of SynchronicitiesI see them as confirmation. Little clues that remind you that you are supported, guided, and moving in the right direction. They can give you a heads up that something important is happening and it’s time to pay attention.

One thing that’s good to know is that magical occurrences aren’t always big or dramatic, but they still matter. One afternoon, after a deep conversation with a friend about life and uncertainty, we walked back to the cars together. I’m not sure why, but I looked down at one point and saw a four-leaf clover right at my feet.

That tiny moment stands out because it provided a sign that all is good. After all, four-leaf clovers are known for being lucky. That left me with such a good feeling about everything we discussed.

That’s the thing about synchronicities. The more you notice, the more they seem to appear. Maybe the universe or your guides, angels, or even your higher self are always leaving clues. In midlife, that’s the time women become wise enough and brave enough to trust the signs and follow them.

If this resonates, I invite you to be open to and notice the synchronicities that are happening all around you. They have a message for you and are there to gently guide you on life’s path.

Key Takeaways* Midlife often heightens intuition and spiritual awareness. * Synchronicities offer meaningful guidance, rather than just being random coincidences. * Life experience strengthens discernment, self-trust, and inner knowing. * Heeding signs, symbols, and intuitive nudges can reduce self-doubt. * Midlife magic is about perception, intuition, alignment, and awareness. * Tiny synchronicities can be just as meaningful as dramatic ones. * The more open you are to noticing synchronicities, the more often they seem to appear.

FAQsWhat is the meaning of synchronicities? Synchronicities are meaningful coincidences that seem to carry guidance, confirmation, or deeper personal significance. Many people experience them as signs from the universe, spirit, their higher self, or intuitive wisdom.

Why do synchronicities seem stronger in midlife? Midlife often brings greater self-awareness, emotional maturity, and trust in your intuition. As women become less focused on external validation, they become more perceptive of subtle signs and inner guidance.

Is noticing signs spiritual or psychological? It can be viewed either way. Some people see synchronicities as spiritual guidance, while others see them as increased awareness and pattern recognition. Either perspective can still provide comfort, clarity, and meaning.

What counts as a synchronicity? Things that come to your awareness repeatedly like symbols, chance encounters, meaningful timing, vivid dreams, intuitive hits, songs with perfect messages. It might also include finding objects at meaningful moments, or thinking of someone right before they contact you.

How can I become more aware of synchronicities? Set an intention to notice them. Slow down, stay present, and pay attention to repeated themes, symbols, or feelings. Keeping track with a journal also helps you recognize patterns over time.

Can synchronicities help with decision-making? Many people experience synchronicities as confirmation that they are moving in the right direction. While they shouldn’t replace practical judgment, they can strengthen self-trust and intuitive clarity.

What is “Midlife Magic”? Midlife magic is how I define the increased sense of intuition, alignment, inner wisdom, and meaningful connection many women experience as they hit their 40s and 50s and beyond. Many find themselves going deeper into self-trust, authenticity, and inner authority.

You’re ready to throw in the towel, but you feel torn. You think, “I want to quit” but that seems terrible. What does that say about you if you just walk away? Torturous thoughts creep in like leaving is a huge sign of weakness. Or that you don’t have what it takes to stick with something.

But what if that urge to walk away isn’t a weakness at all? What if it’s your inner wisdom trying to get your attention?

Quitter Is the Wrong LabelLabeling yourself a quitter might not be valid. Sometimes a situation simply isn’t a good fit, or the timing is off. The opportunity might not be for your highest good, and perhaps something better is waiting once you become available. But how do you know the difference?

Here’s the honest answer – it depends. No blanket statement works for every situation. This is a place where trusting yourself and your inner knowing is essential.

Think about if you’re the kind of person who is always chasing the newest thing, abandoning what you’re working on for the latest shiny object. That might be a sign to hang in a bit longer and give what you’re doing a fair shake.

On the other hand, maybe you’re the type who holds on longer than makes sense because of security, loyalty, or a sense of duty. Perhaps you have fear about letting go. You have plenty of stick-to-itiveness, maybe too much for your own good.

Sticking with something and seeing it through does build a sense of certainty that you gave it a fair shot. It can develop strength and follow-through.

Yet, sometimes you need to leave because a better opportunity is waiting. It could be one you’ll miss if you stay too long in a place that isn’t right for you.

Questions Worth AskingBefore making the call to stay or go, take time to reflect and ask yourself:

  • Have I really given this my all?
  • Do I want to quit because I’m bored?
  • Do I want to leave because I fear it won’t work out?
  • Am I recognizing a pattern that’s worth examining?
  • Did I just lose steam on this idea?
  • Am I hitting my head against a wall and need to walk away?
  • Am I being stubborn and hanging in there because I don’t know what else to do?
  • Is this situation eroding my self-confidence and making me feel smaller?

Your answers will tell you a great deal. And when you’ve tried everything, talked to experts, friends, family, and adjusted your approach, but things still aren’t moving forward, that’s important information.

It can be a sign that what you’re working on is out of alignment with your highest good, no matter how much you want it to work.

This could apply to a job, a business idea, a relationship, a course, or even a habit you’ve been trying to build. When your gut is telling you clearly and consistently that something isn’t working, it’s worth listening.

Real-Life Examples of Conscious QuittingThe Landmark Seminar

Years ago, I completed the EST training, now called Landmark, a two-weekend personal development workshop. Afterward, I joined an 8–10 week seminar with my cousin to continue the work. Each week we’d gather to collaborate on a long-term group project.

The problem? A lot of people stopped showing up. And instead of focusing on the work, the group leaders spent most of every 90-minute meeting scolding the people who were there about the people who weren’t. The leadership had taken their eyes off the ball, and nothing was getting accomplished.

By the sixth week, my intuition was screaming at me to stop wasting my time. So, I left. The following week, members of the group called me a quitter. My cousin defended me and then quit herself since it all seemed ridiculous.

Was I a quitter? No. I left because the group hadn’t kept its commitment to the participants. Leaving was the right call.

Two Decades of Coaching

I’ve tried a variety of coaching niches over the years, from dating coaching, marketing coaching, life coaching, and the most recent – intuitive coaching. I stuck with dating coaching the longest, over 20 years, with genuine success and many positive milestones.

But with the other niches, my inner knowing consistently nudged me to move on when nothing was clicking. It would show up as a pit in my stomach, or an intuitive sense that things weren’t headed in the right direction. Most of those ideas simply didn’t fly, so I dropped them.

Does that make me a quitter? Or does that make me a smart businesswoman who chose to cut her losses and try something new? I’d argue it’s the latter every time.

How to Trust Your Inner WisdomThe only reliable way to navigate the stay-or-go question is to look within. Beyond the reflection questions suggested above, you can also try sitting quietly for a few minutes of stillness and ask yourself sincerely “Is it for my highest good to stay with this situation?”

Then really listen and pay attention to what comes to you. Some answers arrive as a clear sense of knowing. Others show up as a feeling in your body, such as tension, relief, heaviness, or lightness. Over time, you’ll learn to recognize the signals that are uniquely yours.

Your intuition won’t lead you astray. The more you practice listening to it, the more trustworthy it becomes. Taking care of yourself, setting boundaries and knowing what is right and not right for you, that my friend is something to feel very proud of.

Quitting after making a conscious choice is an empowering step. And, relying on your intuition and trusting your inner wisdom make a huge difference in the way you live your life. That’s what makes you a wise woman.

Key Takeaways* Leaving isn’t the same as quitting. When a decision to walk away is conscious and well-considered, it’s an act of self-awareness, not weakness. * Know your patterns. If you tend to abandon things quickly, stay a little longer. If you tend to hold on past the point of reason, give yourself permission to let go. * Ask the hard questions first. Reflect before deciding, make sure you’ve genuinely tried, not just gone through the motions. * Your body knows. Persistent gut feelings, dread, and a sense of stagnation are important and valid data points. * Quitting what doesn’t fit creates space for what does. Walking away from the wrong thing is often what makes room for the right thing.

Frequently Asked QuestionsHow do I know if I’m quitting too soon or holding on too long? It usually comes down to your natural tendencies. If you’re someone who chases novelty, lean toward staying longer. If you’re someone who honors commitment to a fault, give yourself more permission to leave. The reflection questions listed above are a good starting point for sorting this out.

Isn’t quitting a sign of failure? Not when it’s a deliberate, thoughtful decision. Failing and quitting are different things. Failure is a result; quitting, done consciously is a choice. Many highly successful people have walked away from things that weren’t working in order to redirect their energy toward what was.

What if other people judge me for leaving? They might. In the Landmark example above, group members considered me a quitter. But other people’s judgments don’t make them right. You are the one living your life. You have the fullest picture of your situation, your needs, and what is right you.

Can quitting actually be good for my well-being? Absolutely. Staying in situations that are fundamentally wrong for you out of guilt, fear, or stubbornness takes a real toll. Releasing what isn’t working reduces stress, preserves your energy, and often opens the door to something better.

How do I stop feeling ashamed about a decision to leave? Reframe it. Walking away from what isn’t right for you isn’t something to be ashamed of. Instead, it’s something to feel proud of. It means you know yourself, you’re setting boundaries, and you’re taking care of your own well-being. That’s not weakness, that’s wisdom.

Have you been looking at your life lately wondering why things feel off or out of sorts? Blame it on May’s astrology.

Thankfully, things are basically fine on the surface. Yet underneath, there’s a strange feeling that’s subtle and even a little disconnected.

May’s AstrologyThe things you used to rely on don’t feel the same anymore. Your routines and even your goals feel a bit out of sync. It’s as if parts of your life belong to a version of you that isn’t working anymore.

You’re probably feeling some restlessness that comes and goes. There may be moments where you feel emotional without a clear reason. And, times when your energy dips, your focus drifts, or you catch yourself questioning decisions you once made easily.

Underneath all of it, something is trying to get your attention.

What you’re feeling right now makes sense when you consider this month’s astrology. It’s creating a very specific kind of internal movement. It’s subtle in some ways and intense in others, especially for midlife women already on a path of self-awareness and growth.

This month is inviting you into a deeper relationship with yourself. If you’ve been feeling off, it may be because parts of you are shifting before your outer life has had a chance to catch up.

Pluto Retrograde Brings TransformationA big part of May’s astrology begins with Pluto Retrograde. Pluto governs transformation, truth, power, and the subconscious. When Pluto moves into retrograde, its energy turns inward. Instead of external change, the focus becomes looking within.

You may notice old patterns resurfacing. This might look like emotional reactions, thoughts, or relationship dynamics you believed you had already worked through. There can be moments where something small triggers a much deeper emotional response than expected.

These old patterns are resurfacing to get your attention one more time. It’s like peeling another layer of the onion, revealing something deeper that’s ready to be released.

For women in midlife who have already done a lot of inner work, this can feel confusing. You may wonder why this is happening again. What’s actually happening is refinement.

Pluto is drawing your awareness toward deeper layers beneath what you’ve already healed. It’s showing you where your power still gets diluted, where you override your truth, or where old identities are lingering just enough to keep you out of alignment.

You may especially notice this in relationships. Situations where you feel drained, obligated, or subtly resentful begin standing out more clearly. You may recognize where you say yes when your body wants to say no, or where you stay silent to keep the peace.

These realizations may not arrive gently, but they are important and clarifying.

The Taurus Super Moon Amplifies EverythingAt the same time, the Super Full Moon in Taurus is magnifying emotional awareness.

Taurus is connected to stability, security, self-worth, comfort, and the physical experience of being alive. When the Moon is full in Taurus, these themes become more vivid and emotionally present.

You may find yourself craving simplicity and wanting to slow down. You could wish your life felt more supportive, nourishing, and aligned with what actually matters to you now.

At the same time, anything that isn’t aligned in those areas can feel much harder to tolerate. Your body is giving you information. There’s increased sensitivity to what supports you versus what drains you. Certain parts of life may no longer feel sustainable.

For many women in midlife, this connects to a deeper question about security. What felt secure ten or twenty years ago may not hold the same meaning anymore.

Your sense of security may be shifting from external validation toward trusting your own inner knowing.

Mercury in Gemini Speeds Up Your MindThe next astrological layer involves Mercury in Gemini. Mercury governs communication, thinking, and perception. Gemini is mentally active, curious, and constantly moving between ideas. When Mercury enters Gemini, the mind speeds up.

It can feel like the Universe suddenly turns the volume up on thoughts, conversations, signs, and inner messages. There may be moments of clarity followed by frustrating overthinking.

You might feel pulled in multiple directions mentally, trying to understand what you’re feeling while also questioning it at the same time. This is where intuition often gets drowned out.

Intuition tends to arrive as a whisper, first impression, or subtle knowing. Then the mind steps in to analyze, reinterpret, question, and dismiss it. By the time you’ve thought everything through, the original clarity can feel diluted.

That’s why this month asks you to notice an important pattern. Are you honoring your intuition, or questioning it instead of trusting it?

Mercury in Gemini brings brilliance, but it also creates mental clutter. Part of your work this month is learning how to hear yourself clearly beneath all the inner chatter.

Why Life Feels Misaligned Right NowWhen you combine Pluto’s inner transformation, the Taurus Moon’s emotional clarity, and Mercury’s mental activity, a bigger picture begins to emerge.

There may be a growing misalignment between your inner truth and the life structures you’ve relied on for years. Once you see that misalignment, it becomes difficult to ignore.

Parts of you are evolving. Your needs are changing and your awareness is expanding. Yet some areas of your life haven’t adjusted to meet who you are becoming.

That’s where the feeling of “this isn’t working anymore” comes from. Thankfully, nothing is going wrong with you. It’s about becoming more attuned to your true self.

Part of you is ready for a different way of living, choosing, and being. Another part still wants the familiarity of old roles, expectations, and patterns. That internal tension can feel confusing, exhausting, or emotionally draining. But there is clarity underneath it.

Your Inner Wisdom Is SpeakingThe good news is your intuition hasn’t gone anywhere. It’s always been there all along, offering guidance and waiting for you to listen.

Your inner wisdom often speaks through your body first. You may notice heaviness after certain conversations or lightness after making an honest decision. You may feel drawn toward something that doesn’t fully make logical sense yet.

This shift doesn’t require a massive overhaul. It simply asks you to notice more and pay attention to what’s happening beneath the surface. This month holds the energy of listening to yourself more than rushing into action.

You don’t have to solve everything immediately or reinvent your entire life overnight. You only need to start noticing what feels aligned and what doesn’t.

Simple practices can help support this shift, like slowing down, walking, journaling, stretching, or taking a few quiet moments to check in with yourself before reacting automatically.

In midlife, something within you is asking for a more honest relationship with yourself. A deeper trust. A way of living that reflects who you are now instead of who you used to be.

If your life feels different lately, it may mean you’re finally becoming honest about what no longer fits or works and shifting into a period of greater alignment. And that’s a good thing.

Key Takeaways* May’s astrology is creating strong inner shifts and emotional awareness. * Pluto retrograde is bringing old patterns and power dynamics to the surface. * The Taurus Full Moon increases sensitivity around stability, self-worth, and sustainability. * Mercury in Gemini can heighten intuition while also increasing overthinking. * Feelings of misalignment may reflect growth rather than failure. * This month supports reflection, self-trust, and listening to your inner guidance instead of rushing forward.

FAQsWhy does everything feel emotionally heavier lately? May’s astrology is amplifying emotional awareness and highlighting areas of life that no longer feel aligned or sustainable.

What does Pluto retrograde do emotionally? Pluto retrograde brings old emotional patterns and subconscious dynamics back into awareness, so deeper healing and refinement can occur.

Why am I overthinking so much right now? Mercury in Gemini speeds up mental activity, making it easier to second-guess yourself and harder to hear your intuition clearly.

Is this a sign something is wrong with my life? Not necessarily. This astrology may be helping you recognize where your outer life no longer matches your inner truth.

What should I focus on this month? Focus on listening to your inner knowing, paying attention to your energy, and noticing what feels supportive, honest, and aligned with who you are right now.

What is glamour magic? It’s the practice of consciously working with your own presence, so your most aligned, authentic self comes forward more clearly and consistently. Rooted in Celtic folklore, the Fae were said to cast glamours to alter perception.

However, the modern glamour practice I’m going to talk about is not about illusion. This is about being intentional to create alignment between who you are and how you show up in the world.

What Is Glamour Magic?The word glamour carries a shimmer to it, something just beneath the surface of ordinary life. Most people think of glamour as external like fashion, beauty, high-end jewelry, or personal presentation. But there’s something deeper here, something far more useful in your real life.

Traced back through Celtic folklore, glamour was considered a kind of enchantment. The Fae could cast a glamour to alter perception itself, making something appear more beautiful, powerful, or entirely different than it truly was. It was a kind of energetic artistry that could bend reality with a bit of illusion.

Modern glamour practice reclaims that concept, but instead of using it as a pretense, it’s being used here to promote alignment. Think about choosing how you want to show up to match who you are becoming, so your presence is felt more clearly, more consistently, and with far less effort.

How to Practice Glamour MagicGlamour practice is built through small, intentional acts that shift both your inner and outer world over time. Here are seven practical methods that you can try. Know that you do not have to do them all. Just choose what appeals most.

  1. Use Your Voice IntentionallyWhy it matters: Your voice and language set the tone for your entire day before anything else happens.

Most people use language unconsciously — hedging, softening, second-guessing. But language carries energy. When you choose your words with intention, you shift your internal state, which changes how you feel and how others experience you.

How to do it:

  • Replace “I hope” with “I’m choosing”
  • Replace “I’ll try” with “I will”
  • Pause before automatic apologies and decide if they’re actually needed
  • Speak a 20-second identity statement in the mirror each morning. “I move through today with calm confidence. My presence is steady. My words are clear, and people feel that.”

When you say this out loud, you’re not wishing. You’re practicing. Your voice becomes a bridge between who you are and who you’re becoming.

  1. Consciously Choose Your ScentWhy it matters: Scent connects directly to memory, emotion, and mood. It can shift how you feel almost instantly.

Instead of choosing a fragrance randomly, assign meaning to what you wear. You might have one scent for confidence, one for calm, one for openness.

How to do it:

  • In the morning, decide what energy you want to embody
  • As you apply your scent, breathe it in and set a simple intention: “I carry grounded confidence today” or “I’m stepping into ease and grace”
  • With time, your body associates the scent with that state of being. Wearing it becomes a shortcut to that energy

  • Hold Your Gaze in the MirrorWhy it matters: Most people rush past the mirror or avoid their own gaze. Staying there — even briefly — is an act of self-connection that builds inner authority.

How to do it:

  • Stand at the mirror and hold eye contact with yourself for 30 to 60 seconds
  • Relax your face, drop your shoulders, and simply be present
  • Say something simple out loud: “I trust myself” or “I am becoming more grounded and at ease”
  • This is where glamour turns inward. You’re not projecting — you’re reinforcing identity.

You’ll begin to see yourself differently, and that changes how you move through the world.

  1. Create an Anchor ObjectWhy it matters: A physical object worn daily can become a powerful cue for the energy you want to embody.

How to do it:

  • Choose something you already wear — a ring, bracelet, or watch
  • Hold it and intentionally connect it with a quality: steadiness, confidence, clarity
  • Say that quality out loud, then wear it as normal
  • Throughout the day, when you touch it, pause and reconnect with that feeling

This association strengthens as time passes. It provides a steady support, like a personal talisman but not for luck. It’s for alignment.

  1. Use Music to Up Your VibeWhy it matters: Music has a direct and immediate effect on emotional state. One song can shift your mood in seconds.

How to do it:

  • As you get ready each morning, play something that matches or elevates how you want to feel
  • Let your body respond, and know that even just a little movement counts
  • This goes beyond listening to embodying a frequency and choosing your state of being rather than waiting for it to arrive

  • Choose Your Daily StoryWhy it matters: Most people move through life reacting. But underneath every day, there’s a narrative running — and often, it isn’t a kind one.

How to do it:

  • Each morning, ask: what kind of day do I want to have, and who do I want to be within it?
  • Choose an energy to hold: confidence, ease, openness, creativity
  • When something unexpected happens, ask: how does the woman I’m becoming move through this?

This is where glamour really lives, in your ability to consciously choose your experience and then fully participate in it.

  1. How to End of the DayWhy it matters: Clearing your energy at the end of the day is just as important as how you begin. Even on a good day, you absorb energy from other people, conversations, and environments. Without releasing it, you carry it forward.

How to do it:

  • Wash your hands, step into the shower, or simply pause before bed
  • Imagine the day rinsing away — anything heavy, anything that isn’t yours
  • Say: “My day is complete. I release what I don’t need. I return to myself.”
  • You can also use a smudge stick or palo santo wood to clear your energy
  • Or try an essential oil like Tea Tree or a blend like Purify by doTerra

Key Takeaways* Glamour magic is about alignment, not illusion. It’s the practice of bringing your most authentic self forward through intentional daily habits. * Your voice is your first tool. Language and tone shape your internal state before the day has even begun. * Small rituals create lasting shifts. Scent, mirror work, anchor objects, and music are all practical tools for shaping how you feel and how others experience you. * Your inner narrative matters most. Consciously choosing the story you tell yourself is the foundation of sustained presence. * Close the day with intention. Releasing the energy you’ve accumulated is part of the practice, not optional.

Frequently Asked QuestionsIs glamour magic a form of spiritual practice? It can be, but it doesn’t have to be. This approach is grounded in practical psychology and intentional habit-building. The folklore roots give it context, but the methods work regardless of your spiritual beliefs.

How long does it take to see results? Many people notice a shift in their internal state within days. The external changes, like how others perceive and respond to you, typically emerge over several weeks of consistent practice.

Do I need any special tools or products? No. Everything described here uses what you already have, such as your voice, your morning routine, a piece of jewelry, and music you enjoy. Intention is the only required ingredient.

Can anyone practice glamour magic? Yes. This practice isn’t tied to a particular personality type, aesthetic, or lifestyle. It scales to wherever you are and whatever your day looks like.

What if I miss a day? No big deal! You simply begin again. Glamour practice isn’t about perfection, but awareness and intention. Every moment offers an opportunity to reconnect with the energy you want to embody.

Not every magical moment feels good, but you can always find magic in it. Some of the most powerful lessons and course corrections in life show up disguised as disappointments, embarrassments, and situations that leave you wondering what the point of any of it was.

After decades of doing intuitive work and living a spiritually guided life, I can tell you with certainty that the magic is always there. Sometimes you just have to dig a bit deeper before you can see it.

Lesson #1: You Always Have ChoicesFor my 40th birthday I wanted to do something very different. During my 30s I had read everything I could find about the Findhorn Garden and loved each book. Founded in 1962 by Peter and Eileen Caddy and their friend Dorothy MacLean, the Findhorn Garden flourished against all odds.

Located in Scotland, on the sandy shores near the North Sea, the garden miracle resulted from intuitive guidance from plant devas, nature spirits, and their own intuition. The produce yield was astonishing, including 40lb. cabbages. I actually had the sacred privilege of meeting Dorothy MacLean in the early 1990s when she traveled to the US.

Completely enthralled with their connection to nature spirits and elementals, I booked a trip to Scotland as my 40th birthday present to myself. More than 20 years after the books I’d read were published, things had changed considerably. None of the original founders still lived there, and the program for first-timers was uninspiring.

I arrived to cold, rainy weather. I was shown to a room I was sharing with four other women. The shower was freezing cold. And I was given the esteemed job of vacuuming the dining room. Apparently my 40th birthday gift to myself included communal living complete with snoring and a spiritual janitorial position.

Not What I ExpectedThe scheduled workshops each somehow managed to be less magical than the last. After enduring one particularly awful exercise that required birthing myself, I asked the female group leader if we were going to be rolling around on the floor any further.

She didn’t take it well and started shouting at me. What did she shout? “You have choices!”

Well, that was unexpectedly useful. What a fabulous and timely reminder. That night I changed my flights. The next morning I walked into the office, let them know I was leaving early, and asked for a partial refund.

One woman explained, “We don’t do that.” My response was simple and polite: “Well, you will today for me.” And they cut me a check.

The woman who handed it to me said with genuine astonishment, “When people leave early, they usually aren’t happy like you are.” That comment still makes me laugh. I was happy because I had choices and I acted on them immediately.

Lesson #2: Course Correction Is Its Own Kind of MagicA friend asked if I wanted to take a mediumship class. I’d taken one before and knew it wasn’t a passion of mine. The part I enjoy is relaying messages from loved ones, but most classes focus on evidential work. This is about identifying who the spirits are, which doesn’t light me up. But my friend wanted me there and it was inexpensive, so I said yes.

During the second session, the teacher joined our Zoom breakout room. We were told to focus on one woman as our subject. Since mediumship isn’t my strength, I often feel hesitant. But this day I decided to fully trust myself and say whatever came to me. I was going for it!

I picked up on a lot of details and was relaying them confidently when the teacher stopped me mid-stream: “Ok, Ronnie, let’s move on from that. I’ll explain why later.”

Later came in front of over 80 people on the full group call. Her explanation? “What you were saying — you were making it up.”

I wanted to crawl under a rock. Nothing like public humiliation to really open your psychic channels.

Here’s where I netted out. Do I believe she can see every spirit that shows up and is 100% infallible? No. That’s a rather bold claim. Was everything I said completely wrong? I doubt that too. Maybe I was picking up on spirits simply not related to the subject — this happens all the time.

Regardless, one thing was crystal clear. I had choices. And my choice was that this class wasn’t bringing me joy or serving my highest path. I stopped attending. A couple of weeks later the teacher reached out to ask why.

I explained that being embarrassed in front of 80+ people didn’t call to me for more. This was a simple course correction. Not too glamorous, but that’s the magic.

Lesson #3: Remember Who You AreI had landed a great spot in a day-long online summit with a wonderful lineup of speakers. Very exciting! The morning of the event I went to check out the schedule and discovered another speaker whose talk description appeared to borrow and rephrase much of what I had written about myself for this very summit.

I was astonished and filled with anger. That’s not exactly the centered energy I was hoping for before my own talk. I called a friend to vent. That didn’t help or change anything. Shocking, I know.

So I meditated, and from that place I asked my higher self, my guides, and angels: What is this about and what can I do?

Here’s what came through: “Remember who you are and what you’re good at. Does her copying you affect your presentation? Can she deliver this information with the same knowledge or passion? No.”

“You cannot control what others do, but you can let your energy drain away rather than focus on yourself and the opportunity in front of you. Be your best and let the chips fall where they will.”

I pulled myself together and gave a wonderful, energizing presentation. I did my best and the copycat never crossed my mind again.

Everything Is MagicI’ve done quite a bit of somatic healing work with my friend Jen Aks, founder of The Power of Gesture. One day I’d been through some unmagical event and worked through the emotion to release it with Jen.

I told her what happened and how I was said that I didn’t get to experience the magic. Then she asked where I felt that in my body and what gesture could represent that. I demonstrated the showed and then another that followed showing I had moved on.

This last gesture was like swimming, with one arm out in front of me at a time. As tears welled up in my eyes, what became clear was that I hadn’t missed out on any magic at all. As it turned out, EVERYTHING IS MAGIC!

The Bigger Magical PictureNot everything is fun or exciting in a positive way and that’s okay. These three experiences still delivered practical magic. They redirected my attention and helped me course correct. Sometimes I needed time to look deeper for the message. Other times it was clear as day, even if I wasn’t thrilled about it.

There truly is magic in everything. When something unpleasant happens, the practice is to calm yourself, take a step back, and look for the message or meaning. That’s when you can appreciate how things unfolded and what came next.

So yes, it is absolutely okay to ask, “Where’s the f*ing magic in that?” And then look for it. That’s exactly how you find it.

So, Where Is the Magic?* Magic doesn’t always feel fun, uplifting, or even remotely pleasant in the moment * Disappointing experiences often carry the most practical and redirecting lessons * You always have choices, even when situations feel out of your control * Course corrections are a form of magic, even when they’re unglamorous or not fun * Remembering who you are and what you’re good at is its own kind of spiritual practice * Looking for the lesson, even when you’re frustrated, is how you tune into and notice more magic

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat does it mean to find magic in a bad situation? It means looking for the lesson, message, or course correction that a difficult experience is offering you. The magic isn’t always fun or exciting. Sometimes it’s as simple as realizing you have choices, or that something isn’t serving your highest path and it’s time to move on.

Do you have to be spiritual to find magic in hard times? Not at all. The core practice here is self-awareness. Pause when something goes wrong and asking yourself what this experience is redirecting you toward. That’s accessible to anyone, regardless of their spiritual background or beliefs.

What do you do when you’re too angry or upset to see the lesson? That’s completely normal and human. The first step is simply to acknowledge the feeling rather than push through it. Meditation, talking to a trusted friend, or any practice that helps you calm your nervous system creates the space needed to step back and see things more clearly.

Can this way of thinking apply to serious loss or trauma? This approach is really meant for everyday frustrations and disappointments — the situations that make you stop and think, seriously, where is the magic in this? It is not a framework for processing grief, trauma, or serious loss, which deserve their own care, time, and support.

Can Anyone Improve Intuition?If you’re looking to better connect with your inner knowing and improve intuition, you may have wondered whether it’s a gift reserved for a select few or something available to everyone. What I’ve learned after years, is that it’s more accessible than you believe. You simply need to practice, a little courage, and a willingness to trust what you receive.

Group Energy Makes Intuition StrongerOver the weekend I participated in a reading circle. There were five women, and one by one we each asked a question while the others shared intuitive insights. I always enjoy gatherings like these, because when women come together to work with inner wisdom, the energy is greatly amplified.

This creates stronger guidance and it’s one of the reasons why I love working in groups and leading them as well. Groups amplify the energy beyond what one person can typically access alone, and it seems to open something in everyone involved.

One woman asked a question about a healing client, which turned out to be a horse. I haven’t done a lot of animal communication, although it does come up from time to time. Because of that, I’m not overly confident in this area and tend to trust myself more easily with humans.

But the question was about helping the woman facilitate healing for the horse, so I did my best to tune in. What I heard turned out to be accurate, much to my surprise and delight.

As I closed my eyes to focus, I heard a voice speaking to me, but I didn’t trust what was being shared. I immediately questioned it and wondered, “Am I making this up?” Then, in my mind’s eye, I saw the horse scraping the ground with his front right hoof, clearly saying, “No, this is me, you are not making it up.”

That was enough for me to settle in and listen.

The Horse’s MessageThe horse didn’t like his situation and wanted to be moved from his stall in the barn. He also indicated there was some kind of discord between himself and the other two horses, although he didn’t go into detail.

When it was my turn to share, I felt hesitant. I took a breath, acknowledged my uncertainty, and then repeated exactly what I had received.

The woman’s response completely surprised me. She confirmed there were three horses. Originally, the male horse and a female had spent a lot of time together. Then another male was brought in, and the female bonded with him, leaving the original male on the outside.

His stall was on one end next to the new male, while the female was on the opposite end, no longer near him. This shift in relationship was distressing for him.

The healer already knew the situation existed and confirmed it. She said she would speak to the owner about moving the horse for emotional reasons. Animal communicators often say horses are one of the most psychic animals and quite capable of telepathy. I guess so.

This is exactly the kind of moment that builds self-trust, when you receive something you weren’t fully sure about, and it turns out to be REAL.

Learn to Trust What You GetBack when I started learning to open up my intuition, I took many classes on psychic development and explored a wide range of tools. I tried everything I could find: clairvoyance, listening to spirit, writing messages from my guides, and psychometry, which involves holding an object and reading the energy connected to it.

It took me a while to catch on. I practiced a lot before I felt comfortable or confident in what I was receiving.

Today, the Vibration is Higher and FasterWhen I started teaching classes in the late 1990s, people would often catch on much faster than I did. They seemed to access things right away, whereas I had spent a long time developing my skills.

I believe that has a lot to do with how quickly energy is moving today and how much the frequencies have shifted. When I first started, teachers said it took many years of consistent work to develop these abilities, but that’s not necessarily the case anymore.

That said, practice still matters enormously. When you do the work, you begin to trust yourself more. And when you keep track of the messages you receive in a journal, even in simple bullet points, it gives you evidence you can look back on.

When you think about intuition, when working with the unseen there is often no obvious proof that something meaningful has happened. But when you write it down, you can later look back and see what you heard and unfolded as a result. It’s one of the fastest ways I know to build self-trust and confidence. This becomes the proof you need to believe in yourself.

How I Honed My IntuitionI got serious about my intuitive journey by taking a past life course that lasted three months with six women and a teacher. We kept resigning, extending the program into a full year. This is where I first experienced how group energy amplifies your intuitive ability. Over that year, we all grew significantly and learned how to access past lives that were influencing our present experiences.

Through the year, I became very close with one of the women, who is still a dear friend today. As we discussed what we were learning, something became clear to us. We realized that looking into the past was essentially the same skill as sensing the present or even looking into the near future.

So, we began experimenting by asking questions about next steps in work situations or how to navigate personal challenges. To our surprise, it worked beautifully.

It’s All the Same SkillWhat I’ve come to believe is that the skill you use to connect with intuition is the same, whether you’re tuning into the past or the present, seeking guidance, communicating with animals, or energy itself. The form may look different, but the connection is the same.

I’ve seen this in my own experience. Even though I never formally studied animal communication, I was able to connect with that horse. The ability translates across different forms of intuitive work. That doesn’t mean every area feels equally strong right away, but it does mean the door is already open for you.

I say this to let you know that you can do this too. It simply requires openness, awareness, intention, and practice. If you feel drawn to your intuitive abilities, follow that. Practice with a friend, or join a small group — that’s one of the fastest ways to build trust in yourself.

If you’re listening and thinking, I want to do this… but I’m not sure how to start or how to trust what I’m getting, this is exactly why I created my program, Awaken Your Sixth Sense.

This program will help you recognize your intuitive signals, trust what you receive, and actually use it in your everyday life when you’re making decisions or looking for answers.

It’s simple, practical, and self-paced, with easy exercises you can start using right away, so you can discover what works best for you.

And at just $27, with seven lessons, this makes it an easy way to get started without overthinking it.

Because intuition isn’t something reserved for a select few. It’s something you already have. And when you begin to trust it, life starts to feel a lot more supportive and often more magical too.

Key Takeaways* Group energy amplifies intuitive ability beyond what one person can typically access alone. That’s why working in small groups accelerates development significantly. * Doubt is a normal part of receiving intuitive information. Learning to push through it, rather than shutting down, is central to building trust in yourself. * Journaling your intuitive hits, even brief bullet points, creates evidence you can return to, and that evidence is what builds lasting self-confidence. * The skill behind intuition is universal. Whether you’re tuning into a person, an animal, the past, or the present, you’re using the same core ability. * Intuitive frequencies are faster today than they were decades ago, meaning people often develop these skills more quickly now than ever before. * Practice and community are the two fastest paths to developing confidence in your intuitive gifts.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is the most effective way to improve intuition? The most effective way to improve intuition is consistent practice. Tuning in regularly, whether alone, with a friend, or in a group, builds the muscle and helps you build confidence.

How can I begin to trust my intuitive insights? Write your insights down in a journal used just for your intuitive work. This gives you a way to track your accuracy. You can look back and see how you did.

Can anyone communicate with animals intuitively? You don’t need formal training in animal communication to receive intuitive impressions from animals. It’s the same skill you use to tune into people. Openness, intention, and a willingness to trust what you receive are the starting point.

Does working in a group really improve intuition? Yes, group energy amplifies what each person can access individually. Many people find they receive more accurate intuitive information in a small group setting than when working alone. It’s one of the fastest ways to build both skill and confidence.

Have you been feeling emotionally drained, because so many people are wanting your help? They want to talk about their life and problems or actually hope you can do something to improve their situation.

The Problem with HelpingFor many spiritually aware women, you are also empathic, which means you can feel a person’s distress. That adds to the emotional exhaustion. You care deeply, you want to listen and support the people in your life, but where does it end? You need time for your own life and self-care.

Here’s the shift most people miss. You don’t have to stop helping to stop the emotional drain. You simply need a new way to handle your energy while you care.

In this post, you’ll discover two simple, magical practices that help you release what isn’t yours and support others without losing yourself in the process. They’re easy, surprisingly powerful, and they can change how your energy flows pretty quickly.

I came across these practices in the Akashic Reading podcast with host Teri Uktena, and want to give her full credit for these powerful methods. I’ve add a bit of my own thoughts as well.

Why You’re Feeling Emotionally DrainedIt’s not that you’re too sensitive or doing anything wrong. The truth is, you’re just holding more than you were ever meant to carry.

When you’re intuitive or empathic, people naturally bring things to you. Their problems, their emotions, their confusion. And because you can feel it, you often do feel responsible for it.

That’s where the drain begins. You worry, think about them and their problems, wonder perhaps how to fix things. Sometimes you feel like you should do more. Without realizing it, you’ve been carrying energy that was never yours to begin with.

The “Not My Problem” JarThis is one of those practices that seems almost too simple, but it really works. In this case, you don’t need to do anything more, but choose to let go. The first step is to identify the person and problem where you have to draw the line, because the truth is, it’s just not your problem.

Next, take a jar and label it something that makes you smile, like Not My Problem. When someone brings you an issue that you can’t, or shouldn’t, take on, write it down on a small piece of paper.

Fold it up like you’re sealing it closed and drop it into the jar. That small act sends a clear message to your mind, your energy, and the Universe which is: this is not mine problem.

You’re not being dismissive but setting a clear boundary. That clarity is what frees you from feeling emotionally drained in the first place.

The Helping BowlThere are also moments when you genuinely want to help. You care. You’re invested. But you don’t want to walk away feeling depleted again. This is where the Helping Bowl comes in.

Find a bowl you love and fill it with stones, glass beads, or crystals. Each one becomes a place to hold your intention instead of your body holding the energy.

When someone needs support, take a moment to focus on them. Imagine things working out. Feel a sense of resolution, even just a little. Then place a stone in the bowl.

You’ve done something real and offered support. But you haven’t taken it on as your own. It’s a small but important shift, that prevents the weight of the world from resting on your shoulders and feeling emotionally drained.

How These Practices Impact Your EnergyThese two techniques are more than symbolic – they are energetic. Here’s what you are accomplishing by using either method:

  • Creating a boundary without shutting down your heart
  • Moving energy out of your body and into something physical
  • Choosing what you carry and what you don’t

Can you see how wonderfully these steps will help reduce the energetic and emotional drain on you?

Instead of absorbing everything around you, you relate to all the requests for listening, advice, or help differently. You’ll experience a little more space and ease. Plus, a lot more self-trust about what is right for you.

Key Takeaways* Feeling emotionally drained isn’t a personal flaw, it’s a sign you’re carrying too much that isn’t yours * You don’t have to stop helping others to protect your energy * Simple physical practices can help you release and redirect emotional weight * Boundaries can feel gentle and supportive, not harsh or rigid * Your energy becomes lighter when you consciously choose what to hold

A Better Way to CareYou don’t have to close your heart or stop helping to feel better. And this doesn’t mean you’re someone who doesn’t care. Instead, you’re caring and helping in a way that doesn’t deplete your energy. You might still listen to people’s problems or offer help, but no longer to the extent that it drags you down.

This is the kind of practical magic that’s so easy to do and effective as well. Just a jar, a bowl, and a conscious decision to stop carrying everyone else’s problems.

Once you start, you’ll notice something shift within. You’ll feel lighter, clearer, have more energy and feel more like yourself again. From this place, everything you offer is tempered to help, but manage your own energy at the same time. That’s good self care!

This is how you can stay centered in your own life and energized for what you need to do, while helping and caring about the people in your life.

While it may seem the world is in chaos, that energy can also transform your life with surprising positive outcomes.

The World Feels ChaoticRight now the world feels crazy. The news is relentless and social media is a mess. Conversations that used to feel easy have gotten complicated. If you’re checking your phone and feeling drained before you’ve even had your morning coffee, you’re in good company.

But here’s what I want you to consider: What if all this chaos isn’t just something to survive? What if it’s actually something you can put to good use?

After more than twenty years working with intuition and mindset, I’ve seen something really interesting The people who thrive in turbulent times aren’t the ones who tune everything out. That does help. But the ones who learn to redirect the energy, come out on top.

That’s what I want to talk about today.

Chaos Is Neutral EnergyHere’s something most people don’t realize – chaos is not inherently bad. At its core, chaos is raw energy. It’s neutral and doesn’t have an agenda. What it does have is intensity, momentum, and the power to break things open. And if you think about it, that’s exactly what transformation requires.

Think about what happens in nature. A wildfire is absolutely chaotic and destructive. But the forest that grows back afterward? More diverse, more resilient, more alive than before. The chaos clears the way and creates new opportunities.

So the question isn’t how do I get away from all this chaos? The question is how do I stop absorbing it as negativity and start using it as fuel?

In the Eye of the StormIt’s a known fact that the center of a hurricane, called the eye is calm. While the storm rages all around, middle has a strange stillness.

That’s a great image for what I’m describing. When the world is in chaos, you don’t have to spin with it. You can find your center and from that place, you can access clarity, creativity, and your own intuition in ways that get drowned out when you’re caught up in the commotion.

This is where magic comes in and I mean that in practical terms. Magic is about intention, consciously directing your focus and energy toward what you want to create. It ahs nothing to do with reacting to whatever’s happening around you.

When you focus on what you want to create, you shift from being at the mercy of external circumstances to being an active participant in your own life. That shift? That’s enormous. And it’s available to you right now, in the middle of whatever is going on.

Real Magic Looks Like ThisI want to share a couple of real stories because magic isn’t just a feeling or a concept — it shows up in real life in some pretty surprising ways.

A friend of mine has been apartment hunting in a tough real estate market. She’d looked at a bunch of places and nothing felt right. Then she found a condo that checked a lot of boxes, but she still wasn’t sure.

I went with her for a second look and as we walked outside to leave, a raven was cawing loudly in a tall tree nearby. If you know anything about animal symbolism, ravens represent magic and transformation and are seen as messengers from spirit.

My friend and I both took this as a positive sign! She decided to take it and loves the apartment.

Was that a coincidence? Not a chance in my mind. Here’s what I’ve learned after years of paying attention to these breadcrumb moments: when you’re open to signs, you notice them. These hints or clues can guide you toward aligned decisions.

The synchronicity isn’t random — it’s the universe or your higher self communicating in the language of symbols, and your intuition is what receives the message.

Here’s another story. One of my clients was looking for a job and running into agism. It happens. After a year of looking, her energy was depleted and her outlook was dim. I lead her through my process to crack the shell of negativity and see possibilities again.

Next, I shared a few ways to bring more magic into her job search. Within two weeks she had three interviews lined up! Amazing!

“Aha” Moments Create Dopamine!You know that feeling when something suddenly clicks? When an insight arrives out of nowhere and it just feels true? The feelings you get when you encounter new knowledge or truth. Or even surprise and curiosity. and the thrill of discovery.

These emotions aren’t just fun — they’re actually driving us toward growth. They’re signals that something real is happening, that we’re connecting with something that matters. Researchers have named this group of reactions “Epistemic emotions.”

Here’s another fun fact: studies suggest that people who believe in magic are up to 34% happier. Not because magic is delusional but because a magical mindset is more optimistic. You tend to look for meaning, notice connections, stay curious, and are more engaged and resilient with how you move through life.

When you see life through this lens, you’re finding the layers within it. And that makes everything richer, and sometimes even more fun.

This Isn’t BypassingI want to be clear about something. This isn’t about pretending everything is fine or skipping over your real feelings. Chaos is real. Hard things are real. If you’re going through something difficult, that difficulty deserves to be acknowledged.

Spiritual bypassing, where you use positive thinking to avoid actually dealing with something, isn’t magic. It’s avoidance with glitter on it.

What I’m talking about is something different. It’s moving through the hard things and then consciously choosing where to direct your energy next. It’s feeling what’s real and still refusing to hand your power over to it.

Midlife Isn’t What They Told YouOur culture tends to frame midlife as a time of winding down as if the adventure is behind you. You’re supposed to be figuring out how to maintain what you have rather than reaching for anything new.

That is not my experience, and it’s not the experience of the women I work with. Midlife, which is life after 50 is not just a number. It’s actually one of the most creatively rich and magically potent phases of life.

You know yourself better and have survived hard things. You have less tolerance for nonsense and more clarity about what actually matters. You’re not starting over, but starting from a much stronger foundation.

The chaos that’s happening in the world? Instead of letting you get you down, which would be understandable, what if you let the external chaos remind you that transformation is possible?

A Time of ChoicesYou can choose what to absorb or redirect. You can look for the signs and synchronicities that guide you. You can use this wild, intense, chaotic period in history as the very thing that pushes you toward the life you actually want to live.

That’s not wishful thinking. That’s magic — and it’s yours to use.

If you’re feeling stuck and want support to navigate the chaos, reconnect with your intuition and inner magic, I’d love to chat. A one-hour Laser Shift Session is a powerful way to get clarity on one situation to get moving again.

No deep dives, digging up the past, or shadow work. Plus, you’ll also experience my signature Infusion of Joy process. Learn more here and let’s talk.

I sat down with Dina Berrin, an intuitive guide, tarot reader, certified life coach, and author for this totally delightful conversation about inner wisdom on the Breathe Love & Magic podcast interview.

Get her Free Gift, the Tarot Coach Approach here.

How to Lift the Dark CloudLet’s just say it. Right now, the world feels heavy. A lot of people are avoiding the news and holding onto a low-grade anxiety that can’t be clearly identified.

You know that image of Pig-Pen from the Peanuts cartoons? He walked around with a little cloud of dust overhead that followed him everywhere. These days many of us are walking around just like that.

But here’s what Dina and I both believe – you don’t have to live like that, under that cloud.

You are the driver of your life. You’re not the passenger, passively sitting there, hoping to get somewhere at some point. But as the driver, you get to choose your cargo and what you leave at the curb. You are in charge of the trip.

Dina shared the power of building a daily practice centered on calm and ease. She’s not saying you need a complicated, long morning routine that adds pressure to your plate. Her suggestion is simple and consistent.

Maybe it’s short meditation. Or do some journaling, letting your worries spill onto the page, so they stop circling in your head. Perhaps you say affirmations or do something magical.

The form matters less than the intention. Showing up for yourself everyday, with presence and intention for inner peace and connection to your higher self or spirit.

Consistency is the key ingredient, according to Dina. When you tend to your inner world with that kind of devotion, something shifts. You start to bring a different energy into everything you do. Right now, you need that extra dose of light and so does everyone else.

Follow the BreadcrumbsThis is how spirit and your intuition communicate when you’re paying attention. Inner wisdom is rarely a big thunderbolt of a message. More often, it’s like a trail of breadcrumbs.

In the dating world, “breadcrumbing” has a bad reputation. It’s stringing someone along to keep them hooked. But Dina and I talked about the positive aspect of breadcrumbs when it comes to your inner wisdom.

The universe often leaves you hints, nudges, and perfectly timed coincidences to help you find your way. Breadcrumbs!

Once you start to pay attention, you’ll start seeing those crumbs everywhere. A book falls off the shelf. A conversation with a stranger answers a question that’s been on your mind. You get a feeling in your gut that says “Yes”.

The idea is to simply follow the trail and understand that more will be revealed, but usually one step at a time. You rarely get to see the entire map up front. That’s just how it is with spirit most of the time.

Living AuthenticallyHere’s where things get really juicy. Dina and I spent time exploring what it means to live authentically and how much of our lives we spend doing the opposite without even realizing it.

Most people have been conditioned to look outside themselves for answers. They seek validation, approval, and permission. You become fluent in the language of other people’s expectations and so many have lost touch with their own inner knowing and wisdom.

Becoming self-aware is the solution. This is about the gentle, curious kind of awareness and the practice of noticing how you act and react. Get really clear if you’re showing up as you or as the version of you that’s trying to keep everyone else happy.

Dina puts it so simply. When you’re deeply connected to what you truly need and want, you stop solely pleasing everyone else. This is how you cultivate self-trust. You build the kind of confidence that doesn’t require anyone else’s validation.

And from that place, you’re more present, and genuinely useful to the people around you. Respecting and taking care of yourself serves more than just you. It really does serve everyone’s highest good.

Turning to TarotOne of my favorite moments is when Dina told me a story about her daughter was waiting to hear where high school she got accepted to. Such a stressful situation, it turned into one of those agonizing periods where the outcome feels completely out of your hands.

That’s when Dina did what she always does. She turned to her tarot deck. Wondering what this meant and how things would resolve, she pulled a card.

Not just any card, but she chose the Sun card. This is radiant, optimistic symbolism that everything would absolutely work out for her daughter. That card became her calming anchor through three months of difficult uncertainty. And at the end of those three months, and far too many meetings and phone calls, her daughter landed a wonderful high school placement.

Here’s how Dina and I both think about it picking a card. Tools like tarot, numerology, and astrology aren’t about handing your power over to something outside yourself. These sacred tools are more like mirrors of your inner wisdom. They reflect back what your own intuition already knows, and calm the inner turmoil, so your inner voice can actually be heard.

The cards, runes, and I-ching among others, are tools for self-understanding. Who couldn’t use a little more understanding?

You Are the MagicIf I could bottle up the essence of my conversation with Dina, it would be a calm, steady belief that you are not broken, lost, or left behind. You are someone with deep inner wisdom who may have simply gotten distracted from your truth.

Your intuition is still there. The breadcrumbs are still being dropped. The tools are waiting for you. All that’s left for you to do is follow the trail and trust that it’s leading somewhere wonderful, appropriate, and luminous.

Dina has a beautiful free gift called The Tarot Coach Approach — three ways to make heart-centered, intuitive decisions even when life feels overwhelming.

The astrology is unusually supportive of Midlife Magic, as the waxing crescent moon conjuncts the 7 Sisters of Pleiades on March 22nd! This is wonderful for spiritually aware women over 50 who are ready to reconnect with their inner wisdom and move into a more aligned and magical way of living.

This week, the kind of energy that helps you release what no longer fits and begin listening to yourself again is especially strong. The stars are aligned for growth and movement right now in exciting ways!

Friday 3/20 @2pm ET or Saturday, 3/21 @11am ET Email me to tell me which day works for you!

New Moon Match 18thThe New Moon on March 18, 2026, moves into Pisces, which brings a sense of completion and spiritual transition. Pisces energy is already intuitive, emotional, and inward-focused. But right now, we also have a cluster of planets in Pisces, which amplifies everything.

Heads up! Your sensitivity may be higher. Your dreams may feel more vivid. And, you may find yourself picking up on subtle emotional or energetic cues more than usual.

This New Moon follows a total lunar eclipse that was on March 3rd and comes just after Jupiter turned direct in Cancer on March 10th. Together, these events create a strong “turn the page” feeling after a period of emotional clearing. It’s like a clean slate waiting for something new.

For many women in midlife, this can show up as being ready to release old stories. Stories about aging, what you want, and or dropping this need to be the caregiver for everyone. It’s time to take care of yourself!

Your body may speak to you as well. Fatigue, tears, or even physical tension can be signals of your body asking for rest, gentleness, and attention.

This is actually a beautiful window to set intentions around spiritual growth, creative expression, healing, and shifting old coping patterns into something healthier. In addition, you might start calling in relationships that honor who you are now.

To mark the moment, keep it simple. Try a salt bath, a few minutes of journaling, or even asking yourself, “What identity am I ready to release?” From there, set a gentle, yet empowering intention like, “I allow a life that aligns with the woman I am now” which fits perfectly with this new astrological energy.

The 7 Sisters of PleiadesOn Sunday evening, March 22nd, the waxing crescent Moon conjuncts the 7 Sisters of Pleiades. It’s visually beautiful in the sky, just step outside and look up if it’s a clear night.

There’s been a lot of talk about March 2026 feeling “magical,” partly because of several celestial events happening close together. These include the earlier March eclipse and a recent Grand Planetary Parade.

The Seven Sisters have long been associated with shared wisdom, feminine connection, and support. That makes Sunday night the ideal time to gather with other women. You may focus on being supportive, healing old wounds, manifesting together or healing the earth..

You could spend a few quiet minutes outside, say a prayer, meditate, or do a ceremony of your own creation. There’s something powerful about simply pausing, looking up at the sky, and remembering that you’re part of something much larger and deeply intelligent.

A Shift Toward ClarityAs we move into early April, the energy begins to shift from inward reflection to clearer outer expression. On April 4th, Mercury becomes more visible in the sky. This supports communication, clarity, and new ideas.

At the same time, there are larger background changes happening. Saturn and Neptune have recently moved into Aries starting a long cycle that blends vision with reality and intuition with structure.

That means its a time to be more honest about what you want in this next phase of life. You may find yourself less willing to stay quiet just to keep the peace and have a stronger desire to express what feels true.

Ideas that came through in March, whether in dreams, realizations, or emotional insights, now want to take form.

So, you may have an honest conversation, make a clear plan, or take a step you’ve put off for a while. It could be something as simple as saying what you need in a relationship. Or as bold as starting a new project that feels more aligned with who you are now.

There’s a growing sense of “This is more me,” and a willingness to follow that, even if it shifts expectations. That’s Midlife Magic for you. Connecting with your inner wisdom and higher self.

It’s Time to StretchRight now, the invitation is to move gently and be honest with yourself. Process what feels complete. Pay attention to what your inner voice says and what you really want. Notice where you feel called to stretch, even just a little. Connect with the real you and your higher self.

Focus on your inner life first. Let emotions, dreams, and quiet moments guide you toward what is ending and what is ready to start fresh.

Be intentional about connection. Whether it’s one meaningful conversation or acknowledging your desire for more supportive relationships, this is a time to realign with the kind of community that truly fits you.

As clarity builds in the coming weeks, trust the inner wisdom nudges that encourage you to speak, begin, or choose differently. You don’t have to figure out your entire future, just have to follow what feels more aligned today. That’s where Midlife Magic blossoms!

Let me know you choice of day in the message!

Like a Pebble in Your ShoeStatements like that can lodge in the subconscious like a pebble in your shoe – so bothersome until you can remove it. I recommend that’s what you do with a bad reading – replace it with something that’s supportive or positive.

Years ago, this is one reason why I stopped getting casual readings, the kind where you’re just curious and want to hear what an intuitive person has to say. For me, that started to feel like giving my power away.

I still ask a trusted friend for intuitive insight from time to time, but only about a specific situation where I truly want another perspective. Or I feel stuck and aren’t sure which way to go.

Recent ReadingRecently, I was interviewing a woman who does an interesting style of readings. I allowed her to use me as a guinea pig during the podcast recording so she could demonstrate her method. That was not my best idea.

I asked what I thought was a simple question that wouldn’t get me into any trouble. How wrong I was. The experience inspired me to share this story because I want you to know how to handle something like this if it happens to you.

I’m going to explain how to reset your energy and take your power back. And this same method can also help with bad dreams or even uncomfortable past life memories.

Back in the 1990s I used to attend psychic fairs with friends. I was curious about metaphysical practices and fascinated by the people who lived and breathed this work. Plus, it was fun browsing books, crystals, and spiritual tools that were much harder to find back then.

At One Psychic FairAt one fair I sat down for a reading and asked about my near future. The reader started describing a situation that immediately made me nervous. Before I knew it she was predicting that I would become ill in the coming months.

I was currently healthy and had not asked anything about my health. I remember feeling furious that someone would say something like that so casually.

My reaction wasn’t exactly graceful. I stood up, slammed my hands on the table, looked her in the eye, and said, “That was not helpful!” Then I walked away in a huff. Admittedly, not my finest moment.

Thankfully I never became ill that spring, but the reading lingered in my mind for a while. At that time I didn’t know how to clear something like that out of my energy field.

Fast forward to last week during that podcast interview. The woman I was speaking with seemed nice and good-hearted, but at one point she said something that made my jaw drop. She said you always need a bad element in a reading.

That is definitely not true in my world.

Helpful & Uplifting ReadingsWhen I do readings for clients, the goal is always clarity, compassion, and support. Even when something challenging appears, I talk about the lessons involved and what options or perspectives might help. A reading should leave someone feeling more empowered, not discouraged.

As the recording continued, the direction of the reading she was giving me started to feel increasingly dismal. She tried to soften it when she noticed my facial expression, but the cat was already out of the bag so to speak.

When we finished recording, I suddenly felt exhausted and strangely sad. I went to lie down on the couch and took a short nap. When I woke up I realized what had happened. That reading had left a heavy feeling hanging over me.

First, Clear Your EnergyThe first thing to do after an encounter like that is clear your energy. I did a quick Reiki clearing and there are many ways to do this. You can smudge yourself, take a shower, wash your hands, or simply step outside for fresh air and sunshine.

Then I remembered something incredibly helpful I learned years ago from Hawaiian shaman Serge Kahili King, and later encountered again in a book by Denise Linn.

It’s a simple idea that changes the way you see situations like this. You are not stuck with someone else’s predictions. You have the power to change the outcome energetically.

This same approach works in three situations: bad readings, disturbing dreams, and troubling past life memories. Here’s what I did.

Change the OutcomeI spent time imagining the outcome I actually wanted. For example, I pictured the perfect summer. Lots of sunshine. Temperatures in the low 80s and low humidity. Walking along the shoreline or sitting with my feet in the sand.

In my mind I was reading a book, meditating, writing in my journal, laughing with friends, and soaking up the ocean air. It felt peaceful and joyful. That was the energy I wanted to create.

If you’ve had a discouraging or bad reading, you can do something similar at home. Take out your deck of cards. Don’t perform a new reading. Instead, look through the deck and choose the cards that represent the outcome you truly want.

Next arrange them as your ideal spread. This isn’t wishful thinking. This is directing energy.

Magic isn’t about waving a wand and hoping for the best. It’s intention combined with focus and action. When you select the outcome you want and imagine it clearly, you begin aligning your thoughts and energy with that direction.

Once you arrange the cards, you can take a picture of them, leave them out on your table, or revisit them whenever you want to reinforce the feeling. You’ve intentionally shifted the energy toward the outcome you desire.

You are never stuck with someone else’s reading. My future is up to me. It’s in my hands. And so is yours!

Change Bad DreamsThis approach works with dreams as well. I once had a dream where a lion was staring at me in a threatening way. I woke up with my heart pounding and no idea what it meant.

Later that day I thought about the dream and realized I had been feeling threatened in some area of my life. So I decided to revisit the dream in my imagination.

I got on the couch, pictured the lion again in my mind, and waited to see what response came naturally. To my surprise, I roared at the lion. I became fierce and confronted it head-on. And in the vision, the lion backed away.

It sounds funny now, but it completely shifted the energy of that dream. After all, it’s your dream. You can change it any way you like.

You can do something similar with past life memories. in Denise Linn’s book Past Lives, Present Miracles, describes guiding large groups of people to recall past lives and then helping them rewrite the ending of a troubling experience.

The lessons have already been learned. But changing the ending can shift the emotional imprint you carry.

In one memory I recalled being part of a group practicing magic in Venice during the 1400s. Someone tipped off the authorities and they burst in and executed everyone. I did a visualization about this ending to change it. What came to me was to invite the guards to join us in the magic rather than kill us.

In the vision they laid down their weapons and participated in the magic! The energy of the experience changed completely.

The Magic of NeuroscienceWhy does this work? Neuroscience offers an interesting explanation. When you vividly imagine something, your brain activates many of the same neural pathways it would if the event actually happened. And your brain cannot tell the difference between a created memory or a real one.

Focusing on a new outcome creates and strengthens new neural pathways. You aren’t changing the historical event, but you are changing the emotional imprint it leaves in your system. And that shifts your energy.

So if you ever receive a discouraging reading, had dreams or recalled an uncomfortable past life memory, remember this:

No reader, no dream, and no memory has more authority over your life than your own consciousness. You have the power to choose the energy you want to create.

Set your intention. Focus your thoughts on the outcome you prefer. Then take whatever actions support that direction. That’s magic.

Imagine growing up in a world where energy was real, spirit was part of the conversation, and healing was something passed down through generations. That was my guest, Barbara Savin’s world.

In this episode, Barbara shares the powerful influence of her two grandmothers and how they shaped the path she walks today. One was a natural healer. The other lived a life of service. Between the two of them, Barbara absorbed something rare – a deep knowing that life is more than what you can see.

From Brooklyn to Spiritual AwakeningRaised in Brooklyn, Barbara’s journey from highly sensitive child to certified hypnotherapist and spiritual life coach is layered, human, and surprisingly relatable. She didn’t just inherit mystical gifts. She had to wrestle with them.

And that’s where it gets interesting.

Barbara grew up in a time when anything spiritual was dismissed as “woo-woo.” Even with two spiritually attuned grandmothers, the outside world didn’t validate what she felt. Her own mother was skeptical and often dismissive of Barbara’s intuitive experiences, which created a deep inner conflict.

Imagine being a sensitive child who feels everything and senses emotion in a room instantly, and then being told it’s not real. That tension stayed with her for years.

She often felt caught between two worlds, the practical Brooklyn life around her and the invisible energetic world humming just beneath the surface. It wasn’t until her 30s, when her own health challenges brought her to a breaking point, that she stopped resisting what she already knew.

Sometimes life nudges you. Sometimes it pushes. Her health crisis became a doorway.

Returning to energy healing wasn’t just about improving her physical well-being. It required emotional, mental, and spiritual recalibration. She had to come home to herself. By reclaiming her intuitive gifts, she regained her health and stepped into her true purpose.

And here’s the thing I love about Barbara’s story. It’s the unfolding of someone finally trusting what had always been there.

Healing Amidst TraumaOne of the most moving periods of her life came after 9/11. Her husband and son managed to escaped harm that day and the enormous relief and gratitude she felt pushed her into service.

When invited to help with first responders she jumped at the chance. She worked in the Salvation Army tent on Staten Island, assisting first responders with their healing.

Working with firefighters and others who were deeply traumatized changed her understanding of healing forever. Trauma doesn’t just live in the mind. It becomes embedded in the body and ripples through the nervous system. It lingers in the energy field and touches the spirit.

You don’t just “get over” something like that. Healing trauma, she realized, is a return to safety on every level. Physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual. It requires presence and compassion, and simply can’t be rushed.

Protect Your EnergyHer work during that time cemented what she already sensed as a child. You are more than your physical body, and real healing must include the unseen layers of who you are.

That brings us to something we both feel strongly about: protect your energy.

Barbara credits her grandmother’s teachings about stepping into God’s light as foundational. It’s a simple but powerful image. You consciously surround yourself with light and set an intention that only love flows in and out. That’s a beautiful example of energetic hygiene.

Just as you brush your teeth and care for your physical body, you must tend to your energetic well-being. Barbara emphasizes daily practices like meditation, gratitude, and clear boundaries. Her methods are grounded and practical.

Part of this is to be discerning about who you spend time with. You can feel the difference between someone who lifts you and someone who drains you. Your body and your energy know. She encourages you to notice who feels expansive and who feels heavy?

Maintaining healthy boundaries isn’t selfish. It’s emotionally intelligent and preserves your vitality.

Positivity SecretsWhen I asked Barbara about her secrets to handling the decades with grace and vibrancy, her answer wasn’t complicated. Gratitude and meditation anchor her. Every morning she takes time to reflect on what she’s thankful for.

Even during seasons of challenge, including her husband’s health battles, she returns to presence and appreciation.

Gratitude, in her view, isn’t a forced positive attitude. Instead, its about alignment and it shifts your energy field. This is how you recalibrate your nervous system. A grateful heart reminds you that life is still offering gifts, even when circumstances feel uncertain. That practice keeps her light strong.

Embrace Your Spiritual PathBarbara’s journey is ultimately about listening to the inner voice that refuses to go away. The one that whispers when something looks good on paper but feels wrong in your body. The one that nudges you back toward your true path no matter how long you’ve ignored it.

She chose to honor that voice, despite skepticism and convention. And in doing so, she built a life of fulfillment and service. There’s something comforting about that.

No matter how far you wander, your path is still there. Waiting, patient, and unmoved.

Get Barbara’s beautiful free meditation called “The Garden of Life,” which guides you through a gentle inner landscape of healing and self-discovery. It’s an invitation to reconnect with your own energy and remember that the answers you seek are not outside of you.

I love Barbara’s message of accepting who you are, trusting your sensitivity, and honoring your intuitive gifts. You can always choose light and gratitude even after trauma.

Her life is proof that when you embrace your spiritual nature and treat your energy with respect, you grow and find love, joy, and satisfaction.

And if you’ve ever wondered whether your own intuitive nudges are real, whether that quiet inner knowing deserves your trust, Barbara’s story feels like a gentle but clear answer. Yes, it does.

BIO -Barbara SavinBarbara Savin is an author, energy healing specialist, certified hypnotherapist, and spiritual life coach. Raised in Brooklyn and shaped by both life’s challenges and spiritual awakening, Barbara blends real-world strength with deep intuitive wisdom.

She is the author of Help Me, I Am Not Crazy, They Are: How to Survive Challenging People, Gentle Energy Touch, The Beginner’s Guide to Hands-On Healing and Awaken Your Best Self with Affirmations and host of The Spiritual Warrior Coach Podcast.

Her work at the California Health & Longevity Institute at the Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village, along with her collaboration with respected physician Dr. Sharon Norling, earned her national recognition for thoughtfully integrating modern wellness practices with ancient energy-based healing techniques

Following the events of 9/11, Barbara volunteered her healing services to first responders, offering emotional support and energy work to assist them in processing trauma and restoring resilience during the difficult years that followed.

Have you ever had a moment where, for a split second, you remembered who you really are? That’s the divine spark. Not your “to-do list self”, nor the roles you play, but the part of you that feels ancient, luminous, and plugged into everything?

I just had one of those flashes, so let me tell you the story.

The Divine SparkPeople use the word spark in all kinds of ways such as energy, life force, soul fire. Many meditations invite you to picture a divine spark in the heart. Recently I found myself wondering, where did that image even come from? Who started talking about the spark like that?

Minutes later I flopped onto the couch, opened YouTube, and clicked a video from Ellie Dreams Down Under, who has a fabulous playlist on the Gnostic gospels. And what was she talking about? The Spark. What it means and how it shows up in the Gnostic texts. The timing made me laugh.

(For more about Gospels, check out this episode about the Gospel of Mary -it’s about Mary Magdelene)

When things line up like that, I take it as a wink from the Universe. For me, that’s a moment of plugging into something bigger than my personality.

Sometimes those reminders are gentle, like a video. Other times they’re not subtle at all. A health crisis, an accident, a loss. Something cracks open ordinary life and there’s a fierce knowing, I am more than this physical form.

Buried WisdomYou can trace the idea of a spark through many traditions, but today I want to focus on one text, the Gospel of Truth. It’s a mystical early Christian writing with a lot to say about forgetting, remembering, and that flash of recognition we’re calling the spark.

This isn’t a sermon but an esoteric deep dive into what the spark means and how it might be moving in your life.

The text was discovered in 1945 at Nag Hammadi in Egypt, part of a buried library of early Christian writings sealed in jars for centuries.

It’s usually connected to the Valentinians, a 2nd century mystical Christian group who cared less about believing the right thing and more about remembering where you come from.

When I first read it, I’ll be honest, some of the biblical language felt dense. Some of it made me roll my eyes. So I’m going to switch out modern words for what I consider the offensive words. I’ll explain as I go.

Belief Vs. KnowingBelief is information you’ve been told. Gnosis, the word the Gnostics used, means inner knowing. It’s that moment when something wakes up and you think, “Oh. I know this. I’ve always known this.”

One scholar sums it up like this, “I come from God, I share God’s essence, I will return to God.” That’s the heartbeat of this text.

According to this story, humanity has fallen into ignorance and forgetfulness of the Divine Source. The gospel uses the word Father. I prefer Source or Universe. Ignorance is personified as Error. Error is described like a fog, even a nightmare we’re living inside.

Then Christ appears. He’s not someone balancing a cosmic spreadsheet of sins, but a teacher and revealer. His role is to dissolve ignorance through direct knowing of Source.

From this perspective, salvation isn’t about punishment. It’s about awakening and remembering where you came from and what’s real. That flash of, “Oh. I remember.” That’s the spark.

It’s the instant your everyday personality glimpses the deeper self that has never been separated from the Divine. You could even think of intuition as one way the spark activates. That persistent inner knowing that recognizes truth when it hears it.

Suffering and LiberationThe text says ignorance is the mother of all evils. As a modern woman, you can imagine my reaction. But we need to remember this was written in an ancient patriarchal culture. So, I’ve switched out “gives birth” for what a word I prefer – “creating”. Now you can understand that the gospel says ignorance creates suffering and awakening creates liberation.

When you forget who you are, fear and confusion step in. You start building your life around a mistaken identity. Gnosis isn’t trivial information. It’s a direct inner knowing of Source and of your own divine nature.

Living in FogError refers to the fog. You can recognize it when you cling tightly to your roles such as mother, partner, caregiver, professional, helper. None of those are wrong. They’re beautiful. But when you believe that’s the entirety of who you are, the bigger picture disappears.

The spark is the moment something inside you says, “This can’t be the whole story.” It feels expansive. A remembering that you are more than your résumé, more than your relationship status, and more than your current problems.

Intuition tugs at your sleeve when you falsely shrink to fit those roles. It refuses to let you live only inside the fog and encourages you to remember the truth of who you are.

Human beings carry a piece of the Divine, a spark that has fallen into the material world and forgotten its origin. That’s us. We didn’t fall because we were bad. We fell because we forget.

You see versions of this story elsewhere. In Kabbalah there’s a teaching about a divine vessel filled with sparks of light. The vessel shatters, the sparks scatter, and each spark forgets it once belonged to a radiant whole.

The Gospel of Truth says Christ reminds you that you are still that spark. You never stopped being it. While you’re here in a body, the deeper work is remembering your true essence as divine presence. That’s what the Gnostics refer to as liberation.

Most of us have had at least one moment like that. Something cracks open and you realize you’re more than your physical form.

Fear and MisinformationError is described almost like a hostile force built out of misinformation, which feels very modern. We’re not strangers to misinformation – just think about the nonsense you see in social media.

The text says once truth appears, Error is exposed as hollow. It also talks about fear and terror come from ignorance. If you’re a midlife woman, you’re already familiar with how you start to ignore fear based scripts like:

  • If they don’t like me, I won’t be safe.
  • If I’m alone, I’m a failure.
  • If I disappoint someone, I’ll lose everything.

At some point something in you says, “That is not true.”

You drop those scripts not because someone convinced you, but because you feel their falseness in your body. In this framework, ignorance of your own divinity allowed those fears to be in charge earlier in life.

The spark is your moment of sanity. The flash where you realize you don’t have to live under those old stories anymore. That’s liberation.

Modern ReflectionSome modern thinkers explore similar ideas from a different angle. In The Divine Spark, an anthology edited by Graham Hancock, several writers suggest psychedelics may temporarily dissolve the brain’s filter, allowing people to experience unity consciousness.

They use different language, but are talking about the same idea. The fog thins and remembering happens, this time through psychedelic journeys.

I’m not suggesting you do plant medicine, though I know people who have had powerful insights through it. I’m simply pointing out that this question of remembering is still being explored two thousand years later.

The Gospel of Truth says humanity fell into ignorance and fear. Christ appeared as a messenger of joy and remembrance, calling you back to who you’ve always been. Whether you believe in Christ or not, the idea is beautiful. The spark is the part of you that recognizes that truth instantly.

As a spiritual framework, remembering your own divine nature resonates with me. Not in a grandiose way, but in a calming, grounded way.

You are part of the Universe. Which means you are not separate from anything. When I guide meditations and invite you to expand your energy field until you blend into everything around you, this is what you’re touching. That sense of oneness. Some describe it as agape, universal love, a steady belonging.

There’s something powerful about exploring this in your ordinary life, not as theology but as lived experience. That’s where gnosis begins. Right in the middle of your actual life.

February has been so crazy! With this annular solar eclipse, it feels like all hell is breaking loose. Here’s what’s happening astrologically.

Is Everyone Panicking?My phone has been busy with texts, voice mails and calls where friends and clients are panicking and some wanted to run something by me. It’s not light stuff. It’s relationship strain, career panic, health worries, friendship fractures, spiritual doubt, or tech meltdowns.

What the heck is happening? I thought this was going to be a good year with movement and the power to create?

What’s fascinating is that the people reaching out are not normally dramatic. They tend to be savvy women who meditate, journal, regulate, and reflect. They usually handle life relatively easily. And yet this month, everyone’s nervous system is on fire.

Let’s zoom out and take the wise-woman view which I sometimes call the 100-foot perspective. When you understand the energy, you stop personalizing it, and that alone can calm you down

First let me say, don’t worry, the sky is not falling. But the astrology is wild and crazy.

What is An Annular Solar Eclipse?February 17th brought an annular solar eclipse in Aquarius, known as the “ring of fire.” In this type of eclipse, the Moon doesn’t completely block the Sun. The center is obscured, but a ring of light burns around the edges.

A total eclipse feels like a blackout and reset. But, this is different. The core is hidden, while the edges are illuminated. You may not see the full picture or answer yet, but the pressure is lighting up what’s out of alignment and not working.

Aquarius governs community, technology, collective systems, online spaces, innovation, and the nervous system. It’s about the group, and also the rebel who stands apart from it.

Square with UranusThis is beyond my pay grade when it comes to astrology, but the eclipse forms a square to Uranus. That’s the planet of shocks, disruption, sudden change, and liberation through chaos. In astrology, a square creates tension and it pushes and exposes what isn’t working.

Now we have an Aquarian eclipse about collective structures and identity, under pressure from Uranus, which breaks what’s rigid and outdated. That alone explains a lot. So, friendships may be strained, you might have tech glitches, and online spaces could seem volatile.

And, you may have a strong sense that “I cannot keep doing this the same way.”

Spiritually, think of it this way – the annular solar eclipse opens a portal, and Uranus is the lightning bolt shoving you through instead of letting you tiptoe at your own pace. No wonder everyone feels wired.

Year of the Fire HorseBut that’s not all. In the Chinese zodiac, the 17th marked the start of the Fire Horse year. Fire Horse energy is bold, restless, fast-moving, impulsive, and freedom-driven. It does not like feeling trapped and pushes for action.

That layers impulsive Fire Horse energy on top of an Aquarian eclipse that demands reinvention. And again, we’re still not done.

Saturn and NeptuneAround February 20, Saturn and Neptune meet at zero degrees Aries, which is the very beginning of the zodiac. Think of it as the cosmic starting line.

Saturn represents structure, responsibility, and reality. Neptune represents dreams, spirituality, illusion, and dissolution. When they come together, illusions dissolve and dreams get tested. And this is happening in Aries, the sign of identity, initiation, and self-definition.

So if you’ve been thinking, “Who am I now?” or “What do I even believe?” or “Why doesn’t my old coping strategy work?” you’re not losing it. This is a deep archetypal reset.

It can feel like the old container cracked, and the new one hasn’t been built yet. And this is on top of that annular solar eclipse.

Why This Feels Like a CrisisWhen I look at the conversations I’ve had, there’s a pattern. It’s not random chaos, but more like a threshold of energy. In other words, there’s an energy shift on the horizon.

The Aquarius eclipse with Uranus activation is shaking collective and social structures. People are realizing they’ve over-given to groups and stayed in communities that drain them.

People are waking up to reaalize they built businesses around systems that don’t fit anymore, or curated identities that now feel warong or false. There may be a strong sense that insists, “I can’t keep being this version of myself” that’s running through everything.

Discernment and WisdomThen, Saturn and Neptune in Aries step in and ask, “If not that…then who are you?” It’s too much!

Let me explain this last piece. Neptune dissolves certainty while Saturn demands accountability. Spiritual bypassing won’t work now. Neither will shifting into fantasy or hiding by over-working. And you can’t rescue everyone either.

Yet, Fire Horse energy insists that you do something! That’s why people feel tempted to quit their job, leave the relationship, and burn bridges. Or you might want to make a giant leap to somewhere else.

Some leaps will be aligned with your highest good, but many will be simply reactive. That’s why discernment is everything right now. Be wise with your choices.

The Nervous System FactorEclipse season is always trying, especially teh annular solar eclipse. Aquarius and Uranus both connect to the nervous system. When Uranus is activated, people feel wired, restless, and jittery. Sleep can get disrupted and you’re likely mentally overstimulated. Plus, your old coping mechanisms stopped working. Yikes!

Then Neptune makes things feel foggy and emotionally porous. So, there’s this very strange combination of high alert and low clarity. which explains why you might feel like something big is happening, but you don’t know what it is or how to handle it.

Yup, that’s eclipse energy. Eclipses obscure before they reveal. With an annular eclipse, the center is blocked while the edges glow. You can’t see the core answer yet, but the misalignments are lit up.

The Spiritual Opportunity* The Aquarian eclipse asks for a reset in your relationship with community and the future. What are you actually trying to create? * Saturn and Neptune ask whether your dream is real enough to stand on. * Aries demands to know who you are when everything external is stripped away. * Fire Horse asks what you’re willing to risk for freedom.

Of course all of this can feel terribly destabilizing! Any identity shift triggers the ego’s alarm system.

OK, this could help a bit. You do not need to reinvent yourself overnight. Take time to refine your spiritual identity and distinguishing fantasy from your genuine intuition.

What Can You Do?Your very first step is to regulate your nervous system before analyzing or doing anything. Before trying to figure anything out, be sure to calm your system and steady your body.

1. Calm the nervous system.

  • Extend your exhale longer than your inhale.
  • Hum for 3-minutes.
  • Walk outside without your phone.
  • Eat warm, simple food slowly.
  • Reduce scrolling and screen time.
  • Put limits on how much collective drama you consume.

2. Assess your communities.
Notice which conversations leave you wired or resentful. Where do you feel obligated instead of connected? Tihs powerful reset does not require any dramatic exits. Sometimes just pulling back where you’ve been over-giving will do the trick.

3. Clear your energy.Before making big decisions, be sure to clear your energy field. You can smudge, take a detox bath, get some energy work. Then, decide the roles you’re done with like the fixer, the peacemaker, the one who holds it all together. Consciously release what roles no longer serve you.

4. Get specific about what you want.
Think about what you want. Do you want to collaborate or have a partnership? What kind of creative risk are you willing to take? What changes will you make to improve how you approach life and work?

The good news is that fire energy when focused, is transformative. But when that same energy is scattered, it can burn everything.

5. Limit venting.
This might surprise you but while venting can be good, you can’t let it go on too long. Go ahead and vent for 20-minutes, then take one grounding action. This way, you don’t risk causing yourself to spiral down any further. Small, steady choices are far better than panic-fueled leaps.

If You’re Steady Now, Know ThisIf right now you aren’t feeling all this craziness, you might be like me. I’m calm as long as the storm isn’t mine. Maybe you digest change faster than others.

Yet, if everyone is calling you to talk things over, you cannot save everyone. Take a break and turn off your phone. Drink tea or read a book. Take a walk or a nap.

Let yourself reset before showing up for others, so you don’t allow yourself to get drained. I got zapped when everyone called the same day!

Crossing a ThresholdFebruary is a threshold month, which right now feels unstable because you’re between identities. You are at a turning point, along with the entire collective.

The best thing you can do is to slow down your decisions. Protect your attention and strengthen your body. Use the fire consciously and take your time.

When the astrology is this crazy like this, become quiet and watchful. Listen more carefully to what is actually true for you. All your inner knowing to guide you through this rough patch.

February is revealing what no longer fits. That revelation may be uncomfortable, but it is helpful to move you forward for your highest good. In the long run, this annular solar eclipse and all the other planetary alignments are deeply supportive of helping you create the life you are here to live and enjoy.

Has your intuition ever kept you out of harm’s way? Mine did last week. And it reminded me how powerful our inner wisdom really is.

The Power of Intuition and Mindset ShiftsToday, I want to share two recent experiences. One is about a powerful mindset shift that surprised me. The other is about an intuitive message that quite possibly kept me from being injured.

Both are examples of what I call Midlife Magic. Using energy, mindset, spiritual tools, and intuition to move through life with awareness and choice.

There are certainly days when things don’t go my way. I’m not floating through life pretending everything is perfect. But even on hard days, I consciously choose how I respond. I process what I feel, and then I look for a perspective that supports me instead of drains me.

That’s not spiritual bypassing. It’s intentional living.

Midlife Magic is available to anyone who chooses it. And midlife, by the way, is whatever age you decide it is. You’re in charge of that.

One of the gifts of this stage of life is wisdom. You’ve lived long enough to recognize patterns. You’ve made mistakes and learned from them. That wisdom shows up in small moments, in your ability to pause, to choose differently, to listen inward before reacting.

And that’s where today’s first story begins.

A Dubious ComplimentLast week I received a LinkedIn message from a man I don’t know. He told me my astonishing smile brightened his entire day. Oh, I’m sure it did.

If you’ve been online longer than five minutes, you know the pattern. Flattery. Vague admiration. A setup for something questionable.

There were so many ways I could have reacted. I could have been annoyed. Disgusted. I could have reported him. I could have spiraled into irritation and let it affect my entire mood.

Instead, I paused. And in that pause, I noticed something important. I didn’t actually want to experience any of those reactions. Yes, they were understandable. But I had another option.

A thought popped into my head that felt lighter and more empowering. What if I just take the compliment as if it came from the Universe instead of from him? Not the motive. Not the person. Just the compliment.

I deleted the message. But before I did, I allowed myself to imagine that my presence, my energy, my smile could brighten someone’s day. Whether he meant it sincerely was irrelevant. I chose to let that part be true for me. That’s Midlife Magic.

Choose Where Your Energy GoesThis isn’t about ignoring your feelings. First you feel and acknowledge them. Then you decide where your energy goes. This is a mindset shift.

I didn’t need to analyze his intention or let irritation hijack my nervous system. I decided to focus on the version of me who moves through the world with ease and sparkle instead of armor and suspicion. And that choice changed how I felt.

We all know how easy it is to spiral downward. One moment of yuck can drain your energy. Then you have to recover and that takes time and effort. But when you practice shifting perspective, you build a different pattern.

Interestingly, research supports this. Studies from the National Institutes of Health show that happiness isn’t something that randomly appears. It’s shaped by what we repeatedly focus on and value.

When you linger on a good moment, appreciate something small, or engage in something meaningful, you’re reinforcing neural pathways that make it easier to notice what’s working.

Over time, those tiny choices train your brain to default toward steadiness rather than stress.

And here’s the key: intuition becomes easier to hear when your nervous system feels safe and resourced. When you aren’t constantly frazzled, your inner voice gets clearer.

Be Open, But DiscerningA friend told me a story that beautifully illustrates this idea.

Her nephew once saw a woman on Instagram he found attractive. He sent her a direct message that simply said, “What’s up?” Yes. That was it.

The woman responded with, “Do I know you?” They started chatting and now they are happily married.

I’m not suggesting you respond to every random message. Not at all. Discernment matters and so does safety. Yet, sometimes opportunity arrives in unexpected packaging.

The lesson isn’t to always engage. It’s that you get to CHOOSE. You can stay open without abandoning your wisdom. You can be discerning without being closed.

Where in your life could you be just a little more open?

What has shown up recently that rubbed you the wrong way at first glance? And is there a silver lining you could take while leaving the rest behind? You don’t have to force positivity. You simply get to decide what something means to you. That’s real wisdom and power.

Now let me share the story about how my intuition kept me safe.

Intuitive MessagesThere’s a door in my house that leads from the family room to the garage. The locking mechanism has been slightly off for months, so the door has to be slammed to close properly.

One freezing morning, after slamming it on my way out, I heard a calm inner voice say, “Look up.” There was no panic or fear. Just a quiet suggestion. So I turned around and looked up.

Above the door hangs a large, heavy horseshoe, one of my husband’s blacksmith treasures. The two nails holding it in place were sticking out nearly an inch. It was hanging at an angle and could easily have fallen on one of us.

If I hadn’t looked up, it very well might have. I immediately felt gratitude and said “Thank you” to the sender of that message. Later, my husband rehung it more securely. The crisis was averted.

That calm inner message is what intuition often feels like for me. Not dramatic or loud. Just clear.

This wasn’t the first time. Years ago, I heard an inner nudge to tell a barking dog, “I love you.” It sounded ridiculous. I almost ignored it. But I said it anyway. The dog stopped barking and never barked at me again.

Over time, I’ve noticed patterns like this. Warnings about people. Guidance about jobs. Alerts about small dangers like a candle rolling out of its holder and burning the table.

Ignoring Intuition Has ConsequencesWhen I was younger, I ignored these intuitive nudges and suffered the consequences. Now I don’t. That’s part of the wisdom that comes with midlife. You recognize patterns and trust your track record. Then, you pay attention to the information received. And that deep well of inner knowing is always available.

Isn’t it time you accessed your inner wisdom and magic more deliberately?People who rely on their intuition have many advantages in life.

Start by setting an intention to notice your intuition. Then keep an evidence journal. Write down the nudges you followed, the ones you ignored, and the outcomes. Pay attention to the feelings in your body.

Tracking the evidence builds self-trust. It makes intuition feel real and reliable rather than vague or imaginary. Over time, those whispers stop feeling questionable and start feeling trustworthy.

That’s Midlife Magic. And the best news is that it’s already inside you!

Do you wonder about your past lives and how they might be impacting your life today? That’s what the Akashic Records are all about and my guest, Mary Madeiras explains everything beautifully.

Mary is an Advanced Akashic Records Practitioner, author, and three-time Emmy award-winning television director. Yes, that combination is as interesting as it sounds. Her background provides a rare way of translating big spiritual ideas into language that makes sense.

What Are the Akashic Records?Mary explains the Akashic Records in a way that people immediately get. They’re not some distant cosmic filing system reserved for mystics. The Records are a source of insight connected to your soul and higher awareness. Everything you have done in the past, are doing today, and possibly may do in the future can be found in one place.

Don’t go to the Akashic Records to collect past-life trivia or dramatic stories to entertain yourself. This information or resource is meant for understanding patterns, gaining clarity on issues happening now, and most of all, remembering who you are.

What surprises many people is how practical working with the Records can be. Clear answers are often found about questions regarding relationships, work, creativity, or your direction in life. These are all ideal queries for the Akashic Library.

For Mary, accessing the Records feels less like a solemn ritual. Her experience shows up more like stepping into a curious, open conversation with a wiser part of herself. She’s encountered many wonderful revelations for her clients as well.

How the Records AppearPeople often expect the Akashic Records to appear as a grand inner vision. You might see an ancient massive library filled with an endless sea of books. That image works beautifully for me and many others. However, Mary’s experience is very different. In fact, she doesn’t see a library at all.

Instead, the information she receives comes through as a strong sense of knowing. Mary calls these impressions quantum visuals, meaning they aren’t pictures so much as complete ideas that arrive fully formed. Imagine a block of information downloading to your intuitive brain.

Officially, this is called claircognizance or knowing. Mary doesn’t access her imagination or memory. The knowledge appears clear and direct in her mind, like it was brought there all at once.

Over time, Mary learned to trust her intuition. She uses all of the “clairs” including listening, sensing, feeling, and knowing. This broader intuitive process allows the records to communicate in whatever way works best for each practitioner.

It’s a relief for many people to hear that there’s no single right way to work with the Akashic. You don’t need dramatic inner movies or to hear voices to do this intuitive work. The message always matters more than the method of delivery.

Past Lives Without the DramaThe Akashic Records can reveal past lives, but not always the way you might expect. These stories aren’t about the details of a life, but more about context. Past-life information tends to surface when it helps explain something puzzling that’s happening now.

Clients can learn about roles they once held, themes that keep repeating, or relationships that feel strangely familiar. I asked Mary if it was like the soap operas and we laughed! However, the valuable insights aren’t in the story itself. The information helps people understand their current choices, fears, and strengths.

When viewed this way, past lives stop feeling abstract or like a curiosity. Your previous incarnations become a tool for insight, healing, and personal growth.

Get the Ego Out of the WayOne of the most important parts of Mary’s work is learning how to step aside mentally and emotionally. She does this by consciously setting her ego aside before opening the records. Imagine that she tells her ego to take a seat in the corner and be quiet.

This matters because opinions, assumptions, and personal filters can easily distort intuitive information. By releasing the need to interpret or judge what comes through, Mary allows the guidance to remain clear. She becomes temporarily incapable of having an opinion during sessions, which is exactly what makes the information so valuable for clients.

Fascinating Past Life StoriesSome of the most memorable moments in Mary’s work come from retelling clues from the Records. One client who is an artist, had visited France and would always cry as she was leaving. She couldn’t understand what this was about.

Through the Records, Mary discovered a past life in which the client had been apprenticed to a lesser-known painter, who she worked for and then married. She would finish his work for him as part of her job.

What made the experience powerful was that it tied her travel to France with being an artist in this life. After doing some research, she figured out which painter she’d been married to. The Akashic reminded her of something old and familiar and connected them to make more sense.

The Records Are WithinOne of Mary’s core teachings is that the Akashic Records are within you. You’re not separate from them, and the information isn’t hidden behind spiritual barriers. Turns out all of this data is part of your own energetic makeup.

Across cultures and time periods, different traditions have pointed to this same idea. Edgar Cayce spoke about the records. The Bible refer to a Book of Life. Modern physics talks about fields of information and possibility. These are different languages, but all the same concept. Everything is connected, and your lessons are never truly lost.

When you see the Akashic Records this way, they stop feeling mysterious or unreachable. They become something you can trust and access in your own way.

A Lighter WayAs our conversation came to a close, Mary shared a message that felt especially important and reassuring. Despite how chaotic the world seems right now, you are likely doing better than you think. There’s a tendency to believe you need fixing or that you are missing something essential. The records consistently suggest otherwise.

Mary encourages people to notice what brings ease and enjoyment into their daily lives. Small moments of pleasure matter. Laughter matters. Feeling connected matters as well as doing what you love. These aren’t distractions from spiritual growth – they’re a big part of it!

Live With Curiosity and Trustlive with curiosity and trustThe purpose of exploring the Akashic Records is to better understand your life and the lessons you’re learning. When you approach your personal development and spiritual growth with curiosity, your own insights and choices become easier. Decisions feel less pressurized.

Mary’s work reminds you that wisdom doesn’t have to be heavy or dramatic. Sometimes it’s simple and even fun. Often, it’s waiting for you to stop striving and take the time to simply listen.

Reaching the age of 50 isn’t when the magic fades, but when you encounter the midlife magic and inner wisdom that brings you greater peace and joy. Those small signs, strange coincidences, and odd little nudges you’ve been noticing are life trying to get your attention!

Slow Down to See the MagicThis is something I’ve been noticing more and more, both in my own life and in conversations with women like you. It’s subtle and often hard to name, yet once you begin to sense it, something shifts. Life starts to feel a little easier, more exciting, and unexpectedly richer.

Midlife carries a particular kind of magic. Not the dramatic kind, but something subtle and more alive. A kind of magic that doesn’t announce itself loudly. Instead, it becomes visible when you slow down enough to notice what may have been present all along, waiting for your attention.

For many women, this stage of life arrives with mixed feelings. On the surface, things are fine. You’re functioning, capable, and holding things together. Yet underneath, you might notice a low hum of restlessness. Friends have moved away. If you have children, maybe they’ve left home. Days can feel repetitive. Nothing is wrong, but something feels off.

You may find yourself wondering if this is really all there is.

That feeling doesn’t mean something has gone wrong. In fact, it may be a signal that something deeper is ready to emerge.

The Subtle Shift in MidlifeBy the time you reach midlife, you’ve already lived a rich stretch of life. You’ve loved, adapted, endured, learned, and carried responsibility in countless visible and invisible ways. Even if you don’t always recognize it as wisdom, there is a depth of knowing that comes from navigating real experience over time.

This is often the moment that quiet sense of blah surfaces, not as a failure, but as a signal that something deeper is ready to emerge.

For many women, an internal shift begins to unfold. The constant drive to prove, push, or keep up starts to loosen its grip. You may care a little less about what others think. The outer noise dims just enough for you to sense something more subtle moving underneath it.

What emerges is a different kind of awareness. A willingness to listen more closely to what’s happening around you and within you. There may be a growing curiosity about what feels meaningful now, rather than what once felt necessary or expected.

Midlife doesn’t arrive with a clear announcement. It creeps in gradually, and then one day you realize you’re standing in a new phase. Yes, it may come with a few gray hairs, but it also brings the possibility of greater discernment, honesty with yourself, and a deeper connection to what truly matters.

This stage of life naturally invites reflection and a slower, more intentional way of listening. You may find yourself relying less on figuring everything out and more on presence, patience, and awareness.

Becoming the Wise WomanThis is why I call you wise women, even if you don’t fully identify with that name yet.

Wisdom isn’t about accumulating more information. It’s about recognizing and sensing what’s essential. You begin to trust what you’ve learned through experience and more of that can be cultivated over time.

By midlife, your knowledge has had time to mature into meaningful insight. Your sense of inner authority may be emerging, even if you still look to others out of habit. With greater awareness and reflection, you may notice how your timing, decisions, and attention shape your life in more intuitive ways.

The wise woman moves through life with discernment. She understands that clarity doesn’t always come through effort or logic alone, but through attention and reflection. This way of living can be strengthened with practice, support, and guidance.

Even if you’re not fully living this way yet, you may already sense it’s possible. That knowing is important. It means the door is open.

What Magic Looks LikeWhen I talk about midlife magic, I’m talking about perception. The ability to notice underlying messages from your inner wisdom, higher self, or spirit.

Magic lives in awareness. It shows up as moments of resonance, gentle guidance, and the feeling that life is quietly responding to you. You may notice synchronicities appearing more often, beauty landing more deeply, or intuition speaking more clearly.

As internal noise quiets and striving eases, space opens. Your perception sharpens because you’re available to notice more. This connection doesn’t need to be summoned. It reveals itself naturally as you move through your day with openness and attention.

One of the most reliable ways this magic appears is through beauty.

Beauty that arises naturally and catches your attention. Light filtering through trees. Firelight flickering across a room. Snow falling into stillness. These moments slow you down and bring you into your body. They remind you that life is still offering meaning in quiet, accessible ways.

This is why I spend time in my garden. Sitting near my zinnias, bordered by wild, unclaimed land, I feel connected to something larger. Over time, this practice has become a place of grounding, insight, and presence. The wisdom of the natural world has taught me that when we slow down and listen, guidance arrives.

Synchronicity as ConversationAnother way midlife magic reveals itself is through synchronicity. A book appears at the right moment. A thought is echoed by an unexpected phone call. A message arrives just when it’s needed.

These moments can feel like a conversation with the Universe itself. A sense that something unseen is responding to your questions or intentions.

I’ve experienced this many times, including during my years as a dating coach when a simple affirmation about writing for a women’s magazine turned into a four-year column through an unexpected conversation. This was no coincidence but an amazing response from the Universe.

Even if you’re not fully living as a wise woman yet, you can learn to notice these moments. A wise woman pays attention, reflects, and allows meaning to unfold.

The Return of AlivenessHere’s what feels important to say. The easing that comes in midlife isn’t due to a loss of vitality. Midlife can be a powerful time of trusting what you know and honoring the wisdom you’ve earned, while continuing to grow into deeper connection and awareness.

When you begin to tune in this way, joy becomes less frantic and more luminous. Life feels responsive. Meaning expands.

You don’t need to chase this magic. You simply need to notice where life already feels alive and engaged. Midlife isn’t a narrowing of life. It’s an opening into a more intimate relationship with yourself, with life, and with something greater.

Something ancient and luminous is stirring within you now. As you slow down and pay attention, life begins to respond. This is where your magic lives — and it is only just beginning. It’s time to celebrate your wisdom and open to your midlife magic!

Today, I’m talking about the element of fire. This is the third episode in my series on the elements. Last fall, I explored water and wind, what they represent and how to work with them in everyday life.

The Element of FireWhen I say fire, I mean the flames that warm you, cook your food, clear land, and forge metal. Fire is one of the few elements that feels instantly familiar and deeply mysterious at the same time.

You’ve sat in front of a fire and felt its heat. You’ve probably stared into the flames and lost track of time, almost like a meditation. That alone tells you something important.

For thousands of years, fire has been far more than a tool. It has been treated as a presence, revered as a teacher, and even honored as a deity. Across cultures, fire has been seen as a messenger between worlds, a force that connects the visible and invisible.

In classical and esoteric traditions, fire is one of the four primary elements, alongside earth, water, and air. It’s associated with energy, passion, illumination, will, creation, destruction, and transformation.

More than anything, fire is the element that changes things. Everything that touches fire is altered, and there is no undo button when it comes to flames.

That’s exactly why mystics, shamans, and alchemists paid such close attention to it.

When I talk about fire as a spiritual element, I’m talking about a force that burns away what no longer serves, illuminates what’s been hidden, and initiates transformation at a deep level. Fire is never subtle.

Fire Across Time and TraditionIf you look back through history, fire appears everywhere people were trying to understand life, death, and the unseen world.

In ancient Greece, fire was considered a divine substance, famously stolen from the gods by Prometheus and given to humanity. That myth alone tells you how powerful fire was perceived to be. Fire wasn’t just heat, it was consciousness, creativity, and civilization itself.

In Vedic and yogic traditions, the fire element is called tejas. Tejas represents inner radiance, metabolic energy, and illumination. It’s linked not only to digestion of food, but to digestion of experience, what you can process, integrate, and turn into wisdom.

In Chinese philosophy, fire is one of five elements and is associated with the heart, joy, vitality, and spirit. When fire is balanced, there’s warmth and enthusiasm for life. When it’s excessive or depleted, it shows up as burnout, agitation, or a coldness of spirit.

Celtic traditions placed fire at the center of seasonal festivals like Beltane and Samhain. Bonfires marked thresholds between worlds, protected communities, and ushered in new cycles. Fire was symbolic and practical.

And in homes across the world, the hearth fire was the literal and energetic center of life. It’s where food was prepared, stories were told, and decisions were made. The hearth was both sacred and ordinary.

When we work with fire today, we’re stepping into one of the oldest relationships humans have ever had with an element that could both sustain and destroy them. Fire demands respect and doesn’t negotiate. In return, it offers truth by stripping away illusion and getting to the core.

Builder, Destroyer, and Catalyst for ChangeOne of the most important things to understand about fire is its dual nature. Fire is both a builder and a destroyer.

People usually think of fire’s destructive qualities, but destruction is not inherently bad. Fire clears old growth in the forest, so new life can emerge. It purifies, resets, and creates space.

In alchemy and mysticism, this dual role is essential. Fire breaks structures down to their core components. From that essential place, something new can be formed.

This mirrors an inner process many people experience, especially in midlife and beyond. There’s often a moment when what used to work no longer does. Old identities might feel restrictive and old patterns can feel exhausting. Maybe there’s an inner fire saying, “This cannot continue.”

That inner fire isn’t trying to make you uncomfortable, but working to realign you. Fire doesn’t consider your comfort zone as it eliminates illusion to reveal the truth.

Fire and Spiritual AlchemyIn spiritual alchemy, fire is the heat that refines raw material into something clearer and more potent. Alchemists weren’t just trying to turn lead into gold. They were working to transform fear, emotion, and confusion into insight and clarity. That doesn’t happen without heat.

Fire has long been described as a bearer of information, a force that accelerates transformation and amplifies subtle energy. In yogic and Buddhist traditions, balanced inner fire is linked with clear perception and intuitive awareness. You see more clearly. You digest experience instead of storing it as emotional baggage.

This is why working with fire can feel clarifying and, at times, uncomfortable. Fire asks simple but powerful questions such as:

  • What’s ready to be released?
  • What truth is trying to surface?
  • What no longer fits?

If you’ve ever sat in front of a candle and had an unexpected realization, you already know how fire speaks.

The Hearth and Everyday AlchemyFor most of human history, the hearth fire represented safety, nourishment, and belonging. In Greek tradition, Hestia was the goddess of the hearth, embodying stillness and presence. In Irish tradition, Brigid carried the triple flame of hearth, forge, and inspiration, overseeing care, craft, and creativity.

Cooking over fire is everyday alchemy. Raw ingredients are transformed into nourishment through heat, time, and attention. When you cook with awareness or light a candle with intention, you’re already working with fire as an ally.

Fire for Manifesting and DiviningFire has also long been used for manifestation and divination. It creates momentum – just think of how a fire spreads so rapidly. Fire also shifts things from one state to another, responding to clarity and sincerity, rather than force or desperation.

Across traditions, people burned symbols of what they wanted to release or manifest. Watching something physically transform signals completion to your nervous system. The flames help the body and psyche understand that a shift has occurred.

Fire has also been used for divination, especially using a candle. Observing how a flame moves, steadies, flares, or resists lighting has long been a way of engaging intuition. Fire helps you reflect on what’s already present rathern than telling you what to do.

One of the easiest ways to work with fire is by candle gazing, a practice found in yogic traditions called tratakah. Watching the flame steadies the mind, quiets mental chatter, and brings clarity.

Listen to the podcast to discover several simple fire practices in the podcast.

Message from the Element of FireIntuitively. I’ve connected with the element of fire. A couple of years ago, my friend Krista and I sat in front of a fire. Suddenly she suggested we should “talk to the fire.” I was surprised, and honestly delighted, when I actually heard something.

I had been told it takes years of training to speak with the elements. That’s no longer true. The energy on earth moves faster now. The veil is thinner. Many people have a higher vibration today.

What I heard from the fire was simple and unmistakable:

“I am powerful. I am destructive. I am creative. I am transformative. I am beautiful. I am warmth. I am dancing. I am passion.”

That sounds exactly like fire, doesn’t it?

Fire teaches through warmth and light, but also through endings and change. When you work with fire, you’re can’t control it. You’re partnering with a force that knows how to transform everything it touches. You listen, respect, and collaborate.

Sometimes, that’s exactly the kind of magic you need.

What does abracadabra mean? You’ve heard magicians in tuxedos say it, as well as children with magic wands. Maybe even in a Disney movie!

It feels magical even if you’ve never stopped to ask why. It’s playful, mysterious, and seems to appear at the exact moment something changes.

Today, I’m not talking about stage tricks or fairy tales. This is an invitation to reclaim the magic in words. Abracadabra was meant to heal and to shift energy, and offers a powerful doorway back to something ancient and surprisingly scientific.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same mental loop, repeating the same old stories about yourself no matter how much inner work you’ve done, this is for you.

The Magical Power of Your WordsThe words you speak shape your brain, your nervous system, and the life you quietly create every day. This is actually ancient and ties to the secret history of abracadabra.

If you could travel back to the Roman Empire in the second century and told someone you were sick, they might prescribe something unexpected: Abracadabra – a word-based or spoken medicine.

That’s when the earliest written record of abracadabra appears in a Roman medical text called Liber Medicinalis, written by a physician named Quintus Serenus Sammonicus.

His instructions were precise. Write the word ABRACADABRA on parchment or metal. Then write it again below, removing the last letter. Continue line by line until only the letter “A” remains.

The finished inverted triangle would be worn on a string around the neck, and was suggested for someone suffering from a fever. As the word diminished, letter by letter, the illness was believed to fade out too.

Images of reconstructed abracadabra amulets still exist today and are physical evidence that words were once understood as active forces, rather than passive communication.

What Does Abracadabra Mean?There isn’t one agreed upon translation, which is common with magical words. Many scholars trace it to Aramaic, a language closely related to ancient Hebrew, with meanings along the lines of “I create as I speak” or “it will be created in my words.”

Others interpret the word as “let the thing be destroyed,” which fits the idea of illness shrinking away. There are also connections to Hebrew blessing traditions and to a Gnostic figure named Abraxas.

You don’t need a perfect translation to grasp the shared belief underneath the theories. Saying something with intention, was believed to create change. Words shaped reality.

A Form of ProtectionBetween the third and seventh centuries, abracadabra also became a form of protection against misfortune and unseen forces. It was spoken, worn, and traced as a spiritual shield. Breath and sound were the tools.

So when a magician says “abracadabra” before a big reveal, they’re unknowingly echoing an ancient understanding. The moment you speak is the moment something shifts. Words are spells, in the past and still today.

Ancient cultures all over the world shared this concept. Mesopotamian incantations were used to drive out illness. Egyptian healers combined herbs with spoken formulas. Biblical traditions delivered blessings and curses through speech.

To the ancient mind, words were a force. Name something and you gained power over it. Speak a blessing and you invited it closer.

Today witches may talk of spells but the vast majority of the population doesn’t go there. However, it does show up and is acceptable when discussing neuroscience, psychology, and neural pathways. The actual mechanism is quite similar.

See, the stories you repeat to yourself like, “I always mess things up,” “nothing ever works out,” or “I’m too old,” act like incantations. The charm is created through your own voice, and the impact is on your nervous system.

Unfortunately, this type of mantra spoken unconsciously and without intentional crafting, can backfire, and could even prevent growth or improvement.

After more than twenty years working with intuition and mindset, I’ve seen this pattern again and again. Change often doesn’t happen until awareness and usage of the language changes.

The Neuroscience of Self-TalkModern psychology has studied self-talk extensively. Self-talk includes the running commentary in your head and the sentences you speak about yourself and your life.

Supportive, positive self-talk is consistently linked to lower anxiety, better coping skills, and greater resilience. Harsh, critical self-talk is linked to higher stress, increased worry, and decreased performance.

On a brain level, negative language activates threat centers like the amygdala, while balanced, compassionate self-talk engages the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for regulation and problem-solving.

A fascinating 2024 study from the NIH explored what happens when people hear affirming statements spoken in their own voice. Turns out hearing your own voice activates brain regions tied to identity and personal meaning more strongly than listening to someone else’s voice.

This helps explain why a single kind sentence you say to yourself can calm your body, while a harsh one can feel crushing. When you speak to yourself, your brain treats it as deeply personal.

Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to change with experience. Every thought or phrase you repeat creates a pathway. Repeat it often enough and that pathway becomes easier to access.

Negative Inner DialogueIf your inner dialogue constantly says, “I’m stuck” or “nothing changes,” you’re reinforcing that route. When you begin practicing language like, “I’m learning” or “I’m allowed to begin again,” you start forging new trails. At first this might feel uncomfortable, but over time, the brain learns to favor them.

In other words, the magic words you repeat most often becomes your reality. That’s everyday abracadabra isn’t it?

Language affects your inner world and shapes how you perceive and interact with others. The brain loves consistency. It filters information to match the story you tell yourself or others.

That’s how a belief becomes self-fulfilling, not because the universe is against you, but because your nervous system wants coherence.

I’m not suggesting any kind of by passing, ignoring reality, or your feelings. However, you can acknowledge reality and still choose language that leaves room for growth.

Examples include: “This is hard and I’m learning how to handle it.” “This hurts and I’m allowed to receive support.” “This didn’t go how I wanted and I’m still worthy of good things.”

A Powerful Use of WordsThese thoughts or phrases are still like “abracadabra” because they are a powerful use of words. Ancient healers didn’t deny pain or discomfort. They combined practical care with ritual and language and you can do the same.

Abracadabra, in its most empowering interpretation, means “I create as I speak.” Every time you describe who you are or want to become, your brain responds and so does the Universe. Possibilities open or close based on the language you choose.

Listen to the podcast for the visualization I created to leverage Abracadabra and this idea of diminishing letter by letter to change a situation which updates your inner operating system.

As you move through your day, notice how you talk about yourself. You don’t need to monitor every word. Just become curious about the ones that feel heavy or limiting.

Then, gently replace them with language that aligns with the life you want to create. This is modern magic, neuroplasticity, and a daily practice, all in one exercise . Abracadabra and there you go!

Did you ever get a big, bold sign you didn’t request and had no idea what it meant? Such a sign can help you make a good decision.

I’ve Never Seen Anything Like ThisA hawk slammed into my sliding glass door, holding a woodpecker in its talons. They struggled and tore the screen. I was so disturbed that I banged on the door to make it stop.

The hawk flew onto the deck, prey in its grip, sitting there as the life drained out of the woodpecker. I stood there stunned, asking myself, what could this possibly mean?

The BackgroundBefore getting into the symbolism, it helps to know where I was emotionally that day. I had been deep in the process of reworking my branding for the past couple of months, which capped off a long 14 months of rethinking what I offer and who I’m best positioned to help.

There’s no single “right” answer when it comes to branding, but I desperately didn’t want to get it wrong. That fear led to a kind of freeze with overthinking and no forward movement.

Ironically, that same morning I finally made a decision. By the afternoon, I was relaxing for the first time in a while, reading, when the commotion outside my glass door happened. I wasn’t looking for a sign, which made it all the more unsettling.

The BackstoryTo understand what I witnessed and why, I first looked inward. The message that came through was clear. “The time for struggle and indecision was over. It was time to rise above, take action, and engage.” Later, I looked up the symbolism.

The woodpecker is often associated with persistence and attention to detail. Birds of prey, like hawks, represent vision, decisiveness, and the ability to see the bigger picture. Hawks are also widely seen as messengers from spirit and intuition.

When these two show up together, the message becomes hard to miss. For me, this was a dramatic signal that I was entering a new phase. One of transformation and divine timing. Stop getting lost in the details. See the bigger picture. Move on.

That hit home. I had been lost in the details. From a logical standpoint, I was asking all the “right” questions. Would people resonate with my work? Was I making a smart business decision? Did this align with my skills and solve real problems for clients?

When Logic Is a Dead EndFrom an intuitive perspective, the questions were different. Does this feel aligned with my highest good? Does the energy feel expansive? Does it make me happy?

Logic is useful, especially in business. Lists of pros and cons have their place. But at some point, logic had taken me as far as it could. What I needed next was inner knowing.

Turns out branding is more of an art than a science and it left me feeling raw and vulnerable.

The key realization was there’s a big difference between strategic branding and energetic alignment. Logic had led me to a dead end. Now intuition needed to take the lead.

That morning, I finally listened. I made a choice that felt right in my body. And then, just hours later, the hawk and woodpecker appeared.

As a sign, I will absolutely pay attention. The message was clear. Get out of my head. Stop circling the details. Focus on the big picture. Trust how things feel in my body. Then act.

This is how intuition speaks to me when I stop forcing answers. Sometimes gently and other times dramatically. Either way, it gets my attention. And this is a perfect example of how magic shows up too.

My advice as an Intuitive Life Coach is simple…

When you see a sign, pay attention. Reflect onwhat it means to you, and then follow through.**

How Intuition Shows UpThere are actually many ways intuition shows up. Some people receive visual images (clairvoyance). Others hear inner guidance (clairaudience). Some just know without explanation (claircognizance). Still others, receive information through the feelings in the body (clairsentience).

These are all valid. Over time, I’ve learned to use and trust all of them. But connecting with my body is relatively new and it’s been fascinating.

That body-based intuition showed up again recently in a much more ordinary situation. I need a new couch after my last purchase wore out shockingly fast. I visited a couple of higher-end furniture stores and found beautiful options with big price tags.

Then I found a similar couch at a mid-range store for half the price. Logical choice, right? I called a friend with high-end design experience. She agreed the construction and materials were solid so thought it was OK to buy the cheaper one. I was so relieved!

My Body ReactedBut when I went back to return the fabric samples at the high-end store, they placed the fabric on the couch one more time. My body reacted instantly as my shoulders relaxed. I took a deep breath and felt calm and comfortable. That was my answer!

Logically, the cheaper couch made sense. Intuitively, my body told a different story. I trusted it.

This kind of inner knowing doesn’t just apply to big decisions or purchases. It can show up in very personal, physical ways too.

Another Clairsentience ExampleJust before the holidays, I woke up one morning with a frozen shoulder which means severe pain and almost no movement. I tried chiropractic care and acupuncture, with slight improvement. On the fifth day, I heard a single word internally: magnesium.

I took supplements and then soaked in an Epsom salt bath. Within an hour, I could move my arm. Two days later, I was fully healed. Again, my body had the information. I just had to listen. And that’s really the heart of this conversation.

Where do you get stuck when making decisions? Have you exhausted logic and analysis? Have you ignored signs or overridden what your body was telling you?

Decision MakingAt the end of the day, decision making isn’t about finding the perfect answer. It’s about being honest with yourself, especially when logic has done all it can. There are times when further analysis will not produce a result. That’s when it’s time to start listening.

Sometimes intuition whispers. Other times it shows up loudly like a hawk slamming into your window. When something truly feels right, your system relaxes. Your breath deepens. The struggle eases. That’s how you know.

This is not because it makes sense on paper, but because something inside you calms down. When that happens, the decision is already made. Your only job is to honor it.

Awaken Your Sixth SenseIf you want to strengthen your intuitive awareness this year, I have a self-paced program called Awaken Your Sixth Sense, designed to help you recognize and trust how intuition speaks to you. It has seven lessons with lots of methods, tips and experiences, so you can build your intuition and start to trust it more.

And maybe that’s the real invitation. It’s time to practice listening to your inner knowing, and trusting it. That’s how to live aligned with your highest path and your soul.

The latest episode of the Breathe Love & Magic Podcast explores Liberation Magic. We talk about magic and manifestation, and how it can genuinely shift your life. It’s time to move beyond rules and “doing it right” to reconnect with your spiritual core.

This conversation with Maritza Schafer, founder of Bruja School, is one of those grounding and warm reminders that magic isn’t something you learn, but something you remember.

Manifesting Myth Trips People UpHave you ever been told that you’re “not manifesting correctly,” and that’s why what you want hasn’t shown up yet?

What a horrible and discouraging message which could make you want to give up entirely. I remember when someone said it to me!

That’s why Maritza offers Liberation Magic — a way of working with magic that frees you from the metaphysical industry’s criticism, rules, and the idea that you’re somehow doing it wrong. Liberation magic invites you to return to your intuition, your energy, and your deeper spiritual truth.

When things aren’t moving in your life, it’s rarely because you’re broken or incapable. More often, it’s because we’ve been trying to create from the surface instead of from connection. Liberation magic asks you to slow down, drop beneath the noise, and listen for the wisdom that’s already guiding you.

Magic – Technology for TransformationSo what is magic, really? Maritza describes it beautifully as “a technology for transformation.” It’s a collection of tools, practices, and spiritual intentions that help shift what feels stuck and invites something new to emerge.

Magic is far more than passive wishing. It’s intentional, soulful participation with life’s energy!

When you merge a spiritual component with your intentions, something softens and opens. The process doesn’t feel heavy or forced. Your desires have a way of coming into being because they’re rooted in alignment, not effort alone.

Think of it as learning to see your life through a spiritual lens where intention matters, energy matters, and presence itself becomes powerful.

Mystical Garlic PlantingI told a story about using magic when I planted my garlic this fall. Right from the start,

When I planted the garlic, I didn’t just push cloves into the soil, fertilize, water, and walk away. I planted at twilight — that quiet, liminal space between day and night, when the veil feels thinner.

Then, I connected with the land and greeted the spirits and elemental forces. Next, I offered gratitude and asked to collaborate with them as the garden begins it’s cycle of growth again.

The reason is not because someone told me that’s how it’s done or good to do. This is how I live when I’m tuned into nature. As I listen to spirit and connect with my own inner knowing, everything comes alive.

And that’s the heart of liberation magic – where magic and manifestation meet. It’s not dones as a technique, but as a connection to spirit and life itself.

Magic as a Way of LifeMagic isn’t only something you use when you want something to change. It can be how you move through the world.

Maritza encourages her students to deepen their awareness of the moment they’re in — the energy, the land, the subtle signals that are always communicating with us.

That might look like ritual or meditation. You might simply notice your breath while you’re standing at the sink or looking out a window.

When spirituality becomes woven into daily life, you begin to move with the rhythms of the earth instead of against them. Challenges don’t disappear, but your relationship to them changes. You meet life with more grace, more steadiness, and more trust.

Remember the MagicMany people are drawn to magic because something feels missing. Maritza about this clearly —longing is often a call back to spiritual connection that’s been overshadowed by responsibility, expectation, and noise.

As you reconnect, you remember something essential. You are not separate from spirit, but part of it. Remembering brings a deep sense of belonging and the awareness that you are a magical being with access to far more wisdom than you might imagine.

Let Go of “Should” and Find What’s TrueOne of the most liberating aspects of Maritza’s work is releasing the burden of expectation. There is no single right way to practice magic. No gold star for doing it perfectly. No spiritual hierarchy. Your path is sacred because it’s your own.

When students let go of comparison and external judgment, they often feel an enormous sense of relief. Magic becomes about self-discovery instead of performance. Confidence grows naturally when you stop trying to meet someone else’s definition of spiritual correctness.

Walking Your Own Spiritual PathLiberation magic doesn’t require elaborate rituals or rigid structures. It asks for awareness. By understanding your energy and setting intention with presence, magic can move through your everyday life — in conversations, decisions, and quiet moments of choice.

One of the greatest gifts of a spiritual path is realizing that the power you’ve been seeking has been with you all along. Each step taken with awareness makes the next one clearer, lighter, and more enchanted.

Energy Awareness as a Path to FreedomAt the heart of liberation magic is energetic awareness. When you learn to notice energy, both yours and the space around you, you gain the power to choose. Simple practices like pausing, breathing, and checking in with yourself can shift everything.

Imagine a stressful moment. Now, instead of reacting, you can simply stop, breathe, and notice what’s present. That awareness alone can move you from chaos into calm, from contraction into clarity.

Living an Empowered, Magical LifeUltimately, liberation magic is about feeling empowered. It strengthens your spiritual connection and reminds you of your place within the larger web of life. From that place, change becomes possible through alignment.

Magic isn’t something you do once in a while. As Maritza so beautifully teaches, it’s a way of living. You trust your gut, cut through the noise, and allow life to work with you instead of against you.

Honestly, that’s the kind of magic I want for everyone.

The post The Extraordinary Way Magic Can Free Up Your Life appeared first on Intuitive Edge.

If you’ve been scrolling lately, you’ve probably noticed lots of comet chatter about 3I/ATLAS. What’s all the bruhaha about and what does it mean for you? I’ll cut through the cosmic fluff and make this simple.

If you want to attend the Free Winter Solstice event on Sunday, 12/21 at 4pm ET, RSVP here to let me know.

What Is 3I/ATLAS?Let’s start with the basics. 3I/ATLAS is an interstellar comet, meaning it’s not from our solar system. It’s a cosmic traveler cruising at over 100,000 miles an hour.

It will make its closest approach to Earth around December 19, 2025, which means around 170 million miles away. So yes, it’s rare and worth paying attention to. But physically? You’re fine. Humanity is fine. The planet is fine.

Now spiritually… this is where things get interesting.

People Are Lit Up About This CometAstronomers love it because it’s only our third known interstellar visitor after ‘Oumuamua and Borisov. But the spiritual community is lit up because of the timing, the symbolism, and the energetic ripples many intuitives are already feeling.

Channelers are comparing notes. Astrologers are cross-referencing charts. Energy sensitives have that familiar “something’s shifting” hum inside their chest.

Think of 3I/ATLAS as a celestial tuning fork drifting through our sky, humming just enough that the sensitive folks among us feel the vibration before it even arrives.

Many spiritual teachers call it a light-packed traveler carrying clarity, recalibration, and what some describe as “reset frequency.” Not in a dramatic destruction way, but in a gentle, rebalancing way. Think of it as the energetic version of straightening your crown and realigning your inner compass.

It’s as if the Universe is whispering, “Time to recalibrate.”

What Does the Comet Offer?Potentially, so many good things come with this comet including, an inner reset, energetic balance, heightened intuition, a return to your aligned Self, and all sorts of positive upgrades in how you sense and navigate the world.

The most important point, in my opinion? Nothing is happening to you because you’re not a victim of 3I/ATLAS. Instead, you’re being invited to partner with it.

Symbolic Meaning Hidden in the NameNow let’s discuss the metaphysics for a moment because “3I/ATLAS” is full of symbolic goodies.

According to numerology, “3” is about creation. think of the cycle of birth, death, rebirth. It’s the number that says something new is coming. Then the letter “I” points to intuition, identity, insight, and the observing Self.

Put these together and you get creation plus consciousness. A cosmic reminder that you are not a passive passenger in your own life. You’re a co-creator!

What about “3rd Eye + Atlas”The third eye is your intuitive center, your inner vision, your ability to sense truth without proof.
Atlas is the top vertebra that holds your head, the mythological guardian who carried the world, and the name we give to global maps.

Suddenly 3I/ATLAS becomes a message about higher perception, energetic support, nervous-system alignment, and carrying a new level of awareness in the body. That’s the kind of upgrade I can get behind.

Why the Timing MattersAstronomically, the closest approach is December 19, 2025. Spiritually, many view the full 12/18–12/19 window as an energetic corridor. It’s a moment when life pauses just long enough for you to feel the subtle shift before the next level loads.

And let’s not forget that 2025 is a nine year according to numerology, which is all about completion. Things naturally fall away, resolve, or wrap up. So the timing of this comet is pretty synchronistic, don’t you think?

How Might 3I/ATLAS Affect You?• Clearer intuition
• Emotional clearing
• Heightened sensitivity
• A desire to rest
• Sudden clarity about what’s ending
• Fresh inspiration

This comet is giving you time to ask yourself important questions such as:

“Are your actions matching your intentions?”
“Are you living as the person you say you want to be?”
“What truth are you finally ready to honor?”

The good news is there’s no judgment or no punishment, only clarity.

Balance Masculine & Feminine EnergyAnother theme connected to 3I/ATLAS is the balancing of masculine and feminine energy, which are the divine polarities within you. Think of these opposites:

• Drive and receptivity
• Action and restoration
• Doing and being
• Protecting and allowing
• Structure and flow

When one side dominates, imbalance shows up in your body, your choices, your relationships. The comet’s energy highlights what needs attention, like sunlight revealing dust on the bookshelf you swear was clean yesterday.

Now don’t think 3I/ATLAS will do the shift for you, but it helps you see where the shift is ready and waiting. It shines clarifying light into your world, so you can make the upgrade and let your divine feminine rise.

How to Work With the 12/18 PortalThe practices don’t need to be dramatic or ceremonial. Let them be simple:

1. Conduct a gentle review of the past year and ask: What is ending? What no longer resonates? What feels ready to be reborn?

2. Balance your masculine and feminine. When you take action, then be sure to rest. If you move, then afterwards stretch. Honor both your fire and your flow.

3. Third-eye alignment. You might try light meditation, intuitive journaling, or placing one hand on your heart and the other on your belly, while breathing slowly.

4. Neck and Atlas stretches. Consider chin tucks, shoulder rolls, gentle neck tilts.
Tell your body, “I’m ready to carry awareness with ease.” or “Thank you for all that you do for me, I love you.”

5. Grounding. Take a slow walk outside in nature and pay attentionto your surroundings. Send roots down into the earth to connect with Mother Earth and everything she embodies. Then allow that energy to rise into you feet and up through all your chakras. So nourishing!

What’s the Real Message of 3I/ATLASHere’s the bottom line. There’s no dramatic upheaval coming. Instead, this comet acts as a reminder to say you’re evolving, awakening, and rebalancing. And the good news is that the Universe is supporting every step.

Think of this event as a powerful invitation to trust and strengthen your intuition, allow your divine feminine energy to rise and feel vibrantly alive and aligned. It’s a gentle guide with impeccable timing. Cosmic synchronicity at its finest.

As 3I/ATLAS moves through our sky on 12/18 and 12/19, take a moment to choose what this means for you. The power isn’t out there in the sky or anywhere outside yourself. It’s in you. It is you.

3I/ATLAS simply arrives at the perfect moment to help you remember your truth, your path, and your power. Are you ready to embrace what’s next? I sure hope so!

Have you dabbled in communication with animals? Even just for fun or out of curiosity? If so, you already know how surprising, heart-opening, and downright magical it can be. And if you haven’t tried it yet… buckle up. The possibilities for emotional healing — plus personal and spiritual growth — are honestly astonishing.

Animal CommunciationThat’s exactly what I talked about with animal communicator Genie Joseph in this week’s whimsical episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. Genie brought stories, wisdom, and humor to t he show. Our conversation was a reminder that animals are so much more than companions — they’re teachers, healers, guides, and sometimes even philosophers in furry bodies.

The Philosophical RabbitGenie started by sharing an enchanting story about her friend Paloma, an animal communicator in Switzerland. Paloma’s rabbit, Spot, was not your average carrot-crunching cutie. He had a giant personality.

According to Spot, he was a philosopher. And he had no problem telling Paloma that she simply wasn’t on his level. Apparently, he’d had a few human lives. At one point he literally said, “You’re not at my level. Go back and study.” Can you imagine being put down by a rabbit?

Each time Paloma returned, eager to collaborate, Spot sent her back to do more inner work. Only after she’d grown spiritually and emotionally did he finally agree to partner with her on writing a book.

This story cracked me up, but it also highlights something profound. Animals have rich inner worlds and unique perspectives. They’re funny, wise, stubborn, intuitive, and deeply aware, often far more than we give them credit for.

Wolfie Knew His Time Was UpNext came the story that changed Genie’s life and honestly, it gave me chills. Her beloved cat, Wolfie, introduced her to the mystical world of animal communication.

Toward the end of his life, Genie was torn about what to do. The vet suggested euthanasia, but her heart wasn’t ready. She felt confused, guilty, and overwhelmed. This what people feel when you love an animal deeply and want to do right by them.

In a moment of desperation and tenderness, she asked Wolfie what he wanted and to her complete surprise, he answered. Wolfie telepathically communicated that he wanted to pass peacefully at home.

He provided the exact day and time he intended to leave his body which was between 3 and 5 AM. And just as he said, Wolfie passed at 3:30 AM.

This experience affirmed for Genie communication with animals was real. That moment became her turning point, the doorway that led her into a life long devotion to understanding and teaching intuitive animal communication. You might think of her as a pet psychic.

Everyday Wisdom from AnimalsWolfie’s guidance started earlier in as he helped Genie with everyday decisions, including her movie projects. If she wasn’t sure which script to choose, she’d spread them out on the floor. Wolfie would quietly wander over and plop himself on the one that ended up being the best choice. He was always right.

Eventually, Genie trusted him so much she referred to him as her “business partner.” Animals pick up your moods, your energy, your hesitations, andyour excitement. Sometimes they see the bigger picture long before humans do.

It makes you think, how many times has your pet has been trying to tell you something, but you just didn’t realize you were being guided?

Healing with Animal TherapyGenie then shifted into the deeper purpose behind her work, which is emotional healing.

She shared the story of Oscar, a rescued dog with scars, missing teeth, and a heartbreaking past. Yet, despite everything he’d been through, Oscar became a powerful therapy partner for soldiers suffering from PTSD. That’s because Oscar had a rare gift.

He could sense the person in the room who was in the most pain. Not the loudest or the one with the biggest personality. Oscar sensed which person silently felt like they were at the end of their rope and were at the greatest risk of suicide.

He’d wander over, rest his head on their lap, and stay with them until their energy softened. Time after time, he found the soldier who needed him most. Genie watched veterans open emotionally, often for the first time in years. Oscar’s presence reached places that traditional therapy often couldn’t go where trauma hides.

Animals don’t judge. They don’t push, need you to “explain.” They simply see you and comfort you. Sometimes, that’s just what someone needs to begin healing.

Communication with AnimalsOne of the things Genie emphasized which I loved, is that animals have feelings and very real opinions. She shared the story of a horse who became cranky and withdrawn after being moved to a new barn. Nothing seemed physically wrong, but his behavior was off.

When Genie tuned in, she discovered he was upset because he used to spend all day with his companion, a female horse and not just the evenings. He missed the 24/7 connection with her.

Once his caretakers understood this, they changed his living situation and suddenly, the horse relaxed and returned to his bright, affectionate self. Sometimes the fix is emotional, not physical and the animal is just waiting for someone to ask what is needed.

Conversations with Animals Who PassedGenie also talked about communicating with animals who have passed on. According to her, this can be even easier because they’re no longer limited by their bodies. The messages they send are often clearer, more detailed, and incredibly loving.

People who felt guilty about euthanasia decisions or worried they hadn’t done enough often found deep peace after hearing from their pet. These conversations helped them release burdens and understand their animals truly knew how loved they were.

It’s comforting to think that your pets still check in and are available to offer guidance from the other side.

Marvels of Intuitive ConnectionAt one point, I shared some of my own experiences with intuitive communication with animals. Like the time I negotiated with starlings who were dive-bombing a pool. Or the rabbit who mucnhed down my roses until I had a little “chat” with him.

These moments may seem small, but they show how communication can create understanding, harmony, and even cooperation between humans and the wild world around us. Animals listen, respond and they appreciate being spoken to with respect and awareness.

Exploring the Human–Animal BondMy conversation with Genie opened a doorway into an entirely different way of relating to our animal companions. Her work through The Human Animal Connection helps pet owners worldwide deepen their relationships, understand their animal’s inner world, and dissolve emotional barriers.

This is much bigger that solving behavior problems. This is really about soulful partnerships. Animals speak to you all the time, through energy, intuition, behavior, and subtle emotional cues. When you slow down and listen, you discover they’ve been sharing wisdom, comfort, and support all along.

The Secret World of Animals Is WaitingThis week’s episode is a beautiful reminder of the secret world waiting right at your feet, curled up on your couch, napping on your lap, or chirping outside your window.

Your animals may have insights you’ve never imagined and it’s possible they’ve been trying to help you more than you realize. And they may have little pearls of wisdom (or sass!) just waiting for you to hear.

So tune in, get curious, and let the magic of communication with animals open your heart in new ways. Or get a session with an animal communicator like Genie to speak with your pet for you.

BIO – Genie JosephGenie Joseph, PhD, is the Executive Director of The Human-Animal Connection, a nonprofit that brings therapy animals to anyone in need of healing, comfort, and joy. As an Animal Chaplain and Animal Communicator, Genie helps people better understand their animal’s behavior by asking them what they are feeling and what they want most from their person

Today’s episode is a celebration! I have now been hosting this podcast for five years. Can you believe it? I’m not sure I do.

Over 250 Episodes!Yes, five years of podcasting and over 250 episodes! Whoa, that’s a lot! Back in 2021, when I first hit record, I had no idea what would unfold and it’s become one of the greatest gifts of my life.

I’ve shared so much of my own spiritual journey as well as that of my guests. Topics have included energy work and healing, manifesting, intuition and divination, mediumship, animal communication, talking with plants, tarot, past lives and the Akashic Records, nature spirits and faeries, and so much more.

It’s all been to help you live a life filled with joy and move past anything that gets in your way. Because when you commune with spirit, so much more becomes possible.

Beneath all these conversations, there’s been one main intention: Help you trust your inner wisdom, so life feels a little more magical and a lot more aligned.

While the topics have been fun and fascinating, what matters most to me is how many of you have written to say an episode shifted something inside you. That just thrills me to no end!

Every episode, at its core, is really about remembering who you are underneath the noise of everyday life. The point is to get past the cosmic fluff and down to the bottom line of what truly makes a difference for you.

What I’ve Learned In 5 YearsIntuition is not a gift but an innate resource that every single person can access and learn to use. When you learn to flex this muscle and trust your inner wisdom, you can conquer problems and move past blocks.

The energy on the planet has been changing so rapidly that your access to spiritual wisdom and energy healing has been ramped up and made more available than ever.

And last but far from least: magic is all around you, ready for you to notice it and take advantage of everything it offers.

So, for this anniversary episode, I thought it’d be fun to walk down this magical memory lane. I selected an episode from each year, all the way back to the beginning in 2021. These are conversations and topics that lit me up or revealed something big and reflect my growth and hopefully yours too.

Highlights By YearBack in 2021, when the show first launched and I was still figuring out what this podcast wanted to become. One of the very first episodes was about the Magic of Nature Spirits — elementals, devas, all the beings I’d been seeing and communicating with in my own backyard. I shared stories like watching a tiny bootprint make an impression in the grass down and then spring back up right in front of my eyes.

I also spoke to Pan, the kind of the elementals in my garden and even asking my string beans why they weren’t producing and heard an answer! That episode set the tone for everything that followed, so let’s revisit it now.

Let’s jump to 2022. This was a year when synchronicity was showing up everywhere — not just for me, but in the lives of many of the guests I interviewed. One of my favorites was my conversation with Jan Stringer, who shared how Sacred Synchronicities pulled her away from a corporate career and eventually even beyond traditional coaching into intuitive and healing work. It was a beautiful reminder that Spirit always knows how to get our attention. Here’s a clip from that episode.”

Moving into 2023, the theme of the unseen continued — but with a little more sparkle and play. That year, I sat down with my friend Barb Gallagher to talk about her experiences with the faeries. She has a faery guide, she’s seen faeries many times, and she shared some incredible stories. I even added a couple of my own. It was such a fun and magical conversation. Let’s listen in.

Medical Intuitive & MoreThen came 2024 — a year filled with deeper healing and spiritual expansion. One of the standout conversations was with Christine Lang, a medical intuitive who left a high-powered career as a corporate lawyer after debilitating allergies pushed her toward energy work. She talked about her journey through Reiki, developing her intuitive abilities, and how to elevate your energy so you can communicate with your spirit guides. Here’s a moment from that fascinating interview.

Now in 2025, which has been a powerful, transformational year for both the podcast and the planet. One of the most meaningful episodes for me was my interview with the woman who leads the Net of Light group — a community working with the Great Council of Grandmothers. We talked about the divine feminine rising to restore balance and support the world through these times of change. Let me share a snippet from that conversation.”

2025 has also been the year I started sharing a lot more of my own thoughts and experiences in solo episodes. Two that really resonated with many of you were Light vs. Dark — Who’s Winning? (spoiler: the light!) and Crumble vs. Shift, where we talked about the energetic power of the words we choose.

Looking Back at the TapestryAs I look back over these five years, what strikes me most is how each conversation, whether it was with a healer, a mystic, a faery friend, or a grandmother of the Net of Light, was really part of a bigger tapestry. It’s like a tapestry of awakening, connection, and remembering who we truly are. And you’ve been woven into it right along with me.

This podcast has grown because you’ve been willing to explore these topics and ideas with me. Opening your heart, asking deeper questions, using your tinuition, and stepping into the magic of your own inner wisdom.

As I move into year six, my intention is to go deeper into living an intuitively led life, heightening awareness, and noticing the breadcrumbs of guidance Spirit shares with us every single day.

Not just clarity and alignment, but a more attuned way of being. A way of moving through the world where you feel supported, connected, and guided from within and by spirit.

Thank you for listening and walking this path with me.

The craziest season of the year has begun. The minute Halloween is over, Black Friday and the holiday circus come to town.

You know you’re going to get super busy. There’s too much to do. The stress is already building. Cooking, cleaning, entertaining, decorating, gift buying and wrapping. And let’s not forget all the socializing.

Most women shoulder the emotional and sometimes physical labor of the season. You think about everyone’s feelings, comfort, dietary preferences, and more. It’s a lot.

No wonder it feels like a giant snowball rolling downhill, gaining speed until you feel like it bowls you over. What can you do?

I’ve Got Your Back!I’ve got some simple ways to help you plan to take care of yourself during the holiday rush. The best thing is to get out ahead of that snowball to combat the overwhelm.

Below you’ll find eight simple and quick self-care rituals that work like a charm to help you relax, stay centered, and appreciate yourself for who you are and all that you do. I encourage you to try several of them to see what works best for you before you get knee-deep in the season.

Knowing which rituals work for you gives you an advantage when things get busy. You won’t have to sit there thinking, “What should I do?” You’ll know which of these self-care tips will serve you best. And then you can take care of yourself like it’s a no-brainer.

Magical Self-Care for Low Stress Holidays1. HummingNeed to calm down and relax your nervous system fast? Maybe you don’t have time for a bath or 30-minute meditation. Try humming!

Humming is perfect for soothing your nervous system — research shows it raises nitric oxide levels in the body, which eases tension. Spiritually, humming also clears the throat chakra and brings your energy back into vibrational alignment.

Practice slow, mindful breathing, and with each exhale, gently hum a single note with your mouth closed. It’s surprisingly calming.

  1. Daily Oneness MinuteIn everyday life, most people forget that they are one with everything. You are a child of the Universe. You are made of the same material as the stars – some say you are made of stardust.
    How amazing is that?

Yet, you rarely stop to feel that connection. However, the more you remember the oneness, the more your body relaxes. Instead of feeling separate and alone, remember that angels, your higher self, spirit guides, and ancestors are always with you.

To start your Oneness Minute, place your hand on your heart and the other on your belly and take a deep breath. Then let yourself feel the truth of who you are and how you are part of everything. This might just be the most peaceful minute of your entire day.

  1. Brew Tea with IntentionPrepare an herbal tea with purpose. Choose herbs for heart healing (like hibiscus), calming (like chamomile or Tulsi), or warmth (like apple cinnamon). While pouring water over the herbs or tea bag, imagine sending your intention into the brew.

Once the tea is brewed, hold the warm cup in your hands. Feel the heat against your palms. Let the steam rise to your face. Set an intention and imagine infusing the liquid with that energy.

When you sip, you’re literally drinking in the energy of your intention. I consider this to be self-care and self-love because you are taking a moment to think about yourself – what do you want? Getting clear and setting an intention is important “me time”.

  1. “Enchanted” Body OilSelf-care and self-love are intertwined. Applying body oil or body butter after a bath, shower, or anytime is truly an act of love. You can add an essential oil to a carrier oil like almond or coconut, or put a few drops into any body butter or cream.

When you massage your body with your chosen oil, express gratitude for each body part. Think about what that part helps you do. Spend extra time on areas you typically criticize because this is where love is most needed.

Everyone has parts of their body they wish were different, but this is a time to appreciate all of you. As you love and accept yourself for who you are right now, confidence builds and your vibration rises. Love all your parts and make them soft and smell fabulous.

  1. Anoint YourselfThe act of anointing is sacred. When you put an oil on your body with intention, you are taking a sacred action to honor yourself and connect with the divine. You can focus on attracting abundance, healing, or staying calm and balanced. The choice is yours.

In the past, anointing was used for king-making ceremonies and religious rites. Prophets, priests, and priestesses all used this sacred tool as part of their rituals and it’s still used today.

I recommend using a quality essential oil like doTerra, but there are many excellent brands.
Before applying, if you have sensitive skin, mix your essential oil with a carrier oil like jojoba, sweet almond, or coconut oil. You only need a few drops of the essential oil in the carrier oil to get the benefits.

Try a blend of rose, jasmine, or vanilla oil and gently anoint your wrists, heart, and third eye. Citrus scents are also cheerful mood elevators. This ancient ritual honors the spirit and invokes kindness toward self. A perfect option that’s simple self-care.

  1. Self-Love SigilA sigil is a symbol you create from your intention. You can make up a symbol or use the letters from a phrase you’ve chosen.

For example: “I Love Myself Today.” Remove vowels and duplicate consonants. Then, from the remaining letters, create a symbol by connecting them. Turn them sideways, stack them, overlap them however you want.

I recommend putting your symbol on the back of a business card so it can fit in your wallet, under your pillow, or on your altar. The business card has some weight to it versus paper to last longer.

Next, charge the sigil with intention. Think about your statement and send energy into the card. You can use the palms of your hands or visualize the energy flowing in.

You’ll know the sigil is fully charged when you feel a tiny shift that might be a sense of calm, completion, warmth, or simply “that’s enough.” Then put it in your waller or leave it on your altar or night table. Once it’s activated, your sigil takes over attracting what you want.

  1. Three Things I Love About Myself JournalThis is a spinoff from a recent episode about writing love notes to yourself. If that feels too big of a leap, start with a journal dedicated to self-love and write down three things you love about yourself each day.

If you get stuck, use these prompts to think of something:

  • About your personality
  • What you did today that makes you happy or proud
  • About your physical self

This small ritual is especially powerful during hectic holiday times. Recognizing yourself for what is good or even great is a game changer. Take the time to appreciate the countless good things about who you are. Acknowledge yourself to reduce stress and feel more grounded and at ease.

  1. Self-Love Simmer PotA simmer pot is simply a large pot filled with water and herbs that simmers on the stove for 1–3 hours. It will fill your home with a natural fragrance and infuse the space with the vibration of the ingredients.

This recipe is for self love and it smells amazing. If you think this is too much, don’t add everything in. Choose what calls to you from this list of herbs and spices. There’s no doing this wrong, so enjoy the process and the scent.

Here’s the recipe for self-love:

  • 3–4 cups of water
  • A pinch of Himalayan salt (cleansing + grounding)
  • A handful of dried or fresh rose petals (love + emotional healing)
  • Rosemary (protection + clarity)
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup (sweetness, abundance, transformation)
  • Sliced apple (health, longevity, knowledge, abundance)
  • Cinnamon stick or ground cinnamon (fire + passion + abundance)
  • 1 tsp vanilla (warmth + love + luck)
  • Mint (vitality + uplifted mood)

Let it simmer and scent your home, but watch to make sure the water doesn’t boil away. Take a moment to breathe in the love and magic it radiates. This is so much better than chemically made scents — it’s pure magic.

You Are the MagicAs you move through the season, remember that you are the magic in your home, your family, and your life. Even a few moments of self-care can shift everything.

So be gentle with yourself, honor your energy, and let these simple rituals hold you through the busy days ahead. You deserve to feel supported, centered, and deeply loved—especially by yourself.

Recently Kim Kardashian took and failed the California bar exam. Sorry, Kim. And her reaction was, “All those psychics who told me I’d pass are liars.” What?

You Can’t Win the Blame GameKim’s frustration and disappointment are totally understandable. Failure stinks! But blaming the psychics for this mishap? That part makes no sense. So, let’s break this down.

  1. Psychics give a snapshot in time of what might happen. Readings reveal possibilities, not fixed outcomes.
  2. Not sure what she was told about timing. Did they say she’d pass the first time… or simply that she’d pass? Those are very different predictions.
  3. If she passes next time, those psychics will be correct. One failed attempt doesn’t cancel the larger perspective on passing the bar. Maybe they weren’t specific enough.
  4. Timing is the toughest part of psychic work. Many believe spirit doesn’t follow linear time the way humans do. Meanwhile, several scientific theories rooted in Einstein’s work suggest all moments may exist simultaneously.That creates a challenge when people ask, “When will I meet my love?” or “When will this happen?”And to be honest, there are some things spirit just won’t tell you because it will interfere with the lesson you are learning.
  5. What did Kim’s own intuition say? It’s unclear whether she checked in with her inner knowing or handed full responsibility to the psychics.
  6. Let’s be honest — who wants to tell Kim Kardashian she’s going to fail? Psychics are human. They want to please, especially when reading for someone influential. Even if a psychic sensed she might struggle, delivering a message like that isn’t easy and can feel ethically tricky.Personally, I wouldn’t give a simple yes-or-no answer either. I’d redirect the question toward something more supportive and actionable like, “What do I need to know to pass? Is anything blocking me?” That’s far more helpful than predicting an outcome.
  7. Who is actually responsible for passing the bar? Not the psychics! Kim herself is the only one responsible for the outcome of her test taking. Their predictions (right or wrong) didn’t cause her to fail. If she took encouraging readings as an excuse to study less, that’s her choice and her consequence.Between study habits, stress, test preparation, and her reliance on AI tools, many factors play into exam performance. And remember: only 55% of first-time California bar exam takers pass. She has plenty of company in her experience.
  8. Perhaps this is a life lesson in humility. Whatever Kim is meant to learn from this setback, it’s her karma, her growth, and her responsibility. It sure isn’t up to the psychics.

Readings Are Not Short CutsPsychic insight is never meant to be a shortcut, but used to shine a little light where life feels foggy. When you rely on predictions instead of your own inner knowing, disappointment is almost guaranteed.

Trusting psychic guidance is best when done as a companion to your own inner wisdom. Don’t let external information replace your own inner knowing.

Blaming the psychics misses the bigger picture. Intuition and spiritual guidance are invitations to deepen self-trust and knowledge rather than promises for specific outcomes. Life is shaped by preparation, effort, emotion, energy, timing, and yes… a bit of magic.

This whole story is a powerful reminder that when you hand over your power to someone else’s prediction, you lose your connection to your own power. Intuition works best when you stay accountable, grounded, and willing to do the work required for what you want.

So whether you’re taking an essential exam or facing a major life decision, let this be your takeaway – Trust your gut, seek guidance if you want it, but keep your hands on the wheel. That’s where your strength and your success truly come from.

If you’re on a spiritual path, you’ve probably noticed certain number patterns popping up again and again. They’re called Angel Numbers.

Angel Numbers Are Not RandomThese are more than random occurences. They provide messages from the Universe, your guides, angels, or your higher self. Think of them as gentle nudges saying, “I’ve got you and here’s some guidance.”

The term angel numbers was popularized by Doreen Virtue in her 2005 book Angel Numbers. But the idea of numbers holding spiritual power goes way back. The ancient Greeks believed in the divine significance of numbers, and Pythagoras saw reality itself as shaped by numerical vibrations.

Everything in the universe is energy, and numbers carry their own energy and meaning. Doreen simply built on this, suggesting that certain sequences are messages from guardian angels. When you think about it, it’s like a modern extension of ancient numerology.

Evidence of Angelic GuidanceAngel numbers are very much like supportive reminders that you’re never alone. The Universe uses patterns, synchronicities, and signs to communicate with you and offer guidance.

I call this “spiritual breadcrumbing” but not like in dating where you aren’t getting quality time from someone. This is a great use of breadcrumbs because the Universe leads you one step at a time to your highest good. But this only works if you pay attention.

When you see a number sequence, pause for a moment. Ask yourself, “What was I thinking or feeling just now?” Or, “What might my soul be trying to tell me?” Sometimes these numbers are wake-up calls disguised as simple coincidences.

The Brink of TransformationLast week, I took a three-day vacation with my husband to Lake Winnipesaukee in New Hampshire. We stopped in Wolfeboro, a tiny town with two metaphysical shops.

In the first one, we didn’t buy anything, but there was a small plaque with the number 555. My husband picked it up and started reading about it, which surprised me since he’s not usually into spirituality.

When I asked if he liked what he was reading about that number, he said yes. Then I asked if he’d like me to paint a 555 plaque for him, and he said yes again! The number 555 is about transformation and he is certainly on the brink and headed in that direction.

That moment reminded me how these numbers show up for all of us, sometimes in the most unexpected ways. Inspired, I want to share some of the most common angel numbers, what they mean with you and activities you can do to apply their energy.

If you doubt your ability to hear intuitive guidance, this Question & Answer episode will clear that up, revealing essential secrets to trust your intuition.

Have you ever wondered if that quiet inner nudge was really your intuition—or just your imagination running wild? You’re not alone. I hear this question all the time, and honestly, it’s one of my favorites because it opens the door to how our intuitive guidance really works.

Q: What Exactly Is Intuition?Intuition is a quiet inner system to access your own guidance or inner wisdom. It doesn’t shout, “Turn left now!” or flash neon signs. In general, it’s more like a gentle knowing that lands in your body which is steady, calm, and quietly certain.

It might show up as a voice your hear or a vision you see. You might have a sense of knowing or something you feel in your body. These are actually the four “clairs” including clairaudient – hearing, clairvoyant – seeing, claircognizant – knowing, and clairsentient – feeling.

Now how do you know it’s not your intuition? It could be wishful thinking or anxious overthinking, when your body feels jittery and anxious. Your inner guidance expands you, and everything else constricts your energy.

Ignoring Spirit MessagesSitting on a park bench with a guy on date #4, he was talking about all the things we could do together that summer. I was loving it thinking he was really into me. Then out of nowhere, I heard a loud clera voice saying, “You are not special to him.”

I was shocked and attrributed this to my own fears. Unfortunately, it was a warning and 100% true. I never saw him again after that day. But I didn’t listen to the loud and clear message from spirit which was really too bad, since this broke my heart.

I must say, this was a good lesson in respecting a warning message and tursting my intuition. Now, I always pay attention to the warnings I receive. Thankfully, this doesn’t happen often. But it’s a great example of how your higher self, angels, spirit guides or even your ancestors watch over and try to guide you.

Q: Is Intuition for “Spiritual People” Or Can Anyone Access It?Everyone has intuition. Truly. It’s not for some spiritual elite club, but part of being human. Science even backs this up. Turns out women’s brains are wired for rapid, intuitive decision-making, blending logic, intuition, and emotion seamlessly.

Not only that but women have more connective tissue between the two hemispheres which is why we are naturally more intuitive than men! That’s why it’s called women’s intuition, right?

What makes the difference is practice. When you practice, you sharpen the signal and increae your skillfor getting the messages and guidance. It’s like turning up the volume on a radio station that’s been playing all along.

People Who Use Intuition Have 9 Huge Advantages

Q: How Do You Tell the Difference Between Intuition and Fear or Ego?This might be easier than you think. If you ask about taking a new job, pay attention to how you feel in your body. What do you notice? Do you feel good,comfortable and at ease? That would be intuitive guidance.

Or do you have a pitt in your stomach or feel anxiety? Fear tends to be loud and stand out. Your ego overanalyzes, criticizes, and says things like “this is too good to be true.”

Intuition feels like quiet confidence. It simply offers the truth of your own inner wisdom. You can feel it in your body as peace, clarity, or grounded energy.

Q: Why Does Intuition Feel Harder as You Get Older?Ah, midlife. You’re wiser, yes, but your brain has a lot more experience and responsibilities. You also have had more time with analyzing and using your logic. Both of these tend to muffle those subtle intuitive nudges.

No worries. Intuition never leaves you. It might get quieter until you slow down and decide to listen again. When you do that, your inner wisdom will reappear adn step up to provide the guidance you seek, just like when you were younger.

Q: What Does Intuition Feel Like in the Body?For many, it’s a calm certainty, gentle goosebumps, or energy rushes. Some people can tingles in their hands. It can be so subtle that you might miss it if you’re not paying full attention. The body is your tuning fork for your truth and wisdom.

It’s your job to notice how it feels to you in your body and then watch out for that occurring, letting you know it’s time to trust your intuition or messages from spirit.

Q: What about Signs from Spirit?Signs are best usesd as a confirmation. You can ask your spirit guides for a sign of confirmation if you’re headed in the right direction. If you see that sign, then you know your in alignment with your highest good.

Spirit loves to provide you with symbols. A feather on your path, a song lyric that lands perfectly, or a sudden flash of warmth in your heart. These gifts or coincidences show up often and easily. The more you notice them, the more they appear.

I recommend choosing the sign you want to see, otherwise you might be left wondering what the sign is and never know for sure. And you don’t always have to use the same sign. Feel free to change it up. Just let your guides know what you want to see.

Q: How To Make Intuition Part of Your Daily Life?Start small. Ask simple questions, notice the sensations that follow, and track your intuitive hits. Keep a quick journal or voice memo of what you sensed and how it turned out.

Having a track record allows you to build confidence in your inner wisdom. In addition, gratitude amplifies the energy. Be sure to thank your intuition when it gets something right (which is more often than you might think).

Over time, intuition will become your natural navigation system. You won’t have to ask, “Is this intuition because you’ll just know.

Every October, witches pop up everywhere with pointy hats, broomsticks, and black cats. It’s fun on the surface, but beneath all that playfulness lies a deeper story.

A Centuries-Old FearFor many intuitive, spiritual, creative women, the word witch still stirs something ancient. It can be a mix of fascination and fear.

If you’ve ever dimmed your light, held your tongue, or second-guessed your intuition, so you wouldn’t stand out too much, you may be feeling the effects of the Witch Wound.

I never thought I had this. But after a recent healing session with my friend and Holy Fire Reiki practitioner Cindy Bain, I discovered layers of subconscious fear I hadn’t known were there.. She found fears quietly shaping how safe I felt being fully visible in my magic.

So let’s talk about what the Witch Wound really is, where it comes from, and how we can finally heal it.

Origin of the Word “Witch”The word witch comes from the Old English wicce (female) and wicca (male), first used around 890 CE. It originally meant a person who worked with the unseen world. It was the name for someone skilled in herbs, healing, divination, and nature’s cycles. There was nothing dark or sinister about it.

But as Christianity spread across Europe, suspicion of independent spiritual practices grew. Healing, astrology, and herbalism were once honored skills of wise women. But, they became dangerous.

By the 16th century, “witch” took on a fearful meaning, and what followed were centuries of persecution, mistrust, and pain.

Before she became the outcast, the witch was the wise woman. She was a midwife, healer, and community guide whose wisdom came from nature and Spirit, not the church.

As patriarchal systems tightened control, the wise woman’s independence became defiance and her intuition became a threat.

However, she never quite disappeared. Instead, she went underground, hiding in stories, in the land, and, I believe, in our DNA.

Past Life TraumaI’ve seen echoes of those times in my own soul history. In one lifetime, I was a herbalist living at the edge of a village. People avoided me unless they needed my help. I was lonely, but I always served when requested.

During a healing meditation in this lifetime, I saw that woman. She was cloaked, hidden, and separate. The woman leading the session suggested I let the cloak fall. When I did, I felt an energetic ripple travel through time, releasing emotions from all the lives that followed.

In another life, I was a wealthy woman in 1400s Italy, practicing ritual magic with a group of people. When soldiers stormed in, we were all executed. Watching that memory, I heard a voice say, “That’s what happens when you play with power.”

For centuries, my soul equated power with danger. That’s an illusion many women still carry today. But these stories aren’t unique to me. They’re part of our collective consciousness.

What Is the Witch Wound?The Witch Wound is a deep energetic imprint passed down through generations. It’s the lingering memory of persecution, fear, and suppression of feminine wisdom. That’s what happens when intuition, healing, and connection to Spirit are condemned.

Historically, this wound was reinforced by religion and culture, especially after the publication of The Malleus Maleficarum in 1486 — the “Hammer of Witches.” This was a handbook for persecuting and prosecuting women for heresy.

The impact was enormous, embedding fear and distrust of female power throughout society and the collective consciousness.

Over centuries, the Witch Wound became internalized. It still whispers through our subconscious in phrases like:

  • “Don’t rock the boat.”
  • “Tone it down.”
  • “Be nice.”
  • “Don’t be too mystical or intuitive.”
  • “Don’t be too much.”

It’s an ancient echo reminding us that visibility once meant danger.

How the Wound AppearsThis wound doesn’t always look like fear. Sometimes it hides as perfectionism, over-preparing, or hesitation to share your gifts. It can surface as doubt that appears out of nowhere. Or a quiet inner voice asking, “What if they think I’m crazy? What if it’s not safe?”

These patterns don’t mean you’re weak. They demonstrate that your body remembers what your mind has forgotten. The Witch Wound lives in the subconscious and in the energy field, quietly influencing how safe you feel expressing your power.

Collectively, it also appears in how society still views spiritual women. Words like “witchy” or “crazy” are used to dismiss intuition. Society still celebrates logic but questions inner knowing.

The Witch Wound is about restoring balance between the rational and the mystical, the masculine and the feminine, and the head and heart.

Ancestral ThreadsMany women carry this wound through their family line, especially the maternal side. It can show up as generations of women who stayed quiet, over-gave, or never felt safe resting or taking a break.

Even if your ancestors weren’t persecuted directly, they lived under the same cultural conditioning that taught women to fear and mistrust their own wisdom.

When you heal, you free your ancestors as well. They cheer you on from the spirit world, This time, you can do things differently.

Recognize the SignsYou might have the Witch Wound if:

  • You hesitate to share your spiritual experiences for fear of judgment.
  • You downplay your intuition or call it coincidence.
  • You feel drawn to healing or energy work but never quite feel “ready.”
  • You feel a tug-of-war between wanting to be seen and wanting to stay safe.
  • You sense a deep connection or aversion to the word witch itself.

However the wound shows up, its asking for love, not analysis.

How to Heal the Witch WoundHealing this wound isn’t about fixing yourself because you are not broken. It’s about clearing the energetic dust, so your light can shine again. Here are a few powerful practices that came through the Akashic Records:

1. Clear Your Energy Field for Seven Days.
Each day, cleanse your aura with intention. Smudge with herbs, bathe with rose petals or sea salt, meditate, or let the wind carry away old energy. As you do, affirm: “I release fear, persecution, and suppression. I reclaim my light, my power, and my voice.”

2. Rewrite Your Past-Life Stories.
If you remember a lifetime that ended in trauma, revisit it through meditation. Ask your soul, What if this could end differently?

When I re-entered my Italian lifetime, I invited the soldiers sent to kill us to join the ritual instead. They dropped their swords and stood in the circle of light. That single act of compassion healed the pattern across all my lifetimes.

3. Receive Golden Light.
In meditation, ask Spirit for healing. Imagine golden-white light raining down on you, forming a glowing sphere in your hands. Place it in your heart and let it expand through your body and aura until you’re filled with shimmering light. Feel it dissolving the residue of fear and restoring your innate wisdom.

4. Honor Your Body.
Move, dance, breathe, and affirm, “It’s safe for me to be all of who I am.” The body holds ancestral memory and the key to freedom. When you ove iwth intention, you can energetically release what no longer serves you.

5. Heal in Sisterhood.
Persecution of witches isolated women, but sisterhood heals! Gather with other women who see you, speak your truth, and hare similar stories. Each time you do this, you help one another remember it’s safe to connect with the divine feminine and shine again.

6. Reclaim Everyday Magic.
Light candles, talk to your plants, pull oracle cards, or pray under the full moon. There are so many small rituals to remind your spirit that intuition is no longer dangerous. It’s truly divine.

Remember the Wise Woman WithinThe Witch Wound was never really about witchcraft. It was about fear of women’s wisdom, intuition, and power and supression of these skills. But those days are over. Women are remembering now that “witch” and “wise woman” once meant the same thing.

Every time you trust your intuition, you empower yourself and rewrite history. Each time you speak your truth, you heal your lineage. And every time you choose love over fear, you dissolve the old repression and silence.

This Halloween, let’s celebrate the return of the wise women, the mystics, and the healers claiming their divine feminine powers freely and rising once more.

Because the Witch Wound isn’t your weakness. It’s your initiation into wholeness.

Let me close with a phrase I never use but it seems completely appropriate for this episode:

Blessed be.

Energetic healing is essential for everyone, even for experienced meditators. Clearing blocks makes room for new energy, while it restores clarity, balance, and higher vibration. This is also true for fans of personal growth and empowerment work.

Always UplevelingIf you’re constantly bringing in new, higher-frequency energy, where does it all go? How does it integrate if there’s no space for it? As you evolve, certain patterns, habits, and energies simply no longer serve you. So, they need to be released.

Here’s the thing – clearing energy is just as vital as bringing in new energy. Without it, all that growth can feel stuck or heavy.

This week, I had the pleasure of talking with Cheryl Stelte, a spiritual coach, master healer, bestselling author, and expert in energy work. We talked about the transformative power of energetic healing, chakra work, and what it truly takes to elevate your vibration and live in alignment with your purpose.

Who Needs More Clearing?Cheryl shared an interesting trend she’s noticed. More mature men, in their 60s and 70s, are diving into spiritual growth and energy work. Some of the people she’s worked with have been meditating and working with higher energies for over 50 years.

You might think that would mean their energy fields are pristine, right?

Not quite. Cheryl observed murky “gray areas” in their energy fields. These spots represent subconscious blocks that dim their inner light. It’s a reminder that healing and growth are lifelong processes.

Turns out energetic healing isn’t just for beginners. It’s for anyone ready to restore vibrancy, alignment, and ease in life.

The ACE MethodCheryl shared her three-step ACE method, a simple but powerful approach to clearing subconscious blocks.

A is for Accessing. Start by connecting with the emotions trapped in your energy field. Deep belly breathing is the key here—it’s like a spotlight into your energy, helping you identify what’s blocking you.

C is for Clearing. Once you identify the stuck emotions, continue breathing deeply to release them. Pay attention to the physical sensations that arise—they often give you clues about other layers of energy that need attention.

E is for Empowering. This is the magic that follows clearing. It’s not just a mindset shift—it’s realignment with your energetic self. You emerge lighter, clearer, and more connected to your natural flow of energy. Regular sessions of energetic healing amplify this effect, helping blocks release faster and more completely.

Feeling the ShiftWhen you remove energy blocks, you start living in alignment with your higher self—and you can feel it. Life flows easier, decisions feel clearer, and even your interactions with others can feel more effortless. Higher vibration is more than a buzzword. I’m talking about experience and here’s hwat you might notice:

  • Less mental chatter and worry
  • More ease moving through challenges
  • A sense of inner lightness and clarity
  • Feeling more present and connected to your intuition
  • Greater inner peace

Cheryl recounted a wonderful client story. After just three clearing sessions, the woman released worry and shifted her perspective! She realized freedom wasn’t about changing circumstances, but cultivating a state of inner peace. This is exactly what this powerful energetic healing can help you achieve.

Emotions Are Energy MessengersOne of the most important pieces of Cheryl’s work is acknowledging emotions. Whether it’s anger, sadness, or fear, lean into these feelings. Doing this will move the energy instead of allowing it stagnate.

Suppressed emotions often point to deeper issues, while conscious acknowledgment can lead to breakthroughs and personal growth. This is why energetic healing is such a powerful tool. It moves stuck energy, so your mind, body, and spirit can realign.

Let’s talk about the David Hawkins Map of Consciousness which shows emotions in a hierarchy based on Hertz frequency. For example, if you’re feeling angry, that is actually several steps above others vibrationally such as shame, grief, or even fear.

Why does this matter? Some people fear their anger and want to avoid feeling that. Yet, it can actually propel you forward into action to cahnge your life. I’m not saying anger is good for you, but it is on the scale and does have some temporary advantages.

This is just one example of how your emotions are worth examining and experiencing, so you can move up the Map of Consciousness.

Your Purpose Might Be SimpleMany people search for “their purpose” as if it’s one grand achievement. Cheryl reminds you that purpose isn’t about titles or accolades. Instead it’s deeply personal and varies for each individual.

Your purpose could be experiencing simple joys, small acts of nurturing, or profound contributions. What matters is alignment with your true self.

Cheryl’s work helps people uncover and embrace their unique purpose, whether that’s caring for others, developing untapped talents, or simply showing up as their authentic self.

Practicing Energetic EmpowermentYou don’t need a guru to start shifting your energy. When you face discomfort, start with the ACE method. Feel your emotions, breathe deeply, and release what no longer serves you. It’s simple, yet incredibly effective for moving energy and refining your alignment.

Your journey is yours alone. Each step, whether small or transformative, clears the path for more clarity, ease, and vibrancy in your life.

For those ready to explore this kind of work, Cheryl can guide you in clearing blocks, reconnecting with your inner power, and discovering the purpose waiting to be fully realized.

Time travel, magic, witchcraft, and vampires — there are so many fun and ghoulish options for your own Halloween movie marathon!

Halloween Movie MadnessFor some reason this year, I’m really feeling the Halloween spirit more than ever. Maybe it’s the cooler air, leaves falling, or looking forward to wearing a fun costume and dressing up.

I did buy a fabulous new Halloween decoration. It’s a raven, perched on a skull, on top of an ancient-looking candlestick. Love it – thanks HomeGoods!

Today, we’re skipping the deep mystical discussions and diving into something that’s pure fun. I’m going to share 20 witchy, magical, and slightly spooky movies and shows that are perfect for this time of year.

Now, just between you and me, I’m not big on gory slasher films or horror movies. So, I won’t be recommending Bride of Chuckie or Scream 3. No worries there!

In addition to the movies and shows, I’ve included short descriptions and where to watch so you can curate your own October movie marathon. It’s time to have fun!

Cozy Witch Vibes & Everyday Magic1. Practical Magic — HBO Max, HuluTwo witchy sisters (Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman) try to navigate love, family curses, and small-town life with help from their eccentric aunts (Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest).

  1. The Witches of Eastwick — HBO Max, Apple TVThree best friends in a sleepy New England town (Cher, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer) discover their powers when the devilish Daryl Van Horne (Jack Nicholson) shows up.

  1. Sleepy Hollow — Paramount+, Apple TVJohnny Depp plays Ichabod Crane, a quirky detective sent to investigate murders in the fog-filled town of Sleepy Hollow. Expect eerie forests, a headless horseman, and Christina Ricci’s haunting charm. A Halloween classic in my house.

  2. Wicked (2024) — Prime Video, Apple TVBefore Dorothy ever landed in Oz, two witches forged an unlikely friendship that changed everything. Elphaba (green skinned and misunderstood) became the Wicked Witch of the West, while Glinda (popular and sparkly), became the Good Witch of the North. This visual feast is the prequel and a heart-tugging re-imagining of good and evil.

  3. The OA (Series) — NetflixEqual parts mystical and mind-bending, this series follows Prairie Johnson, a blind woman who returns home after vanishing for seven years. Now, her sight has been restored in this story about interdimensional travel. It’s strange, soulful, and totally mesmerizing.

If you’d like a Cosmic Mediumship session with my friend Marla Martenson, just click here.

In this podcast snack, Marla and I talked about her readings and mediumship sessions. This time of year, with Halloween around the corner, the veil thins which makes it so much easier to connect with the other side.

Maybe you want to talk with family members who have passed on, or other friends and loved ones. This is a great reminder that death is not the end – you go on living!

Marla explained how after passing, you’re not up living in the clouds but instead, still here on earth. However, you’re in a different dimension that’s a higher frequency. That’s why most people can’t see those who have passed on.

However, Marla’s experience is that these souls often stay close to watch over and support you. They are listening, so feel free to talk with them!

I told a few stories about seeing spirits from my family. I also shared a personal session I had with Marla and what my mom told her. Then how it came to be in my life that same day! The message from my mom came to pass!

Marla’s stories about her mediumship are fun and heart-warming. From the mundane to something profound, you never know what will come through.

Marla is upbeat and delightful. Her eccletic style of reading includes some energy clearing and there may be messages from guides, etc. as well as your relatives or loved one who have passed on.

Just click here to book your 45-minutes session with Marla today! You’ll love her.

Have you ever felt the wind whip with such force it took your breath away? Or watched a sudden gust shake the trees? That’s the power of the wind element, which is a messenger, a mirror, and a guide.

The wind is invisible, yet it moves everything it touches. It’s wild, unpredictable, and deeply intelligent. If you listen, the air can reveal invisible currents within yourself including your thoughts, emotions, and intuition. Air represents change, inspiration, and freedom and is the language of your soul when you listen.

What Is Air About?Across many spiritual traditions, air is bigger than the oxygen you breathe. It represents the realm of mind and communication, the sacred breath that animates all living things. While earth grounds, water feels, and fire ignites, air moves. It’s the element of ideas, intuition, and new beginnings.

These phrases show how connected wind and the mind really are:

  • Winds of change
  • Fresh ideas
  • Head in the clouds
  • Brainstorming ideas

Movement is the essence of air because it never stays still. A soft breeze can turn into a gale in seconds, reminding you that life is always shifting. Air invites flexibility, release, and freedom.

From your first inhale to your last exhale, breath marks the rhythm of life. You have a sacred partnership with this element that mirrors how your own energy flows and transforms.

Culture & The Wind ElementThe ancient Greeks were among the first to name air as a foundational element. Empedocles described it as one of the four building blocks of life alongside earth, fire, and water. This was later expanded by Aristotle and woven through alchemy and Western mysticism.

Air corresponds with the east, which is the direction of sunrise. To many that stands for new beginnings, brings clarity after darkness, and the spark of inspiration at dawn.

Air also lives within the breath itself. In Hinduism, it’s prana. In Hebrew mysticism, it’s ruach. And in Chinese philosophy, it’s chi. All these words link breath with spirit, which is the bridge between seen and unseen worlds. Indigenous peoples, see wind as sacred, with messengers of direction, wisdom, and spirit.

Astrologically, air rules Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius. All are signs of communication, intellect, and innovation. In Tarot, air governs the suit of Swords, with the sharp edge of truth, clarity, and insight.

Across the world, air is more than what you breathe, but how spirit moves within you, around you, and through you.

Tools of the WindAir is the master of movement and cleansing, especially for the mind. While water clears emotion and fire transforms, air sweeps away mental clutter such as repetitive thoughts, stale energy, and the static that builds when you’ve been stuck for a while.

Working with air doesn’t require fancy tools. Just your presence, intention, and breath. The simplest gestures can shift your energy and open the mind to higher awareness.

Feathers: Nature’s pure expression of air, feathers were designed to catch the wind and rise. They carry freedom and the perspective of flight. Use feathers to move energy or clear a space. Their gentle motion stirs the unseen and carries your intention on invisible currents to the Gods.

Incense: If air had perfume, it would be incense, used in spiritual practice for millennia. The smoke from incense makes the invisible air visible, so you can watch it lift and move. Lighting incense instantly shifts the energy of a space and each aroma carries its own vibration.

Bells: Sound is air in motion, and bells create a single ring that vibrates through space, clearing energy and inviting new flow. Across traditions, bells signal the sacred, from church towers to altar chimes to Tibetan singing bowls. Their resonance breaks up stagnation and refreshes your surroundings.

Wind Chimes: The sound of wind chimes can be compared to an orchestra. They don’t need you to play them, but move with the wind element. Every song they play is spontaneous and alive. In feng shui, wind chimes keep chi flowing. Hung by doors or windows, they shift stagnant energy and invite harmony.

Rituals to Embody AirThere are a number of rituals you can do that work with your breath, sound, movement, and intention.

Mindful Breathing: Simply noticing your breath can clear the mind and calm the heart. Try a few rounds of box breathing (inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4) or extend your exhales to melt tension. Breathwork balances energy and invites clarity.

Meditation: Air loves stillness in motion. Focus on the feeling of breath entering and leaving, or visualize each inhale as clarity and each exhale as release.

Singing or Chanting: When you sing, you automatically lift your vibration and that of the air around you. Chanting or humming raises your frequency and there are no tools or talent required.

Writing & Speaking: Surpisingly, writing is a tool that takes your airy thoughts and brings them into the physical world. And when you speak, that gives your words wings. The most powerful way to use affirmations is to say them aloud, because then they create a vibration that goes out into the air.

Step into the Wind: On a breezy day, go outside to be in the wind. Let the air touch your skin, lift your hair, and carry away what no longer serves you. The wind knows what to do.

Channeled Message from AirI connected with the wind element to see if there was a message for the listeners. Here’s what I heard:

“I am about communication. I am the storm, gathering energy to move, dance, and stir life. I can be gentle or relentless. I can caress your skin with a breeze or break centuries-old trees. Whisper your desires to me, and I’ll carry them far. Cast away your fears, and I’ll turn them to dust.

I plant seeds, lift feathers, and sweep the world clean. I roar like a lion and whisper in your ear. I am the wind — powerful, unpredictable, eternal. I am here for you, always.”

The Wind Is EverywhereAir is everywhere, unseen, yet ever-present. It’s the whisper through the trees, the breath that carries your voice, the current that shifts energy in every moment.

Working with air, through feathers, incense, bells, wind chimes, or simple breath, is about awakening to change and freedom. The magic of the wind element is that it’s always here, ready to clear, lift, and inspire you.

All you have to do is breathe, listen, and let the wind remind you that you’re already part of the flow. And don’t forget to Breathe Love & Magic whenever you can.

Tarot cards have long been used as a tool for fortune-telling and connecting with the unseen world. But for my guest, Beth Lees, a transformation guide and tarot reader, the cards are far more than a tool for prediction.

Beth relies on the cards as a gateway for self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. Beth and I explore the deep wisdom of tarot and how it helps navigate life’s changes on t his episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast..

Tarot – A Tool for Self-DiscoveryMany people approach tarot expecting to learn about the future. However, Beth sees the cards as a mirror for the unconscious. Quoting Carl Jung, she explains, “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

The imagery of the tarot taps into our subconscious mind, allowing you to see your life from new perspectives and make empowered choices.

Beth’s readings help you understand yourself and your situation more deeply. She suggests that as you see things differently, you can change the trajectory of your life for the better.

Surrender – The Hanged Man CardBeth drew a card for collective clarity for the listeners and chose The Hanged Man. While the card appears to be ominous, it’s actually about surrender. While hanging upside down from one foot, the man can see the world from a new perspective. The Hanged Man looks relaxed and illuminated, inviting you to let go and trust the process.

Beth shares a favorite Rumi quote that captures the essence of this card, “Don’t worry that your world is turning upside down. How do you know that the side you are used to is better than the one to come?” Surrender, she explains, is not about giving up or losing, but pausing, reflecting, and allowing things to unfold without a lot of effort.

4 of Pentacles – Gratitude & Letting GoNext, Beth picked the Four of Pentacles, often called the “Miser” card. While it can represent holding resources too tightly, Beth offers a more nuanced view. Her interpretation is to appreciate what you have, pause to reflect, and practice gratitude.

Every tarot card, has both positive and negative aspects, which is the same of life.

I mentioned that I felt confused about the cards pointing to surrender and holding on. Beth responded that confusion is a sign of growth. When you’re curious and open, you’re no longer stuck in old stories—we’re in a state of beginner’s mind, ready for creativity and new opportunities.

Debunking Tarot MythsTarot often gets a bad rap, Beth acknowledges, due to religious misconceptions and dramatic portrayals in movies. She emphasizes that there are no “good” or “bad” cards—each card simply reflects different aspects of life. The infamous Death card, for example, is not about literal death but transformation and new beginnings. Think of a snake shedding its old skin to promite growth.

The Tower and TransformationBeth shared a powerful story from a tarot party she worked. A man, sat at her table, who was an Assocaited Press photographer. He was known for his iconic photo of someone jumping from the World Trade Center on 9/11.

Not knowing this, Beth pulled two cards for him – first the Hanged Man and then the Tower card in his reading. The Tower is a card about a big shake up, and the Hanged Man is about surrender. He asked her not to explain as he said what he saw.

Beth added her interpretation reading so he could see his photographic image in a new light. Rather than being associated only with the tragedy, she saw this also as an invitation to let go and find meaning in that person’s surrender.

Use Intuition to Learn TarotFor those interested in learning tarot, Beth’s advice is simple. She suggests buying a deck and pick one card every day. Don’t rush to read the guidebook for meaning. Instead, pay attention to what you see and how the card makes you feel. According to Beth, the most important interpretation is your own.

Over time, you’ll develop a relationship with the cards and build trust in your intuition. Later, you can consult books for additional perspectives, but the foundation is your personal connection to the imagery.

Creative Uses for TarotThe tarot has value beyond self-reflection or divination. It can also be a powerful tool for creativity and inspiration in everyday life. She offered several creative ways to use tarot.

  1. Character Development – If you’re writing a book or story, pull a card to help shape a character’s personality or backstory. The imagery and symbolism can spark new ideas and add depth to your characters.

  2. Decision-Making – Use tarot to bring a playful, intuitive element to everyday choices. Even something as simple as “What should I have for breakfast?” The cards can prompt you to consider new perspectives or options you hadn’t thought of.

  3. Artistic Inspiration – Let the cards’ colors, symbols, and archetypes inspire visual art, poetry, or music. Beth encourages using quotes, songs, and questions along with the card meanings to deepen your creative relationship with them.

  4. Personal Reflection – Beyond prediction, tarot can be a daily practice for journaling, meditation, or setting intentions. Pull a card and ponder its meaning for your day, your mood, or a challenge you’re facing.

The key is to approach the cards with curiosity, playfulness, and an open mind. There are no limits to how you can use tarot to spark creativity and insight.

The Joy of TarotAbove all, Beth reminds you that tarot can be fun. In times of uncertainty, a sense of wonder and playfulness can help navigate life’s challenges. Pick a card each day, consdier its meaning, and look for the positive aspects. Approach the cards and life with eyes of curiosity and joy.

According to Beth, the point of the tarot is not just a tool for predicting the future, but a companion for the journey of self-discovery. Whether you’re facing a major life change or simply seeking a daily dose of inspiration, the cards can assist.

Tarot invites you to pause, reflect, and trust the unfolding path. The magic of tarot lies beyond the card meanings, in the wisdom, curiosity, and joy you bring to reading them.

For years I’ve said to myself, “I am the magic” as part of my morning ritual to align my energy for my highest good. But now more than ever, I want to go with the flow which feels even more powerful. To me, that means life will feel easier, lighter, and be less of a struggle.

And recently, I realized that maybe, just maybe, I’m finally getting there and learning how.

The Burger and the BillThe other night, I went out with friends to a comedy club to see to psychic mediums do their thing. They were pretty good! But, dinner came with quirks. My burger showed up missing toppings and the “side salad” was a sad, tiny pile of lettuce with no dressing. Yet, I was charged $5 extra for it.

In the past, I would have called the waitress over, argued, maybe even asked for the manager. I would’ve told the story later to my husband, friends, or anyone willing to commiserate.

But this time something different happened. I just paid the bill and let it go.

It might sound small, but for me, this was huge! Letting go has never been easy for me. I’ve even joked about how I wish someone would create that essence and bottle it so I could atake a swig when needed. But here it happened. I just let go to go with the flow without fanfare.

Spilled Shakes and Soaked CushionsOver the past weekend, life threw a couple of tests my way. A glass literally popped apart while I was making a protein shake, splattering liquid everywhere. I didn’t flip out or get angry. In fact my husband came to help and we both laughed as we tried to stop the flow and cleaned up.

Then minutes later, we found the soaked carpet had been soaked becaue we brought the outdoor cushions inside and theu were full of water from a rain storm two days prior. We blotted the water with towels and put a fan on the carpet to dry it out.

Go with the FlowNormally, both these incidents would have sent me into swearing, frustration, and more, messing up my energy and my day. But instead, my husband and I just cleaned up, laughed, took care of it and simply moved on.

Again, these are small things. But for me, this demonstrates a massive change in my respnose. Looking back now, these moments showed me I am learning to let go and go with the flow.

The Cost of IndignationMonths ago, Spirit told me something that was hard to hear. My indignation was robbing me of joy. Every time I got caught up in how unfair life felt, I drained my own energy and preventedmyself from feeling orfinding any joy.

That hit me big time. Because joy is something I deeply want more of. I began to see that sometimes the real cost isn’t the $5 salad or a broken glass. Instead, it’s the peace I sacrifice when I stay stuck in outrage.

I used to believe I had to fight every little battle, prove my point, and make sure people treated me fairly. I stood up for myself,confronted people when necesary, and didn’t sweep things under the carpet. I always stood up for myself and many people say they admired that about me. I approached things head on and got them done.

But, I’m ready to move on from that. I see now how much energy I was giving to this process and how I felt ready for a greater sense of inner peace, calmness, and more joy.

Pick Your BattlesLetting go doesn’t mean I roll over or never speak up. For someone who’s always stood her ground, the lesson isn’t about finding my voice, but softening it. I’m more inclined now to conserve my energy for what really matters: joy, laughter, creativity, and inner peace.

Here’s another example for the evening with the mediums. When I pulled into the parking lot behind the place, and did the QR code to pay for parking, the price was $38 for a couple of hours. My indignation flared up instantly. Ridiculous!

But there were no other options, no attendant, and no time to drive around. I just let go and paid. I didn’t love it, but I chose the lesser of two evils, which was paying the fee rather than wasting time and energy searching for a cheaper spot.

Was I thrilled about it? No. Did I carry it with me all night? Also no. And that’s the difference. I’m starting to choose which annoyances are worth my attention and which ones don’t deserve center stage.

Discovering a New PatternWhen I step back and look at these small situations—burgers, shakes, cushions, parking lots—I see a pattern emerging. I’m not getting pulled under as quickly. I’m not turning everything into a fight.

I’m beginning to laugh more often at the absurdities instead of letting them ruin my mood and energy. And honestly? It feels like freedom.

These are small shifts, but for someone who’s spent years trying to figure out how to “let go,” they feel monumental.

Lessons from SpiritThis change also reminded me of something Spirit showed me months ago. I’d been told that my habit of being indignant, which is about being disrespected or slighted, etc. That leads to wanting fair treatment and complaining about the situation.

All of this nonsense and drama was preventing me from feeling more joy. Mostly because I didn’t have the energy for joy with all the drama I was creating.

At first, I bristled at that idea about indignation. Wasn’t I justified in wanting to be treated fairly? But slowly I began to see the truth. I was letting the little stuff drain me dry.

Now I can see that joy doesn’t require everything to go my way. Joy comes when I stop fighting long enough to notice the good stuff that’s already present.

Celebrating Small ShiftsAnd here’s where I want to turn this around to you. Because I know I’m not the only one growing. These little moments of progress when you react differently than you used to are worth noticing and celebrating.

Maybe you didn’t lose your cool in traffic. Maybe you forgave someone faster than you thought possible. Maybe you spoke up for yourself when you usually would’ve stayed quiet.

Whatever it is, it counts!

Growth doesn’t always look like a reaching the top of a mountain. Sometimes it looks like paying the bill without a scene, laughing at spilled shakes, or deciding joy is more valuable than indignation.

Flow Provides FreedomI’m not perfect at this—just ask me about that $38 parking lot. But the point isn’t perfection. The point is noticing progress.

I’m learning to go with the flow, choosing my battles, and letting go of the ones that don’t matter. And every time I do, I feel lighter, freer, and closer to the joy I want to live in.

So today, I invite you to take a moment and notice your own shifts. Congratulate yourself for how far you’ve come, even if it feels small. Because these are the stepping stones of the transformation you desire and dream of.

And if I can celebrate not flipping out over soggy cushions and overpriced salad and parking, and consider them as victories, I’ll bet you’ve got your own quiet wins waiting to be recognized.

Give yourself some credit and love and acknowledge the little changes. They add up to big changes over time!

Have you ever called upon the water element? Beyond quenching your thirst, water can clear away what no longer serves you, open the flow of intuition, or carry your dreams into being.

A Great AllyWater is one of our greatest allies, holding mystery, memory, and the power to transform everything it touches. When I spoke with Jenn T. Peterson, Equus Coach and Shaman Reiki Master Teacher, she reminded me that water isn’t just practical; it’s spiritual. “Our entire earth is water. Our bodies are about 80% water. So when you think about it, we are water,” she said.

That hit me. From the ocean that touches every continent flows in our cells to a mountain stream, or the rain falling from the sky, and even the glass of water on your desk. Each one is a part of water element, including you!

Water Is LifeWater covers more of the earth than land, and nothing survives without it. We drink it, cook with it, bathe in it. It’s influence runs deeper. Across cultures, water has always been sacred. Think of holy water for blessing, shamanic water for cleansing, and even modern research shows that water crystals respond to intention.

Jenn also connected water with emotions which are fluid, shifting constantly from calm to stormy in a moment. Emotions live in the body, moving like tides. That’s why dreams, intuition, and emotional healing all resonate with the water element.

Here’s a simple truth. Most people are often dehydrated. Without enough water, even moods and emotional balance suffer. Hydrating goes beyond physical self-care, because it impacts you emotional and spiritual well-being too.

Tears also remind us of water’s role in release. Crying is the body’s way of cleansing. Instead of resisting tears, we can honor them as sacred.

Work with the Water ElementTalking about water is inspiring—but the real magic is in practice. When you bring intention to everyday interactions with water, the ordinary becomes sacred. Jenn explained some beautiful rituals, and I’ve added a few of my own. Use what resonates and adapt the rest. Water is generous like that—it doesn’t demand perfection.

1.Water WhisperingThis is one of Jenn’s favorite practices, and once you try it, you’ll understand why. Take three containers of water in glass or metal which works best since they hold frequency. Whisper into the first container something you want to release. Into the second, whisper an intention for your own healing or growth. Into the third, whisper a prayer for the earth.

Your voice is vibration, and water records that frequency. If you’ve whispered an intention, drink the water so your body, which is 80% water, carries the message. If you’ve whispered a release, pour it into the ground and let the earth transmute it. For planetary healing, return it to the land, a plant, or even the sink with gratitude.

It’s such a simple act, yet powerful because it brings body, mind, and spirit into harmony. You’re speaking your truth, embodying it, and partnering with the natural world.

  1. Purify with WaterOne of the simplest ways to clear energy is in the shower. Instead of rushing through your routine, set the intention: I release what no longer serves me. Feel the water carrying away tension, sadness, or fear. The same shower that wakes you up can also cleanse your spirit.

Even washing your hands can become a clearing ritual. Once, at a gathering where someone’s energy felt heavy, I excused myself and washed my hands three times, each time picturing the energy going down the drain. It worked! I walked out lighter and clearer. That’s the beauty of water: it gives us discreet, practical tools to restore balance.

  1. Tears as MedicineWe don’t always think of crying as sacred, but it is. Tears are one of the body’s most honest offerings. They move energy we can’t carry, soften the heart, and release what words cannot. Instead of resisting or apologizing for tears, honor them as your own water element ceremony.

  2. Scry and ReflectWater can also become a mirror for guidance. In shamanic journeys, Jenn kneels by a pond or lake and looks into the reflection, allowing her intuition to reveal visions of the future or hidden truths.

You can do the same with a bowl of water at home. Light a candle nearby, gaze softly, and see what images or impressions arise. This practice connects you to your deeper wisdom while reminding you that answers already ripple within.

  1. Freeze with IntentionOne of the most unusual practices Jenn shared is “putting something on ice.” Whisper a situation into water, freeze it, and tuck it into your freezer. This halts the momentum, gives you distance, and lets the universe hold it until you’re ready.

One of the most unusual practices Jenn shared is “putting something on ice.” Whisper a situation into water, freeze it, and tuck it into your freezer. This halts the momentum, gives you distance, and lets the universe hold it until you’re ready.

She once forgot about a frozen intention for over a year, and when she rediscovered it, the situation had completely lost its grip. Sometimes the most powerful magic comes from letting go and trusting time to work.

  1. Manifest and ReleaseWater is transformation. It shifts from liquid to vapor to ice, reminding us that nothing is fixed. In shamanic work, water often becomes the vessel for journeys—like Jenn’s River of Time, which carries people to past or future insights.

Manifestation also ties into water. If desires aren’t appearing, it’s often fear that’s fueling them. Releasing fear through water rituals clears the way so intentions can actually flow in.

And like a river carving a canyon, water shows us that persistence reshapes reality. Change doesn’t have to be forced; it can be steady, fluid, and natural.

Your Invitation to FlowWater is everywhere—within you, around you, above and beneath you. It sustains life, carries memory, and responds to intention. Whether you’re sipping a glass, stepping into the shower, or whispering a prayer into a stream, you’re connecting with one of the most powerful allies we have.

The invitation is simple: engage with the water element consciously. Whisper your dreams. Wash away what no longer serves you. Cry when you need to. Place something on ice if it feels too heavy. And most of all, when it feels right, let yourself flow.

Because like water, you are ever-changing, ever-connected, and far more powerful than you know.

Here’s a radical new revelation – there’s a connection between self love practices and world peace which I’m so excited to tell you about. Hang in there with me because this takes a while to unravel.

Still Learning to Let GoThis is part of my continuing quest to learn how to let go. New ideas keep showing up, probably to help me release deeper layers or finish with things I started that aren’t done yet.

I have several situations in my life that I cannot fix. The only solution is to let go. Somehow, I have to release my need to rehearse speeches in my head.

These thought loops brings me down and drain my energy. It certainly doesn’t allow me to expand fully or reach my potential. A cloud forms over my sparkly being and holds me back. Yet, my brain slips into this groove automatically, as if it likes being there.

Yesterday, I was talking to a friend who is also going through this thought loop habit. Energy patterns are always easier to spot with someone else, soI can distill the issue and see the solution. Here’s what I told her from spirit, which of course applies to me too.

Big Revelation“You cannot let go by thinking about letting go. Why? Because this requires you to think about the situation and hold onto the energy rather than letting it go. You can’t think about letting go and actually let go at the same time. The very act of thinking about it holds you to the problem you desperately want to release.

Yes, feel your feelings. I’m not suggesting you stuff down your feelings. But when it comes to letting go, being in your head will not help.

What can you do? The solution is to think about something else. Years ago I started calling this practice “replacement thoughts.” And here it is again.

The point is to think about something you actually want to think about. Choose what makes you feel good, smile, or builds confidence. Consider what will set your energy in motion in the most positive way and replace those circular, negative thought loops.

Let me give you two examples. If I catch myself looping, I might think about a great vacation memory of being in Ireland. That thought instantly changes my mood. Or, if I want something uplifting, I might focus on my affirmations: “I trust the universe and feel supported.”

Jump Tracks in Your BrainThese thoughts reroute the energy, like jumping a train track, so you move toward a brighter destination. Neuroscience backs this up. The brain has many well-worn pathways and surprisingly, negative tracks are preferred. The more you repeat a thought, the deeper the pathway becomes, until it’s well-worn.

But you can create new paths! With practice, replacement thoughts create new grooves in your brain and eventually, those uplifting thoughts will become the new default.

Yesterday I found the perfect replacement practice for me, and I want to share it with you because it’s so darn good. I listened to Dani Kenney’s podcast Energy Expansion and her episode on life-changing daily practices. She had several good ideas but the one I liked is called Love Letters. I’ll call it Love Notes.

Dani suggests you start your day by writing yourself a Love Note. Get a journal just for this purpose. If you don’t want to write sentences, make a daily list of bullet points that you love about yourself. This is one of many self love practices

She read a few examples during the podcast and started by just with “I love that you…” and wrote something different each day, based on her mood or what was happening.

Self Love Practices – Love NoteI started today in my own way. I encourage you to do the same. Give yourself permission to do what works for you. Here’s what I wrote as my very first entry:

“I love myself. I am a beacon of light. I am magic. I trust the universe and feel supported. I walk my highest path. I am stardust, leaving a sparkling trail of joy behind me and creating a sparkling path of joy before me, paving the way to what is next. I share my light with the world. Today is going to be fun!”

After, I connected with my guides to see what they had to say today. Here’s what they said to me.

“What a beautiful way to start your day! You will begin to enjoy this process more than something you must or should do. It’s something you’ll relish. You’ll love doing this and look forward to it.

It won’t be a chore on your list but a practice of uplifting yourself and connecting with the truth of your soul. It will bring you joy and set your energetic intention for the day. Welcome to your next level. Walk boldly. Walk in the light. Walk in the joy and live in the magic.”

Ok wow. That brought tears to my eyes. I’m going to keep after these self love practices.

The Maharishi EffectHere’s what happened right after I finished my love note yesterday. I got a text from a woman in my manifesting group. She sent me an article about the Maharishi Effect and asked if I had heard of it.

Yes, I heard about this and knew groups gathered, using Transcendental Meditation to move humanity towards peace. They’ve done incredible scientific research to show that the power of people who do this is mathematically squared. In other words, when 10 people meditate they have the power of 100. And when thousands of people gather, that represents millions!

Their research also shows that group meditations drive a decrease in violence – 16% on average, in the location where they meditate. This all started back in 1974 and is still going strong.

Okay, let’s take this a step further. Here’s what came to me from spirit.

“Imagine a world where people loved themselves. When people say, ‘I’m just one person, what can I do that will make a difference?’ now you know what to do. When you meditate with others for peace it does make a difference. When you love yourself and start your day with love notes, you raise your vibration which ripples out to people around you.”

Bioenergetic ClearingsWhen I do bioenergetic clearings for people, I start and finish by measuring their hertz frequency. I find there’s often a dramatic jump upwards after the clearing.

Next time you have a personal clearing, remember you are actually upleveling the world. Everyone around you benefits. That’s amazing isn’t it? Another great example of self love practices.

We are so very powerful, but don’t spend enough time leveraging the positive. However, we are naturally good at leveraging negative energy. We talk about the crumbling state of the world, listen to the news, and complain about our lives or other people. I do it too.

This has caused a rise in hatred, a split in our country, and the inability to listen to or understand the opposing side.

One Person Does Make a DifferenceBut what if we changed that? What if it were as simple as starting your day by loving yourself? Acknowledge the good you contain and share that with the world. You matter. You matter in a huge way and it’s time to start acknowledging that.

Just because you can’t see or doubt your impact in this moment, that has nothing to do with the truth of your impact. Every single one of you matter and contribute to the good of the whole and the world.

This is why spiritual leaders say world peace starts with inner peace. And this idea of writing love notes, expressing love for yourself is a massive energetic accelerator.

Add to the LightHere’s a deep truth. When I love myself, I’m not just healing me. I’m adding light to the grid that connects us all. Every kind word I whisper to myself, every loving thought I hold, ripples outward. Being kind to others is important but loving yourself is a force of gigantic proportion.

This is my invitation to you. Tomorrow morning, write a single light-filled love note to yourself. Let it be simple, inspired, and fun! get started with self love practices. Notice how even the smallest act shifts the current you’re flowing in.

Because this is how magic works. One thought at a time. One heart at a time. And before you know it, that little ripple becomes a big wave.

Curious about who you were in a past life? In this episode I share 25 clues to discover past life memories without hypnosis or meditation.

Past Life MemoriesHave you ever felt an odd pull toward a place, a style, or even a moment in history that doesn’t seem to fit into your current life? That tug of curiosity might not be random at all. In fact, it could be a whisper from past life memories.

My own interest in reincarnation started young. In the 4th grade, I wrote a book report on the Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten. By 6th grade, my fascination had grown. With two girlfriends, we recreated the inside of a pyramid with colored pencils and shirt cardboard from the cleaners.

Those early obsessions weren’t just school projects but clues pointing to experiences my soul already lived. Over time, I’ve seen how these clues show up. They sometimes appear as passions and talents, and other times as aversions or fears. The trick is to notice what stirs something strong inside you.

The Fascination Never EndsOne of the most obvious signs of a past life memory is when you feel drawn to a particular period of history. For me, it’s always been King Arthur’s legends, the drama of Queen Elizabeth I, and the romance of Renaissance Italy.

In fact, the first European country I ever visited was Italy, as if my soul had been calling me back home. Travel is a very common clue. Yet, the clues don’t always show up in such bold ways. Sometimes they hide in the details of everyday life.

Take my home décor, for example. Years ago, I decorated my bedroom with Corinthian columns, which are ornate, decorative columns I picked up from an antique store. They flank either side of my bed with a crosspiece above, holding lights.

Why did I feel the need for this specific architectural style? At the time, I didn’t stop to question it. But later, I recognized it as another subtle nudge from my Italian past life memories.

Lessons from Ancient EgyptOne of the most vivid past-life visions I’ve had took me right back to ancient Egypt, echoing the fascination I’d felt as a child. In this vision, I was a wealthy woman, not royalty but rich enough to live in luxury. I was decked out in fabulous jewelry.

But the attitude of my spirit wasn’t so pretty. That woman I saw myself as was harsh, yelling at servants and cruel. Not exactly a lighthearted soul or my best act.

And here’s where it got interesting. In my very next lifetime, I was back in Egypt again, but this time as a slave, making mud bricks under the punishing sun. It was during the time of Moses, so I eventually found freedom and crossed the Red Sea to wander the desert.

From wealth and power to the humblest of lives, my soul wanted both experiences. That’s how past lives work. They help us balance, grow, and round out the rough edges.

Echoes of WarSometimes the patterns show up across many readings. For instance, a few years ago I decided to do 30 readings in 30 days for different people. I was quite surprised when I saw that several people had been Roman soldiers. I questioned the validity of this finding.

However, when you think about it, Rome’s empire lasted for centuries, and the army was quite massive with thousands of warriors. So, it makes sense that many could have come back today when you think about how many souls had that experence in the past.

Another striking story came through during a past life reading for a woman who had deep fears of fireworks and drowning that she couldn’t explain. In this life she is a Japanese woman and she wanted to know about her most recent incarnation.

Learn More about Getting a Past Life Reading

Turns out she was a US sailor who died in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. I was impressed with this soul’s bravery to return to the culture that caused his death and also to come back as a woman. While these were difficult past life memories, understanding the root cause of her fears was helpful.

A Viking at HalloweenOne of my favorite examples was also one of the most nerve-wracking. My friend begged me to do a past life reading for a local newspaper reporter who came to the psychic fair. Of course I worried about not coming up with anything.

The reporter sat down at my table and his wife stood behind him. Both friendly but gave nothing away. What I saw was crystal clear – he had a life as a Viking. Blonde hair, a beard, heavy tunic, shield, sword, helmet—the works. He was training with his sword with other men from the village.

When I described the scene, I held my breath, wondering if he’d roll his eyes. Instead, his wife burst out laughing. She told me that every single Halloween, without fail, he dressed up as a Viking. His past still echoed, nudging him to remember.

Halloween itself can be a massive source of clues. Year after year, people instinctively pick costumes that feel oddly familiar. It’s as if the soul seizes its chance to slip into an old identity, even just for one night. Maybe you’re always drawn to being a witch, a flapper, a soldier, or a queen. It could be past life memories.

Your Soul KnowsExploring past lives is fun, but also revealing. It helps explain the unexplainable. Why you’re drawn to certain places, why certain fears linger, and why certain people feel instantly familiar. It’s a way to understand yourself on a soul level, with compassion and curiosity.

Next time you find yourself magnetically drawn to a piece of history, a place, or even a Halloween costume, pause and ask yourself, “Could this be a clue?” The soul is always whispering, leaving breadcrumbs to remind you of the vastness of who you really are.

26 Clues about Your Past LivesSo, if a memory, dream, or fascination stirs something in you, write it down in your past life memories journal. Even the smallest clue can open the door to a story your soul is waiting to remind you about.

Today I’m talking about how to trust yourself and the Universe. This has been one of my biggest lfie challenges, but I’ve got some simple tips that really work in this episode.

Lessons in TrustMany lessons about trust have come to me through business. Back in 2010, I partnered with Cathy, another dating coach, to host a summit about love—a marketing method that was just starting to catch on.

At first, working together felt easy. I handled speakers and web design, she handled promotion. Then, during a check-in meeting, she announced her coach told her she didn’t need me anymore. She still wanted to finish the event, but she’d be taking it from there to continue the next year.

I was devastated. I had trusted her, and suddenly she was going to take my work. I told her she could do her own event and didn’t give her access to the site I’d built. When we hung up, I was literally shaking.

Even though it was August, hot and humid, I went to the beach with my husband to calm down. As we walked, I kept running it over again in my mind. Paul wanted to leave but I needed to walk a bit more. Then, 50 feet ahead I saw scratched into the sand in big 5″ letters: TRUST.

I froze. Who wrote that? Trust what? Trust who? My husband said, “Trust yourself.” Not exactly the message I wanted, but the truth was there. I couldn’t trust Cathy, but I could trust myself enough to walk away.

Going DeeperThere was a deeper lesson too. Trust isn’t blind faith or ignoring red flags. It’s really about discernment. Cathy showed me who she was. The real question became, did I trust myself to act on this new information? I sure did. Walking away from her wasn’t what I wanted, but it was the only thing to do.

You can’t expect everyone to do right by you. Yet, you don’t want to distrust everyone blindly either. When you trust yourself, you’ll stay open while knowing you’ll handle things if they go awry.

The Universe often teaches lessons through other people and relationships. Sometimes it comes in the form of disappointment or betrayal, while other times through support and friendship. Learn to trust yourself to respond appropriately when someone shows you who they are.

Over the years, I’ve learned to trust my gut. I feel the truth in my body. Often it shows up as something hard I know I have to do, but wish I didn’t.

So let’s talk about trust—trusting yourself, the Universe, and that whole magical dance between the two.

What Does “Trust the Universe” Mean?Trusting the Universe isn’t about astrology or seeing signs or manifesting. It’s about believing life isn’t out to get you, and that you are supported, even when all hell breaks loose.

When you surrender to the Universe, It’s not giving up. It’s letting go of needing to control the details or the outcome. Next time something goes wrong, pause and say, “I trust this will work out, even if I don’t know how.” Notice the shift.

To work on trusting the Universe, remember that you have a team of helpers in spirit including spirit guides, angels, and ancestors who all watch out for you.

You can also do things like pick an oracle card, pay attention to synchronicities and jot them down, and celebrate the hunches and signs you notice.

To trust yourself, think of this like buidling a muscle. You exercise and work it to strengthen it. You might read Gabby Bernstein’s book The Universe Has Your Back to get some insights and inspiration.

Trust YourselfNow flip the mirror to look within. To trust yourself means knowing you can survive mistakes, make better choices, and be more resilient. Without self-trust, even the Universe can’t guide you.

Every promise you keep to yourself, even tiny ones, reinforces that at least you’ve got your own back. Instead of thinking of mistakes as failures, consider them to be your teachers. Growth is messy but it proves you’re evolving.

Practice: Before your next decision, ask yourself, “If I trusted myself completely, what would I do?” Let your gut answer, not your doubts or ego.

Here’s a story about how much I trust myself. A couple of years ago, I quit a job right before I started. The man in charge had hired 50 coaches, and something felt off. I had an inner conversation with him, intuitively, and got the same strange answer twice. Intuitively, I heard him say, “Not my problem.”

Because I trusted my inner wisdom, I walked away, even after three interviews and training. Eighteen months later, reviews confirmed my knowing – they didn’t get paid. Trusting myself saved me from working for free. I do admit that I’m still working on trusting the Universe

Cultivating TrustLet’s get practical. Here are ways to build trust daily:

Pause, Breathe, Repeat: When fear hits, ask, “What if everything worked out for my highest good?”

Track Evidence: Write down times life surprised you or you overcame something hard. Use it as proof the Universe has your back.

Take Imperfect Action: Don’t wait until you’re ready. Hit publish, send the message, and start the thing. Trust grows when you lean in.

Universe + Yourself = MagicWhen you blend trust in yourself with trust in the universe, life gets lighter. You shift from gripping the steering wheel to co-creating with spirit. Like a surfer, you ride the waves and go with the flow, even if you’re nervous.

What are the benefits of living this way? Less anxiety. More flexibility. Openness in relationships. Even failures become stepping stones toward resilience and wisdom.

Trust Yourself Tricks1. When fear hits, breathe deeply and say, “The universe is working for me.” Pretend you believe it, even for a minute. 2. Before your next task, whisper, “I trust myself.” Ask, “What would I do if I trusted myself fully?” Let your body answer. 3. Take one small brave action each day and celebrate it.

The Universe is Not a GenieOne word of caution. The universe is not like a genie who will grant your wishes. The reason is sometimes you want things that might not be for your highest good. So, the universe will provide and help you, but the solution might not look exactly as you thought it would.

The best approach is not to be attached to the exact way things work out. What’s for your highest good might not match your precise wishes, but that doesn’t mean things won’t work out well. Let it be enough that things work out and receive the solution with grace as much as possible.

I’m not saying you can’t have what you want. Often you can. Just know that sometimes the best possible solution might look different than you planned.

There are times when not getting what you want is actually a gift. Especially when you look back and see how things might have turned out poorly in the long run.

Trusting yourself is built in micro-moments and big leaps, through laughter and lessons. It can be messy, it can be fun, but it always pays off.

So, trust yourself, keep showing up, and keep laughing when life goes sideways. The Universe and your soul have your back more than you imagine.

Struggle shows up in many ways and plays a crucial role in personal growth, societal progress, and spiritual development. It builds resilience, character, and ultimately shapes who you are.

When you struggle, it can be a powerful motivator, prompting you to adapt, learn, and strive for improvement. Facing challenges can also strengthen relationships and produce empathy.

But is it always required? Some people grow through joy, creativity, and inspiration instead of hardship. Let’s look at the purpose of struggle in three areas of life.

  1. Personal Growth and ResilienceCharacter Development: Struggle forces us to confront difficult emotions, overcome obstacles, and develop persistence.

Learning and Adaptation: By navigating challenges, we learn valuable lessons and problem-solving skills.

Self-Awareness: Struggle reveals our strengths, weaknesses, and areas we need to grow.

Defining Values: Hardship clarifies what truly matters to us.

Appreciating Success: Difficulties make us more grateful for life’s positive moments.

  1. Progress for SocietyInnovation and Change: Societal struggles often spark movements and scientific breakthroughs.

Motivating Action: Hardship can highlight injustices and inspire people to work toward a better world.

Building Solidarity: Shared experiences create connection and collective strength. This is what can bring people together for a common cause.

  1. Spiritual DevelopmentFinding Meaning: Struggle can spark reflection on life’s purpose.

Strengthening Faith: For some, adversity deepens trust in a higher power.

Spiritual Growth: Struggle can open the heart to compassion and empathy.

Living Authentically: It often pushes us to embrace our true selves.

Ultimately, struggle is an inherent part of being human. While painful, it’s also a powerful force for growth and meaning. As Jo Boaler, British educator and author of Limitless Mind, explains:

“We cannot achieve anything creative without being comfortable with mistakes and struggle—and we should all embrace times of struggle, knowing they are helping our brains. When we adopt a limitless perspective, approaching different jobs and conversations with a comfort with uncertainty and struggle, with a willingness to learn from others and with a flexible approach to problems, outcomes improve—in learning and in life.”

That’s the beauty and power of group work. Nothing else like it if you ask me. The connection to the Universe is amazing when we work together, because the energy is amplified significantly.

Struggling vs. SufferingHere’s where I want to pause for a moment and clarify. Struggle and suffering are not the same thing. Struggle can be short-term—it’s the effort, the push, the challenge.

Suffering, on the other hand, is often prolonged. It’s the ongoing pain, heaviness, or despair felt when you resist what is happening or attach to the story of the struggle. In many ways, suffering is struggle without acceptance.

Struggle may sharpen you, but suffering can wear you down if you stay stuck in it.

In my monthly Intuitive and Akashic Records group, one member asked how today’s suffering in the world impacts collective consciousness. This group has been working together for a couple of years to do intuitive work, which amplifies the energy significantly. That means we can access higher information for better answers,

Before diving into that, I’ve been curious about why so many people feel the world is in such a dreadful state. Is it really worse now than in other periods in history?

I asked AI to compare different historical periods. It ranked Black Plague in the 1400s as the worst—when 30–60% of Europe’s population died! Next came WWII certainly creating a lack of stability across the globe.

It also pointed out something I hadn’t considered. One thing that makes today feel so much worse than it might really be is the instant access to global news and social media. Every tragedy, act of violence, and natural disaster is broadcast immediately.

Our ancestors didn’t carry this weight of the world the way we do today. No wonder your nervous system feels maxed out!

Messages from the Akashic RecordsBack to the group session. Here are the messages that came through to answer the question about suffering and the collective.

My message: “Suffering isn’t required for growth. But resistance can create circumstances where suffering shows up as the push needed to evolve. Many people need that catalyst and your higher self will orchestrate that if it’s needed to get you moving.”

Kay’s message: “Yes, there is suffering and it adds up in the collective. However, be concerned with the self and not the collective. Too much time focusing on others or the collective becomes a distraction from your own personal growth. It’s better to focus yourself.”

Well you can let that free you up from worrying about the world and the collective consciousness!

Bee’s message: Lastly, I want to share what Bee got as a message. Hold onto your seat because this communication blew me away!

“There are many factors to humanity’s collective growth and awakening. Each person evolves in their own time/timeline. There is tremendous growth right now if you could only see it.

The low vibe or darkness keeps you at bay, so you’re suppressed to knowing there is so much light in the world, you would consider it blinding!

Raise your vibration. Raise your awareness to your abilities to go within. Step out of the matrix and you will see not only how you have evolved, but also how the planet as a whole has as well. Reconnect with nature and all that is your light shines brightly.”

OMG the light on earth is blinding! Imagine that.

I’ve mentioned before how Kryon, channeled by Lee Carol, said about 10 years ago that earth had achieved 26% light and what good news that was. According to Kryon, we only needed 25% light to handle the darkness in the world. Imagine what the percentage is now if spirit considers it to be blinding!

Really take that in for a moment and let it sink into your consciousness. There is so much light that if you could see it, it would appear blinding. In other words nothing else would be visible except the light.

In addition, since you are a part of everything and everything is a part of you, that means your light is blinding too!

A New Manifesting IdeaOf course, after these big revelations, I still find myself seesawing with personal struggles. Recently I saw article about how to manifest when you don’t know what you want. It was a good reminder that growth isn’t always clear-cut. I ended up writing my own affirmation, inspired by the article and the writer’s affirmation, as well as these ideas on struggle and growth.

“I surrender to this transformation of my life now and am moving to my next phase that’s fun, synchronistic, and so exciting. I trust the Universe and feel supported!”

Could that affirmation work for you too? I purposely included fun and excitement, that I may learn through joy and creativity vs. struggling.

How to Shift Out of SufferingIf you find yourself struggling or suffering, pause and ask, “Am I struggling productively, or am I suffering unnecessarily?”

Here are some suggestions to shift out of struggling and suffering:

  • Journal your feelings
  • Set energetic boundaries (especially if you’re an empath)
  • Breathe into acceptance
  • Reach out to a supportive friend

If you’re overwhelmed by the world’s pain, do what you can to let those thoughts float by. This is a place where distracting yourself is productive! Do something creative, play, sing, dance, but don’t allow yourself to sink into despair.

History shows humanity has lived through far worse than today’s corrupt world leaders and natural disasters.

So, Is Struggle Required?Not always. Growth will always ask something of you, but suffering and struggling are not always a must. You can meet change through joy, creativity, and flow just as much as through hardship.

The choice is how you engage with life’s challenges and your attitude toward growth. Embrace the changes, and you’ll struggle and suffer a whole lot less.

xoxo,
Ronnie

Today we’re diving into the real Mary Magdalene story. Not the repentant sinner you heard about in Sunday school, but Mary the priestess, the apostle, the mystic, and spiritual teacher who some early Christians, aka Gnostics, saw as Jesus’s equal partner in transmitting sacred wisdom.

A Divine TaleThis is a tale about divine feminine energy, suppressed teachings, and why understanding Mary’s true role might change how you see spiritual authority altogether.

So buckle up, because we’re about to uncover one of history’s greatest cover-ups.

I’ve been fascinated with the Mary Magdelene story for decades. When I first got wind of the idea that she was far more than a prostitute, I was completely hooked to learn more of her story.

Over 20 years ago I read the book The Woman with the Alabaster Jar by Margaret Starbird and absolutely loved it. She traced evidence about Mary Magdelene through history, in particular relying on art. While this may sound boring, it was actually super intriguing for me.

Years later in 2003, Dan Brown’s book The DaVinci Code was published. If you read the book or saw the movie, you know the story line is about how Jesus and Mary Magdelene had a child which is all about the blood line. Mary escaped to southern France, which I’ll talk more about in a few minutes.

The Official Mary MagdaleneHere’s what we know from the heavily edited and multiple-times translated biblical texts that made it into the official canon or what they call the Bible today:

  • Mary Magdalene shows up in all four gospels.
  • She’s there at the crucifixion when most of the male disciples had fled.
  • She’s there at the burial.
  • She’s the very first person to witness Jesus after the resurrection.

In a culture where women’s testimony wasn’t valid in court, Jesus chose a woman to be the first witness to the most important event in Christian history. The others didn’t believe her, yet the early church called her Apostola Apostolorum—the Apostle to the Apostles.

So how did she go from this central role to being remembered as a “fallen” woman?

The Great SilencingIn 591 CE, Pope Gregory the Great gave a sermon declaring that Mary Magdalene, the unnamed sinful woman who anointed Jesus’s feet, and Mary of Bethany were all the same person. That one statement recast the Apostle to the Apostles as a repentant prostitute—a label that lasted more than 1,400 years.

Modern scholarship shows these were three different women. In 1969, the Catholic Church quietly corrected the record in its revised liturgical calendar, but that’s not something you’ll often hear in a Sunday sermon.

Why merge these women into one “lowly” figure? In building a male-dominated church, stories of Jesus’s trusted female apostle—someone who received private teachings and comforted the disciples—posed a challenge to the idea that women should be silent in church.

The Lost GospelsIn 1945, the Nag Hammadi scrolls were discovered in Egypt. These ancient Christian (Gnostic) writings told a very different story about Jesus, this teachings, and hte role of Mary among other things..

The Gospel of Mary portrays her as a visionary leader. When the disciples are frozen in fear after Jesus’s death, she comforts them and reminds them of his teachings.

In this gospel, she also shares private teachings Jesus gave her alone, which infuriated Peter and made him question why Jesus would give his deepest wisdom to a woman.

The Gospel of Philip (also from Nag Hamadi) calls Mary Jesus’s “koinônos”, which is ancient Greek for “partner” or “companion,” and says he, “loved her more than all the disciples.” While this could represent the transmission of spiritual wisdom, the intimacy described is clearly special.

Some theories, like those in Margaret Starbird’s The Woman with the Alabaster Jar, suggest Mary Magdalene could have been Jesus’s wife, and represent the symbolic Holy Grail.

Starbird notes that the anointing ritual Mary did for Jesus used costly herbs and was also used as a marriage ritual at the time. So, its unlikely a poor woman would have done this.

The French ConnectionLegend says that after Jesus’s death, Mary fled to southern France. In the caves of Sainte-Baume, she is said to have spent her final years in contemplation and teaching—a site still visited by pilgrims today.

Across the region, mysterious Black Madonna statues can still be found today. While officially representing the Virgin Mary, some scholars believe these statues allowed women to continue honoring Mary Magdalene in secret.

The Black Madonna embodies the sacred feminine, earth wisdom, and embodied divinity—elements the official church tried to suppress.

Mary’s TeachingsMary’s recorded teachings focus on the soul’s journey beyond death, overcoming powers like desire, ignorance, wrath, and attachment. She wasn’t about rejecting life, but finding balance and avoiding being ruled by these forces.

She emphasized inner spiritual authority over external hierarchy. In her vision, the soul says: “I recognized myself and I gathered myself from everywhere.” Her path is about reclaiming the scattered pieces of yourself that may have been lost to relationships, jobs, expectations, or trauma. Then reintegrating these parts brings you into wholeness.

Mary also taught that the divine is not far away but within us, here and now. That’s why she could hold steady when others were afraid, because she knew fear wasn’t their deepest truth.

The Divine FeminineMary Magdalene represents the divine feminine, which is a way of being and not about gender. Her qualities include:

  • Intuitive wisdom over rigid dogma
  • Compassion in action over passive belief
  • Healing through presence, not just words
  • Courage to speak truth even when unwelcome
  • Seeing the sacred in what society rejects
  • She shows us how to stand in our knowing and sanctify the human experience instead of escaping it.

Why Mary Matters NowToday, many are reclaiming spiritual authority, questioning hierarchies, and seeking direct connection to the sacred. Mary’s message is to be fully human, fully embodied, and fully alive—and to let that be your path to the divine.

She also models how to navigate spiritual communities where jealousy or doubt arise. When Peter questioned her teachings, she didn’t shrink or apologize. She spoke what she knew and let others decide for themselves.

Walking the Magdalene PathIf you feel drawn to Mary Magdalene’s energy, try:

Rose Meditation: Hold a rose or use rose oil on your heart, breathing in the scent as you imagine calling back all scattered parts of yourself.

Anointing Ritual: With olive or essential oil, anoint your hands, heart, throat, and feet to honor your work, love, truth, and path.

Inner Authority Check-In: Before seeking advice, ask yourself, “What does my deepest knowing say?”

Sacred Pilgrimage: Visit places like Sainte-Baume or local sites with strong feminine energy.

Reclaiming What Was HiddenMary Magdalene’s story is alive every time you speak truth despite dismissal, trust your knowing over authority, or see sacredness where others do not.

The church never erased her completely. Her beloved presence lived on through art, mystics, healers, and secret traditions. Today, she’s emerging again as the powerful, deeply loving spiritual force she always was.

Here’s something to consider – what part of your spiritual authority are you ready to reclaim? What truth is calling you to speak? This is the time for such things!

Mary’s story proves that no decree, no doctrine, no power on earth can bury the truth forever. Let’s take a page out of Mary Magdalene’s story. If her truth could survive centuries of silencing, and remain alive through whispers, legends, and hidden texts to burst into the light 2,000 years later, then yours can ripple out starting now.

Every time you speak from your heart, act from your knowing, and shine your light, you’re adding your own verse to the power of the divine feminine. This is your moment to let the world finally see who you are—because your story, like Mary’s, was never meant to be hidden.

So shine brightly, and let your light ripple across the web of life, sparking optimism, energy, and connection wherever it touches.

Over the last couple of weeks, my emotions have been all over the place due to let’s call it light family drama. Waves of sadness would hit, seemingly out of nowhere.

Lion’s Gate PortalJust as I started writing notes for this episode, I remembered that we’re in the midst of the Lion’s Gate portal (July 28th – August 12th). This portal creates heightened spiritual energy for personal growth and transformation. The peak is August 8th, the day this podcast was published.

Lion’s Gate is known for stirring up emotions and I’m feeling it! That energetic window intensifies feelings and brings up anything you thought you’d already worked through for another crack at the lesson. Oh joy.

Here’s My StorySo yes, I have a story about family drama or more specifically, how I allowed myself to be spiral down emotionally and what it took to recover and find my way back to center.

I’m not getting into the nitty-gritty, but I felt hurt and left out. It wasn’t just one incident, but a series of small moments that added up.

For example, there was a family event, and I wasn’t on the invitation list. Someone noticed the oversight and I did get a late invite. This wasn’t intentional — I truly believe that. Yet, I can’t help but think it was a subconscious thing.

The first thing I did was talk about it with friends and my husband. Everyone listened and were supportive, and I truly appreciated their kindness. But did it actually help? Not really. I still felt out of sorts.

A couple of people suggested ways to handle it or steps to take. However, nothing felt quite right. Deep down, I knew it was up to me to either change the situation or change how I was seeing it.

Navigate on My OwnI needed to find a way to navigate through without making it worse, especially since there was nothing concrete I could point to, and no specific harm done to me. It was more about what hadn’t happened, you know what I mean?

Time was spent wondering what my mom, who passed seven years ago, would say about all this. She was outspoken, like me. I thought about contacting a medium to hear her take from the other side, but I didn’t go through with it.

In the meantime, I did everything I know how to do when I’m emotionally stuck. I journaled, meditated, and asked my guides and angels for insight. And got… nothing. Total crickets.

This is not unusual when I’m in an emotional tailspin. One of the things I tell my clients is that your intuition gets wonky when you’re upset. It’s like trying to get a clear radio signal from a distant station. You get static.

4 Phases to Emotional RecoveryEventually, I began my emotional recovery with Phase 1: Awareness. I caught myself in the midst of obsessing and said, “Okay, that’s enough.”

Shifting to gratitude practice, I thought of everything good in my life and worked to embody it. This was explained in detail during a recent episode on upleveling gratitude.

That should have worked. But it didn’t. My mind, stubborn and strong, snapped back to the same sad narrative. I was stuck in a dismal thought loop that actually was keeping me up at night.

That led me to Phase 2: Empowered Action. I shifted the question from, “Why do I feel this way?” to “What can I do about this?”

Two Paths of ActionI saw two paths:

1) Reach out to my family. Maybe apologize for any unintentional harm I might have caused. I say unintentional because I couldn’t think of anything specific I might done wrong.

2) Take care of myself and try a spiritual reset.

The first path gave me pause. Was I ready to have that conversation? Would the apology be authentic or was it an attempt to smooth things over, so I could feel better? Being uncomfortable, I wanted to fix things.

Still, something didn’t sit right. I meditated on it, hoping for guidance. Again silence. Then I remembered my go-to spiritual reset for problem solving, which is chanting the Ganesha mantra.

Ganesha MantraGanesha, the Hindu elephant-headed God, is known as the remover of obstacles. A powerful ally if you ask me. I played a 21-minute version of “Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha Shanam Ganesha” and let it wash over me. I walked to it, listened at my desk, and sang it myself.

That night, I dreamt of dolphins and whales. In the dream I was at the beach (where I’ve spent a lot of time lately), and saw playful dolphins in the water. Farther out, whales surfaced, slow and majestic.

I opened my dream book by Betty Bethards, and her interpretations were perfect for what I was going through!

Dolphins: Joy, connection, and playfulness, and the ability to play in the emotional waters of life and not fear relationships.

Whales: Emotional depth and healing, wisdom, powerful intuition, and a big opportunity might be coming my way.

Suddenly, I felt a shift!

Reaching AcceptanceThe next day came Phase 3: Acceptance. Sitting at the beach, my guides popped some surprisingy different questions into my mind. I say my guides because this lie of thought wasn’t likely on my own.

  • What if I’m misreading the situation?
  • What if I’m reacting not to facts, but to the story I’m telling myself?
  • What if I’ve created a narrative that’s heavier than the truth?

Those questions made me rethink everything that had been circulating in my mind. It was time to accept that I might be making a bigger deal out of this than it truly was.

The next day I finally pulled some cards. Why didn’t I do this sooner? From the Aura Soma color therapy deck, I drew purple and green. This combination helps dissolve negativity and restore self-confidence. Yes, please.

The second card was the combination of clear and bright pink, inviting me to “Not take myself so seriously, bring in humor and lighten up.” OK!

Be Quiet and ObserveThen I switched to the Faery Forest deck and got the Cunning Faery Woman. Her message? “Don’t talk or act. Just observe. Be silent and let people reveal themselves. See truth by what is happening vs. story, imagination, and interpretation.” Whoa! That was so specific and on target!

This guidance lined up perfectly with what I’d already started feeling. Maybe the story I was obsessing over wasn’t accurate. Perhaps what I needed most wasn’t to confront or fix, but to drop it and let go.

And just like that was the arrival of Phase 4: Liberation. The energy shifted was complete. I was no longer dragging around all that victim stuff and hurt feelings anymore. I let go through clarity of recognizing the truth. Big Truth.

I finally understood this was about me going within, becoming more independent, and reclaiming my emotional balance.

So, no big family talk or dramatic apology. Just me, being still and relying on myself.

Finding PeaceI’m learning (again) that peace isn’t always about resolution. Sometimes it’s about re-centering myself, shutting down the stories, and remembering my worth, regardless of what anyone else does or doesn’t do.

If you’re dealing with family drama or emotional tension, I invite you to ask yourself:

  • Am I reacting to the situation, or to the story I’m telling myself about it?
  • Can I create peace even if nothing gets fixed?
  • What if healing comes from focusing on my own joy and wholeness?

Family drama is real and sometimes you have to stand up for yourself, speak up, address things, and have the hard conversations. On the other hand, sometimes the problem is wrapped up in layers of old stories and expectations, and mostly within.

The magic happens when you pause, feel what you’re feeling, and then choose to empower yourself. That’s my advice on family issues. And remember to breathe love and magic, which always helps a lot.

In this episode, I reveal the gory details of a dramatic Holy Fire Reiki session with my guest Cindy Bain. She’s a Holy Fire III Reiki Master who’s not only deeply gifted but also warm, wise, and totally tuned in.

Reiki’s EvolutionFirst, let me briefly explain Reiki in case you are new to this modality. Reiki was ushered into the world by Mikao Usui of Japan in 1920, adn then to Hawaii in 1937 by his student Takata.

It was a gentle healing technique using hands to channel universal life force energy. Often described as calming, soothing, and supportive of the body’s natural healing process, today that barely scratches the surface.

Cindy explained how Reiki has significantly grown and expanded. She’s trained at the Master level in three styles—Tibetan Usui, Karuna, and the supercharged Holy Fire World Peace Reiki.

Each has its own energetic frequency and flavor. Holy Fire III, in particular, carries a high-vibration frequency that works on deep spiritual and emotional levels. This is soul-deep energy work.

Not a Spa-Day Reiki SessionI had no idea how much Reiki had changed since I first took Reiki I back in 1990and then became a Master in 1994. Thirty years is plenty of time for an energetic evolution, and wow…has it ever evolved! This is no longer some pleasant spa treatment!

Cindy’s sessions are simply amazing, blending multiple Reiki energy methods with past life work. Sometimes she even ventures into the faery realm, depending on what your soul requires.

The first thing she noticed during my session was an energetic “shield” around me. It had once served as protection, but now it was outdated and holding me back. She gently released it, freeing me up for more growth and expansion.

Next she found me in the faery realm. She saw me half in sparkling faery light and the other half in the shadows. Apparently, I’d encountered a dark elemental somewhere along the way. Cindy cleared that too, so I could fully stand in the light where I belong.

What really surprised me was that I never told her about my connection to nature spirits. But there she was, seeing the situation that needed to be addressed.

Gratitude as a GatewayAnother gem from our session was the suggestion that gratitude could open the door to more joy for me. I’ve followed through with that and did an entire episode on how to embody gratitiude. This explains the new practice I’m using that has been incredbily helpful!

Healing an Ancient BetrayalThe next thing Cindy found and addressed was a difficult past life. She saw a lifetime where I practiced herbal magic and healing and was tragically betrayed by a mentor who turned out to be a dark witch. I was lured into a coven and sacrificed for my light. Heavy stuff, right?

Cindy immediately saw a powerful way to rewrite this devastating ending. She placed me in a radiant column of white light that actually revived me and scattered the entire group of women, never to regroup again. I loved how she shifted the image – so powerful, satisfying, and seriously empowering.

That betrayal explained so much about my current-day issues with trusting spiritual teachers and authority figures. That’s the kind of multidimensional healing Reiki offers.

Breaking Through the CrownAs we wrapped up, Cindy uncovered one last impediment – a heavy metal plate covering my crown chakra. Instantly, I remembered my first attempt at meditation years ago. A surge of purple light rushed in pushing down harshly on my head. My heart pounded and I could hardly breathe. It was intense… and a little terrifying.

Back then, I had no idea what was happening. I instinctively focused on my breath, trying to calm myself. Eventually, the sensations passed and I opened my eyes, shaken but okay.

Now, with Cindy’s insight, it all made sense. That iron plate had been blocking my crown chakra for decades. No wonder I’d felt spiritually stifled at times.

Soul CleansingThis Holy Fire Reiki experience was so much more than a relaxing session. It was a deep, soul-cleansing adventure across time and space. From past-life healing to energetic upgrades, it reminded me that I am always being guided towards my best possible self.

If Reiki appeals to you, rely on your intuition when choosing a practitioner. You want to work with someone who feels safe, speaks your soul’s language and helps you feel seen and heard.

Whether you’re navigating grief, stuck energy, or simply craving spiritual upleveling, Reiki can transform the energy and gently lift you.

In a recent crossover podcast episode with my friend Melissa Oatman, host of Awaken Your Inner Awesomeness podcast, we got into a juicy conversation on the power of our words. It’s HUGE!

We explored how the words we speak, out loud and to ourselves, shape our reality. Words impact our energy and even steer our spiritual path. Let’s get into some of the highlights from this inspiring conversation.

The Power of Our Words Is Magic!Words are like little spells. Whether you realize it or not, they carry energy which absolutely matters. Your language influences how you feel, what you believe, and even how things play out in your life.

Think about how often you throw around phrases like, “I’m drowning in work” or “This is killing me” or even “What a pain in the ass.” It might seem harmless, but those words can create an energetic echo that subtly starts shaping your reality.

This is where the law of attraction kicks in. The words you use are like seeds that take root in the subconscious. Over time, they grow into beliefs, feelings, and patterns—good or bad. That’s why being more intentional with what you say can create big shifts.

Even replacing a little self-deprecating humor or those habitual negative phrases with something more positive can totally change the vibe you put out into the world. Not only that, but also what you inviting back in.

Is It Really Crumbling? Or Just Shifting?One topic Melissa and I dove into was the language being used right now, especially in the US spiritual community. There’s a lot of talk about how things are “crumbling”—our institutions, our systems, all of it. But is that really what’s happening?

What if, instead of saying things are falling apart, we say they’re shifting?

Words like “crumbling” tend to bring up fear. They can make us feel powerless, like everything’s slipping out of control. But shifting? That feels different. That feels hopeful, empowering, and even exciting. It frames change as evolution instead of destruction.

And no, this doesn’t mean we pretend everything’s okay. It just means we’re choosing to engage with what’s happening from a more empowered place. When speaking of transformation instead of collapse, you open yourself and others to curiosity, possibility, and new solutions.

Joy Is Powerful – Lift Your VibeNo question about it – getting caught up in today’s heaviness is so easy. There’s a lot going on in the world, and it can drag you down if you let it. But here’s the thing to keep in mind – joy is powerful. Gratitude is magnetic. They lift your vibe and ripple out to everyone around you.

Tapping into joy isn’t about turning away from the world’s pain—it’s about refusing to drown in it. When you focus on what brings peace, delight, and love, you raise your vibration. That energy matters. It helps heal, strengthens the light within, which becomes a gift you offer others without even trying.

Anchor the Light, Shine the ShiftWhen you choose words like “shifting” instead of “crumbling,” this choice creates a very real energetic shift. “Shifting” has the power of flow. It suggests movement, evolution, and growth. It helps lighten the emotional load and makes space for hope, ease, and inspiration.

Melissa and I aren’t pretending things aren’t hard right now. But we want to encourage you to be conscious and to hold a positive vision of what’s possible. This is how you can avoid getting stuck in fear and why it’s so important to remember the power of our words.

When you raise your own energy, you naturally invite others to rise with you. Language becomes a lighthouse drawing others toward a higher frequency. That’s where things feel more manageable and less overwhelming or frightening.

The beautiful part is when you consistently use words that uplift, you help create a more positive collective experience. You help nurture a space where growth, healing, and transformation can happen more easily—not just for yourself, but for your community too.

Who Is Winning – Dark Vs. Light?

Community, Healing & SupportOf course, staying hopeful all the time isn’t easy. That’s where community becomes even more important. You don’t have to do this alone. Whether you have a Reiki or energy healing, request intuitive guidance, or engage in any supportive tool, working with the right people makes a huge difference.

Melissa and I both offer healing sessions designed to help clear energy blocks, raise your frequency, and help you realign with your inner power. Healers need healing too!

We both did sessions for each other! Reaching out for support is exactly what clears the fog and helps you move forward with clarity, strength, and a more positive outlook. Melissa started singing her happy song by Shania Twain after her session ended, uplifting her energy and that of her home too!

Time to Crown YourselfHere’s one of the most powerful takeaways from our conversation builds on my podcast last week with Allison Stillman talking about being a queen. It’s time to crown yourself. Not taking on more pressure or responsibility but claiming your own sovereignty. You are the authority in your own life. Choose how you show up, care for yourself, and share your light.

This kind of self-empowerment is based on alignment. It’s about showing up as your full self, caring deeply for your well-being, and using your words to support and nurture your path.

So yes, the power of our words is tremendous. When used intentionally, the right words help shape your life and a world filled with more kindness, light, and positive possibilities.

Go ahead and wear that crown. Speak with intention. Shine that beautiful light of yours, and help co-create a collective shift that feels expansive, loving, and filled with possibility.

Do you sometimes feel like you’re running on fumes, holding everyone else together while quietly unraveling inside? Change is upon us and it’s time to recognize you are a Queen!

What if I told you that your exhaustion isn’t weakness, but a summons from your higher self and the Universe?

A Soul Level InvitationFeeling stretched to the limit is a soul-level invitation to remember who you really are. Because you weren’t meant to live bone-tired or feel invisible. You were meant to live as a queen. Not a ruler of others, but a sacred steward of your own energy, joy, and divine rhythm.

This is about being empowered and the crown is already yours. The only question is, will you recognize this and learn how to wear it?

Talking with AngelsBefore we dive in, let me tell you a little about my guest. Allison Stillman has been talking to angels since she was a child. Of course, like many of us, she doubted herself at first. Were these voices real? Was she just making it all up?

Yet, she kept getting wild, undeniable signs. She’d ask the angels to show her something unmistakable to let her know she wasn’t making things up.

One time, while out swimming with the wild dolphins, she asked the angels to have dolphins leap from the water at the same time to prove they were with her. Then bam, two dolphins broke the water’s surface, tail flips and all.

Eventually, Allison stopped doubting. We all have guardian angels or celestial allies who want to help. But they won’t interfere or help unless you ask. Free will is the rule on planet earth.

So, if you want help, say it out loud. Invite them in. Your divine team is standing by at the ready!

A Sacred PauseRecently, Allison took a sabbatical. She was told by spirit to rest, reflect, and stop working for a few months. She didn’t know it, but her angelic guides had a different agenda. This was a time for healing and leveling up for a new mission. Then, loud and clear they told her, “It’s time to reach more people in a bigger way with lots more love.”

Her timeout was more like a chrysalis or sacred recalibration, giving her a chance to say yes to a bigger mission.

New programs started flowing through her as she stepped fully into her own power and transformation. The new goal is to assist the rising collective. She has a hand in supporting ascension on earth, particularly for women.

Because let’s face it: the world is shifting quickly and those of us who are tuned in are being called to show up like never before.

Queen Energy Is No Longer OptionalIn one surprising meditation, Allison was visited by none other than Queen Elizabeth II. Yes, that Queen! She’d never connected before. Did she speak of royalty and protocol? Nope, her message was very clear. It’s time to claim your own sovereignty and help other women do the same.

This is what queen energy is really about – taking care of yourself and feeling empowered. Being queenly is not ruling over others but learning to rule over yourself with wisdom, love, grace, and firm boundaries.

Queen energy is about remembering the truth of who you are before the world told you otherwise. Allison believes every woman carries the code of the queen inside her.

Wear the Crown – Say No Like You Mean ItStepping into sovereignty starts with little things, like learning to say no when your body or intuition says no. Or choosing rest over people-pleasing and owning your life unapologetically.

Allison reminded us that one of the most queenly things you can do is… pause and say not to…

Things that drains you.
The person who takes and takes.
The old story that says you don’t deserve more or you aren’t good enough.

Every time you say no to what’s misaligned, you say yes to your magic, clarity, radiance, and true potential. It’s the reason you’re here. Being a queen is about raising your vibration and following a new way to move through life.

The Divine Feminine Is on the RiseRight now, we’re experiencing a cosmic shift. The old structures built on domination and hierarchy are no longer working. They will be replaced by a new way, led by the divine feminine with love, compassion, and cooperation.

This energy is softer, yet fierce in a different way. The sacred feminine doesn’t seek to conquer. She wants to connect, support, and protect!

Whether you choose to see yourself as a priestess, goddess, or queen, you pick your flavor because it doesn’t really matter. The important point is that you try one of the titles on. Walk through the world like your presence alone changes the room. Because it does.

This is a time to remember how things used to be on earth, when women were reveered because we held the key to creation.

Make Yourself a Priority You can’t lead, guide, love, or create if your well is empty. Queenly sovereignty begins with you. How you treat yourself and talk to yourself.

For example, get the massage, take a nap, or walk barefoot in the grass and feel the Earth supporting you. These aren’t indulgences, but esssential recalibrations of your frequency.

The more you nourish yourself, the more you can radiate that nourishment outward. That’s how queens lead properly, from that place of overflowing energy, brimming with goodness and light.

A Gift for YouAllison has a Free Gift for you to download – her ebook, How to Transform Your Life. It’s a gentle, yet powerful guide with one daily practice to align your energy with love. That’s the heart of what we talked about in this podcast.

To live as love, breathe love, and let love rearrange your life from the inside out.

Imagine what would happen if millions of women stepped into their sovereignty? They’d be radiant, rested, and rooted in love. And the world would change. Maybe it already is.

So take this as your invitation. Pick up your crown. Dust it and make it really sparkly. Then wear it like you mean it. Own it girlfriend – the time is now!

  • Here’s something they didn’t teach you in school – an ancient trail of secrets that features women as the sacred feminine and holding leadership roles.

In ancient times, bees were considered oracles, priestesses, messengers between worlds, and keepers of divine feminine wisdom. This is a role they played for millennia before being quietly buried by patriarchal conquest and religious rewrite.

So what happened? Why were bees once seen as divine and then later just…bugs? More importantly, what wisdom do bees still carry, waiting for you and me to remember?

The Forgotten ConnectionAcross cultures and continents, bees were once honored as sacred. Not just useful but sacred. They were linked to the Goddess, to feminine power, to creation, fertility, rebirth, and spiritual truth. From Ancient Greece and Egypt, to Celtic lands and Hindu temples, bees appeared in myth, ritual, and prophecy.

This is no coincidence.

Bee societies are matriarchal. The hive revolves around the queen. The hive survives because of the feminine — the worker bees who gather pollen and nectar to feed the community.

Bees pollinate, meaning they literally create life. And honey is the miraculous, sweet elixir — an alchemical product of collective feminine labor. Symbolically, the bee hive represents the power of feminine cooperation, nourishment, fertility, and transformation.

What Happened to the Sacred Bee?Let’s rewind the clock. Long before Christianity or Islam or Rome, the Goddess reigned. Temples to the Great Mother dotted the ancient world. They honored her as Gaia, Inanna, Isis, Artemis, Brigid, Demeter.

These goddesses were often surrounded by bees, both real and symbolic.

In ancient Greece, Melissae were priestesses of the Goddess — literally named after bees. “Melissa” means “honeybee” in Greek. These women were oracles, wisdom keepers, providers of spiritual truth. They danced in spirals, hummed like bees, and served as channels between the seen and unseen worlds.

But starting in the late Bronze Age (1200 BCE), things began to shift. There were many causes including climate change, war, disease, and migrations of patriarchal, warlike tribes with sky gods and swords. Goddess-centered cultures were dismantled, their priestesses erased, and their temples destroyed.

Then came the Roman Empire. By the 4th century AD, Emperor Theodosius banned all “pagan” practices. Goddess temples were shut. The sacred flame of Vesta was extinguished and her priestesses disbanded.

Early on the Church had female clergy, but they too were banished. What had been divine was recast as primitive, dangerous and anything but Godly. But all was not lost.

Hiding in Plain SightHistory tried to bury these traditions, but they didn’t vanish. They went underground. A woman named Max Dashu began her life’s work in 1970, researching and documenting global woman’s history to rediscover the role of women in ancient societies.

Scotland’s Rosslyn Chapel is a church already steeped in mystery and rumored ties to Mary Magdalene. In 2010 during rennovations, workers discovered a hidden beehive replica tucked inside a pinnacle. It’s a secret shrine and a literal hive inside a Christian chapel!

Coincidence? Hardly. Bee symbology survived maybe not in public temples, but in folk tales, embroidery, old sayings, and stone carvings. Sacred knowledge doesn’t die. It hides and waits to be rediscovered.

A Global Sisterhood of BeesBees and the divine feminine are not just a Greek thing. The bee-goddess link shows up everywhere. Let me take you on a brief world tour.

In Ancient Egypt, bees were believed to be born from the tears of the sun god Ra. They symbolized cosmic order and were linked to the soul’s journey in the afterlife.

Babylon and Sumer – the great goddesses Inanna and Ishtar were linked with bees and honey — representing transformation, fertility, and feminine power.

In the Hebrew Bible, the prophetess Deborah (whose name literally means “bee”) led armies and delivered divine guidance — a rare case of female spiritual leadership preserved in a patriarchal text.

India – the goddess Bhrami is often depicted with bees, and honey is one of the five sacred elixirs in Hindu ritual. In the yogic practice of Bhramari Pranayama — the “bee breath” — the hum of the bee is used to awaken inner energy and soothe the nervous system.

In Celtic traditions, bees were messengers from the Otherworld. Honey was sacred — used in rituals for healing and divination. The hive was seen as a symbol of perfect community since it’s cooperative, mystical, and wise.

This is a global spiritual pattern. One that points to something profound and feminine. Different lands, same story – the bee as sacred, feminine, and wise.

Bees Embody the Feminine DivineWhy have so many cultures linked bees with the divine feminine? Here are 6 reasons:

Matriarchal Structure: The queen rules the hive, with a small male population present only during mating season.

Pollination & Fertility: Bees help life bloom and bear fruit.

Creation & Transformation: Nectar becomes honey — like ordinary effort turned into divine sweetness.

Communication: Their sacred waggle dance mirrors infinity — and bridges the seen and unseen.

Cooperation & Harmony: A hive thrives not through domination but unity.

Buzz = Frequency: Their hum carries healing vibrations — a sacred song of the Earth.

Check out these two YouTube videos of bees buzzing in the hive and see if you feel the buzz in your own body like I did.

Sacred Bee Wisdom TodayModern spiritual seekers are rediscovering the sacred bee and weaving it into spiritual practice.

Try adding these to your altar:

  • Beeswax candles – for purity and transformation.
  • Honey – for anointing your third eye or heart, or as an offering.
  • Queen Bee figurine – to honor your sovereignty.
  • Lavender, rose, or yarrow – bee-loving herbs as offerings.

You can also try:

  • Oracle cards: Pull from the Melissae Oracle or Bee Tarot.
  • Meditation: Listen to hive recordings on YouTube. (I linked my favorites in the show notes.)
  • Movement: Spiral, sway, and dance like the Melissae did.
  • Goddess invocation: Call in Demeter, Artemis, Bhramari Devi, or simply the Sacred Feminine.

In a meditation I listened to a bee buzz video and my guides told me:

“The hum reduces anxiety and syncs you with divine frequency. Let it raise your vibration. Let it help you remember you are part of the sisterhood. You are sweetness and power.”

The Sacred Feminine is RisingWe live in a time when bees are endangered, but this is more than ecological crisis. It’s symbolic. The sacred feminine has been endangered and suppressed. Thankfully, it hasn’t been totally destroyed or erased.

The bees are not just nostalgic symbols. They’re living metaphors.

They remind us that sweetness is strength and cooperation creates miracles. The fact is, sacred power doesn’t have to roar – it can hum and still nourish the soul and the world.

Reclaiming the bee is about reclaiming ourselves. To honor bees is to honor the divine feminine within you — your wisdom, your rhythm, your resilience.

Welcome back, priestess. The hive has been waiting for you to reclaim your sacred feminine.

Do you have a gratitude practice? Ready to level up? Here’s how to embody gratitude to heal yourself and the world.

Learning about GratitudeWhen I first started coaching, I had a business coach named Teri. She was wise, firm, and not one to indulge negativity and panic. I’d show up to our sessions, ready to blurt out all the things that were going wrong.

Before I could launch into my dramatic monologue, she’d stop me cold. “First, tell me three good things you are grateful for.” she’d say. Ugh.

At the time, I wanted to strangle her. I was barely keeping my head above water—what on earth was there to be grateful for? I was overwhelmed, not making enough money, and caught in a nonstop loop of “What if this never works?”

But that’s the thing, Gratitude doesn’t come naturally when you’re in a funk. It fact, sometimes it’s really it hard. That’s why it’s called a “practice.” At the time It felt like I was rolling down hill at a breakneck pace, never to climb up again.

Gratitude PracticeLooking back, I can see her brilliance. Teri wasn’t trying to be annoying, but teaching me to shift my energy. Honestly I haven’t always kept up with the practice, but there have been many times when I put this to use.

There isn’t much else that I have found that will shift my perspective to see what is actually working and that I almost always have plenty to be grateful for.

Even now, I still have to work on this. Gratitude isn’t a one-and-done deal. It’s a way of being and it improves your health. And recently, in a healing session, I was told something quite unexpected.

“You need to embody gratitude.” My first reaction was, “Um, what does that even mean?” Okay, time for more research!

What Does Embody Gratitude Mean?To embodying gratitude goes far beyond saying, “Thank you'” checking off a list, or scribbling a few nice things in a journal. Certainly, these are great starters.

But for me right now, it’s time to level up. That means I need to allow the energy of gratitude to take up residence within me so fully that it reshapes my thoughts, my nervous system, and the way I walk through the world.

It’s time to start feeling gratitude in my bones, in my breath, in how I show up on a random Tuesday afternoon. I’ve been assured, when I get there, that’s when the big shifts will start appearing.

The High-Vibe You WantLet’s start with this basic idea – Everything is energy. You. Me. The chair you’re sitting on. Your emotions. Even that pile of laundry staring at you from across the room.

Every emotion has a frequency. Low-vibe feelings like fear, grief, or frustration hum at a slower, heavier rate. But gratitude? That emotion buzzes at a much higher rate that puts you in the flow, where life feels easier and more aligned, and you become more magnetic.

When you embrace gratitude, you’re tuning up your whole energy field. You become a match for the other kinds of experiences that vibrate at that same high frequency such as joy, peace, abundance, and connection.

Gratitude Is MagneticThe more you give thanks to Source, God, your angels, or higher self for what’s going well, the more things show up to be grateful for. Yup, like attracts like just as the Law of Attraction states.

This is the energy of co-creation. When you truly feel grateful and really feel it, you send out a signal that says, “Yes, please. More of this.” The Universe (or your higher self) is listening and responds.

You become like a lighthouse, glowing with gratitude. That’s when people, opportunities, ideas, and synchronicities start showing up at your door.

Here’s the key. This energy has to be real and authentic. You can’t force it, or fake it. You can’t sprinkle on a layer of gratitude like glitter and expect this level of magic. It only works when it’s genuine and grounded in the present moment.

When Gratitude Feels ImpossibleLet’s be honest. Some days, gratitude feels about as natural as hugging a cactus. You’re in a bad mood. You’re tired. Someone cut you off in traffic again. And suddenly you’re expected to smile and feel thankful? Nope. It’s not happening. That’s OK.

Here’s what to say to yourself, “It’s OK to feel how I feel. And after I feel it and process a bit, then I will allow myself to shift gently to an upgraded energy where gratitude is once again possible.”

You don’t have to pretend everything’s amazing. Just look for one tiny positive spark. Even a flicker will help you soften hard edges and open to the higher frequency.

  • The warmth of your coffee
  • A funny text from a friend
  • A smile from your child
  • A moment of quiet that lasts longer than usual.

Start with something small and let that moment open the door. Once you feel a whisper of true gratitude, the energy begins to move. Your field starts to clear and vibrate at a higher rate. You reconnect with the flow.

Gratitude’s Energetic FieldWhen you embody gratitude, you’re doing far more than boosting your mood. You’re transforming your entire energetic field. You are literally raising the vibe or signals you’re sending out into the world.

Have you ever walked into a room and felt instantly better just because someone was beaming? That’s embodied gratitude in action. That person isn’t just tossing out compliments—they’re radiating a frequency that uplifts everyone around them. There is a massive ripple effect. Yes, it’s contagious in the best way.

Gratitude lives in your heart and your aura, and when you anchor it deeply, people can feel it. They feel safer, lighter, and more drawn to your presence.

The Meaning of EmbodimentLet’s take a moment to clarify what exactly embodiment means from an energetic perspective.

Vibrational Alignment – Gratitude is an energy or frequency that you emit. When you focus on what is going right, even during challenges, you raise your vibration and attract more positive experiences according to the Law of Attraction.

State of Abundance – By embodying gratitude, you shift from a mindset of lack to one of abundance. This means appreciating what is already present in your life and feeling whole and complete, which in turn elevates your energetic state.

Present-Moment Awareness Energetic gratitude is deeply connected to being present. By tuning into your senses and the sensations in your body, you allow gratitude to flow through you, creating a state of energetic openness and receptivity.

Co-Creation with the Universe – From this perspective, gratitude is a bridge that connects you to the abundant intelligence of the universe. When you embody gratitude, you align with and magnetize the flow of blessings, opportunities, and abundance into your life.

Transformative Power – You become a source of good vibes, radiating positive energy that influences your reality and the people around you.

Gratitude Is a SensationThis is where people get stuck. They think about gratitude instead of feeling it. Tune in, don’t think. Rather than mentally listing things, pause and ask yourself, “Where in my body do I feel a softening when I think of something good?”

Maybe it’s a taking a deep breath, letting out a big sigh, or feeling those goosebumps that let you know you‘re connected to spirit. That’s the energy of embodiment. That’s gratitude becoming embodied.

Embodied vs. Intellectual GratitudeThinking about something you’re grateful for and actually feeling grateful are two different things. Intellectual gratitude feels like a checklist, is often not emotional, and comes from the mind.

On the other hand, embodied gratitude, feels like warmth, expansion, or peace. It pulses out from your body and energy field and leaves you feeling nourished and connected.

Next time you’re “doing gratitude,” ask yourself, “Am I feeling this in my body, or thinking about it?” If you discover thinking, take time to tune in.

Gratitude Up Levels Your VibeWhen you begin to live from the vibration of gratitude, you become someone who attracts instead of chases. Someone who radiates instead of drains energy. Someone who walks through the world with presence, power, and peace.

You’ll notice conversations shift, small joys feel bigger, the right people show up and you feel steadier, even when things get bumpy. Everything won’t become perfect, but your energy is clear and your field is open. That’s you living in a state that welcomes miracles.

Cheat Sheet to Embody Gratitude Slow down. Let your nervous system catch up with your mind.
Rely on your senses to be in the moment.
Breathe as a bridge to embody gratitude.
Let gratitude rise from the body, not the brain.
Radiate gratitude out to the world.
Remember it, even when you don’t feel like it.

To embody gratitude, you just tune into the higher frequency. Remember your power. The fastest way to reconnect with that energy is to feel the beauty and joy that’s already there.

Gratitude is the pulse of life flowing through you when you pause long enough to feel it. Take a breath and let gratitude lift you. You’re ready.

This week, don’t just breathe love and magic, breathe gratitude as well.

What’s the difference is between your soul vs. higher self? Are they the same? Is one your boss and the other whispering conflicting advice at 2am?

Stick with me, because we’re going to break it all down in a way that’s simple, practical. This is a discussion about two powerhouse aspects of yourself.

The Big Picture—Who’s Who?I’m going to talk about how these two powerhouse aspects of you can help you manuever through this crazy life on earth so you can learn the lessons you’ve chosen and have the experiences you desire.

Let’s start with an image. You’re on a road trip. You, behind the wheel, snacks in hand, music blasting—that’s your human self. Trying to make good choices, occasionally getting lost, sometimes stopping at a weird gas station that smells like burnt coffee and regret.

Your soul? That’s the car. It’s been through lifetimes, carrying your essence from one trip to the next. It remembers every twist, turn, triumph, and trauma. It holds your deepest desires, your wounds, your wisdom. It’s the part of you that grows.

Your higher self? That’s your internal GPS. Always connected to the satellite or Source. It sees the whole map, even when you can’t. It’s not here to scold you for wrong turns. It lovingly reroutes you, again and again, toward your highest path. Whether or not you listen is up to you.

The Soul’s Job: Experience, Growth, and EmotionYour soul is on a long-term journey through time. It’s collecting experiences, evolving lifetime after lifetime like a cosmic PhD program. Some souls are young, learning the basics. Others are seasoned and wise, walking around with an inner depth you can’t quite explain.

Ever notice patterns in your life? Same struggles, same relationships, same type of job drama—just with different haircuts and names? Yep. That’s karma.

Think of karma as unfinished business. Lessons you didn’t fully master last time come knocking again. Not to punish you, but to give you another shot at choosing differently.

Try this Exercise:
Jot down patterns that keep showing up in your life. What’s the common thread? What might your soul be trying to work out through these experiences?

Soul Contracts & RetrievalAnd then there are soul contracts. The pre-birth agreements you make to bump into certain people, face specific challenges, or dive into deep, life-changing love. I recently covered the idea of soul contracts in an episode which you’ll find in the show notes.

Ever meet someone and feel like you’ve known them forever? Could be someone from your soul group, showing up again to play a different role in your growth.

Sometimes your soul even splinters a bit. Trauma can cause soul fragmentation, making you feel like something’s missing. Ever say, “I just don’t feel like myself”? That could be a soul piece gone off on it’s own.

The good news is you can call it back. This is the kind of thing addressed by shamanic healing in a soul retrieval session. The practitioner goes looking for those lost bits and brings them back to you.

There are other types of energy healing, as well as meditations, and even journaling which can help you reconnect and reclaim your parts to achieve wholeness.

One book I loved about the soul and life between life is Journey of Souls by Michael Newton.

The Higher Self: Your Cosmic North StarYour higher self is an entirely different level of who you are. It’s not about your past lives because using the theory of time, it’s all happening at the same time. And this is not about your emotional baggage. The higher self is far above the petty details of every day life.

Your higher self sees the truth and your greatest potential. The timeline that leads you to the most growth, joy, and alignment—even if it’s not the easiest one.

This is where your soul is the student and your higher self is the teacher. Wise. Unshakable. Connected directly to Source.

Your higher self holds the blueprint for this lifetime including your purpose, your lessons, your gifts, and quietly drops breadcrumbs to help you stay on track.

Try this Exercise:
Take 5 quiet minutes to ask yourself: What would my higher self say about this situation? Then relax, breathe deeply and listen. Write down whatever comes. Don’t filter it or edit or doubt it. Just let it flow. The more you do this, the clearer this voice becomes.

How to Tell Who’s TalkingHere’s where things get exciting and juicy. When you’re facing a big decision, how do you know whether it’s your soul or your higher-self weighing in and giving advice?

The soul’s voice feels emotional. It’s rooted in your personal story, your longings, your wounds. It might say, “I’ve been here before. This hurts. Be careful.”

The higher self’s voice is calm, clear and direct. It doesn’t waver or explain. It might say, “You know what to do. Trust it.” That’s the difference between your soul vs. higher self.

Try this Exercise:
Think of something you’re struggling with right now. Take a moment to ask yourself, “What does my soul say about this?” Write that down. Then ask, “What does my higher self say about this situation? Write that down too.

Next, compare the answers. The shift in tone alone might surprise you. The information, point of view and advice is likely to be different.

The Soul’s Playground – Emotion, Creativity, HealingIf your soul had a love language, it would be emotion. That’s where it does its deepest learning. Healing emotional wounds through therapy, shadow work, or inner child healing is soul work. Every time you face a fear, rewrite a story, or feel something fully—that’s your soul leveling up.

When you use your creativity? That’s total soul expression. Have you even cried while writing a poem? Lost yourself while painting?

That’s you connecting with your soul. Feel something sacred move through you when you dance? Your soul is stretching or releasing blocked energy through movement.

Try this Exercise:
Do one creative thing today—without judgment. Just for you. See what stirs. See what you create.

Higher Self’s Playground: Intuition, Synchronicity, StillnessYour higher self speaks through subtle signs. Butterflies in your gut. That song lyric that answers your question. That dream you can’t stop wondering what it means.

To hear the higher self, you’ve got to quiet the static and mind clutter. This is what meditation is for. But you can also walk in nature or journal. These activities help you tune into the higher frequency.

Here’s the amazing part. Your higher self often guides you to find what brings you joy. Yes, fun is sacred. Pleasure can be part of the experience and guidance. Another way to know the difference between your soul vs. higher self.

How Does This Help in Real Life?Let’s say you’re stuck in a relationship pattern. Again. Your soul might say: You’re repeating an old lesson. Let’s figure out what the wound is here.

Your higher self might say: This dynamic doesn’t align with your highest path. Time to reconsider and decide if this relationship is for your highest good.

Both have value. One offers healing. The other offers direction. You get to work with both aspects.

Practices to ConnectTo work with your soul:

  • Journal about emotional patterns and past experiences
  • Do shadow work
  • Dive into creative expression
  • Explore past-life themes if you’re open to that

To connect with your higher self:

  • Meditate
  • Ask questions and free-write answers
  • Practice surrender. Trust divine timing
  • Follow what excites and expands you

Try one today. See how it shifts your energy.

Soul Vs. Higher Self – You Are the BridgeHere’s the big takeaway between the soul vs. higher self. Your soul is the evolving storyteller of your existence.

On the other hand, your higher self is the steady lighthouse guiding you home.
And you, in this beautiful, messy, miraculous human form, are the bridge between them.

You get to tap into both. You get to feel and know. You get to heal and lead.

Tonight, before bed, try this:
Ask yourself, “What did my soul experience today? What did my higher self want me to see?”

Let the answers rise and come into your awareness. You might be surprised by the wisdom already within you. You’ve got the car and the GPS. The journey is all yours!

Ready to manifest big things or small? These seven manifesting hacks are all you need to attract what you want and live the life you dream of. Manifesting isn’t just vision boards and crystals. It’s about aligning your energy with what you want and allowing the Universe to meet you halfway or better yet, take the lead.

If you’ve ever found yourself obsessing over something you deeply desire, spinning in circles, checking all the boxes, trying to “do it right,” you’re not alone. It’s human nature to want control. But manifestation happens when you learn how to partner with something bigger, something unseen.

My Manifesting SuccessOver the years I have manifested many things. The biggest was finding the right man to marry. It was a lot of work but I lucked out big time with my husband.

Methods I’ve used have been all over the place. With dating, I wrote my affirmations into songs or chants and sang them non-stop, mostly because they made me happy. Plus, this worked for me! So, I thought it was time to talk about manifesting again and to offer seven methods that are simple to use.

Align Your EnergyI have curated seven manifesting hacks. These techniques aren’t about trying harder but shifting your mindset, activating your imagination, and tuning in to the emotions that attract what you want like a magnet.

The methods are rooted in spiritual principles and personal experiences. Some are inspired by brilliant metaphysical minds like Neville Goddard. Others come from modern teachers and practical spiritual wisdom passed down over the years.

Before you dive in, here’s the Golden Rule – Be clear and specific about what you want. Don’t worry about how it will arrive, but what you want to receive, experience, and FEEL. That feeling is your frequency.

How to ask the Universe for a gift.

As Neale Donald Walsch, the author of the Conversations with God book series says, “Emotion is energy in motion.” That’s what pulls the dream into reality.

7 Juicy Manifesting Hacks1. The Water Glass MethodThis is a simple ritual, and it’s surprisingly powerful. You’ll need two glasses and some water.

First, take one glass and label it with your current situation. Maybe it says something like “I’m stuck in a job I hate” or “I feel lonely.” Then take the second glass and label it with what you want instead. This might be “I love my fulfilling, flexible job” or “I’m surrounded by warm, loving friendships.”

Now, slowly pour the water from the first glass into the second and focus on the emotional shift. Imagine the change already happening. Feel the new energy and infuse that into the water. Then, drink the water from the second glass. This symbolic act allows you to internalize the energy of your new reality.

You can repeat this daily or as often as you feel inspired to. It works because it combines intention, imagination, emotion, and action which are the four pillars of manifestation.

  1. Letter from Your Future SelfThis method was popularized by Neville Goddard, a mystic and teacher known for his belief that imagination is the creative power of the universe.

To do this, write yourself a letter from a future version of you, one year or more ahead, where everything you desire has already come to life. In this letter, describe what your life looks like now that your dreams have come true. What’s different? How do you feel? Be as specific as you can.

Write about your career, relationships, finances, health, or creativity – whatever is most important to you. Reflect on what you’ve achieved and how your journey unfolded. This helps trick your subconscious into accepting this future as reality.

Once the letter is finished, seal it in an envelope. Set a reminder to read it again in a few months, or even a year. Don’t obsess over it. Just let it go and discover what shifts.

  1. The Congratulations SceneThis one taps into social energy. You imagine your friends and loved ones congratulating you on your success.

Picture a few key people in your life who would be genuinely happy for you. See them smiling, hugging you, raising a glass. Hear them say things like, “I’m so proud of you,” or “You did it, I knew you would.”

Create a vivid mental scene where this is happening. Make it as real as possible. Imagine what you’re wearing, where you are, what’s being said. Smile as you imagine it. This is a fun and effective because it blends imagination with social proof. It makes the success feel public, witnessed, and celebrated. That kind of energy is magnetic.

Manifesting not working? Try this!

  1. The 3-6-9 Manifesting MethodThis manifesting hack was inspired by Nikola Tesla’s fascination with the numbers 3, 6, and 9. Then Karin Yee, a modern manifesting teacher and gratitude expert, combine the numbers with what she learned from manifesting expert Abraham-Hicks. It’s based on repetition, numerology, and focused affirmations.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Get very clear on your desire. Choose a specific intention or goal. This could be something like attracting a new opportunity, healing a relationship, or receiving a financial breakthrough.

Step 2: Create an affirmation that reflects this desire as already true. Start with “I am” or “I’m so grateful that…”

Examples might be: “I am so excited I bought the exact car I wanted” or “I’m thrilled to be living in my beautiful new home,” or “I feel so lucky that my ideal clients come to me with ease.”

Step 3 Write this affirmation three times in the morning, six times in the afternoon, and nine times before bed.

Repeat this every day for at least 21 days, or up to 45 days. You’re embedding the affirmation deep into your subconscious, and the repetition at those specific times helps align your energy throughout the day.

Tesla felt these numbers were the keys to the Universe. You can do this in a dedicated notebook, or on slips of paper you collect in a jar. So many experts wear by this method.

  1. Contract with the UniverseThis one’s for when you’ve done everything you can—and now it’s time to let go.

Start by getting crystal clear about what you want to hand over to the Universe. What are you ready to stop trying to control? What outcome do you want to invite? Most importantly, how do you want to feel when it’s all resolved?

Once you know, write a simple contract. You can do this on paper, in your journal, or even type it into a document. Here’s an example you can customize:

“I, [Your Name], enter into a sacred contract with the Universe on this day, [Date]. Today, I hereby delegate the following situation to Universal Intelligence: [Briefly describe what you’re letting go of or asking support for.]

I trust the process and the timing. Everything is unfolding for my highest good. My role is to stay aligned, open, and willing to take inspired action when guided. I will not micromanage or interfere. I release this with love and faith.

Signed, [Your Signature]”

You can also add a timeframe or deadline this way, “I invite clarity or resolution by [insert date], if it aligns with my highest good.”

Next, seal the contract energetically. You might light a candle. Read the contract aloud. Place it on your altar, tuck it into a book, stick it in a file, or burn it as a release. Whatever feels right. Then let it go.

That’s the hardest part, but also the most magical. Your job is to stop checking on it. Stop worrying. Just stay in the vibration of trust.

More Hacks in the PodcastThere are two additional Neville Goddard manifesting hacks in the podcast, but you’ll need to listen to find out what they are.

Now, it’s your turn. Which one of these methods are you going to try first? Have fun and happy manifesting.

This is an encore presentation of the podcast’s second most popular episode! If you’ve ever wondered about faerie magic and if it’s possible that faeries are real, listen to this week’s show.

Can you get to know and communciate with them? Are they helfpul or scary? You are about to find out!

In this other-worldly and magical episode, my guest and I talk about faerie sightings and portals, communicating with faeries, faerie lore from Ireland and the difference between US Fae and those living Ireland.

You’re about to hear a bunch of Real Life stories and experiences that my guest Barbara Gallagher and I shared. Barb has had some pretty amazing experiences with the faeries here in the USA.

She was actually warned not to connect with faeries on her tip to Ireland. People said since there is a lot of let’s say bad blood between humans and the fae there. Lots of history where there was a war and the faeries, who lost and moved underground. In fact, another word for the faeries is Sidhe, which means mound. Isn’t that interesting?

Eventhough we aren’t going to get into any actual faerie magic, these stories are quite magical. To see the original post you can visit this page.

Barb told the story of how she opened a faerie portal in the woods and then saw it was still active a full year later. She also shared a healing experience where a fairie worked on her back that was completely fascinating.

As an herablist, Barb makes flower essences and herbal tinctures and explained how she is often guided by the plant spirits themselves. She’s a natural at speaking with the spirit world and the Fae.

Barb is also very encouraging that anyone can do this by holding a clear intention and having an open heart.

I asked what she gets out of this relationship and Barb explained how it fills up her heart with love and graititude. I thought maybe there was an experience of oneness as well and she agreed.

We talked about dryads – tree spirits, undines – water spirits, sylphs – air spirits and others. She’s even seem those sepia-colored spirits that artist and author Brian Froud depicts in his books.

I shared how I had read so many books about the Findhorn Garden in Scotland, famous for growing 40 cabbages in the 1970s and more on the difficult Scottish coastline by working with the nature spirits, plant devas, and elementals.

There are so many great books on the nature spirits. Tannis Halliwell has written many including My Summer with the Leprechauns -a favorite! Another classic is The Elves of Lilly Hill Farm by Penny Kelly.

At the end, Barb talks about how to talk with the Fae and other nature spirits and we wrap up one amazingly magical episode. I hope it inspires you to connect, enjoy faerie magic, and have some of your very own stories to tell.

Are you curious about how to connect with your ancestors spiritually for help, healing and more? In this episode, I explain easy ways to communicate with departed family and handle the ones who haven’t yet healed.

Connect with Your AncestorsAll over the world, people work with their ancestors to create a sacred connection. There are many reasons to reach out across the veil and speak to your kinfolk.

It doesn’t have to be complicated, spooky, or overly ceremonial. This is not Hollywood, right? At it’s heart, ancestor work is a beautiful spiritual practice that honors where you come from and invites supportive ancestral energy into your life.

In this post, you’ll discover why you might want to connect with your ancestors, how to begin, what to offer, and what to do when the ancestors who show up aren’t exactly wise, loving, or… helpful. (Yes, it happens.)

I’m not going deep into ancestral healing in this episode. But it’s good to know when you heal yourself of anything passed down through your family, you often heal the family line as well, back to the root of the problem.

Why Work With Ancestors?People come to ancestral work for all kinds of reasons. Curiosity. Grief. Nostalgia. A desire to connect more deeply with your roots. Working with your ancestors offers guidance, healing, and a profound sense of belonging.

5 Reasons to Build a Relationship with Your AncestorsSupport and guidance: They’ve lived through hard times too. Their wisdom is embedded in your DNA.
A sense of rootedness: Feeling disconnected from the world? Your lineage can ground you.
Spiritual clarity: This practice helps you tune in to something deeper than daily noise.
Reciprocity: Honoring those who came before you expands your spiritual life in surprising ways.
Energetic healing: When trauma or patterns are inherited, ancestral work can help you clear them for yourself and future generations.

You don’t need to have had a great relationship with your family—or even know their stories. This is about connecting with the wise, healed ancestors who may have experience with what is challenging you today. They can offer assistance.

These are all wonderful reasons to learn how to connect with your ancetsors spiritually.

How to Set Up an Ancestor AltarCreating an altar is a beautiful, simple way to invite connection. You’re making a space that says, “You are welcome here.”

You’ll need:

  • A small, clean surface
  • A cloth to define the space
  • Photos or names of ancestors
  • A candle
  • A glass of water (a spiritual conduit)
  • Any personal or symbolic items that feel meaningful

You don’t need to overthink it. Just let the space feel like a warm invitation. And remember to state clearly that you are calling on your “loving, whole, and healed ancestors.” This filters out the ones who aren’t quite there yet (more on that later).

What Offerings to MakeOfferings are a way to honor and build relationships. These gifts create energetic reciprocity. You’re giving thanks, showing respect, and strengthening the bond, making it easier to connect with your ancestors spiritually.

Simple offerings might include:

  • Fresh water
  • Coffee, tea, or a favorite drink
  • Bread, fruit, or sweets
  • Flowers or herbs
  • Incense or perfume they used to wear

When to Make Offerings* On birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays * During full or new moons, solstices or equinoxes * Anytime you need guidance or feel grateful

You can refresh offerings weekly or monthly, or when you want to connect – it’s totally up to you.

A Simple Ritual to ConnectHere’s one more important thing to know about how to connect with your ancestors spiritually – it can be easy! Here’s a short, yet powerful 5-step ritual you can do anytime:

Prepare – Clear your energy, straighten up the altar, light a candle, and place your offering.
Invite – Say something like: “I call on my loving, whole, and healed ancestors who have the desire and ability to help me. I remember and honor you.”
Speak – Share what’s in your heart and on your mind. Thank them. Ask for guidance or just be present.
Listen – Be open to receiving messages through thoughts, emotions, symbols, or dreams.
Close – Thank them again. Blow out the candle. Return offerings to nature.

If you enjoy journaling, try automatic writing. Ask for a message, then write whatever comes without editing. You might be surprised by the wisdom that flows. And sometimes ancestral healing may crop up in the writing.

Here’s another episode about working with your ancestors.

What You Can Work On TogetherAncestor work isn’t just about healing the past, but can also build an ongoing connection. You can:

  • Ask for clarity around life decisions
  • Request help with relationships (including family)
  • Seek encouragement and protection
  • Discover hidden talents or spiritual gifts
  • Explore lineage stories or karmic themes

Some believe that helping us is part of our ancestors’ soul evolution. They want to support us. And the more you connect, the more the relationship grows.

When Ancestors Get SnarkyOkay, let’s talk about the awkward part. Sometimes the ancestors who show up are not exactly warm or wise. Some might show up cranky, judgmental, or even downright snarky. Just because someone has crossed over doesn’t mean they’ve evolved or are any wiser.

Years ago, I did a poorly worded invocation during a magic ritual. I asked for the “highest available ancestors,” thinking that meant spiritually evolved.

What I got instead was a group of spiritually bossy types who were available. They proceeded to scold me like disapproving Victorian aunts. So rude! The lesson I learned was to be specific and only call on ancestors who are loving, whole, and healed.

This is why you want to learn how to connect with your ancestors spiritually the proper way. I haven’t worked on ancestral healing with these difficult spirits but it’s probably a good idea.

Another Snarky Ancestor StoryThen recently, I had a reading from someone I hadn’t worked with before. As she began channeling, the messages were laced with digs—like “You’re too independent” and “too practical.”

I asked her to shift the energy upward and reach above those spirits. We did get a few helpful nuggets, but most of it remained tangled in the snark-zone. Even the reader admitted it was the snarkiest reading she’d ever done. I believe it.

So, keep this in mind whether you doing ancestral healing or just calling on your ancestors for support or comfort. You get to decide who you talk to.

Just because someone is on the other side doesn’t mean they’re spiritually evolved—or helpful. There’s no need to tolerate unkind or critical energy from the spirit world (or this world either).

How to Set Boundaries With SpiritsThink of communicating with spirits like any relationship. As you discover how to connect with your ancestors spiritually, if someone shows up acting shady, now you know you don’t have to work with them.

  • Be specific when inviting: “Only loving, whole, and healed ancestors.”
  • Set firm boundaries: “If you are not of 100% light, please leave now.”
  • Trust your intuition—if something feels off, it probably is.
  • Feel free to say “No” and send pesky ancestors packing.
  • Ask questions: “Who are you? From which line? How far back do you go?”

You wouldn’t let just anyone in your house. Same goes for your entering energy field!

To work with your ancestors, you don’t need to know your full family tree, have formal training, or attend any special workshops. It’s about respect, intuition, and relationships.

Whether you light a candle, whisper a name, or leave out a cup of tea, you’re opening a line of communication. You are the living legacy of countless lives. They walk with you. But you get to decide who walks beside you.

And if a spirit shows up acting shady? Firmly ask them to leave. You might do a bit of ancestral healing to separate and clear things up with any difficult spirits.

Remember it’s your altar, your energy, your rules. And your whole and healed ancestors surely will visit to cheer you on!

Go ahead – light a candle, offer a cookie, and say hello. That’s how to connect with your ancestors spiritually. Someone loving is likely waiting to hear from you.

Do you consider yourself to be a human being vs. a human doing? Let’s be honest—most people are pros at “doing.”

Is There More?You make lists and tick the boxes. You read the books, meditate, maybe perform rituals, and strive to “stay aligned.” But somewhere in the back of your mind or buried beneath the pile of laundry and oracle decks, you know there’s more.

Something quieter. Something deeper. What is that something? Its being.

Human Being Vs. Human DoingAccording to spiritual experts and those who have left organized religion behind, “doing” and “being” often show up as polar opposites. Society drives “doing” in terms of success. Being fit and healthy, having a nice home, a great job, and keeping your kids active – that’s all doing.

As a result, doing takes priority, squeezing out your chance of being. Personally, I am driven to be productive. This was instilled by my father who thought I should be doing something. Take steps. Create something. Don’t just laze around and certainly no sleeping late!

So for me, doing became the way. The way to make something of myself. The way to get attention and praise. Now, if a weekend goes by and I don’t do anything, I feel unsatisfied and sad that the time went by and I have nothing to show for it.

Times Are ChangingHowever, times are changing for me. It seems I’m coming to a great shift in my life, from a life of doing to place of being. This is what my guides are asking of me. They say it’s time. More than time.

At first, I felt really sad about this. It’s hard to understand. What does it mean if I don’t do anything? What will I say when people ask me, “What have you been doing?”

Well, I’m still producing my podcast. Check. It’s the time of year for gardening. Check. I’m trying some new recipes for salads and summer meals. Check. Maybe I’ll paint again like last summer.

Being Is UnfamiliarBut it feels funny, off, and unfamiliar. As a human being vs. human doing, I will no longer be marketing my business. If people request readings or bioenergetic clearings, I’ll be happy to do them. But the days of marketing myself have come to a close after a long, long time.

Initially, I felt a loss. I felt sad and wondered how I’ll get through what spirit is asking of me. Then I got an incredible message from my guides with a completely different perspective after I’d been stewing for several days.

Message from My GuidesHere’s what my guides said:

“This is a time to celebrate! You are off the wheel of business building and marketing. You are now free! Free to explore and discover new levels of consciousness. To indulge in new experiences. It is an exciting time filled with surprises and big magic. Get excited and celebrate your transition and transformation.”

I did a little research to learn more about what it means to just “Be.” Turns out that doing and being are not necessarily opposites. They’re more like dance partners -one steps back and the other comes forward.

Each has it’s own rhythm, and when I learn how to move between them both, spiritual growth will start to feel less like a something I’ve got to do or get done and more like a natural unfolding.

So, let’s get down to it. What exactly is the difference between a human being and human doing?

The Active Path of DoingDoing refers to everything you do in life and even in the name of spiritual development like meditation, yoga, breathwork, journaling, energy healing.

Even acts of kindness or creative expression count. These are the intentional actions you take to feel more connected, centered, and clear.

Doing comes with tools and structure. It provides a sense of momentum. And let’s be honest—it also gives me something to measure. When life feels chaotic, doing something can feel like a lifeline. It’s a way to feel like you’re in control of your growth.

There’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, doing plays an essential role in spiritual development, especially when you’re just starting to unravel old scripts and limiting beliefs.

Benefits of Doing1. Cultivates Mindfulness. Practices like mindfulness or meditation train the mind to return to the present moment, which is one of the most powerful spiritual muscles you can build.

2. Creates Space for Reflection. Journaling, for example, helps you process emotions, integrate insights, and track growth over time.

3. Fosters Discipline and Transformation. Doing something consistently, even small things, rewires your nervous systems. The repetition of practice creates new patterns.

4. Connects You with Others. Group rituals, classes, retreats, and even shared silence deepen your sense of belonging and community.

5. Supports Emotional/Mental Health. From decreasing anxiety to increasing a sense of purpose, doing has measurable benefits for the brain and body.

6. Opens the Door to Being. Often, it’s through consistent doing that you unexpectedly find yourself in a state of stillness, presence, or awe. It provides structure for this transformation.

Being Present“Being” is what happens when you stop trying to get somewhere. It’s the moment after you exhale and the silence between thoughts. The inner stillness that doesn’t need fixing, upgrading, analyzing, or optimizing.

Being isn’t something you “achieve” which is exactly what makes it so tricky for someone like me who was raised and rewarded for getting stuff done. Being is not about effort or self-improvement. Instead it’s about allowing and remembering.

Spiritually speaking, being is about being present. It’s the sense of feeling connection with the here and now, including the messy emotions, awkward pauses, quiet joy, and unfiltered truth. You were created as a human being vs. human doing.

Benefits of BeingThe benefits of being are subtler and often profound.

1. Inner Peace and Calm. Neuroscience backs this up. When you rest in the present moment, your parasympathetic nervous system kicks in, reducing cortisol and increasing serotonin. In plain terms you start to relax and feel safe.

2. Authentic Self-Connection. Being helps you reconnect with what’s real inside you. Not the version of yourself you are curating, but the person who’s been waiting underneath.

3. Grounding and Clarity. When you’re not spinning in thought, chasing the next insight, or trying to understand, clarity arises naturally as wisdom.

4. Healing and Emotional Resilience. Being with yourself in a non-judgmental way, especially if you’re uncomfortable, supports emotional release and a deeper self-acceptance.

5. Connection to Oneness. Many describe the state of being as a portal into something larger, whether it’s nature, life energy, or a feeling a sense of unity with all things. Knowing you are a part of everything in the Universe.

6. Compassion, Joy, and Love. These emotional states are not goals. They’re natural byproducts of being present. When you stop trying to be loving and just rest in being, love shows up on its own. Love for yourself, for others and the world.

Is Being Better Than Doing?Back to the question of human being vs. human doing. Is one better? Nope. That’s not the point. In fact, trying to “be” instead of “do” is just more doing in disguise!

You don’t have to choose one over the other, but learn to recognize when each mode is helpful. Think of it like breathing. Doing is the inhale, being is the exhale. You need both to live.

This is what I am in the midst of. Shifting from a human doing to more of a human being. To stop worrying about launching the next class or my social media and just enjoy the day. I’ve been told this shift is a sign of remarkable transformation and comes from years of striving and spiritual development.

Magic Will Rise!Being is not “doing nothing”. It is embodying a deep spiritual lesson that has the power to heal. And as I learn to just be (as well as people too), the magic will rise and grow. Good magic, like:

  • Magic that brings happiness and peace.
  • Magic of working together to solve problems.
  • Magic that brings laughter and fun, possibilities and optimism.
  • Magic where things come together easily.
  • Magic that offers joy every day and a deep appreciation for all the good that already exists as things are.

It’s time to trust that my gifts will find a way into the world more organically. My journey is not ending but it’s very nature is changing.

I am worthy not because of what I produce or get done, but by simply being and that is enough. And the same is true for you my friend! This is your invitation to join me if you dare…which one will you be? Human being vs. human doing – the chice is up to you.

Today, let’s dive into how your imagination works to spark your intuitive development. I’ll show you how they’re similar, different, and most importantly, linked in a primordial way.

When you nurture your imagination, you’re actually building your intuitive power!

(Looking for the link to shaman drumming? Scroll to the very bottom.)

Am I Just Making This Up?Let’s start with a common question I hear from clients all the time, “What if I’m making it up?” I’ve been there. Early on, I asked myself that constantly. Now, I rarely do. In fact, I often laugh and say, “I could never have made that up!”

But when you’re new to working with your intuition, that confusion is natural and it’s not a bad thing. Why? Because building your imagination is actually one of the most powerful ways to strengthen your psychic abilities.

Wild Visions!I’ve had wild intuitive experiences. Things I absolutely know I didn’t “make up.” One of my favorites happened while walking in the woods with my husband. I saw a good-sized rock and felt an intuitive nudge to sit and meditate. So, I asked my husband Paul to give me just five minutes and he agreed.

I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths. Within moments, I felt myself fall through the rock into an underground cave system. But this wasn’t just any cave. It looked like an office, complete with cubicles, furniture, and a human-sized mole in business attire.

Yes. A mole. Wearing a slightly rumpled white shirt with rolled-up sleeves, wire-rimmed glasses, and a loosened tie. He was calmly reading a newspaper. I was stunned.

Before I could speak, Mr. Mole began listing which food supplements Paul and I needed. Then he returned to his paper. A minute later, I was back in my body, sitting on the rock like nothing had happened.

Now tell me, who makes up a mole nutritionist in a office cave? I know I didn’t consciously create that LOL! And here’s the key – after that mole visit that I started intentionally using my imagination for intuitive exploration.

Mermaid VisualizationFor example, at the ocean I decided to pretend to be a mermaid. I imagined swimming deep beneath the surface, searching for hidden caves and lost cities like Atlantis. It was delightful and super fun. Perfect for intuitive development.

Here’s another exercise I recommend to flex your imagination. Close your eyes and visualize a closed door in front of you. Now ask yourself what’s behind it? What do you sense on the other side? Do you hear anything? Pick three things that might be there.

Then open the door. What do you see? This kind of creative play isn’t just fantasy but great intuitive training!

Imagination Opens Your IntuitionMany experts say that intuition and imagination are two sides of the same coin. Here’s how these two powers work together:

Imagination opens the door. It creates a mental movie studio where you can explore images, stories, and what-ifs. It’s unconstrained by reality and rich with possibility.

Intuition leads you to the right door. It’s your gut instinct, your sudden knowing, or your inner yes. It doesn’t have a storyline.

Your imagination constructs new options, then your intuition helps you choose. Together, they’re magic. Your imagination sets the stage, while your intuition chooses the scene that’s most true for you.

Intuitive Development with ImaginationLet’s get practical. Here are ways to build stronger intuitive knowing.

1. Flex Your Creative Muscles – Draw, doodle, paint, or tell a spontaneous story. Use tarot cards as prompts and make up tales based on what you pull. This stimulates your right brain and bypasses the logical mind – great for intuitive development.

You can also imagine different outcomes to a situation you’re facing. Try visualizing both best-case and worst-case scenarios. Then ask yourself which version feels best or more aligned? This strengthens your intuitive development.

2. Mental Play and Visualization – Imagine your intuition is speaking to you. What does it say? Does it show up as a voice, a feeling, an image or symbol? Maybe you sense or feel something. These are the clairs.

I once drew an open treasure chest with eight beams of light curling out of it. Months later during a meditation, I saw myself bound by eight chains which melted into a key. A treasure chest appeared and I opened with that key.

Guess what came out – the same eight light beams, just like my drawing. My art journaling turned out to be an artistic prophecy of sorts!

3. Journaling and Dream Work – Write down intuitive hits, dreams, and weird little nudges. Over time, patterns emerge, and your confidence grows. That’s how you move from “Was that real?” to “Oh yeah, that was spot on.” Journaling is wonderful for intuitive development.

Start tracking your dreams. They’re direct messages from your subconscious, wrapped in symbolism. I recommend The Dream Book by Betty Bethards—it’s my go-to dream resource.

4. Quiet the Noise – Stillness is magic. Go for a walk without your phone. Sit in nature. Meditate. That open space invites intuitive whispers.

The less your brain is busy with distractions, the more room there is for imagination and intuition to dance.

5. Follow Nudges – Try a new route. Say yes to something random. Let creativity lead without needing a reason. The more you follow intuitive whims, the stronger the signal gets.

How to Tell the DifferenceThat’s the big question, right? How do you know if it’s your imagination or intuition?

Here’s how to tell:

Imagination is playful and often elaborate. You can shape it at will. It may come with strong emotions, excitement, fear, and fantasy. On the other hand, intuition is calm, direct, and surprising. It pops in out of nowhere and usually feels neutral, even if the message is powerful.

Your body knows. Intuition often arrives with physical sensations—chills, a gut feel, a sense of “This is right.” Imagination stays mostly in the mind.

The first time I entered the Akashic Records, I felt it viscerally. I was with two friends, and as we tuned into energy, I was engulfed by chills around my head and through my body. That’s the kind of response imagination alone doesn’t generate.

There’s so much more in the podcast including my description of how to do a shaman journey – and you’ll find a link to a shaman drumming video at the bottom of this post. Have fun!

The story begins on St. Patrick’s Day, when I did a Celtic shamanic journey to connect with Merlin. Nearly three years ago, he first appeared in a meditation and told me I was embarking on a spritual adventure.

There’d be no map, no guide, and no goal. Just blind trust so I can learn to go with the flow. At the bottom of these show notes you can find links to other Spiritual Adventure Updates.

My Spiritual Adventure ContinuesLet me tell you, it’s hard! I like a little direction. I don’t need a detailed itinerary, but a basic idea of where I’m headed? That’d be nice. But Spirit had other plans. I was told – No plan. Just try things. Trust the unfolding.

So, I did. I hosted full moon events, started an intuitive mastermind—nothing quite stuck. Still, I love creating and I keep going.

Then I found Sharon McErlane’s books and the Net of Light. Sharon channels the Great Council of the Grandmothers, and something clicked. Their mission resonated deeply – to raise the yin energy globally and restore the balance of masculine and feminine on the planet.

I’m from the generation that followed Gloria Steinem and was part of the second wave of women who flooded the corporate world in the ’80s. So, the idea of empowering women is part of my history and DNA.

Shamanic Journey with MerlinOkay, back to Merlin. During the St. Patrick’s Day shamanic meditation, I stepped into a boat with no oars and let the current take me. Dolphins and small whales surfaced, nudging the boat forward which was fun!

When I landed, a great black hawk greeted me. It was massive and stood beside Merlin, wings flapping as if to get my attention.

Merlin had a message for me. He said I was doing well on my journey. He likened me to a meandering brook—not quite a river yet, still finding my way. He cautioned me not to push the river which means not to rush things.

“Let it come. You’ll become a river in time.” Classic Merlin, metaphorically fascinating and a bit vague.

Afterward, I looked up the meaning of this giant black hawk. The bird I saw is called a Great Black Hawk, symbolizing strength, transformation, divine connection, and higher perspective. It represents a call to trust my intuition and step into purpose.

Ancestors of the LandWeeks later, I heard a story on a podcast about a man from Germany who came to the US and wanted to buy land in Arizona. He couldn’t afford it, but went to meditate on the land.

The spirits of the land came to him, saying they wanted someone who would honor it like him. A series of miracles followed, and he purchased the land!

Hearing this gave me full-body chills. That story felt like a message about working with the ancestors of the land. Days later, while reading a book from the Grandmothers series, I learned to heal the Earth, you have to first connect with the ancestors of the land and your own ancestors too.

That message landed twice in one week. I’d never been interested in my ancestors. Beyond one grandmother, they had all passed before I was born. Now, I started to wonder if ancestral healing is part of my path? I decided to investigate further.

Shamanic Journey to the GrandmothersOn April 9th, I did another shamanic journey to meet the Grandmothers. I saw them dancing around a fire on the plains. I said hello, and after greeting me, they pushed me into the fire!

It didn’t hurt (I was safe in dreamtime), and I know fire is transformative and purifying. Then came a wild shift – I started to grow taller and taller, until I was the size of a redwood.

From that height, the fire looked tiny, the size of a penny. Interesting. Then, I shrank back to normal and came out of the journey.

What was that about? I sat with it. Growing tall gave me perspective, but maybe it also meant I was stepping into a more expanded, grounded version of myself. Like the redwood, vast and steady with deep roots.

Spiritual ContainerOn April 14th, I met the Grandmothers again—this time in a forest at night. They greeted me and began dancing around me. “Get to know us,” they said, “and we’ll get to know you.”

I started to grow again—not redwood-size, but big enough that the hem of my skirt filled the entire circle. I felt myself brushing against my own power—and stopped. I didn’t want to overwhelm or overstep.

Later, I realized the circle they created wasn’t a limitation. It was probably more like a container, holding me while I grew. Again that’s interesting.

By April 25, something was shifting. I felt electrically connected to nature. Alive. More powerful. And it hit me that I might not be just a meandering brook anymore, but perhaps advanced to the river.

So I asked the grandmothers in shamanic journey, “If I’m a river, who are you?” The Grandmothers answered, “We are the aquifer.”

Chills. The aquifer—silent, essential, underground. While I move along the surface, they are the deep, ancient source that sustains everything on earth. That made perfect sense.

Splashed with PaintThen came May 5th. In another shamanic meditation with the Grandmothers, I was pushed into their circle again, but this time, they splashed me with yellow ochre paint.

It was a sacred moment. Yellow is the color of the solar plexus representing confidence, identity, power. However, this ochre was ancient, primal, and earthy. It felt like an initiation.

I did a little research and found that being pulled into a circle like that is a spiritual activation. And the paint? Could be a sign of belonging. I was being welcomed in.

Maybe a Test?The last journey I’ll share happened just this week—May 12. And wow, was it a big one.

This time, the vision felt more involved. I saw the Council of Grandmothers standing on the Great Plains. They didn’t waste any time. As soon as I arrived, they asked me, “Why are you here?”

I took a breath and answered from the heart, “I’m here for myself… for other women… and for the world.” Good thing I said that—because I felt it was a test. And apparently, I passed.

They told me to open my heart and breathe through it. So, I did.

Then they showed me something extraordinary. They had woven a blanket for me—a stunning, sacred piece of art. Right in the center was a vibrant field of golden yellow. Framing it were bands of bright, vivid orange above and below. And then on each end was a bold stripe of deep purple.

Gift of the ThunderbirdThe centerpiece was a large, black thunderbird woven into the golden yellow section. It was stylized and angular, not realistic.

Naturally, I looked it up. The thunderbird is one of the most sacred beings in many Indigenous traditions. It’s a messenger of the Great Spirit and a sign of powerful protection and spiritual authority.

The thunderbird shows up when you are being entrusted with something big—sacred gifts or spiritual wisdom meant not for personal gain, but for the good of the people.

Suddenly, their earlier question, “Why are you here?”, made even more sense. What a gift from this shamanic journey!

Then I asked, “Is there anything else you want to tell me?” First, they threw more paint on me. This time, yellow ochre and turquoise. I love turquoise. (Thank you, Grandmothers.)

And this paint felt like a blessing. A finishing touch on a sacred rite. Turquoise relates to the throat chakra, authentic expression, truth-speaking. But it also symbolizes spiritual upgrade, elevated vision, and soul expression. In other words, all the good stuff.

Love Yourself, Love the WorldThen they told me, “Love yourself. To love yourself is to love the world.”

They said that by focusing on self-love, I would heal not just myself, but my family, my friends, my community, my country, and beyond.

“Allow this love to ripple out around you,” they said.

And I got the sense this was energetic truth. That kind of self-love is not selfish—it’s exponential healing. Imagine if everyone began to love themselves like that. What kind of world could we create? Now I’m not getting grandiose about this. I don’t think I’m better than anyone else. I’m just a woman walking her path, like everyone else.

Yes, this sounds kind of amazing and as shamanic journeys go, I’m pretty happy with them. But I still don’t know what it really means. What’s expected of me? What’s coming next? I have no idea. What will this look like in my practical, daily life? Still no clue.

What’s Next?Am I still on a spiritual journey to nowhere? Yep, but what a ride it’s become.

And if nothing else, I can promise this – I’ll keep showing up. I’ll keep listening. And, I’ll keep sharing what unfolds.

Even though I’m still on this journey to nowhere without a map, now I’m flowing like a river, moving with divine feminine power. The Grandmothers are guiding and I’m paying attention.

If you’d like to meditate with the Grandmothers, email me at Ronnie[@]IntuitiveEdge.biz and let me know. Or scroll to the very bottom of my website’s home page to sign up for the newsletter. I’m going to offer a Grandmothers’ event soon and if I have your email, I can send you the date and details.

Ever wonder if you could be an evidential psychic medium? Can you learn how to do that or does it just come naturally? Find out in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast

Rewire vs. RetireMy guest, Dr. Elizabeth Fried, spent over 40 successful years as a management consultant, bestselling author, and award-winning executive coach. Then she hit her 70s, looked around, and said, “Time to rewire.” (Not retire — rewire. This fabulous woman does not slow down.)

Her new life features modeling and mediumship. Yeah. That’s right. She connects with the dead and she’s on camera showing up proudly with her flowing silver locks and beautiful cheekbones.

How She Made the ShiftWhen I asked how this shift happened, Elizabeth said, “I wanted to do something that tapped both my creative and metaphysical sides.” She investigated, took classes, and put herself out there to create a whole new life.

But this wasn’t some woo-woo whim. She had experiences for decades — starting with a jarring out-of-body moment in her twenties that she did seek information about but didn’t start anything spriitual.

Later, she had full-on download of unconditional love during a business call. The room glowed gold and she felt a presence so vivid she assumed her husband had walked in. Someone had squeezed her shoulder but when she turned to look, no one was there.

Evidential Psychic MediumElizabeth trained to be an evidential psychic medium like it was a second MBA. Took course after course. She loved working with Suzanne Giesemann, a former Naval commander-turned-medium, who brings the same no-nonsense left-brain structure to her work that Elizabeth does.

She studied, meditated, practiced, and practiced some more. And that led her to a platform called VerySoul.com. It’s free for practicing mediums and offers readings to people who can’t afford them. It’s also a place to sharpen your skills with other mediums — and get honest feedback.

Although she was already a professional, she wanted more practice, so went through their program too. The most outstanding part of this story is that every cent she earns today from mediumship goes to The Honor Foundation, where Elizabeth also coaches special ops veterans pro bono. How cool is that?

Surprising ReactionI asked Elizabeth what kind of reaction she got from former colleagues. She posted an article on LinkedIn entitled, “Going Out on a Limb,” (like Shirley MacLaine) as she publicly announced her new role as a medium. Reactions were…mixed.

Some were encouraging while a few took a dim view. One email came from someone too cowardly to even use a real name. “ConcernedCoach@gmail.com” told her she was damaging the coaching profession by aligning herself with “oddball” things like acting and mediumship.

Elizabeth’s response? “Wow. You must think I must have a lot of power if one LinkedIn post can destroy the whole industry.” Great sense of humor.

Stories on MediumshipHere’s the truth — her work is powerful. And the stories she shared with me were heartwarming and stunning.

Like the time she connected with someone’s husband and saw an exact memory — the couple sitting by a fire in lawn chairs outside a camper. And yes, the client validated every single detail.

Or the woman who asked whether someone triggered her husband’s death. Elizabeth asked Spirit, got the answer, and added a little comic relief when the husband said, “My ticker just ran out of tocks.” Even in spirit, people have a sense of humor.

Vanilla Pudding & Orange Jell-OThen there’s the client whose mother passed. Elizabeth started the session by seeing a box of vanilla pudding and orange Jell-O. That turned into a creamsicle?

Stay with me — the client confirmed at the end of the reading while holding up those two boxes her mom gave her 5 years ago. She’d had them in the pantry ever since. And her mom had said, “Maybe you’ll figure out how to make a creamsicle.”

She Met A Movie Star in Spirit!Elizabeth even managed to connect with Chadwick Boseman for one of her clients. Yeah, the man who starred as the Black Panther Wakanda Forever – the movie. At first, she didn’t say anything because she was seeing a ripped Black man in tribal gear and didn’t want to come across as inappropriate.

Turns out, the client knew him. They’d even shared lunch in LA. Chad had once invited her to be in a film, which she had to decline. And he came through to remind her. Chills, right?

Deceased Pets SpeakShe’s also connected with pets — dogs, donkeys, even a long-deceased cat that was mad her name got reused for a dog. And yes, she got sassy from beyond the grave. Told her owner, “You have some nerve giving a dog my name.” Seriously? Yup!

Elizabeth doesn’t claim that this is easy work. She says being a medium takes time, real commitment, and an ongoing practice. She meditates a lot. But she’s all in — because her purpose is to be of service. And she’s doing that now more than ever.

So, if you’re wondering whether you could become an evidential psychic medium too, yes! Go take a class. You don’t have to be a natural – you just need a lot of practice.

And, if you’re looking for a reading, find her at www.elizabethfried.com/medium or on VerySoul.com.

Because age doesn’t matter. It’s about connection. Healing. Service. And the willingness to keep growing — even at 77.

Because some people retire. And others like the fabulous Elizabeth? They rewire.

Do you think of yourself as a kind person? Or maybe you’re nice? There’s a huge difference between nice vs. kind and that’s what I’m talking about in this week’s episode.

A Nice StoryLet me start with a story. Something happened recently that threw me off more than it should have. It wasn’t a huge deal, but it messed with my head—and honestly, it didn’t need to happen. The whole thing could’ve been avoided.

That’s what got me thinking about this topic – the essential difference between being nice vs. kind.

I couldn’t stop reflecting on what happened. I had some thoughts on what separates these two acts, but I did a little digging to get clearer. I discovered there’s even a spiritual angle to this. But first—the story.

I felt drawn to this nonprofit because I liked their mission and I figured I could help! I’ve got an MBA and decades of marketing experience. This seemed like a worthy cause.

So I started asking questions about their marketing plans. The first woman I spoke with said, “Oh, you should talk to Alice. She’s the one who working on that stuff.” I set up time to chat with her.

Confusion Sets InAlice was honest and said the group wasn’t into marketing. They wanted things to grow “organically” without any help. I figured, okay, maybe they’re not into it and I started let it go.

The next thing I know, the founder of the group reached out that same day and asked if I wanted to talk with her. Imagine that! Maybe there was still a chance?

When we spoke, I was surprised by her positivity. I shared four super simple, no-cost ideas—and she loved them. I wasn’t looking for payment, I just to offer my services.

She even commented, “Spirit must have sent you,” and asked if I had more ideas. I said yes, more will come but let’s start with these. The next step was telling the board at their next meeting – she would bring it up.

I was so excited. It felt like the stars had aligned! Maybe Alice had it wrong or there was a shift happening? After the board meeting, the founder said they loved my ideas. She told me to reconnect with Alice to get things started. I was thrilled.

A MisunderstandingThings changed during my follow-up with Alice. She mentioned a couple zoom groups and monthly trainings I could join. I was so confused and even a bit angry. What? Why weren’t we talking marketing?

Alice didn’t miss a beat. “This isn’t a business, and we’re not doing any marketing,” she said. Just like that. I wasn’t mad, just completely confused. Not the response I expected based on conversations with the founder. What happened?

I emailed the founder again. She said, “Let’s talk.” When we spoke, everything shifted. She said they move slowly, they want to get to know me better, maybe I should join some groups to see how I fit with them.

The Aha MomentAnd that’s when it hit me. The founder didn’t really love my ideas. She was just being NICE!

She could have said, “Thanks, but no thanks.” But maybe she didn’t want to offend me or she’s not good at saying “No”. Instead, she praised my ideas—but left out the truth.

Meanwhile, Alice had been clear from the start. And her voice went through my thoughts in that last conversation, having told me there was no way this was going to work.

Nice vs. KindNice and kind are NOT the same thing. People use them interchangeably, but these words come from totally different places and very different impacts.

You see, most people think they’re kind. Especially women—because we’re trained to be nice and polite. We’re told not to upset anyone and if you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all.

But when being “nice” means hiding the truth, being unable to establish boundaries, or pretending everything’s fine when it’s not—that’s not honest and it’s not healthy either.

Kindness includes honesty or you aren’t showing that you care. There’s no compassion in bing nice – its more self-serving so people like you.

5 Key Differences of Being Nice vs. Kind1. Motivation and Intention

When you’re being nice, you’re often trying to avoid conflict or get people to like you. It’s about keeping the peace. Kindness comes from be caring and having empathy. You’re doing something because you truly want to support or help—not because you want a gold star.

2. Depth and Authenticity
Niceness tends to be surface-level. It can sometimes even be a bit fake—like agreeing just to keep things smooth. Kindness goes deeper. It’s authentic. It usually requires more courage, especially when it involves being honest in an uncomfortable moment.

A Few ExamplesA) Spinach – Someone has spinach in their teeth. If you’re nice, you probably say nothing to save yourself adn themfrom embarrassment. But if you’re kind, you quietly say, “Just so you know, you’ve got spinach in your teeth.”

B) Trouble – A friend’s heading for trouble. If you’re nice you likely stay quiet, thinking it’s not your place t say anything. But if you’re kind, you speak up gently because you care what happens to the person.

C) Dating – I learned to let the men down kindly back when I was looking for love. Instead of ghosting, when a man asked if he could see me again, I was honest and would say, “I had a nice time but I don’t think we’re a match.”

Most men actually thanked me. It was awkward and scary first couple of times, but it got easier. Because honesty almost always wins.

3. Impact
Being nice might make things pleasant for the moment, but it often doesn’t go very far.
Kindness, on the other hand, can be transformative. It can really help someone grow, heal, or feel seen. And it doesn’t leave them hanging on.

4. Expectations
Nice people often expect something in return—a thank-you, approval, validation.
Kind people give from the heart. There’s no hidden agenda, no keeping score.

5. Assertiveness
Niceness avoids discomfort. It’s all about people-pleasing and keeping things harmonious.
But kindness? It’s honest—even when it’s hard. It respects your boundaries and theirs.

The Spiritual Aspect of KindnessBeing nice often comes from the ego. It’s about how you appear, whether people like you, and keeping peace at all costs. It’s fear-based: fear of rejection, fear of disappointing someone, or fear of being judged.

Being kind comes from the soul. It’s about presence, love, and integrity. It doesn’t always feel “nice” in the moment—but it’s honest, aligned, and compassionate.

Kindness might mean saying no. It might mean telling a hard truth. It might even ruffle some feathers. But it comes from the heart. And in the long run, it’s farmore meaningful.

In addition, when you have kindness as a goal, that promotes growth. You’ll likely find yourself in challenging situations so you learn about kindness. You’ll seek opportunities that require you to do something uncomfortable or inconvenient.

Too Busy to Be Kind?I was listening to an interview with Houston Kraft, author of a book titled Deep Kindness and he talked about a phrase he coined: “Intersectional thinking.” It helps you link kindness to your everyday life by being specific.

In addition to your “To-Do”list, you can also have a “To-Be” list. So you can set an intention for your day to be kind to one person. This is very doable, vs. an overall goal of being kinder which can be hard to implement. Keep it simple!

Also, when you say you’re too busy to be kind, what you’re really saying is—it’s not a priority. Yet, what you make time for is what you value. So, if kindness is important to you, make time for it.

Say “No” with KindnessIf you’re stuck in chronic niceness, it might be time to practice saying “No” with kindness. Here are several examples of kind ways to say “No” with honesty and integrity.

“I can’t join you because I have something else going on.”
“I wish I could, but my plate is full.”
“No thank you, but I appreciate the offer.”
“Unfortunately, I can’t this time—but maybe next time.”
“Thanks for thinking of me.”
“I don’t have the bandwidth right now.”

The Middle PathNo one loves being rejected and that’s why saying “No” feels hard. But you don’t have to choose between being a people pleaser or being harsh when you don’t agree. There’s a middle path—and it’s kindness.

If you need to practice to build this muscle, don’t start with the trickiest person in your life. Start small. Practice with someone safe. Discover what it feels like to hold your ground and keep your heart open.

Because when you do? You’ll stop being “so nice” all the time, feeling pressured and overwhelmed, and start being real. And that, my friend, serves everyone—especially you.

Are you a risk taker and trust in the Universe? Do you lean forward into something you’re dreaming about—a new path, a bold desire, a leap of faith—without knowing exactly how it’ll turn out?

Or maybe you’re risk averse, holding on tight to what you know. You’d rather stick with what’s familiar, even if it’s not your ideal, rather than roll the dice on something uncertain.

This conversation is about risk and trust. If you want to live life to the fullest, you need both. So let me take you back.

Garden Variety ChancesThirty years ago, I wrote an article that ended up being published in the Venture Inward magazine—yes, the Edgar Cayce Foundation’s magazine. It was my very first piece ever submitted, and it got accepted. That was an enormous thrill. The column was called “The Turning Point”, and believe me, it was.

That article, “Garden Variety Chances,” told a story I want to share again, because even now, decades later, the message still rings true.

At the time, I’d been working at a major packaged foods company in New York for seven years—and I hated it. I mean, I learned a lot, had good experiences, but the energy was just…heavy and often stressful for what seemed like no reason.

The Big LayoffEventually, a larger corporation bought us, and with all the merging, my position was eliminated. But there were jobs open to be considered. I applied half-heartedly, knowing I didn’t want any of them.

But then came the severance offer: seven months’ salary. To leave a job I despised? That was the universe handing me an exit ramp—and I took it. For this is one time I had trust in the Universe.

What did I do with my first unemployment check? I went to Hawaii. No regrets!

Anxiety MountedI didn’t want the same kind of job again, so I didn’t know what was next. But the path slowly revealed itself. A former colleague called and asked if I could help out at her agency. That was the beginning of my freelance career in copywriting and marketing consulting.

Sounds great, right? And it was—for a while. But about two years in, I hit a wall. My bank account was dwindling. I was filled with fear. I kept imagining the worst like losing my condo, my car, having to move back in with my parents at 30. That felt like the end of the world.

Even though I was in that anxious place, one day at the grocery store, I splurged. I bought a $3 sorrel plant. That’s it. Just a leafy, lemony green. I certainly didn’t need it. Money was tight. Yet, I bought it anyway.

I lived in a condo without any outdoor living space, so I couldn’t really plant it. I called my friend Carrie and told her about my “extravagance.” She was gardening and invited me to plant it in her yard. However, she also warned me about the neighborhood rabbits.

Inhaling & ExhalingHere was my dilemma—keep the plant safe on my windowsill, where it would survive but not thrive, or plant it outside, where it might flourish…or get eaten.

I actually meditated on this. Yes, over a $3 plant. But that’s how everything shifted.

In that quiet space, I received this guidance. To live life to the fullest, you must take risks. If you hold everything tightly to yourself—people, money, dreams—in fear of losing them, then you cut off the flow of life.

It’s like breathing. You can’t keep inhaling without exhaling. You must let go in order to receive more. You have to trust in the Universe.

That was the moment I laughed out loud. The ridiculousness of it all—a $3 plant had become a mirror for how tightly I was gripping life. I was paralyzed by fear, and this plant was showing me the way out.

So, I took the plant to Carrie’s garden. I trusted that it would flourish. And I trusted that I would, too. What happened after that? Everything changed.

Want to hear more about my spiritual journey?

Trust in the UniverseA freelance position came along that was just right. I was independent and financially stable. My bank account bounced back. And something else happened—I started dating again, after a five-year hiatus. Two relationships followed. Neither lasted, but I showed up. I tried. That was a win.

And the best part?

The following spring, Carrie called me. “The sorrel plant is growing again!” she said. Turns out, sorrel is a perennial. I didn’t know that at the time. But there it was, bursting through the soil again, thriving. That $3 risk had come full circle.

That plant was my proof. That risk can yield surprising and beautiful results. You just have to be willing to let go and trust.

I’m Still LearningNow, don’t get me wrong. I’m still learning this. Still living it. Today, my risks look different. I risk going slow instead of fast. I risk not pushing and having patience. I risk saying “No.”

But my essence hasn’t changed. I’m still like a river, flowing toward the ocean. Sometimes I hit rocks, take unexpected turns, but I keep moving.

I’m still learning not to fight the river. I don’t want to be the salmon swimming upstream—I want ease and grace. And to be in the flow, you have to trust. That’s the risk. I don’t always trust in the Universe, but I keep at it.

Sometimes, you only get to see the next step after you’ve taken the first one. There is no master plan. Life isn’t a straight line. It’s more like sailing—you tack left, then right. You adjust to the wind.

What’s Your First Step?So I ask you: what’s the first step you need to take? Not the third, or the fifth. Just the first.

What’s the $3 “sorrel plant” in your life? What are you holding onto so tightly that it’s keeping you from growing? If you need help with trusting the Universe, you might look for a sign- here’s how.

Sometimes, you have to speak the first word so the next one comes. You have to trust the siphon will flow. That’s what channeling has taught me, and that’s what life keeps showing me.

So today, I invite you to trust in the universe. Take the step. Let the flow find you. Because, my friend, you just might flourish.

Have you heard of the Council of the Grandmothers? If not, get ready because their message about raising yin energy of earth is pure magic! Exactly what this world needs right now is more divine feminine energy.

They’ve come to restore balance by bringing back and rebuilding the power of divine feminine energy. This is the soft, steady, deeply nurturing force that’s been quiet for too long. And when yin rises? Everything changes and improves!

Meet The Council of GrandmothersImagine this: You’re walking alone on a beach, minding your own business with your dog, when suddenly, a circle of radiant, wise women appear. They’re dressed in ceremonial clothes from all over the world. They look at you with love. And they say, Come here, let’s talk. We’ve come to help.

That’s exactly what happened to my guest, Sharon McErlane back in 1996. The Council of Grandmothers introduced themselves as divine guides with a mission to awaken yin energy and rebalance the earth. Because let’s face it, we’re ready for a positive change from patriarchy!

What They Came to TeachThis isn’t about power in the traditional sense. It’s not about control or dominance over others. It’s about growth, nourishment, support, and life itself.

For thousands of years, masculine (yang) energy has been running the show. It’s fast, fiery, action-oriented. But when it dominates, things become unbalanced and burn out.

That’s why the Grandmothers are focused on calling back yin energy and they say it begins with women. of course! We embody yin which is incredibly healing and joyful.

A Movement Spans the GlobeSince that moment on the beach, Sharon has been sharing this message quietly but powerfully. No hype. No ego. Just truth of rebuilding the divine feminine energy.

Today, nearly 30 years later, the Grandmothers’ work has taken root globally. From California to the Netherlands, New Zealand to South America, groups are gathering to strengthen the Net of Light, which is a vast web of connection that supports all life on earth and beyond.

Backed By ScienceTo me, this is amazing! I love with science and spirituality meet. Scientists actually discovered what they call the cosmic webor the fabric of the Universe. The Grandmothers say it’s the same thing as the Net of Light and it’s real.

The best news as I see it is that you are part of this net or web and the most outrageous part is the net responds to you.

There is no cost to receive the Grandmother’s empowerment. Just a simple invitation to come as you are and bring your heart. Then you too can work with the Net of Light to build yin energy and heal planet earth.

Casting the Net of LightWhen you sit with this divine feminine energy, whether in meditation or quiet prayer, you will feel it. You will likely encounter a deep sense of peace and harmony. Your presence matters because you contribute to the Net of Light – you are a sparkling light on it. That loving thought you sent someone this morning? It ripples out across the net.

Ancestors, Earth, and YouThe Grandmothers also speak about ancestor work. When you connect with your ancestors, both from your bloodline, as well as the ancestors from your land, you open the door to deep healing. Everyone and everything benefits.

Wherever your are, meditating in your backyard or lighting a candle in your kitchen, the energy moves. It flows. It blesses. And once you are aware of it, you become a natural and powerful part of that divine feminine energy.

Connect with JoySharon says one of her constant prayers is simple, “May everyone be happy around the world.” She wants you to be happy too.

The Grandmothers remind us that light work doesn’t have to feel heavy. It can be joyful, grounding, and even playful. The more you give, the more you receive. The more you connect with the Net of Light, the stronger it becomes.

They recently led a guided meditation where we saw ourselves as glowing points of light. The feeling? Instant calm. A sense of “Oh right—I remember who I am.”

Want to Participate?You can visit NetOfLight.org to dive deeper. There’s no pressure, just open-hearted people doing powerful, quiet work. You’ll find information about global zoom gatherings, online meditations, and in-person groups. Plus, there are live workshops and more.

This work is for you and also for the planet. It begins with something as simple as you showing up, as you are, filled of light.

So here’s your reminder from the Grandmothers: You are part of the Net of Light. You are held. You are powerful. And yes, your yin energy holds the key to healing yourself, the ancestors, and the world.

BIO – Sharon McErlaneSharon McErlane is the founder of Grandmothers Speak and the NetOfLight.org who share the work and messages of the Great Council of Grandmothers. Sharon was a psychotherapist for years in California, minding her own business until one day the Grandmothers materialized before her on the beach in 1996.

They explained their mission of rebuilding yin energy on the planet to balance the over abundance of yang that has been ruling the world for thousands of years. They have come to raise the divine feminine or yin energy to balance and heal the planet, the ancestors, and us. Visit NetOfLight.org to see how you can join the fun and healing.

Do you want to be psychic intuitive but wonder how to develop these skills? In this week’s podcast episode, I spoke with Brandi Van, a talented psychic medium mentor about this topic.

She helps people transform self-doubt into psychic confidence, guiding them to find and embrace their unique intuitive gifts.

Your Psychic JourneyFor many, the journey into psychic intuitive development begins with acknowledging self-doubt. Brandi’s 90-day psychic development mentorship program helps you learn to strengthen your intuition and move from skepticism to confidence.

Brandi explains that everyone is born with a sixth sense. Unfortunately, most people have not been encouraged to work with it. In fact, many people are discouraged!

By nurturing these innate gifts, you can deepen your awareness to see beyond the physical realm into a world of energy and potential.

Debunking Psychic MythsOne big misconception about being psychic is the notion of predicting the future. I shared a personal story about accurately predicting a friend’s daughter’s marriage and that she’d have two boys. Brandi was quick to clarify that being psychic is not about making predictions.

Your life is guided by free will and the choices you make can alter any prediction. Psychic abilities are truly more about sensing energies and possibilities rather than fixed outcomes.

Brandi and I agree about the importance of ethical responsibility when dealing with your psychic abilities and sharing messages. Predictions that are negative are completely unethical.

Brandi was told at her high school prom that she’d die at 26! That’s an horrific message to give anyone, never mind a teenager at the prom for goodness sake! Think of your psychic abilities like a doctor holding to the Hippocratic oath – First, do no harm.

Types of Psychic AbilitiesWe looked at different psychic abilities including precognition, telepathy, mediumship, channeling, psychometry, reading photographs and more. It’s important to know that each person’s abilities are as unique as your fingerprints!

As a psychic medium, Brandi communicates with departed loved ones, providing comfort and insight. Psychometry, the ability to read the energy of objects, was one of her first skills to develop. I’ve practiced this skill as well and really love it. Objects hold energy and memories that you pick up when holding or touching them, revealing past events, owners, and emotions.

While some may have a natural aptitude for one skill or another, Brandi reminds us that each talent is valuable and can be nurtured.

Whether your psychic powers lean toward telepathy, mediumship, or channeling, these gifts offer a deeper understanding of the world. They enable you to connect more deeply with your own life and gain a deeper understanding of your choices.

Trust Yourself & IntuitionThe biggest barrier to psychic intuitive development is often self-doubt. People are taught to prioritize scientific reasoning over inner knowing, which leads to mistrust in your intuitive insights. Building trust in yourself is essential for growing your psychic abilities.

Brandi advises regular journaling to track your intuition, notice patterns, and validate insights over time. This practice builds a record of your intuitive experiences, helping build the confidence to trust your inner voice.

Keeping the process light-hearted and fun raises your vibrations and attracting positive outcomes. Unlike a heavy or serious approach, a playful attitude can fuel your psychic journey and make learning enjoyable. It’s a journey of exploration, growth, and joy when embraced with an open heart.

Everyone Can Develop Psychic AbilitiesWe both agree that developing psychic abilities isn’t limited by age or experience. Brandi shared stories of individuals working on their psychic intuitive skills later in life, proving it’s never too late to start. Just like learning any new skill, consistent practice is key; nurturing your psychic muscles will make them so much stronger.

By the way, just because you develop your psychic abilities doesn’t mean you have to do readings for others. This can be an inward journey to guide your decisions and enhance your life direction. Tapping into your intuitive guidance helps you walk your highest path more easily.

Open Your Psychic Intuitive SkillsIf you’re just beginning or underway with learning about intuition, Brandi offers a free quiz to help you identify and validate your psychic experiences which sure sounds like fun!

Opening up and working on your psychic intuitive abilities will be helpful and fun. Your intuition is a magnificent gift waiting to enrich your life. With guidance, practice, and a dash of fun, the world of psychic potential can open up a new realm of understanding, growth, and possibilities.

BIO – Brand VanMany people struggle with doubting the validity of their psychic abilities. Brandi Van, Psychic Medium Mentor, guides and supports empaths and sensitive souls through her focused 90-day Psychic Development Mentorship Program. She’ll turn your self-doubt into psychic confidence, strengthen your intuition, and teach you how to fully embrace and harness your psychic gifts.

The results are transformative. Clients gain confidence in their abilities, live with purpose and fulfillment in their daily lives, and become empowered to make a meaningful impact on the world.

Ever wonder why you feel so connected to some people even if it doesn’t make much sense? That’s one of 14 signs of soul contracts! Discover all these signs in this new episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

What Are Soul Contracts?A soul contract is a spiritual agreement your soul makes before you’re even born. It’s like your soul’s way of sketching out a rough blueprint for growth, healing, and connection in this lifetime.

Before you incarnate, you choose certain people, experiences, and challenges that will support your evolution. Your contracts aren’t about fate calling the shots, but more like sacred invitations to grow, heal, remember who we are, and return to a deeper truth.

Some soul contracts bring ease, love, and support. Others are not so easy and may show up as conflict, heartbreak, or challenges that shake you to your core. But no matter what they look like on the surface, these agreements are here to help you grow and awaken.

Who are these people? Most often they are souls from your own soul pod, as author Michael Newton calls this group of beings. It’s like a soul family really. He’s written several books about life between lives in the soul pod and I read Journey of Souls and Destiny of Souls– I loved both!

Often showing up in powerful relationships, soul contracts include romantic partners, family members, close friends, mentors, or even people who trigger us. They can stir deep emotions or feel strangely familiar, as if you’ve done this dance before. And maybe… you have.

Some contracts last a lifetime. Others fulfill their purpose and might end abruptly or gently fall away once the lesson is complete.

What’s the Key to a Soul Contract?Mutual growth! Even if one person plays a more challenging role, both souls are learning something. A tough relationship might be helping you find your voice. A supportive one might be reminding you how worthy you are of love.

When you start to recognize these patterns, something shifts. Instead of seeing certain people or situations as random or unfair, you begin to sense the larger story unfolding—and the wisdom behind it.

So how do you know if a soul contract is at play?

14 Signs You Have a Soul Contract1. Instant Connection or Recognition. You feel like you’ve known them forever, even if you just met. There’s a spark of familiarity.

2. Strong Emotional Reactions. They bring up big feelings—love, irritation, longing, or even a mix of everything.

3. Repeating Patterns. The same dynamic keeps coming up between you, like a loop asking to be seen and healed.

4. Unfinished Business from Past Lives. You sense there’s history between you—maybe through dreams, intuitive hits, or moments that incredible familiarity.

5. Magnetic Pull. You feel drawn to each other, even when it doesn’t make logical sense.

6. They Challenge You. They reflect parts of yourself you may not want to look at but need to in order to grow.

7. Unbreakable Bond. Even if you separate, life has a way of weaving your paths back together—until the work is done.

8. Support During Turning Points. They show up during a major life shift, offering guidance, pressure, or perspective on the transformation you are undergoing.

9. Sense of Shared Purpose. The relationship feels meaningful, like you’re part of something bigger than just the connection.

10. Deep Inner Knowing. You just know this person is meant to be part of your life with no explanation needed.

11. Synchronicities in the Connection. Signs, symbols, numbers, or serendipitous events seem to echo the importance of this bond.

12. Strong Sense of Déjà Vu. Being with them feels like a scene you’ve lived before, because it feels so familiar.

13. Relationship Defies Logic. Age, distance, circumstances… none of it adds up. And yet, the connection is undeniable.

14. They Accelerate Your Spiritual Growth. This person activates something in you—an awakening, a deepening, a remembering.

Now you have the answer to what is a soul contract! Soul contracts aren’t always easy, but they often hold some of our most powerful lessons.

How to Handle Relationships with Soul ContractsWhen you sense you have a soul contract with someone, it can feel exciting, confusing, emotional—or all of the above. These relationships tend to stir something deep.

These six steps will help you better handle this special type of relationship:

Awareness — The first step is to become aware and accept that there is a contract and acknowledge the connection. Instead of trying to figure it all out or control how it unfolds, allow yourself to simply go with it.

Be Curious — Ask yourself, “What might this relationship be here to teach me?” Soul contracts are about growth. Curiosity and compassion will get you farther than judgment or fear.

Watch Your Emotional Responses — These connections often bring up strong feelings and sometimes old patterns you thought you’d already healed. Pause before reacting. Think about why tis is coming up for you. The insight that follows can be life-changing.

Set Healthy Boundaries — Having a soul contract with someone doesn’t mean you have to stay in a relationship that’s hurtful or out of alignment. Sometimes, the lesson is learning how to let go, choose yourself first, or speak your truth. Establish those healthy boundaries and take care of yourelf – that could be the lesson!

Lean into the Lesson — Whether this person is teaching you about trust, surrender, patience, or power, engage with the process. Journaling, reflection, or meditation can help you understand the deeper purpose behind the connection.

Trust the Timing — Some soul contracts are lifelong, while others are meant to be brief but transformative. Try not to cling to what “should” happen. Trust that your higher self knows what it’s doing—and that nothing is ever a waste of time.

Next time you wonder what is a soul contract or if you’re in one, reflect back on this podcast. When you meet someone who stirs your soul, there’s often more going on than meets the eye.

By remaining open, self-aware, and willing to evolve, you can navigate these deep connections with grace and wisdom.

If you’re struggling in a soul contract type of relationship, intuitive insights can make a huge difference! Schedule your session today!

Curious about the benefits of intuition? If you tap into your intuition regularly, you’re in for a treat! In this episode, I’ve explored nine amazing advantages that intuitive people enjoy over those who ignore or don’t use their skills.

Read Between the LinesIf you use your intuitive, one advantage is the ability to “read between the lines”. Life is complex and situations become easier to navigate when you pick up subtle cues. This could be in the form of body language or tone of voice.

In business, this skill can help you negotiate deals better by sensing where there’s still room to move. Being attuned to these nuances is part of having a sixth sense.

Solve Problems CreativelyIntuition sparks creativity by allowing outside-the-box thinking. Ever heard how Albert Einstein would solve problems by setting an intention, then taking a nap. He was seeking creative solutions through his dreams,

You don’t need to nap to access your creativity, but letting your intuition flow freely often results in innovative ideas that popp up out of nowhere.

Recognize PatternsNoticing patterns in life is another intuitive advantage. This lets you make connections between past experiences and new challenges, providing a quicker response to tackle problems. Intuitive folks use their vast knowledge base efficiently, while others may struggle to see these connections or leverage their previous learnings.

What’s the difference between fortune telling and intuition?

Trust Your GutThe idea of “trusting your gut” is backed by science, establishing your gut as your second brain. With up to 500 million neurons, no wonder your inner wisdom is powerful! Your gut instincts are invaluable and are there for survival.

This dates back to primitive man who had to rely on their sixth sense to keep the family and the community safe from predators and other concerns.

While some people rely solely on facts, intuitive individuals have an added layer of insight. They can successfully skip past the analysis paralysis others might face and have to suffer through.

See PossibilitiesThe ability to think about the future and see positive possibilities is another perk of being intuitive. You tend to view potential outcomes optimistically, opening up opportunities that might be unseen by those who only focus on the surface level and facts. This positivity helps in creating endless options for growth and success.

Check out my interview with Mystic Magazine about intuition.

Understand Other PeopleEmpathy is often a superpower for intuitive people. You perceive others’ emotions and thoughts without spoken words, allowing for deeper connections. While some miss these cues entirely, your empathy creates meaningful relationships.

Pick Up CluesEver felt like you have an antenna sensing the world around you? Intuitive folks often pick up environmental clues, noticing when things are off or aligned. This awareness can prevent potential issues before they ever become actual problems.

You might notice things that are out of place or how others are suddenly lined up perfectly. There are plenty of clues all around you when you are open to noticing them.

Handle Uncertainty BetterLife is full of uncertainty, which causes stress for many people. However, you’re more comfortable with the unknown when you use your intuition. It just doesn’t bother you as much as it does others who are less tuned in. Your intuition provides trust in your ability to navigate new situations, reducing stress where others might easily falter.

Live More AuthenticallyLastly, intuition helps you live more authentically because you’re more self-aware. This inner knowledge makes it easier to stay true to yourself, fend off distractions, and overcome roadblocks. You feel aligned with the universe and empowered to pursue your dreams fully. Yay!

Intuition Is Your Inner GPSYou might be surprised how often you rely on intuition daily. Whether it’s choosing the faster checkout line at the grocery store or knowing who’s calling before picking up the phone, these small decisions demonstrate your intuition in action.

If you’re not tapping into your intuition yet, there’s no time like the present. Start small with everyday decisions and watch how it enhances your life.

And if you’re ready for deeper exploration and connection with your inner wisdom, my program, Awaken Your Sixth Sense, offers seven comprehensive lessons to hone your intuitive skills. Record on audio, you’ll gets lots of things to try and ways to support and strengtehn your skills. Plus, it’s so much fun!

By trusting and developing your intuition, you open up a world of possibilities for comfort, clarity, and success.

Chaos. Darkness vs. Light. When you scroll through the news or social media, it’s easy to think darkness is unfolding at record speed.

So, what’s the deal? Is this an epic battle where we need to rally the troops? Nope. That’s old-school thinking. Let’s flip the script and dive into what’s really happening with the balance of light and dark—and why light is absolutely taking the lead.

This theme of light vs. darkness is deeply embedded in religious, philosophical, and cultural traditions. It symbolizes the eternal struggle between good and evil, knowledge and ignorance, and spiritual enlightenment versus delusion.

Misconceptions of BalanceMany believe that the light and dark must be equal, like the scales of justice—but what if that’s not the case? What if light is actually growing, outpacing the darkness, regardless of what you might be seeing in the world right now?

I’m going to explore why light is more powerful than dark. I’ll talk aout how the balance is spiritually. Most importantly—how can YOU strengthen and shine your own light in today’s world which needs it so much.

First, I’m going to address the misconceptions about balance. Imagine Lady Justice which is probably familiar—picture two scales balanced in perfect harmony on either side of a women dressed in the clothing of ancient Greece and blindfolded. Classic, right?

But did you know she originated in ancient Egypt? Yup – from the Egyptian Goddess Maat, who stood for truth, justice, and cosmic order. She would weigh a person’s heart against a feather to determine their fate in the afterlife.

The scales of justice carried forward into ancient Greek and Roman mythology. Yet, when you think about it, the scales are rarely depicted as perfectly balanced. More often they tilt—one side rising while the other falls.

This visual has reinforced a common misunderstanding: that darkness increases as light diminishes. That’s not how energy works!

Darkness vs. Light -They Are NOT EqualsMost people picture light vs. dark like some kind of cosmic seesaw. If one side goes up, the other must go down, right? Wrong. That’s a total misconception.

Think about it—darkness doesn’t actually exist on its own. It’s just the absence of light. The moment you introduce even the tiniest spark, darkness disappears. It doesn’t fight back or push against the light. It just doesn’t exist anymore.

We’re conditioned to believe in balance, like Lady Justice holding her scales. Believe it or not, that image scales was inspired by Maat, an Egyptian goddess who weighed a person’s heart against a feather. If your heart was heavy with lies and fear, you failed the test. If it was light with truth and wisdom, you moved forward.

See where I’m going? Light doesn’t just exist alongside darkness. It transforms it.

Light Is MultiplyingIf it feels like things are more intense than ever, that’s because they are. But not for the reasons you may think.

Kryon, a channeled entity by Lee Carol said something fascinating about the light. He says today’s light is different. It doesn’t just illuminate more brightly—it multiplies. It creates more light and is self-sustaining. That changes everything.

For years, light workers had to work hard to maintain their glow. It felt like one step forward, one step back. But now? Light is spreading at a rate never seen before. It’s gaining momentum, expanding on its own, and—this is the best part, it’s irreversible.

You can’t un-know what you’ve awakened to. Once the light is on, darkness can’t reclaim that space.

Why Darkness Feels BiggerIf light is winning, why does darkness seem so… intense?

Because darkness is panicking and scrambling. Darkness struggles as it recognizes that it’s being outshined. Think of this like darkness throwing a massive tantrum on the way out. Or like a villain in the final act of a movie—right before they go down, they get desperate, dramatic, and destructive.

The systems that thrived on secrecy, fear, and division are starting to crumble. The institutions that relied on people staying small and uninformed are beginning to lose control. And they know it.

Here’s the kicker – darkness needs your fear to survive. It has no power of its own. Darkness can only grow if you feed it with worry, doubt, and division. But the moment you choose light, even for a second, you weaken its hold.

This is why people waking up in droves is so powerful. Every single person who chooses kindness over hate, courage over fear, and love over resentment chips away at the old energy and negativity. This is how we conquer in a world where it seems darkness vs. light is happening.

How To Shine Even BrighterYou don’t have to be perfect or a guru on a mountaintop. You just have to be yourself—as fully, authentically, and unapologetically as possible.

Here are eight ways to amplify your light:

  1. Meditate, even for five minutes. Stillness increases your energy.
  2. Get outside. Nature is a powerhouse of light energy.
  3. Surround yourself with high-vibe people. Your energy matters.
  4. Drop the fear. It’s not helping, and it’s not real.
  5. Practice gratitude. Nothing raises your vibration faster.
  6. Follow your intuition. That gut feeling? It’s your soul speaking.
  7. Create something. Art, music, writing—light loves expression.
  8. Be of service. Every act of kindness is a ripple of light expanding outward.

It’s not about battling darkness—it’s about choosing to shine so brightly that darkness has nowhere to hide.

The World Needs Your LightThink of yourself as a lighthouse. Does a lighthouse chase away the darkness? No. It simply stands tall and radiates light onto the coastline, helping boaters find their way.

What a relief! You don’t need to fight anything. You don’t need to struggle. Just be the light which inspires others to do the same. And collectively? We become an unstoppable force.

When it comes to darkness vs.light, the darkness is NOT winning. It’s just making a lot of noise on the way out. Light is rising, expanding, and taking the lead. And the best part? You’re part of that!

So, keep shining. The world is brighter because of you.

This episode is an updated, encore presentation of a well-listened to podcast I did years ago about the Luck of the Irish for St. Patrick’s Day. I talk about what luck is and where the phrase the “Luck of the Irish” originated.

Meditation for LuckThen I share a wonderful meditation (maybe 15 minutes) about connecting to your luck and being inspired by Irish luck. It’s fanciful, fun, uplifting, and REAL. Irish luck comes with a long history and ancient lore about faery folk, leprechauns, rainbows and pots of gold.

Immerse yourself in this concept and open to the luck flowing your way. The more luck you receive, the more you can share. Send it around to your friends and family. Luck is not meant to be savored alone but sprinkled around for all to enjoy and benefit from!

I am not Irish by birth, but my husband is, so I’m Irish by marriage! We visited Ireland years ago and had the most magical time there. Just loved it. The people were warm, helpful, and friendly. The food was great and so were the pubs. The places we visited were beautiful, and the land was absolutely brimming with magic.

I’ve also written a couple of articles about luck and how you can make your own or increase your good fortune. You can discover the eight magical items that create or attract good luck in this post.

And, if you still want more, you might want to read this fun and empowering post about how to create a lucky life!

Naturally, luck and magic are interchangeable ideas to me. It’s all about lightening up, finding joy, having fun, as well as feeling and sharing love. Magic strongly correlates to love and gratitude because both open your heart, allowing more magic to flow.

I am grateful for the luck and magic in my life and am so happy to share my joy about this with you. I know without question that you are lucky too!

In a world obsessed with self-improvement, it’s easy to get stuck in an endless cycle of healing. I recently sat down with Katie White to discuss how to break out of this never-ending loop and step into real transformation.

Addiction to HealingI kicked kicked off our conversation with a bold statement from Katie’s newsletter: “Healing is not a full-time job.” Wow, did that hit me.

How many of you have made healing your personal life project? Chasing the next breakthrough and dissecting every trigger. Your convinced that if you just fix one more thing, you’ll finally be whole and happy

But what happens when healing becomes another form of self-imposed struggle? When there’s no end in sight to your healing journey or the start of your happiness?

Katie explained how the human brain can get addicted to the problem-solving process. It’s easy to get so caught up in “fixing” that you actually forget to live. This is like reliving the movie Groundhog Day where the same scenes repeat over and over again.

There you are doing all the energy work, all the inner digging, striving to heal, but seeing little change in your external world. Sound familiar?

Are You Stuck or Evolving?Here’s the key difference: Transformation isn’t about constantly processing or healing. Nope, it’s about approaching life differently.

Katie shared a powerful example of a client who had done the deep work, unpacked her trauma, but still hesitated to step into the world. The shift didn’t happen through more healing sessions.

Instead, her long awaited shift occurred when she started recognizing and embracing new facets of herself, looking and living beyond her wounds. That’s when real transformation kicked in.

What are the signs that you are evolving?

  • Your reactions change
  • Old triggers lose their grip
  • Instead of spiraling, you respond with more ease

If that’s not happening, it might be time to ask yourself, “Am I actually healing, or just looping?” Looping is when you are going in circles, working to heal the same thing again and again.

Who Are You Without the Struggle?One of the most eye-opening moments in the conversation was when Katie called out the biggest block to transformation. She called it “Identity Attachment”.

Many people seem to unconsciously cling to their pain because it’s familiar. It becomes a comfort zone of sorts because it’s a familiar situation or feeling. If you’ve spent years defining yourself by what you’ve been through, it can feel unsettling to ask, “Who am I without this story?”

Here’s the truth. Letting go of your trauma identity doesn’t mean you’re erasing your past. It means you’re making room for the expansive, multifaceted person you’re meant to be.

The Dreaded Question “What’s New?”Ever struggle with the casual question friends or family often start a conversation with? “What’s new?” I cringe when I hear that question because I live a quiet life.

I feel this anxiety creep over me due to what I experience as social pressure. Am I supposed to have something profound to report? Like I should have a major life update to share when anyone poses that question.

While some people go on big trips, buy a new car, or luxury items, that’s not my life. There’s nothing wrong with that, it’s just not what happens with me.

So, when everyone starts talking about what’s new in their life, what do I say? “I channelled Poseiden and we talked about the state of the oceans.” There’d be sirens headed my way with a straight jacket. LOL

Reframing Your LifeHere’s a new idea to consider—what if I’m over overcomplicating it? Katie reminded me that “newness” isn’t just about big, flashy changes. Something new can be in the small, subtle shifts or every day moments of my life.

For example, I might have a fresh perspective on a particular subject people are talking about or explored a new area of ancient history. Maybe I changed how I’m eating, started a new exercise regimine, or made a few new recipes.

This really is a case of reframing. For one thing, I am always learning, so I can talk about what I have discovered. Surprisingly, the little things count far more than the credit I give them! Hear more about the power of reframing.

Outgrowing Friends Is NormalAnother hard truth about life and friendship is as you evolve, not everyone will come with you. Recently, I discovered that is actually NORMAL. Mel Robbins, in her podcast just had an episode about the three pillars of adult friendship. She says expect things to change. Thanks Mel!

Katie pointed out that friendships and social circles are meant to be fluid. People enter our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. If certain relationships start feeling misaligned, it’s not a failure—it’s a sign of growth.

Give yourself permission to seek connections that resonate with who you are today, not just who you used to be.

Find Joy in the Small StuffWe wrapped up with the simplest, yet most profound realization: life isn’t just about the big triumphs. Joy is in the small moments that happen while you wait for the big moments, like graduation, getting married, the birth of a baby, etc.

Magic can often be found in the seemingly mundane. These are all perfect examples of where you can find joy and magic in any day:

  • The warmth of the sun on your face
  • Your first sip of coffee in the morning
  • Your favorite song on the radio
  • A great catch-up conversation
  • A hummingbird flying by
  • Sharing a memorable meal
  • Finding money in a parking lot
  • A colorful sunrise or sunset
  • A warm hug just when you need it
  • The first crocuses of spring
  • Trying something for the first time
  • Laughter with a good friend

These aren’t just filler moments. Often these are THE moments. When you string together all the little things, you see. They are all pieces of your happy life.

Stop Waiting to ArriveKatie left me with a powerful reminder: Stop waiting to “arrive.” The goal isn’t to heal forever—it’s to live fully. Shift from “I’ll be happy when…” to embracing the now, and watch your world transform.

Are you ready to get off the healing hamster wheel and step into a better life? The best strategy is to start small. Celebrate the tiny wins. Explore new sides of yourself.

Most importantly—live your life. Because transformation isn’t a destination. It’s happening right now, in every single choice you make.

Now go shine your light—the world is waiting!

Are your days filled with problems rather than positivity and sunshine? Discover the simple keys to happiness because life is too short to be grumpy!

On this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I had the pleasure of hosting Deborah Mallow, a.k.a. your personal ray of sunshine. Deborah spent years cracking the code on how to inspire positivity and end self-sabotage, which she details in her book, Six Steps to Fewer Days That Suck.

Trust me, this is not just fluffy, feel-good advice—her methods are practical, doable, and shockingly effective. Let’s dig into some of the wisdom she shared.

Get Deborah’s Free Gift – You can join her Positive Energy Club and download her Motivational Checklist, Happiness Worksheets, and Feel-Good Activities that will help you build a life that’s lighter, brighter, and way more fun!

Your Brain Loves the DramaEver wonder why your brain clings to that one annoying comment someone made five years ago instead of the dozens of compliments you’ve received since? Blame it on your ancestors.

As Deborah explains, negativity bias is an ancient survival mechanism. Back when our biggest problem was not getting eaten by a saber-toothed tiger, focusing on danger kept us alive.

But in today’s world, there are no saber-toothed tigers lurking around the corner. Yet, our brains still act like every inconvenience is a life-threatening crisis.

The good news? You can rewire your brain to focus on the positive. With conscious effort, you can boost the feel-good neurotransmitters—dopamine and serotonin—while lowering stress-related hormones like cortisol.

And no, this doesn’t mean forcing yourself to be toxically positive. It’s about making small, conscious shifts that add up over time to help you feel more optimistic and uplifted.

Here’s what my honeysuckle vine told me about joy.

Break the Habit of MiseryDeborah introduced me to a concept I absolutely love: being personally considerate. It’s about treating yourself with the same level of patience and kindness that you (hopefully) extend to others. In other words, stop being so mean to yourself.

Many people get stuck in a loop of negative self-talk, replaying their failures like a bad highlight reel. But here’s the trick that has worked like a charm for me. The moment you catch yourself spiraling, ask, “What would I rather be thinking right now?

That one powerful question can redirect your focus and stop negativity in its tracks. It’s simple, but incredibly impactful.

Turn Annoyance into LaughterI shared a personal story with Deborah that I think a lot of people can relate to. My husband got into this habit of singing the same theme song from a TV show we were watching, over and over. I felt like my brain might actually explode.

It was drivng me nuts. I’d roll my eyes and sigh dramatically, and I actually asked him to just stop. The next day, I had an epiphany: The problem wasn’t the song, it was my reaction to the song.

Instead of fuming, I joined him! We sang the theme togther at the end of every episode and suddenly, something that annoyed me became something we did together and laughed about.

Deborah pointed out that most of life’s irritations don’t actually matter. Like the next day it’s over and you’re on to something else. If you can learn to laugh at them, you win. Simple as that.

Perfectionism Is the EnemyEver spend an absurd amount of time tweaking an email, redoing your eyeliner, or rewriting a to-do list just to make it perfect. (Guilty.)

I refer to this as the “margin of diminishing returns” which is actually something I lerned in my college economics class. The point is there comes a time when the extra effort doesn’t actually improve the outcome—it just stresses you out.

Instead of obsessing over perfection, focus on what actually moves the needle. Will it ruin your day if you don’t rewrite that sentence five times? Probably not. Will it ruin your day if your eyeliner is a tiny bit uneven? Only if you let it.

Perfectionism is a trap, and the sooner you escape it, the happier you’ll be.

Stop Anger in Its TracksLet’s talk about anger. We all experience it, but how we handle it makes all the difference.

Deborah swears by a simple but effective technique: Breathing. Not just any breathing, though. She recommends a conscious breath where you deeply inhale, hold for a moment, and then slowly exhale while imagining releasing all that frustration.

Maybe you breathe in to the count of four, hold for four and releae for the ount of six. Why does this work? Because breathing physically shifts your nervous system. It moves you from a fight-or-flight state to a place of calm control.

So, next time someone cuts you off in traffic or your internet crashes mid-Zoom call, take a breath before you react. It might just save your sanity.

Daily Rituals for HappinessOne of the best ways to prevent bad days from spiraling is to have a solid set of mood-boosting rituals. Deborah shared some of her favorites:

  • The Gratitude Jar: Write down one good thing each day and toss it in a jar. On tough days, pull one out and remind yourself that life isn’t all bad.
  • Dance Therapy: Put on your favorite song and dance like an absolute maniac. It’s nearly impossible to stay in a bad mood when you’re flailing around like a happy lunatic.
  • The 30-Second Smile Trick: Smile for 30 seconds, even if you don’t feel like it. Your brain doesn’t know the difference between a real and fake smile—it just starts releasing feel-good chemicals anyway.
  • Creativity Breaks: Doodle, paint, or write silly poetry. Engaging in creative activities can reset your brain and boost your mood.

Happiness Is in Your HandsAt the end of the day, the biggest takeaway from my chat with Deborah is this – you have more control over your happiness than you might think.

Yes, life can be messy and people can be annoying. Yes, bad days happen. But you always have a choice in how you react.

What small shift can you make today? Maybe you can…

  • Laugh at an annoyance instead of stressing over it?
  • Replace a negative thought with a more constructive positive one?
  • Take a deep breath before reacting?

It’s all about tiny, intentional changes that stack up over time. Before you know it, you’ll find yourself having fewer days that suck—and way more that actually feel pretty darn good.

Now go forth and make today a little happier. You’ve got this!

Magic isn’t about pulling a rabbit out of hat. Real magic is about directing energy with emotion. It’s about living consciously and weaving intention into the fabric of your daily life. Amplifying your presence with love, light, and a touch of mystery.

Infuse Magic into Your LifeEvery morning, you make a choice: stumble through the day on autopilot or step into it with intention. Energy magic begins with awareness.

Start with your morning cuppa. Whether it’s coffee, tea, or lemon water, don’t just chug it while doom-scrolling. Instead, pause. Hold your mug, close your eyes, and imagine warmth radiating through you, filling every cell with vitality.

Stir love and energy into it. Visualize it awakening not just your body but your spirit. Whisper a word of gratitude, even if it’s just, “Let’s make today magical.”

Before stepping out the door, take a second. Picture the path ahead of you shimmering with light, clearing obstacles before you even reach them. Imagine the air around you charged with possibility. Walk into the world knowing you’re aligned with something greater than the mundane rush to work.

Energy Is Expansive—Direct It WiselyYou don’t have to be a mystic to feel energy. Ever walked into a room and immediately sensed tension? Or met someone whose presence instantly lifted your mood? That’s energy magic at play. And guess what? You’re broadcasting yours all the time.

So, why not do it with purpose?

Send out silent blessings as you move through your day. Picture the people around you surrounded by golden light. Even that grumpy barista or the person who just cut you off in traffic.

Imagine sending them a spark of peace. It’s not for them, but for you. Holding resentment weighs you down, letting love flow keeps you light and free.

At work? Imagine your workspace infused with harmony. See yourself radiating clarity and confidence. If a tough conversation looms ahead, picture it bathed in understanding before it even happens.

Energy precedes action, so set the tone before you even speak.

Transform the Ordinary into the ExtraordinaryCooking? Don’t just go through the motions. Stir magic into your food. Imagine the meal nourishing more than just bodies—see it feeding souls, strengthening bonds, and bringing joy. Light a candle while you cook, play music that makes you feel alive, and infuse every movement with intention.

Cleaning? Instead of treating it like a chore, make it an energetic reset. Picture negativity being wiped away as you dust and scrub. Open windows, let fresh air in, and envision stale energy leaving with it. Smudging with sage or spraying a mist of essential oils can amplify the shift.

Even the simplest acts—tying your shoes, brushing your hair, taking a deep breath—can become sacred when done with awareness. The secret? Being present.

Your Thoughts Create RealityManifestation isn’t just a buzzword. It’s the art of aligning thought, feeling, and action. What you focus on grows, so be mindful of what you mentally rehearse.

If you’re fixated on what’s going wrong, you’re energetically reinforcing it. Instead, shift and ask yourself, “What’s one thing going right?” Let that anchor you. Build on it.

Visualize your dreams as if they’re already unfolding. Feel the excitement, the relief, the joy. The Universe responds to emotion more than words. That’s how energy magic works.

It’s not just about saying, “I want abundance,” but feeling abundant before it even arrives. Act as if you’re already aligned with the life you want, and watch how reality starts to catch up.

Make Magic a Daily RitualMagic isn’t a one-time event; it’s a lifestyle. It’s in the small, consistent actions that shift your energy and shape your reality.

Discover 30 Juicy Bits of Daily Magic

  • Speak with intention—Words carry power, so choose them wisely.
  • Move with purpose—Walk, dance, stretch, let your body express your energy.
  • Breathe with awareness—Inhale light, exhale doubt.
  • Surround yourself with beauty—Treat yourself to flowers, candles, or art because what you see affects how you feel.
  • Celebrate the small wins—Gratitude amplifies magic!

You Are the MagicAt the end of the day, energy magic isn’t something outside of you. It’s not reserved for the gifted, the chosen, or the enlightened. It’s within you, waiting to be activated.

So go ahead—infuse magic into your coffee, your commute, your conversations. Send light ahead of you. Bless the spaces you enter. Watch how life shifts when you show up as an active creator rather than a passive participant.

Because magic isn’t just real—it’s who you are.

And, last but not least, remember to Breathe Love & Magic!

In this episode, I’m talking about 12 kinds of love—romantic makes up just three of them! If you’re single, guess what? You still have NINE other types of love to celebrate on Valentine’s Day (or any day).

Love Defined by the Ancient GreeksAccording to the ancient Greeks, there are seven types of love that actually fall into different categories. Those Greeks really were amazing scholars and philosphers weren’t they? We still refer to their work today!

3 Kinds of Romantic Love1. Eros – Passionate Love
This one’s all about attraction, chemistry, butterflies in the stomach—classic romantic love. Think gazing into each other’s eyes, sparks flying, and that intoxicating, can’t-get-enough feeling.

2. Ludus – Flirty, Playful Love

Mindblowing Truth About Falling in LoveWhen I started my journey to find love, I began with the idea that I had love energy within me, but I figured it was stagnant. That’s why my objective was to get my love energy moving again!

How did I do that? I wrote a bunch of little songs or chants to open my heart, believe in love, let go of past loves, and attract the one for me. These chants not only worked for me, but they have worked for my dating coaching clients as well. And as my Valentine’s Day gift to you, you can listen or download to all seven chants for FREE!

I learned something mind-blowing from acupuncturist Michael Hunter: Falling in love isn’t about finding someone—it’s about falling into the love that already exists within you.

The bottom line is that love is a state of being. YOU ARE LOVE. The other person is the spark that ignites the fire of love that already resides within you. You are not really in love with them but in love with love – the energy of love. This is how you remember that you are made of love!

So, when you love yourself, take care of yourself, honor yourself, maintain healthy boundaries, then you are more at peace. This is inner peace which is at the very center of world peace. Which means when you love yourself, you actually give world peace a chance to blossom.

Awesome advice about conscious dating in this podcast.

Love Ripples OutThis is so incredibly powerful that it causes a chain reaction. This love energy begins to ripple out to everyone around you. And as that catches on, it ripples out around them – and so on, and so on.

When you embrace this truth, love stops feeling like something external to chase and becomes something you naturally radiate. As you radiate love from within, your energy field turns into an attraction beacon, drawing love to you.

Love attracts love because self-love makes you outrageously magnetic!

Want to attract love? Shift your energy! Love yourself, love your life, and you’ll become a magnet for the right partner who is the spark that ignites your love even more.

How to Celebrate Love – Single or Not!1. Throw a Galentine’s Day Party
Amy Poehler’s Parks and Rec character made this a thing back in 2010, and it’s brilliant! Gather your besties, eat, laugh, and toast to love of your friendships. The official day is February 13th but any day will do!

2. Indulge in Self-Care
Massage, Reiki, facials, a hot scented bath—treat yourself like the VIP you are.

3. Buy Yourself Flowers & Chocolate
Why wait for someone else to do it? Go get what you want!

4. Send Love Notes
Text your favorite women (or men) and tell them why they matter. Instant mood booster!

Listen to these 3 readings about love for single gals

5. Make a Special Meal
Bake heart-shaped cupcakes, cook a fancy dinner—celebrate love in all its forms.

6. Pamper Your Pets
New toy, extra treats, snuggles—your pet deserves love, too!

7. Spread Kindness
Hand out chocolates, buy coffee for a stranger, bring treats to work. This is how love multiplies when you share it!

8. Donate to a Cause You Love
This is a beautiful example of agape love in action. Give to a charity that touches your heart.

In this episode, I’m talking about the Planetary Alignment 2025 with seven planets showing up in the night sky and all the challenges you face as a result!

The Planetary ParadeThis big celestial event started on January 25, 2025 and is a rare cosmic spectacle—featuring Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune all in the sky at the same time. The planets aren’t actually in a perfect line as some have said, but they are all in one area of the night sky to be viewed simultaneously!

This event is also called a “Planetary Parade.” How fun is that! It’s a big deal and this will go on until February 28th.

If you’re the sensitive type who feels the energetic shifts of celestial events, this one may pack a punch. But what does it mean spiritually? And more importantly, how can you make the most of it?

The Spiritual SignificanceWhenever planets align, there’s a collective energy shift. Imagine these celestial bodies as tuning forks, all vibrating in harmony for a brief moment. This particular planetary alignment 2025 is thought to bring heightened awareness, deep transformation, and a call to realign with your soul’s path.

One way to look at this is to consider the opportunities that are present for you. It’s like doors are opening on the divine soul blueprint of your life and you get to choose and cross the threshold.

Now you might be wondering – “Ronnie, if you don’t like astrology, why are you talking about planetary influences?” Such a good question! Let me clarify. I don’t like checking out my own personal astrology because I find it limiting.

I’m a little rebel and don’t want to be told what’s going to happen or not happen for me. But something big like planetary influences affect us all. I am very interested in that because then I can understand what is happening and how I might respond or counteract something. I hope that explains my position.

Energy of Each PlanetEach of these planets carries its own energetic signature:

  • Venus brings love and relationships into focus
  • Mars ignites passion and drive (maybe a little war?)
  • Jupiter expands possibilities and brings joy
  • Saturn lays the foundation for long-term success
  • Uranus shakes things up with unexpected changes
  • Neptune dissolves illusions while deepening intuition

When they all synchronize, it’s like the Universe flipping a switch—bringing clarity, awakening, and perhaps a nudge (or a shove) in the direction of your highest good. Could also be a kick in the pants because I just got one.

How to Harness the Cosmic EnergyThe planetary alignment 2025 isn’t just a pretty sight—it’s an invitation to jump in and leverage what’s happening. How can you make the most of what is going on in the cosmos?

Here are some ways you can work with the energy to create real shifts in your life:

  1. Set Clear IntentionsThis is a potent time for setting intentions that align with your deepest desires. Think of it as placing an order with the Universe—specific, clear, and infused with energy. Write them down, say them out loud, or even create a small ritual around them.

  2. Meditate & Tune InExperts say the cosmic energy is heightened, which to me says the vibration or frequency is higher. What does that mean? This energy also heightens your intuition which you may find is sharper than usual.

Take time to sit in stillness, journal, or engage in visualization exercises. You might receive insights about the next steps in your life, or simply feel a deeper connection to yourself. When you put in thought, time, and energy on your intention, you are creating a beacon and sending it out into the cosmos.

Being specific is very important. And you can always wrap up swith words like “This or something better”. When you finish with this kind of sentiment, you are leaving room for the Universe which actually knows better than you what’s for your highest good.

  1. Embrace TransformationWith Uranus in the mix, don’t be surprised when unexpected shifts start happening. If something in your life is crumbling or changing rapidly, trust that it’s making space for something better. Alignments like this tend to shake loose anything that’s no longer serving you.

I know that’s not easy and I’m feeling this myself big time. My relationships are shifting and some people are falling away.

  1. Use Tools to Amplify the EnergyThere are many tools ou can use to amplify your energy. Crystals are a classic tool. You might choose amethyst (intuition), citrine (self-esteem and confidence), and black tourmaline (protection and absorption of negative energy) can help you stay grounded and direct your energy.

Sound healing is a smart choice for helping you to release what no longer serves you and heal as well. Card readings or working with the runes or I ching can give you a bit of extra insight and guidance.

Breathwork and tapping EFT are other wonderful healing tools that will allow you to release stuck emotions from your body. Once you let go, your frequency has the ability to rise even higher.

The higher your vibe, the more magnetic you are, more in the flow and things can manifest more easily. This is how you can spend more time in the flow and allow everything to fall into place during this planetary alignment 2025.

  1. Connect with Like-Minded SoulsGroup energy is amazingly powerful. Being with others doing spiritual work, meditating, or using your intuition, amplifies everyone’s energy. It intensifies what’s there, unifies and magnifies.

Whether it’s a small gathering in person, an online circle, or even a one-on-one conversation with a friend who “gets it,” sharing your experiences and intentions during this time will likely be incredibly powerful.

This is exactly what will transpire in my program the Magic Hour. There is no better way to grow faster and speed up your abilities than with the amplification of group energy. Plus, you get such a feeling of support and community.

When you grow and try new things within a group setting, it completely enhances your experience and brings a sense of fun, companionship, and joy. That’s a big part of what my clients love about the Magic Hour.

Planetary Alignment 2025The planetary alignment has created windows of heightened awareness and energetic shifts, but it’s up to you to step up and take advantage of them. This planetary alignment 2025 is an open door to realigning with your purpose in case you’ve gotten off track.

It’s a chance to release what’s outdated and what no longer serves you, so you can move on. It’s time to correct the course of the boat you’ve been sailing, and head into a more authentic version of yourself.

Take a moment right now to think about what’s calling to you? What changes have been nudging at you? What have your guides been saying or your dreams been communicating? This is the time to move forward.

Consider this planetary alignment as a universal green light—it’s time to sail beyond where you have gone before. New adventures are waiting. Will you take one? I sure hope so!

Update on My Spiritual JourneyNow, I want to share a little about what’s been happening for me at this time. I can’t say it’s been easy. Last Friday I really fell into a hole of sorts, wondering, “What am I doing?” Things aren’t making sense. The message I’m getting is to let go but exactly how do I do that? How do I let go but keep going?

Here’s how my spiritual adventure began

My friend Krista told me I needed to go outside and be in nature. It was cold out and rain was threatening. But I put on my boots and walked to the back yard. Our property borders on some open space and I went all the way back to where the wildness begins.

Standing there for a while, I took in the view of tall grasses, golden and dry, waving in the strong breeze. I saw a couple of birds and heard the rustling of squirrels clambering up a tree. And I spoke to the Universe and aired my concerns. This is how I’m working with the planetary alignment 2025.

Next, I thought I’d try the divination method that Ashley Brothers taught in least week’s episode. Pose your specific question and ask to see signs.

Divination in My BackyardThe first sign I saw was a stalk of milkweed. It looked weathered and old, and the pods hung open at the top, mostly empty. And yet a couple still had a few seeds clinging to those pods. The thought came to me, well those seeds could still fall to the ground and pop up this spring. That possibility does exist.

Then, I walked over to the garden where I noticed one of the 4-foot-tall stakes that holds up the wire fence was no longer attached. It was leaning and no longer supporting the fence. That needs fixing for sure! So, the metal stake was disconnected, not being used, not engaged, not doing its job.

I moved on to notice a silver corner bracket on a bench just sitting there. The bracket was in good shape, but it wasn’t doing anything. Just sitting there for an unknown reason. Again, it wasn’t engaged, it wasn’t being useful, it wasn’t supporting anything or connected to anything. Same thing as the metal fence stake. Interesting, right?

The last item is a copper metal sculpture – like an oversized pinwheel for the flower garden. But it was not standing up straight – instead, it was lying on the ground, not being used. Not being decorative, not doing what it was meant to do – be pretty and spin in the wind.

Okay, that’s three metal items and one organic. I went back in the house and decided to look up the element metal in Chinese Medicine to see what that is about.

Metal Element in Chinese MedicineMetal is structure, boundaries, discernment of what to keep and what to let go of. Interesting! Metal is about lungs and large intestines which relates to grief, sadness, self-worth, negative emotions. On the positive side it’s about clarity, decisiveness, focus and integrity.

When I think of metal what comes to mind is hard, cold, rigid, unyielding, and strong. Adding everything up what stood out most was this idea of letting go and being resilient. To keep going and keep standing. Find the support I need.

There’s a lot more in the podcast including picking a card and a message from my higer self, but this post is getting too long. Listen in to hear the rest of this episode about planetary alignment 2025!

Discover divination methods and how to tap into the subconscious mind, higher self, and spirit. In this Breathe Love &Magic episode, I had the pleasure of with Ashley Brothers all about using intuition and second sight.

What Is Divination?Divination has been around since ancient times, with people accessing their second sight around the globe through a variety of divination methods. Ashley explained that traditional methods like reading tea leaves or using crystal balls are more than just fortune telling. They are ways of connecting perspectives through different objects which hold significant meaning.

The exciting thing is that she took us through a process that featured the query, “Is he the right guy for me? How timely with Valentine’s Day just around the corner! If you’ve been wondering this same thing, you’ve got to hear this podcast!

In her work, Ashley relies on the objects she notices after posing a specific question. She emphasized that true divination goes beyond accepting just the obvious interpretation of an object. Instead, it involves understanding the object deeply across various levels of perception.

Whether it’s a stone, a tarot card, or even a broken leaf, the essence of divination lies more in the interpretation through your senses and emotions.

Four States of PerceptionWe talked at length about the four states of perception. These are the physical-literal, mental-emotional, metaphorical-symbolic, and energetic. When examining an object that has caught your attention, start with the physical features like texture or color. Then notice emotions or thoughts that arise as you focus on it.

Afterward, you explore the symbolic meaning and what the object represents metaphorically. Finally, assess the energetic feel—does it seem light or heavy, constricted or expansive?

Through this exploration, you can gain a deeper and more accurate understanding of what your intuition is trying to communicate.

Notice Attraction & RepulsionAn intriguing point Ashley made was paying attention to what attracts and repulses you when working with divination. She explained that attractions might indicate familiar patterns, sometimes leading back to old habits.

On the other hand, things that repulse you could either be warnings or fears that need to be faced. This awareness encourages a balanced and insightful journey into your own intuitive fields. Being honest about these feelings allows you to navigate more authentically through divination methods.

Guiding Your IntuitionAshley explained that divination is a personal journey into your subconscious mind. Whether you’re using cards or other divination tools, she advises grounding yourself to clear the emotional noise. This way, your intuition can guide you more accurately.

One handy tip she shared involves muscle testing which keeps you from false information. Engaging with your heart’s truth opens a clearer channel for intuitive messages.

Shamanic JourneyI shared an experience of a shamanic journey that delivered amazing and deeply meaningful visions including a jaguar cutting me to ribbons and putting me back together. However, when I tried this a second time months later, nothing came to me at all, so I asked Ashley about this.

She said that sometimes the tools and techniques that work the first time may yield nothing the next time. This doesn’t necessarily reflect failure but rather shows how anticipation and expectation can block your intuitive flow. Approaching each journey without preconceived outcomes opens up the possibility for new insights and revelations.

Listen to this episode about generational shamans.

Getting Started with DivinationIf you are new to divination methods, Ashley recommends starting with different types of tools like runes, tarot, or I Ching. Experiment with different decks if cards are your choice, as some might resonate with you more deeply.

Another step to take that can move you forward is to find a teacher, locally or online. Working with someone experienced offers invaluable insights and personal growth opportunities. You benefit from the professional’s knowledge, energy, and encouragement.

The key to solid divination that helps you in life is to explore and find what aligns authentically with your inner wisdom.

Find out what it’s like to grow up with shamans.

Ouija Boards and ChannelingWhile there are many wondrous tools and divination methods, both Ashley cautions against the Ouija board. The reason is this method often attracts lower level energies. It’s essential to ensure who you’re channeling or seeking advice from is from a source truly aligned with your highest good.

For example, I’ve had enough experiences to know the necessity for inviting only whole and healed ancestors into your sacred space. Spirits on the astralplane will not always have your highest good in mind. You want to have a safe and beneficial divination experience.

Divination is a JourneyAshley left us with an inspiring note—each divination journey is unique, just as you are. Embrace the variety and abundance of resources available and cherish the personal discoveries that unfold.

Whether you prefer cards, crystals, or other tools, remember that the journey enriches how you understand yourself, drawing you inward to your genuine path.

Buckle up spiritual friends! We’re diving into a mystical world – Chinese Zodiac the Year of the Snake. Don’t be squeamish – the snake is positive!

This may surprise you, but this year’s Yin Wood Snake brings a gentle transformative energy, inviting you to be introspective and embrace change. In this episode of the Breathe Love and Magic podcast, I chatted with my friend Kim Julen, a Feng Shui Intuitive Coach, about what this mystical year has in store for you.

New Year Unveils the Yin Wood SnakeKim pointed out there are two celebrations of Chinese New Year – the first is Lunar New Year (January 29th )and the Solar New Year (February 3rd) when the changes really start to kick in.

The snake symbolizes wisdom and transformation, offering a shift from the active energy of last year’s yang wood dragon. This year will be more feminine, with a calmer, introspective vibe. It’s about recalibration and welcoming new beginnings. As Kim put it, “This year, we have a chance to take a breath, go within, and embrace the yin.”

Slow Down and Look AroundKim and I spoke about the importance of slowing down this year. The snake teaches not only to grow but also to let go of what doesn’t serve you. It’s a time for healing and focusing on inner transformation. A year, perhaps, to focus on wellness—both emotional and physical.

Comparing this year with 2024, Kim noted that last year was about fiery activity even though the divine feminine energy was coming in. On the other hand, 2025 offers tranquility. It’s a year to tune into yourself and take a cosmic breath.

Imagine shedding old narratives and what no longer serves you just like a snake sloughs off its old skin. Then you’ll be ready to manifest with joy and lightness.

Think about it. While everyone else is out there hustling, you’ll be doing the real work of internal alchemy and emotional detox. Sort of like spiritual spring cleaning.

Feng Shui Tips for the Snake YearWith Feng Shui insights, Kim shared this practical magic toolkit for the Snake year. Here are simple actions you can take to align your space with this year’s energy:

  • Declutter your living space before the new year begins
  • Replace old or broken items
  • Be sure all your light bulbs are working
  • Pay attention to clearing the energy of your living and office space
  • Invest in a new door mat, maybe turquoise or green to highlight the wood element

Also, last year, according to Chinese astrology, the wheel moved into period nine which is about completing things. If you want Success Tips for the Next 20 years to Navigate Period 9 with Success click here

Chinese Astrology – Animals Most ImpactedFor those of you who are curious, animals like the ox, rooster, and monkey are expected to fare well in this Chinese zodiac year of the snake. The pig, however, might need to take things a little slower. Feng Shui is all about “cures” and what can help any of you who might be born in a pig year is to carry a monkey talisman. The monkey is a snake ally, so it helps deflect any negative snake vibe.

Manifesting in the Year of the SnakeThis year’s energy is perfect for experiencing more joy and lightening up. I mentioned how learning about this was so synchronistic because I’m launching a new program, the day after Chinese New Year, on February 4th called The Magic Hour.

The Magic Hour is all about tapping into joy and community as ways to spark spiritual growth and manifestation. The Chinese zodiac year of the snake calls for embracing lightness and joy, which echoes the core principles of my program! So amazing! Learn more here if you are ready to approach manifesting and spirituality with a more playful, fun approach.

Learn more from Kim about Feng Shui for business

Kim emphasized daily practices that can help you harness positive energy this year. None of these are radical or new, but they do produce results! Try meditating, doing good deeds, and practicing gratitude. I shared how in The Magic Hour program, the group will share blessings for others and the world as well.

Keep in mind, your energy plays a crucial role in what you attract into your life. When working to manifest your heart’s desire, it works best to come from a higher vibration. The energy of joy is wonderful for manifesting.

Embrace, Transform, and ShineAs the cosmic conversation wrapped up, the message was clear: This is the year to embrace change and the opportunity for transformation brought by the Yin Wood Snake. You can learn so much about yourself even when facing challenges.

The snake teaches that true power isn’t loud—it’s deliberate. It’s not about forcing change but allowing it to flow through you. Elevating your energy helps elevate the world around you, creating ripples of positivity.

Every challenge is an invitation. Every moment is a chance to elevate not just yourself, but the collective energy around you. We’re not just individual beings, we’re interconnected threads in a massive cosmic tapestry.

Your Transformation ToolkitLet’s review what was shared about the Yin Wood Snake Year:

  • Slow down
  • Listen to your inner voice
  • Clear out what’s not serving you
  • Create space for new possibilities

These aren’t just spiritual platitudes, they’re practical life strategies that work whether you believe in cosmic energy or not.

Chinese Zodiac Year of the SnakeThe Challenge!What one thing are you ready to shed this year? What old pattern, belief, or habit has been holding you back? What new introspective habit are you willing to take on? The Snake year is asking you to get real, get honest, and get moving.

Start small. Meditate for five minutes a day. Journal your thoughts. Have those uncomfortable conversations you’ve been avoiding. Clean out that junk drawer—both literally and metaphorically.

The Universe doesn’t require grand gestures. It responds to intention. To authenticity. To the willingness to show up and do the work.

Join me in embracing the energy of this year and looking forward to the magic it will bring. Let’s step into it together, transforming with grace and enjoying the journey. Cheers to a year filled with wisdom, healing, and newfound joys!

If you have a feeling about something in business or a challenge in life, trusting your intuition is a must. I talk about why you should trust your gut which will not lead you astray. That’s what your ego does!

Inner Wisdom Solves ProblemsTrusting your inner wisdom is what drives me and why I work with people who need to solve problems or have business issues. No matter how much information and data you collect, there is rarely enough ideal information to make a solid decision.

Somehow there’s always a bit of guess work. You can make a pro and con list. You can make a grid that examines all your options. But ultimately, intuition eliminates the guessing by using this innate resource. That’s why your intuition can really save your butt, your bank account, and even your heart.

This week I am sharing this super fun interview published by my good friend Megan Mary’s on her Women’s Dream Enlightenment podcast.

My Spiritual JourneyWe discuss my journey from business consultant to becoming a love coach and then an intuitive guide. I talk about how I have gone about integrating intuition, dreams, Akashic Records, and past lives into my work. I also offer energy healing and bioenergetic clearing that works amazingly well to help you know your next step, move forward by taking action.

Trusting My GutLater, I share personal stories about how trusting my gut and relying on intuition has been invaluable in my business. I’ve made some very big decisions that went against how things looked on paper. I left money sitting on the table, as they say, which went against all logic.

But I totally trusted myself. Months later, the truth came out and I discovered that these choices were solid decisions that served me very well. There have been no missteps resulting from relying on my inner wisdom. It is tried and true method for decision making, and a proven resource that has never let me down yet!

I also recounted how dreams guided me since this is Megan Mary’s favorite topic. Figuring out what my dreams are telling me is a lot of fun and incredibly helpful. It’s not always easy, but it’s worth giving it a try. This is another place where trusting your intuition comes into play – through your subconscious mind and dreams.

Sneak Peak of My BookIn addition I spoke a little about my upcoming book with the working title Conversations on the Inner Plane – How to Talk to Anyone or Anything Intuitively. I have talked with people who have passed, fictional characters, historical individuals, as well as deities, faeries, plants, animals, and even fire!

I give some practical advice on strengthening intuition with a couple of very simple tips to work with. I’m always willing to help someone out working on developing and trusting your intuition.

Megan Mary and I had a lot of fun in this conversation and that is obvious as we converse easily and have a few good laughs. Being a guest on someone else’s podcast is a nice switch for me and I look forward to doing more of this in 2025.

Hope you enjoy and as always wishing you love and magic and thanks for listening!

Do you celebrate the mystical moon to leverage its cycles for spiritual growth and manifestation? Learn all about how to do that in this latest episode.

Work with the Moon’s CyclesThe moon’s journey from new to full and back again is a continuous cycle, representing the rhythms of life—beginnings, growth, completion, and renewal. Each phase offers an opportunity to work with specific energies:

New Moon – A time of darkness and introspection, the new moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle. It’s a time to plant seeds of intention, start new projects, and set goals.

Full Moon – Illuminated and powerful, the full moon represents culmination and release. This phase invites reflection, celebration of achievements, and letting go of what no longer serves.

Reflect & Let Go with the Full MoonThe full moon is a powerful phase for celebrating achievements, gaining clarity, and releasing anything that no longer aligns with your highest self.

Harness the mystical moon three ways:

1. Release and Let Go – The full moon is ideal for clearing your energy and releasing burdens. Write down what you want to let go of—negative thought patterns, toxic relationships, or old habits. Burn the paper in a safe setting, allowing the fire to transform and release these energies into the Universe.

2. Review Accomplishments – Take time to reflect on what you’ve accomplished and what you’re grateful for. Write these things down in a journal or speak them aloud under the moonlight. Gratitude shifts your energy and opens the door for more abundance.

3. Charge Crystals and Make Moon Water – Place your crystals under the moonlight to cleanse and recharge them. You can also make moon water by leaving a sealed jar of water outside or on a windowsill overnight. Use this energized water for drinking, rituals, or watering plants to carry the moon’s energy into your daily life.

Manifest with the New Moon1. Set Intentions – New moon energy is perfect for clarifying your goals and dreams. Take some time to journal about what you want to manifest in the coming weeks or months. Write your intentions as affirmations, focusing on what you want to attract rather than what you wish to avoid.

2. Create a Vision Board Visualize your intentions by creating a vision board. Gather images, words, and symbols that represent your goals and dreams. Arrange them on a board or in a digital format and place it somewhere you’ll see it regularly. This visual reminder will keep your intentions at the forefront of your mind.

3. Meditate and Reflect – Meditation during the new moon can help you connect with your inner self and the Universe. Sit in a quiet space, light a candle, and focus on your breath. Visualize your intentions taking root and growing stronger with each breath you take. Connect with your spirit guides, angels, or higher self and request their help.

Follow the Lunar PhasesWhile the new moon and full moon each offer distinct energies, combining rituals for both phases can create a balanced and holistic approach to honoring the mystical moon’s cycles.

Here’s how you can integrate these practices into your life:

1. Track the Moon’s Phases – Keep a lunar calendar to track the moon’s phases and align your activities with its energy. This awareness helps you stay connected to the natural rhythms of life.

2. Create a Lunar Journal – Document your intentions during the new moon and your reflections during the full moon. Over time, you’ll notice patterns, progress, and areas where you can grow.

3. Host a Moon Circle – Gather friends or loved ones to celebrate the moon’s cycles together. Share intentions, perform rituals, and support each other’s growth. A moon circle fosters community and deepens the collective energy of your practices.

Honor the Mystical Moon’s WisdomThe moon’s cycles remind you of the ever-changing nature of life. By celebrating the new moon and full moon, you can align with these rhythms, creating space for growth, renewal, and transformation.

Whether you’re setting intentions under the darkness of the new moon or releasing old patterns under the brilliance of the full moon, these practices can bring greater mindfulness and balance to your life.

The next time the moon begins its cycle, take a moment to pause and honor its magic. By connecting with the moon’s energy, you’re also connecting with ancient wisdom that has guided humanity for generations. Celebrate the moon’s cycles, and let its light guide you on your soul’s path.

Do we need to create the New Earth or will it just happen to us? This is the big question I explore with my guest, MarBeth Dunn, in this week’s deep, eye-opening episode.

Buzz about the New EarthThere’s a lot of buzz these days about the “New Earth.” If you’ve been on YouTube or social media, you’ve probably seen theories about some big split happening—a divide where people end up on totally different paths. Some experts even describe it as two parallel realities where certain people no longer interact or even see each other.

Bashar, channeled by Daryl Anka, compares the New Earth coming to having two trains on separate tracks. The catch? You’ve got to pick your train fast because they’re leaving the station soon and you won’t get to change tracks later.

Honestly, I find this idea of a split a little daunting—and, to be real, it just doesn’t sit right with me. Isn’t 5D supposed to be about unity and leaving the duality of 3D behind? How does that jive with this notion of separation?

When I hear about these predictions, I can’t help but wonder – aren’t we supposed to be moving away from “us vs. them” thinking? That’s when I asked MarBeth for her take. And, of course, we explored how this same mindset shows up in everyday life—like our divisive politics here in the U.S., where “my way or the highway” seems to rule the day.

Why Separation Doesn’t WorkFor me, the idea of separation doesn’t make sense and feels counterproductive. Like in politics, if differing beliefs divide us so much that families can’t even share a holiday meal, is that really progress?

MarBeth and I both see unity as the way forward. The whole idea of splitting into groups on divergent “trains” feels less like ascension and more like elitism. To truly embrace the New Earth, it seems to us that unity has to be front and center—not separation.

Gratitude Fosters UnityAs MarBeth pointed out, real progress starts with finding ways to connect, even when we don’t agree. She’s deeply inspired by A Course in Miracles, as a long term student and teacher of this work. The Course reminds us that “we all need to go together.” That vision of unity isn’t something that will just arrive or happen to us—it’s something we create through our everyday thoughts and actions.

One simple but powerful practice to create unity and positivity is focusing on gratitude. Shifting our attention from what divides us to what connects us also naturally raises our vibration. And as MarBeth and I agree, gratitude is one key to harmony.

By prioritizing connection and appreciation, we start creating the kind of world we all want to live in from the inside.

Are World Peace and Inner Peace Related?

Words, Blessings, and the Ripple EffectAnother positive action we explored is the power of words and blessings. Words carry energy, and they set intentions that ripple outward to others around us.

MarBeth shared a beautiful practice she uses: choosing a word as a guide for her life. Words like “unity” or “serenity” can become focal points, helping us live more intentionally.

I shared a practice I’ve been experimenting with – sending blessings to others. Whether it’s family, friends, or even strangers, offering blessings sets a positive energy in motion.

According to MarBeth, one of the Universal Laws states giving and receiving are the same. So, when you bless someone else, that energy comes back to you! How cool is that? Blessings act like a boomerang and the sending benefits as well.

MarBeth also talked about her initiative, Ten Million for World Peace, which organized meditations focused on peace in the Middle East. Back in 2018, MarBeth conducted her own social experiment, gathering a group to meditate on Peace in this troubled area. They saw incredible results—a measurable 20% drop in violence during the time of the experiement. This is proof that collective intention can create real, tangible change.

Finding Common GroundWe also touched on some incredible stories of finding common ground in unexpected ways. One study brought gay liberal women into the homes of deeply religious conservative men. The goal? To foster understanding and connection. And it worked! These individuals found commonality and even became friends.

(I couldn’t find this research but I did find this NY Times article about “A Republican and a Democrat Sit Across From Each Other…” The focus is an initiative called “One Small Step,” which tackles political polarization by facilitating conversations between people with opposing views.)

What a beautiful reminder that when we’re open to possibility, unity isn’t just achievable—it’s transformative.

MarBeth also mentioned Dolores Cannon’s work with Nostradamus, who foresaw a future of peace if humanity could survive the challenges of the 1990s. He believed we could create 1,000 years of harmony by meditating with the intention of unifying the world. It’s wild to think about the potential we hold to shape our reality.

Each Moment Offers a ChoiceAt the end of the day, it all comes down to our choices. In every moment, we can choose unity over separation, love over fear, and connection over division.

By embracing these choices, we raise the collective vibration of humanity and move closer to the New Earth we’ve been dreaming of.

Thank you, MarBeth, for such an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation. It’s through these kinds of exchanges that we begin to imagine—and create—a more harmonious world.

Are you curious about what the year 2025 has in store for you from a numerology perspective? In this special year – end episode, you’ll get an exciting glimpse into what this upcoming year might mean for both you and the world. Plus, you’ll discover how to calculate and understand your personal number for the year as well.

My research included these two articles:

https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2025-numerology-meaning

https://www.russh.com/2025-predictions-according-to-numerology

Understanding Numerology for 2025As we stand on the brink of 2025, it’s fascinating to note that this is a nine year, which signifies the end of a cycle. That’s because when you add the digits of 2025 together, 2 + 0 + 2 + 5, you get nine. But what exactly does a nine year signify?

Numerology tells us it’s a time for closure and reflection. It’s about bringing projects and sometimes relationships to completion. Seeing life from a higher viewpoint, it’s also a profound year for spiritual alignment and realizing collective growth and the good of the whole.

According to numerology experts, a nine year encourages us to consider a shift towards generosity and humanitarianism. It’s all about making a difference in the bigger picture and helping to create positive change.

Personal Numerology for 2025So, what does this mean for you personally? To find out the number for the year that’s personal for you, just add your birth month and day to 2025. For example, if you’re like me with a birthday on January 8th, you would add 1+8+2+0+2+5 = 18 which added together is 9. My personal year is also nine, matching the collective energy.

Based on how your digits add up, here’s what the other numbers mean:

1 – A year for new beginnings and fresh ideas. It symbolizes a brand new chapter, setting the stage for new opportunities.

2 – Centered around relationships, it’s a time for connecting, fostering, and evaluating the connections in your life.

3 – Emphasis on creativity, perfect for diving into new creative pursuits or expressing yourself artistically.

4 – Focused on organization and structure, this number signifies a time to plan, set long-term goals, and build a strong foundation.

5 – An invitation to seek freedom and adventure, to explore and break ties with what no longer serves you.

6- A time for personal growth and self-reflection, nurturing relationships, and developing a sense of balance and harmony.

7 – A year dedicated to introspection and wisdom, offering a chance for personal insight and deeper understanding.

8 – The number of ambition and abundance, bringing a focus on realizing goals and finding balance between the material and spiritual realms.

With these numbers in mind, 2025 invites introspection and action, encouraging you to align your deeds with your core values.

New Year’s Eve ManifestingWith New Year’s Eve just around the corner, there’s no better time to start thinking about your intentions for 2025. One ritual I find deeply powerful is manifesting my desires by writing them down and ceremonially burning the list.

This transformative act of burning the paper symbolizes releasing old energies and drawing in new, aligned intentions. Your desires about letting go and manifesting new things are sent out to the Universe on the smoke, alerting your helpers in spirit like angels, spirit guides, ancestors and more of your wishes.

I recommend you consider what truly makes you happy beyond the typical kind of goals like career or fitness. What would make you smile and how do you want to feel? Do you want to feel cherished, connected to nature, or begin a spiritual journey? Reflect on the deeper aspirations that will help you feel satisfied and fulfilled.

As 2024 comes to a close, take a moment to breathe in the love and magic that surrounds you. Remember, the energy of 2025 is about spiritual growth and contributing to something greater than yourself.

May this year bring you prosperity, joy, and the courage to live out your deepest truths. Happy New Year—and here’s to 2025 being a year full of love and magic for all!

In this episode, discover the unforgettable magical moments of 2024 that my friend Marla Martenson and I enjoyed. We had so much FUN discussing mediumship, connecting with our mothers in spirit, animal communication, and more!

A little about Marla Martenson – She is a matchmaker, coach, energy healer, tarot reader, and is diving deep into mediumship. We told the tales of some extraordinary experiences and mystical stories that shaped 2024 for both of us.

Mediumship and AncestorsWe kicked off the conversation with Marla sharing a story about a seance she attended at a metaphysical store in Los Angeles (The Green Man Store). During the session, they connected with spirit, and Marla received a poignant message from her grandmother Rose, urging her to turn the page on her grief about her mom.

The message for her was spot on and this encounter was a profound reminder of the close connections between our world and the spiritual realm. Our ancestors really are right there for us. And after this session, the sadness has been lifting.

For me, the magic of 2024 also included a memorable mediumship reading that Marla did for me! She connected with my mother, who showed her the image of a light switch. Neither of us knew what that meant, but that night when I shut off the light, it flicked back on instantly! I figured this was my mom who next, turned on my Kindle!

Talk about magical moments – the whole thing made me laugh and comforted me knowing my mom who has passed is still around. These experiences serve as powerful reminders that the unseen bonds that link us to those we hold dear but have left the earth plane, still do exist.

Animal CommunicationThe conversation took an intriguing turn when I recounted a story about a barking dog at the beach. After a peaceful afternoon of sun nad surf, as I walked back to my car, the dog that always barked at me started up.

Suddenly, in my mind I heard the instruction to tell the dog, “I love you.” That seemed completely crazy, but I did it and much to my surprise, the dog stopped barking. In fact, it didn’t bark at me again for the rest of the season. This was certainly one of the year’s most magical moments.

I wouldn’t say animal communication is my strong point, but it did make a profound impression of how animals need love and acknowledgment, not just humans.

Shaman & Plant Medicine JourneysMarla and I shifted to talk about our spiritual journeys. I had taken a powerful shaman course called Animal Allies with Kerri Hummingbird which was amazing. On one journey in the series, I connected with the spirit of jaguar, who cut me to ribbons, put me back together, and gave me four meaningful gifts including eagle feathers, a quartz crystal, corn kernels, and a new heart.

Marla has had many plant medicine journeys over the years, which have opened her to other dimensions and given her transformative insights. She explained how these trips are not for the faint of heart, and the journey she did in 2024 with her Shaman Riz was tough, she said, but the insights were completely worth it.

Journeys reveal layers of your consciousness and encourage you to embrace change and healing. Both Marla and I have learned a lot from these deep and insightful experiences.

Synchronicities and Cutting CordsOther magical moments included the synchronicities that occur when we think about someone, and they then reach out to us. Marla shared how two friends she hadn’t been in touch with, but thought about recently, just reached out to her.

I mentioned how I always know when these two friends in particular are calling on the phone, before I look at the caller ID. Does that ever happen to you too?

We also touched on the importance of clearing your energy and cutting cords that connect you to others. This is particularly good to do after conflicts or after being in crowded spaces. Using simple rituals, like calling upon Archangel Michael, can help you release any energetic ties that no longer serve you or weigh you down.

As we journey through the year, it’s beautiful to acknowledge these magical moments of synchronicity and transformation. They remind us of the web of life and energy we are all a part of.

Fulfillment and FunMarla’s insights into personal fulfillment resonated deeply with me. It’s so good to seek fulfillment in your pursuits, allowing this to illuminate your path and help you move into being your true self. Embracing your own luminous presence can lead to a profound impact on your life,those around you and the world.

We talked about the fulfilling nature of sharing our joy and inspiration. For example, Marla makes daily videos, which not only uplift others but also herself. She creates them simply because they are fun vs. marketing for her business, and she’s always happy to hear what the viewers enjoyed.

A Magical Card ReadingTo wrap up our delightful conversation, we drew cards for the upcoming holiday season. I picked a card from the gorgeous Fairy Forest Oracle Cards that conveyed a message of shining hope and a positive future. It reinforced the theme of magical transformation and optimism.

Marla picked cards that highlighted fulfillment, luminosity, and evolution, perfectly encapsulating our 2024 magical moments and personal and spiritual growth throughout this year.

As we conclude another year and look forward 2025, we hope you embrace your own magical experiences and share in the joy and love surrounding you. Celebrating these moments of connection and transformation keeps the spark in your everyday life!

Wishing you a magical holiday season and an enchanting year!

Ever wonder about the story behind Santa? I’m pulling back the curtain on what many don’t know about Santa and the Goddess of Winter Solstice in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

The jolly man in a red suit flying through the sky and dropping gifts isn’t quite what he seems. In fact, his story has deep roots intertwined with myths, folklore, and the winter solstice—dating way back before Christmas as we know it today.

The Surprising Origins of SantaDid you know that Santa’s tale is borrowed from a myriad of myths and legends, particularly those that were female-oriented? That’s right! Our beloved Santa owes his origin to the ancient Goddess of Winter. These goddesses were believed to bring back the sun after the long, dark days of winter.

One enlightening discovery was about reindeer. Contrary to the tales of Rudolph and his male companions, the female reindeer actually lead the herds during the harsh winter months. In fact, the males lose their antlers for winter!

These insights come from Danielle Proham Olson’s wonderfully researched blog, GatherVictoria.com. Her holiday posts paint a vivid picture of winter traditions linked to sacred goddesses and the solstice. Listen to the first podcast I did about Santa being a woman, relying on her research

Fascinating Winter Solstice MythsLet’s delve into some fascinating winter solstice myths from around the globe. This year, a legend from Italy came to my attention on Instagram. Two Italian men were telling the tale of La Befana, a witch who would swoop through the sky on her broom to drop gifts down chimneys.

This tradition is celebrated on the Christian holiday of Epiphany, January 6th, and was when people exchanged gifts before World War ll, instead of on Christmas as others do.

Take the Nordic goddess Beavi, a sun deity associated with fertility who traveled in a sleigh made of reindeer bones. In Lapland, ceremonial hats from medicine women were discovered, adorned in the familiar red and white that Santa sports today.

Across different cultures living close to the Arctic Circle, the Deer Mother was revered for bringing the sun back on the Winter Solstice, and taking care of the herds, vital for any tribe’s survival.

Japan’s Amaterasu is the Sun Goddess, aligned with the winter solstice. Her retreat into a cave for winter was the reason for darkness and the sun’s return happened as she came out of the cave.

Winter Goddesses Across the GlobeIn Germany, the Goddess of Winter was Perchta, who rewarded good children just like LeBefana, by dropping treats down hte chimney.

Another Norse Goddess of Winter is Frigg, who influenecd the length and severity of winter. She was often shown holding a spindle which is used for weaving as she was in charging of weaving the wheel of the year, emphasizing the cyclical return of light and life.

From Celtic lands, the Goddess of Winter is Cailleach, also called the Winter Hag. She was the one who brought the snow and cold, symbolizing transformation and the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

Last but not least, is the North American Hopi tribe with the Creator Goddess, Spider Woman. She was the focus of the annual Soyal Festival for the winter solstice, which celebrated the sun’s victory over winter’s darkness. She spun a web that connected everyone.

I was struck by how these narratives echo a shared understanding of light, renewal, and connection to the earth. These myths feel like threads tying us to our ancestors, revealing their ways of relating to the natural world.

As Christianity spread, many of the pagan traditions were absorbed, reshaped, and sometimes suppressed by new religious narratives and authorities. Yet, they persist today, whispering the original tales of light-bringing goddesses through history and culture.

There are more Goddesses of Winter which you can hear about in the podcast including Isis, Tonantzin, Lutzelfrau, Lusse, and Skadi!

Manifesting on the Winter SolsticeThe winter solstice is also a potent day for setting intentions and manifesting! This day marks the beginning of growing daylight, providing a six-month period to nurture your dreams and aspirations.

There’s a favorite manifesting technique I share at the end of the podcast, so listen till the end to discover what to try on your own.

Ancient Tales of the Goddess of WinterFrom the resonant wisdom of winter goddesses to the empowering energy of manifestation, this journey is an exciting exploration of your spiritual heritage. As you rediscover these ancient stories, you not only learn about the world but also about your shared journey with it. These tales, buried and uncovered like ancient artifacts, help illuminate the path forward.

If you’re as fascinated by these myths and spiritual teachings as I am, check out the full episode and explore more about the winter solstice’s lesser-known secrets. You never know, these ancient whispers might just spark the manifestation of your dreams!

Happy holidays, and be sure to breathe in all the love and magic the season has to offer.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, my guest is a free-spirited artist and wanderer at heart, committed to self-discovery through feminine archetypes, art, and her nomadic lifestyle, traveling the globe.

7 Feminine ArchetypesWhen I stumbled upon Anna Heimkreiter’s work on the web, I was immediately drawn to her beautiful art and the intriguing concept of feminine archetypes. Her website offered a feminine archetypes quiz to discover which one resonates with you. Turns out I am the Huntress archetype. No surprise there, given my love for freedom and independence!

Anna discovered these feminine archetypes on her journey of self-discovery and artistic expression. They are symbolic representations of divine feminine traits and roles, offering insights into diverse expressions of femininity that can guide personal growth.

She focuses on just seven archetypes, each one holding its own unique beauty and complexity:

  1. Mother: Loving, nurturing, warm and supportive
  2. Maiden: Curious, growth-oriented, innocent, and playful
  3. Huntress: Independent and free, strong, and courageous
  4. Mystic: Intuitive, insightful, calm, and balanced
  5. Queen: Leader, personal power, confident, and uplifting
  6. Sage: Self-mastery, clarity, rational, and wise
  7. Lover: Passionate, intimate, magnetic, and sensual

Exploring ArchetypesAnna’s journey into the world of feminine archetypes began five years ago when a friend introduced her to masculine archetypes. This sparked her curiosity, and she went on to delve deeply into understanding the feminine side.

She resonated with the concept of the seven archetypes and found inspiration through Jean Shinoda Bolen’s book, Goddesses in Older Women, which explains these archetypes in connection to Greek mythology.

Her exploration led her to create an illustration series representing seven archetypes, the 7 feminine archetype quiz, and her archetype workbooks for self-exploration. Anna believes these feminine models help us understand ourselves better and inspire growth and empowerment.

A Roadmap for Personal GrowthWe discussed how these archetypes can provide a roadmap for growth, for reflection on your developed traits or as aspirational models. Anna shared how embracing the lover archetype, which felt distant to her, enriched her life. Focusing on the strengths and shadows of these archetypes will help you understand your wounds and heal them.

Anna’s art and her explorations of the archetypes are closely entwined, providing an avenue for creative self-expression and growth. Creativity is more than just producing work; it’s a path for introspection and connection to your emotions.

Her Independent PathAnna’s nomadic lifestyle has been inspired by the Huntress’s desire for freedom and adventure. Her travels started young, with long trips during her studies that spiraled into longer wanderings. Meeting seasoned travelers and experiencing various cultures fueled her desire to live without geographical confines.

Her experiences also include spiritual practices like meditation and yoga, which she explored more deeply during her time in Thailand. Anna’s spiritual path has included psychedelics as well, which have taught her about connection and introspection.

I was curious about how Anna supports her nomadic lifestyle. She explained that she now works remotely in marketing and her art provides additional income. By living simply and traveling slowly, she keeps her expenses surprisingly low.

Workbooks and WisdomAnna has developed a series of workbooks that delve into each of the seven feminine archetypes. These resources combine her love for introspection, psychology, and creativity. Each workbook provides exercises, journaling prompts, and frameworks to explore the archetypes, including their light and shadow sides.

Through these carefully crafted exercises, Anna guides you to discover insights about patterns you harbor, and areas for potential growth. Designed to bridge the gap between curiosity and self-awareness, the workbooks nurture a unique journey for each reader.

Reflect on the JourneyReflecting on her journey, Anna remains open to what’s next while staying grounded in all that she’s experienced. Her creative and spiritual path continues to unfold, inspiring those who encounter her work. Anna Heimkreider most definitely lives by her own design.

In this episode, I share a fascinating past life reading for my client, Bella. She came to me feeling stuck and uncertain about how to move forward and was seeking guidance that would help her get moving. This was a wise choice because exploring past lives often reveals patterns and insights that influence the present.

Standing at the CrossroadsBella was at a crossroads, contemplating many diverse interests which left her feeling scattered and overwhelmed. She was searching for clarity, hoping that understanding her past lives would light her path forward. That’s why she came to me for a past life reading.

After chatting, I entered the Akashic Records to uncover Bella’s soul history. The vision began at a lively carnival, reminiscent of the early 1900s in Europe. I saw Bella as a teenager, bouncing from activity to activity, embodying the Romani spirit.

She had talents in performance, card reading, and acrobatics—yet she showed a pronounced fear of committing to one path, afraid of missing out on others.

Lives Without ChoiceThis fear stemmed from a number of lives where she focused on being of service. She was a nun several times, where her choices were well-defined and highly limited. This meant her personal desires took a backseat to the steep obligations of her religious life.

Bella had experienced many such lifetimes across different cultures, spending most of her time in devotion. That’s why she lacked the freedom and skill to choose anything else. In other words, she had very little practice with decision making. While these roles enriched her soul with wisdom, they also left her unprepared for the abundance of choices she faced today.

Skills from Your Past LivesExploring more deeply, additional similar lives emerged. Bella had walked this Earth as a Buddhist monk as well as a devotee in other religions. However, one life did stand out, when she worked closely with plants in ancient Egypt. She held significant knowledge about agriculture, plants, and earth magic.

The messages from her past life reading were clear—embrace the innate talents garnered through several incarnations with the plant world. Bella possessed a natural connection to plants, herbs, and potions for healing. Today, she has the opportunity to consciously choose a path with newfound freedom.

Career Options vs. HobbiesGiven this latest information, Bella saw her struggle more as a gift of choice rather than a burden. While she has many interests like painting, singing, and dancing, her inherent skills in herbalism and plants seemed the most relevant to earn a living now. Then she could pursue creative activities as hobbies and enjoy her talents rather than trying to support herself with them.

The past life reading offered Bella the chance to see why she struggled to choose a direction for her career. She also learned the importance of distinguishing between work and play. In this way, she can work at something she’s already good at, without abandoning her creative pursuits.

Decide & Get MovingThe most crucial insight from the session was the need to get started. Rather than continuing to deliberate, it was essential to take that first step with courage. Moving forward is not about patience as much as it is about doing something.

By reflecting on her past, Bella realized she could leverage her ancient wisdom to craft a vibrant, purposeful life right now. The journey through her past with a past life reading reminded her that embracing choice and making decisions helps you get unstuck and moving again. When you start taking action, things tend to start falling into place.

Before I get into the podcast topic of what are you grateful for today, first I want to share some big news. Can you believe it’s already been three years since I started this podcast?

Over 200 Episodes!I was quite surprised to find more than 200 episodes have been published! (I don’t number them so I lost track – LOL.) I’m having a moment of immense gratitude, especially with the Thanksgiving holiday in the US, just around the corner.

I truly appreciate each listener who has joined me weekly on this magical journey. When I hear from you, it fills my heart with joy and reminds me of the incredible listeners I have. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support and for embracing my suggestions and insights.

Now, in the spirit of gratitude, I want to dive into my personal gratitude practice—how I’ve simplified it and how you can incorporate it into your life.

The Art of the Gratitude JournalGratitude is more than a journaling exercise – it’s a way of life! Expressing your gratitude and writing about what you are grateful for today is a strong way to lift your spirits and vibration.

You want to get beyond simply listing what you appreciate—it’s about feeling the joy and optimism that gratitude inspires.

I noticed a significant change in my outlook when I started noting these small yet wonderful daily blessings in my gratitude journal.

So how do I do it? I write in the morning, capturing significant and everyday moments. Whether it’s the sunshine after a rain storm or a fun conversation with a friend, it’s important to recognize these smaller bits of joys.

By pushing yourself to appreciate new things consistently, your capacity for gratitude deepens. This simple gratitude practice can enhance and shift your life perspective remarkably.

Practice Gratitude DailyAnother step in my practice involves taking action and self-care—what I call filling my love tank.” It’s vital to acknowledge the actions you take daily and the ways you cherish yourself.

Anything positive can be self-care, from a day at the beach, or a call with a dear friend, to any activity that feeds your soul. These moments fill your self-care tank and enhance gratitude. Every day, jot down these actions that bring you joy alongside your gratitude list.

Don’t forget affirmations! At the bottom of my journal page, I write affirmations that reflect what I’m manifesting or aspiring toward in my life. These powerful statements act as reminders of the goals I’m working on. And, like gratitude, they help me maintain a positive outlook.

Share Gratitude with OthersSharing gratitude with others can be profoundly connecting. Tell people in your life what you appreciate about them. Let them know why you’re grateful they are in your life. Acknowledging something little, even their smile or laugh, can lift someone’s spirit.

Every night, my husband and I share five things we’re grateful for before drifting off to sleep.

This bedtime ritual is not only a nice way to end our day positively, but also strengthens our bond. If you’re single, no worries! You can do this on your own or with your kids, or even your pet. The goal is to keep gratitude flowing.

What are you grateful for today. Take time to stop and think about it. Remember, you don’t need to strive for perfection in your practice. If you miss a few days, just be gentle with yourself. Gratitude practice isn’t meant to be another thing on your to-do list, but instead a joyful ritual.

Customize your gratitude to fit your lifestyle. Maybe a post it note on your bathroom mirror works better for you than a full journal entry. The key is to choose what resonates with you and keeps you engaged.

Expand Your GratitudeIf you’re having a tough day, try this go-to gratitude exercise. Write down 25 things you’re grateful for. Doing this shifts your focus to the abundance in your life. Once you start creating the list, you’ll find loads of options to include and appreciate.

Get more specific by including things you love about different rooms in your house, or broader themes such as gratitude towards your career or relationships.

This exercise helps shift your frequency to a higher vibration, unlocking more positivity and opening you up to future blessings. It’s a profound practice to ask what are you grateful for today, nurture your heart, and cultivate an appreciative mindset.

Thanksgiving and GratitudeThanksgiving is the time to embrace gratitude and shift your perspective if needed. Recognize the good that often goes unnoticed in your life. It’s always easy to see what’s lacking and going poorly.

However, when you spend time focusing on what’s working in your world, you put your attention on the positive. As you know from the Law of Attraction, like attracts like and what you put your attention on grows.

More than ever, the world needs more positive energy. When you consider – what are you grateful for today, you add to the positive energy that ripples out to everyone you come in contact with and then out to the world.

Ever felt the itch to change or reinvent yourself at 50+, but thought maybe it’s too late? In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I had a fascinating conversation with Wendy Battles, the brilliant host of the Reinvention Rebels podcast.

The Role of Intuition in ReinventionWendy is a beacon of inspiration, sharing stories about women aged 50 to 90, who’ve dared to reinvent themselves. We talked about how intuition plays a huge role in personal transformation. Wendy explained that going with the nudges she got was essential on her own journey.

While still employed, Wendy trained to be a health coach and started this business. However, after a few years, she realized it wasn’t making her happy or her true calling.

This revelation came through her intuition. She emphasized the importance of listening deeply to yourself, suggesting meditation and spending time in silence, so you can tune into your inner guidance. If you’re thinking about change and want to reinvent yourself, you’ve got to find that inner wisdom.

Hear more about how to use intuition in this fun episode!

Think Big and Figure It OutThe phrase, “Everything is figureoutable,” popularized by Marie Forleo, means a lot to Wendy. The point is, whether or not you know how to create what you want, you can figure it out when you give it a shot and put your mind to it.

We exchanged stories about how this mindset helped both of us manifest our dreams. Both of us ventured into podcasting without prior experience. She trusted the process, took courses, and connected with resources that helped her succeed. Her actions proved that an open mind and perseverance can make the impossible possible.

Wendy also believes in the power of sharing her dreams with others. By voicing her plans for a podcast, she found unexpected support and connections that made her journey easier.

I echoed this discovery, recounting my own experience of attracting a digital printer when I was publishing my first book. The Universe has a funny way of aligning things when you put your intentions out there.

Learn How to Reinvent Yourself at 50+Wendy has had the privilege of interviewing many inspirational women on her podcast. One standout story was about Dixie Lincoln Nichols, who trusted her intuition to leave a secure teaching job and embark on a new business venture.

Dixie co-founded the Life in the Paws Menopause Festival, creating a community for Black women to discuss menopause. This initiative, born from intuition and the desire to serve, demonstrates the power of following your inner knowing. Reinventing herself gave Dixie new purpose and meaning in her life.

Embrace Your Unique PathWendy’s podcast stories highlight how embracing your unique path is vital for success. Her guests often find that their deepest truths come from within. Their journeys are guided by intuition and subtle nudges from the Universe, leading to a more fulfilling and authentic life.

These tales of how to reinvent yourself at 50+, remind you that it’s never too late to shift gears and pursue your true calling. That’s when she decided to shift again and explore being a podcast host which brings us to her great success today.

This heartwarming episode conveyed the joy and magic of reinvention at any age. Wendy’s podcast brings inspirational stories to the forefront, encouraging listeners to embrace change and explore their potential.

Tap into Your IntuitionWhen you reinvent yourself by following your intuition, it will lead you to unexpected and rewarding paths. While this path might not be for the faint of heart, Wendy admits that transformation is a powerful and enriching journey, open to anyone willing to tune into their own wisdom. Embrace it and enjoy the adventure!

Whether your desire for change is a whisper or a loud yell, remember the answers and guidance lie within yourself.

BIOAs the host of the Reinvention Rebels podcast, Wendy Battles interviews brave and unapologetic women, 50-90 years young, who have boldly reinvented themselves to see new possibilities. Wendy shines a light on the notion that we can reinvent ourselves at any age or any stage and is helping to disrupt limiting beliefs about the value of aging women in our society.

Wendy believes we reinvent from the inside out – that all the answers we need are already within us. It’s her job to help tease them out. At 59, Wendy is a Reinvention Rebel herself, having reinvented herself many times during her life including as a management consultant, voice actor, and health coach.

Have you ever felt like you’re teetering on the edge of an emotional cliff and you might be ready to topple over? That’s when you are most likely to reach out and call a friend.

I’ve been there! Who hasn’t? That’s one time when you really need an intuitive buddy.

What Is an Intuitive Buddy?A friend who can tune into spirit and the energy to see the truth of what’s happening to you. They understand your fears, but have this uncanny ability to tell you if they are unnecessary.

This friend calms you down and gets you off that cliff edge like no one else can. That’s because they know you spiritually, not just on the normal day-to-day, physical plane.

We Get the Same Answers!Let me tell you a story about my intuitive buddy Carrie. We’ve been supporting each other for more than 30 years. When I’m freaked out, she’s the person I call. I know I’ll get true and reliable intuitive insight. She’ll give it to me straight and I’ll be able to breathe again.

How did we get here? Well it did take some time. Now, with 30 years in, we are so tuned into each other, we connect with each other’s guides and read each other’s energy. We often get the very same intuitive information and answers.

This past Sunday, Carrie called me in a massive panic. Her one-year-old grandchild was super sick, in the hospital, and having trouble breathing. A scary moment for any grandmother. But before she started to explain, I could tell she was extremely upset and on the edge. I heard the answer she sought prior to her even asking me the question. “He’s OK.”

I didn’t blurt that out though. I let her tell me the whole story and when she was done, I relayed the message, “He’s OK.” She began to relax and breath normally again.

In addition, I heard he’d be better by noon, but I kept that to myself. Checking in later in the afternoon, I asked if there was any change and she said yes, things had started turning around. Phew!

Working with a PartnerThis is the joy, benefit, and marvel of having an intuitive buddy. You need one. Everyone needs one. How can you create this strong supportive connection? PRACTICE YOUR INTUITION TOGETHER.

Carrie and I have been getting together to talk about our lives and figure things out for 30 years. But even at the beginning, there was a connection. The more we worked together intuitively, the more reliable and amazing it got. We looked at past lives, where we were on the spiritual path, and talked about jobs, business, family, and more. Pretty much everything under the sun.

I have a couple of other friends I do this with and I also lead two groups. My time in these exchanges is always wonderful. I just love to support others intuitively and receive their support too.

From one-on-one interactions to group work, this is a powerful spiritual experience, tuning into and connecting with the soul, spirit guides, angels and more from the higher realms.

In this episode, I’m going to share 10 reasons why you need an intuitive buddy in your life. Some of these you may relate to better than others but each one is a powerful reason to find a spiritual partner and build your intuitive skills together:

  1. Talk You Off the EdgeWhen you’re overwhelmed, having someone to talk to is invaluable. Venting lets you get things off your chest. But what about resolving those issues? That’s where an intuitive buddy steps in.

Together, you can figure out what’s really going on. What’s driving you to feel a certain way? What’s the root cause, and what’s a good solution? Having someone who can spiritually connect with you can help bring clarity and solutions in ways you might not achieve alone.

  1. Gain ClarityWhen you’re in an emotional tailspin, it’s hard to see the forest for the trees. Emotions cloud your ability to tune in for yourself. That’s why having an intuitive buddy is essential – for these stressful times when you can’t get anywhere on your own. Trust me, it happens to the best of us, no matter how skilled or practiced.

I have a couple of long-term problems that come and go which are the worst when it comes to relying on my own intuition. I have so much baggage about these topics that I need help to see what’s happening clearly and untangle things.

When you work with a partner whom you trust, the clarity and insight they bring to the table is beyond helpful.

  1. Build TrustWorking with a partner not only helps you begin to trust your own intuition, but it also allows you to trust someone else’s too. Then there are those times when the answers you both received are so similar, you are awe struck. How could it be that you get the same answers? Nothing is better to build trust then when you have this type of thing occur. That’s how you know you are on the right track.

Today, Carrie and I laugh about how our answers are often so similar, we can almost speak for each other. Yet, there are also times when the input we get is surprisingly different and I’ll talk about that in a minute.

  1. Get ConfirmationWhen you are using your intuition, nothing is more helpful than the confirmation provided by someone else getting something similar. That’s when you can relax, breathe easier, and know that you’ve got this whatever it is.

Confirmation is hugely helpful in learning to trust your intuition and inner guidance system. We all need that kind of reinforcement. With practice, you will be able to see that you can trust the information you get. It takes time but it’s very worthwhile. And then, when you work with an intuitive buddy, that confirmation comes even more often. What a difference that can make!

  1. See Different PerspectivesThere is great value is seeing your situation from different angles. That’s another big reason why working with an intuitive buddy can be a game changer. We all get stuck in our own viewpoints and everyone has a blind spot or two.

Your intuitive buddy isn’t all wrapped up in the emotion of what has overtaken your life. Nope, they are neutral and this can be a tremendous help for seeing all sides of a problem. This gives you the chance to discover additional solutions and potentially come up with a solution you would never find on your own.

  1. Grow FasterGrowth is its own reward. But sharing the path to growth sure makes it a lot more fun! In addition, having the support of your intuitive buddy can help you get through situations more easily, faster, or at least feeling heard and validated.

I’m a champion of developing, honing and relying on your intuition for your own personal advancement. My focus is on the very practical aspects of what helps you move through life with more ease and grace whenever possible.

I’m all about what kind of practical advice will get me and you through the rough patch we’re facing right now and also tomorrow. I’m looking for ways to stay calm, maintain a positive outlook, be at peace, enjoy life, and feel certain that everything is working out perfectly.

There’s a lot more, so please listen to the podcast!

Ready for Halloween ghost stories that warm your heart? Dive into this episode of the Breathe Love and Magic podcast, with eerie tales that will make you smile.

The Origin of HalloweenBefore the story telling begins, let’s uncover Halloween’s ancient roots. Halloween comesfrom the Celtic festival Samhain, which marks the year’s end with a harvest celebration. It’s a time when the veil between our world and the spirit realm is at its thinnest. That’s why there are so many ghost stories!

This tradition has evolved over millennia but retains its essence of connecting the living with the spirits of the departed. What’s most fascinating is looking at the connection of other cultures that also honor ancestors at this time of year.

Honoring the Dead on 3 ContinentsThere’s a Hindu holiday called Diwali which is a five-day festival that celebrates the victory of good vs. evil. On day two, the ancestors are honored. How interesting that on the other side of the world, at the same time of year, they too are connecting with the spirits of the departed.

In addition, the Mexican Day of the Dead, is a combination of an ancient Aztec tradition with the All Souls Day brought by the Spanish, Catholic conquerors. Here too, the dead or those who have passed are celebrated and honored. So, this occurs on at least three continents that I know of!

The best time of year to communicate with spirit

Connecting with AncestorsI started the Halloween ghost stories with my own encounter – seeing my aunt at her funeral. As the casket was lowered, I noticed a woman sitting on the headstone to the left. Shockingly, I recognized her as my aunt, although she appeared much more youthful in a style that seemed like the late 1940s.

We didn’t speak but after the funeral came the bigger surprise. A photograph of my aunt looking exactly as I saw her in the cemetery was at my cousin’s home – a picture I had never seen! Talk about a shocker!

Here’s another one of my personal ghost stories. After my uncle passed, I went to visit my family, but there wasn’t a service. On my way back to my place, I suddenly felt the presence of others in my car!

It became clear that my uncle, and his parents (my grandparents) were traveling with me – sort of like spiritual hitchhikers. This unexpected experience totally unfamiliar but once I got used to the idea, it was nice to think they came for a visit. Talk about transcending the boundaries of life and death!

Comforting Ancestor VisitsOne listener recounted a sweet ghost story about her own godmother visiting. Her son had learned to climb out of his crib, and she’d gone into his room to see him standing there. She picked him up and got on the bed with him.

Suddenly, she felt the comforting presence of her godmother, which she found very reassuring, touching her leg, and then depressing the bed as she sat down next to her! She asked her godmother to please wake her if the baby needed attention. This sweet visitation ensured a restful night for both mother and child.

Linda and her husband went to Vermont to the family house for a weekend ski trip. That night, while in bed, she woke up smelling her father’s aftershave. He’d been gone for some time now and that was strange enough.

Next, she heard the crinkling of his favorite jacket, which caused her to open her eyes. There he was! Linda’s father stood in the room, telling her that he was doing well and everything was OK. Her father came to reassure her on what turned out to be the one-year anniversary of his death.

Signs from BeyondSometimes our ghostly ancestors provide signs of their presence. One listener went with her husband to visit her mother-in law. They cleaned up the patio making room for outdoor furniture, then went to purchase some just before the store closed.

The listener was paying for the furniture while her husband went to bring the truck to the front to load everything up. Just before her husband walked in the door, a coin dropped inexplicably out of nowhere. He felt this was a heartfelt message from his departed father. Encounters like these serve as wonderful reminders that our loved ones continue to watch over us.

I had a reading with my friend Marla, who is studying mediumship. She got my mom who shared a few things and then showed her the image of a light switch. Neither of us knew what this meant, and we just let it go.

That night in bed, as I shut off the light with the remote-control button, it mysteriously switched back on! I thought what the heck? But then I remembered Marla’s reading with my mom showing her the light switch.

This made me laugh and I acknowledged my mom’s visit. I shut of the light again and then my Kindle book turned on. Again, this made me laugh as my mom was making her presence known and showing me she was learning how to be a ghost.

Another Halloween Episode about Salem, MA and more with Marla!

Varying Reactions to VisitationsAnother listener described being tap on the shoulder by her late grandfather, as the entire family went to the home and stood around his favorite chair. She chided her brother who was the family prankster. She assumed he had done the tapping.

He strenuously denied this and ran to the other end of the house! Not everyone is thrilled with joy by visiting ancestors and loved ones who have passed.

Visiting AngelsDuring a recent funeral, my husband was asked to play the guitar and sing Amazing Grace with his nephew. This was very stressful for him because he doesn’t enjoy being a performer or all the attention. But he wanted to do it.

After the service ended, he and his nephew set themselves up at the front of the room and the idea came to me to call in the angels to support him. I closed my eyes and called Gabrielle for communication (and he plays the trumpet) and Michael for protection.

The next thing I knew I opened my eyes to see an angel behind my husband that wrapped his wings around him. Then four more angels popped into view (all in my mind’s eye). All five were in a line at the front of the room, facing the crowd.

What a surprise! I had never seen angels before and was totally thrilled with this experience. Honestly, it filled my heart with gratitude and brought tears to my eyes.

Ghost Stories Can Happen AnytimeWith Halloween being the time of year when the veil is at its thinnest between our reality and the other world, these ghost stories remind us that we can reach out and communicate. Stories of love, connection, and reassurance don’t only occur at this time of year, but this is when they are more frequent or easier to come by.

As you celebrate this Halloween, be open to the whispers and stories of the spirits and ancestors around you. Whether it’s through a feeling, a sign, or a flickering light, know that your loved ones are never far away. maybe this year, you’ll have your own Halloween ghost story to tell.

Trick or Treat and Happy Halloween to all!

Are you ready to manifest miracles and magic in your life? I did this in just one week, and it was easier than you think!

The Power of Miracles and MagicMiracles and magic might seem reserved for fairy tales, but what if you could experience them in your life? That’s what I talk about in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. I shared how I attracted these both last week and it continued in this week too!

A Blessing for MiraclesLast week was unbelievably magical, filled with synchronicities and epiphanies. The journey began with a simple daily blessing or prayer from Kyle Gray’s book, Raise Your Vibration. I adapted his prayer about miracles, infusing it with magic as well. Every day, I repeated this powerful blessing not knowing what would happen as a result.

Turns out my life opened to lots of unexpected magic and as the synchronicities piled up, I realized how miracles are naturally attracted to me. The more I believed this, the more my vibration rose.

The Big EpiphanyLast week I took a workshop about branding and messaging. Despite suggestions to include the word “spiritual” in my branding, I had big reservations. I preferred the word “mystical” in my messaging rather than “spiritual,” and this unbeknownst to me, created a roadblock that I could not see.

After the workshop I was telling my coach about what I came up with and I had this massive epiphany – I realized that insisting on avoiding the word “spiritual” was actually stopping the flow of the universe. It was time for me to stop focusing on what I didn’t want and to concentrate on what I do want. A classic spiritual lesson!

My Second Art ShowLast week I also had a painting in my second art show. I attended the opening with my husband but didn’t see many people I knew except this one artist Kiko who I spoke with briefly. He’s always friendly and fun.

Before leaving I noticed a painting and a photo of the artist – this was a woman named Cathy who had judged the show. I recognized her name from my town’s magazine. She’d been featured and they talked about her work and a painting group she had at her home.

Once outside the door, I saw several of the artists from the group I had joined, and I said hello but didn’t stay to chat with them. That was Thursday.

Sychronicities at the PondFriday, I went for a walk with my friend Tammy at this local park with a woodland path around a pond. You won’t believe who I ran into there -Cathy! Talk about how to manifest miracles and magic!

She’s the judge of the art show and the woman who has a painting group at her home. I had tried to start a painting group but was having trouble gathering people and had given up.

But there she was painting at the pond. I stopped to talk with her and discovered she still had the painting group! She invited me to join them. I was so excited. What an incredible synchronicity – quite a miracle seeing her there because we had never even met. I wouldn’t have known who she was if I hadn’t gone to the art show.

Fast forward to Saturday morning, I went to the diner for a late breakfast and who did I run into? Kiko! I said hello but went to sit down and order.

Later that day, I volunteered to babysit the art show, and they assigned two people for blocks of 2 hours. Guess who my partner was at the gallery? Kiko! We chatted for over 90-minutes, and it was incredibly fun. He’s so quick-witted and creative.

Manifesting GroupBut wait – there’s more manifesting miracles and magic from last week. I lead a Manifesting Power Hour group three times a month. At this week’s session we experimented with new techniques, inspired by the teachings of Neville Goddard. Each woman created a future memory of something they wanted to manifest. Then one by one, they shared their vision, and the entire group cheered to celebrate their future success.

My guides had given me an assignment to get excited about something and I had no idea what that would be. In fact, I found this instructon quite annoying. But suddenly, exciting things were popping up in my life and this manifesting group was one of them.

Miracles continued to find their way to me. We had super warm weather for mid October in Connecticut, allowing me to go to the beach four times this week! That’s crazy!

Plus, this week I went to the first painting group at Cathy’s house, and it was everything I’d been looking for! Amazing- it really was a miracle! I started a new painting and met some new people.

Creating MiraclesTo manifest miracles and magic in your life doesn’t have to be hard or complicated. It can be as simple as opening your heart to opportunities and saying the blessing. That’s what worked for me!

According to the Course in Miracles, there is no order of difficulty. One miracle is not harder than another to manifest. They are all the same. Given that, my advice is to go big!

If you’re inspired and want a copy of the Miracles and Magic blessing, inspired by Kyle Gray, email me through the website contact for and I’ll send you a copy. Remember, breathe in love and magic, because miracles are all around you, waiting to be discovered.

Listen to the Universe. In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, we dive deep into the world of spiritual growth and self-discovery with Jeni Holla, an experienced Akashic Records guide and energy healer.

Learn how tapping into the cosmic library can help you harness your inner power and authenticity.

Intuitive Guidance with Jeni HollaNot your typical Akashic Records guide, Jeni’s decade of experience, combined intuitive guidance and practical insights help conscious leaders and spiritual entrepreneurs achieve profound transformation.

Jeni shared the story of discovering her calling. It started in her teens when she was introduced to the spiritual realm through books like The Celestine Prophecy. So, she became familiar with spirituality and related topics at a young age.

While she began her career in corporate sales, Jeni was drawn back to spiritual exploration through Maureen St. Germain’s book, “Waking Up in 5D.” This journey led her to Maureen’s work on opening the Akashic Records—a pivotal moment that illuminated the path Jeni was meant to follow.

A Portal to TransformationThe Akashic Records can be likened to a cosmic library, holding the energetic imprint of every soul’s journey. Jeni candidly discussed how her own encounters with the records expanded her consciousness and revealed her purpose.

She emphasizes that it wasn’t just about personal growth, but a call to empower others—something she never imagined for herself.

As Jeni began tuning into the records and channeling messages, she discovered the power of embracing the unknown. This new dimension of her work pushed her to lean into areas beyond her comfort zone.

This accelerated her growth both personally and spiritually. It’s a reminder that when you confront your fears and embrace your authentic self, transformation is inevitable.

The Key to Navigating LifeJeni and I talked about the importance of trust—both in oneself and in the universe. For many people, overthinking can stall progress, especially when it comes to living from the heart. Jeni revealed the importance of turning the volume up or down on overthinking, depending on what you’re working on. This is a huge help for navigating life with greater ease and being able to listen to the Universe.

Staying grounded while working in the spiritual realms is another key to making the most of the guidance. I talked about balancing practicality with spirituality, emphasizing the uniqueness of each person’s path. Trusting your inner compass and understanding how your experiences shape you, helps you find peace and alignment in your life.

The Etheric vs. The PracticalOne fascinating part of the discussion was the difference between the etheric (5D) and practical (3D) dimensions. Jeni illustrated this with her clients’ experiences, from forming profound connections with their guides to gaining unexpected clarity on significant life events.

These metaphysical transformations can sometimes defy explanation. Yet they serve as powerful reminders of the potential for inner healing and growth that are available. When talking about 5D, it’s more etheric or spiritual vs. 3D which is more every day and practical.

The process of working with the Akashic Records is not a one-size-fits-all experience. Instead, it’s uniquely tailored to each individual, addressing their needs at the soul level.

This approach allows deep-seated emotional and spiritual blocks to be identified and released, paving the way for a more authentic and fulfilling life. That’s what happens when you listen to the Universe.

Embrace Your PowerAs Jeni wrapped up her thoughts, she left us with a powerful call to action. She urged everyone to stop playing small and step into their power.

It’s so important for everyone to connect with their own energy. Think about if you’re reacting to external influences, or are you making choices from your inner core? The answer to this question often leads to realignment with your true purpose.

In a world where many seek external validation, Jeni’s message is a refreshing reminder to trust yourself and your path. Taking an empowered step can make a significant impact, not only in your own life, but also rippling out into the world.

Ultimately, Jeni encourages everyone to listen to their inner guide when choosing whom to work with on their spiritual journey. Trust in those gentle nudges and follow what truly resonates with your soul. Whether you’re a seasoned spiritual seeker or just beginning your exploration, there’s a place for everyone in this vast, etheric landscape.

In the words of Jeni herself, “Let your light shine and make those tidal waves of change you are meant to create.”

You can learn more about her insights and teachings through her website, JeniHolla.com, where you can sign up for her free newsletter featuring weekly channeled messages.

Have you been to a sound bath or crystal bowl sound healing? It’s sheer bliss and fabulous self-care! That’s what I’m talking about in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Dive into the captivating world of sound healing with my guest, Catherine Barrett, known for her unique sound healing practices. Catherine shares her journey into meditation and the relaxing vibrations she brings to her clients through sound.

Discovering A Healing PathCatherine’s story begins in 2011 when she found herself grappling with personal challenges, including a difficult divorce. Struggling with insomnia and stress, she stumbled upon Deepak Chopra’s 21-day meditation challenge. This sparked a powerful shift for her.

To help clients have a deeper experience, Catherine began incorporating Tibetan bowls into her meditation sessions. She was very encouraged by the positive responses which was the start of her sound healing.

The Science Behind the SoundCatherine talked about how sound waves work their magic by literally washing over and through the body. This is due to the body’s high water content – about 70%! Sound waves stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, lowering cortisol levels and ultimately relaxing the entire body.

The sound vibrates through the body, offering what Catherine describes as a gentle massage for the lymphatic system. Beyond relaxation, sound also induces a state where creativity and clarity can flourish. Eventhough sessions are relaxing, her corporate sessions have also helped people find unexpected solutions to work problems.

Sound to Calm the MindSound frequencies can slow brainwaves from the hectic beta state to a meditative alpha or even theta state. This transition calms the mind resulting in an mental and emotional unclogging. This can help people reconnect with their true self.

The soothing sounds produce emotional releases in clients, who find themselves laughing, crying, or simply relieved of tension. This non-intrusive method for aligning body energy and releasing emotional blockages, makes it a simple and easy path for healing.

Discover Healing with Essential Oils

Crystal Bowl Sound HealingCatherine’s toolkit is a harmonious blend of amazing instruments. From crystal bowls tuned to the chakras to the tinkling sounds of the koshi chimes, these instruments resonate with almost everyone. To me they sound like fairies!

Her sessions incorporate a variety of instruments to maintain the meditative engagement. Relaxing and yet listening, the sound guides participants through a remarkable auditory adventure.

Instruments like the ocean drum or rain stick are a great way to wrap up a session. These sounds are grounding and complete a sound bath by recentering and helping participants come back to the body.

The Remarkable Soul Intellifence Method of Healing

Sound as a Healing ToolCatherine’s dedication to sound as a healing method has created remarkable shifts among her clients. They have experienced releasing muscle tension, emotional epiphanies, or a renewed sense of self. Sound healing has a versatile range of benefits.

Catherine encourages listeners to seek out crystal bowl sound healing experiences locally. Often affordable, these sessions promise an unconventional, yet remarkably relaxing journey into self-care. Sound healing can be an unexpected ally in your journey towards inner peace.

Healing from Within

With society having a growing appreciation for sound’s role in wellbeing, Catherine’s approach highlights the benefits and accessibility. She invites everyone to indulge in this ancient, yet cutting-edge form of meditative therapy. There’s little out there as soothing and relaxing as crystal bowl sound healing.

Get a copy of Catherine’s Free sound healing meditation recording! If you’re curious or ready to experience a snippet of this soothing practice, direct message @Catherine.Barrett.Sound on Instagram and she’ll send the recording to you!

BIO – Catherine BarrettCatherine Barrett began her meditation journey in 2011 and has been committed to it ever since. In her own life, meditation has served as a healthy coping mechanism for everyday stressors, as well as a way to discover inner peace through mindfulness. She strongly believes it is one of the most profound forms of self-care and is deeply passionate about guiding each student on their own unique path to developing a practice that suits them.

Catherine completed her teacher training in the Shamatha style of meditation under David Nichtern in 2016 and began instructing students privately throughout Fairfield county (CT). She noticed the positive effects of using sound bowls and pursued certification in sound healing. She also has been certified to teach EFT, Yoga Nidra, and became a Reiki Master in 2017.

In this enchanting episode of the Breathe, Love and Magic podcast, I had a fascinating conversation about dragon guardians with Neil Gaur, founder of PortalToAscension.com.

Discovering Dragon GuardiansThis mythical subject is not just fanciful tales but is actually steeped in deep spiritual and esoteric meaning. Neil clarified dragons aren’t merely folklore but linked to significant archetypal and metaphorical meanings, grounded in historical and cultural narratives.

Neil explained the astrological importance of the year we are in according to Chinese astrology. This is the year of the Wood Dragon, symbolizing masculine energy. Next year is the Year of the Snake, transitioning us to divine feminine energy. According to Neil, this sequence represents a balance of serpentine energies, deeply rooted in both mythology and energy work.

I’ve always loved dragons, as did my mother who bought me a bronze dragon statue that now sits on my ancestor altar.

Listen to Neil’s first interview about changing the ancient history timeline

East vs. West on DragonsThere is a stark contrast between Eastern and Western perspectives on dragons. The Eastern world reveres dragons as a symbol of enlightenment and spiritual ascension. However, the Western world often depicts them as adversaries to be vanquished. This dichotomy points to differing cultural narratives around spiritual symbolism.

Neil learned a lot about dragons through a past life regression. During his session, he discovered he was from a planet that’s in the constellation of Orion. His regression revealed that dragons have profound connections with human souls and him personally. Dragon guardians aid humans with their incarnation and spiritual journey, particularly from birth to three years old.

Dragons as GuardiansAccording to Neil, every human potentially has a dragon counterpart that assists in their soul’s journey starting in a mystical pool within the Earth to the physical realm. These dragon guardians support souls through their early years and foster a deep spiritual bond, helping them navigate the initial stages of life.

Much to his amazement, Neil told a powerful anecdote about a woman who talked about her young daughter having a dragon invisible friend from the red tribe. This was an exact parallel to his own story. He was surprised and felt this was strong confirmation since he hadn’t said one word to her about dragons.

The Spiritual Role of Dragons and SnakesThe dragon and snake are symbols that unearth hidden truths and wisdom. They challenge you to confront and heal from past traumas, preparing you for a new dimension of spiritual experiences. Neil emphasized that these mythical creatures aid humanity in exposing and dealing with lies and manipulations that have long been hidden.

Dragon guardians are also powerful symbols of prosperity, and higher consciousness. They usher in a transformative era, encouraging humanity to move from scarcity and fear to abundance and enlightenment.

Ascension and Present AwarenessMy guest noted that true ascension is about being present in the moment and finding beauty in the now, rather than waiting for some future event. This perspective underscores the importance of being mindful as a foundation for living better now and creating a better future.

Avalon, King Arthur & GuinevereAs mentioned, Neil travels the globe putting together amazing events. His most recent conference at Glastonbury in the UK, is supposedly on the site of Avalon which was once surround by water.

We talked a little about the Camelot folklore and I mentioned that in my reading, I discovered that today’s stories have many falsehoods according to some historians. It’s been asserted that Guinevere never cheated on King Arthur and that Lancelot was not even part of the original story.

Discrepancies in the Arthur StoryMany changes have been made to this mythic legend that persists. One account claims Guinevere was from Avalon’s Fae community and she agreed to marry the human King Arthur to help create the spiritually elevated community of Camelot.

Morgause, also known as Morgain, was the queen of the Fae and not Arthur’s half sister contrary to how today’s story goes. They did not have an incestuous child who grew up to be Mordred and was the downfall of Arthur.

Also, Morgain was called the Lady of the Lake, and held the position as head of the Fae. Plus, Avalon was considered a portal to the elemental world. This is aligned with what I’ve read about her being the Queen of the Faeries.

Some historians blame the “powers that be”, for tarnishing the women in this epic tale that survives today in it’s twisted form. Unfortunately, much of the magic and some of the real facts, including stories of Merlin are lost over the years.

Neil’s Upcoming EventsBeyond the dragon guardians, Neil has several exciting events lined up, including an 11-day streaming event called The Awakening of Humanity. Starting October 8 – 18th, 2024. This is the biggest live stream event ever, celebrating his 16 year anniversary of Portal to Ascension. There will be 77 presenters offering workshops, meditation, and activations.

Are you struggling with something in life that isn’t the way you want it? Have you tried asking the Universe for help?

Before jumping into the mini-workshop I have for you in this episode, I did mention three good things – magical moments that I had since the last episode. One was meeting my friend Kristine, the founder and creator of the Soul Intelligence (R) Method that I offer as bioenergetic clearings.

We had never met in person, only on zoom over the last three years. As it turned out, I was going on vacation to the same town where her mom lives. And she happened to be visiting her mom when I was there! Synchronicity! So, we all met for dinner which was so much fun. Here are the photos from that night.

What is the Universe?What’s the context for talking about the Universe? The Universe represents everything that’s out there. The stars, the sky, the sun, the earth, and our solar system, right? And there are other solar systems too (and other Universes).

You are also a part of the Universe. So,the first thing to realize is that the Universe is the source of everything, and you too, are a part of everything, which is great!

I hope this makes you feel empowered and you start to see why you should feel completely deserving of asking the Universe for help.

Some people think the Universe is the source, God, Goddesses and Gods, or ascended masters. It includes your higher self and your soul. It includes nature, the fairy realm and elementals, the angels and your spirit guides. And let’s not forget your whole and healed ancestors.

After all, the Universe is limitless and inclusive, offering countless ways to request help and provide answers and aid. Now that you know what the Universe is and why it’s good to ask, let’s talk about surefire methods to get the support you want when you need it most.

Asking the Universe for Help – 8 WaysIn this podcast episode, I share eight suggestions to ask the Universe for assistance. You can hear the details for each in the episode, but I’ll list them here, so you know what to listen for:

  1. Write the universe a letter
  2. Your body offers clues
  3. Connect with a tree for wisdom and healing
  4. Sing the Ganesh chant
  5. Ask the faery realm for help – but follow the process I recommend closely
  6. Reach out to your ancestors – they love you!
  7. Ask the Universe for a sign – get my free audio program here but the podcast has additional ideas
  8. Ask your angels for their help – they’re waiting for you and ready!

Additional Suggestions1. Try Prayer 2. Meditate on your problem for insights 3. Rely on your intuition and inner wisdom for help 4. Do a Tarot card reading 5. Use a pendulum 6. Get a professional reading!

Create a Ritual to Ask for HelpWhen making your request, you can create a ritual:

  • Start by lighting a candle
  • Center yourself, get quiet, and slow your breathing
  • State your request clearly and be specific
  • Focus on what you do want vs. complaining about what’s happening or what you don’t want
  • Close by saying, “This or something better” to allow the Universe to provide the best possible solution. The Universe is much smarter than you and me
  • Complete the exercise by expressing gratitude for the help before you even get it. A grateful heart is magnetic
  • Have faith! This is an essential part of the process!

What to ExpectMost of the suggestions might not produce a direct or immediate response. However, even, if you don’t get anything right away, that doesn’t mean you won’t get the support you need and requested.

This is so important when asking the universe for help. I don’t want you to feel disappointed if you don’t get an immediate response. It isn’t just about asking and putting the Universe on notice that you need help.

You need to spend time believing the Universe will support you and that the angels or your ancestors, etc. will come through for you.

Be patient, hold firm to your beliefs, and know you are always surrounded by a team of angels, spirit guides, ancestors and loved ones who work to guide and help you through life at every step.

This is true even if you’re unaware of that support. When you believe help is available, and within your reach, you’ll feel less isolated and more supported by the Universe and all of its members.

Sometimes just reminding yourself of this fundamental truth can help strengthen your belief and bring you a measure of peace while you’re waiting for the answers, manifestation, or resolution.

Enjoy the podcast and good luck with whatever method you choose. Help is on the way!

Do you use magic daily? Simple acts like meditation, connecting with your guides, writing with your higher self, or even infusing your tea or coffee with intention? There are countless ways to add magic to everyday life, but are you using them?

In this episode, I reflect on my journey and what I’ve learned over the last five years.

Self-ReflectionRecently, I reviewed my journals from 2020 to now, hoping to learn about my spiritual journey. While the big adventure began in July 2023, my deeper reflection revealed patterns I hadn’t noticed. Today, I’m sharing the highlights and the wake-up call that came from this review. It showed me how I’ve been living and what needs to change.

A Magical AffirmationIn 2020, I worked with a magic coach and created an affirmation: “I live a magical life filled with helpful and fun synchronicities. These fabulous synchronicities delight and guide me.” I started a morning practice of gratitude, intentions, and affirmations that lasted until the end of 2021. The practice was incredibly effective, but I eventually stopped. Why? We’ll get there.

Sugar Bowl Magic and Akashic RecordsDuring this time, I also learned about sugar bowl magic—stirring affirmations into sugar to sweeten up life. I had an unforgettable experience reading the Akashic Records opening prayer by Linda Howe, which gave me a powerful energetic attunement. The experience was profound, and I can still feel the energy today as I’m talking about it.

Daily Magic PracticesOver time, I explored different forms of magic—infusing my coffee with love and health, sending blessings, or talking to plants. These small acts of daily magic can be transformative. One of my favorites is choosing the color of my clothes consciously. Listen to this episode with 30 bits of daily magic.

Healing the Heart WallI’ve also had amazing experiences with the Heart Wall meditation, (based on the work of which revealed energetic blocks and protective devices in my field. These blocks were tied to vows I made in past lives, keeping me from fully accessing my magic.

Releasing Old VowsThrough meditation, I released limiting beliefs and vows that had bound my magic. It was exhilarating to remember the freedom I’d gained. I had forgotten many of these moments, but reviewing them reignited my excitement. Yet, despite these breakthroughs, I still found myself inconsistent with daily magic.

Kundalini Yoga and Garden MagicKundalini yoga and chanting became a part of my routine, lifting my spirits. I even had a profound connection with my garden—moths danced on my arm after I spoke gratitude to my plants. These magical moments reminded me of the power of tuning in to nature.

Being InconsistentDespite all of these experiences, I wasn’t using my magic consistently. I tried new practices, got excited, and then let them fizzle out. It wasn’t the variety that was the problem—it was the lack of consistency. I realized I wasn’t staying true to my magical self.

A Message from a NovelRecently, while reading Discovery of Witches, (also a three-season series on Netflix) I saw a message about daily magic that resonated deeply. It reminded me that to live a magical life, I need to be one with my magic every day. Magic doesn’t just happen—it’s created. I can’t expect magic to come to me if I’m not actively engaging with it.

Committing to Daily MagicI’ve realized that if I want to live a magical life, I have to invest in myself and my magic daily. It’s not about casting spells—it’s about focusing my energy on the things that matter. Infusing my tea with intention, sweeping my front stoop to clear energy, walking to move stagnant energy—these are all acts of magic that connect me to my higher self.

Magic as a Way of LifeFrom now on, I’m committing to daily magic. I’ll infuse everything I do with intention, calling in my highest energy and embracing the magic all around me. This isn’t just about performing acts of magic; it’s about living as the magical being that I am. If you want to join me in this journey, I’d love to hear about your experiences.

The Path of Ease and GraceUltimately, my goal is to walk the path of ease and grace, but to do that, I need to use my magic. By connecting with spirit, my higher self, and the magic alive around me, I hope to create a life filled with synchronicities and guidance. I talk about living a magical life, but now I’m making it a discipline. When I fall off the path, I’ll get back on quickly. The key is to infuse my life with intention daily.

Join the JourneyI’m not insisting that you practice daily magic with me, but I invite you to try it if you feel called. Even small acts can have a big impact. If we commit to walking our highest path, imagine what our lives could be like. It won’t always be sunshine and flowers, but the magic will help us navigate challenges with more grace.

I hope you’ll join me in increasing magic and awareness in your life. Together, we can make life more magical, more aligned, and more in tune with the synchronicities that guide us.

If you’d like to share your thoughts or magical experiences, feel free to comment below – I’d love to hear from you!

Welcome to another fascinating exploration of past lives! Today, we’re diving into an intriguing reading for Sylvia, who came to uncover how her intuitive and healing skills from previous incarnations apply to her current life.

I dove into the Akashic Records and used my intuitive skills to reveal insights from Sylvia’s many lifetimes. Here’s what we discovered.

Sylvia’s QuestionsBefore we get into the reading itself, it’s important to understand Sylvia’s objectives. Sylvia wanted to explore how she used her intuitive and healing skills in past lives and how these skills influence her today. We discovered incarnations dating back to Atlantis, with many roles as an intuitive and healer.

Sylvia also had practical concerns. She wondered why she struggled to let go of material possessions, feeling a need to hold onto things. This, she felt, was hindering her personal growth and freedom. Her inquiry set the stage for an in-depth journey into her soul’s history.

Opening the Akashic RecordsWe began by stepping into the Akashic Records. After saying a prayer to set our intentions, Sylvia asked the pivotal question: “How did I use my intuitive skills in past lives that will help me today?” We pinpointed several past lives that held the answers.

Skills from AtlantisThe first vision brought us to Atlantis. In this ancient civilization, intuitive and healing skills were commonplace. Sylvia was a gifted healer and intuitive.

People regularly sought her out for guidance and energy healing, much like today’s spiritual practitioners but with a societal acceptance that made her work flourish. Her effectiveness and skills earned her a high reputation, and it was clear that these abilities have deep roots in her soul’s journey.

Life in Ancient EgyptAs Atlantis faced its downfall, the people scattered. Sylvia’s spiritual journey took her to Egypt, a land famous for its pyramids—structures that were not merely tombs but spiritual training centers.

In that life, Sylvia guided acolytes through their psychic attunements and other mystical practices inside the pyramids. She achieved a high level of mastery in this life time.

Medieval Eastern EuropeThe next significant life appeared in Eastern Europe, somewhere east of Greece, during the 1100s to 1200s. Surrounded by a backdrop of medieval mysticism and church dominance, Sylvia’s intuitive work required secrecy.

Using crystals and other tools, she operated in a clandestine manner, afraid of the Church’s persecution. That life was characterized by both effectiveness and fear, impacting her current life’s sense of security and willingness to step into the spotlight.

Madame BlavatskyAn interesting twist came when Sylvia’s past life connections led us to Madame Blavatsky, a renowned spiritualist born in 1831 in Russia and later a founder of The Theosophical Society.

While it wasn’t crystal clear, it seems Sylvia was one of Blavatsky’s peers or in her spiritual circle. This past life connection brought a different dimension to her soul’s journey, one that was more public and socially accepted than her hidden life in medieval Europe.

Holding On to PossessionsOne of Sylvia’s key questions was about her difficulty in letting go of material possessions. The reading revealed that this issue could be traced back to her past lives.

The fall of Atlantis and her hidden life in Europe both contributed to a sense of instability. This was exascerbated by Sylvia’s energy frequencies rising.

Holding onto physical items became a subconscious method to maintain a sense of grounding and security. In essense her “stuff” kept her safe by weighing her down.

This past life reading resolved fears and limiting beliefs

Grounding and Letting GoInstead of focusing solely on decluttering, the recommendation was to address the deep-seated fears of instability. Incorporating grounding practices like visualizating roots growing deep into the Earth, and using grounding stones such as hematite and garnet were suggested.

With a couple of other grounding techniques, Sylvia was sure to feel more secure. By focusing on creating a sense of safety, decluttering and letting go of possessions would become a more natural, organic process.

Gratitude and AffirmationAs we wrapped up the session, Sylvia expressed her gratitude for the insights and practical tools she received. This reading offered not only a glance into her past lives but also actionable steps to better her current life.

Simple affirmations like “I am loved, I am light, I am safe” could help reinforce her sense of grounding and security.

Research on Madame BlavatskyAfter the reading, I did some research on Madame Blavatsky to provide Sylvia, and all of you, with a bit more context. Madame Helena Blavatsky was a Russian/Ukrainian writer born in 1831.

She later became a spiritual leader in the United States and co-founded the Theosophical Society in 1875, which focused on exploring mystical and spiritual concepts.

Blavatsky’s work often involved conducting séances and connecting people with the spiritual realm, akin to the practices of modern mediums. During her time, there was substantial interest in communicating with the loved ones in the afterlife. This was greatly popularized by public figures like Queen Victoria after her husband passed.

However, Blavatsky and her work faced considerable skepticism and opposition. Notably, magician Harry Houdini aggressively campaigned against spiritualism, viewing it as fraudulent. Houdini went as far as to petition Congress to intervene against what he considered deceptive practices.

Eventually, Blavatsky and her partner, Henry Steel Olcott, relocated to India, where the concept of reincarnation and spiritual exploration were more culturally accepted. From there, they continued their work largely free from legal threats and societal skepticism prevalent in the West.

Past Lives and Present ChallengesSylvia’s potential link to Madame Blavatsky highlighted the complexity and public acceptance of spiritual practices over time. It provided a fascinating twist to Sylvia’s reading, emphasizing the recurrent theme of spiritual mastery across different eras.

Another past life reading about love and marriage

Moving Forward with Greater ClarityTo wrap up the reading, not only did Sylvia discover fascinating details about her past lives but she also received actionable insights to navigate current challenges. Grounding practices, affirmations, and understanding the historical context of her spiritual journey all contribute to a richer, more secure present.

For those intrigued by how past life patterns could influence your life today, consider scheduling a past life reading. These readings offer invaluable insights, guiding you through your present-day life challenges with lessons from the past.

By visiting Sylvia’s various incarnations, we understand the timeless nature of the spiritual journeys, seamlessly weaving together the past, present, and future in the fabric of the soul’s evolution.

Are you on the journey to find lasting love? In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I had an illuminating conversation with Carisa Montooth, a Love Coach, sixth-generation healer, author, and speaker. Carisa combines practical dating strategies with deep emotional and spiritual healing, so keep reading!

Love & Dating Blind SpotsCarisa explains that identifying blind spots in love and dating is crucial. These blind spots are often remnants of unresolved issues from the past, influencing your present behavior and dating patterns.

For example, if you consistently attract partners who aren’t serious about relationships, there may be a subconscious belief at play that needs to be addressed. It could be something like, I’m not worthy of serious love, or people don’t take me seriously, or even love doesn’t last.

Healing Subconscious BlocksCarisa elaborates on how these blind spots manifest in your dating life. Past experiences shape your responses and behaviors, sometimes holding you back or creating self-sabotage.

If you find yourself repeatedly dating similar types of people or facing the same issues in relationships, it’s a clear sign of a blind spot or block. Recognizing this pattern is the first step towards healing and making healthier choices.

One significant way blind spots reveal themselves is through self-sabotage. Carisa explains that when you’re in a promising dating situation, fear of past traumas can lead you to instinctively sabotage it.

For instance, if you believe that the relationship is too good to be true, you may unwittingly create conflicts or distance, effectively pushing the potential partner away.

Improve your odds of finding love after 40

Success & Vulnerability in DatingI think there’s a big misconception that successful women intimidate men. Carisa agrees, emphasizing that vulnerability and authenticity are key in relationships. It’s essential to let your guard down and not hide behind your accomplishments. Authentic connections flourish when both partners can see and accept each other’s true self.

When it came to the idea of pursuit, Carisa points out that you must align your actions with your intentions. If you want to be pursued, you need to allow that to happen and not jump in to get the ball rolling. This balance is crucial for maintaining a healthy dynamic in a relationship, where both parties feel valued and desired.

Try conscious dating to find lasting love

Technology & DatingI asked Carisa about the biggest change in dating in the 10 years she’s been in business. Her response was technology, which has transformed dating over the past decade.

The instant gratification culture fueled by social media and dating apps often leads to unrealistic expectations. It can also create an impersonal approach to relationships. Carisa highlights the phenomena of ghosting and cloaking, where your partner disappears without explanation, causing psychological distress.

This is particularly traumatic when it happens in a relationship where you’ve been seeing each other for a while. On the other hand, ghosting at the start of dating is normal, part of the process, and to be expected.

Carisa and I agree that establishing healthy communication patterns is essential. Over-relying on technology, like texting and social media for constant reassurance can be detrimental. Finding a balance that suits both partners’ communication styles helps you maintain a strong, healthy relationship.

Sixth Generation HealerI asked Carisa about her unique background as a sixth-generation healer. This lineage of healing includes naturalists, doulas, dowsers, midwives, and root workers. Carisa integrates this deep-rooted and ancestral knowledge into her practice, offering a comprehensive and unique healing experience for her clients.

Healing from past traumas and subconscious blocks is an integral part of Carisa’s approach. She explains that unresolved grief or beliefs like “I’m too old for love” or “I’ve found my soulmate, so now that’s over” can severely impact your ability to attract and sustain a healthy relationship.

Addressing these wounds on a cellular and spiritual level creates a fresh slate, enabling you to attract a partner who matches your healed, empowered energy. This is one huge reason healing is so important before you set out to find love.

Intuition and Self-Love in DatingWe both stress the importance of self-love and personal fulfillment. When you build a life that feels rich, abundant, and fulfilling, you naturally become more attractive to potential partners.

Carisa shares that affirming and loving yourself deeply is not about perfection; it’s about progress. Continual self-care and self-love create an inviting energy that attracts a compatible and love-ready partner.

She also recommends healing practices and working with healer like herself, to clear energetic blocks and open yourself up to love. Carisa’s clients benefit from her multi-level approach, addressing both practical dating strategies and deeper emotional healing.

Essential Love & Dating AdviceCarisa’s parting advice to anyone seeking love is to stop striving to make love happen and instead, start making love welcome. By fostering self-love, healing past wounds, and staying open, you create the perfect environment for a meaningful connection.

Curious about emotional healing, spiritual growth, and intuitive counseling? On this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with Victoria Shaw, an intuitive counselor and spiritual coach. She brings a unique blend of Ivy League psychology and intuitive guidance to help clients achieve emotional and spiritual growth.

From Psychology to IntuitionVictoria Shaw is a rare gem in the world of counseling. She combines robust academic training with deep spiritual insight to help clients connect with their higher selves.

At first glance, the transition from an Ivy League-trained psychologist to an intuitive coach might seem like a gigantic leap. But for Victoria, this journey was fueled by a deep spiritual longing.

While completing her PhD in psychology, Victoria realized that traditional academic research couldn’t address her burning questions about consciousness and the soul.

She recalls asking her advisor, “When do we get to ask the interesting questions like, what is the nature of consciousness?” His response — “I don’t know” — led her to seek answers beyond academia.

Her Spiritual AwakeningFor Victoria, the road to becoming an intuitive counselor was paved with personal experiences and explorations outside the conventional path. Introduced to various holistic practitioners for her children’s health issues, she discovered a realm she hadn’t known existed.

Working with acupuncturists, craniosacral therapists, astrologers, and medical intuitives, these professionals expanded her understanding of healing.

Raised with no spiritual or religious background, these experiences were eye-opening. Yoga and meditation classes in the 90s were her first taste of spirituality. Gradually, Victoria realized that the same intuitive insights she was praised for in academia were her true calling.

Trust Intuitive GuidanceAs an intuitive counselor, Victoria emphasizes that intuition plays a vital role in our everyday lives and decision-making processes. Once she began consciously developing her intuition, everything about her life changed for the better. Now, offering intuitive counseling, she helps others unlock their inner wisdom, teaching them to trust their own intuitive guidance.

Intuition comes in many forms—whether it’s a gut feeling, a sudden insight, or a quiet knowing. Victoria encourages her clients to notice these intuitive nudges. Everyone has intuitive abilities; it’s our birthright, she asserts.

Clinical IntuitionOne of the most captivating moments in Victoria’s career came recently, when she was invited back to Yale to give a talk on clinical intuition. This was a full-circle moment, since she had gotten her PhD at Yale and now she was teaching a segment there. For her, this marked the academic world’s growing openness to spiritual concepts.

Despite some skepticism in the room, many were curious and excited, showing a shift towards embracing intuitive insights even in scientific and academic circles.

Discover the difference between Fortune Telling and Intuition

Intuition for Every DayWhat’s fascinating about Victoria’s approach is how she integrates intuition into everyday activities. I agreed and shared a story about pruning my arugula plants in the garden. I asked the plants how to cut them back as I wasn’t sure what would be best. The arugula told me not to worry and that it would guide me on where to cut.

This experience underscores how intuition doesn’t need to be a grand spiritual revelation. It can guide us in simple, practical ways too and even with simple tasks that might be new to you.

Develop Your IntuitionVictoria suggests three straightforward steps to awaken your intuitive abilities:

1. Notice: Start by recognizing how your intuition is already working for you. Pay attention to moments when you just “know” something without logical explanation. These can be as simple as choosing the fastest checkout line or knowing who’s calling before you look at your phone.

2. Differentiate: Learn to tell the difference between your intuitive insights and your mind’s chatter. Intuition is usually calm and free of emotional charge. On the other hand, fear, anxiety and overthinking tend to come with a lot of emotional noise, not part of your intuition.

3. Trust: Finally, trust your intuition. Even if it’s just in small, low-stakes situations at first, the more you listen, the more evident the guidance will become.

Intuition in Professional SettingsHistorically, intuitive insights in professions like medicine or business have often been kept on the down low and left unrecognized. Victoria recalls learning about “clinical intuition,” where doctors rely on gut feelings honed through experience. This phenomenon is increasingly acknowledged today as vital to effective decision-making.

Similarly, Victoria points out that intuition plays a crucial role in other areas of life, such as coaching, parenting and even sports. Trusting your innate abilities can significantly enhance effectiveness and fulfillment in these roles.

This is why intuitive counseling is so valuable—because it helps you understand what is for your highest good.

Bridging Two WorldsVictoria’s journey aptly demonstrates that intuition and intellectual can complement each other beautifully, creating a more holistic approach to personal and professional growth. When you live by your intuition and trust it, you will find more joy, feel more alive and have a more optimistic outlook on life.

Do you feel like you’re on a spiritual adventure? Well, I know I am. For the past 13 months, I’ve been on a journey without a map, GPS, guide or agenda. Just the opportunity to listen to my intuition.

Today, I’m excited to share the latest phase of my spiritual adventure, which is about painting and being in an art show. It’s an experience brimming with colorful learning, fun, and unexpected rewards.

How My Adventure BeganIf you’re new to my podcast, welcome! For those who’ve been with me for a while, you might remember me talking about embarking on a spiritual adventure last summer. It all started when I did some Celtic shaman meditations and met Merlin. He said I was starting a spiritual adventure that had no goal, map, or guide.

I was told the only goal was to just go and see what happens. I had no control, no destination—just pure, uncharted exploration. Initially, this terrified me because, well, who likes to not have control?

Fast forward to this summer, and my latest escapade. For the first time in my life, I participated in an art show hung in a community gallery. Painting and creating art for the first time in years has taken me out of my comfort zone and added a true zest to August.

A Nudge to Try Something NewMy involvement in the art show began unexpectedly. I decided to check out an artist group in my town. To be very honest, I got annoyed right from the start. The group’s leader, Elizabeth, suggested contacting her by phone on the website. But when you call, her message explains that she never picks up her message. AKA – don’t leave me one because I won’t listen to it.

Then at this first meeting, the director talked for 45 minutes while chewing gum. Boring! Yet, for some reason I persevered and decided to give it a chance. This seemingly small decision actually gave me the chance to get to know Elizabeth. Turns out she’s an incredible person with a rich history of service and progressive thinking.

Elizabeth was a social worker in the ‘70s, dealing with sensitive cases and later even pioneering shelters for abused women and children. Her stories were fascinating, her spirit indomitable. Soon, this woman who had initially annoyed me became an inspiring friend.

Painting Up a StormElizabeth was organizing an art show celebrating our town’s historical beach amusement park, and she asked me to help her. She needed filler paintings of beach scenes, amusement park visuals, and more. Despite my apprehension, I dove in, painting everything from starfish to popcorn. What started as a nerve-wracking endeavor grew into a gratifying creative outlet.

I texted paintings to friends as I finished them to get feedback. To my surprise, my friend, Linda, wanted to buy my first two paintings! This unexpected appreciation gave me the confidence to continue. I finished 10 paintings in about a month! That was something new for me.

Hanging the ShowWe hung the show together, an entirely new experience as well. It took hours with a hammer and lots of nails to hang the artwork. Then three others from this artist’s group came to finish the hanging. I was a little taken aback by their casual attitude towards the process and several were actually crooked!

What came to me about this was a lesson of learning to let go. While I struggled with wanting to fix their work, I needed to let go of my desire for order and a more aesthetic approach to hanging the show. This was a tough lesson on my spiritual journey: letting go of control – it’s so hard!

Show OpeningThe show opened on a Friday, and the response was astonishing. Within the first hour, someone bought two of my paintings. Over the weekend, almost all my artwork sold—eight out of ten pieces! This was beyond anything I had ever expected.

Even Elizabeth, who had original paintings and printed posters of her work, saw significant sales. One attendee even bought the maps of the historical sites featured in the show, offering a fee more than anyone imagined. No one thought they would even sell!

Lessons LearnedParticipating in the art show wasn’t just about painting, expressing myself, or figuring out what my style is. It wasn’t just about selling art. It was a profound spiritual experience. By allowing myself to be drawn into this creative community, I not only rediscovered my joy of painting but also formed a friendship with Elizabeth.

This adventure has taught me about patience, letting go, and the possibility of a new community for me. It pushed me to explore new artistic styles, faster and more fluid, and escape my usual detailed landscapes. It was an exhilarating challenge that I now see as part of my ongoing spiritual adventure.

Listen to tips about letting go

What about You?So, what new thing have you tried recently? What intuitive nudges have you explored or ignored? There’s a world of opportunity knocking at your door. Try something new because you never know what joy, learning, or new friendships await you.

Whether it’s painting, playing a new sport, learning an instrument, or anything else that piques your interest, give it a shot. We’re here to work, learn, and above all, enjoy life. So, follow your intuition, embrace the fun, and find the joy you deserve.

As we wrap up this summer, what new adventure will you embark on? Let your intuition guide you, and you might discover something wonderful.

Final ThoughtsI’m incredibly grateful for this journey and the unexpected fun it brought me. Selling those paintings was a thrill, but the biggest reward was the experience itself. So go out, try something new, and let your intuition guide you.

Remember, life is not only about achieving goals—it’s also about the journey, the learning, and the fun you can find along the way.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m interviewed by the Midlife Courage Coach, Sheree Clark, and we had such a good conversation, covering so many spiritual topics!

Past Lives & Akashic RecordsWe talk about past lives and how they influence you today, especially your love life. You likely are with similar people as you’ve been with in your past lives – we come back together, over and over again.

Sheree and I also talked about what the Akashic Records are and how I found a secret healing temple inside that I share with my clients! The Akashic Records is like a library or data base of everything that has ever happened to you and everyone else on the planet.

Get an Akashic Records Past Life Reading

A lot of people insist you have to follow a specific protocol to access the information in the Akashic Records, but I have not found this to be true at all. Anyone can go look at their own records and you can see others if you get permission from them first.

Of course, you don’t want to poke around without permission – this is spiritually rude and unethical!

Angels & Spirit GuidesNext, we discussed angels and spirit guides, then moved on to intuition! I told a couple of my personal outrageous stories about how my guides tried to warn me of things. How I wish I had heeded those important messages I received, but unfortunately I ignored them and paid the price.

Hear More about Working with Angels

While I haven’t personally heard any messages from angels, I did remind listeners that angels are ready to help you at any time, but first you must ask for their help. It’s so simple – just ask out loud or in your mind!

Dating Coaching AdviceWe wrapped up with a bit of dating coaching advice that can help any single gal regardless of age or romantic history. The most important thing to keep in mind is to just try to enjoy an hour of conversation with someone new.

Take the pressure off and stop judging and scrutinizing – it’s a game changer! I know – I was guilty of this too when I was looking for my husband, but once I stopped everything started flowing.

If you screen well, your dates will be in the possible category anyway. When you relax and just try to enjoy yourself, you’ll be warmer, softer, and far more alluring!

This is how you can be more of your true self, which is the best way to connect from the heart. When you discover if you can share a fun conversation and a 60 – 90 minutes without pressure, you’ll have a much better idea of who the person really is. Try it!

This is a jam-packed episode filled with fun stories and descriptions of how all these things work. Sheree asks fabulous questions and keeps the conversation lively and amusing.

What if something as simple and basic as breathing could solve your problems or help you attract love? Breathwork is an incredibly powerful tool to move stuck energy and let go of blocks or emotional baggage.

It can help with any challenge, from anxiety to finding love. And that’s what we’re delving into in this blog post, inspired by an episode of the Breathe Love and Magic podcast with breathwork expert Candy Irven.

Meet Candy IrvenIn this episode, I’m speaking with Candy Irven, a reformed people-pleaser and a 15-year tech executive who now channels her powers into offering breathwork, hypnosis, yoga, and intuitive coaching.

A Breathwork RevelationThinking about breathing all started again for me recently. I had a session with a practitioner that used a very complicated method which left me feeling uncomfortable and stressed. I wished there was something easier that could have been more helpful from our time together.

As I journaled about the session, the phrase “breathe in the magic” popped into my head. This concept, came to me during a magic coaching session back in 2020, letting me know I could connect with magic anytime by simply breathing it in.

Reflecting on this in my journal and connecting with my guides, they suggested I could breathe in not just magic, but also breathe in love. This cracked me up because that is the name of my podcast, right? Breathe Love & Magic. My guides have a sense of humor.

Yet, this was a wonderful suggestion because I can breathe in anything I want, like health, wealth, fun and laughter. Candy resonated with this idea, emphasizing that the breath is a powerful tool that can ground, energize and open you to magic.

Mechanics of BreathworkCandy teaches a type of breathwork that loads the body with oxygen, causing the blood vessels to open up and then restrict. This allows the judging mind—the ego mind—to go offline.

You’ll connect with your own magic and might even release DMT, known as the “spirit molecule,” facilitating a profound connection to the Universe.

Breathwork can be used in various ways: to calm, to energize, and to move energy through the body. Candy shares her journey into breathwork, initially finding it too “woo-woo” even for her.

However, an incredible out-of-body experience at a women’s circle and a transformative solo trip to Mexico helped her embrace breathwork fully.

Breathing and Emotional HealingCandy also touches on how breathwork helps with emotional healing. For example, practicing yoga involves postures that move distracting energy out of the body, so you can focus on the breath and enter a meditative state.

By sending loving energy to specific parts of the body through your breath, you can experience healing and transformation.

We talked about the importance of intentional breathing—how you can slow down the breath and get grounded, creating space to release pent-up emotions. This simple yet profound practice can shift your energy, making you feel lighter and more aligned with your true self.

Opening the HeartBreathwork is not just about physical benefits; it also helps with opening the heart. Candy explains that breathing in particular energies, like love, can soften the body and shift old stories that no longer serve you.

This open-heartedness is essential for attracting love into your life, as well as other positive experiences.

I talked about using affirmations to open her heart, and singing songs I wrote to manifest love, which helped me so much on my journey to find love. I’ve also shared these songs with many coaching clients over the 20 years I was a dating coach.

Changing the StoryCandy highlights the power of rewriting your stories through breathwork. By allowing old stories to surface during a breathwork session, you can let go of them and rewrite new, empowering narratives. This process can be life-changing, helping you move from repeating the same patterns to embracing new possibilities.

Whole-Body ConnectionBreathwork also facilitates a deeper connection toy our whole body. Candy shares how breathwork can release stuck energy, allowing for a more holistic experience.

She mentions her personal experience of twitching during breathwork sessions. That was an unwinding of her stuck energy. This practice can help you feel more embodied and connected to all parts of yourself.

Practical ApplicationsCandy encourages everyone to try breathwork and not to be discouraged by any initial nervousness. She shares a powerful story of a client who managed to safely navigate a panic attack during a breathwork session, ultimately gaining control and confidence.

Breathwork can also be used to create space in our lives, both physically and energetically. Candy suggests practical tips like making room in your closet or car for a future partner, which can energetically invite new experiences into our lives.

This suggestion is from Feng Shui and if you want to learn more about how to use this ancient Asian art to attract love, click here.

Final ThoughtsBreathwork is a simple, yet transformative practice that can help you move through emotional blocks, heal yourself, and open our hearts. Whether you’re new to breathwork or looking to deepen your practice, it’s a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation.

Candy’s insights remind you that the breath is always with you, ready to guide you to a more connected and fulfilling life. Take a moment right now to breathe in the love and magic that’s all around you. Your breath is a gateway to a world of possibilities.

BIO – Candy IrvenA reformed people-pleaser and 15-year tech exec, Candy channels her powers for good (most days) by offering breathwork, hypnosis, yoga, and intuitive coaching to individuals that are ready to have a breakthrough (instead of a breakdown), find clarity (instead of more confusion) and breathe new energy into their life.

Working with Candy is not for the faint of heart, though. She sees your potential (she’s a 6 of diamonds) and will actively encourage you to get there by real talking you from a place of acceptance and love with a refreshing dash of humor.

Do you know what the best days or times are to ask for spiritual guidance? You might be surprised to learn that some days are indeed better than others. In fact, there are many optimal times throughout the year with “thinning of the veil” to seek guidance from the spiritual realm.

This episode delves into the best times and ways to ask for spiritual guidance and connect deeply with your spirit guides, angels and ancestors.

Ask When You Need It!First and foremost, the best time to ask for spiritual guidance is when you need it. Don’t wait for a special day or the stars to align perfectly. If you have a problem, issu, or question that needs insight, go ahead and ask. Your angels, in particular, can’t help you unless you ask them directly.

Thinning of the VeilThere are specific times during the year when the veil between our world and the spirit world is thinner. What is the veil? It’s an energetic barrier between our reality and the spirit world. When it’s thinner, it’s easier to communicate and receive guidance. Let’s look at those special times.

Halloween (All Hallows Eve / Samhain) – Not surprising, Halloween, which was originally All Hallows Eve, is the ancient pagan holiday of Samhain. This day marks the end of summer and the beginning of the harvest season. Experts agree that the veil between worlds is at it’s thinnest during the week before and after this day, making it an ideal time to reach out to your ancestors.

May Day (Beltane) – May 1st, or Beltane, is ancient pagan holiday and another potent time for connecting with spirit. This time is perfect for communicating with nature spirits and fairies. It’s about rebirth and fertility, making it a magical time to seek guidance.

Personal and Celestial MilestonesBirthdays and Anniversaries – Your birthday is a powerful day for self-reflection and seeking guidance. Likewise, the birthdays of your ancestors can offer an added dimension to your spiritual inquiries. The anniversary of a loved one’s passing is also a powerful time to connect and seek guidance because that’s the thinning of the veil for them.

New Moon and Full Moon – Both the new moon and the full moon phases are excellent times to ask for guidance. These lunar phases are times when the veil is thinner and also when your intuition is enhanced, providing another layer of clarity and connection.

Solstices and Equinoxes – The solstices and equinoxes are dates of significant shifts in earth energy. Whether it’s the summer solstice’s abundance and growth or the winter solstice’s introspection and renewal, these dates offer powerful opportunities for spiritual work when the veil is thinner.

The same is true for the equinoxes, two special days when the daylight and the darkness of night are in balance. This harmony offers a thinning of the veil for an easier connection.

Different Ways to Receive GuidanceSigns and Symbols

Spirit often communicates through signs. Get in the habit of asking for specific signs to receive clear answers. For detailed instructions, you can get my free audio program How to Ask the Universe for a Sign and get an answer in 24 hours.

Automatic Writing

Automatic writing is a method where you let the pen flow without conscious thought. Start by writing your question, and then just let the words come through. This process can reveal profound insights directly from your guides and it’s fairly easy to do.

The Clairs

The different “clairs” — clairvoyance (seeing), clairaudience (hearing), clairsentience (feeling), and claircognizance (knowing) — are various ways you pick up on spirit communication. Pay attention to what you see, hear, feel, or just suddenly somehow know.

Your clairs are more active during the days with a thinning of the veil.

Dreams

Dreams can offer symbolic or prophetic messages. Make it a habit to write down your dreams as soon as you wake up. These dream messages can provide valuable insights and guidance.

Learn more about dreams in this episode

Many times your ancestors or angels help you through your dreams. Watch for puns where things have double meaning – my dreams are often like this.

For example, when I was first dating my husband, Paul, I had a dream about Paul Newman. I never usually dream of celebrities and I told him about it. He cracked me up by explaining it to me – “Paul, the new man” Hilarious! The subconscious mind is very clever.

Practical Steps to Increase AwarenessSet Your Intentions – Begin your day with a prayer or affirmation to set your spiritual radar for the day. A simple yet effective prayer is:

“Divine Mother, Father, Goddess, God, please show me how to be my most expansive self today and align with my highest good. Strengthen my awareness to recognize the signs, symbols, and synchronicities that make up the guidance you provide daily. Please open my heart to feel your divine presence and my own divinity. Please help me walk the path of ease and grace, to live a joyous life filled with wealth, health, love, fun, laughter, and friendship.”

Keep a Journal – Write down any signs, symbols, or synchronicities you notice or any messages. Keeping a journal helps you track the guidance you receive and makes you more aware of messages from your spirit guides.

Stay Open and Aware – Finally, remain aware of the signs and synchronicities in your daily life. Pay attention to what is happening around you. Often, spiritual guidance is missed because you’re too distracted or simply unaware.

By setting the intention to notice these signs and being aware on these special days through the year with there is a thinning of the veil, you’ll start to see more of them.

Make the Most of Spiritual GuidanceNow that you know the best times to seek guidance — whether it’s during special days like Halloween, or when you need it the most — you can tune in more effectively to the messages from your spirit guides.

Stay open, keep a journal, and set your intentions to remain aware. Doing this will help you make the most of the spiritual guidance available to you.

Until next time, this is Ronnie Ann Ryan wishing you love and magic.

Are you intrigued by the magical world of crystals and curious to hear how we might be related? In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with Damla Aktekin, an intuitive, inner child energetic wound healer, astrologer, crystal healing teacher, and more.

Damla’s Journey into HealingCurious about her journey, I asked Damla how she got involved with crystals and became an inner child energetic wound healer. Her story begins with serendipity and personal transformation. She didn’t have a natural inclination towards healing arts at all. Instead, she began her professional life as an engineer and business consultant.

However, in 2005, a series of stressful events led to chronic migraines, prompting her to seek out alternative healing methods. Her first encounter was with yoga, which she initially disliked but grew to love. This period, she calls, the beginning of her “body realization,” where she got connected to her own body.

Fast forward, after becoming a yoga teacher and studio manager, life had even more profound changes in store. The birth of her child in 2012 and an emergency C-section led her into a period of trauma and new explorations, introducing her to the healing powers of mantras and crystals.

The Crystal ConnectionWhen I probed into Damla’s connection with crystals, her insights were nothing I had ever heard of before. Rather than subscribing to the idea that specific crystals serve specific purposes, she encourages a more intuitive and personal relationship with them.

She suggests that you ask, “How can I work with this crystal?” approach it with the idea of co-creating. It’s more about the relationship than just the transaction.

Crystals – More Than Just RocksThen, Damla mentioned how her daughter is her favorite crystal, emphasizing that the essence of her work goes beyond mere geological specimens. Crystals are not just tools but ancient ancestors and relatives in the vibrational realm. Each encounter with a crystal is a unique opportunity for self-discovery and self-love.

Damla went on to describe her approach to inner child healing, linking it to her work with crystals. Each energetic wound or trauma experienced in life forms layers that obscure your innate beauty and potential. Crystals, with their pure vibrational essence, help peel back these layers, allowing you to reconnect with those hidden parts of ourselves.

“Our bodies are crystalline, and within that crystalline structure lies the spark of every part of our existence,” Damla shared. “When you face trauma, those sparks don’t disappear; they’re just hidden beneath layers of hurt and gunk.

Transformation in the Egyptian PyramidsOne of the most interesting parts of our conversation was Damla’s transformative experience in Egypt. Before visiting, she had a vivid dream of looking up at the Milky Way while standing by the Great Pyramids. This dream symbolized her inner night sky and hinted at the depths of the human soul and its potential for healing and connection.

Damla’s trip to Egypt was filled with spiritual awakenings. Climbing up the narrow staircase to the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid was like a rebirth. The journey inside the Pyramid mirrored the symbolic ascent through the birth canal into the womb, and the subsequent meditation in the King’s Chamber was life changing.

“A Merkabah pyramid descended upon me, and another one rose from beneath, converging at my heart,” Damla recounted. “I was told that all the questions and beauty I sought were already planted within my heart. This revelation was profound and pivotal.”

Inner Child Astrology and HealingDamla combines her expertise in astrology with inner child healing to offer a holistic approach to understanding yourself. She believes your body is filled with crystalline essence, which holds the key to unlocking your deepest fears and injuries. And these things can be traced back to childhood and even ancestral traumas.

“Our energetic wounds are like clouds obscuring our inner night sky,” she explained. “My role is to guide others to rediscover their crystalline essence, letting their inner light shine forth.”

Advice for Crystal EnthusiastsDuring the conversation, Damla emphasized the importance of forming a personal relationship with crystals, allowing your intuition to guide the healing process.

Damla’s work isn’t just about discovering and working with crystals. It’s also about nurturing your inner child – the parts that hold the deepest wounds and your greatest potential.

Her invitation is clear: “Whether you need to reconnect with your body, explore your inner child’s realm, or partner with crystals in your healing journey, there’s a unique path for you.”

How to attract love with crystals

Embrace Your True EssenceDamla’s journey and wisdom culminate in a profound realization: “We are beings of love. Our essence is love, and we are surrounded by love.”

She encourages you to shift your mindset from “fixing” yourself to celebrating and rediscovering your innate beauty and potential. So, next time you hold a crystal, remember, it’s not just about what the crystal can do for you. Instead, consider what you can co-create together.

BIO – Damla AktekinDamla Aktekin is an Inner Child Energetic Wound Healer, Inner Child Intuitive Reader and Astrologer, Crystal Healing Teacher, Soul Healing Writer, and Podcaster who helps other clients and healers move beyond the energetic wounds of their inner children and shine brighter than they thought possible. Then they can fully show up in their lives to heal themselves, their families, and their soul community.

Through her own healing journey, she discovered a unique way to approach Crystal Healing, which is based on cultivating a loving, co-creative, and respectful relationship with crystals that activates their limitless healing potential. Damla’s main teaching is that crystals aren’t things to be used but they are our loving ancestors, kin, and allies in healing and living a life of connection, abundance, creativity, and LOVE.

Her Inner Child Healing approach is unique because it is based on a guidance dream she had of visiting Egypt, which later became reality. She is the author of life-changing daily practice journals, creator of the Chakra Bliss Vault Crystal Healing Membership, and the host of the Conversations With Healers Podcast.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with Sheree Clark, an inspiring woman known as the “Midlife Courage Coach.” We discussed intuition, midlife transitions and finding courage to live life authentically.

How to Trust Yourself in MidlifeSheree became a midlife courage coach because it takes guts to live the second half of your life for yourself after spending the first half living for everyone else. This idea resonates deeply with many women as they reach midlife and begin to reconsider their purpose and priorities.

Often, Sheree’s clients grapple with how to transition from their long-standing roles as mothers, daughters, wives and career women to focus on their own dreams and desires.

This conviction for needing courage is at the heart of her coaching, where she uses creativity and unique exercises to help clients reconnect with their aspirations.

Define the UnknowableDuring the conversation, I asked Sheree about “knowing the unknowable.” This opened a fun discussion about how intuition appears. Sheree explained that intuition is often misunderstood or overlooked because it isn’t something we can easily define or rationalize.

“First, let’s define the unknowable,” Sheree began. “Sometimes people call it intuition, synchronicities, or coinkydinks.” She emphasized that everyone has moments where they just “know” something without being able to explain how they know.

These moments of clear intuition can guide you in powerful ways if you choose to listen. That’s why you want to find out how to trust yourself.

Types of IntuitionIntuition shows up in many ways, like knowing, feelings, or even hearing messages in your head. This doesn’t make you crazy! Sheree shared a personal story about walking into her home 35 years ago for the first time and knowing she would live there for a long time.

She described it as “hearing without audibleness” and stressed the importance of recognizing and trusting these intuitive moments.

Similarly, in a potentially life-threatening car accident, Sheree felt a calm and clear assurance that she would survive, despite the frightening circumstances. This sense of peace amid chaos is a hallmark of true intuition, differentiating it from fear-based reactions that cause anxiety and stress.

Why being intuitive vs. psychic are not the same.

Intuition vs. FearOne crucial aspect Sheree highlighted was being able to know the difference between intuition and fear. “When you have a sense of calm about whatever it is you’re ‘downloading,'” Sheree explained, “then it is real intuition.” Fear, on the other hand, is fraught with nervous energy, doubts and physical discomfort.

I agreed with this sentiment by sharing how I seek higher vibrations and pause before acting on messages that feel unsettling or fear driven. Intuition often accompanies feeling calm and higher energy. What matters is learning how to trust yourself.

Develop Your IntuitionTo hone intuition, Sheree advises treating it like a game. She suggests simple exercises like predicting the total amount of a grocery bill or guessing the outcomes of conversations. This playful approach helps keep the mind agile and open to inner wisdom without the pressure of being right or wrong.

We also underscored the importance of keeping a written record of intuitive insights. By tracking these moments, you can build a reliable track record and bolster self-trust. This practice not only validates intuitive abilities but also brings awareness to how often you receive valuable guidance and messages.

Learn more about relying on your inner guidance here.

Live AuthenticallyThe discussion then shifted to Sheree’s role as a Midlife Courage Coach. She emphasized that midlife is a pivotal time to reclaim your authentic self after years of prioritizing other people.

“We’ve spent our whole lives being the dutiful daughter, wife, mother, best friend, employee and boss,” Sheree commented. By midlife, these roles shift and often leave women questioning their identities.

Sheree encourages women to explore their true desires and take courageous steps towards living them. In midlife, it’s time to learn how to trust yourself. Courage, in this context, is about daring to prioritize oneself and pursuing passions that were sidelined for years.

Embrace Awe and MagicOne poignant part of the discussion was about embracing awe and magic in everyday life. Sheree explained her connection with nature and how she communicates with trees, acknowledging their sentience and presence.

This practice helps hone her inner guidance and appreciate the interconnectedness that all life has.

Again, I agreed with Sheree that noticing and cherishing magical moments expands your energy field, creating space to manifest your desires. By being present and recognizing these wonders, you can stay grounded in the here and now, which is where all power lies.

Sheree wrapped up with a powerful reminder: “Trust yourself.” Sheree’s message resonates deeply, especially for those navigating midlife transitions. Trusting your intuition and embracing the courage to live authentically allows you to open to immense opportunities, live more fully and enjoy what is.

BIO – Sheree ClarkSheree Clark is a Midlife Courage Coach who calls her practice Fork in the Road. She became a courage coach because she believes “it takes guts to live the second half of your life for you, when you’ve lived the first half for everyone else.”

Sheree has written and presented on topics ranging from managing regrets and finding your passion to overcoming career burnout. A serial entrepreneur, Sheree owned a successful advertising agency for over 25 years before pivoting to become a life coach when she was in her 50s.

But Sheree didn’t abandon the creativity of the advertising world when she started her coaching practice. She’s well-known for her fun talks and presentations as well as the unique exercises she’s developed to help clients in achieving their goals.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with my friend and admittedly biggest podcast fan, Tracy. We’ll be diving into stories with synchronicity examples, spiritual encounters, signs from the universe, and unexpected visitations.

But first, let me tell you the story of how I met Tracy.

How I Met TracyDuring an Intuitive Reading I was doing for Kristine Genovese, who developed the Bioenergetic Clearing method I often talk about, she asked me to jump in on her next meeting. She had a client, Tracy, who she thought would enjoy learning about her past lives. I agreed.

As Kristine introduced me, I recognized Tracy’s name because she had purchased a reading as a gift for her brother. Little did I know, Tracy was a big fan of my podcast. We connected instantly, and it’s been a laughter-filled friendship since.

Synchronicity ExamplesRecently, Tracy and I discussed signs and symbols, and I thought this would make a fantastic topic for the podcast. Tracy and her family have an uncanny ability to notice signs – mostly dimes appearing in the strangest places, but other meaningful symbols too.

One of Tracy’s stories involves her grandmother, who after passing away, would leave dimes for the family to find. It started when her grandmother had them open savings accounts at the Dime Savings Bank years before she died.

After her passing, the family began finding dimes in unusual places, attributing them to their grandmother’s spirit.

Notice synchronicities on your journey

Uncanny CoincidencesIn another mind-boggling story, Tracy’s grandmother announced from her hospital deathbed, that she would pass away in ten days – precisely on the anniversary of her husband’s death 35 years earlier. True to her word, she passed on that exact day.

It seems there’s a particular pattern for family members to choose significant anniversaries for their passing, marking their spiritual presence in extraordinary ways. Talk about synchronicity examples!

Objects Disappear & MaterializeTracy’s family doesn’t just find dimes. They have experienced all sorts of spiritual phenomena. Tracy shared a story about a vacation when they unexpectedly came across several Italian coins during a break from riding in the tour bus.

This unexpected discovery was a reassuring sign that their loved ones were with them, even in Tuscany.

Continuing on quirky encounters, Tracy spoke about times when objects seem to materialize or disappear only to reappear later. For instance, Tracy once saw what seemed to be a colorful coupon floating on a main road.

She felt compelled to stop the car and pick it up. As she stopped the coupon not only landed just outside the car door, but it had morphed into a real one-dollar bill! Tracy felt her Nanna had heard her request and prayers for money.

Similarly, I shared my own strange experience of a pair of jewelry pliers that went missing from my zipper bag. It was there when I closed the bag, but when I went back after lunch, it was gone. Not in the bag or anywhere.

Later, I left my desk to do something and when I returned, there were the pliers sitting with all my other jewelry making items. Another crazy synchronicity example!

Hear about Synchronicities of Love

Recipes from BeyondIn another touching tale, Tracy recounted how her brother had asked their mother for a baked egg recipe shortly before she passed away. But she couldn’t find the recipe.

After her death, the recipe miraculously appeared inside an unrelated packet about a diet Tracy’s brother had given her. It was stapled at the end but no one knew how it got there.

Plus, this additional synchronistic bit – the recipe showed up just in time for the event her brother had been planning! This reinforced their belief in their mother’s ongoing presence.

Otherworldly SignsThese stories might seem otherworldly to you and a bit far-fetched, but they bring comfort and a sense of continuity for Tracy and her family. And they really happened.

From finding dimes to recipes and more, Tracy’s experiences remind you that your loved ones are closer than you think and always watching over you.

Share Your StoryIf you have your own stories of finding signs or encountering the supernatural, I’d love to hear them! Share one of your synchronicity examples in the comments below the podcast and I might mention it in a future podcast.

Wouldn’t that be fun?

Are you curious to know what is light language? Find out what is this is really about and the amazing healing capacity that it offers in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

What Is Light Language?Let’s get right to it. I asked my guest, Elies Hadi, what the heck light language is. She explained that it’s simply an energy transmission done through sound, movement, symbols, and even art. In fact, it’s an energy healing modality.

Her personal interpretation is that light language (LL) is divine expression – the expression of divinity to your humanity.

Next, I asked Elies how she started to channel and become a light language practitioner. It’s a good story because she had a corporate job in banking and thought it was too woo woo. for her She never took a workshop or anything, but she knew other people who did this spiritual work.

One day, she took a writing workshop with her mentor, but in the middle her mentor announced, “Your light language is coming out.” Elies said “Oh no it’s not!”

Light Language ActivationThe mentor said there was something in her throat that wanted to be released. Elies agreed to try and this was her light language activation. Within just five minutes, she started speaking light language! Then she started laughing!

My guest explained that she doesn’t understand the words, but gets the overall meaning. It’s so powerful because LL works on you in a multidimensional way – at a deep cellular and soul level. It works beyond the thinking mind.

Light Language HealingIt’s really hard to interpret the words, but luckily not at all necessary. Light language can provide massive clearings for emotional issues, awaken your gifts, and even help you remember where you come from, like why you incarnated here on earth now.

Many clients have remembered the star they came from, their soul parents, and more. Often the reason for being here is learning about love. Feeling it, sharing it, and living it. That’s a great answer to the question, “What is light language and why do I need it?”

A lot of people think their purpose is something much bigger that needs to be worked on for years throughout life. But your purpose can be as simple as love, compassion, or forgiveness.

I asked Elies why light language has shown up now. It seems relatively new to me. Elies started her journey in 2014, but she thinks it’s been around a long time. People were probably speaking LL but more in private because it’s scary to come out with something that seems strange to people.

At this time, volumes of people are awakening which is why so many are activating and remembering light language as well as other energy healing methods. Another way to answer the quesion of, “What is light language?” is to realize it’s an incredible healing and awakening modality.

Remember Your OriginI thought it would be fun to hear a client story and asked Elies for one. She told a story about a client who remember her origin story back to her first name. The client had heard the name before but thought it might be a person she would meet. Instead, it turns out it was actually her own name.

But with the light language session, she remembered everything and had what felt like a marvelous home coming. And, this activated the client’s own ability to channel light language.

She’d been speaking light language since she was five, but she didn’t know what it was. Now, instead of thinking she’d been talking gibberish, she knows it was LL!

In addition, her client started to come out of the spiritual closet, beginnng with family, and slowly stepping out into the world. She also decided to combine LL with her sound healing pratice.

What else is LL compatible with? Elies says it can go well with almost any modality and two healers can work together, each doing their own thing.

Has Light Language Changed?Originally, Elies started using LL for her own personal healing. The shift could be felt rapidly. Now, her work is about deepening her ability to channel light language. She’s also learning to surrender which is a huge part of anyone’s spiritual journey.

What’s really important for people to understand about LL? Elies says that it is safe to receive it. It’s energy healing. Trust your intuition about which channeler you want to work with and try it.

A Pleiadian Message of LoveThis next part is so exciting because Elies channeled the Pleiadians! The message was very aligned with our earlier discussion about coming to earth to learn about love. They say it might sound too simple, but it is a simple truth.

Return to your essence of love and express your divinity in your everyday waking moment. Allow yourself to see and feel the energy of love before you go about your day.

Can you do and speak and live from this space of love? It can be as simple as putting your hands on your heart to shift your consciousness away from your mind.

The love you feel is only a fraction of what is available. As you continue to evolve your soul, you will experience more love in a way that you didn’t even know exists. Your mind can’t understand, yet your heart can feel it in every fiber of your being.

This is especially true when you are emotionally challenged, ask what would love do? What a beautiful message! Thank you Elies and the Pleiadians!

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m talking about the Divine Feminine Goddess. There are so many Goddesses, this will be a two-part presentation. Honestly, this topic could be a weekly podcast, itself there’s so much good stuff to cover and talk about!

So Many Goddesses!Every culture has it’s own flock of fabulous Divine Feminine Goddesses. I’m going to talk about several I am familiar with and have worked with.

The episode is organized based on the powers these Goddesses offer including help with love, healing, motherhood and fertility, children, home, abundance, wealth, warrior energy, justice, magic and the dead. Whoa, that’s a lot of stuff they provide!

The only Goddess I’ve worked with extensively is Freya. During COVID, I found a magic coach who had encouraged me to try working with a deity. Having never tried this before, I decided to give it a go.

Friday is Freya’s DayAccording to tradition, Friday is Freya’s day and for a full year, I connected with her every week. She’s a prominent Norse Goddess associated with love, fertility, war, beauty, sex, gold, and magic. Her name translates from Old Norse to “(the) Lady”.

At first nothing much happened when I’d call to her in my weekly meditation. But over time, she started to show up. In my mind, she’d walk towards me. She gave me gifts, did healing work, and sometimes spoke to me.

The healings were sensational. She’d clear energy or send me energy. I saw colors, felt sensations, and listened to her wisdom. It was always a surprise and a good experience for me.

One time I saw myself covered in protective metal all around my body. Freya began to peel it back for me. It took more than one session but it all came off.

After a year I moved on, but I still feel drawn to this divine feminine goddess Freya,. I found this amazing prayer which will be in the blog post that accompanies the podcast on the breatheloveandmagic.com website or you request a copy by email – ronnie[@]intuitiveedge.biz

Freya’s Prayer“Freya Goddess of gold and love, please inspire me today. Teach me to walk through my day with pride in my own being, with confidence and power. Goddess of fiery passion, bless me with the insight to the marrow of my bone that I am a person of worth in the eyes of the Gods and of myself. May I radiate this and transform all I meet.

This is my prayer for this day or great and powerful goddess that I might mirror your presence throughout my day. And in return, I shall praise you always and lay amber before your image, consigning it to the scared fires that burn when the day is at its longest. Hail Freya, shining Goddess of gold and love.”

I just love that! Must be from my Viking lifetimes – LOL!

When working with a divine feminine Goddess, it’s important to feel drawn to her and relate to her. It’s also a good practice to offer gifts which could be water, wine or liquor, honey, sweets, flowers, incense, light a candle, etc.

Appealing to HecateI’ve been told that you need to be careful working with deities because if you want something from them and ask for their help and get it, then you’ll owe them. And apparently they’ll take what they want even if it’s a sacrifice.

Thankfully, I have not had this experience. I once reached out to Hecate when I was at a crossroads in my life. I was told a very specific way to reach out and contact her when asking her for help.

In case you don’t know, Hecate is the Goddess of magic, crossroads, and witchcraft from ancient Greek religion and myth and often lived or visited the underworld. She’s can be depicted as a Goddess with three heads thought to represent the past, present and future.

Naturally, I changed the ritual because I’m a rebel. I was told Hecate prefers the dark of night, to go alone, and stand at a crossroads to connect with her. Don’t laugh at me but I’m too chicken to do this at night! I haven’t like the dark since childhood.

Instead, I stood at the edge of the wild area behind my home that is open space and untouched. I called to the Divine Feminine Goddess, Hecate, saying her name nine times which is a Feng Shui trick, and singing her name in a tune that just came into my head while standing there.

Then I asked her my question. I waited quietly until I heard her speak to me, reassuring me I was headed in the right direction.

I had also left an aluminum pie plate with fortune cookies as an offering. My research found that she likes crescent shaped cookies like the moon, so fortune cookies were close and I put honey on them.

Butterfly SignsAs I opened my eyes, I saw two black butterflies and when I looked up the meaning, it was a message of joy, freedom, love, and hope. Always good to hear. Of course butterflies are also a sign of transformation since they do the whole caterpillar chrysalis thing.

But I felt quite satisfied with this exchange. The next day I went to retrieve the pie plate. It was completely empty with not a crumb or smudge of honey remaining! The animals must have enjoyed or perhaps a goddess…

Abundantia – A Roman GoddessThe other Divine Feminine Goddess I’ve been working with recently is Abundantia – the Roman Goddess of abundance. She provides prosperity, success and preservation of wealth.

I rediscovered her in the fall last year and couldn’t believe it but I had a postcard of her on my shelf in my office for years! I didn’t know who she was but I loved the artwork when I got this and I don’t remember where it came from.

Those are three of my extraordinary Goddess stories. My work with Goddesses also includes a Goddess deck of cards by Doreen Virtue. And for six months the spiritual book club I’m in focused on the book Archangels and Ascended Masters which included a lot of Goddesses also by Doreen Virtue. Each week we’d learn about a different goddess, angel or master – so cool!

Now I’m going to go through a list of Goddesses chosen by their gifts and powers . Today I’ll cover Abundance, Home, and Warrior Energy. To hear about each one, you’ll have to listen to the podcast episode.

Abundance & Prosperity* Abundantia * Lakshmi * Aeracura * Dana

What Marina loves about being a hypnotherapist and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) practitioner is being able to help clients in a short amount of time to shift, change, and reinvent themselves to bring magic into their lives.

Are You Willing to Play?Her biggest surprise with client success was one woman who had a significantly sized cyst that had been around for seven years. She had scheduled surgery and wasn’t looking forward to the process.

Marina asked her if she was willing to play to see what happens and her client responded, “Yes, I’m in!” So, they did four sessions. The first few were about helping her feel better about herself, healing the trauma that seemed connected to the cyst.

In the fourth session, Marina had her client go into a trance, but she also went into an altered state herself. She saw the mass in her clients body and was suddenly handed a light-saber scapel and she removed the dark mass in her vision.

There was also a spirit she recognized that came to help her. Finishing up by adding lots of light into the affected area, the session was complete.

Create Magic TogetherAccording to Marina, both the client and the practitioner need to work together to create the magic. She shared with her client what she had seen during the vision and what transpired.

Later that day, the client went to her pre-op exam and the tech told her there was no evidence of the cyst which had been documented and carefully watched for seven years! It had completely disappeared! They were both thrilled.

Was it spirit? Marina? The client? Yes, Marina says all of it contributed to this incredible story. Marina facilitated the energy and acts as a conduit for the energy.

St. Germain’s Violet FlameNext, I shared an experience of watching a healing take place. A friend of mine had cancer and was under going chemo prior to surgery to shrink the mass. She was very dedicated to meditating during her chemo treatments, imagining the chemo winning the battle and eating away at all the cancer in her body.

I had been experimenting with St. Germain’s Violet Flame which is supposed to be a strong healing energy. I picture my friend standing on a massive purple lotus blossom with a wire arc like an arbor that she stood beneath. It was sort of shaped like a light bulb. And this wire had little purple flames all along it.

Then I invited the Violet Flame to come in and heal her and what shocked me was in this vision, my friend was totally engulfed in these flames. They burned for several minutes and then the flames started to disappate and finally stopped. Somehow I knew this meant she was going to or had healed herself.

A couple months later, she called to tell me a story. Half way through the surgery, the doctor came out to talk to her husband. She explained that the hysterectomy had been completed, however there was absolutely no evidence of cancer. That’s why the surgery took half the time expected.

What? That blew me away. I don’t take credit for that healing because my friend did a lot of work on her own. But Marina pointed out I contributed by faciliating the Violet Flame with her. Amazing, right?

What Do You Want?Moving on, I asked Marina how she can help people with more every day stuff vs. the catastrophic. She explained the first thing to do is to ask her clients what they want. This is the hardest thing because she said most people are very familiar with what they don’t want, but unsure of what they do want.

Then she works to identify the fear or trauma that is interfering with the client’s desire by going into trance. What is behind the behavior they want to change. The subconscious mind works to figure this out.

The client doesn’t have to dig in the muck, but simply identify what happened as the source. And they don’t even have to share the details with her.

Next, they work to change the perspective about what happened that holds them back, so they can shift the behavior.

Lastly, She assists the client to see the future they want to live and create, which leaves the person in an empowered and positive state. The magic is to see themselves thinner, sober, or happier (whatever they want) and this improved future pulls them foward to it.

Your Mind Is Like an OrchestraEveryone is madeup of many parts like an orchestra – the drums, the horns, and the string section. Marina asks the subconscious which part is not playing in harmony and then they work on that part to get back into harmony. Plus, there are ways to calm yourself if anxiety or fear are getting in the way.

NLP is practical and designed to look at solutions. Marina noticed that most self-help books talk about the problem but offer few solutions. But that’s what NLP is great at.

You imagine the scene you don’t like and you create a scene you do like, shake them up and focus on the unpleasant scene shrinking into non-existence. What remains is the scene you do want!

How Marina Got StartedI asked Marina how did she come to this place of doing this work. For many years, Marina admitted her spirituality and metaphysical interest was in the closet, so to speak.

But then her mother asked her to help get her book published. Her mom was very spiritual too and she felt comfortable being open to that with her. That was the start of her journey to be more public with her beliefs.

For herself though, she had a good business and didn’t want to go in the spiritual direction – thinking it wasn’t for her. Letters requesting to buy her busienss started to come in and she resisted this idea feeling that her busienss was good and she would keep going.

However, the Unvierse had other ideas and Marina thinks because she didn’t listen, her business started to fail and she had to close it. Distraught over how this impacted her employees, she felt shame and guilt over leaving them in a lurch.

The Big MomentOne day while jogging, she felt suddenly like she was having a heart attack. Grabbing her chest, Marina was so upset and scared. But she heard a voice say it was just a warning, yet if she kept up with the guilt, it could be real next time.

Marina needed to release the shame and guilt which were holding her back. She also heard to follow her path – “her father’s” path. To Marina this was clearly the heavenly father being spoken of and the spiritual path.

The next step was to get some tools and she learned several, but then found the clinical hypnosis and NLP combination training which was perfect for her.

There’s more to this interview, but you’ll hvae to listen to get the rest.

I’m very excited to share something new I learned today. If you’re into goal setting and manifesting, this essential step is about why it’s important to set realistic goals and what you need to focus on.

I was listening to Kevin Schmidlin from Grow the Show podcast and his message totally resonated with me. It’s like all the pieces fell into place. Or the tumblers clicked to crack a safe. Yeah, it’s really that good.

Kevin did an amazing job of explaining how to set goals in a way that makes a huge difference. His point is that most people set goals the wrong way which leaves them disappointed, devastated, and often leads to giving up. Throwing in the towel and doing that too soon.

I’ve been there – what about you? You set a goal, you do your manifesting and then…nothing.

Focusing on the Wrong ThingHere’s how Kevin explained it. He used the example of losing weight. Let’s say you have a goal like he did to lose 50 lbs. It’s all he could think about. He’d get really serious, focus on taking the steps needed, lose about 20 lbs and then, he’d stop.

It was taking longer than he thought and instead of being excited that he lost the 20 lbs, he was mad he hadn’t lost 50. He set a goal but never seemed to get there.

What is that about? Has that happened to you? I’ve been there not just for weightloss, but also for other goals. The truth is this applies to anything you want to achieve. Any goal you set. Any manifesting you put your mind too.

So what went wrong? It wasn’t that he didn’t know how to feel what it would be like to lose 50 lbs. Kevin could imagine and visualize that. It wasn’t that he didn’t know how to lose weight or what would be required, because in fact he did lose weight. The same 20 lbs. over and over again.

Okay then, what’s the real problem here? Well, Kevin said he focused on the wrong thing. He focused on the end result – the 50 lbs. This is why it’s important to set realistic goals. Maybe 50 lbs. was just too much and was taking too long.

Turns out that demotivated him every time he thought about how he wasn’t there yet. Every time he stepped on the scale! And he’d give up. Sounds crazy but I really get it. I’ve been there too.

Instead, Focus on the Action StepsKevin did eventually lose not 50 but 120 lbs. How? He changed his mindset. And it worked. He changed his goals to 1) Run a mile three times a week and 2) Eat smaller portions and fewer snacks. These are the goals that worked for him. When his goal was to lose 50 lbs. he couldn’t do it.

Why? Because every time he stepped on the scale and hadn’t reached his goal, he felt like a failure! He was sad about his goal. That goal made him feel bad about himself every single time he stepped on the scale.

This put him into a lower vibration. His goal was counterproductive and totally undermined his ability to get there.

Kevin explained that here is nothing wrong with lofty goals. I’d say use that for your manifesting focus. However, for the day-to-day, what works far better, is to keep your eyes on the actions you need to take.

For Kevin, this was to eat less and exercise three times a week. When he kept his focus on the actions he needed to take, he found he stayed motivated and kept going.

He was happy with himself that he kept his word to himself and follow through on these two actions. Focusing on the day-to-day actions allowed him to stay motivated by a long-term goal and number that was far away.

Can you see how this might apply to almost anything you want to achieve?

Setting Business GoalsMaybe you want to make six figures. Okay, that’s a great goal, right? That might be a stretch for you or you might already be at $80K and it’s not that far away. Focus your manifesting there. But for the day-to-day, what steps do you need to take? What actions are required to make $100K?

Maybe you need to post on Instagram stories every day and do three reels a week. Or you want to become an awesome newsletter writer and send them out 2-3 times a week. Maybe you need to do five podcast interviews every month.

You get the idea. These are action steps that lead you to getting clients and earning $100K.

Now, if you only focus on the number $100K, and by September of that year you are no where near your goal, what will happen? As you look at your sales and you haven’t hit the target tiem after time, how will you feel?

You might be sad, disappointed, angry, or unhappy. The target feels too far away. You start to perceive it as imposible. This is why it’s so important to set realistic goals.

Look at What You Did DoBut if you focus on hitting your social media goals, your podcast interview numbers, or writing killer newsletters, then you can feel success. Why? Because you did those things! You kept your promise to yourself, followed through, and took the actions.

You can count on yourself and that is another way to look at your success. It’s a way where you can win every month or even every week. You can hit those targets and feel good about yourself. You can be a success in these daily ways.

So, while you are manifesting the big picture – your audacious goal of $100K, you can have win after win based on your daily efforts.

Why This MattersBecause as humans, we tend to beat ourselves up. We’re really good at it, right? You know what I mean? You are likely well practiced at giving yourself a hard time and feeling bad about yourself.

That’s why shifting to actions steps vs. the end goal makes such a dramatic difference. Because it provides a surefire way for you to succeed in the short term on the way to the big goal. All you need to do is set action goals and complete them.

See why it’s important to set realistic goals? If you do this, you’ll feel good about yourself. Your vibe stays higher. That makes you even more attractive and magnetic for your bigger manifesting picture.

You get a hit of dopamine which is the feel good hormone. Feeling good about yourself happens as a result of taking action and following through. You kept your promise to yourself that’s awesome! You have wins all along the way. That makes you a winner. Can you see that?

Dating to Find LoveOkay, let’s look at another area. Dating and looking for love. My goal when I was 40 and looking for love was to meet lots of men, so I could find the one partner who was right for me.

I dated 30 men in 15 months. Now obviously, most of those dates didn’t work out. The majority were just one time. That’s it. A few guys came back to 2-3 dates. A couple did more than five dates.

In case you want to know more about my love story, click here.

Then #30 was totally consistent, kept asking me out and calling. He was nice, fun, and I felt good around him. That’s the man I married.

However, there were some pretty horrible dates where I came home and cried. Dates who were rude, awkward, not interested in me or I wasn’t interested in them. I’d wonder what was wrong with me and why I couldn’t get anyone to stick.

About half way through my dating journey, I had a mindset shift. I would dust myself off and cheer myself up with these thoughts:

“I’m taking action. I’m meeting men. And every man I meet brings me one man closer to the right man for me. It’s a number game and I’m playing to win!”

I knew the only way to find lasting love was to keep dating. Every man I met was more evidence that there were plenty of men and I just had to meet enough to find that one good one for me. That’s part of my manifesting love method that lead to success!

Don’t Quit!Yet, many women I know and past clients wanted to quit after 5 or 10 dates. They want to meet the right partner fast and don’t want to really go through this process. They are focused only on what they think of as the prize – the ideal partner for lasting love.

After every date where things didn’t work out, they felt bad and felt like a loser. They were miserable because they hadn’t found the one yet and threw in the towel. It felt too hard and they gave up too soon.

On the other hand, my clients who kept going – they found lasting love with the right partner. Because they didn’t quit. They knew that it was just a matter of time. A matter of numbers and they kept meeting new prospects.

This is the same mindset shift Kevin used to lose not 50 lbs. but 120! This is the same goal business owners use to make 6 figures and more.

Your VibeLet’s get back to how this works. No matter what your goal is, if it’s a long game, make that your manifesting goal. Then think about what steps will get you there. What do you need to do consistently to achieve your long-term goal?

Decide what the actions are and then promise yourself you will do them. Focus on the action daily. It’s important to set realistic goals so you can count your wins for every day, week and month and hte actions you complete. Celebrate all those wins and feel really good about yourself.

The more time you spend feeling good and taking action, the higher your vibe goes, the easier it is to manifest your big goal or outcome.

When people talk about manifesting, they make it seem like all you have to do is believe it. But is that really enough? On occasion I have seen it happen or heard about it.

The truth is, for most goals, you have to believe you can do it, and then you have to do the work to get there. Identify the action and take it. Are you with me? You can tell I’m very excited about this

How About You?What do you want to accomplish? Is there a big goal you’ve been dreaming of? Take yourself seriously. Now you know why it’s important to set realistic goals.

Think about the steps you need to take. Research if you have to so you can learn what needs to be done. Ask experts, read articles, use AI, get a coach and use your intuition! Pull out all the stops and then get it done.

I hope I got you fired up like I am. I’m very excited and my goal today was to share that with you. I sure hope you’re feeling positive and energized and come up with the actions that are right for you.

Have you heard of cyclical living or womb work? Are you fully connected to your body? In this episode, we talk about earth medicine and the 3Ms – Mindfulness, Meditation, & Mushrooms, which can help you heal and reconnect with the divine feminine and your body!

Psychedelic Guide & Embodiment CoachI asked Leslie how she became a psychedelic guide and sensual embodiment coach. For 20 years, Leslie had been numbing out as a result of being in a spiral of shame after contracting the herpes virus at just 18.

Growing up with a father who was a preacher from the deep south, having herpes made her feel was worthless. She got addicted to achieving, hustling, and proving to the outside world that she was worthy, good enough, and lovable.

Leslie landed a job as a TV news anchor, so from a societal viewpoint, it looked like she had it all together with great job and salary. Yet, she was seriously stuck and burned out. She tried western medicine with a therapist and a psychiatrist, taking a prescriptions and doing talk therapy.

Mindfulness, Meditation & MushroomsLater, Leslie found mindfulness, meditation, connecting with her menstrual cycle. Then she discovered magic mushrooms (also referred to as earth medicine) which helped her come home to her body and get sober.

This is how Leslie forged a path to connect with who she is on the inside and live from a place of grounded, sensual embodiment.

I was curious what the biggest contributor was that moved her from shame to the empowered woman she is today. Leslie explained it started with reclaiming her sensuality and connecting to her feminine energy through her cycle.

She was on hormonal birth control for 16 years and that was the epitome of living in the masculine with overachieving, people pleasing, and perfectionist tendencies and behavior.

Coming off the pill she had a lot of hormonal issue afterwards. She had to come back to her body and understand what sensuality and pleasure really is. This caused her to revisit some of her beliefs adopted while growing up in the church. Ideas like pleasure is sinful or dirty.

Live More SensuallyLeslie started to understand how much pleasure and sensuality allows you to be present in the moment. This discovery helped her tackle anxiety, depression, and the PTSD she was diagnosed with from her TV career.

Living in her head most of the time, she was often thinking about the future or the past, rather than living in the present moment. That’s the beauty of connecting with sensual pleasure (vs. sexual pleasure) which helped her come back to herself. The shift was magnified by working with earth medicine – magic mushrooms.

Her Spiritual AwakeningIn January of 2019, Leslie had her spiritual awakening. Under the wolf full moon, she felt totally activated with the crown to the root chakra completely lit up. Today she understand this was kundalini energy.

She spent the year learning about meditating, crystals, tarot, astroglogy, and more. Leslie stumbled on a group called the Golden Yoni membership from Australia, which is a wonderful community focused on sensuality, pleasure, and how that can be healing.

This is where the gate started to open for her, as she began integrating her mind and body.

The real shift however, came from the magic mushrooms (earth medicine), when she stopped intellectualizing everything and finally embodied the healing and learning. Leslie learned to slow down and be present in the now and feels she was divinely guided to these amazing teachers.

Earth Medicine & MicrodosingMicrodosing is about taking a very small amount with a session lasting about 90-minutes without any tripping. Yet, this is still highly effective. Microdosing is a slower, more gentle, and compassionate way to work with mushrooms.

While I’ve never taken mushooms or Ayahuasca, I know many who have. People are astonished by what they learned about themselves, life, and the world.

Leslie had a coach to help her through the trip and integrate the learning which she feels was a must. Becoming educated about what she was doing allowedher to particpate safely.

Having grown up in the 90s with the D.A.R.E. program, where police spoke at elementary schools about drugs, she had a strong fear of taking mushrooms. Now here she is teaching people how to work therapeutically with things that society still labels as drugs.

Emotions Stuck in Your BodyWhat she discovered was how much women internalize and hold inside the facia (muscle tissue). Your body holds a lot of emotion, including your cycle, the womb and sex.

After seeing how much psychedelics can help women uncover these layers, Leslie was driven to get educated and become a coach in this field.

There’s a difference in using mushrooms for recreation vs. therapy, which boils down to the intention behind what you’re doing. If you’re looking to heal, then you want to do the prep work before consuming the earth medicine.

The next step is the journey or trip and the last part is the integration which happens last. Therapeutically, Leslie helps people to think about what you want to find in and what your intention is. Then she creates a safe environment and uses a controlled amount of mushrooms to provide a positive experience.

Patriarchy & Hormones Leslie explained how living in a patriarchal society means you’re expected to maintain the same emotions every day the way men’s hormones work. That was an eye opener!

This is what male hormones are like – very constant. Men have a 24 hour cycle, so from day to day they are far more consistent then women are. Female hormones are more similar to the moon, where month after month women are consistent. However, day-to-day it can be quite different.

As Leslie came off hormonal birth control, she began to understand the important phases of the feminine cycle. Learning about her own cycle, she changed her lifestyle, diet, and workout schedule which helped tremendously, so she felt more at ease with herself

When you choose to live with “Cycle Sync,” that makes life easier, but may look pretty wild to people who don’t menstruate. Syncing with your cycle makes it easier to handle mood swings, get more done, and live a life that feels good.

Isn’t that better than dreading your period every month? You’ll understand why you feel blah, energized or sexually driven at different times.

Discover how to be confident in your body

Take Change SlowlyOne important message Leslie shared was trying not to do everything all at once. Change one or two things and see how it goes rather than do everything in one fell swoop.

There’s no rush to get to a place of healing. Mindfulness and journaling helped her process tremendously.

The microdosing earth medicine helped with healing the shame around her body and being female. Those beliefs deeply impacted her physical life and experience on the planet.

She had many epiphanies through the mushrooms that allowed her to speak her truth and make big changes in her life.

There’s much more to this episode like the four phases of your cycle and how to leverage each one. Enjoy Leslie’s entire interview which is insightful, inspiring, and helpful.

Did you ever have synchronicity and coincidences that don’t seem to connect and then somehow magically it all becomes clear? That’s what I’m talking about in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

This is a new installment of my spiritual journey to nowhere with no map and no guide, that began last summer. I did another shaman journey which provided incredible insights to help me see how much I needed balance. It seems to be relevant to many people right now and you might see that for yourself.

Tips to Let Go from My Journey https://intuitiveedge.biz/tips-to-let-go-the-adventure-continues-with-this-podcast-snack/

A Web of Synchronicity and CoincidencesThis is a convoluted story that rambles a bit. There are many pieces that tie together for a happy surprise ending, so I hope you’ll be patient with me and hang in there to hear how things miraculously came together.

It started with those momentous solar flares between May 3-9. Solar flares definitely influence people’s moods and I sort of felt the brunt of it in a couple of difficult family exchanges that were unsettling.

These conversations disturbed me because I could not understand what these people were saying frankly or why they said those things. I spent far too much time pondering what this was about. When you have uncomfortable interactions with more than one person in a few days, you have got to look at yourself.

I wondered how I was contributing to these unpleasant exchanges. Did I do anything wrong that caused the altercations? Nothing came to me. However, as I later discovered the reason for the arguments was not at all what I thought originally.

Inspired Art JournalingThe next piece of the story definitely appears to be unrelated. It’s not, but you won’t see the connection yet. I often get together with a good friend Dawn who moved to the other side of the country. One way we stay in touch is to have zoom calls where we both create art journal pieces.

I had this photo showing a woman from the back in a flowy pale lavender dress walking on a path between lavender plantings. It looks like Italy or maybe Southern France and is so beautiful.

The photo has a peaceful feeling and I wanted to be in that photo myself. I framed this photo with a border, adding a bird, a fairy, and some other flowers with leaves.

I wanted to give it a title and wondered where the woman was walking. Finally it hit me – it looked like the Path of Ease and Grace. Trust me when I tell you this is spirit inspired. I don’t know much about the path of ease and grace, but I sure would like to get familiar with it LOL.

A Shaman JourneyA couple days later, I sat down to listen to a shaman journey from a class I signed up for. At 8:30 in the morning, I listening to this hour-long recorded class and meditated going on a shaman journey.

By 9:30 I was finished with loads of insights that were astonishing! So much was revealed I can’t wait to share all the pieces with you.

You Need BalanceThe first thing was to ask Mother Earth what I need to work on and the message I heard was “Balance.” Then I remembered I’d heard before about 6-8 weeks earlier when I was doing intuitive work with my friend Carrie.

Oh yeah – that’s what I’m supposed to be working on! How did I forget that? Talk about synchronicity and coincidences!

I also heard to walk the earth to feel balanced more easily and to be unbothered, steady, and filled with grace. Oh that connects with my piece of artwork – with it’s title The Path of Ease and Grace. How synchronistic, right?

Release IndignationThe next piece of the shaman journey was to connect with jaguar and ask what I need to let go of. Immediately I heard “Indignation.” Indignation? I decided to Google it. The definition is “Feeling irked because you feel like you are being treated unfairly.” Bingo – how right on the money was that?

Having all these upsetting discussions with family causing me to feel indignant. What I learned was that if I’m constantly shocked and upset with people, then I’m always in a state of indignation which is not balanced.

Oh synchronicity and coincidences! It would help if I was more like the willow, bending and swaying and not be bothered by people so much. Too much time is spent trying to understand why things get said that upset me.

If I want be more balanced and on the Path of Ease and Grace, I have to let go of indignation. I get it! This is why I had several unpleasant exchanges. Each one gave me another chance to stay balanced and let go of indignation.

Yet, I did not do that. Instead, I frittered away my energy feeling bad, wondering why this was happening, and desperately trying to understand. I’m human.

Indignation Vs. ContentmentThe next thought that came into my head was, what is the opposite of indignation? So back to Google where I discovered that antonym is contentment! I am giving up feeling content because I’m so focused about being indignant about how people treat me!

Is that a trade off I want to make? No! I do not want to miss out on contentment!

What Holds Me Back?The next animal was hummingbird. I asked what holds me back from my child-like playfulness, joy, and having fun. The vision that came showed me metal bars around my heart and throat chakras, protecting me. At the same time, this protection prevents me from childlike fun.

My solution was to melt the metal bars and allow the liquid metal to flow out of my body, freeing me up for more playfulness!

Next, hummingbird gave me a gift which was freedom! Imagine that! Freedom from wasting time on indignation that brings me no pleasure or playfulness. Freedom from being bothered by others, so I can get on the Path of Ease and Grace. Thank you hummingbird, I’ll take freedom any day!

What Do I Need to Release?Next up was the eagle who has a higher perspective given how high they fly. I asked what I need to let go of and I heard the answer loud and clear. “Let go of my lack of trust.”

Oh that resonated deeply – its so true. I do not 100% trust the Universe or my path to get me where I want to go.

But that is another situation showing me why I do not walk the Path of Ease and Grace, right? How can I if I don’t trust that the Universe has my back? Obviously I do have a good amount of trust or I couldn’t do this intuitive work.

Yet, there’s a part of me that worries and doubts, just like anyone else. And the part of me that is frustrated with how things are going which impinges on my ability to believe for sure.

Walk My Path With TrustWhat becomes available of I release my lack of trust? Trust of course! How amazing would that be to walk my path with trust? What if I truly believed on a deeper level that the Universe had my back and everything was working out perfectly for me?

That would be the Path of Ease and Grace wouldn’t it? It sure would. Perhaps you’re starting to see why this feels so earth shattering to me. This is the web of synchronicity and coincidences and it’s quite magical!

Next I asked my soul for insight about what had been revealed and got a message. I heard that when I release lack of trust and the distraction of indignation, I can walk a higher path – the one my soul is meant to take.

Stop Limiting JoyI hold myself back by worrying, trying to understand, and feeling indignant about these altercations. That’s why all these disagreements were happening! Not because I did something to bring them on.

Each one was another opportunity for me to stay balanced rather than be distracted or allow my life force to be drained. How much time is wasted that limits my joy?

Holy moly. To stay more balanced, I have to learn to not be as bothered by these eruptions. That’s big isn’t it? Quite a revelation thanks to synchronicity and coincidences.

When I spend my time in indignation, it’s draining, exhausting, and depressing. I lose focus and clarity as I focus on other people instead of myself. Duh? Of course there’s no pleasure in walking the path of indignation! How can there be?

More Synchronicity and CoincidencesThere is one last area that spirit or my soul shared with me but before I tell you that, I have to fill you in on another part of this web of synchronicity and coincidences.

I had been waiting 10 days for this appointment with a representative of a doctor who claimed to have a solution for some health symptoms I’ve been having. This appointment was the same day I did the shaman journey, just two hours later.

I paid $97 for the appointment. Honestly, I was a little unnerved by the whole thing so I decided to be honest with the guy on zoom and tell him how I was feeling about the whole thing.

First I told him I felt the marketing was heavy-handed. They sent me 3 reminders that morning for an 11am appointment. Do they think I’m an idiot?

I also shared I was worried the program would be more than $5,000, and not too sure how I felt about this doctor, since I got him off the web. All that got said in less than five minutes.

Time for a RefundHow did the health consultant respond? He said, “I think I’m going to give you a refund.” Are you kidding me? Now I’m mad. I said to the guy, I waited 10 days for this appointment, I paid the money and we are here right now on zoom. Just give me the pitch, what are you chicken?

Apparently yes, because he said we couldn’t work together. Then he gave in a little and said, “What if I tell you the doctor will not work with you unless your husband joins you on this call?”

OK, I’ve been in the coaching/online marketing world for 22 years. I know a high ticket sale pitch when I hear one. That question about my spouse had been on their questionnaire which I responded by saying this was a private matter and my husband would not join me.

This is a sales technique that is used for expensive thigns like a time share – they want both people there so they can get agreement upfront because it’s a high ticket sale and they don’t want to hear later that the husband said no. I’ve even seen this done by some high-end business coaches.

Light Bulbs & MiraclesThat set me on fire. What a chauvinistic practice! What if I was single or a widow? Would I need a husband’s permission then? I felt fury building and indignation brewing.

All of a sudden, the light bulb went on and I took a deep breath. I looked this guy right in the eye and said, “You’re right, please give me a refund.” The call ended and I gave a huge sigh of relief.

I finally got it! I figured out why this annoying appointment came to me. It wasn’t to handle my health concern. It was to give me yet another chance to avoid draining my life force on indignation! And I did really well – yay!

I was shaken but also excited. Somehow I had returned to a calm place and rather than feeling all fired up I agreed a refund was the best thing. Finding my center, I remembered that I’m working on balance and let it go with ease and grace. It’s a miracle!

Message from My SoulAs soon as I hung up from that guy, I went back to my journal where I had recorded the shaman journey. Then I reread the last message my soul had provided. This is when the intensity of synchronicity came on full force.

Here’s what I wrote which I did not remember or think about once I closed the journal after finishing writing about my shaman journey experience two hours earlier.

“Today when you talk to the health consultant, hold yourself strong, contain your energy, and remember to stay balanced. No one says he’s right, or his way is the only way. There are many ways up the mountain to heal yourself and his is not the only way. Stay balanced, do not give your power away through fear or indignation.”

Talk about synchronicity and coincidences! Such incredible advice and I thought – wow, that’s major and I did it. When I wrote that I didn’t think much about it. But after that call, when I reread the passage, I could not believe what a magical message that was. Perfection!

Something for You in This MessageI share this with you today, as part of my spiritual journey to nowhere because there might just be something in this message for you as well.

  • Where do you need to return to balance?
  • What’s happening in your world that you don’t understand?
  • What might be an opportunity for you to work through something on your soul path?

So, that is my amazing story of seemingly unconnected synchronicity and coincidences that helped me understand why I was having trouble with family members. I got a great reminder to stay balanced, avoid indignation so I can walk a higher Path of Ease and Grace.

Have you thought about what happens when you pass on? Do you believe in life after life? That’s what this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast is all about.

Is There an Afterlife?I started by asking my guest, Annette Marinaccio, author of Your Soul Focus, how she came to be a believer in the afterlife. She said she assumed that when you were dead, you were dead. That’s it. She hadn’t really even considered if life went on after that.

Then her mother-in-law (Lucille) crossed over and things started to happen. She had been close to her mother-in-law, who became insistant on proving that she was still around. To think that you go on and can be actively involved with the people you leave behind on earth was not something Annette had ever thought about before.

Spirit Left Her BreadcrumbsBreadcrumb #1

Lucille enlisted other ancestors and spirit guides help Annette open up to this idea of the afterlife. Annette hadn’t thought much about spirit guides being real either. This determined group left her breadcrumbs, one after another, helping her catch on that there was something more after crossing over.

Annette was quite grateful that her helpers in spirit approached this awakening slowly, giving her numbers-oriented, accountant mind time to get used to the idea.

It took her a long time to accept this and admit that there was truth to the afterlife. Before that Annette had never thought much about how or if the dead communicate with the living.

Curious about speaking with those on the other side?

Then in 2006, her mother-in-law passed. A few days later, her daughter at the breakfast table told Annette that Grandma Lucille had left her pompoms at school the day before which she called a gift.

Her daughter was making a handmade card and selected 11 red and 11 green pompoms. She left them on the table and when she returned, two more that mysteriously appeared. One lavender and the other ivory which were the same colors as the balloons the family had released at the gravesite. This was the first breadcrumb!

Now Annette felt worried about her daughter. Was this some kind of grieving thing? She started telling everyone to get feedback on what she assumed was a hallucination.

Breadcrumb #2

When she told this story to her long-term friend, the woman asked her, “Do believe in life after life Annette?” That was the second breadcrumb. Now she’s discovered that a dear friend of 10 years believed in the afterlife.

Breadcrumb #3

The third breadcrumb was when this same friend mentioned a medium, Josephine Ghiringhelli, that she had visited several times to speak to her deceased loved ones and get practical answers to questions.

Annette tucked that away. Soon after, she went to dinner with the family and saw a poster at the restaurant promoting dinner and show with the very same medium! Coincidence or synchronicity?

Annette went to that show and her mother-in-law came through with flying colors and lots of details. There was no doubt about who was providing the message – it was Lucille for sure.

Reading EverythingOnce Annette came to believe in the life after life, she started reading everything she could get her hands on about reincarnation and the afterlife. She took a lot of metaphysical classes as well because she needed to learn and understand the other side.

Her main question was, “If we go on, what are we doing here, now?” Good question, right?

One of the most important message that often comes from relatives on the other side is to simply let their loved ones know they are OK after passing.

Annette said she heard a lot of negative comments about how mediums are praying upon those in grief. But she wasn’t in deep grief – she was anxious to learn and no one was taking advantage of her. That wasn’t her experience at all.

We talked about the different ways the information comes to the mediums – through all the clairs including seeing, hearing, feeling, knowing, smelling, touching and even taste!

Listen to more on mediumship

Your Family Is With YouWhat I understand about spirit is that we are light beings, so we can fractionate ourselves and be in many places at the same time. That means your soul could be in many bodies living different lives at the same time, different times, and in other realities. It’s such a different level of existence, sometimes its hard to fathom.

This is why your deceased family members can be learning and doing things on the other side and still visit and help you! Do you believe in life after life? I hope you do by now!

Annette and I talked about so many things in the podcast including:

  • Dreams about people alive or dead
  • How your guides and angels are called in when you’re very emotional
  • Our favorite books on this topic
  • How a story from her book ended up in a Saturday Night Live skit!
  • How Annette’s grandmother taught her baby daughter to sing a song after she passed!
  • And so much more!

Listen this weekend to enjoy the entire fun interview.

Bio – Annette MarinaccioAnnette is a Certified Public Accountant, an accomplished healthcare executive, and the author of Your Soul Focus. Annette’s mother-in-law led her on a path after she died to prove to her that there is an afterlife.

After understanding that the afterlife exists, Annette learned how intricate and extensive our souls and our journeys are. It’s fascinating! The information that Annette has accumulated and conveyed has a clear and deep benefit to others during their times of need, grief, or curiosity, and Your Soul Focus will pass that knowledge to you.

Does your sense of style accurately reflected the real you? Imagine feeling fabulous in your clothes. Now you can with an Intuitive Stylist!

Becoming an Intuitive StylistI started by asking Susan Padron, how she became an intuitive stylist. She answered that she always loved dressing people and finding clothes that allow people to see themselves as she sees them. The outfits reflect how they appear to her on the inside.

In her youth as she started going to the mall with friends, that’s where it all began. But she didn’t know she could even be a personal stylist. So, she became a middle school music teacher. However, style stayed in her orbit.

After she had a son and took time off, a friend told Susan she liked what she picked for her better than anything she got from her subscription box. The friend suggested Susan get a job with one of those clothing services.

That’s when the lightbulb went on about being a personal stylist! Susan dove in exploring how to become a personal stylist, working with mentors and taking classes. Finally, she left teaching and started out on her own.

Right about then, she also began her spiritual journey and it all just somehow came together. That’s why today she uses her intuition to select some of the clothing and help with style.

Style and SpiritualitySusan taps into her guides who explain how the options will help her client. Sometimes the items help clients to see what they are capable of or the outfit makes the person sparkle.

Style is a different aspect of spiritual growth versus intuition or healing. Yet, your personal presentation represents how you feel about yourself and influences how you vibrate. It sends signals to the Universe, saying what you are ready for and what is to come.

Susan doesn’t talk about trends much or body types. Instead, she sees personal style as an outward expression of yourself. It’s about how to feel your best regarding what you wear.

During a transitional period in a client’s life, how they react to their clothing can change. A power dress from an old job might not work the same way in a new position.

Clothing Holds EnergyYour old clothes hold energy and when you evolve or shift, you are no longer in alignment with that outfit. It’s a past version of you that you evolved out of. It can no longer support you in the same way today so, let it go!

I asked Susan, “Isn’t fashion today more about self-expression rather than what looks good?” We talked about some outfits I’ve seen that I thought were awful because they did nothing to enhance a person’s looks.

Susan responded that she wants to challenge the term “flattering” which is typically rooted in a fat-phobic mindset that women are flooded with. It’s usually about what makes you look thinner and that smaller is better for a feminine body. She disasgrees with this premise.

Also as a stylist, she knows everyone isn’t going to like every style. But instead of hating it, simply say, “That isn’t my style esthetic.” That’s a positive way to go,although I might have a stronger opinion but it’s okay to disagree.

For example there are parts of my body that I would prefer not to enhance which is why I make certain fashion choices. To Susan, this positioning of what I said about style and my body was more PC and acceptable. Got it!

Learn more about body confidence in this episode

Body PositiveShe did say that body neutrality is so important vs. hating your body. Susan feels no one can constantly stay in body positive energy all the time, but at least you fluctuate between loving it and being neutral. That makes a lot of sense.

This intuitive stylist insists that there’s no reason to feel bad about changes in your body because that is just how things go. This is part of learning to love yourself as you are today. That’s certainly healthy.

She says get rid of those size 4 jeans and stop constantly microdosing on what no longer fits you. Those are low vibes of longing for what used to be. Those “goal jeans” are a constant reminder of what you don’t like about yourself! So true!

I never thought about how this could negativitey impact your mindset or vibration, but I can really see that now. Who needs to be reminded that your’re not OK just as you are?

As a stylist, Susan wants you to feel good in your body and your clothes and stop judging yourself about the size you wear. She thinks no one is going to think less of you for being a size 14 if you used to be a 10.

How Her Clients TransformI asked Susan for a client example about how they shifted or transformed as a result of workng with her. She said she works with her clients for months. They start out with certain beliefs about who they are and what they can wear. She challenges them about these ideas to break out of these confines.

Susan slowly expands her clients’ comfort zone for colors and styles. As they try new things and have new experiences, they lose concern about judgement and build confidence in themselves. How nice!

Her clients learn to make themselves a priority and be their true selves. Susan sees this as letting go of stuck energy in the energetic body as they stretch to try new things. Cool, right?

Then Susan mentioned a client she’s worked with for three years. When they started together she only wore oversized,clothing that was flowy with soft fabrics and always in neutral in color.

However, the client expressed that she wanted to embrace the person she was uncomfortable or afraid of being. She hadn’t been able to connect her personality with her clothes.

In the past, the client gravitated to drapy, soft fabrics in muted colors because she was toning down her personality. This was a reflection of her relationship with her soon to be ex-husband, where she held her self back by turning down the volume on who she was.

It’s Time to Show OffNow, after divorce, the client was ready to be her true self. Susan encouraged her to think about showing off her body rather than covering it up and to try bolder colors. The client was ready to embrace this new sense of style and her new self. The change was incredible!

Susan loves to help faciliate that kind of transformation and growth for her clients as they come into their own. Giving them permission to be who they want to be and go for it. See how fashion can impact someone’s entire outlook on life?

The Impact of ColorPersonally, I consciously choose the colors I wear based on my mood and emotional state. Sometimes I need the soft love of pink or the peace of sky blue. Other days I need the power of red.

Susan says a lack of color in the wardrobe could be an indication about a troubled chakra. For example, if there’s no yellow in the closet, is the person having a problem with the solar plexus, confidence, or showing up for themselves? That’s so interesting!

Celebrate Your BodyHer last piece of advice is, the next time you’re shopping, instead of thinking about what parts of your body you want to hide, think about what part you want to celebrate.

This will help you be more present day to day. Ask yourself, “What part of my body is my favorite today?” Wow, what a positive question!

BIO – Susan PadronSusan Padron is an intuitive personal stylist, an award winning author, podcast host, and has been featured in InStyle and many publications accessible all over the world. She works with her clients to find a personal style that is a true reflection of who they are as a unique individual, while simultaneously helping them to navigate through their limiting beliefs.

Rather than focusing on fashion trends and body types, Susan curates a style for her clients that is accessible, versatile, all while dressing their soul. She is a tattooed, queer mom, who is always ready to give you the gentle nudge or emotional hug, whichever you need, so that you can give yourself the permission to be you.

In this podcast snack, I share how my friend Beth was worried about a meeting she had to attend today. Sometimes things didn’t go so smoothly with this person and she was stressing about the upcoming meeting.

In this short episode, you’ll learn about my suggestions to call in her spirit helpers and ancestors, and well as calling in the unicorns who pave the way with harmony and fill the space with that energy as well.

You’ll find out how you can do this yourself and that it can help with business meetings, friends, or even family gatherings that might normally make you nervous.

Call in your helpers who are more than happy to oblige but need your request first. This is especially true of your angels.

In a previous podcast, I interviewed David Winter who had extensive experience working with unicorns and I mention him in this podcast snack. If you want to hear about his view on unicorn magic listen here.

This is just a quick episode sharing how I manifested three gifts from the Universe! It was so much fun and completely unexpected.

That’s why I want to share how it all happened with you. This way, you can try it for yourself and get your own gifts- yay!

I found this prayer or blessing on instagram and although I don’t know who the author is, I’ll just admit it sure wasn’t me. Give this a try for yourself at the start of any day.

The key is to set aside any expectations and trust the Universe to deliver. Don’t ask for anything specific. That’s why trust is key. Hey – the Universe knows you and what you want.

Have fun with this and please let me know how it works for you in the comments below. Thanks!

Are you curious about how many spiritual classes, trainings, and certifications you need to take? Here’s what you need to know…

The Spiritual Advice I QuestionI was just listening to a podcast where the host was doing a live reading for a client. We’ll call the client Sue and the host Reilly.

Sue’s question for the reading was what to do about the spiritual gifts that were coming to her since she’s did Reiki 1 training.

Reilly asked a few questions to clarify which is all good. Then she told Sue that she’d been a healer in many lifetimes and she didn’t really need to take a lot of classes. The host/reader explained she hadn’t taken many classes herself. She just knew stuff.

Okay that’s cool and I get that. It’s like when people ask me if I’m certified to read the Akashic Records and I respond that I was doing this a decade before Linda Howe’s first book was even published. There were no certifications back then.

Reilly went on to say that taking a bunch of classes can actually mess you up because it can get in the way of you remembering and learning your own stuff. Hmm, really? I’m not so sure about that.

Here’s what I can tell you from what I learned years ago. Taking spiritual classes, trainings, and certifications is an awesome thing to do for LOTS of reasons. Here are 15 that I came up with.

15 Wonderful Reasons to Take Spiritual Classes1. Meet like-minded people and share the experience. 2. Make new friends – I made two good friends in classes 30 years ago! 3. Discover other things from new people you wouldn’t find out about on your own. 4. Learn a method that lots of people have learned – so you know it works. You’ll know the language and techniques everyone uses. 5. Meet people to practice with so your learning becomes exponential! 6. Taking classes actually can wake up your memories of doing similar things in past lives. It’s like an activation of sorts. I took an Akashic Records course during COVID and discovered I’ve been working in the records for three decades!I took a beginner course with a big name teacher. But it wasn’t until I worked with two friends and made up my own prayer to open the records that I had a major initiation. It was complete with sparks of light circling my head and long lasting full body chills that went on for several minutes. Whoa! 7. The structured environment of a class helps you know the steps to follow in the proper order, building on upon the next. 8. Learning in a group setting enhances the experience because other people ask questions you might not think of or share cool stuff too. 9. Groups amplify the energy, learning, community, and fun. 10. Learn in an organized manner – reference material so you don’t have to remember it all or rely on your budding intuition which you may not even be totally sure of yet. 11. Learn what you don’t like – discernment is important. I took a Celtic Shaman program that I didn’t like, but the instructor’s materials were life changing! 12. Combine what you learn with what you already know and integrate. 13. Get new ideas about how to use the stuff you learn from the other people. 14. Meet practitioners you can collaborate with, cross-promote, offer workshops together, and more. 15. Make what you learn your own thing, but first learn how to do it the original way – that’s a biggie. You can always change and improve things, but it really helps to know how things work before you start changing them. Often there’s a method in a particular order for a reason.

I’m sure there are plenty more reasons why taking classes is a great idea at the start of your journey.

Still Taking Spiritual Classes! I’m still taking classes! Last year I learned Soul Intelligence which is Bioenergetic Clearing that I love and adore. It just works in such amazing ways for my clients. Mediumship was another class I took this year.

I don’t know everything, so I’m still willing to learn.

Taking classes happened in waves. First, I took a bunch of psychic development classes because that was what I most wanted to learn. Next, I took that year-long past life class that was awesome and opened me up intuitively. Then I started taking other energy healing classes.

How many spiritual classes do you need to take or how many certifications do you need to get? That’s a verydifferent question.

What’s Your Motivation?If you’re taking classes because you feel a bunch of certifications will help you feel “good enough” about yourself, that’s another story. In that case, I would love for you to take a class on building your self-esteem instead.

When you feel good about yourself, everything changes and no amount of spiritual classes, trainings about healing or mediumship will help with that. You can be highly proficient and still feel you aren’t good enough. That is a mindset or belief that needs to be addressed.

If this sounds like you, please find a way to build yourself up, so you do feel good enough. In fact, good enough isn’t the goal. My hope for you is that you feel fabulous.

Find Reasons to Feel Fabulous!Can you imagine what life would be like if you felt fabulous about yourself every day? First of all, you’d be a magnet for good things coming into your life. Your vibration would be higher, which is why you’d be so magnetic, attracting what you want more easily.

This is what I’m working on. While I know I’m good enough, I’ve put a lot of years into getting there. Still, I want a bit more than that. I want to feel fabulous as often as possible. Just thinking about that makes me feel fabulous!

If you’re taking class after class and certification after certification, hoping to feel good enough, my wish for you is to instead focus on yourself, your confidence, and self-esteem. Build yourself up because doing this helps all the other pieces fall into place.

Now in case this doesn’t work for you, no problem. Please find something that does work for you. That’s all I want is for you – to be happy, feel good about yourself, and even feel fabulous.

Education is ExpansiveEducation is a wonderful thing. It expands your mind and gives you more ways to work with people and serve. Plus, you can make new friends! Can’t go wrong with any of that.

The only think to watch out for is when you take classes because you’re under the impression that you are not good enough without them. Somehow you don’t feel worthy or you think if you just took one more program, that would give you the thing you need to feel good about yourself.

Otherwise, I’d say take what you want! Some classes will be outstanding, others won’t be as good. Regardless, there are people to meet, experiences to have, growth to discover, and fun to enjoy. Go for it!

If you are tired of being Negative Nelly and long to turn your life around to be more productive and happier, discover the power of hypnosis! Worrying and feeling like nothing is going your way can easily get you down, but with the help pf positive self talk you shift your mindset and outlook!

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I have a fascinating conversation with Matan Cohen-Citron. We talked about how people are hypnotized every day when they watch TV or do other daily activities.

The News Is HypnoticIn particular, the news can be very hypnotic and this is a good reason to think carefully about what you watch and the messages being conveyed. How do those messages impact your psyche and subconscious mind?

The news is crafted to be sensationa,l so you pay attention and feel like you might miss something important. This keeps you watching or listening, enabling advertisers to reach you.

Today, it’s all about the advertisers, where as in the days of Walter Cronkite, the news was not a profit center, but seen as a public service. There was no advertising pressure back then on news programs. The focus was on journalism and sharing information.

Created to Be EdgyThinking about the usual messaging from any news program today, most stories are edgy and sensationalized. Do they make you feel…

  • Anxious about bad things happening on the planet?
  • Worried about the future of our planet?
  • Fearful that no good will come your way, given the situation?
  • Angry about injustice and the unfairness of the world?
  • Unmotivated and feel ready to just give up?

Even if you just have the TV on with low volume in the background that too can influence your mind. Yikes! Your subconscious mind is like a sponge.

The same is true for the radio or whatever you listen to. That’s why these things can worsen your outlook if you sometimes feel like a Negative Nelly.

Positive Self Talk Shifts Your PerceptionWhat can you do instead that will be move you into a more positive zone? Learn how to talk to yourself! When you change up your normal internal chatter into something encouraging and positive, you’d be amazed at the changes that can happen.

In fact, with a little time, you just might let go of being Negative Nelly and shift to Positive Patty! Imagine what your life would be like if you could shift your outlook to feel more optimistic?

Positive self talk, even for just three minutes a day can create a huge shift in your life. When you encourage yourself and spend time thinking that everything is working out for you, this can become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Thoughts for Manifesting MoneyFor example, if you want to manifest money, rather than worrying about it or complaining that you don’t have any, try saying things like:

  • Every day I learn more about manifesting money
  • I am good at manifesting things
  • Money comes to me easily
  • I am going with the flow to manifest everything I need
  • Money finds me

Matan also encourages people to remind themselves of the positive things you accomplish each day before going to sleep. He says this sets your mind up to be more receptive during sleep. You might get messages from spirit or your own subconsious mind, relaying important guidance for your life.

We covered a lot of interesting territory in this fun conversation and talked about how hypnosis is a powerful tool for your spiritual growth and development.

To get the full picture of how to leave Negative Nelly behind and feel more positive and empowered, listen to the podcast and enjoy!

This week I’m talking about essential oils for emotional healing and more, how they are made, some of my favorites and what they do for you.

[Don’t forget about the Bioenergectic Clearing special that ends at the end of April – just $50 for 50 minutes, normally $188. Click here to get in on the special before it’s gone!]

This is a new series for the podcast called “Ronnie’s Favorites” which obviously is about some of my favorite metaphysical tools. I’ll be sharing a variety of topics like favorite essential oils, energy tips, favorite crystals, favorite books and a few other things.

So, let’s talk about essential oils. These plant-based products work to shift your energy, mood, and emotions. They also have medicinal properties, but that’s not an area I’m knowledgeable about – you’d need an aromatherapist or herbologist for those details.

Who couldn’t use a little help from the plant world to get going in the right direction?

Essential oils are made from plant extracts to create an oil to support health and well-being. Many also provide an emotional component, working to shift you energetically and lift your mood.

How Are Essential Oils Made?There are there basic ways the scent, flavor and properties are extracted
1) steam, 2) water, and 3) cold pressing. A true essential oil is never created through a chemical process. And the best ones use organically grown plants. Some manufacturers own the farms, others source globally. Either way works.

Once the properties have been extracted, they are mixed with a carrier oil like fractionated coconut oil and bottled. And there you have it – essential oils are born. Many manufacturers like DoTerra, Living Young and Eden’s Garden make a quality product.

How to Use Essential Oils for Emotional HealingThere are several ways you can work with the oils, but for the most part it’s for aromatherapy.

Use a diffuser – many brands will tell you how many drops to use in a diffuser or oil blends that are helpful.

Anoint the body – place oils on your body in a ceremonial way. Dot your wrists and thymus, elbow creases, etc.

Inhale the aroma – Place a drop or two on your palms, cup to your nose and breathe in.

DoTerra makes some edible products but others say you should never ingest them. I don’t really know, so be safe whatever you decide.

How Do Essential Oils Work?Now I’m going to get scientific, so hang in there. When you inhale the scent of an essential oil for emotional healing or any reason, this stimulates the limbic system of your brain which is related to your emotions and behaviors, your sense of smell and long-term memory.

Since the limbic system plays a role in forming memories, this explains why certain smells can cause memories or the related emotions to pop into your mind. It calls up the memory and the emotion linked to it through your sense of smell.

In addition, the lymbic systems contributes to controlling unconscious body functions like breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure. This explains claims of how oils have a physical effect on the body.

But for those of you who accept the mystical side of life, essential oils also work on a vibrational level which affects everything, since everything is energy including the body, emotions, and thoughts.

My Go-To Essential Oil BookI have a go-to handbook for essential oils related to the emotions. It’s a spiral bound book called Essential Emotions: Your Guide to Process, Release and Love Free.

No author is given credit just the website essentialemotions.com. This is a companion to DoTerra oils because it does list some of their premade blends. But the oil properties are not related to a particular brand – the descriptions work for any brand.

My Favorite Essential OilsThis is in no way a comprehensive list of the oils available. There are so many essential oils – there’s got to be a few you’ll love and benefit from. But this is a list of my personal favorites and the emotional help they provide.

In other words, these essential oils for emotional healing address situations and issues thatI have found improved with their use. I felt better after using them. These are in alphabetical order if you want to know why I listed them this way.

Cypress – Flow with life, trust, flexible. Sometimes I feel stuck and that no matter how I try, I can’t move forward. Take out my Cypress oil! It has a nice mild evergreen pine-like scent. When I’m in the flow, I’m working for my highest good and on the path of my soul.

Frankincense – Protected, wisdom, spiritually open. This is a great oil if you want to open to higher levels of consciousness in your meditation. It’s also good for anointing yourself in ceremonies or rituals you might participate in. Very powerful and a great oil in your oil tool box.

Geranium – Emotional healing, forgiveness, loving, and tolerance. Working for so many years with women seeking love, I’ve suggested the use of geranium often. If you’ve been emotionally wounded, this is a lovely essential oil for emotional healing that works on the heart.

Spicy Ginger!Ginger – Empowerment, capable, purposeful. If you’re on a mission and need to feel confident and empowered, get out the ginger! First of all it’s a wonderful spicy scent. It will help you get on the path of productivity and getting things done!

Grapefruit – Learn to love your body, healthy relationship with food. To me, this oil has the most heavenly scent. It’s just scrumptious. And the idea that it will help me love and accept my body is a great benefit, especially if I’m going somewhere and not feeling the best about myself.

Green Mandarin – Pure potential. When I really want to connect during a meditation or work at the highest level I’m capable of on a particular project, I use green mandarin. Another citrus blend, the aroma is divine and I feel excited knowing the scent is helping me achieve my highest potential.

Tune into SpiritGuaiacwood – Used for centuries by the Incas, the indigenous people of the Andes, for ceremonies and rituals, this oil is relaxing and calming. But it’s also excellent for inducing a meditative state.

Combine it with this shaman drumming in the video below and you’ve got the tools to get deep into the other world. I’ve had great results with this oil for connecting to the other side.

Lemon – Focus, get mental clarity, feel alert and joy. Lemon is so refreshing and yummy. I’m a citrus girl and love all the citrus aromas as you’re about to hear. Lemon is also a scent many people relate to cleaning and the oil is good for that I’ve been told.

Lemongrass – Spiritual clarity, cleansing, simplicity, and non-attachment. When you want to clear your energy, lemongrass is a powerful ally. Mixing lemongrass with lime is a wonderful blend which I’ll explain in a moment

Lime – Zest for life. Yes, I love lime. When I’m feeling a little down, I grab my lime oil and inhale deeply – yes! Let’s remember the zest for life, right? Then when you combine lemongrass with lime – you’ve got a powerful combination for clearing and replenishing your energy with zest for life. Beautiful.

Peppermint – Wake up, focus, and feel optimistic. In Connecticut where I live, we have a lot more cloudy days then we used to. And when the cloudy days come one after another, I sometimes need a bit of a pick me up. That’s where peppermint is amazing. It will perk you up like a cup of coffee without the caffeine. So invigorating!

Love & HealingRose – Love, compassion, healing, and empathy. When you’re working on love, whether that’s self love, romantic love, or love for humanity, rose is the best essential oil for emotional healing. This one is more expensive side, so even a roller bottle which is a smaller quantity could do.

Rosemary – Mental clarity and the ability to adjust. This is another spicy scent. When I’m not feeling clear about a situation, rosemary is my go to oil. Get that clarity you need to understand what is happening and the steps you need to take next.

Wild Orange – Abundance, humor, playful, creative, joyful, spontaneous. The last citrus oil, wild orange is such a mood enhancer. Open a bottle and breathe in that creativity and joy.

This always works for me and I’m sure you’re going to love it too. Keep it on your desk where you work so you can remember to enjoy life even when hard at work or lift your mood no matter what.

2 Essential Oil ExpertsI have two experts that I have followed about essential oils for emotional healing and they are very different.

Allison StillmanShe calls herself the Aromatic Alchemist. I interviewed a while ago and I just loved her. Listen here to that episode.

She talks about the sacred art of anointing the body and using oils for She explained the process to me which was so helpful. For example, she talks about putting a drop or two of lavendar on the crown of your head to declare you are sacred and divine. It’s a way to make a statement to the Universe and carry that with you throughout the day.

Allison has done a lot of research about the history of anointing and wrote a wonderful book about it as well called the Sacred Art of Anointing. She also talks about aromatherapy, raising your frequency with essential oils and even why the church burns resin as people enter the building. Visit Allison’s website here

Desiree de LunaeMy other favorite expert to follow is Desiree de Lunae who is an acupuncturist who is an expert on essential oils and combines them with Chinese medicine. Desiree specializes in emotional well-being and has come up with some wonderful protocols She creates a series of essential oils for emotional healing that you apply to different parts of the body.

I attended one of her programs called I Am Fabulous in person which was pretty amazing. She had command of the subject matter and the room. She’s quite a personality and is brimming over with enthusiasm about what she tons.

Desiree’s youtube channel is loaded with videos on every topic you could imagine having to do with essential oils.

In the podcast I share her protocols for her I Am Fabulous program and also a blend that she calls Magic!

Medicine Woman, Mother, and Mentor, Kerri Humingbird talks with me about what the so called “New Earth” will be like in real terms I actually understood!

Connect with Mother EarthKerri loves to help people and clients connect with Mother Earth and many do this by hiking in nature. You might get quiet being with the trees, rocks, and birds. But there’s so much more!

Indigenous people know that Mother Earth is awake, conscious, and a being of light and we exist in her auric field. We are created from her material of fire, water, earth, and air and all of life is connected in this way.

When that becomes an embodied realization, you can feel it in your body and your body is Mother Earth. She is present inside of you. Then you learn to listen deeply – this is what is studied in any mystery school or by indigenous people. The journey goes inward.

When you connect with Mother Earth in this way, you bring your soul and consicousness into the body and operate from a higher consciousness which Kerri calls the Love Mind and the heart. You’ll make very different types of decisions from being connected this way then if you were coming from fear.

Decisions for the Good of AllMother Earth helps us make wiser decisions for life on the planet. You might think, “How is this choice creating health, wealth, and prosperity for seven generations forward, not only for my descendents but for all life on the planet?”

You stop thinking about just you or your family and consider the relevance of all species. For example, if there are no bees, that will impact ALL life on the planet.

I asked Kerri why seven generations back but she wasn’t sure of the origin of that number. She did relay a story from her own life – how she’s related to a medicine man seven generations back who walked the Trail of Tears with the Cherokee nation.

Having connected with this ancestor has helped her learn about healing and it’s been very powerful. I brought up Jane Robert’s book The Education of Oversoul 7 which talks about how there is no time and the soul fragments to live all seven lives at the same time.

This is like what Kerri has gone through connecting to her own soul as her ancestor. She was that medicine man in a past life and is related to him as well! Amazing, right?

Higher & Lower L evel MindsThe Pachamama (from the Karo people in the Andes mountains) is the mother of time and space. When you are embodied in the Pachamama, then you’re living at the intersection of time and space. A little bit mind blowing.

The medicine person learns to transcend time through the hummingbird consciousness and eagle consciousness – both are aspects of the higher functioning brain.

Most of humanity today use the lymbic and reptillian brains which are lower level functioning and why we have so much human drama. At this level, there is no sense of soul or spirit. Instead it’s “Us vs. Them” for the most part. This demonstrates a lack of awareness.

The Great AwakeningBut now, with the great awakening, people have this higher level brain to open up our consciousness to access beyond the veil. This requires an understanding that we are more than a body with one life on earth.

We need to reconcile our past lives and come to peace with it all. This is the opportunity to clean up the karma and the mess humans have made.

The point is to transcend the drama. With eagle consciousness, you get the higher perspective with soul eyes, bringing higher frequencies with it like compassion and patience. This helps you make different choices and allows things to shift!

Many people here today, have been getting ready for this time through several lifetimes to be hand-holders and way-showers. They have come from around the Universe to the New Earth.

This group studied a variety of modalities to guide people now who are waking up and opening to spirit.

Who Will Ascend?We are shifting into the next potential, having prepared to be in service this way for many lifetimes. OK, so what does this have to do with ascension?

Kerri explained not everyone will want to come along and ascend, or have the same reality as those who are awakened. They may like suffering for some reason and come from a place of fear. However, those with the awakened mind can accept people from a place of love vs. fear.

More about ascension and 5D

When you are connected to the earth and are operating from a higher consciousness, you allow yourself to be guided towards love.

So, awakened people are already experiencing a different reality. There has been a strengthening of duality. You can just tell when it’s not worth having a conversation with someone who is closed off and chosen to stay at the lower vibration. It’s clear now and eawsy to see.

This is a big part of what it means to live in a different reality. Not that we are actually separated or on different planets, or that the earth will split in two. (Yes, I’ve heard people say this kind of stuff!).

Instead, it’s about looking at life through a lens of higher consciousness.

I’m Not Buying ItPersonally, I have a hard time with this idea that we’ll be off to some other world. Kerri explained that people will self-select to be with similar types in similar environments. So, if you come from love, you will work to love and accept people.

People who have a fear perspective will ultimately be impacted by the love-minded folks whether or not they want that or not. Many of them will end up coming along and moving over to this frequency, especially as the fear model disappates.

The Changes She’s SeenNext, I asked Kerri what changes she’s noticed about her clients recently. Kerri said when people move into love consciousness, you are more gracious and compassionate.

You start to have access to magical teachings, wisdom, rituals, ceremonies and your own power. And you can use all of it for the benefit of humanity and the world.

Rather than confront someone on their short comings, you’ll work on yourself to clear the energy, clear the space, bring love and forgiveness to everything. This is how you’ll resolve things. The other person won’t know what happened or how the change took place, but that’s OK.

Kerri’s biggest miracles were with her family. When Kerri started on the shaman journey, her family thought she was crazy and didn’t understand what she was doing. Her dad had a condition that was life threatening, the same thing his own mother had died from.

Family HealingSo, Kerri asked his permission (always important!) to look into this and she cleared this. As a result, her dad’s condition stayed as is and never progressed for the rest of her life.

She also healed the relationship with her mother which she explains in one of her books. They had been at odds after her father passed, and they couldn’t even have a simple conversation.

Kerri’s solution was working her medicine, doing ceremonies, plant medicine, and writing a book about healing the mother wound. This went on for a two year period, learning to process, forgive, and get to a place of love. Now things are wonderful between them.

This is a beautiful example of how living in a reality from a place of love and higher consciousness can exist on the planet at the same time as the hate and fear. And how love will influence those people stuck.

Love is sort of pervasive and contagious – that’s what it sounds like to me anyway. LOL.

Learn about Transformational Shamanism with Kelle Sparta

The Love CurriculumKerri refers to this process as the Love Cirriculum! What an interesting time to be alive on the planet.

To make this process easier, this medicine woman’s advice is to find a community of like-minded people and take responsibility for yourself. Amen to that! Forget the lone-wolf perspective, it’s time to be relational.

If you want to be in community, consider the Intuitive Mastermind, where we support each other by amplifying our energy and using our intuition for the good of all the members.

Last but not least, Kerri asks that we thank Mother Earth for all her efforts and send her grace and love. Done!

Ready to use your intuitive guidance on a regular basis, but aren’t sure how to advance your skills? This episode goes deep into eight ways to rely on your inner knowing and trust the information.

Tip #1 – Take the Pressure OffIf you try to work on the biggest issues of your life with you new intuitive skills, that’s too much pressure to be right! This kind of pressure clouds your connection to your inner wisdom and shuts down the information gateways.

If you’re facing a difficult situtation, shift to your tarot cards, the I Ching, or runes.

Then practice your intuition on simple, low risk subjects, so you can build up your skill and have a track record so you start to trust it.

Tip #2 – Know Your ClairsThere are four main clairs and while there are a few others, they are less common. Clairvoyant is the ability to have visions or see things in your mind’s eye. Clairaudient is when you hear words, sentences, or even paragraphs.

Clairsentient is the ability to feel things. If this is your clair, you might get goosebumps or chills or just have a feeling about something and that’s how you get your intuitive answers.

And the last of the main four is claircognizant which is about having a senese of knowing. You might get blocks of information all at once, or you just somehow know what you need to do next.

Most people have one main clair to start with, but often the others will develop as you continue to practice and build your skills.

The Magic of Intuition in a Pinch

Tip 3# – Trust ExercisesBuild up ability to receive intuitive guidance by trying small tasks on a regular basis. For example, think about the root you want to take before you drive, then check your GPS system to see how you did. Did you pick the best root to get where you want to go?

When you do this often, you will get very good at it and then trick extends to other intuitive work because now you’ve built up some trust, based on your track record. You will have experienced the accuracy of your intuitive gift working with low risk questions.

For more simple ideas to practice with, get my free book Inklings: A Quick Guide to Your Intuitive Gifts

Tip #4 – Keep a RecordThe best way to build even more trust in your intuition is to write your experiences down in a journal. You don’t have to go on and on, but when you write down your questions and then the inner guidance you received, now you have evidence!

Looking back on your results and track records is an incredible resource and it’s the only evidence you have that your intuition was on target! Make it a habit to write your sessions down, even just the quickest notes or voice record the information.

Now you have something to refer back to which makes a huge difference. Watching your improvement and reviewing the evidence of your success will help you feel much more confident.

Tip #5 – Be ConsistentIf you are serious about learning to rely on your intuitive guidance, consistency matters. Working on your skill consistently will help you get more confortable with the practice, so it becomes second nature.

What do I men by consistency? That you’ll practice twice a week, or every weekend, or on whatever shcedule works for you. You get to decide, but then you want to follow that pattern regularly to get really good.

Tip #6 – Trust Your GutThe vegus nerve is a super highway from y our gut to yoru brain which has between 100-500 million neurons. That’s why scientifically, your gut is refered to as your second brain! It really is!

Your gut is all about instinct and that gut reaction to something. If you ever feel at risk or unsafe, that’s the most important time to trust your gut!

Back in caveman days, humans relied on intuition to stay safe, hunt, and know if someone was a threat to family or community. Intuitive ability has been coded into your very DNA which is why everyone has access to inner wisdom.

But, not everyone practices to get excell at it, uses it regularly, or even acknowledges that it exists. That is up to you, so if you want to rely on your sixth sense, then learn about the skill and practice it.

Tip #7 – Relax and Be PlayfulThis goes back to tip #1 which was to take the pressure off. When you relax about your intuitive guidance and just have fun with it, it will be much easier. Playfulness opens the pathways and expands your energy field, making it easier to connect with the higher realms.

Tip #8 – Work with OthersThe way I honed my intuition was in a group. Working with others amplifies the energy field making it easier to connect to higher levels. That’s why I urge you to work with a friend or join my Intuitive Mastermind which starts Wednesday, April 17th at 11am ET.

Nothing will accelerate your progress faster than group work and this is what really got me into a good place where I started to really trust the intuitive guidance I received.

Being in a group offers confirmation as well with the answer you get because often people get very similar messages. It’s fantastic. There are still eight spots (out of 10) open for the Mastermind, so if you want to check it out, don’t wait!

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m sharing a recorded Past life Reading and Intuitive Coaching Session with Lori.

Past Life HistoryThis was an amazing session that delved into so much history. The session was sort of a wild ride with really interesting twists and turns. Lori wanted to better undestand why she struggles and things seem so hard for her. We also investigated her difficulties with romance and fear of open waterlike the ocean.

Looking into her past, we discovered she was royalty, although not in line for the throne. Her father’s conniving trespasses left her in bad straits. Unfortunately, she has hung on to those feelings today, even though she was not personally at fault for what transpired. However, she did pay a heavy price that she’s been holding onto for many life times.

Find Out the 7 Ways Past Lives Affect Your Love Life Now

Since this is not necessary for her soul development, it was time to release these feelings. Today, this includes a feeling of not being good enough that comes from this situation which we discuss in depth during her past life reading.

Life at the Time of CaesarAs to her fear about open water, like the ocean or the Mediterranean, we found three lives going back to the time of Caesar. So fascinating!

Going deeper into her previous incarnations, we also uncovered a lifetime where she was in command of the elements. It was in that lifetime when she lost her respect for the water element which turns out to be the root cause of her fear today.

The Healing TempleNext I took her to the healing temple which I discovered through meditation at the library with the Akashic Records. Lori cleared several issues, connected with her angels, and took it all in stride. She felt much lighter after being in the temple.

The last issue we addressed is the idea that she thrives on anxiety and moments that really test her. Lori says sometimes she thinks she’s not happy unless she’s miserable. She also mentioned that often her life feels like a marathon that doesn’t have a finish line.

In the end, Lori wanted help to shift this perspective and feel more at peace. Together we unraveled where this idea came from and how she can go about being more kind to herself. Spending more time on self care was one important solution.

Past Life RegressionHaving worked with past lives for over 30 years, I can say that it’s easier than you think to connect with this soul level information. Past Life regression and hypnosis are not at all required to get the information you seek.

For Lori, what was great about this reading and Intuitive Coaching session was how everything unfolded so beautifully. Lori is a very open person which made her a fabulous client. As a result, we covered a tremendous amount of ground in a relatively short time and cleared up a number of things that had been bothering her.

You’ll hear how she shifted by the end of the Past Life Reading and Intuitive Coaching session and hopefully you’ll enjoy the journey as much as we did.

Thanks for listening!

Have you heard of or tried cognitive reframing? It’s a powerful tool that can positively shift your mindset about something permanently to change the direction of your life!

The Power of MentoringIn this episode I interview my friend Jane who has been a mentor in the school system, helping young kids, 4th grade up. Jane does this kind of volunteer work because she feels its a two way street. While she’s helping children with homework, conversation, and life skills, she enjoys the growing relationship that can last for several years.

Jane says she can see a difference quickly in the children she mentors. For example, she is currently working with Emily. The girl was shy and isolated, making her world very small. She didn’t have many friends and was also struggling with her studies.

At her second meeting, Emily showed her appreciation by giving Jane a gift! Jane had made a difference in this child’s life already by being her friend and showing interest in her. They connected quickly at the heart level.

When the school year ended, Emily had to stay back, but she also switched schools which made a difference. This year things seemed to be going better, but then she got a text from Emily’s mother. Apparently, she’s flunking math. The mom asked if Jane could please talk to her about this.

Reframing Can Be MotivatingNow Jane had to come up with a strategy. She didn’t want to scold or threaten her because that would just go in one ear and out the other. This is what Jane did and why I am telling you this incredible story. It’s all about reframing.

Cognitive reframing is a method that helps you look at a situation in your life completely differently, to change your experience of it. The first step was to ask Emily to make a list of each class and then comment about how she’s doing in it.

Most of her comments were positive, until she got to math, the problem subject. About math, Emily wrote that she doesn’t like the teacher who is mean and boring. All Emily does is yawn and wish the class was over and she said nobody likes the teacher.

Jane told Emily how her mom had asked her to talk this through because she was failing. She also said if she were the teacher, she might flunk her too. Then Jane changed gears and said, “I can’t tell you the answers for the test, but I can tell you, if you listen to me, how to make sure you don’t flunk this class.”

Have you heard about the 7-Minute Shift?

Play the GameJane had Emily’s attention now and continued by saying that what she was about to reveal was an adult concept. Jane said, “See when you grow up, you’re going to have bosses and jobs that you don’t like. In fact, chances are you’re going to have more teachers you don’t like and you have to learn to deal with that.”

Continuing, Jane said, “There’s a code we use and it’s called ‘Playing the Game’.” Emily looked at Jane as she continued. “This is how it works. You’ve got to show that you are interested whether you are or not. You’ve got to raise your hand, ask questions, ask for help, move your seat up front, and make eye contact.”

“It’s a game where you make a little effort. You don’t have to really like it, but that’s what you do.” Emily responded, “I think I can do that.”

Jane was suggesting that Emily pretend she’s interested even if she’s not. And the upside is she might find she likes the class more once she shows interest. But Emily has to start somewhere. Right now, Emily has to make an effort.

Let’s take a step back and think about how the teacher can tell Emily is bored and maybe doesn’t like her. This influence’s the teacher’s opinion of her. But when she sits up front and gets more engaged, the teacher’s opinion will likely change too.

Lesson of a LifetimeA week goes by and Jane picks Emily up at the regular time and asks how school is. Emily says, “Good.” Then Jane asked, “And how is it with the math teacher?” Emily responded with excitement, “Today she smiled at me.”

Next Jane asked, “What do you think that’s about?” Emily responded that she moved her seat up front and made eye contact with her. This is how Emily got the lesson of a life time. She is starting to see how her behavior is changing the teacher’s behavior with her.

Listen to an episode about mindset shift

A Game ChangerPersonally, this is the part of the story that completely grabbed me. This is masterful reframing! Emily had a belief about the teacher and math class. She doesn’t like it. Yet, Jane enticed her to change her outlook!

Turning this into a game, an adult game at that, was intriguing and gave her a different reason to try it. It was like letting her in on a secret only adults are supposed to know! This was a game she was willing to play and potentially win.

Emily took action and then was rewarded with her teacher smiling at her!

The truth is, it’s all the same. For a child or an adult, you have to show interest, make an effort, and try. Reframing whatever is holding you back is the KEY to moving forward.

This idea helped change the dynamic of the situation and put the power in Emily’s hands to get a different outcome. Amazing! And as a result, Emily was excited!

This is a huge lesson, moving Emily from failure to playing a game and winning! The result is a life changer for this child, I have no doubt. A massive potential transformation is hanging in the balance.

Anyone can benefit from this type of masterful reframing!

Think about it. What’s dragging you down? What’s draining your energy? Sometimes you can’t change things but sometimes you can shift perspective to make a big difference!

Try a shift in attitude to think about what is the silver lining? Ask yourself, “What’s the benefit and where can I win with this situation?” This kind of questioning changes your vibration and the energy, sending out ripples in the right direction. Show the Universe you are willing to try!

There’s so much more to this story, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to get every last juicy drop.

This week’s episode features Feng Shui Expert and Intuitive Coach, Kim Julen. She talks about Feng Shui for business and life and how to take charge and feel supported.

Kim shares her extensive knowledge about this ancient Chinese art and science that dates back thousands of years. The purpose is to create an environment that energetically supports you and the things you want to attract into your life.

I have studied Feng Shui too and think of the practice as creating the most fortuitous flow of energy through your home or office. Kim agreed!

Command the SpaceKim’s first example had to do with going out to dinner in a restaurant and how you should choose a seat with your back to the wall and a view of the door. This keeps you prepared to see who is approaching.

Years ago as a dating coach, I wrote an article about this very idea called Dinner Date Feng Shui which explained how to honor the masculine energy of your date.

This kind of command position also applies to your home and office. For example in the bedroom, you want the bed facing the door but not in alignment with the door. Also, Kim explains how you want your husband or partner to sleep closer to the door for protection, symbolically or otherwise.

Feng Shui for BusinessThese suggestions for positioning yourself stem from the need for safety and protection. The same thing is true for how to position your desk in your office. You want a view of the door but not to be in front of it. The point is you don’t want anyone sneaking up on you!

If you have a commercial space, consider the position of your office as it relates to the front door. The command position for the floor plan would be to locate your office in the back left corner. This is the wealth corner. If someone else is in the wealth corner, it can interfere with the energy of your success and profits.

Here’s another episode about feng shui

Feng Shui Tips for the OfficeWith corporate cubicles, often your back is to the doorway which is not the command position. That’s not proper Feng Shui for business. Kim’s cure is to hang a red sweater or scarf over the back of your chair. This protects your energy if you have any conflicts with coworkers. The red color also acts like a stop sign, symbolically signaling people to approach with caution.

Another solution is to place a mirror in front of you that can show you the doorway, so you can see who is coming. This gives your power back since you can now see what is happening.

Feng Shui Bedroom TipsIn the bedroom, you want a solid, once piece head board and foot board. Slatted headboards can produce uncomfortable energy. If you can’t use a headboard, hang something on the wall behind you or paint a square to represent support. Another option is to hang something over the slotted headboard like a quilt, to give it the appearance of being solid.

Kim insists you’ll sleep better for sure and this is good Feng Shui for the bedroom. Spice things up in the bedroom and attract love with Feng Shui.

Bring Energy into the SpaceKim explained that when she does a presentation, she’ll touch all the chairs before people come in puting her energy into the room. I love this idea!

Another method she uses is to “throw” her energy into the space and in the corners, while counting to 10. This helps people relate to her during her speech or performance.

If you can’t get in the room ahead of time, you can draw power with the Wonder Woman pose. Stand with your legs shoulder width apart and hands on hips. Go into the ladies room and try this for yourself before your next meeting! This isn’t Feng Shui for business but it still works.

Daily MagicNext, I asked Kim what daily magic means to her. She said things just magically come together for her after setting an intention.

For example, Kim set an intention to do more speaking this year, and four people including me already asked her to be a guest. All requests came out of the blue!

It’s a bunch of little things that happen that just seem random, but there is no such thing as coincidence. That’s the synchronicity of magic! It can also be messages from your spirit guides, angels, and ancestors.

I also talk about daily magic and did an episode called 30 Juicy Bits of Daily Magic in case you want to know how to bring more magic into your life.

Do you have limiting beliefs that are holding you back from living your best life? These beliefs are like an operating system working in the background to keep you from progressing and maintain the status quo.

In this episode, we’re talking about how to identify your limiting beliefs, address, and transform them. You can overcome your limiting beliefs on your own or with an expert. But one thing is for sure – it will change your life forever.

St. Patrick’s Day is around the Corner.

meditation about the Luck of the Irish.
It’s really fun!

Everyone Has Limiting BeliefsMy guest, Transformation Coach and Shamanic Practitioner, Katie Augustyn spoke with me in detail about how we all have limiting beliefs. The important thing is to realize you can identify and transform them to open new possibilities in your life.

Just because you believe something doesn’t make it true or right. Most limiting beliefs are detrimental and hold you back. Katie and I dig into this topic to help listeners realize that you can identify and banish these thoughts to shift your life for the better.

Often your limiting beliefs are from the subconsicous mind and formed when people are younger. Many times they are adopted from parents or ancestors without even realizing it.

All beliefs are not bad – some are actually very helpful like believing you are capable, beautiful, or smart. Belief in yourself is vital to your self-esteem. Your parents give you plenty of messages about who you are – good and bad.

For example, as a child if you didn’t clean up your room, they might have said you were lazy. That could have sunk in deeply and become a self-fulfilling prophecy that undermines your energy and how you get things done.

How to Identify Limiting Beliefs1. What You Think

One of the best ways to identify your limiting beliefs is to tune into your thoughts. Let’s say you hear about a job and then decide you don’t want to go for it. It gives you a clue about what is going on underneath. What limiting beliefs could be behind that?

  • I’m not good enough to get that job
  • People never choose me
  • I don’t know enough about the work

2. What You Say

Another way is identity limiting beliefs is to listen to what you say to other people. Let’s say a friend suggests going out to a concert, but you respond by saying you can’t afford it. What could be behind that statement?

  • There’s limited abundance available in the world
  • I don’t have enough money for that

You might feel you don’t have enough money, but you could rearrange your expenses, plan for it, or forgo something so you can afford it. There are ways around it when you don’t use the limiting language.

3. How Your Feel

A third way to identify limiting beliefs is to pay attention to your emotions. Let’s say you have a fear of speaking in public and you get a pit in your stomach when this comes up. What thoughts could be behind this feeling?

  • I don’t have anything important to say
  • People don’t want to listen to me
  • People don’t value my perspective

Relationships and love are another big area for limitations. Thoughts like “All the good men are taken” are common, but what is creating that belief? You might think:

  • I’m not worthy of a good man
  • Men don’t pick me
  • I’m invisible to men

You Are Not Limited!The truth is you are not limited at all and you can work around these negative thoughts. Here’s a great example. I was 35 and really wanted to get married, so I went to see an astrologer who said she didn’t see that in the stars for me.

Thinking maybe that wasn’t the right astrologer for me, I went to another who ended up saying the exact same thing. This made me furious! Who are they to tell me such a thing?

Fast forward five years when I decided I was going to figure this out. I dated 30 men in 15 months to find the adorable man I’ve been happily married to for years. This is a perfect example of making a big shift. I SAW the possibility and transformed the situation to attract the love I wanted.

How to Transform Limiting BeliefsFirst and foremost, limiting beliefs are not TRUE. Katie helps her clients transform these limiting beliefs to become empowering beliefs! The first step is to write down the limiting core belief, then turn it into a positive.

If you transform these beliefs, it truly is life changing. So, I’m not worthy of love becomes, I am worthy of love. Have the awareness that you actually have a CHOICE. And then choose differently.

The next step is to connect with your higher self, God, Source, or the Creator, to get out of your head. Imagine that you cancel and delete the limiting belief and then replace it with the empowering one. This is reprogramming your unconscious mind and you reinforce this by saying it, writing it, and practicing it.

I asked Katie how you deal with your nay sayer or inner critic. She says that’s exactly why you connect with a higher source. That level of power is pure love and supportive which enables you to change and transform your beliefs.

Chances are it could take more than once through the process, but you can shift this limitation! The very first one to address may be that you CAN change your limiting beliefs.

You’ll learn a lot more, so be sure to listen to the full podcast this weekend.

Today’s topic is about self kindness because that is one of the most healing things you can do. Self kindness is a relatively new self-care method and is an active form of self-love.

The BackgroundBefore we get there I want to share what happened in my life to get me to this place. This is a story about my business, so hang in there. I’ve got to start with a little history so you can understand how this all fits together.

Back in 2019, I was still a dating coach and my website was kicking butt with amazing traffic. Through my own hard work writing weekly blogs that had really good search engine optimization, I generated wild traffic to my website which was incredibly exciting.

I was getting 137,000 visitors a month which adds up to 1.6 million visitors in a year! I was so thrilled with this accomplishment – it was like magic to me.

Then in November 2019, Google made some algorhythm changes, which they often do. What happened next? My traffic literally plummeted to zero. I was stunned and heart broken. How was this fair?

After all my hard work for more than 15 years, the rules changed and I had nothing. Traffic did pick back up to about 25,000 visitors per month but never came close to recovering.

While this doesn’t seem like a relationship trauma, for me it actually was. I had a strong relationship with my blog and I identified with that wild traffic. So, when it crashed into the dust, it took me months to recover.

Short on Kindness 4 Years LaterFast foward to this morning. I was speaking to my SEO search engine expert and we were talking about my new website, IntuitiveEdge.biz. I’m working to generate more website traffic, which is why I reached out to her.

When we started looking at the data for my traffic, it looked like there were a number of things messing up and causing problems. Weird things that she wasn’t sure how to fix.

This caused me to start to spiraling downward. I remembered how this felt from 2019. I’ve been working hard over the last two years on every podcast and blog post that goes with it. And now, there’s a bunch of technical glitches getting in my way of success? Again?

I started to question everything:

  • Why am I doing this?
  • Why is this happening again?
  • Why is this so very hard?
  • How much do I despise Google?
  • Why do they get to decide everything?
  • Who put them in charge?
  • I’ll never get this going the way I want it
  • Why am I even bothering?

Ever felt this way about something in your life? Yeah, I bet you can relate. We all go there sometimes. It’s pretty common.

What’s happened to you lately and how did you respond? What kind of stuff did you say to yourself? Was it kind or understanding? Not likely!

Negativity is NaturalHow unfortunate that this negative response is totally natural. Yet, this is what people do to themselves. Some are completely relentless with nasty internal chatter all day and night. Others are a bit less berating. But none of it is good for your well being or self-esteem.

The problem got me thinking a bit deeper. Is there a better way to respond to a situationlike this? How could I be kinder to myself? Self-kindness. Hmmm.

I looked that up and of course it’s a thing experts talk about. I found a great article from EverydayHealth.com and I’m going to share a little of what I learned.

Definition of Self KindnessLet’s start with a definition of what self kindness is. Being more conscious about how you speak to yourself internally and shifting to a more understanding internal tone. Treating yourself with compassion and kindness.

According to that article from EverydayHealth.com, compassion is the awareness of suffering, coupled with a desire to allieviate it. This is how Steve Hickman, clinical psychologist and chief operating office of Global Compassion Coalition, explains it.

“Self-compassion is the act of noticing when you’re struggling, recognizing that’s actually part of being human, and being kind to yourself rather than beating yourself up.” Thanks Steve.

Why is this so important? Because being kind to yourself is strongly associated with your psychological well-being. When you operate with self-compassion, that has been linked to feelings of happiness, optimism, connection, and curiosity.

As these good feelings rise, other states of mind such as depression, anxiety, over thinking and fear of failure decrease. Awesome, right?

Next, Kristen Neff, PhD, who is an associate professor in the University of Texas at Austin’s department of educational psychology, created this definition of self-compassion used by most researchers.

She says, “Self-compassion consists of three elements: self-kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness.” When you show yourself compassion, you are experiencing all three of these states of being.

Defining 3 States of Being1. Self-kindness – Being kind to yourself.

2. Common Humanity – Realizing that suffering and feeling inadequate are part of the shared human experience and everyone feels like this at some point.

3. Mindfulness – A nonjudgmental state of mind.

What Does Self Kindness Look Like?Experts suggest you should treat yourself like you would treat a good friend. My recommendation is to imagine comforting a child if you were a parenting expert doing everything right. Then imagine that you are that child who needs the comfort!

Typically, most people are super hard on themselves and visciously critical. Negative thinking patterns impact how you view yourself and the world.

Also important is self-compassion which is the ability to turn compassion inward. It boils down to just giving yourself a break. Be internally supportive in how you to speak to yourself. Encourage yourself to try again, keep at it, move forward, and everything is OK.

The idea is to shift away from the normal bashing your inner critic does. Being judgmental, cold, and harsh when you make a mistake, when difficulties arise or things don’t work out as expected won’t help you move on.

Listen to more on being kind to yourself first

What can you do to shift the mean-spirited critical voice to one that is kinder? Here are a few suggestions:

  1. Be More Consious with JournalingAfter you’ve been hard on yourself, take time to journal about what happened and how you talked to yourself. Think about the harsh way you judged yourself and ask if that way of thinking is really true? Then rewrite what you said, using new self-talk that’s more positive and supportive. Look for additonal ways to view what transpired to find more supportive things to say to yourself.

  2. Recognize It’s CommonThat’s the idea of shared humanity – how most people tend to beat themselves up. Once you wake up in this moment, you can sooth yourself with thoughts that you are not alone in this poor self-treatment. Anyone might feel inadequate, but some people have learned a better way to speak to themselves. You can too!

Dissolve negative beliefs with EFT Tapping in this episode

  1. Be Mindful of How You Talk to YourselfNotice when you are beating yourself up and shift into a kinder mode. Catch yourself in the moment of that horrible berating internal chatter. You can say to yourself, “Oh I’m being mean to myself again. What can I say instead to be kinder in this moment?”

Here are a few suggestions of kind things to say to yourself:

  • It’s OK, you’re still learning
  • I’ll do better next time or you’ll do better next time
  • My past is not indicative of my future
  • I’m cleaning the slate right now and starting fresh

Small Ways to Practice Self Kindness Every Day* Little treats like have a special cup of tea or coffee drink * Take three minutes to listen to a happy song, even sing or dance to it * Read something inspiring or positive * Step out into the sunshine for 5 minutes * Read your horoscope * Do a 3-minute meditation * Bless yourself – May kindness follow me throughout the day

Mostly importantly, be patient and kind with yourself about making this improvement. Don’t let frustration take you away from your path or greater self-kindness.

Any change takes practice and time to take hold. It’s not an overnight thing. You are rewriting years of patterned behavior and typical reactions. Kindness here is key to your success and part of the whole thing, right?

The reason for doing this is to be kind! Don’t build up unrealistic expectations and find another way or reason to beat yourself up. Be gentle. Be reasonable. And last but not least, please be KIND.

I’m not a therapist, but I’m an awesome Intuitive Coach. If you want help learning to practice self kindness, understanding yourself or your life and have questions for spirit, book your session here.

Your body’s discomfort holds messages from your spirit. That’s what Medical Intuitive, Christine Lang explains in this episode. She talks about how to discover what those messages mean, how to shield your own energy from others, and how to handle overwhelm among other energy topics.

Becoming a Medical IntuitiveI started by asking Christine how she went from attorney to medical intuitive. She explained that in her second year of law school, she developed terrible allergies which made her look like she was always crying. These increased when she graduated and got her corporate job.

She tried allergy meds, but back then there was only Benadryl which made her sleepy. Then, Christine discovered homeopathy which helped reduce her symptoms by 50%. She realized that stress was contributing to her allergies, so she learned Tai Chi and Yoga. Next, she studied Buddhism and learned to meditate.

Started on the Reiki PathHer Tai Chi instructor suggested she learn Reiki to give energy healing treatments. As she meditated to switch gears from lawyer mode to healer, before working on a client, she started hearing a word or phrase about the person.

Bravely, she’d mentioned it to the client who received it well and that’s how she knew something new was happening!

After that, Christine decided to figure out who she was talking to and her soul said, Welcome home.” She began training 3-4 hours a day to become a medical intuitive. This is how she learned about the “Trail of Damage” which is how people internalize stress, leading to symptoms where the stress is stored in the body.

Her healing practice flourished and she left the practice of law. That was 26 years ago! Christine was thrilled that her spirit would answer all her questions with great patience, such as, “Why do we have wrinkles?” or “Why do bad things happen to good people.”

How to Raise Your EnergyChristine says many people don’t have their energy coalesced or pulled together in the center of their body as it should be. By 10 AM most people are often scattered.

The first thing is to gather and recall your energy back into the center of your chest. Then pack it like a snowball and visualize it moving up and out of your body through your head. Or it can remain in your chest or travel to the third eye. This is how you connect with your spirit.

We talked about how I do the exact opposite! I expand my energy from the center of my chest and go out my crown chakra into the Milkyway to feel a part of everything. Out there is the cosmos, I call in my spirit helpers, angels, whole and healed ancestors, and higher self to get help and answers.

Our approaches are completely different but both are valid. I do connect with my spirit this way which surprised Christine, but as we all know, there is more than one way up the mountain, right?

To connect with your spirit, the very first step is to be quiet and still which is hard in the Western world. Most people on this side of the globe are reward by productivity and busyness. So, it’s hard to sit and do nothing which is what meditation seems like at first.

A Medical Intuitive Is a TranslatorChristine works with her clients as a translator between the client and their soul. She’s on a mission to find the cause of the symptom – that point of origin for when the discomfort started. So, as a medical intuitive, Christine asks, “What do we need to know about this symptom?”

Now the goal is not to just treat the symptom but expand your understanding of it to resolve it. She does send energy to do some healing. But the real idea is to resolve the problem that created the symptom. Then, your body will no longer need to send that message.

Your body is like a messaging service where your spirit sends you information through your symptoms. Again, Christine is the translator, so that the message is understood by the client and the pain or problem can go away.

The Intense Energy Right NowIn general, the energy feels crazy right now and many people feel overwhelmed. I don’t usually feel this way myself, but I have felt it too. My solution is to do some grounding.

When you are running around and it feels like one foot is nailed down and you are spinning in circles, the way to stop that is to nail down the other foot! Figuratively of course – this is GROUNDING. You cannot spin with two feet grounded. Phew!

Why is the energy so wild today? Christine says there’s a rapid expansion in process – energy is coming at you like a firehose pushing everyone to expand. This sets off alarm bells because things feel more intense which can easily move you into overwhelm.

Her solution is to go out in nature, whether that’s a walk in the woods or out in your yard. Nature adapts to these energy shifts much more quickly and easily than humans. In addition, nature will absorb the excess for you as it vibrates at the higher rate.

When the weather is good, you can weed your garden or walk on the grass. But another option is to simply stand outside and face the sun even if it’s cloudy. This activates your pineal gland in your third eye chakra, which allows you to access information.

The sun has codes or updates for you all the time which reset your energy, so take advantage of that with just a few minutes of sunlight. You don’t need forest bathing. Just a five to ten minutes outdoors will do the trick.

I’m such a sun girl that I wrote a poem or prayer about it.

Ode to the SunRising ball of golden light, I welcome you.
I pay homage to your fiery brilliance and omnipresent power.
Thank you for shining your light, growing food and resources
and healing the earth.
Thank you for warming my skin and bringing joy to my heart.
Thank you for lightening my spirit after too many grey winter days.
I appreciate you, I honor you, I am grateful for you.
Please visit often and remind me that you are ever present,
sharing your vital life force energy whether in view or not.

When I stand and face the sun, I just feel alive again!

Shielding Your EnergyWhen you interact with someone, you are trading energy. This is especially true for people you care about or are close to. You could absorb any negative energy they might send you whether they know they are doing it or not.

Shielding is a way to use your intention into not absorb the energy coming at you. The easiest way is to imagine dropping a sheet of glass between you and the other person. They can still hear and see you, and you can still sparkle brightly and be present, but you are protected.

Discover Remote Energy Healing in this Podcast

You can also put yourself in a protective bubble. You can still be present with the person, but you don’t need to absorb any negative energy they might be sending even if they are just aggravated and not with you.

This is really helpful at a hospital, police station, or at the department of motor vehicles where there is a lot of fear and or frustration. Then you might even close up your energy field for added protection.

Imagine a zipper at your feet and you zip it closed over your head. Now you won’t absorb that low vibe energy around you in these sorts of places.

These tiny energy tips are low effort and won’t take up a lot of energy or time. Yet, they have a big impact if you put your heart and soul into them, and do them consistently. You will get big results.

Try these little habits at the start of your day. I’m not suggesting you do all eight. Pick and choose what is right for you. You might choose only one of these tips to start your day. It’s up to you.

  1. Infuse Your Morning CuppaWhatever you drink as your morning beverage, this is the perfect time to infuse energy into the cup. If you’ve had Reiki training, that is a wonderful energy to use that’s filled with love and healing to put into your drink.

But even if you haven’t done Reiki, you can still send powerful energy into your cup. Imagine sending love, nourishment, peace, calm, creativity, or innovation. Anything that is your heart’s desire can be infused into your cup.

Take about a minute to charge your beverage with whatever you need for the day – then drink it! You are injesting all those good vibes – it’s amazing and so simple.

Now you can start your day off with a bang because you’re focusing your energy on what you want and giving it to yourself which is highly empowering.

  1. Set an Intention for Your DayWhen you set an intention for your day, you are setting yourself up to have the kind of day you want. You put your energy out in a focused way that creates a pathway for your day to follow. It’s making a statement to the Universe for how you want things to go.

Do this before you even get out of bed which puts you on the path to have the kind of day you want. You could do this by saying something like:

  • Today, I’m going to feel blessed
  • Today, I’m going to get everything on my list done
  • Today is going to be a lot of fun
  • Today everything goes smoothly, so I can relax at the end of the day.

You can change this every day or if you’re working on a big project, you can repeat the intention daily until it’s complete.

  1. Repeat this Empowering StatementThis is one of my favorite energy tips. I love to start my day by saying, “I am open to the magic that is all around me.” When I remember to say this, then, I am open to the magic. It’s everywhere, but it’s up to you to wake up, be aware, and notice that magic.

Unfortunately, like most people you are likely not noticing because you’re bogged down by all the things you’ve got to get done. Me too! It’s a choice to become more conscious, receptive, and aware of the magic!

You want to notice the signs and synchronicities that will guide you and give you confirmation that you’re on the right path. This might be numbers like 11:11, or an animal that crosses your path. Whatever it is, the magic is there to help you.

  1. Affirmational QuestionsThis is so simple. Take an affirmation and turn it into a question to confuse your your inner critic. For example, if you said, “I lose 10 lbs so easily” your inner critic might say, “Who are you kidding? That will never happen. You can’t stick to a diet. Blah, blah, blah.”

However, if you turn the affirmation into a question like this, “How did I get to be lucky enough to lose 10 lbs. so easily?” your brain will actually try to figure this out. This is how you circumvent your monkey mind or inner critic who will argue with a statement you aren’t sure you firmly believe.

It’s fun to say this out loud too, so give it a try!

  1. Sweep Your Front PorchThis is super easy! Take a minute or two every morning to sweep outside your front door. This is a Feng Shui, Asian tradition to keep the path to your front door clear, inviting good fortune.

You can do it outside your back door too, if you want. So simple, but energetically impactful! Listen to more on clearing your home here.

  1. Expand Your Energy FieldEverything is energy and you are a part of everything. When you expand your field, you blend with all there is. That means you now have access to everything you want! You can do this in a minute or two, it’s so quick.

Imagine you have a spark of divine white light in your heart center and as you breathe that spark grows until you are engulfed in a ball of white light. Then go out from the top of your head into the cosmos, past the earth, the moon, and the solar system, all the way to the Milky Way.

Now, you are in the galaxy, which is incredibly expansive. You can connect with your higher self, soul, spirit guides, angels, light beings, and your whole and healed ancestors. How magical is it to blend in with the fabric of the Universe? It’s truly blissful.

One thing to keep in mind: Call your energy back when finished, so you are standing in a column of light that is close to your body. If you’re an empath, this keeps you safe and from picking up anyone else’s energy. Don’t skip this step.

  1. Breathe Through Your HeartClose your eyes and imagine that you can breathe in through the front of your heart center and exhale through the back. This is calming and centering, and gets you in touch with your heart.

When you come from your heart, you know you are on the highest path. This works very fast to shift your energy and open your heart.

  1. Call in Your AngelsAnother simple tip – call in your angels. You have angels that watch over you. But they can’t help you unless you ask! They are waiting to help, so don’t hesitate. Plus, there are loads of angels with specific purposes like Archangel Michael who offers protection or Archangel Raphael for healing.

Just remember, when you call in a specific angel, say the name three times to get their attention. I did a whole episode on angels which you can listen to here.

There are two tiny tips including Paving the Way and Sugar Bowl Magic, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to catch them.

I’d love to hear from you about which of these tips you try and how they worked. Please feel free to tell me how it went in the comment section below. Thanks and have fun with these tips!

Wondering how to create a new identity and how this will change your life? A transformative healing can make this a positive experience. Find out what Akashic Reiki Master, Katie White, has to say about this process.

Breaking the Mold Several years ago, Katie made a bold decision at the high point in her corporate career to shift gears and forge a new path. Throughout growing up, she believed in the path presented to her about going to school and college, getting a job, buying a home, getting married and having children. These were the expectations that her family had for her.

But she was a brand-new mom who couldn’t face working the 50+ hours a week, commuting an hour each way, and everything else that made up her life. After 10 years, it was all too much for her and her body shut down. She couldn’t take it anymore.

A friend recommended Reiki as part of self-care and she had never felt as relaxed as she did after her first session. That was the start of her transformation.

So, Katie left her stable dream job with benefits. She wanted to figure out how to create a new identity so she could help other women like her, who felt overwhelmed, stressed, and living in survival mode to break that cycle.

Today, Katie works with the Akashic Records and Reiki combined. She said the Akash is a masculine, grounded, human conscious energy while Reiki is a very feminine energy, loving, nurturing, healing energy. When the two are combined, this anchors the healing and creates lasting transformation.

She works with past, present and future information and brings that through along with Reiki healing energy. This unique method helps people relax and create the ultimate space for healing. The Akash helps the human and the Reiki helps the soul. Together, this is a molding experience that helps interlocks changes and creates depth.

Today, people are doing so much with Reiki, from adding it to their magic, to clearing and healing, to calming anxiety with three minutes of Reiki for themselves. That’s so smart!

What Lights You Up?Then I asked Katie about how to create a new identity and why this is necessary. Many times her clients come to her at their wits end about something in their life they want to change but haven’t been able to accomplish.

But as a client heals and recovers, things change and then figuring out who she wants to be comes next. It’s so important to understand what makes you light up like a Christmas tree. You have to know what makes you happy and what you want in order to get it!

This often requires breaking societal standards and is an evolutionary process that takes some time. Clients have to release limiting beliefs about themselves or the expectations others have of them.

This is also true about difficult relationships that shrink them and put them into depression or anxiety. You have to rise above this and then you can learn how to create a new identity.

Typically, it’s a gradual process, but before she starts to wrap up her work, she dives into what your soul is here to do, anchor into that, come up with actionable steps to make that happen now.

What Do You Want?It’s often easier to talk about what you don’t want but that is also a great place to start the journey. This is where Katie goes into the Akashic Records to look at the past, and then look at what will serve her client right now from where the person is today. Then she can tap into the potential future.

Guidance from the Akash comes through to provide new perspectives and open new possibilities for her clients. And this is how to create a new identity.

Psychic AbilitiesKatie discovered that her psychic abilities include quite a few areas. From inner knowing and the empathic ability to feel what her clients feel, to her psychic medium gift to hear messages from past loved ones. Plus, the ability to visualize the energy.

So that’s claircognizant (knowing), clairaudient (hearing), and clairvoyant (seeing). Then I asked Katie which one is her favorite. She said seeing which is my favorite too! Nothing like a good vision.

Creating a New IdentityHere’s one client story. A client arrived saying she had a lot of baggage and her life was a train wreck. They worked together for seven months, doing Reiki, inner child and past life work. Katie could tell the woman also needed somatic movement to release the emotions stuck in her body and essential oils helped too.

The client ended up losing 30 pounds in just a couple of months as part of dropping her baggage. However, this caused the client to question who she was. She realized she needed a new identity, having released all that baggage.

As the weight fell off too, she wondered who am I without that baggage and the weight, right? Who is this happier, thinner person? She needed to know how to create a new identity that fit this new, lighter person.

That was the beautiful part. They created a new identity aligned with her higher self, without the baggage and today, she’s on fire. Her business is taking off and she’s figuring out how to engage better with her kids and husband. Things are really moving which is like a ripple effect taking place.

Illuminating Natural RadianceKatie says everyone has a light inside them – that is your spirit or soul. Your soul chose this time and place, all the struggles and joys of the human experience. So, when you flow with life, your natural radiance comes out.

Many people are feeling the darkness and can’t seem to get past the subconscious stories and limiting thoughts. But like her client who lost weight and dropped all those stories, she can now shine. She flows with that natural radiance since there is far less resistance.

Her client leans into grace and more healing and self-care, allowing that to push out the darkness. Now she knows things are going to work out. It’s like turning on a flashlight and once you have the awareness, you can’t turn it off.

We also talked about patterns Katie has noticed in her clients and how everything in life is a mirror, reflecting her own path and journey. She works with career challenges, relationships, perspective shifts, people pleasing and rule following.

Overall, Katie works with women, who like herself, want to break the mold and strike out in their own direction. How to create a new identity is a big part of the reward for doing that hard work.

Katie has a fabulous Free Gift, a meditation series called 5 Days to Calm Download yours today!

BIO – Katie WhiteKatie White is a Trauma Informed Akashic Reiki Master Teacher, who could no longer ignore the powerful nudge to shift her life. She made a bold decision to trust her intuition, stop living the cookie cutter life and playing small, and commit to build a life she was proud of.

Katie works with empathetic souls craving freedom from mental and physical pain and uses various healing experiences to help you rediscover yourself on a path to whole-body happiness. By commanding the energy around you, embodying your trauma and holding it with confident, gentle understanding, she’s able to bring awareness to subconscious thoughts that are holding you back and shift them providing healing that lasts.

Truthfully, Katie never felt like she belonged anywhere, until she experienced the unshakable power of this work. When you are in her presence, she is absolutely honored to illuminate the natural radiance within you.

Ready to manifest love? Discover my secrets about how I found love and my proven methods shared with private clients. This is a jam packed episode!

This episode focuses on the inner steps for finding love. It’s not about who should call first, pay for dates, anything about texting, or how to use the apps.

Instead, in this episode I’m talking about how to believe in love, raise your vibration, and make the most of several proven manifesting methods that worked for me and 20 years worth of dating coaching clients.

This includes mindset work, raising your vibration, affirmations with a unique application, what I did to heal my heart and move myself forward. Plus, how I worked with and used Law of Attraction, vision boards and so much more.

Listen to more on Law of Attraction and Love here.

Taking all these steps and investing yourself in the process ensures that when you take action, you’ll be fully aligned with your intention for love. That’s the best way to make it happen!

Affirmations for Love!I’m quite sure that any woman who truly desires love and is willing to take the needed steps, can and WILL find love! You were born to be in a loving relationship with the right guy who is supportive, fun, intelligent and more. It’s your destiny!

This first thing to manifest love is to get your own loving energy within your heart moving again. I did this with very specific affirmations. You want to begin at ground zero which is to start believing that you can and will find love. There is a man for you and he is out there waiting for you as well!

So, don’t start your affirmations with marrying the ideal man. That could easily create resistance because internally, you aren’t there yet. Start with simply believing finding love for you is possible.

The purpose of affirmations is to convince your subconscious mind that what you want is possible. And this is done with repetition!

Then at some point your subconscious mind will pick up on the affirmations and you can up your game and change the affirmation to something stronger. Maybe, “I am in a loving relationship with a wonderful man.” Then you can move on to a marriage affirmation next, all part of the Law of Attraction for love.

I said my affirmations throughout the day. When I took my morning walk, while doing dishes, in the shower, while driving and more. This is not a 10-minutes and done exercise, but don’t worry, you don’t need to carve time out of your busy day. You can say them when you are doing other mundane tasks.

Within just a few weeks of starting my affirmations, a friend called to set me up on a blind date! That worked so much faster than I could imagine. I said yes and we dated for six months, but he wasn’t the right man. However, he sure was the right man to get me started on this path to find love.

Taking Action to Find “The One”I also started working the outer path at the same time to manifest love. That means I went out to meet men. How can the right man find me if I’m not making myself available and getting out there?

In addition, I used personal ads which were the most prevalent method available before online dating became a mainstream thing. Just 22 words and a voicemail – no photo at all!

But it was really fun! I enjoyed this method of meeting men. There was a time when things got a little crazy and I was dating three guys named John!

All of this was a big piece of my spiritual journey as I came to firmly believe that love was my destiny. And that the right man for me was available and looking for me too. We would find each other!

Your Belief in Love Is EssentialBelieving strong that love was my destiny fueled the fire and kept me going. It kept me taking action so I didn’t throw in the towel and quit. You can’t just manifest love through inner work, you also have to take action which is meeting men.

Feng Shui was part of my method and I created a beautiful love corner. It was a lot of fun and gave me an area of focus when it came to love. You can listen to my podcast on Feng Shui for the Bedroom to learn a lot more.

There’s so much more in this episode about my journey to manifest love including a meditation where Mother Mary came to me with advice which was a total shocker. I felt so honored by this visitation and quite surprised, but greatly appreciative.

The end of the story is that I dated 30 men in 15 months to find the man I’ve been married to for over 20 years and we are still very happy and going strong.

There is a spiritual meaning of birds. Have you ever been outside, hoping to see a sign about something and suddenly you see a bird? My guest, Catherine Bastedo, author of the Bird Vibes Meditation Cards talks about this and the spiritual messages birds offer.

It Started With ReikiI asked Catherine how she got involved with Reiki which was her entre into the spiritual world. She heard about it three times in one week so she pursued that and took her first course. Reiki helped her release stress and she loved it.

No question that Reiki and yoga are two powerful pathways to spiritual development. After the 21-day period following my first Reiki attunement, I had a big opening and started to channel.

Then after the passing of a young colleague, she realized life was fragile. Catherine wondered what she hadn’t done yet that she should investigate. Besides world travel, one thought became prominent – Reiki. Next, she left her high-level government job to pursue her spiritual interests full time.

A Hawk on Her ShoulderOne great story was how Catherine discovered her connection to birds and their messages. She walked into a woman’s office which had several angel pictures, and the woman said, “Catherine, you have a hawk on your shoulder and it’s wing is broken. ”

Being spiritually tuned in, the woman explained that hawk symbolizes a messenger and she had messages for people. This was the start of Catherine’s understanding about the spiritual meaning of birds. The broken winged hawk disappeared after her first edition of the Bird Vibe cards was completed.

During this process, Catherine started seeing lots of birds and unusual ones as well, all trying to get her attention. Catherine has personally seen every bird in her deck.

I mentioned that I had seen a peregrine falcon once out my bedroom window sitting on a first floor roof, looking in the window at me! Catherine explained this was a message about connecting with source.

Another woman told her that the deck wasn’t quite done and she needed five more cards. Catherine came up with the season cards and then she saw a snowy owl, which became the symbol for her entire deck.

Birds Coordinate with ChakrasOne interesting characteristic of Catherine’s Bird Vibe cards is that each bird is associated with a chakra. I asked how she figured out which bird goes with which chakra.

The color of the bird and the chakra factored into her decision. Plus, it was determined by how the bird moved and behaved. She also asked spirit for some inspiration!

Cat Bird SynchronicityA fun synchronicity happened as Catherine talked about the catbird which she says has a fabulous singing voice and mimics other birds. At that point, I mentioned a bird in my backyard that sings what sounds like the name “Eric”.

As I was editing this recording, I Googled, “What bird song sounds like ‘Eric’?” I couldn’t believe it when I saw that it’s a gray catbird!

Birds are amazing to watch, noticing their different habits and songs which are different depending on the time of year. Loads of people admit to being bird watchers.

Magical MomentsI asked Catherine for one magical moment with a bird that she could share. Once on a yoga retreat in the countryside, she was sitting by a river alone and a huge bird flew overhead. It was a golden eagle, and it’s rather unusual to spot one.

That bird was giving her a message that it wanted to be included in her deck. It’s card #43 which is about leadership and vision. Accept and embrace your spiritual power. Spread your wings and soar, but remember to stay connected to the earth.

Another great example of the spiritual meaning of birds.

Catherine says we need to be connected to spirit but also stay grounded to get things done on earth. Cardinals come up often when someone has passed away. Certain birds frequently come to her clients like blue jays or robins.

The Joy WalkThese beautiful cards, each one hand painted, are also meditation cards. She recommends taking a “Joy walk” which means to be mindful and enjoy what the nature around you while you are walking. This offers the perfect mindset to notice signs, like birds, and what spirit has to tell you.

There are things in nature that will easily lift your spirit or provide a message. There were a few more heart-warming stories and then Catherine picked a card for me and one for the listeners.

For me, Catherine picked a yellow-bellied sap sucker which is a woodpecker. The message is, “Set the beat.” The drumming of this bird happens in spring as part of the mating rituals.

This card’s message for me is, “Re-examine your activities, make the necessary changes to your rhythm of life, and strengthen your boundaries.”

For the group, she picked the raven which is about “Use your tools.” This dark bird looks intense against the purple background.

The meaning is that the common raven has remarkable problem solving intelligence. The low croak reminds us that magic is in the air. The raven insists that you do have the power, resources and understanding so think about how to use these.

BIO – Catherine BastedoA Reiki Master who has always been fascinated by birds, she has now created a fabulous oracle deck called Bird Vibes mediation cards.

Over the last 15 years, Catherine has taught Reiki including an intensive master program. She leads workshops and retreats, volunteered as a wellness coach for cancer survivors and sat on the board of a non-profit organization devoted to Women’s Health.

She also practices yoga and meditation and writes online articles related to complimentary health. Prior to this, Catherine enjoyed a fulfilling career with the Canadian government.

If you want to feel happier, discover how to raise your vibration with these quick and easy methods I call magical self-care.

Update on My Spiritual AdventureI want to update on my Spiritual Adventure because this is how I’ve come to the idea of Magical Self-Care.

Over the summer I took a Celtic Shamanism workshop and went on a journey where I met Merlin. That was a big surprise by itself.

Merlin let me know I was embarking on a spiritual adventure that had no destination, no map, no goal, and no guide. The point was to let go and see where it takes me. I like to plan and know where I’m going, so this kind of shook me up! It’s a control thing.

You can listen to the start of my spiritual adventure here.

Find Joy in the Present MomentFor me, this meant I needed to learn how to find joy in the moment and focus on now. Without a goal there is only now, right? Enjoying the present became my priority because that is what my adventure is about.

This is also true about life, even though we often make it about creating the future. I’d like to feel happier on a daily basis, so this journey is aligned with that desire.

Working with a somatic coach, I created a gesture I call the Sunflower Pose. I stand straight, chin lifted a bit, the spread my arms out wide to the side with palms up. As I do this I say, “I open to the divine flow of creativity, abundance, and joy.”

Hear more about my Somatic experience with Jen Aks in this episode.

Doing this always brings a smile to my face immediately. It’s an automatic reaction every time. I love it! What a wonderful and empowering way to set my intention for the day.

A Fear of HappinessAs the journey continued, I discovered I have a fear of happiness. I worried that if I allowed myself to be happy, then something bad would happen.

For example, after I got married, which had been a major goal for so long, I was constantly looking over my shoulder. I had this crazy idea that the other shoe would drop. That put me on pins and needles for months. Thankfully, 20 years later, we are still going strong!

Recently, that fear of happiness showed up again in the middle of another somatic session. But something new occurred.

I heard a strong voice – one I’ve heard before in my life with unsolicited, important guidance. This is not a voice I ever conjure up by asking. But this emphatic guidance shows up sometimes when I need it most.

The inner voice said, “You have both feet on the ground. There is no other shoe.” Wow, that sort of blew me away! That statement dragged me out of my future fears and planted me firmly in the present. Everything is OK right now.

This is evidence that I am improving! I didn’t wrestle with the fear and let it over take me as usual. Instead, I stopped that old pattern, which is very exciting to me.

Big AwakeningThen, I had a big awakening over the holidays that helped me see what my true values are today and how I measure my success, which is living a magical life. I don’t measure it by my job, or possessions, or travel, but by the magical moments I experience. That was a revelation.

Magical moments include talking to my basil plants. Also having two little orange moths sit on my arm and do a synchronized dance. And let’s not forget connecting with Merlin.

Hear more about my basil plants and moth dance at the start of this episode.

I talked to the fire element on the Summer Solstice – that was unique and exciting! I have been doing more things that I enjoy. This is what matters most to me now.

How to Raise Your VibrationAfter Christmas, I got together with my friend, Carrie, and we always do intuitive work. We both wanted to know how to raise our vibration and keep it there longer.

We got a similar answer about creating a ritual to do twice a day. It takes just a minute really and I have been definitely seeing a difference. (I’ll share the specifics in the next episode about magical Self-Care.)

In fact, I had this crazy idea moving into 2024 – what if my life became so magical that I couldn’t even keep track and write it all down anymore?

I’m not usually that optimistic, so that was another shocker. It’s also another piece of evidence that I am, in fact, raising my vibration to even have such an expansive thought! Wahoo!

Raising your vibration is not rocket science and much of it is not original. But this stuff is working for me, so I want to share it with you.

Are You Ready to Feel Happier?The question is, are you ready to feel happier and raise your vibration? Are you ready to experience more magic in your life? I sure hope you are.

I’m going to share a bunch of ways to raise your vibration but I don’t want you to get overwhelmed. Today I’m just going to share five and hopefully something in here will work for you.

Maybe you already do some of these things daily. A little reminder is always good. These activities are magical because they help you reconnect with your true self, your higher self and spirit itself.

Magical Self-Care1. Clear Your Energy Field.There are lots of different ways to clear your field and when you do, you are automatically a higher vibration! The more you clear your field, the higher your vibe can go.

  • Smudge or use Palo Santo wood to clear your body, office, and home
  • Essential oils like doTerra’s Purify – breathe it in and clear your field
  • Epsom salt baths and treat yourself to something like coconut or lemon
  • Walk in the rain or near running water to clear positive ions
  • Have a Reiki session or try my Soul Intelligence clearing session
  • Clear your chakras – the options are endless!

  • Three Chants to Raise Your VibrationI love chanting as a way to raise your vibration. This uses your vocal cords, since your body is made of mostly water (some say more than 70%), the sound from chanting affects the vibe of all that liquid! Here are my three faves:

  • Chant for Ganesha

  • Magic Mantra
  • Chant to Feel a Part of Everything

  • Dancing and MovementSome people love to move and express themselves through dance. Moving your body definitely can raise your vibration because it moves the energy! Whenever your express yourself and feel happy, you are automatically lifting your vibe.

If you like to dance, this is a surefire way to go!

  1. Immerse Yourself in BeautyBeauty itself is a higher vibration. Let’s start with color. Colors each have their own vibration which is a reason to intentionally choose the colors you wear. This is also true about your environment and how you decorate.

Beauty is also about balancing energy. Have beautiful things around you and treat yourself well. Everyone is different but you might enjoy jewelry, makeup clothing, hair, beautiful accessories for your home, furnishings, carpets, artwork and more.

If you feel good in your body, clothing, and environment, you’ll feel happier. What a great way to raise your vibration!

  1. Do Something CreativeWhen you work on a creative project, you are no longer stuck in your head. You’ll be in the present moment using your creative energy, which is an incredible source of joy.

Maybe you sing, write songs, play the guitar, paint, art journal, make jewelry, arrange flowers, knit or crochet. These are all wonderful ways to play, have fun, and be in creative energy which absolutely will raise your vibration!

Neil Gaur talks about evidence for changing the timeline of ancient history, including Atlantis, Lemuria, and ancient Egypt.

Portal to AscensionI started the interview by asking how he got started with the Portal to Ascension and running conferences about metaphysical topics and ancient history.

Neil explained that he was raised Hindu in California. He was never told that was the only path, which allowed him to be open to other religions. He studied many and read a lot of old spiritual texts. Next he started a Facebook group which grew rapidly and is now called Portal to Ascension.

Conference on AtlantisOne program that got my attention was a two-day conference with a deep dive into Atlantis.

One speaker talked about hypnosis and her client’s past life memories of Atlantis. Another spoke about archeological evidence of it’s existence, and a channeler talked about day-to-day activities and life on Atlantis.

He also has a program about ancient Egypt and how it might have been connected to Atlantis and is far older than conventional history states. His own presentation was called From Atlantis to Morocco.

He delved into why Egypt didn’t seem to have an empire like Rome or Greece and how this seemed strange. However, his point is that the Sahara Desert could easily be hiding evidence of their empire, in addition to their holdings in northern Africa.

The Big FloodNext we spoke about Graham Hancock, a journalist who has explored ancient history around the world. He uncovered tons of evidence in his Netflix series, Ancient Apocalypse, that civilization goes back to the last ice age, much older than archeologists would have you believe.

Hancock’s main point is that there was a cataclysmic event on earth 12,800 years ago that caused a rapid rise of water. Sounds a lot like the Noah’s Ark story, right? But a whole lot older.

Anyway, he travels the globe talking to local archeologists about the ancient sites. There’s evidence that this truly changes the entire narrative

As it turns out, there are pyramids on every continent, including Antarctica, which has been seen from above peaking out of the ice that’s melting! Scientists have taken core samples there to discover at one time it had a tropical climate.

The Epic of GilgameshWhile Neil was studying ancient texts, he read the Sumarian scripts called the 7 Tablets of Creation which included the Epic of Gilgamesh.

After the great flood, Gilgamesh, a Neflin giant or hybrid, traveled the globe meeting survivors. He met Noah but how is he included in this pagan text which talks about giants, hybrids and star beings when he was from the Abrahamic monotheistic story? Good question! So many things lead to changing the timeline of ancient history.

The ancient flood created a reset of civilization where humanity had to start over again. That’s why Neil says we must try to understand what needs to be learned, to avoid this reset which supposedly happens approximately every 13,000 years.

Learn from Mankind’s MistakesThe point of understanding ancient civilization is to learn from their mistakes. It would be smart to transcend and avoid repeating devastating mistakes that were made in the past.

Neil talked about how the ultimate goal for humanity is to move forward into the future more evolved, instead of getting reset with some big huge global catastrophic event. History does repeat itself when lessons are not learned.

What Was Atlantis Like?What was the civilization of Atlantis like at the height of their civilization? Neil claims it was like a utopian society, focusing on higher consciousness and communicating with star beings. They also engaged in open trade with other planets and star systems.

The Atlanteans used crystals to communicate with beings in various star systems. At the time, the humans were in full remembrance of their past lives and who they really were as spirits. They did not have amnesia as we do today about our true selves.

The earth climate was very stable since the earth was straight on it’s axis and there are stories that the moon wasn’t even around at that time.

How Did Atlantis Fall?This happened in three stages. It wasn’t one big cataclysm and the people weren’t surprised by it. They were spiritually advanced enough to know about the cycles of time and they prepared for the reset and events that followed.

Many survived, some people went to Egypt, others went to different star systems. And there were those who decided to stay and go out with the continent. Since evidence seems to be coming to the surface about this civilization, changing the timeline of ancient history is starting to be realistic.

Atlantis Vs. LemuriaIf these two civilizations were so advanced, why was there animosity or disdain for each other?

Neil said Lemuria sank under the Pacific Ocean and some survivors went to Atlantis to live. The Atlanteans embodied the energy of the Divine Masculine which fell from grace and became the wounded masculine. This is the foundation of our society today.

The Atlanteans were all about technology, space craft, healing with technology and structural energy.

On the other hand, the Lemurians embodied the Divine Feminine energy and were more creative and into nature. This contrast set up some of the division between the two lands.

As the energy degenerated, people got into judgement, anger and frustration. Plus, the Atlanteans were using technology or the external world for things they should have been doing internally or intuitively.

The shift in frequency of civilization changed everything that caused the rift in which they could no longer see eye to eye about the world.

Changing the Timeline of Ancient HistoryI asked Neil about our changing the timeline of ancient history. Where does he think our viewpoint on history is today? Neil talked about his program entitled Galatic Origins, Dimensions, and Black Holes which shows how dimensions and black holes work, and tracks the position of our solar system in our galaxy.

Turns out there is scientific evidence that an ascension process is occurring! Also from physics.org, there is more scientific proof that the earth adheres to some kind of cosmic pattern that repeats every 13,000 years.

These cycles affect the consciousness and the frequency of the planet which can be proved scientifically. This is an advancement in higher consciousness.

Simply mind-blowing!

Do you wish you could talk to your pet? That’s what my guest Sharon Warner, Animal Communicator is talking about in this week’s episode.

Pet PsychicsThinking about what kind of topics I haven’t covered yet, the idea of pet psychic came to mind. But I didn’t think I knew any. Except, I did!

I remembered many of my friends talking about a local gal, Sharon Warner, who had helped them so much when they were having pet troubles. Things like animals not getting along or misbehaving, etc.

When I called to ask Sharon to be my guest, and inquired about how she got started, she surprised the heck out of me with her answer.

Turns out, she got started using her intuition over 20 years ago after taking my class on intuition! I was shocked and laughed my butt off hearing that one.

Having been teaching and doing readings for more than 20 years, it was nice to hear that one of my students started using her gifts to help others. It all started in my continuing education class held at the local high school. How funny!

Becoming an Animal CommunicatorHow did Sharon go from my class on intuition to being an animal communicator who my friends relied on for their pets? It started with her own dog who was a rescue animal and unfortunately was peeing in the house. He’d never been properly trained.

She sought an animal communicator for help. The woman talked to both her dog and her cat. They discovered the dog had terrible separation anxiety and so she brought the dog to parents during the day while she worked. That helped him a lot.

Later, while going through a divorce, Sharon wanted to find something fun to do and the pet psychic she had used was offering a class. She signed up and discovered it was really easy for her to do this work. it just clicked and she trusted it.

Sharon practiced with friends. Then the guy she was dating pointed out she really had a gift and suggested she start charging for the services.

Sometime later, she started working at psychic fairs as a pet psychic. She learned how to get and deliver the information quickly, in just 15 minutes and really trust herself.

Intuition Is Coded in Your DNAIntuition is a part of who we are, built into our DNA. And trusting your gut is wise because there are 500 million neurons connecting your gut directly to your brain. This has been scientifically proven!

I also worked at psychic fairs and that’s how I learned to do psychic work and trust myself. When you only have 15 minutes with a client, you don’t have time to second guess yourself. You get the information and deliver it right away.

Her Dog Was HexedRecently, a friend of mine told me her dog had cancer on it’s paw. I offered to use the Soul Intelligence energy clearing which works on people and pets. It seems her adrenal glands were very taxed and I tried to clear them three times.

When things won’t clear energetically, there might be a curse or a vow and intuitively, I did hear the word “Hex.” So, I said the prayer to clear a curse and checked in again – the adrenals were now clear!

Then I was a little nervous to tell this to my friend. But I figured she knows me so just be brave and say what I discovered. I asked if she had a neighbor who might have cursed her dog and she said YES!

We talked about how you can throw a curse without meaning it intentionally. Her neighbor had complained about her dog barking while outside.

My friend thought the woman might have wished the dog would stop barking permanently. That would be a curse, even though she meant no harm.

Shows you the incredible power of your thoughts and words and why you want to be more conscious about both.

How She Helps PetsSharon says she mostly helps people with their pets regarding behavior, introducing a new animal into your home, pets getting along, and pet injuries to know what happened.

She can even check a pet’s history that’s been rescued. She does this for a re-homing group that wants all the information they can get to ensure a good placement for the animals.

Animal Communicator ExamplesA client called Sharon to ask what was wrong with a dog she was watching. A couple asked her to watch both of their dogs while the husband was recovering from surgery. But the female dog really hated her and gave her a hard time.

Turns out the dog just needed to hear this situation was temporary. Right after the call, the dog immediately became friendly and much happier. Amazing!

There was another story about re-homing a Macaw that was beyond belief but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to get this tale. She gets chills every time she tells this anecdote.

Stories about Talking with PetsI also mentioned a black panther in a South African animal rescue preserve, called Diablo, which totally blew me away. If you’ve got time, watch this video – its so worthwhile.

The panther didn’t like that name and was difficult and aloof, but after talking to the animal communicator, he allowed the preserve owner to speak with him and their relationship began from there.

Sharon talked about how animals are pure love and joy, and love their people. She also mentioned horses are more complex than other animals and like to be really connected to their owners.

They’re also super intuitive which I learned from the Equus coach I interviewed.

I relayed a story about doing a reading for a girlfriend years ago. I saw a cat around her and asked about that. Turns out she had a cat for 21 years and that was her cat – still hanging around. Sharon thinks her cat had become one of my friend’s guides.

What Sharon Wants You to Know* Almost anyone can communicate with animals. * Remember your pets are having an animal experience, so be careful not to humanize their situations or put your own emotions on the animal. * Animal communicators don’t have a magic wand and aren’t necessarily animal trainers. * She’s not a vet or nutritionist either. * She simply talks with your animal to learn what they need. * Your animals are listening when you talk to them, especially when it’s about them. * They are affected by your stress and what is going on in the home. * Animals don’t get to vent, so talking with a pet psychic can help them unload. * Sometimes all you’ll hear is how your pet want more treats! LOL

Tips On Talking With Your Pets1. Quiet your mind. One easy way is to do this before going to bed with the lights off and everything quiet. 2. Visualize your pet. Feel your pet in your heart and how much you love them. Then see what comes to you. 3. Everyone’s intuitive abilities show up differently which could include hearing, seeing, feeling, or knowing. 4. Communication is often short phrases, maybe a word, a visual, symbol or feeling. 5. Ask specific questions once you connect and trust what you get.

BIO – Sharon WarnerSharon Warner is an Animal Communicator, who took Ronnie’s Intuition and Creating Abundance Class 20 years ago which got her started. After lots of practice and taking classes, today she communicates with your pets (alive or deceased).

Sharon connects with you and/or your pet’s energy and works with a “spiritual team” of Angels, Guides, Elementals, and Beings in the Light. She gains perspective and insights about relationships, health issues, behavior problems, end of life issues, and other important aspects of your life and the life of your pet.

The messages she receives are practical, straight forward, yet loving and supportive. She can connect with more than one pet in the same session. Sharon loves being able to help people and their pets to live a love and joy-filled life as best they can.

What’s happening in 2024? Let’s cut through the cosmic fluff flying around out there and get to the bottom line of what we can expect and look forward to in the year to come.

A Spiritual ForecastMy guest this week, Melissa Oatman, shares her channeled wisdom to provide much needed insights and inspiration about what’s to come in 2024.

First, let’s be honest. Looking back, 2023 was a tough year. Many people felt stuck or almost like you were going backwards! The reason is 2023 was a year for learning lessons, one after another. Melissa said it felt like 50 Mercury retrogrades!

Why is that? It was a preparatory year where you were planting seeds that will sprout in 2024. And you were learning about patience because that takes time.

Melissa says the first thing to know about the spiritual forecast 2024 is to create greater balance between home and work. You’ll be able to focus more on friends and family and your own life. Who doesn’t want more balance?

More PeaceThere’s a call for more peace in your life and working on forgiveness. It’s time to let go of harsh emotions to raise your vibration and get to that greater sense of peace.

Most likely you’ll have to learn to say no to some things, so you can say yes to others. You can’t keep adding to your life. Instead, you have to find a way to winnow out activities that no longer serve you and create priorities.

This is where cord cutting can make a big difference. Cutting ties with those who aren’t supportive or don’t have your best interest at heart is an essential part of growth.

You don’t need to have a real-life conversation – you can talk to the person’s higher self in your mind, then let them go.

Rapid Spiritual GrowthThis year is about rapid growth, especially with your spiritual gifts. Pam Gregory, a YouTube astrologer has also talked about this as well. She says the year is going to go lickety split! If you are already intuitive, then know more is on the way because the veil continues thinning.

This year is also about finding what inspires you. In 2023, most people felt like they were just keeping their head about water. Once Covid hit, many folks realized their life was out of whack and needing several areas to be addressed.

But in 2024, a lot of this work is behind you, so get ready to step into what you’ve created. Rissa Miller who offers tea and smoke readings, said for people who might not be as advanced with their spiritual unfolding, there can be big jumps.

Here’s the interview with Rissa Miller

You might use your intuition more easily, increase your skill, or use it more often. This is a good time to trust your gut and listen to your hunches. Sometimes it’s the little things that really make the difference.

New doors will be opening, but you have to listen to your intuition and see the signs so you don’t miss it. Follow those hunches, even if it’s just to go out and get a coffee. You never know who you might meet!

View Life from a Higher PerspectiveBe willing to release fear-based thinking. Today, the news is basically fear-mongering – sensationalism sells. But the Universe wants you to look at life and the world from a higher perspective.

Remember we are all one. Ask yourself if what you are doing is for the good of all.

Of course, that doesn’t mean you can never put yourself first. But it’s also true that we can co-exist and think about each other and the planet. You can take small steps that make a difference. Like using less plastic wrap and paper plates or planting a garden.

Neither Melissa nor I want to dig in the dirt, but we both have gardens which we enjoy. You don’t spend hour upon hour to gain the benefits of gardening.

Keep the Lessons, Release the PainThe Universe wants you to let go of the heavy burdens. Remember the lessons of course. But how you look back at it matters. Don’t see yourself as a victim, but recognize what the lessons were and the positive results.

It’s so important to celebrate what you have learned and the challenges you have survived. Take time to acknowledge those shifts. Appreciate where you are and what you have overcome.

Melissa has been through a lot in the last few years with her mom passing and her ex-husband committing suicide. So, she wrote a book to better handle what she needs to process and has another coming out in 2024.

Listen to another interview with Melissa Oatman

Being present to where you are right now will help you be open to new opportunities, rather than thinking of yourself as a victim and feeling stuck. This is empowering and the Universe has a good plan for you – trust that.

When you take action now in 2024, the energy will flow to you to help create your dreams. If you’ve been waiting for your dream job or the right relationship, it’s coming. This is going to be the year.

Melissa has heard this year is going to be so wonderful, you might not recognize your life!

Action StepsSit down and do a review of your life. Think about what brings you down and what you want to let go of. Start saying no to things that interfere with your joy or take up too much time.

Next, think about what brings you joy. Is it travel local or exotic? Maybe you’re a foodie and you want to take a cooking class. Make time to do things that make you happy – this helps to create the balance you seek.

What’s something you have always wanted to do? Do it! If you don’t like it, you only wasted a little money and time. Try things to discover what you enjoy.

2024 Forecast in a Nutshell* More balance between home and work life * More family time * It’s an abundance year * Reap rewards from the work you’ve already done * View life from the higher perspective * Shift to love and away from fear * Listen to your intuition, so you don’t miss new opportunities!

What a fabulous look into the new year!

The post What Does 2024 Mean For You? Listen To The Good News! appeared first on Intuitive Edge.

My friend Marla, the Mystical Matchmaker and I reviewed the lessons we learned in 2023, including the synchronicities and magic that came to our aid.

We moved on to talk about 2024 and how to be open to the most magical life possible. Plus, Marla picked some cards to give us a heads up for the year to come.

Notice the Little SignsOne thing we both agreed on, was noticing the little signs really helps. The guidance I seek is not always some big message. So, you have to keep your eyes and ears open to notice what comes your way, even tiny messages count.

There is help out there and sometimes, it boils down to simply asking for it. Marla was taking care of her dear mom as she was slowly passing at home which was her wish. But that was a lot to handle all by herself.

Talking with her cousin Wendy, she was explaining the hardship when Wendy offered to come stay with her to help. She was there for the last six days of Marla’s mother’s life and this made a huge difference.

Even though she didn’t ask directly, she had been asking the Universe to send help and thankfully, Wendy answered the call!

Another story Marla told was about her beloved dog, Macy. Poor Macy had a tumor that needed to be removed and all the tests plus surgery created a bill of $2,500.

Then the very next day, Marla landed a new coaching client for…you guessed it! $2,500!

I shared a story about being on a summit of speakers and how someone had sort of copied a talk title from me. This got me all riled up and distracted from practicing my own presentation which was to be delivered the next day.

Watch for ConfirmationFinally, I woke up in the moment and said to the part of myself who was bitching away, “Hey, let’s figure out what I can do, how I want to present myself, and what I want to share.”

I thought of this as redirecting my “Inner Bitch” and getting her to focus on what would be helpful – not complaining about someone else. I only have control of myself, right?

That worked! I did a great presentation and stopped worrying about that other woman. Who cares what she does?

The next day, my client was talking about a problem at work and her own inner bitch was complaining and worried about not being helpful or nice. I explained that all she needed to do was set a clear boundary and make it fact based, not emotional.

She just needed to be bold and say, “I’m sorry I can’t do that for you, but I can do this.” Redirecting her energy to what she could do helped her feel more empowered about the situation and she handled it beautifully.

This conversation was the perfect confirmation that I was on the right path with this “Inner Bitch” idea and I’m going to offer something in 2024 using this concept.

It’s important to be in charge of yourself to avoid potential chronic health issues. This energy can get stuck in your body and cause problems later down the road. That’s why I always recommend energy clearing.

Avoid Piling Up ComplaintsMarla and I talked a lot about not letting the issues in your life pile up. Avoid allowing the complaining to get out of control and seeing everything as a crisis because this keeps it all active in your energy field.

We are not saying you shouldn’t feel your feelings. Of course, you have to process them – this is part of being human. Yet, you don’t have to stay stuck on your problems.

If you want to open up your magic, shift your focus to see solutions or focus on what you do want to create.

Oracle Card Reading for 2024Then Marla pulled some oracle cards and chose the card Lady Venus which is about downloads and understanding. It said truth is being revealed and deep insights are coming from the heavens.

So, when you release the chaos and worry, that’s when you get the insights. Put away the drama and let the drama queen go, so you can step into your power.

I laughed when Marla pointed out that for ladies of a certain age, it’s time to make things count. You don’t have that many decades to waste on drama anymore and playing in the muck. Good point!

The next card was Charity – prayer and contemplation. Connect with heaven and receive. Ask and you shall receive. And she picked Archangel Michael – surrender your concerns and allow a miracle to occur.

Switching decks, she picked from the moon cards. The first card was the new Moon in Capricorn which is about your hard work paying off! Yes! Full Moon in Aquarius – show the world the real you. The last one – the New Moon is about how a new start is coming.

Amazing! Show up as yourself, don’t worry about what anyone else thinks, and be the real you for a fresh start.

Another card popped out, which was the North Node. It’s about stepping out of your comfort zone to step up in a bigger way. 2024 has so much powerful potential, so think about where you can step things up.

One thing you can do to start the year fresh is to sweep your front stoop and wash your front door. These are tips from Feng Shui. Plus, you can smudge your entire house for the first of the year to clean the energy within your home.

3 Confirming Synchronicities#1. My friend Carrie and I were tuning in to ask how we can have more magic in our lives. We heard from the spirit to simply ask to raise our vibration and set an intention to do that. Do this daily like a ritual.

Just as I was telling this story during the taping, my cellphone started buzzing and it was Carrie calling! Talk about coincidence.

2. Since I started doing this practice every day, I had two dreams that my hair had grown really long, like down to my waist. I was so curious what this could mean and then it dawned on me – my hair grew long – GROWTH!

I looked it up in Betty Bethards’ book – The Dream Book. Dreaming about hair means power flowing from the crown. The longer the hair the more power! Wahoo!

3. I picked one card from the Goddess deck and I was blown away with what I chose, Abundantia! She is a Roman Goddess of prosperity, success, and preservation of wealth and I have been working with her since the middle of October.

Amazingly, Abundantia keeps showing up all over the place in my life. The synchronicities and coincidences with her just keep rolling in and I’m so excited about this.

I asked my husband to buy me an ancient Roman coin for Christmas, because she’s on the back of many of them! Abundantia has come into my life in so many ways, it’s really astonishing and I am loving it.

Here’s one more fabulous synchronicity for all of us: the year 2024 adds up to the number eight and in numerology, that is all about abundance! Next year is sure to be a good one filled with so much of what you want!

We’d love to hear your stories about synchronicities! Contact me here or Marla on her site and maybe we’ll share them in a future episode. Thanks!

Happy New Year to all my listeners. May you enjoy as many blessings as you can see stars in deep blue night sky.

Discover Winter Solstice Manifestation – the most powerful day of the year to manifest your dreams. Let me tell you how this all got started.

This is the time of year when Christmas letters come rolling in. They make me realize that everyone’s goals and accomplishments are different.

I usually don’t write a holiday letter but if I did, here are some highlights I’d share with you from 2023.

2023 Highlights* I’m in the top 5% globally for podcasts * Put the garbage out 52 times – yay! * Went on a trip to Cape Cod with my husband and came back with Covid * Washed and folded 102 loads of laundry * Read 29 books * Watched the sunrise at the beach with my good friend and went to breakfast * Discovered the Sunflower Pose, bringing me joy * Learned a new healing technique that has helped a number of clients

Hmmm, not quite the same as my friend’s list is it?

But what I realized was everyone doesn’t have the same kind of goals. My goals reflect the way I live and how I count on my intuition to lead the way.

Magical MomentsWhen it comes down to it, I find that my most memorable moments of the year are the magical ones like:

  • Noticed a lot of synchronicities
  • Received messages from my basil and zinnias plants
  • The moths in my garden came to visit me and did a little dance on my arm
  • Took a Celtic shamanism workshop where I met Merlin, who told me that I was on a journey with no set destination, map, or guide
  • Learning to accept what is, and in turn am finding more joy in every day!

These magical moments extend out to my amazing community, which includes you! I’ve been able to help people gain insight into their life to help them find their path, to make good decisions, and to confirm their gut instincts on situations that crop up.

Worshipping Aphrodite How did she decide to focus on Aphrodite, the Greek Goddess and equivalent to the Roman Venus? This began when she was a teenager and the Goddess of Love had great appeal. She was very relatable, since she had flaws like jealousy which made her seem more human.

Venus’s mother had been a Wiccan follower and brought her up with that as her spiritual foundation. Even though her mom started out Irish Catholic, she came to this mystical path after graduating from high school.

Becoming a Professional Tarot ReaderThen I asked how she started doing Tarot readings as her work. In college, Venus studied theatre, performing arts and speech therapy. Somehow she became an administrative assistant at a laboratory. But all along, on the side she was doing readings for people. Then suddenly, she was let go from her job.

Venus didn’t know where to turn, so her first thought was to reach out to a friend who read Tarot in a shop in Salem, MA. She asked if they needed any readers. Lo and behold, they did!

Trekking up to Salem to the shop called Enchanted, she was greeted by a giant statue of Aphrodite as she walked in. That bit of synchronicity let her know immediately she was in the right place! What a clear and poignant sign.

Years later, Venus still works at the sister shop today called Stardust. She said it was fate-entwined and I couldn’t agree more! How lucky that she didn’t have to flounder or wonder at all – her next career simply fell into place.

Magic Is Like PrayerI asked what her magic is like and how she helps her clients. Venus thinks that many people still view magic and Wicca like something out of Hollywood. But the fundamental truth is magic is like prayer with actifiers.

What’s an actifier? Crystals, incense, and words (or even rosary beads). It is just words like prayers. When Venus talks about spell work, she says the words you use have to have equal importance to the intention you put into the spell.

Here’s an analogy to help you understand. Let’s say you have a souped up car, but if you don’t know how to drive, the car is useless. Or visa versa, if you’re a great driver but your vehicle is falling apart, you’re not going to get any where.

Want to heal your heart before you look for love? Listen to this!

The Love SpellWhen it comes to love spells, the Love Doll Spell is the one Venus shares with clients. You have two dolls that are kept separate within your home at first. Every day for a week, you move the dolls closer to each other.

On the last day you put them together into an envelope, wrap them together and seal the envelope. This works to bring the romantic partner you seek toward you.

The spell also works like a daily reminder that someone is coming to you. It puts you in the driver’s seat because you are the one bringing the doll closer to you. This gives the person who wants the romance a feeling of power.

Important note: Venus only does this kind of spell work to attract the right person, not a specific person. She insists there must be autonomy or consent or she won’t be a party to it. Without this, it wouldn’t be a love spell – it would be a manipulation of some form.

I love this idea! It’s so magical and has a strong physicality that offers powerful energy. A very creative and clever method to call in your match. It’s like the Law of Attraction, pulling in what you want to you by becoming an energetic match to it.

Many Types of LoveNext, I wanted to know how she came to give such good relationship advice. Venus admitted it wasn’t through her family and we laughed. Growing up, she had more misses than hits, but she did learn as she went along.

Venus ended up in a good relationship with her husband by thinking about what kind of love she wanted. She preferred to sidestep the idea of “I’ll know it when I feel it” and sought a more concrete way to find her match. Venus decided to think of the different kinds of love to better define what she wanted in a partner.

There’s familial love for family. Platonic love for friends. Physical love for celebrities or people she might meet at a bar. (I call that sexual attraction.) And romantic! This is how she came to define love for herself and what would work for her in a mate.

Of all those loves, what did she want? More than romantic love seemed appropriate. Maybe a bit of platonic love, and a dose of familial love so he feels like family. Add a dash of physical love like seeing a stranger at a club.

I was fascinated by this process and thought it was amazing. Back in my dating coach life, I had my clients make a list of what they wanted. But Venus’ method was a stroke of genius.

Listen to more on the Tarot here.

Exploring Aspects of LoveWhen Venus was younger, she read a book called The Ethical Slut which was about different kinds of love. This included open relationships and polyamory which appealed to her when she was young.

She says it’s a good read even if you’re monogamous, explaining how to find safety and identity. It teaches you how to release the aspect of control which limits how you go about relationships.

When you allow others to be who they are, it takes the pressure off yourself as well. Then you can be more focused on living your life, authentically and ethically. Ultimately, Venus says being in a good relationship involves open communication and addressing things right away as they come up.

Venus had some other gems to share about the difference between Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers in relationships, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to enjoy the rest.

She talked about three exciting workshops coming up in February 2024 at the shop where she works. Check the website for details when posted in January. Workshops at Stardust

Ready for some manifestation magic? My guest on this week’s Breathe Love & Magic podcast is all about creating wish postcards and sending them to the Universe. Meet Melisa Caprio!

What Got Melisa Started with Postcards?I started the conversation with Melisa by talking about art journaling, one of my latest passions and creative outlets. Melissa is a photographer who enjoys taking pictures of hand written letters with props that match the content.

Melisa has a fine art background and was working at a job taking photographs of special needs children doing therapy with dolphins. That sounds amazing. Living in the Florida Keys, things were good.

Then, three big things happened all at once. Her job ended, her marriage fell apart, and she was moving. This was a difficult time which caused her to start questioning everything – why is this happening to me?

The Law of AttractionShe ended up reading a lot and ran into the idea of the Law of Attraction. How to manifest your dreams was great reading. She realized her energy had attracted these endings into her life.

While the bad news was that she’s responsible for everything in her life, the good news is she’s also responsible for manifesting the things she wants!

Knowing that she couldn’t go back to commercial photography because it didn’t call to her anymore, she was looking for new horizons.

Melisa went back to fine art and taking pictures of beautifully handwritten cards and letters. While falling asleep one night, she heard these words in her head, “Postcards to the Universe.” She knew it was important and followed up by buying the domain name.

Easy Manifestation MagicThe name sat for a full year untouched. Then, she started meeting people who helped her get things going. She met a copywriter who helped with writing the website and designer to create the site, so Melisa was on her way.

Next, the idea came to start connecting with other people who enjoy manifesting and creating vision boards. That led her to work on a book, which features people’s mini-vision boards and their stories of manifesting.

Today, people send her postcards and she chooses the ones to photograph and tells the person’s story on her radio show and podcast. The best part is when her clients write later, letting her know their desire came true!

Melisa works all the time on avoiding the rabbit hole of complaining about how things aren’t working. She tries not to live there or talk about it all day because that would be focusing on what she doesn’t want!

With manifesting, you want to be intentional about what you create.

Click here if you’re curious about my Manifesting Group.

Postcards DepositoryHundreds of people have sent postcards with their manifesting desires and she files them away with honor in special notebooks. I thought this sounded like she’s the Akashic Records Library for manifestation postcards and we laughed. Isn’t that magical?

Magic is actually Melisa’s favorite word and she does a magical message every Monday. Once you become conscious about the Law of Attraction, things start to show up in your life magically. She recommends beginning with asking to manifest something small that you aren’t attached to.

She told this great story about how she manifested a pink feather and why this was fun because she wasn’t attached to it. The pink feather appearing reinforced that she is a powerful manifestor.

However, it’s not like manifesting $100,000. Build your skill by first starting slow on something super easy to build success. Then, you can tackle the big desires.

Learn about manifesting $10,000!

Amazing Manifesting StoriesNext, I asked Melisa for some client example. She talked about Mole Mama who is a chef who cooks Mexican food. She had nothing when she created her first podcast. Now she has two books, a YouTube channel, and is a contestant on Guy’s Grocery Games show (that’s Guy Fieri from Diners, Drive-ins and Dives as well).

She has many clients who hope to release or let go of something by creating and sending a postcard. Let go of guilt, anger, heartache, etc.

One woman had been heartbroken by a guy and she wanted to let it go after years. She didn’t care about ever getting an apology. The woman sent the postcard and felt tremendously relieved.

The very same day she mailed the postcard, out of the blue, the fellow reached out to apologize. She was shocked, but really glad she had let go, never expecting him to contact her again. find out how to send Melisa your postcard on her website.

Creating Joy in His HeartOne last story that was a big one! A man created a postcard asking to feel joy in his heart. She knew him through a friend. Sometime later, she heard he’d had a heart attack but survived. This episode totally changed his life.

The guy had quit his job as a defense attorney because he never wanted to do that work. His father and grandfather had been attorneys and he followed in their footsteps even though he hated it.

So, he sold his house and fancy car, moved to an apartment, and started working with kids in a low income school. He mentors young boys and feels so much joy in his heart now. Isn’t that awesome?

There’s so much more when you hear the podcast, so listen today and start your manifestation magic!

BIO – Melisa CaprioMelisa Caprio, creator, photographer, radio host and author of Postcards to the Universe, Harness the Universe’s Power and Manifest your Dreams, is inviting people from around the world to participate in a global movement. By using photography, art, personal wishes and desires and sending them out to the Universe via a postcard. She is currently giving workshops on photography, art, transformation, and manifestation. She guides her clients on how to create a unique postcard for added effect on the power of creative intention.

Caprio has her own weekly show titled Postcards to the Universe with Melisa, Creating the Life you Crave on OMTimes Radio where she interviews spiritual trailblazers, she has turned that show into a popular podcast.

Are you talking with the angels? Do you believe in them? So many people call on the archangels for help. In this episode you’ll learn about a bunch of angels, their specialties, and how to work with them.

My Start with AngelsI remember being interested in angels back in my 20s. I was always curious about them and love them in vintage art. I found several photos of cupids holding a bow and arrow in small frames from the 1940s at flea markets and antique shops. They’re hanging up in my kitchen.

At 21, I bought these antique gold metal lamps at a flea market with an angel holding a flower. The angels stand on the lamp base and hold a large flower stem with a glass lampshade shaped like a rose. In the center like the flower’s pistil, is the pointy small bulb. So sweet!

These decorative lamps are from the art nouveau period which spanned 1890-1914 and features organic subject matter like plants with stems, leaves, and flowers that twist around each other.

My mom tried to convince me not to buy them, saying my taste would change over time, but it hasn’t yet! They are in my living room today.

I also have angel heads over the doorways or figurines sitting on shelves and tabletops. People started giving them to me as gifts, so they added up. But it’s nice to have them watching over me throughout my home.

AngelSpeake with Trudy GriswoldIn the early 1990s, Trudy Griswold wrote a book with her sister Barbara Mark about talking angels. Angelspeake opened many up to the idea of communicating with angels and the sisters taught workshops on how to do this.

The book took off and was a bestseller back when there were no tricks to get that status on Amazon because it didn’t exist until 1995.

Trudy is from CT, which is where I live, and I met her back then through a friend. I invited her to speak to a meditation group of about 75 women. She did a great presentation and they were captivated by this idea of asking for and receiving help from the angelic realm. Who wouldn’t feel good about this?

My Angel EncounterI can’t say I have had any direct contact myself except maybe one time when I was getting a Reiki session in a spa. While I was on the table with my eyes closed and the practitioner was working on me, I got the sense of a very large being hanging above the table.

It seemed to be about 8 feet tall – not totally sure because I wasn’t there with my yardstick. But it was a large male presence with a strong stance. It didn’t have much detail or color, so I’m not sure who it might have been. But people who have encountered Archangel Michael do say he has a large presence.

So, I’m thinking this was my encounter with an angel.

Angel Wealth MagicAnyway, since the 90s, I’ve done a lot of studying and had many new experiences, so over time I distracted from angels. Until earlier this year, when my friend Marla interviewed this woman on her podcast about her book Angel Wealth Magic.

Ok, that’s angels, magic, and wealth all in one title and I’m hooked! I love what the author, Corin Grillo said during her interview. I cracked the book open and dove in to learn about the angels she recommends working with for the purpose of creating wealth.

Her list includes 12 archangels and 27 little known angels – certainly I have never ever heard of any of them. They have strange names that aren’t so easy to pronounce, but Corin provides phonetic spelling so you will know how to properly say them.

After all, when you call on the angel, you want the angel to know you’re calling them, right? Grillo explains each angel’s specialty, so you can zero in on who you want to work with.

Doreen Virtue’s book Archangels and Ascended Masters list 15 archangels. Maybe Corin weeded a few out who had nothing to offer those seeking wealth.

I immediately reconnected with the idea of working with angels. What I’m going to do in this episode is talk to you about the archangels, the next level angels, what they do and one method to get their help.

You can also look up other ways to communicate with the angels or fly by the seat of your pants and do it your way. Whatever makes you happy – go for it.

Ask for HelpHere’s something super important about working with angels. They cannot intercede on your behalf on their own. You need to ask for their help. If you want assistance from the angelic realm, be sure to request it!

Who couldn’t benefit from a little behind the scenes help? If that’s the only thing you get out of this podcast – then that’s fine with me. Just remember – you need to ask the angels for their help.

An Abundance of AngelsNow I’ll introduce you to 12 the archangels and some other favorites.

Top 4 Archangels

Gabriel – Known as the messenger, is good for communication and parenting

Michael – Offers protection and clears negative emotions and fear-based thoughts

Ready to step beyond gratitude this Thanksgiving? Learn how to practice kindness with yourself first before being kind to others. When your internal dialog is kind, that’s when your world will open up and flow with goodness.

Move Over Gratitude!Everyone knows the Thanksgiving holiday is about gratitude. Gratitude is a practice that will always uplift your spirit and raise your vibration. So often, we ignore what is good and working well in life because we focus on what we want or what’s not working. That’s just part of being human.

But today, I want to talk about another practice that will also lift your spirits. Kindness. That’s right kindness. What do I mean? The act of being kind to yourself or another person.

Hear more about gratitude.

First, I would ask, how often are you kind to yourself? My bet is not all that often. You might buy yourself something, eat something yummy like chocolate, or have a glass of wine. But it’s time to think bigger with your acts of kindness and self-love.

The biggest act of kindness you can offer yourself is noticing and shifting your own internal chatter. Pay attention to how you speak to yourself. Observe the unusually harsh and nasty things you say to yourself that you would never say to anyone else or dare to utter aloud.

Why do you do that to yourself? Why do I?

If you want to spread love, peace, and experience more joy, start by being kind to yourself.

We Are Harder on OurselvesWe are harder on ourselves than anyone else on the face of the planet. Why is that the natural order? Let’s look at an example of how this normally goes.

Let’s say you forgot to cook a package of chicken and now it’s expired. The internal conversation might sound like this:

“Now you’ve wasted $10, not to mention the food. What an idiot? How could you be so wasteful and foolish? You never do anything right. What a loser.”

That’s how the train of thought might go. You start with a small mistake and rocket into speaking to yourself like you are worthless piece of trash in 30 seconds or less.

Beating Yourself UpWhat is the truth of these horrible thoughts? Are these comments about yourself accurate? Of course not!

Yes, you forgot to cook the chicken. (This is a real-life example from someone close to me LOL). Does that make you or me a loser? No way!

It sure does make us human. Humans make mistakes. Too bad we then are meaner to ourselves than to almost anyone else. Here’s an insight – when you encounter a hyper-critical person, that’s a sign they are mega critical of themselves.

How does this improve your life or help you? It doesn’t.

Kindness Enhances Your Health & MindsetThat’s why I’m recommending the practice of kindness with the focus on YOU.

According to the world renown Mayo Clinic, kindness is “a quality of being you can cultivate…” that is “simple, free and health enhancing.”

Being kind to yourself or others actually raises your self-esteem. It also builds empathy and compassion and is a known mood elevator.

Being kind can reduce your blood pressure and cortisol, the stress hormone. People who are kind tend to live longer because they move through life with a greater sense of connectivity and balance.

Now, this part I find totally amazing.

When you are kind to yourself or others, this boosts serotonin and dopamine levels which are neurotransmitters that produce feelings of satisfaction and well-being. I need more of feeling satisfied, what about you?

This leads to lighting up the pleasure and reward centers of your brain. Yes! That makes kindness practices very worthwhile and 100% productive in my mind.

It’s Harder to Be Nice to YourselfI am first focusing on being kind to yourself because for whatever reason, that is often harder. You might be prone to giving and extending yourself to others regularly. But how do you treat yourself?

Do you put off getting a massage or other self-care activities because you are too busy taking care of your family or other important people in your life? Do you leave yourself with crumbs or even less than that? This is something women in particular are famous for.

So, in this week of Thanksgiving where everyone tells you to focus on gratitude, I’m suggesting that kindness is even better.

It’s a step higher with greater rewards. Just for today, if that’s all you can manage, be aware of your inner dialog. When you catch that internal berating and cruel conversation – STOP.

Notice what you are doing and shift into kindness. So what if you didn’t cook the chicken, pay the bill on time, or said something in anger?

You likely did the best you could in the moment and you can work on improving anything. This is especially true about being kind to yourself when you make a mistake.

Imagine a World with More KindnessImagine what the world would be like if we could simply be kind to ourselves? The world would be a happier place in which people would experience lower blood pressure and stress levels. That could actually lead to a greater degree of peace in the world.

Maybe there would even be less aggressive behavior and anger towards others as people feel better about themselves and their own lives. (Think road rage and picture that melting away.)

We might take better care of the planet and reverse some of the damage to Mother Earth. There might be more tree-planting and less harmful strip-mining. We might treat the water supply with the true reverence it deserves.

When you are kind to yourself and make this a natural part of your life and way of being, it will be easier to offer kindness to others. Your internal kindness will actually ripple out into the world and impact everyone you come in contact with.

Kindness MeditationIf you are not driving or operating equipment, close your eyes. Start with a few deep slow breaths. Fill your lungs and abdomen and then exhale slowly and a bit more than you inhaled. This helps you achieve that relaxed state more quickly.

Now, in this moment, say one kind thing to yourself internally. Breathe in love and kindness through the front of your heart chakra and breathe out anything that weighs you down out the back of your heart to be transformed into kindness.

As you continue breathing in this way, a wave of kindness ripples out beyond your own aura. With each new breath, the wave starts to expand more rapidly.

Waves of KindnessYour waves of kindness, seek out and connect with other people’s waves of kindness building momentum. Kindness becomes a strong force that spreads out past your own home and town, to the state you live in and the section of the country. It expands to fill the entire country and then your hemisphere of the planet.

Then, this wave of kindness wraps around the entire planet like a comforting blanket. Mother Earth breathes a deep sigh of relief. Angels are drawn in, adding to this kindness wave, giving it even more strength and etheric prowess.

People around the world feel suddenly more relaxed without even knowing why. The tension seems to subside and everyone breathes more easily.

All empaths stop feeling that awful sense of foreboding. In fact, they notice that negative emotion is somehow magically replaced with the strongest sense of joy and happiness they’ve felt in a very long time.

Just stay here a moment and feel how amazing that ripple really is. A tremendous wave of kindness that is an empowering force for good.

Now, bring yourself back to your country, state and city. Back to the place where you are meditating. Back into your body fully. Take a deep breath. Wiggle your fingers and toes. Then open your eyes, coming fully back into your body. Fully awake now.

How was that?

Kindness Is So PowerfulYour kindness to yourself and others is so much more powerful than you can begin to imagine. And it all starts with you right here, right now in this very moment.

I hope you will take this in and start a practice of kindness. First be kind to yourself, and then find tiny, small ways to share kindness with others. Often the little things matter much more than the big ones.

10 Ways to Be Kind to Yourself1. Tell yourself that today you feel lucky 2. Forgive yourself for a small mistake or a big one 3. When you catch yourself being internally mean, remind yourself that you can also be kind 4. Acknowledge yourself for a quality you like about yourself 5. Acknowledge yourself for doing a good job on something 6. Look in the mirror and blow yourself a kiss 7. Cross your arms in front of you, put each hand on the opposite shoulder and send your body some love 8. Thank your body for the hard work it does to keep you vibrant and alive 9. Remind yourself that you are magical 10. Say this affirmation – I am worthy of the same kindness I offer others

10 Ways to Show Kindness to Others1. Say hello to the staff person checking you out at the store 2. Smile at someone with 2 seconds of eye contact before turning away 3. Tell a woman she looks pretty today or that you like something she’s wearing 4. Compliment a man about his watch or tie 5. Thank people you interact with who are serving you in some way 6. Let someone into your lane when traffic is busy 7. Buy a coffee for the person behind you in line 8. Check in on a neighbor, single person, or elderly person you know 9. Add someone new to your holiday card list 10. Send silent blessings to people you pass on the street

That’s it for today. I sure hope you have a great Thanksgiving holiday here in the U.S. Wishing you love and magic. May you be blessed with good fortune that keeps on giving.

Curious about the Faerie Realm? My guest reveals her real-life stories of the Fae, opening the Fae Portal and connecting with your heart and mind.

Fae Folk in AmericaContrary to popular belief, the Fae Folk can be seen across the globe. Even here in America, you might encounter faeries and elementals while taking a walk in the woods or in any wild place in nature. I’ve seen them in my own backyard!

My guest this week, Barb Gallagher, visits a special wooded area with a babbling brook that was once part of amusement park that is like an open door to the Faerie Realm. She thinks the residual joyful energy from that park of the past attracts all sorts of Fae Folk to the spot.

Who Are the Sidhe?I asked Barb about all the kinds of faerie folk she’s seen which are quite a few. First, we talked about the Sidhe, which are descendants of Tuatha de Danann who were children of the Goddess Danu. This is from Celtic mythology.

Other common names for the Sidhe are the Shining Ones and the Good People. They are Fae royalty, tall with long blonde hair in earth colored clothing. Think of Orlando Bloom in Lord of the Rings – so handsome with those pointed ears!

Then she revealed that she has a Sidhe guide, a male who she has spent many lifetimes with. Today, he encourages her when it comes to learning about the faerie realm and offers guidance about communicating.

Sepia-Toned CreaturesOne time she was walking in the woods and had just put down an organic apple as an offering, when she was suddenly surrounded by hundreds of sepia-toned beings about 2.5 – 3 feet tall. Barb freaked and ran out of the woods.

She explained how this was a great honor, but she never expected to see so many at once and felt unsafe alone in the woods. It was frightening and she shut down.

Later, she went again and just one of the gnome-like creatures came forward. Barb apologized for running off and expressed her fear. He told her that she’s never alone in the woods and pointed to her Sidhe guide.

Brian Froud has captured what many of the faeries look like, but he focused on the not so pretty type.

This reminds me of my own experience when I told Pan, king of the elemental world, that I was ready to see them. Suddenly hundreds of unattractive beings stepped forward through the tall grasses at the edge of my property which shocked me completely.

Sending them away, saying I wasn’t ready, I felt shame and terribly sorry. I didn’t mean to be insulting but I should have asked to see a few at first to get used to them.

Tree Spirits, Sylphs, & UndinesNext, we talked about dryads which are tree spirits. Every tree has its own dryad and they facilitate communication between trees. I once stood on a massive stump and discovered how vibrant it still was, even after being chopped down! My husband felt this too although he’s not into the woo.

Trees, even when chopped down, broken, or rotting, still communicate with and nourish other trees.

Stone beings have spoken to Barb in those same woods. When you see a tree with roots that seem to grow out of the rocks or down over them, this is a sign that faeries are in the area.

She learned this from Celtic Shaman Jane Burns and I took a class with her myself on this same topic! So, keep your eye out for that when walking in the woods if you’re looking for the faerie realm.

How do the elementals differ from the fae? The elementals are about the earth, so beings like sylph which are air beings and undines which are water beings.

The sylph help the dandelion seeds spread through the air. And I’ve seen the undines at the Westport, CT library which sits near the river. They jumped, flipped, and splash like dolphins. Barb thinks of the faerie realm as including both the Sidhe, little faeries with the wings like pixies, and the elementals.

A bit more Celtic lore, the Sidhe had a battle eons ago with the Malaysians living in what is now Ireland and they lost. So, they agreed to live underground in the other world. Sidhe actually means from the mound.

Why Talk to the Faerie Realm?This is all a lot of fun, but I asked Barb what she gets out of communicating with the Fae or what she learns. Barb says her heart gets full and sometimes she hears beautiful messages.

One time she had hurt her back and she heard intuitively to go outside and lay of the grass in front of her garden. She laid down on her back in the sun and a blue being swam through the ground taking stuff out of her back and when it was done, she got up and her back felt good again.

She’s also been guided to make flower essences for other people and she follows the advice. Later, looking up what she made, Barb discovered it was perfect for the emotional healing a neighbor needed.

Going back to how her heart gets full, I asked what that was about. She said she felt a part of her that was missing was returned. I suggested that she might have felt connected to everything. It’s only through our human lens that we feel separated, but that is not true.

Opening a Fae PortalWhat about Fae Portals? Barb took a class with a woman who taught about the Faerie Realm. She received an email saying that the Fae requested portals be opened on a certain day in the United States, so they could interact more easily with people. The Fae wanted to start bridging the gap.

One day she was at a friend’s cabin in the woods with her husband, and she followed the instructions to open a Fae Portal. Fast forward a year, she and her husband were walking through the woods near the cabin again.

Suddenly, husband stopped and pointed out a strange occurrence. Leaves were floating 3 feet above ground moving in a circular pattern that was parallel to the earth! This was a bit shocking to him since he wasn’t familiar with faerie magic.

Then Barb recognized where she was and remembered she had opened the Fae Portal a year earlier. This was their faeries’ way of letting her know her efforts had worked and they appreciated what she did on their behalf! Amazing.

Yet, when she went to Ireland, hoping to meetup with the Fae there, she was instructed not to even try it. The human- Fae relationship there is more contentious. Over time, humans started blaming the Fae for things that happened. For example, if a cow died or the milk was sour, they accused the faeries.

How to See the FaeStart by connecting with nature. Set the intention to see and talk to the Faeries. Come from an honest place in your heart with love. And do your best to trust what happens.

You might see them first or hear them – everyone is different and this is dependent on how your own intuition works.

For me, I read a lot about the faeries and elementals. I read several books about the Findhorn Garden in Scotland – they grew amazing vegetables with the help of the elementals, plant devas and more.

In addition I read several Tanis Helliwell’s book My Summer with the Leprechauns and The Elves of Lily Hill Farm among many others.

I hope Barb and I inspired you to go outside and commune with nature and the faeries because they’re real!

Manifestation Coach, Danielle Marggraf, shocked me when she suggested that you should use your body not your brain to attract what you want in life! I never knew that, did you?

Becoming a Master ManifestorI asked Danielle how she got started doing this work as a wealth manifestation coach. She explained how hard things were when she first got divorced with two children under the age of 2. She ended up on food stamps three times, had her car repossessed four times, and was homeless once too!

According to Danielle, this was her way (from a higher level) of seriously testing her manifesting abilities! She had been manifesting in the wrong direction. What does that mean?

This is about the Law of Polarity and how manifesting has a spectrum. At one end is poverty and at the other end of the spectrum is wealth and prosperity.

Danielle explained how she consistently manifested poverty being stuck in that energy and not firmly believing she could get out. The bottom line here is choosing what to focus on. You can think about what’s not working and how you don’t have enough money or tap into the flow of abundance.

Your Focus Is What You CreateAlmost everyone has experienced some form of financial trauma and this causes people to feel fear and worry doubt and uncertainty with tons of evidence for that. So it’s not a habit to hold prosperity consciousness and it’s a challenge to build this.

I just released a podcast snack about this very idea. To focus on what you do want vs. what you don’t want related to the news. If you’re overwhelmed by the state of the world, stop watching the news on TV. Instead, focus on something you DO want (vs. war and bad news) and take steps to get that.

Stop Sacrificing Your LifeNo amount of money is worth sacrificing your life for. This is what Manifestation Coach Danielle came to realize on her way to becoming a manifestation coach. She said this requires moving from self-abandonment to self-loyalty. You want to stop prostituting your values, beliefs, and ideas for transactional ends – such as money.

This can be frustrating! Danielle spent a lot of time praying for guidance and help. She knew something had to change and so she moved into total surrender.

She worked to become a master of her mind and realized she needed to come home to her spirit. You are spirit in human form – learn how to be your mission with such conviction and passion that there is nothing else to do. Stop trading your precious life for survival and money.

The Prosperous Goddess UnRetreatEvery year Danielle hosts this fabulous event. This year, the group invoked Lakshmi, the powerful Hindu Goddess of wealth, fortune and prosperity.

Working with the Goddess requires the full acceptance of who you are – all of your parts and this is also true of her somatic work as a manifestation coach.

Another way of looking at this is it’s about devotion and the sacredness of your life. It’s time to live your life in ritual and practices that create more prosperity.

Also, you want to be more embodied and expressed in alignment with what you want to attract and why you are here on earth.

Somatic CoachDanielle says there is an inner world and her practice is to go in to rewire and repair the connections of the body to your emotions, energies, memories, and more.

The mind lives in the body and your nervous system is the command center. Since your body holds on to your fears, you end up not being wired for success but for survival.

In somatic work and as a manifestation coach, Danielle works with the subconscious in this body-based approach, to create more alignment and wiring for what you want.

As you do this work, you create alignment and more space which allows more movement and that promotes healing!

Turning Things AroundI asked Danielle what was a defining moment on what happened that kept her from having a 5th car repossession. How did she finally turn things around?

Danielle responded quickly that she made a decision and she says it’s a psychological process. Before the decision, you ask things like:

  • Is this going to work?
  • Can I do this?
  • Am I in or out?

But once you make the decision, you close all exit doors and look for solutions. You decide where you’re going and nothing will stop you from getting there.

You are open to learning all the lessons required and to seeing solutions that come your way. She would no longer tolerate the same and unworthiness that came in the form of poverty. The decision was, “This is it – it stops with me.”

What’s the most important thing to share with the listeners to help them begin the transformation?

Make a DecisionPeople say they want things, but they don’t stick to it. They stay stuck in the pre-decision of will this work for me and can I do it? But you have to come from true conviction!

“Your self-image is your inner success mechanism.”

If you don’t see yourself clearly moving forward, going for it, knowing it will work, then you have not made the decision. Then you cannot live from the conviction of that decision, of who you are, and who you serve, etc.

You are not fully living this or stepping into fully embodying this new version of yourself.

Step Into Authentic PowerAs a somatic coach, Danielle works with women who have disowned their power, identity, and voice in exchange for safety. They are ready to reclaim that through tapping into their soul-led, mission-based work.

It goes deeper than reclaiming your power. You need to know who are you, what is your identity, and what is your mission on this planet. You need discipline and practicality around that to stick with your decision even when it’s hard.

You have to stop living from the neck up and need to create and manifest from the neck down.

The women she works with as a manifestation coach need a bottom up approach because simply affirming doesn’t work for them. That’s only in the neck up. This needs to be actualized in the body or it doesn’t stick.

That’s why you are working with the subconscious mind. The inner work is far more important than your marketing methods. Strategies and tactics don’t matter if you aren’t in alignment – then it nothing will work or it won’t be sustainable.

Everyone’s process is unique due to their history and trauma, so the somatic work requires a personal approach. For example, if you had a million dollar business, maybe you’d wake up, do yoga, drink green juice and get a driver to take your kids to school.

Act As IfNow you know what to do – act as if… But this still goes deeper. Most people can’t sustain this discipline. They didn’t see the money come fast enough and then don’t keep it up.

As a result, if you feel tired, you let yourself off the hook about yoga or skip drinking the green juice. Then you’re no longer embodying the qualities of a million dollar business owner. Instead, you have a gap and disconnect from that version of yourself, so you end up out of alignment.

Stuck in a thought loop that makes you unhappy? It’s time to focus on what you DO want, vs. allowing your brain to dive into negativity.

I’ve been giving that advice out lately to friends, family and clients. This stems from the Law of Attraction which states “Like attracts like”.

What that means is if you keep thinking about what you don’t want and feeling badly about it, unfortunately, you could get more of the same!

Here’s a tenant from Hawaiian Shamanism: “Energy flows where attention goes” It sure does. That’s why you want to catch yourself in that negative and unproductive thought loop and shift your thinking to what you DO WANT!

Makes sense doesn’t it? Not so easy but it can become a new habit when you set that intention. Plus, it offers not only relief but also helps you create what you DO WANT! That’s a much better way to go, right?

So, that got me thinking. Does this message apply to my life? It sure does and this links back to my last podcast snack about How to recover from a big fight fast. Turns out, I’m not totally over it – LOL. Although I’m so much better now.

Listen to this very short podcast snack and find out what it’s all about and how you can apply this helpful method to your life as well. You know, in case you do any unwanted, repetitive thinking…

In this episode of the Skeptic Metaphysician podcast, Will and Karen (the skeptics) ask me about Akashic Records Readings.

What Are the Akashic Records?The first question and a great place to start was what are the Akashic Records? Many religions talk about a Book of Life and some actually talk about past lives like Buddhism, Jainism, and Judaism (according to Kabbalah).

There is a record in your book of everything you’ve done in this life and all your past lives. If you believe in reincarnation, then you know you come to earth to learn lessons and work through karma to lift your spirit, grow aspects of your soul and raise your vibration.

The Akashic Records track everything you’ve done with all the details. However, when I go into the Records, I’m looking for the big picture to help you solve a problem, find a solution, or better understand a situation.

Will asked if it’s like the Harry Potter library that goes on forever and my answer was, “Yes!” Some call it a temple, others call it a library. This is where the information comes from for Akashic Records readings.

How to Access the Akashic RecordsHis next question is how do I access the records and should he be worried about it? We had a good laugh. The way I do this is the same way I open my mind to intuition and mediumship. I tune in and ask a question for my client.

Someone might want to know why she had a tough relationship with her brother or other family member. Having a specific question helps me have something to focus on because my personal reason for doing this is to find solutions wherever I can. I’m looking for past lives reasons why something is happening now.

So, I’ll look for where a problem started, how it happened, what’s been the situation in previous lives, and how you might resolve the issue today. Will said I was like a cosmic problem solver – that sounded good to me!

Akashic Records Reading ExampleWill wanted an example of how Akashic Records readings work. I told him about a young Japanese woman who came to me at a psychic fair years ago. ( I don’t work at fairs now.) This woman was curious about her most recent incarnation before this life. In accessing her information, I saw she was an American sailor who died in the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Next she asked why she was afraid of loud noises and fireworks and why she had a fear of drowning. You can see how these phobias came from her untimely, watery death in her past life.

In this case, I was shocked by the bravery of her soul to come back as a Japanese woman – the people responsible for her death in that earlier life. Isn’t that amazing?

Choosing Life LessonsKaren asked if I believe we choose who we come back as. As I understand the process, we make agreements to learn specific things and advance as best we can, but not on the earthly, conscious level.

Will wanted to know exactly how I get the information for my readings. Sometimes I get a visual impression in my mind’s eye, almost like a little movie. Other times I hear the information and then on occasion, I suddenly know or feel what I need to pass along.

Over the years what I’ve learned is that if I push and look too hard for the information, I won’t get as much. Instead, what works best is to relax and allow the information to flow to me. Then I get more details and what is needed and well-received.

Another good question, Will asked how do I know what I’m getting or what to look for. I explained I need to turn my radar on. It’s intentional rather than coming to me unrequested all day or night. Thank goodness!

The next question was what set me on this path for reading the Akashic Records. When I was 12, I was in ancient history class and worked on a group project to create a pyramid like the ones found in Egypt. My friends and I made all the hieroglyphics with colored pencils on cardboard and just loved the whole thing. I’ve always been a fan of ancient history.

Books and AuthorsAs time moved on I ran into a book called The Search for Bridey Murphy published way back in 1959. (Before my time LOL). This was the story of a Colorado house wife, Virginia Tighe Morrow, who through hypnosis sessions had a past life memory of being Bridey Murphy from Ireland in the 1800s. I was hooked on this idea!

Then in the 1980s and 1990s, I read other books by Shirley MacLaine, Roger Woolger, PhD., and Dr. Brian Weiss. The big jump came in 1990, I took a weekly, year-long past life class. So, that was a whole year practicing this skill I still use today.

Love & Akashic Records ReadingsNext, Karen asked how I use this with single women who want to find love? I explained that I had been a dating coach for 20+ years, but sometimes when nothing seemed to be working, I would tune into a client’s past lives to see if anything there was creating a block.

As an example, one woman was engaged at 20 in her current life, but she couldn’t go through with it and broke it off. As she got older and into her 40s, she felt plagued by regrets that she could have been married and shouldn’t have ended the relationship.

I went to look at her past to see why this was a factor. It turns out, her ex-fiancé had been of royal blood in the middle east centuries ago. He had a big harem which she was part of and this made her really angry. She felt trapped and wanted nothing to do with him. That same soul/man was her ex fiancé in this life!

Today, my client is a very successful, independent woman, a physician, who enjoys directing her own life. But she misses the companionship and romance that a relationship offers. However, she didn’t want to give up any independence or risk being controlled by a man. Quite a conundrum.

Soul Family or PodNext up, Will asked if key issues keep following you life after life and you’re stuck with them. My belief system is that you choose your challenges and the people you work them out with. Those people are actually from a Soul Family or Soul Pod and you make Soul Contracts with people before you incarnate.

I read this great book called Journey of Souls written by Michael Newton and it’s about hypnosis to get information from what you do between lives on earth. When you are in heaven or on another plane of existence. So interesting!

Then Will asked about my track record with Akashic Records readings and the pressure was on! I explained that everybody is different. At a psychic fair the responses varied. Some people had little reaction and just said “thank you very much.” Others said, “That’s generic.”

A third and biggest group is usually blown away over how real and right the information feels. Working with private clients today, people are always appreciative of the readings. I’m very good at honing in on what’s most important for the person to know.

Reading for a ReporterI did a past life reading for reporter of a local paper. He sat down at my table at the psychic fair (years ago!) and his wife stood behind him. He wanted to know about any past life. I tuned in and told him he was a Viking somewhere between the years of 800-1100.

He wore all the garb, furs, horns on his helmet etc. on a boat that looks Viking with the dragon heads at both ends. His wife completely cracked up and said every year he dresses as a Viking for Halloween.

There’s plenty more, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to get the rest!

And if you’re interested in a getting a past life reading, learn more here . Let’s see where you’ve been before and how that influences your life today!

In this special Halloween podcast with my guest Marla Martenson, you’ll hear how I see dead people, about her witchy visit to Salem, MA, stories of dream paralysis and visitation, and so much more! A super fun and spooky episode to celebrate the thinning of the veil.

Marla’s Salem, MA AdventuresMarla went to Salem on a sacred retreat with her Shaman, Rizz, a full body trans-channel who allows Red Eagle, a Native American spirit to speak through him. With his wife, they lead sacred trips all over the world including Japan and Ireland. But this time they went to Salem.

Rizz walked through the 10 bedroom Italian style villa in Manchester by the Sea that they rented for the group to feel the energy of the place. He chose the most haunted room for Marla!

But she talked with the spirits before going to sleep, asking them to be kind and allow her the rest she needed. Thankfully they respected her wishes!

Current Salem WitchesShe took a tour with the Mushroom Witch, pointing out local plants. Then another tour with Venus, a Witch dedicated to Love and the Goddess Venus. She always wears pink and red told a tale about sailors who would dock and go to the pubs to hear local stories and learned about the witches. That’s how Salem was dubbed the Witch City.

Marla visited where the witches were hung in Salem and the group said a few prayers over the land. At this point the Massachusetts government has exonerated all the witches from the 1600s that were killed.

There’s also a story how one of the two young girls who started this whole witch hunt by accusing women, went to the court after to admit they made it up! Now there’s some tough karma to work through.

Why Is Salem Witch Rich?The reason Salem has so many witches is that they filmed an episode of the TV show Bewitched there. There’s a huge, life-size bronze statue on the green of Samantha Stevens the show’s main character. When I was in Salem with my husband a few years ago, I got my picture taken with it!

Then in the 1970s, Laurie Cabot, one of the most famous US witches, had called the fire department to have them help her get her cat out of a tree. They wouldn’t come.

But Laurie needed help, so she called again saying she was a witch and her familiar was stuck in a tree. That made the fire department curious and come running.

The news reporting of this story gave witches everywhere the inspiration to let people know who they are. And over time, many gravitated to Salem, MA. What a great story!

Marla’s Paranormal StoryMarla did do some ghost hunting while there, on a tour with the group. They were in the basement of where the original courthouse building had been with ghost hunting equipment that picks up voices.

The groups split up and she held the voice box, but little was heard. When it was time to go, Marla spoke to spirit saying, “I wish you would have come through but we have to go, so good night.” Then from the voice box, they heard a male spirit respond saying, “Good night.” They all jumped and laughed.

House Hunting & Ghost HuntingWhen I was looking for a house years ago, a realtor took me to see this adorable two bedroom home. The minute I climbed the stairs to the bedroom I turned right around and went back down. Someone had died in that house and was still hanging around! I just wanted out.

Marla pointed out that billions of people have died anywhere you go and there’s nothing to fear. People die and move on. She spoke a bit about the recent passing of her mother and how there’s nothing to be afraid of. It’s just the soul leaving the body and returning home.

While that’s true, ghosts are souls that have gotten stuck on earth and didn’t move on. Even still, Marla asked, “What’s the likelihood of one of those ghosts actually hurting you?” Pretty much slim to none really, so that’s something positive to keep in mind.

Clearing Ghosts from PropertiesI had a podcast guest in the past who specialized in clearing houses, buildings and land of ghosts who were hanging around. In that episode, Tina Erwin shared a prayer you can say three times to chase away lost spirits and help them move on.

Learn more about Tina sending ghosts to the light here.

Tina mentioned that someone had walked through the battlefield at Gettysburg, PA, a famous site from the civil war, saying this prayer and hearing spirits say, “Thank you!”

Family Ghost StoriesNext we moved on to talk about some of my own family ghost stories. At my aunt’s gravesite funeral, while we were all standing around saying prayers and watching her be put into the ground, she appeared to me sitting on the neighboring headstone.

We didn’t speak but I knew it was her. However, she looked so much younger and I didn’t know her at that time in her life – I hadn’t been born yet.

After we went to my cousin’s home for a meal, and there on the table was a photo of her mom, looking exactly as I had seen her! I had never seen the picture and was completely taken by surprise about how she looked. That’s who I saw at the cemetery, so that was beautiful confirmation for me.

Driving in My CarAfter my uncle died, as I was driving home from a gathering, all of a sudden I felt more than one presence in the car with me. I was alone so this was a bit of a shocker. I could tell it was my uncle who had just passed, and his mother and father which were my grandparents.

My grandfather had died just before I was born, so I never knew him, but had seen photos. None of them said a word, they just saw quietly while I drove. This was so long ago that if it happened now, perhaps I would get a message or have a conversation. Who knows?

Visitations from Mom & DadI did see my dad at a distance at his funeral. But my mom took center stage! Here’s what happened. I was the last one to say my part of the eulogy, and then the service concluded.

For some reason I turned to look behind me as people were mulling about and leaving the room. Behind me was a stage and sitting at the edge with her legs dangling was my mother!

I was shocked to see her there and said, “Mom, you’re sitting on the stage?” Like questioning what she was doing. She replied, “Why not it’s my funeral!” Good point mom. Certainly couldn’t argue with that logic.

I’m sure if I’d been in a better state of mind, I could of thought of something better to say. But unfortunately, we didn’t talk any further.

She does visit in my dreams from time to time, on occasion with my dad too. They’ve given me hugs, often when I needed them most in real life. Sweet, right?

Marla & Dream ParalysisThen Marla talked about dream paralysis. She asked if I’d had any experience with this and I answered yes. it’s a bit scary for me. Anyway, Marla told two amazing stories on this subject.

The first was about being held down to the bed at her wrists and how she called about Archangel Michael and Jesus to help her. The other was about a visit from her East Indian husband who held her hand and spooned her – you’ve got to listen to the podcast to get those details

Curious about dream messages? Learn how to interpret your dreams and what is going on in your subconscious mind in this latest podcast episode.

The Benefits of Dream AnalysisI asked Megan how she got started with dreamwork. Megan explained she was called to do this work and realized this was her innate gift to share with the world. She had been diagnosed with several chronic illnesses at the same time and this opened the door to greater perception for her.

Dreams are the doorway to enlightenment, awakening and magic. Megan says there is an opportunity for personal transformation by accessing our dreams.

Dreams are curated from your consciousness and offer a way to tap into universal source knowledge that is hidden in your waking life and the illusion of your reality. Dreams are stories that provide guidance from your higher self, the universe, ancestors, and even spirit guides.

Megan takes a more mystical and ethereal approach to interpreting dreams vs. the dogmatic descriptions from the scientific arena. And she suggests you breakup with your dream book because those meanings may not be accurate for you.

Your Dream MessageMy guest believes it’s possible to have visitation dreams and get a dream message. They appear as thoughts but in the middle world, the time in between waking and sleeping, they take on a different quality. When you are between beta (waking world) and theta (meditation and dreaming) waves, in that space you can get deeper information easily.

Recurring dreams let you know that you have not caught on to the message. That’s why the theme repeats in the hopes of getting your attention. it’s like something is bubbling up from the subconscious mind.

Dream Mirror MethodWorking with dreams, Megan has developed a simple four-part method to interpret them. She calls this the Dream Mirror Method.

1. Memory – Write down the dream in as much detail as possible. Even little things can add up. Give your dream a title that sums up what it was about. This gives you a bigger picture or the thousand-foot view.

2. Mood – Capture the mood of the dream, both while in it and upon waking. Think about how you were feeling in the dream – what were the emotions? This reveals a lot of information for your dream message.

3. Mirror – Look at the different things happening in the dream like the people, places and actions, the colors, the numbers, and the elements. If there is a person, describe them with three adjectives to give it more depth.

Megan also looks at the elements, like water, which can represent emotions. Think about what the landscape looks like and the buildings. What was the interaction like with the people?

4. Metaphor – Combine everything together to see how that story can be a metaphor for what’s happening now in your life. This helps you reflect your subconscious into your conscious mind.

Listen to more about dream interpretation.

Redo Your DreamsOne empowering step you can take after a bad dream is to imagine an alternative ending. This allows you to see possibilities for that story and how it can turn out differently, opening up more options.

Another dreamwork method is called dream manifestation or incubation. Before you go to bed, think about a dream you’ve had. Then write your intention for how the dream will be different this time when you re-enter it in your sleep.

Doing this puts your subconscious mind to work on the metaphor presented and allows it to come up with a new solution!

Why Are Dreams Hard to Remember?You may think you’ll remember your dream, but it will likely be gone quickly- they are fleeting! In just 5-minutes you will forget 50% of the dream content and soon after all of it will disappear. This is because you are shifting brainwaves once you’re awake and get into your day.

So, reflecting on your dreams and writing them down just as you wake up is the best practice to start remembering and working with them.

Let’s Talk about NightmaresNightmares seem so profound because of their intense emotional content. The emotional part of your brain is as active in dreams as in your waking life. We experience the dream on the mind level as if they really happened.

Nightmares are a deep opportunity to tap into your shadow self, when using tools to decode the stories and what they are portraying in a metaphorical way. This helps you understand the challenges, fears, limiting beliefs, and blocks.

In a way, you get the chance to better understand yourself more deeply. This is why dreamwork is the ultimate self-care activity. Looking within to understand yourself can free up your energy, resolving issues so you can move on. Plenty of healing opportunities in there.

A Powerful Recall MethodThinking backwards is what Megan calls the process of thinking about your dreams and recalling the details. This is similar to the action of retracing your steps in your mind to remember why you walked into a room (if you’ve forgotten LOL).

You can do this same thing with dreams! It takes patience and consistency to remember your dream message but the more you do it, the better you get at it.

Start at the bottom of the page in your journal and write the first thing you get which is likely the last thing that happened in the dream. Then keep walking back in your memory to get more details till you get to the top of the page. Great idea – that makes a lot of sense!

Integrate Dreamwork into Other Healing PracticesWhether you are a Reiki healer, a therapist, a Shaman, or other light worker, adding dream interpretation to your type of healing can be huge for your clients. It compliments any healing modality.

Megan wants to encourage practitioners to consider learning about dream interpretation and start to work with them as well in their practice.

Most of all, Megan wants you to appreciate your dreams and the dream message vs. disregarding them. They have tremendous transformative power when you open up to working with them

Have you been through a bad fight or breakup and want to get over it fast? Check out these tips to reclaim your power and bounce back from emotional devastation.

Let me tell you my story.

To Hell and BackI feel like I’ve been through hell and back after an unexpected fight with a family member. Out of the blue this person just started screaming at me. OK, I admit I did mention something minor that had bothered me, but the reaction was so over the top, it was shocking.

Nasty things were said to me. Cold, lacking in compassion or any empathy. I was mostly quiet due to the shock factor. At first I tried to defend myself but then I tried to just get off the phone.

It was awful and honestly I was devastated. I just couldn’t understand where this outburst came from. You’ve been there too, right?

So, what comes next? Tears. Lots of tears. A virtual flood. Mostly at night when I was trying to sleep. I also cried as I told the story to friends who were as shocked as I was.

Many tried to come up with reasons. I don’t really care why. There’s no reason to speak to me this way. So, I suffered for several days in my tiny pity party.

How Can I Move On?Then I slowly started to think of what could help me start to move on. Sharing the story with empathetic friends certainly helped. Journaling about the situation and my feelings was good too. But I still needed more.

I smudged myself. I used a smudge stick with sage and sweetgrass and swept over my entire body. Then I saged the entire house to clear it of this emotional tumult.

I listened to a lot of meditation and yoga-like music. This was soothing for my soul. I also made hot chocolate one morning. Doesn’t that cure any problem, for a little while?

But I was still hurting and didn’t feel like telling the story to another soul. What else could I do?

Energy Work & VisualizationI had a session with my chiropractor who does a lot of energy-based work. He said my energy field was burning red and so he poured green light through my crown chakra down through my body to the root to balance my energy.

Green is not only the opposite of red on the color wheel, but it’s the color of heart healing. You KNOW I needed this.

In addition, I took a couple of Epsom salt baths which are wonderful to draw out toxins and sooth sore muscles. A hot bath is relaxing anyway so this was an excellent choice to help me recover.

I visualized healing my heart. Seeing it as a clear quartz crystal that had been cleaved in half and allowing it to heal and come back together into one whole heart.

I did another visualization that I was riding a river and allowing the water to wash over me, clearing my energy field of all this muck. I had a hollow reed pointing up from my mouth so I could breathe easily and let the waters pour over me to cleanse my spirit and soul.

Chanting Shifts Your EnergyChanting had always been a go-to method for shifting my energy. So I started with Ra Ma Da Sa and moved on the a devotional chant to Ganesh – the Hindu God of problems solving. They say that when you call out to Ganesh, he is honor bound to come and help you.

Over the summer I spent an entire month chanting to Ganesh every morning and doing this again also helped me sooth myself and find a bit of peace.

Working with Ganesh lead to my breakthrough. I realized that all this negative thinking was not helping. Yet, my brain was drawn back to rehashing the conversation over and over.

I thought about what was said, thought about what I said, thought about what I wanted to say and still plan to say. Ridiculous! All this negative thinking is the very antithesis of manifesting.

If I continue on this path, I can expect more of the same – disharmony, emotional pain, unhappiness. That’s not what I want!

Empowering Replacement ThoughtsThen it came to me. When I catch myself thinking about how hurt I am, I need to shift the dialog to something positive! What I heard to say was, “I am at peace with this person, whether we speak or not.”

Now I have no plans to call and make up because I feel like the wounded party. I want an apology. I’m not going to ask if we can talk about this and open myself to more potential yelling.

I just have to leave it in the hands of the Universe. For me, I have NO idea how this can be resolved and I see a much quieter holiday season on the horizon. But working with Ganesh, I realized I don’t need to have the solution. The Universe can provide one.

My job is to let this go. Stop thinking all the negative stuff. Stop rehearsing my speeches and rehashing what happened. Drop it!

This is NOT easy, but I am making a good stab at it. I am calming down by catching myself going in circles in my head and stopping that freight train to say, “I’m a peace with this person whether we speak or not.”

Ahhhh. That feels much better.

Take Back Your PowerThis new direction allows me to take my power back. I can be who I am regardless of what was said to me. I am in charge of me. How I feel, what I think and what I do next.

So, if you find yourself in a similar situation, this is why it’s good to work with an intuitive coach like me. I can see what’s happening with you more clearly because I’m not emotionally involved.

With lots of training and 20+ years of experience, I have access to many simple tools that can help you turn your situation around quickly.

Whether you want to try intuitive coaching or get a quick intuitive reading or past life reading, you’ll get the insights that can help you shift your energy and feel better.

I look forward to helping you for whatever reason you choose!

Experts agree we are moving into 5D consciousness and the new earth is coming, but what does this really mean in practical terms? That’s what we are talking about in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

A New Earth Is ComingMany experts are talking about how the new earth is going to split into two – the one for those who ascend to 5D and the other for the 3D folks. For me, this seems very odd and hard to believe.

Could there really be two earths existing together? As a practical person, if your kids are in school, that is going to be 3D and physical. How could it not be?

Mollie doesn’t think we’ll be vibrating into a non-physical reality any time soon. Phew! She refers to the earth as a dense being who is the nurturer and creator. She says the earth is moving through an awakening and energy rising of her own.

We are already vibrational beings on the 3D level, that’s what we are here to experience including the senses and the emotions. That is the physical.

With the cross over between the 3D and 5D, the lines will get blurry. As we evolve, we will naturally separate into two groups – those who don’t evolve (3D), and those of us who are taking a higher perspective and vibrational energy (5D).

What does that mean? Will there be different tribes living in different areas? Will the 5D folks be walking through walls? Seriously, what is really going to happen?

Are you on the ascension rollercoaster?

Evolving into 5D ConsciousnessMollie says our lives will become the reality we vibrate at. As you evolve into 5D consciousness, so do the people around you. But evolving brings you into a greater state of oneness.

I just don’t see this happening anytime soon! And thankfully, Mollie agreed! Even though we are going through a collective awakening, humans evolve generationally.

In her family, Mollie was considered the black sheep because she was willing to look within and do personal development work. This has a created a separation with some family members who don’t believe in this process.

Now 5D consciousness is about reducing duality. In a higher state of consciousness, you no longer judge everything as good or bad. It just is. I find this is so confusing!

For example, according the Esther Hicks, contrast helps us know what we like and what we don’t like. So, how can we live without contrast? Will we be neutral and blasé?

Mollie says we’ll redefine good and bad. If you choose something you don’t want, you learn a lesson rather than considering it to be a failure. You’ll always be moving forward no matter what. Hmmm…

Most people don’t believe in any of this 3D-5D stuff and haven’t even heard about it. And my complaint is whatever happened to 4D? Why did we jump to five?

What Happened to 4D?According to Mollie, 4D is like the rainbow bridge bringing us into 5D consciousness. Where did this concept come from? My bet is at some point, someone channeled this stuff and then it somehow became adopted by one community after another.

Mollie moved through 4D as the result of a friend’s death. She refused to let go and learned how to stay in touch with her friend on the 5D spiritual level. She thinks 4D is the work that you do to get there.

Is the spiritual ascension coming soon?

But then I looked it up on the web. The 3D level is about height, width, and length – that’s the three dimensions. The 4th dimension adds time as another variable. This is physics and the article showed a picture of a donut that turned in on itself – maybe like a Mobius strip.

Then, the 5th dimension has a seamless tie with gravity. That’s like being one with the energy of source. The way it comes to people is through the chakras! So, the upper chakras are from the heart upwards, and the more physical ones are below that.

I researched on the web to learn that the 5th dimension, as a mathematical tool, makes sense of physics models of the Universe like String Theory. Yikes! This podcast is not an episode from the TV show The Big Bang Theory and I’m way over my head scientifically!

The Practicality of 5DMollie says the practicality of 5D is to live with more joy. Her body has naturally come into health. As a result, she eats healthier and craves movement which elevates her vibration. Plus, stopped drinking.

She says your relationships will also improve because there’s less friction. You get along better and you attract people who bring more joy and passion into your life. You create synchronicities that show you the right path and feel supported by the Universe. Mollie wakes up with a smile on her face most days – she feels blessed.

Moving into 5D consciousness, what’s the first step? Mollie says she wants everyone to feel as good as she does. The first step is awareness – that’s what creates room for change and making better choices.

Reflective JournalingShe began with reflective journaling, writing down everything she thought about in the day. This created her higher level of awareness about what she was often thinking about and doing.

In the past, she attracted people who would take advantage of her because she was very giving. But with her reflective journaling she realized it was time to set a boundary and draw a line in her friendships. Doing this created the power of choice from a higher level.

We make 35,000 decisions every single day. Think about how incredible that is! That means there’s quite a bit to reflect on.

5D and Your BusinessSo, how do you apply 5D consciousness to your business?

The first step is to disengage from what you’ve been taught about business and create your business from a place of passion, service and where everyone wins. Next, let go of timelines with no more rushing or hustling. Imagine that!

So, 5D affords you a higher level of abundance in many areas of life. Yay!

I wondered how her clients plan their day? She says it’s through consistency. Here’s an example. When she started being a heart-centered entrepreneur, she thought she had to do everything herself. What helped her make the biggest shifts was figuring out what she loved to do.

Mollie discovered she loved creating one-on-one connections and then created a business model around that. Mollie loves to create content and work with her fabulous clients because they make magic together.

There’s much more to this discussion about 5D consciousness but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to find out the rest!

Ready to improve your odds of finding love after 40? Two long-time dating coaches share their essential secrets in this revealing episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast!

Dating TrendsToday, I’m speaking with my favorite Dating Coach, Debbie Rivers, and we started this episode talking about dating trends. The first one was “Infladating” which is an awkward and ridiculous combination of inflation and dating.

I asked Debbie if she thought this was a new idea. We both laughed – No! However, in the post COVID world, things do cost more. The idea is to have inexpensive first dates, since you will be having several if you’re serious about finding love.

However, both Debbie and I always recommend a short, low budget first date vs. a fancy dinner. You don’t know if you’ll even like each other, so don’t get roped into a long, expensive meal. Who wants to sit there silently munching when you wish you could dash out the door to go home and watch Netflix?

Other suggestions are not surprising like going for a walk in a well-populated park or boardwalk, getting a cup of tea/coffee, a drink, ice cream, or appetizers.

You can get creative and find cheap, fun things to do. Maybe go to a farmer’s market which would give you lots to talk about. Often there’s coffee or pastry to enjoy as well.

Another suggestion is called “Fating” which is Fitness-Dating. Both of us agreed this isn’t something we’d enjoy. If you’re both into fitness, that’s cool, but do you want to get sweaty with a man you just met? I guess that’s up to you.

Sharing an activity is a really good idea and improves your odds of finding love after too. Why? Because it takes the pressure off if you’re doing something together that can reduce judgement and get you beyond the grilling conversations people frequently engage in.

Sex on the First Date? Interview With Debbie Rivers

The Downside of LabelingToday it seems everyone has dated a narcissist, yet they only represent 5% of the population. That means you may have met someone selfish or dated a guy who was not into you, but not necessarily a true narcissist. Let’s keep things real.

The same goes for gaslighting. This is a situation in which a person spent time strategizing how to lower your self-esteem and make you feel crazy. That doesn’t happen overnight and you usually know someone a while before this takes hold of your relationship.

While it’s possible you met someone who was unkind, thoughtless, self-centered or an all out liar, they probably weren’t actually gaslighting you. It happens, but it’s not common.

The other place that labeling has become popular is with attachment styles. Many people have identified their attachment style and use this as their reasoning for why they can or can’t do something.

But in truth, this becomes a crutch or even a handy excuse for not taking responsibility for yourself. If you haven’t heard about this concept, it’s from the book, Attached by Amir Levine.

Labeling Creates Barriers to LoveLabeling can definitely become a barrier to dating and decrease your odds of finding love after 40. Another way this happens is through judgement about people, especially snap judgement.

Whenever you meet someone and can hold back on judgement, you dramatically increase the number of people you get to know and the possibility of finding a good match. It’s essential to give more people a chance and get to know them. This takes time, but the results show it’s a very worthwhile investment.

It can take up to three months to really get to know a person. Go into your dating as if you are on an open-minded adventure. Otherwise, when you put up barriers to lots of people to stay safe and avoid heartbreak, you’re actually creating walls that prevent you from finding love.

Falling in love requires a level of vulnerability. Not stupidity or being a doormat, but a willingness to take a calculated risk about who you’ll spend time getting to know.

Yes, you need boundaries and it’s important to know the qualities of the person you’re seeking. But you also have to take some risk and go down the road a bit with a few people to get to know them better. Everything can’t be decided during a single cup of coffee if you want to improve your odds of finding love after 40.

Learn about Conscious Dating in this podcast.

Camping Was a Deal BreakerDebbie admitted if she had she met her partner at a speed dating event she would have said no. One thing that turned her off about him was that he wanted to take a camper and travel around Australia.

After her divorce, Debbie traveled to 35 countries, so camping held no interest at all. However, she started dating the man she’s been with now for three years during COVID. You couldn’t do foreign travel and so she agreed to the camper and drove around.

Debbie was shocked to discover she loved it! They had a great time and was so glad she hadn’t let camping be a deal breaker.

Even though she has all this knowledge about dating, she might have made a wrong turn. How did she get past this deal breaker? Debbie said he was quite persistent and asked her to, “Give us a chance and go on a date.”

Debbie says women think they are going to know the right man immediately once they meet. But that is not true and she’ll admit it readily about herself. She would have missed out on this great guy if she stuck to her barrier of “no camping”.

We both shared how our clients often end up with a wonderful man who is not the guy they expected or imagined. But they get their needs met with a good man who they wouldn’t normally have considered.

Gender: Equal But DifferentYes, men and women may be equal in intelligence, ability, and more. But in no way are we the same. We communicate and think differently and often come at situations from very different viewpoints.

When you judge a man based on what you expect from a girlfriend, you could be dooming yourself to failure. That won’t help improve your odds of finding love after 40.

Go on Three DatesI always encouraged my clients to go on three dates with a man who has potential. If you aren’t sure the spark is there, but he seems like a good guy, go out with him again. This is part of the Ball Park Theory of Dating.

You need to spend more than an hour with someone and give a guy a chance so he can show you who he really is versus making a snap judgement. That’s how you miss out on a good match.

Yes! A 3-Letter Word That Opens Your WorldI had two single girlfriends who realized they better do something different if they wanted to have more fun and meet more men. Social opportunities would crop up, but they were tired, didn’t feel like it, or wanted to stay home and watch TV. However, they recognized this would not help them find love!

These two women over 40 decided to try something truly revolutionary – which was to say “YES!” to whatever came their way.

So, they said yes to barbecues, free concerts, summer beach rentals, and more. They bought fun props to help them meet men like crazy sunglasses with margaritas or martini glasses on the frames. This made it easier to talk to men, as they were being flirty and friendly.

These two women had the summer of their lives, and today they still reminisce about the fun they had together. Learn to make saying “Yes” a new habit and see how your world opens and expands. You’ll be amazed and happy with the results.

There is so much more to discuss but this post is already too long, so you’ll have to listen to the podcast to get the rest. Debbie is full of brilliant insights and suggestions!

What do horses have to do with finding your truth and healing? I learned about healing with horses in this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Discovering Equus CoachingMy guest this week explains how she became an Equus Coach and shares remarkable stories of transformation for her clients. Horses can do a lot more than take you for a ride!

I started by asking Jenn how she went from being an award-winning ad executive to becoming an Equine Coach. When this journey began, she’d just had a baby who had some developmental struggles, so there was a lot to juggle.

Before having a baby, Jenn had worked with a life coach who helped her quickly figure out whether to have a baby naturally or adopt. Reviewing that pivotal time, the idea came that coaching might be a good career change for her. She had a longing to help people.

Her own life coach had studied with Dr. Martha Beck who had a spiritual life coaching school. On this fateful day, Jenn opened her lap top to discover the details. Then she shut the cover within minutes because she didn’t have that money and wasn’t free on Tuesday afternoon for an entire year.

5 Minutes to ManifestJust 5 minutes later, her phone rang and it was HR, letting her know she’d been downsized! They gave her a year severance, plus a check coincidently, for the exact amount of the program. Now she had the money and was free every Tuesday!

Jenn felt full of joy at this news! In that moment it became obvious something bigger was at play in her life. Everything had lined up literally in minutes to make her new direction possible.

Once she started the program, Jenn did a Shamanic journey with Dr. Martha Beck and saw a horse who gifted her a brass ring. Her life coach partner suggested she start working with horses to see if she liked it. The idea came that perhaps Equus Coaching was Jenn’s new path.

Next, Jenn found a horse farm for an internship that was willing to teach her everything about horses if she helped them move and she worked with them for 6 years soaking it all in. She never dreamed they’d accept her within one hour of sending her application!

Healing with HorsesAs it turns out, there are many benefits of equine therapy and Jenn’s foray into this arena also helped her daughter.

When her daughter was 4, she started riding horses in a therapeutic program. Within two years, her language disorder was completely gone and her recovery was confirmed with a neuropsychological evaluation. Nothing else worked including speech therapy. Amazing!

Healing with horses works in many ways. Jenn says the horses gait is actually a big part of the healing in equine therapy. Apparently, therapists find the exact horse with the right gait to do the type of healing required.

How Jenn WorksClients don’t actually ride horses when working with Jenn. Instead, Jenn and her clients talk about the situations they want to change outside the horse’s paddock.

The next step is to notice the horse’s behavior after talking for a while, to get clues about what is underneath preventing clients from having what they want. The horses actually reveal the truth about what the clients feel, since often their words and feelings are often not in alignment.

In other words, you might think one thing, but the horses will reflect what’s going on in your subconscious mind. Yes, they are highly intuitive! They provide non-verbal, non-judgmental biofeedback. So when you are “lying” to yourself, the horses will show you exactly that.

Horses excel at providing clarity on what needs to heal AND on showing clients their own magnificence. Healing with horses helps you unwind cultural biases or from family and more. They cut to the truth quickly.

Case Study #1 – Finding LoveOne client, let’s call her Samantha, had an abusive father, which as it often does, lead to having an abusive husband. Samantha told Jenn that she’s a brilliant woman who is rocking her career, so why can’t she figure out how to find a healthy relationship?

Jenn invited her to come to the farm. As Samantha shared her story and wasn’t being totally truthful with herself, the horses were standing on the other side of the paddock. But, when she started to get at the real truth, the horses came closer and connected with her heart.

Basically, Samantha believed she couldn’t hold a firm boundary with a narcissistic, abusive man which is why she couldn’t break up with one guy and he ended up stalking her.

After a cord cutting and healing with horses, everything seemed to clear up. From then on, Samantha became more present and clear-minded about her beliefs and within two months the wonderful man she’s with now came into her life.

Samantha admitted she never would have given this guy a second thought in the past because he was too good. But after the benefits of Equus Coaching, she could see how he was a far better match for her.

Case Study #2 – Conversation with Her HusbandJenn loves to lean into the mysteries and the magic of the Universe. Me too! What blew her mind was that she could do this work over zoom! The horses still respond even though they cannot see the client. As with most things it’s all about the energy.

In session with her client, Barbara, they talked about a conversation she wanted to have with her husband. As Barb laid it out for Jenn, the horses showed her through their body language what could work or cause more fighting.

For example, when Barbara said something that would escalate the situation, the horses ears would pin back and appear less cooperative. This alerted her to the parts of the conversation that needed a better tone of voice or word choice, so she would be heard all the way through.

Barbara learned how to approach this type of conversation with love which changed her communication with her husband dramatically.

Horse Dynamics Give You CluesUltimately, healing with horses reflects back to you exactly what you most need to know for any situation you present. The horses play out the dynamic and heighten your awareness when you know what to look for.

Of course, Jenn is a huge part of this magical process. On any given day you might try this yourself if you had access to horses, but Jenn is the facilitator, helping this process unfold. That’s the horse whisperer part, right?

Jenn is also a Shamanic Reiki Master Teacher and she does Shamanic Equuus Coaching if her client has something she wants to create or manifest.

Listen to more on Shamanism

Are Horses More Intuitive Than Other Animals?Jenn’s perspective is that horses have a higher level of consciousness and are more intuitive. She’s seen more of this type of exchange with horses, but she doesn’t discount other animals at all.

However, if you’re not a believer, you aren’t likely to have a powerful experience. You need to be spiritually open and curious to get the benefits of Equus Coaching.

There are a string of other fun and fascinating stories Jenn shares including transformative client examples, shaman tales, and animal communication.

I shared a video about the most amazing story about a black panther named Diablo in an ethical animal conservatory in South Africa, but you’ll have to listen to the podcast to get the rest. (Makes me cry every time I watch it!)

Ultimately, this is another episode that shows us we are all more connected that you might think on the surface. Knowing this can spread peace and unity, cooperation, respect and love.

In this episode, first you’ll get an update on my spiritual adventure with a message from my basil plants. Then Melissa Oatman talks about, “Am I on the right path?”

Update on My Spiritual Adventure!Wrapping up the summer season, I went into the garden to express my gratitude for the beauty and bounty. Sitting on the little bench near the zinnias, I reached out to the elementals, plant spirits and devas to share my heart-felt thanks.

When I opened my eyes, I was watching little orange brown moths flit around the zinnias, picking up pollen or drinking the nectar. They often fly in groups or pairs, with synchronized movements, almost like a figure skating duo.

Then before I knew it, two little moths buzzed over to me and sat on my arm! My first comment to them was, “I’m not food.” How silly of me!

It took me a moment or two to realize what was happening. They were saying hello and letting me know, “We hear you.” My moth friends did a little dance on my arm, then sat still before lifting off on their merry way.

Isn’t that amazing? Moths have never sat on my arm before! It was nature’s way of letting me know they heard me and appreciated my gratitude. My heart lit up with this realization.

Listen to the first episode about my spiritual adventure.

Basil Plants Share a MessageAfter that, I sought out the basil plants to see if they had a message. Not sure why I picked them – perhaps it was a little nudge from spirit.

Earlier in the season, the basil plants weren’t looking so good. The bugs were attacking them and eating the small new leaves. I was worried they weren’t going to make it, so I bought another plant and kept it on the deck instead of planting it in the garden just in case.

But by August they had become lush and like big bushes 3.5 feet high. Healthy and full of leaves. I let some of it flower and the bees were in heaven.

The basil said to me, “Don’t judge how we are doing in the moment, because you don’t know how beautiful things can turn out. You gave up on us but look at us now!”

What a great message and so true! You can’t take a moment in time and decide how things will end up. Maybe have a bit more faith. I’m always amazed at the messages my garden shares with me.

Listen to another message from the garden-the honeysuckle vine.

Am I on the Right Path?The next part of this podcast episode is an episode from my friend Melissa Oatman’s podcast, Awaken Your Inner Awesomeness. She talks about how to know if you are following the right path. There are many ways to tell and this is a wonderful exploration of that idea.

Melissa’s podcast has hundreds of episodes and way over a million downloads – she’s very popular and comes from the heart. I’m sure you’ll enjoy her!

Happy listening!

She said, “We always fight, but we love each other,” but she wanted to win the battles. She then admitted there wasn’t much love, yet she felt a deep connection and pull to be with him. Discover her past lives and soul contract with this man and what her guides had to say about it.

Savannah’s Difficult RelationshipIn this past life reading for Savannah, she revealed that all she and her romantic partner did was fight. They had tough screaming matches and she created a barrier by keeping the bed piled with clothing and books to keep him away.

Savannah wanted to understand why they were driven to fight and how she could fix the situation. She wanted to get back into the house they bought together, but for now she was living with family and he had the house.

My client was sad that this was the state of her relationship, but she couldn’t seem to find a way around the arguments. They were harsh, cold and constant and this was wearing her down. Thinking about the statement, “We always fight, but we love each other,” made her realize that sometimes, love is not enough.

On the other hand she dreamed of moving back in and redecorating. She loved that house and wanted to be in it – with him. So confusing, right?

To feel compelled to battle it out, yet want to be with someone at the same time. Not an easy situation.

Past Life ReadingI accessed the Akashic Records for Savannah and uncovered a surprising series of lives that were about either war, battles and sword fights or peace and a spiritual life dedicated to love and the Goddess Aphrodite. Talk about contrast!

She had been in several lives with this man before, often as a man herself. We always fight, but love each other was a theme that didn’t relate just to romance.

They were sometimes brothers and other times from competitive, warring families. Her lives covered a lot of the planet from ancient Greece, to several countries in the South Pacific including Japan and then Manilla which came to me out of the blue.

That’s when Savannah told me her family was from Manilla! What? That was amazing to find out. I had no idea and had never even seen a photo of her.

Her Life MissionThis time around on earth, Savannah’s mission is to stop the fighting. She’s here to learn how to give up the desire to win and instead, learn to honor and take care of herself. To do what is for her highest good, without concern over whether or not she wins the battle.

But the desire to fight and win runs strong through many lifetimes and it’s not an easy thing to simply give up. The choice is truly up to her.

Ready for your own Akashic Records Reading?

Spirit Guides Offer AdviceThen her guides came in to share their support and advice. They suggested she be around water because that would help her feel more peaceful and bring solace to her soul.

Savannah said she loves the water and always feels better when she’s near the ocean or a lake.

This episode is filled with fascinating insights, discussion about life lessons, making choices, difficult relationships and so much more. If you have a difficult relationship where you also say, “We always fight, but we love each other,” then listen to this episode and see if it gets you some insight as well.

Are you curious to know the secrets of a Pythian Priestess and what kind of magic she does? Find out in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

The Oracle of DelphiOriginally, the Pythian Priestess was the Oracle of Delphi in the Temple of Apollo back in ancient Greece. The oracles (usually three) were often women in midlife, taken from their families to devote themselves to the divine for the rest of their lives.

Over the last few years in my past life readings, I’ve been finding clients who actually were part of the Oracle of Delphi. That got me wondering just how many oracles were there? it must have been quite a few for me to keep bumping into them.

So, lots of women did this work!

She’d Rather Be a PriestBut my guest in this episode, Ashley Ryan, is a modern day Pythian Priestess! It all started when she was four and her two aunts, who were nuns, asked if she wanted to marry Jesus.

Her immediate reply was, “No, I rather be a priest.” How precocious, right? Her aunts let her know that as a woman, she couldn’t be a priest.

Then in 2013, while in college, Ashley learned about the Pythia Priestess which transformed that childhood dream into reality. Then she embarked on spiritual initiation in 2019.

Search for TruthAshley had been searching for Truth her entire life. She had been inspired by ancient philosophers like Socrates, Plato, and Lao Tzu, but the academic side of philosophy didn’t cut it. Something was missing – the esoteric, mystical aspects.

The Philosophical Research Society in LA captured her attention, where she learned that magic is real. Next, she found a magical society to join, and began her initiation.

When you are initiated, you are brought into an energy current and each one is dedicated to a different God or Goddess. The ancient Pythians were devoted to Apollo, but she is devoted to the Goddess Isis (Greek version) which is the Queen of Heaven.

This was a life changing experience that had her looking at her values and decide what to dedicate her life and teaching what magic truly is. Her goal is to bring a more wholesome world view about magic to what has been a cold materialistic world in recent years.

So, how does this work for her in modern day life? Ashley said she’s a vessel for the Goddess requiring twice daily rituals to cleanse the energy around her and prayer as well. She speaks for the Goddess.

Love Unites the UniverseA big part of what she helps people understand today is that there is love in the world. Not the diluted version of love like, “I love pizza,” but deep love is the force that unites the Universe and keeps the electrons moving around the atom’s nucleus.

The other message she shares is unity and acceptance of others. Currently, many people can barely tolerate others with differing viewpoints, etc. Having entered the age of Aquarius, there is a shift away from dogma and to see that we are all human. We must respect each other since we are all flesh and blood and a reflection of the divine.

Tarot and the ElementsMagic is the creation, direction, and manipulation of energy. In our world we have the four elements of fire, air, water and earth. Magic means that you not only control the elements outside of you, but also how psychologically you work with the elements.

Here’s a secret: The elements are hidden in the Tarot cards.

  • Cups are the water element and deal with emotions and intuition
  • Wands are the fire element which is about passion, drive, and creative spark
  • Swords are the air element which relates to your thoughts and sense of right and wrong
  • Pentacles are the earth element which relates to everything physical

Domestic ViolenceWhen Ashley works with her clients, she’s usually working with the emotions. A lot of the magic she does today is around domestic violence, helping people escape from negative, harmful situations. She also helps clients reevaluate how they got into the situation, how to not repeat the pattern, and finally break free of it.

This was so surprising to me! That’s quite a service. Building up self-worth and the fire and confidence to take a stand for themselves and say, “No more.” This is often not an easy shift for people.

Ashley does this work as a labor of love for her clients and says she has a lot of success. Good to know!

Candle Magic & SigilsMost of the rituals Ashley does with her clients use candle magic because this incorporates the four elements plus a fifth – spirit. The candles represent alchemy.

She’s a big proponent because of the psychology of ritual. our human minds are conditioned to understand symbolism. By studying the flame of the candle, and putting the intention there, people can feel that intention growing inside them.

There’s a lot of research being done now in accredited universities about how rituals impact our subconscious mind. She draws a sigil for clients which is from chaos magic.

Curious about ceremonial magic?

Every night before the client goes to bed for two weeks, they are instructed to trace the sigil with their eyes which imprints this into the subconscious mind.

They also listen to a recording of binaural beats at 6 hertz to get their brain waves not a more receptive state – theta and delta waves. This changes the neural pathways and prepares the client for the energetic influx about to happen to make the desired life changes.

Then on the new or full moon, depending on the kind of magic, they will destroy the sigil through one of the elements. They rip it up, throw it into the air, or burn it, flush it down the toilet or let it go down the drain, or lastly bury it.

My guest finds some of this work tiring. When she thinks about the earth oceans, and how microplastics are destroying the environment. We need massive change and a lot of that is dependent upon what we worship. So many people today worship money vs. a God or Goddess.

Ashley wants to be clear – she is not a princess but a handmaiden, serving the Goddess. She does not wield her own power but that of the Goddess and everything she does she tries to do within that Goddess light.

You Don’t Walk AloneOne important point Ashley made is that she doesn’t walk alone on this path. There are many like her working for the same good. She also loves living in Los Angeles because of the magic that is so prominent in the area.

Being around open-minded people who want to exchange ideas is very exciting for her. She loves a good open conversation!

I asked her how she notices the magic around her. Ashley is blessed to live near nature in Los Angeles which is uncommon. Plus, she has a little garden and loves her cat Euphrates, an orange tabby cat.

There is a whole lot more including talking about ceremonial magic, rituals, a wild magical experience, and why she thinks magic is childish which makes it powerful! Go ahead and listen right now

Tell your story and release stored emotions from your body by using the power of gesture. My guest Jen Aks will explain this joyful process in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

How Did the Power of Gesture Begin?My first question was how did she come up with the Power of Gesture? Jen said she didn’t come up with it. This truly came through her soul and she feels like a passenger on a train being taken through and guided in this experience. It is pure soul work.

She’s been a movement practitioner and a dance educator for three decades and she has been moving through life in all sorts of ways. But now, Jen has paired her love of movement with her passion for emotional wellness to help you tell your story with the power of gestures.

Early in her life, Jen struggled a lot because she could not find the words to express herself and communicate in the way she wanted to connect. She felt stuck in her body and movement became her language. Jen says dance saved her life and brought her kind of communication to the world.

Breaking COVID’s IsolationA few years ago when the pandemic hit, she organically wanted to help people stay connected to their bodies. Knowing first hand what its like to feel disconnected and disembodied, Jen knew the pandemic made things worse with so much isolation happening.

Jen decided to try out an idea she had and worked with people she was close to. Her aim was to help them move through their emotions and reconnect them to their bodies. During this process, she just kept saying the words “The power of gesture” as she did this work with people.

Over time, Jen realized this process she created to tell your story is a real method that is helping people. The work has been really transformative for her clients and for herself.

Jen has free 30-minute workshops every Tuesday at 10am ET and Wednesday at noon ET, because she wants people can give this a try.

You Want Me to Move?My first reaction to hearing about this process is, “That is not for me.” I’m not into ecstatic dance and that sort of thing (nothing wrong with it just not my way of expressing myself). But for some reason, (spirit nudging perhaps) I decided to try a free session.

I showed up feeling dread for what Jen might make me do in this online workshop. But there was none of that awkward, embarrassing feeling at all!

On zoom, we were in our own little boxes in the gallery view. Everyone stayed seated, and just moved our arms or bodies from the hips up. There was no dancing! It was easy and fun and I fell in love with the process.

Tell Your Story in a GroupJen also does this with larger groups where each woman created a gesture and practiced it. Then she put on the music and each woman did her gestures, which we all followed.

One by one, we did every woman’s gesture to music all in a row and it was a total blast! I was shocked at how uplifting and joyous this exercise was. That’s why I wanted to have Jen as a guest because I want everyone t know about this practice. It’s fabulous!

I asked Jen how she figured out that creating a gesture would help tell your story and help move emotions through the body. Turns out Jen knew this from how her own life unfolded, expressing herself through dance. She knew she was really communicating through her body.

At first this whole thing was very experimental. Jen wanted to create an embodiment practice and she played with all sorts of ways to tap into the emotions. From gestures, to music, to repetition, she formulated this methodology which is amazing.

Acknowledgement Feels AmazingDoing this in a group provides a high level of acknowledgement as you watch every person follow your personally created gestures. It also creates a safe space to open your heart as the energy spirals up and the vibration elevates. People just don’t get that kind of acknowledgement in society today.

One time Jen’s coach asked her what is your mission. She quickly replied, “I want to shift the mindset of humanity one story at a time.” It really is about shifting mindset when you tell your story in a group, there’s tremendous acknowledgement through the shared experience.

Surrender the EmotionThe most amazing part of this is you do not need to know what every emotion is about that comes up. You just release it and let it move through. Surrender to it and let it go! That’s a beautiful thing in my opinion.

I asked Jen what she’s noticed over the last few years of doing this work. Jen says she is, “Blown away by the methodology and how it has evolved.” She feels grateful watching people transform and get unstuck. “It’s been incredible.”

Jen also continues to tweak the method as she goes. She’s even done workshops with teenagers, seeing them respond with joy. Her personality works well with this kind of flowing creativity, allowing her to see new possibilities all the time and add components as they come to mind.

I’ve talked about working with Jen before in the episode which gave an update on my spiritual adventure. Working with her is how I created the Sunflower Pose.

Short DocumentariesAt the start of COVID, she reached out to friends and created 150 documentaries with each woman having a chance to tell her story. These are 3-5 minute videos and 80 are on her youtube playlist. Plus, she shows them in virtual galleries through zoom from time to time.

Example of TransformationHere’s an example of transformation that can occur. One client is in a 10-year relationship that she’s considering leaving. Something happened between them that has interfered with her trust. With Jen’s support, the client created gestures depicting two mounds of cement, which represent the block between them.

But through her gestures, the client turned the cement mounds into sand, lowering the height to see past the top. Doing this opened up conversation between them after this amazing session – that was quite a transformation.

I can vouch that this work is incredibly powerful. Give it a shot and tell y our story with the power of gesture. Jen is kind, super supportive and encouraging through the entire process offering you a new way to express yourself and heal with creativity and joy.

BIO – Jen AksJen Aks, Embodiment Coach, Speaker, Dancer, and Expert in the field of communication, founded and created The Power of Gesture Method, a groundbreaking form of moving meditation.

Movement saved Jen’s life and as a result, revealed her gift to teach embodied, soulful connection. Jen’s method shows us how to live authentically accepting & embracing our lived experience, recognizing that our stories matter and help us tap into the wisdom of our bodies so that we can lead all aspects of our life with clarity.

The Power of Gesture methodology was created in response to the 2020 pandemic as a way for people to reconnect with their minds, bodies and souls. Jen’s mission is to unlock the intuitive language of the body so that we live authentically and serve purposefully.

Jen holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from New York University and has dedicated her career to shifting the mindset of humanity one story at a time.

Do you love crystals? Are you curious about ancestor altars? If so, you’ll enjoy this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast with my guest Leslie McAllister, owner of the Ceremonial Shop in Pittsburgh, PA.

Crystal Enthusiast, Witch, and Tarot ReaderLeslie shied away from being called a crystal expert and insisted she is still a student. Yet, she certainly knows a lot about rocks – like a tome of knowledge!

I started by asking her about her favorite stone and she responded immediately – selenite! Here’s why. First its named after and connected to the Greek Goddess Selene, who is the personification of the moon. She’s the triple Goddess of the full moon and divine Mother. Leslie feels like the moon is her home base.

Intensely programmable due to all of it’s layers, the structure is delicate but strong. The stone works great for clearing energy and works like a phone cord to speak to your celestial friends above.

For Leslie, it’s calming, energizing, clearing, and great for charging. You can get lost in it’s many faceted formation. The natural shape is long bars but it can be cut, shaped and polished. Selenite is a self-clearing stone, but no matter what you do, never put it in water – it melts!

Personally, I use it like a wand to clear my energy field, running down my body held a couple inches away. In addition, I sit my jewelry and other crystals on top of it, so they get cleared.

(We’ll touch on crystal grids and ancestor altars soon, so hang in there.)

Tanzanite, Merlinite, & Kyanite with RubyFor me, tanzanite is my favorite gem. That blueish purple color that’s sort of periwinkle just sends me. Tanzanite is a facilitator of higher consciousness and stimulates your intuition and perception. The stone also helps to detoxifying the body, never mind that it’s stunning!

Of course, I have several other favorites such as Merlinite which seems to come as two different stones. The one I like best is dendritic opal but there is also indigo gabbro.

Leslie considers this stone like a deep stormy force. Think of Merlin and other grand wizards like Gandalf or Dumbledore and the idea of light, dark, and balance.

Other stones we mentioned are kyanite and ruby blended which we both love. It’s gorgeous and the combination helps you connect to your higher self and speak your truth from the heart.

Herkimer Diamonds, Bumblebee Jasper, & LabradoriteThen there’s Herkimer diamonds which are high grade clear quartz. I have one that is palm-size and Leslie mentioned desert diamonds are similar. This stone is a power ally to increase spiritual energy and open your third eye.

Also, a huge favorite of mine is bumblebee jasper with it’s orange, yellow, white and black bands helping you connect with joy and happiness. Next up in the fave’s is labradorite – can’t have too much of that stone filled with bright blue/green flashes of color. Beautiful!

Leslie said moonstone and larvikite are like labradorite, as they are all part of the feldspar family. These stones create a sense of magic and cause you to look within. Labradorite is gentle opener for your journey to spiritual awareness, helping you see the seen and unseen.

Clearing and Working with CrystalsLeslie talked about working with pointed crystals and how the energy flows out of the point. She might point it to something she wants to manifest or at a part of her body for healing.

Spheres are amazing because they radiate energy in 360 degrees. Palm stones are soothing and calming fitting snuggly into your hand.

She does a lot of altar work in the bath and creates a crystal grid which is a formation using several stones. (Information on the ancestor altars is coming up next!)

She also keeps similar stones together like blue stones for communication. Working with crystals, you want to be in the right relationship with them, saying this is the work we are going to do together.

You under utilize a stone if you just treat it like artwork, leave it on a shelf, and don’t work with it. That’s a shame! Crystals can be cleared and programmed like computer chips – they like to hold information.

Leslie advises that you bond with your stone and keep it with you. Sleep with it, carry it in your pocket, put it in your bath. Put it on your bedside table. Take it in the car wherever you go. This is practical magic. You’re making an agreement with the stone to work together.

Communicate with Your StonesAsk your stone, what do you want to do? Listen and let it inform you. Next take it to your working altar and create a grid with it.

For example, working with pyrite or citrine which are high manifestation stones good for financial growth and stability, prosperity and joy. Write your intention and sit your stone on top of it. Place 1/2″ clear quartz points which amplify the energy all around it in a circle – there you go crystals grids made easy.

Leslie allows the stones, her intuition, ancestors, and guides speak to her about what steps she needs to take. Trusting the crystal and her intuition is how she does it which is really organic and maybe not that traditional. But she loves doing this and gets great results.

Ancestor Altars & Crystal AltarsOkay, here’s how to set up your ancestor altar. Start with framed photos of your ancestors on the altar. However, make sure there are no pictures of people still living since that messes with the energy.

Next include items representing each of the four elements and directions. A goblet of water (west) is an offering and represents the element of water. Crystals stand in for the element of earth (north). A feather works for the element of air (east) and a candle for fire (south).

Placement is important for the ancestor altar. Find a spot in the living room or kitchen because your ancestors want to be in the middle of things. That’s why your public living spaces are perfect – the natural places you would gather.

I also have a heart for love and card I wrote. And this is the place where I give thanks. I literally stand before the photos and look at each ancestor going back to my great grandparents and thank them for their DNA, their wit, problem solving ability and intelligence. I’m grateful for their love, support and guidance too.

Leslie suggested asking at your ancestor altar, what do you need me to heal? I am at service for you. That sounded amazing to me – great idea! It can be joyful, gratitude, healing, or you might do shadow work and so much more.

This magical woman is also careful to call out to ancestors who have healed themselves, opening the gate to those who are already healed and truly ascending. This is how you do work for the highest good of all concerned.

We also talked about crystal altars, charging and clearing your crystals during different moon phases, how to trust your intuition about the stones, and so much more.

You’ll have to listen to the episode to hear the rest of this sparkling crystal discussion. Last but not least, Leslie thanked Vanessa who is a fabulous Soul Guide and Business Coach for connecting us. You can listen to Vanessa’s fantastic interview here – its one of my favorites!

What is conscious dating? That’s what you’ll discover in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast with my guest, mindful dating expert, Lauren Smith. This will improve the way you date forever so treat yourself and listen in!

Conscious Dating Is a Mindful ApproachLauren started the interview by clarifying that’s she’s not a dating coach. But with her extensive knowledge of what gets in the way emotionally, she sure could be.

She’s just a human who went through a lot of heartbreak and needed a tool to get through it during the pandemic. It worked so well for her, Lauren wants to share this tool with other singles.

This all started with the quarantine when it became hard to meet anyone new because businesses weren’t open. Not the movies, nor the restaurants or bars. So, she got on the dating apps and found someone!

Lauren decided to date a woman this time and attributes this coming out to the solitude and time to think provided by COVID. Meeting this new woman was SO exciting. She’d never felt this way about anyone before.

Because dating couldn’t happen the normal way with dinner dates, etc., they ended up spending a lot of time together at each other’s homes. This sped up the process and things got hot and heavy quickly.

The pace dramatized all the things Lauren had been doing wrong in relationships. She noticed a lot of micro-behaviors leading her to toxic partners. The sped up time frame allowed her to clearly see the crazy things she was doing.

Gaps in Her Skill SetGaps in her relationship skill set caused these problems. For example, the hardest gap to admit to was her expectation that the person she’s dating should have their sh*t together. Lauren found she was hyper-focused on why her girlfriend wasn’t trying to fix her own problems.

Bravely, Lauren admits that she should have been focused on taking responsibility for HER OWN problems. Not looking within created a fog around her that made it harder to see these toxic behaviors.

Finally, Lauren figured out that she wasn’t actually resentful about her girlfriend’s problems. Nope, instead she was mad at herself for not taking steps to create a good situation for HERSELF. In other words, she was bummed she chose someone who wasn’t right for her.

In fact, she recognized she chose the woman for who she could BECOME, vs. being who a person who could meet her needs right from the start.

The Brilliant Ah-Ha MomentThis was a brilliant ah-ha moment because when you realize you are externally focused and putting pressure on someone else, that’s your first chance to look at what you are doing. You need to focus on yourself and figure out if your date can meet your needs exactly as they are today.

You have to accept the person you’re dating as who they are in the moment. You can’t hope and wait that they improve.

Your dates that don’t work out aren’t bad people. But they aren’t right for you since they might not have the same values, want the same kind of relationship, or look at life the same way. That’s why it’s a mismatch!

The point here is that you cannot fix anyone. Conscious dating means that you are looking for a good match based on who the person is right now.

Many of my clients come to each new relationship with the attitude that they can “make it work”. That’s not appropriate!

If you’re in a year long relationship and a problem comes up that you want to resolve to make things work, that’s fine. But not on date two or three!

That realization for Lauren was massive. She could no longer point the finger at everybody else. She admitted, “Oh it’s me. I’m the one that has my priorities mixed up or I’m the one avoiding conflict.” At that point, it became clear she was the one who had to change.

Mindful Dating – Fantasy vs. the Present MomentAnother big lesson was to beware of getting lost in a fantasy. Since this was the first woman she had dated, she got lost in how great it felt and how excited she was about the future possibilities. She wasn’t paying attention to the facts about the present moment.

Basic mindfulness is about coming back to the now, re-engaging with your senses, figuring out the real experience you are having. You have to look at the evidence. If you lose touch with this information, you might be thinking everything will be better later.

This is a place to apply mindfulness and why it’s called mindful dating. You stay aware as you get to know someone new and don’t let your heart take you away in the fantasy of your romantic future.

Even when things are great now, if you ignore facts and focus on how great it COULD BE, you’re thinking you’ll be happy someday. It’s almost like you’re trading happiness in the present moment for happiness in the future that hasn’t existed and may not ever exist.

In Lauren’s past, focusing on a fabulous future was better than looking at how she might need to look within and make some changes.

This is where Lauren truly up leveled her consciousness about herself and dating. She started to meet new people using this new conscious dating concept, really thinking about the practicality and facts about the people she met.

Future romantic fantasy is a huge trap women fall into, thinking things will be better later when the guy falls in love with her. However, a relationship will NEVER be better than the first few dates.

Sex on the first date and more dating questions answered here

When to Walk AwayIf you don’t see what you like in the first three dates, walk away. If someone is close to what you are looking for in the first few dates, go on another date to learn more.

However if the person doesn’t make you happy, lift your spirits, or add fun to your life, walk away. Or, if the person you’re dating doesn’t treat you right or bring out the best in you, move on.

This mindset shift that happened for Lauren has trickled into every part of her life and now she has the most confidence in dating! She thought that was backwards but I assured her that much of life is just like dating. For examples sales – plenty of rejection there!

Love is Your DestinyOne thing I’m a firm believer in is that love is YOUR destiny. At one point Lauren had said something about get your matches while you can as if they were scarce. This is where I disagree.

If love is your destiny, then there is no shortage. Every person you meet brings you closer to the right mate for you. After a bad date, dust yourself off and ask, “Okay, who is next?”

Insecurities come up for everyone. But having your standards set and feeling worthy of love, helps you get through the rough patch of doubting yourself. Keep those standards in mind! That’s what conscious dating and mindful dating are all about.

You are worthy of being treated with respect and feeling safe to be yourself. Don’t let go of standards like these or others you may develop. This is how you find someone you are compatible with for a lasting love that is fun and fulfilling.

Oh my gosh there was so much more in the episode, you’ll have to listen to the rest yourself. Lots of gems tumbled out of her mouth and Lauren is a fountain of dating wisdom you just can’t miss.

In this episode, I’m speaking with Coach Amanda Kate about the repeating patterns in your life that seem like Groundhog’s Day and her new book Divine. Messy. Human.

Twin Flame RelationshipWe started by talking about how she’s in a twin flame relationship and I mentioned how that must not be easy. These relationships are often tumultuous. She agreed and admitted sometimes she wonders why she welcomed this in. Then laughed.

Amanda explained that every day, it’s like having a mirror there, showing her the good and bad about herself consistently. Yet, there is such a pull, it’s hard to imagine life without him. So, it’s a place for incredible growth and plenty.

Then we had a good laugh as she also admitted there are times when she calls a girlfriend and asks if she can just hop off the merry-go-round and stop with the lessons. She just wants a holiday from it! Who can’t relate to that?

Spiritual Growth Is Not an Easy PathWhen I was younger, I thought the spiritual path would make my life easier and Amanda busted out laughing hearing that. She pointed out spiritual growth is not an easy path. Being on your path means you have to forge it every step of the way.

Yes, it’s exciting and wonderful, but requires a lot of rest, patience, and nurturing of the self. I shared a story about the eulogy I gave for my mom when she passed and how I told a bunch of stories that all began with “My mother taught me…”

I’m so lucky because my parents were very supportive of me forging my own path. They never gave me a hard time about quitting jobs or starting something new. It hasn’t been easy, but honestly, I don’t think I could have lived my life another way.

We also laughed at how it feels like you need a machete to cut through the underbrush to find your way! That’s so low tech. It’s time to upgrade and change the vision to a cutting tool that at least has a gas-powered motor! LOL.

Reaching Your Full PotentialShifting gears, I asked Amanda about how she helps business owners reach their full potential and magnetically draw ideal clients to them. Turns out there’s no magic process.

She said you can’t just imagine the Mercedes appears in your driveway; you have to take action as well in the 3-D world. This goes back to forging your own path and taking charge of your life.

She also said when you admit you have no control and embrace uncertainty, that’s where the magic lies. While there are people who can follow a step-by-step process to build business success, that didn’t work for me.

What really helped Amanda was finding her four purpose and passion archetypes which revealed her genius. This is what she does with her clients today, because finding the way you work best is so important.

She leverages whatever she has learned, fills in by learning from other experts, and takes that work out into the world.

Amanda’s Process Involves 3 Steps1. Set up your future vision and know how it will feel (joy, awe, excitement) 2. Then seek your next step 3. And glance behind you for what is holding you back and needs clearing

Sometimes you can set a time frame and deadline, but it’s not always needed. There are also situations when it can get in the way. Amanda could totally relate to this because of how her book got completed in just 10 weeks. Once this was stated – it just came pouring out of her.

Amanda belongs to a group called Lunar Life Networking for intention setting, releasing, forgiveness work and gratitude. It’s amazing. And regarding their manifesting, they say, “This or something better now manifests for me under grace and in perfect ways.”

Is Everyday Groundhog’s Day?We talked about routine vs. living in a more free-flowing state. For some people, there is a lot of safety and security in having a daily routine. The consistency helps them thrive and focus on achieving their goals.

Earlier in her life, everyday was the same over and over again which she likened to Groundhog Day, the movie. Today, Amanda goes by what she feels.

To her, routine doesn’t allow for tapping into creativity and expressing yourself completely. This goes back to embracing uncertainty, where nothing is the same and anything can happen which creates more opportunities.

Muscle Testing and KinesiologyAmanda uses muscle testing and applied kinesiology in her practice. This is a blend of Eastern wisdom and Western science. Everything that happens to the body is caused by stress – physical, chemical, or emotional.

What is applied kinesiology? Also known as muscle strength testing, it’s a diagnostic method and treatment based on the belief that muscle weakness can signal problems within the body.

From Amanda’s point of view, the more harmony and energetic congruence there is within the body, the healthier you are. She uses this method to find and release blocks related to your business and life not just for health.

Combining all her skills (which are numerous), Amanda helps her clients achieve their goals with many non-traditional techniques.

Amanda offers a Free 20-minute chat to see if you would be a good fit to work together and you can sign up on her website below.

Bio – Amanda KateAmanda Kate is a Kinesiologist, Mentor, Mother and more. Author of Divine. Messy. Human.: A Spiritual Guide to Prioritizing Internal Truth over External Influence, she released the book with the information, tips and practices that helped her move from self-loathing to self-acceptance, self-love, and self-empowerment. A recovering people-pleaser and self-flagellator, she walks the path straddling the Divine and Messy daily.

Always growing, developing and learning new ways of being to hopefully, one day leave the Earth better than she found it. Amanda Kate helps people to regain their vitality, smashing through their internal glass ceiling and limitations to find new levels of health, vitality and abundance.

She also works with business owners to increase their vibration and attract greater wealth and prosperity. Amanda Kate lives in Melbourne, Australia with her twin flame, her children, his children, and a dog named Zeus.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, JJ DiGeronimo shares how mindfulness helps you advance your career, business, and life.

From Tech Leader To Empowering WomenI wondered how JJ, a tech industry leader, pivoted her career to become a coach and speaker for career women. She told me it wasn’t part of her plan, but instead came about through a bit of desperation.

Women have so much marketed and promised to us with the idea that if you just keep going it will all come together. But for her, it all fell apart!

She had her children in her 30s and she realized that sometimes she lost herself in saying yes to things that didn’t serve her. So, she started pulled some women together to figure out how to get going in the right direction. Then she wrote it all down and share with other women.

JJ DiGeronimo’s Biggest SecretThis got me curious to know what her biggest secret was along this bumpy path to her current success. JJ said, recently she turned 50, and she can say that her biggest secret is that “The Work” starts within.

Society makes you feel you have to stretch outside yourself to get “There” wherever that is. She’s still trying to figure that one out. But many women have started to catch on that the dangling carrot just keeps moving ahead.

Until you stop and realize this is not a recipe for success and isn’t making me feel good. Where the hell is my joy? That’s when you need to regroup, figure out who you are, what you stand for and what makes you happy. All of that starts within.

Maybe this is why so many people are quitting or doing the gig economy as a result of this discomfort with working the way we have been for so long. The typical pathway has become intolerable.

Earth Energy Is ShiftingJJ pointed out that the energy on the earth is shifting and we are moving more towards the feminine. So things need to be shaken up. Is this working for me? Do I believe in that? Is this what I stand for?

She also admitted that she doesn’t do the inner work alone. JJ’s mom started taking her to Lily Dale (a spiritualist community near Buffalo, NY) back when she was 12! She returned back to her spirituality and many of the modalities from her youth to figure out who she had become in her life and career.

She has worked with the Enneagram, Human Design, and Gene Keys to name a few, all providing insights into what makes her tick. What other energy practices does she use?

JJ talked about ancient energy practices for women to tap into the earth and their own inner wisdom, and unfortunately many women have lost this. These practices are the tools that can help you reconnect with who you are and why you are here.

Connecting with WomenShe loves to connect with women with solid practitioners which she does through her online community TogetherWeSeek.online. This offers a way to get an additional level of insight with a trusted practitioner. Practices include Jaguar Sacred Dancing, Cardology, Astrocartography and many others.

Her latest book, Seeking, is a 12 year journey she’s been on, both working with practitioners, but also her own inner journey with 250 prompts to investigate.

The real work is understanding your stories. Are they hurting or helping you. YOU need quiet time to look at these stories to see what you are ready to release and what strengthens you.

A Buffet of Spiritual MethodsI think there is an endless buffet of spiritual methods, so it is important to choose something and go in deeper. There is so much out there to choose from and at some point you have to just STOP, sit with it, and let it all settle in.

JJ agreed. At one point she went for a reading and it seemed like the Tower card (from the Tarot deck) kept showing up. The advice she got and followed was to go to mindfulness training.

At first, she didn’t want to hear about it. But the advisor convinced her that is was a vital step for her. Things were falling apart all around her, causing her to look within. That’s why JJ is grateful for this advice.

Being PresentShe learned how to be in the present moment which changed her life. She compared it to our podcast conversation where we were having a solid exchange of energy. This is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

The magic happens in that present moment – to really be where you are at. You have to get out of your head and just be.

Often we live in the future, planning what’s next or thinking about how you’ll be happy when xyz happens. Or in the past, feeling filled with regrets or what did or didn’t happen or get done.

JJ also has a gratitude practice that she does through her today, noticing how things are going her way which is also a big help with her mindful process.

Shut Down Your Inner CriticGoing back to the stories you tell yourself, you can also call them the monkey mind, the gremlin, the inner critic. The point is your inner voice that holds you back and tears you down is not your true authentic self.

Dealing with that inner voice is vital to make sure t doesn’t ruin your dreams. Doing this also helped JJ start to hear whispers. I call this intuition.

For instance, she heard she should bring women together in nature, but had no idea what to do with that. Then, she went to one of her favorite energy practitioners for a little coaching who gave her amazing advice.

“JJ, build an event that you want to attend.” Now, this year she’s having her 7th annual retreat in nature! Getting that additional help really helped.

This is EXACTLY the kind of intuitive coaching I do with my clients. Helping career women or those in business become more aware of their own inner wisdom. Tune into your own authentic truth and get familiar and comfortable with it so you can trust it!

When you find a way to stop second guessing yourself that is the core of finding your way. That’s how I help so many people gain clarity and figure out their next step.

Also, JJ DiGeronimo pointed out that the spiritual journey is not a solo trip. That’s why it’s so helpful to find your tribe and get support. Each one of us, as we step into our journey lights the path for countless others.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with C.K. Kelly Collins, author of The Swipe Right Effect – The Power to Get Unstuck. Her journey to find happiness after divorce is brimming with suggestions and lessons anyone can use and learn from.

Total Life MakeoverAlong with her divorce, Kelly decided to sell her publishing business which was another key piece of her identity, along with being a wife and mother.

To do the hard work of healing, she embarked on a year-long travel sabbatical which allowed her to meet many wise people and enjoy a wide range of experiences.

She did date, and fall in love, but that relationship didn’t work out and she’s still looking for that right guy. But she knows much more about who she is and has done lots of forgiveness work among other types of healing. Now, she is well along on the path.

We talked about how dating after 50 is very different than when you are young. Since raising a family behind them, you can focus a lot more on how they treat you, if you have fun together, do you share the same values and have a similar life style.

The Swipe Right EffectNext, I asked Kelly about her new book, The Swipe Right Effect and to tell me what that’s about.

She started by saying it was a “pay-it-forward” book, sharing all the wonderful advice, patience and love she got from friends and strangers about healing after divorce and rebuilding her life.

As she traveled, she began a gratitude process, remembering all the advice and reflecting on how it changed her life. Every chapter tells a different story about where she was at the time of receiving the advice, what her friend said and then part of each friend’s story as well. They are all incredible women.

We also talked about how you might have a different friends for different reasons. Some friends just want to gossip, some might want to play golf or go to lunch, and some get deep with conversation that explores the world.

Choose Yourself – Take Care of YourselfThe Swipe Right Effect is actually about choosing yourself. You have to work on yourself and learn to love yourself again. Looking back, she came to realize how stuck she had been after divorce and she needed to speak to her single friends most to get the understanding she needed.

It is so important that you realize you have to have your own life, which makes you more attractive to me. More so than when you make them your sole focus.

From my perspective, the last thing you want to do is try to fill a whole in your life with a man. As a dating coach for 20 years, I can say that is a recipe for heartbreak and disaster.

On a dating app, when you swipe right, you are choosing a man you think is a good prospect. However, Kelly wants you to take a beat and work on yourself after divorce before jumping back into the dating pool. Very wise.

Of course she knows this now because she didn’t recuperate or heal before dating. She jumped in with both feet immediately after divorce. She didn’t take time to get to know herself again, think about what she wanted, or what would work for her.

Love Yourself FirstKelly highly recommends looking in the mirror and saying, “I love you ” every day before you date because you have to love yourself first. Louise Haye would certainly agree! No matter how trite it sounds, it is necessary.

I chimed in with the fact that you can’t meet the kind of quality men you desire if you don’t love yourself first. You just can’t fill any holes in your life with dating. That’s when you are not resonating at the frequency you want to attract.

First you have to love yourself, and create a life you enjoy. Then you add love and you are connect at a much higher Emotional Intelligence level.

Kelly points out that you have to learn how to reframe situations or thoughts, so that when you come in contact with heart wrenching reminders of what was, you react less, accept what is and have healed from it to be in a more neutral place.

Discover What Makes You HappyWriting down what makes you happy is a super simple yet powerful exercise that helps you lift your vibe. You don’t have to make a vision board with pictures, you can make a simple list of what makes you happy.

This is a dynamic method that helps you STOP thinking about the past and START thinking about the future and what makes you happy! This is an example of choosing you, vs. letting your power continue to leak as a victim who is angry.

You have a right to feel angry of course, but at some point, you need to work through it to move on to find yourself and happiness again.

Constant Change Is EvolutionThings in life today are constantly changing. We have to grow, move, and reshape ourselves. We have to pivot, change, and address new things that crop up in a way that is happening so rapidly today.

How many people live in the same house for 30 years, or one job or one relationship? Things are changing which can indicate you are growing and adapting! This isn’t something bad – it’s evolution.

Kelly went through a long process of forgiveness. She had to work on forgiving her ex. But she also had to find a way to forgive herself for saying in a miserable marriage for so long and looking back, wasted time.

She had to love and accept her for who she was at that time. And here I am today as a result of who I was then. This is an incredible step forward!

It’s Time For Adventure and FunEverything doesn’t have to be hard. At some point, depending on your situation and healing process, you can start to have fun and see things as an adventure. Creating a new life can be enjoyable and is very rewarding!

What if the horrible things that happen to you, makes room for something new and wonderful in your life?

This is where Kelly goes back to talking about her gratitude process. For example she’s grateful she and her husband had a good retirement fund so she could travel for a full year and heal.

Give yourself a chance to find what is good right now. Make this your practice, as well as loving yourself and forgiveness and this is a powerful recipe to get to happiness.

BIO – C.K. “Kelly” CollinsC.K. “Kelly” Collins was an award-winning publisher and owner of a hyperlocal new publishing company when she decided to get divorced, retire and sell her company and change her life.

Believing travels feeds the soul and grows the heart and mind, Kelly embarked on a travel sabbatical to write her book, The Swipe Right Effect: The Power to Get Unstuck. Her journey took her to Buenos Aires, Patagonia, Portugal, Span, Italy, Utah and the Grand Canyon.

Kelly grew up in Nashville but now resides in Rhode Island. This book is the first of a four-part series, so stay tuned!

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with Mindset Coach Michelle Sera about her book The 7-Minute Shift, and how to elevate your mind to discover the possibilities.

Blog post to come later today!

BIO – Michelle SeraMichelle Sera, author of The 7-Minute Shift is a Certified Freedom Formula Facilitator and Certified Happiness Coach. She’s also the founder of ElevatedMind, a company focused on helping people manifest their greatest self and highest potential.

The 7-Minute Shift is the answer to the very common struggle so many coaches, consultants, and business owners face: fear, doubt, and worry. For those starting or growing a business, getting out of your own way to succeed is the (only) real challenge. Michelle wrote The 7-Minute Shift for you.

In addition to writing the book, Michelle has spent over 15 years as a copywriter and marketer. Her work in the online marketing space has helped many 7, 8, and 9 figure entrepreneurs excel. Her words have made an impact on millions of people, generating millions of dollars.

Michelle grew up in the middle of nowhere. She learned to swim in the company of gators in the lakes throughout the backwoods of Georgia. She raced Dragon Boats off the coast of Naha, Japan, discovered the meaning of mental strength (or lack thereof) on Mt. Fuji, and raised two very impressive kids.

According to Michelle, even learning to fight Krav Maga blindfolded, from an ex-Israeli soldier, pales in comparison to the bravery needed to raise tiny humans.

On this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, you’ll hear about clearing energy with Alida Morrill. As an Energy Coach, she helps people balance the energy in their life and shares stories about clearing entities, clearing spaces, as well as your ancestral lineage.

Everyone Picks Up Unwanted EnergyAlida started by talking about how you pick up energy in your daily life without realizing it. This could be at a restaurant or when you are out shopping and it might not be the kind of energy you really want.

But the energy clings to you and then goes back home with you. Similarly, your phone and computer collect energy as well and she clears them too.

This energy weighs you down, effects your mood, and so much more. That’s why it needs to be released on a regular basis. Yet, so few people know this or do it!

Deep Energy Clearing MethodAlida created the deep energy clearing method that she uses today and it started as picturing an imaginary net. Over the last 12 years, she has energetically added many tools like Kevlar, which is bullet proof fabric, the Madagascar spider’s golden thread, and even Kryptonite.

Just imagine pulling any item through the fabric net to clear it. This is done mostly with clear intention. Over the years, she learned to clear big buildings and other large things by visualizing them as shrinking down to fit in the palm of her hand, and then clearing with the fabric net.

Alida teaches a Course in Awareness that incorporates 54 tools that is part of a spiritual journey. Sounds very comprehensive! She also talks about clearing your ancestral lineage as far as 25 generations back.

I clear home and office spaces with a traditional smudge stick, a Reiki symbol, my pendulum and prayers, which is a different but still effective process.

Listen to another episode about clearing energy here

Clearing EntitiesShe’s a grandmother, and her 7 year old grandson had a temper tantrum over not getting to eat a cookie. This seemed very strange to her and then she realized his grandfather who had passed was attached and bothering him.

Recognizing what was going on, she cleared his grandfather’s spirit and the problem stopped immediately. Her daughter asked her what she had done since the results were obvious and fast!

We also talked about older people with dementia who sometimes attach themselves to family members and how she encounters this often and clears it as well.

Clearing Ancestral LineageNext, Alida and I talked about ancestral lineage and how her clients frequently come to her for a clearing with their ancestors clinging on. She says this happens because many from your lineage want to be cleared as well.

She asks the ancestors for their permission before clearing, so there is no forcing or anything being done without proper consent. A definite and lasting freedom comes with these clearings.

How Open Are People to Energy Clearing?Living in the Bible Belt of the USA, I wondered how people reacted to her energy work. Alida said there was a lot more openness than you might imagine.

She gets referrals from many sources like chiropractors, nurse practitioners and more. The list is long for where she gets referrals and she feels strongly spirituality is on the rise in Texas. This was so encouraging to me, in terms of bridging the gap between the political and ideological groups that split this country in half.

Her experience is that many are reaching out to make a spiritual connection and investigating spiritual and energy methods.

Alida thinks one of the most important things you can do for yourself is to ground. She does this with a waterfall of white light, which runs down through the body and into the earth. She then brings the earth energy back up into her body. It’s a beautiful visualization.

As a dating coach, I created a pink light of love meditation for my clients which helped to clear their energy, shift out of work mode, and brighten their feminine essence. Those who did this on a regular basis reported fabulous results!

Alida has a wonderful FREE gift for you – 7 Spiritual Tools which come to you in seven emails that can be downloaded here.

BIO – Alida MorrillAlida Morrill is an Energy Coach with over 12 years of experience! She helps people create and maintain balance in their lives. She works from the client’s place of lack in their life, hears what they would rather have, and creates an Intention Statement that depicts this desire in great form.

Then, she identifies and removes all of the energies that are blocking the client from manifesting this intention. Alida worked in corporate America (in IT) for over 40 years and after retirement (which she now calls graduation) was guided to a secondary career using her spiritual gifts.

Born in Berkeley, CA, she lived there until 1976 when she moved to Texas where she currently resides.

In this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I share two personal stories about how intuition works in my business life. I just went through a difficult situation where I ignored my intuition, but then it kicked in loud and clear which changed the path I followed.

My hope is that you’ll learn to pay attention to your and trust own intuition when it comes knocking to help you avoid painful situations. That’s why I’m sharing what happened, so you can learn, grow, and take advantage of your inner knowing.

One thing you’ll discover is how to tell the difference between your fear and a warning message from your intuition, spirit guides, or angels.

Story #1 – The MatchmakerMy first story is about a local matchmaker who wanted to open a new office in the town where I live AND he wanted me to run it for him! I was beyond excited because this felt like a very lucrative opportunity.

I was struggling as a new coach at a time when coaching was still a relatively new service. So this request was like a God send. The guy told me he’d call the following week so we could talk about the details.

The thing is, he didn’t call the next week. In the third week, he emailed saying he was super busy and he’d call the following week. But he didn’t. In the fifth week we finally connected. But by that point, I’d had enough time to rethink this opportunity.

So, I told him that in the time that passed, I realized this wasn’t the right option for me, and I had to pass. He was shocked and tried to convince me.

But I had a strong feeling this was not a man for me to go into business with. It felt like when I needed his help, he’d be out of touch and unavailable. I didn’t want to be left hanging, not knowing answers to important questions.

Thank goodness I listened to my intuition! Five years later, all his offices were officially shut down for FRAUD. I was very happy to have missed out on that disaster.

Story #2 – The Coaching AppThe next story is the recent one and had many clues along the way that sadly, I ignored.

A coaching friend of mine told me the coaching app she was working for was having a job fair looking for new coaches. She asked if I’d be interested. Yeah! Suzanne told me she loved working with the coaching app.

I attended the job fair, applied for the job, and got the first interview with the sales manager. Steve admitted to me that he wasn’t being paid for the sales manager job or for the coaching he was doing. He said he was retired and had enough money. (Message #2)

I thought he had that spiritual problem of thinking no one should make money from doing spiritual work. But that’s not my problem because I know I deserve to be well paid.

I then had three interviews with the founder, Barry. Even from the start, I found Barry to be, let’s call it “odd”. During the job fair I asked him two direct questions about what he was looking for and he declined to give me a straight answer. (Message #1)

He seemed coy like a teenage girl. This frustrated me because I prefer to work with people who are clear in what they want and can communicate well. That was not Barry.

Not Every Opportunity Is For YouI asked Suzanne what the story was with Barry. She liked him, so I asked her why. Suzanne explained that he was kind and a good leader. Neither one of those meant he had any business acumen. Suzanne suggested that maybe this opportunity wasn’t for me. (Message #3) Another sign that I let slip by.

Yet, I pushed myself to see the good in him that Suzanne saw. Why do I need to be so judgmental? Again, this is me ignoring my intuition and giving myself a hard time for not being more open when I could have honored what I knew to be true for me. (Message #4)

For the third interview I asked Suzanne for some help preparing. She gave me some direction on how to answer a couple of Barry’s questions and then said, “Maybe this isn’t for you.” (Message #5) Did I heed the warning? Nope.

Then to my incredible excitement and joy, I got the job in early January and began the training. Many coaches started working in March and I was scheduled to begin in April.

Why I Finally Paid Attention to My IntuitionOn March 13th, Barry sent out an email saying that he needed our help to get 1,000 new year-long subscribers, and then the paychecks could start. WTF? (Message #6 – finally I started to pay attention!)

That’s when I realized he had no funding. Even if we managed to get 1,000 new subscribers, that didn’t even pay for one month’s salary for the coaching team! I was totally bummed out.

I asked a few friends/family members what they thought of the situation. Much to my surprise, more than one said I should give it a go to see what might happen. I couldn’t understand that.

  • Why would I work for free?
  • How could I work for a man who was so lacking in transparency?
  • Was he going to give back pay once the paychecks started to flow?
  • How long could it take to get 1,000 new subscribers?
  • And, if he knew this when he hired us all in January, why didn’t we start trying to get subscribers back then?
  • Why did he wait?
  • Why wasn’t this part of his training?

Communicating On The Inner PlaneRealizing I needed more information, I tried to talk with Barry on the “inner plane” using my intuition. I got a loud and clear answer that sealed the deal as far as I was concerned. You’ll have to listen to the podcast to find out what that was.

Ultimately, I can’t work for someone who isn’t direct and refuses to be honest and transparent. I don’t think he’s a bad person, but we are not a good communication style match. Suzanne was so right – this job wasn’t for me.

In fact, it’s not really a job if there’s no funding for paychecks! I wonder how long others will stick around to et those 1,000 new subscribers and hopefully get paid. For me, I quit, so I’ll never know but I’m OK with that.

So I could have realized earlier that this was not for me. On the other hand, I did finally heed the warning messages and got out before I started to work for free. So there is a silver lining after all.

New Group FormingI’m starting a new group in April called the Intuitive Edge Circle for Wise Women. In this group, you’ll learn a bunch of intuitive methods and how to trust yourself, so you can make good decisions and avoid painful situations that take you off your highest path.

We’ll meet twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays. There are other perks and you can learn more and register here.

Listen to Tina Erwin tell her crossing over ghost stories and you’ll get a completely different viewpoint on the after death process.

Tina’s focus is helping ghosts, spirits stuck on the earth, to cross over and complete the process of dying. This came about because she lived in a lot of buildings that were haunted!

When her husband was stationed in Italy, they lived in buildings which had been occupied by the Germans during World War II. When they came back to the states, they moved to Charlestown, South Carolina where Tina swears every building there is haunted.

One of the scariest stories she told was how a male ghost got into bed on one side of her while her husband was on the other! Tina couldn’t speak or move, she was so frightened.

Being around lots of ghosts, she had to learn how to handle them. Tina started reading everything she could find and researched the process of dying and what comes after death. Only the Tibetan’s prepare people for what is going to happen from what she found.

How to Help a Ghost Cross OverWith her research, and some channeled guidance, Tina created The Crossing Over Prayer (C). Spoken aloud three times, this prayer is said to speed the ghost on it’s way to the light and the angels who are there to help.

Even a new construction home can have ghosts because they come with the land. No matter where you live, someone was there before you. Think beyond the settlers and the paths they took across the US, the Native American tribes originally populated the area.

Who knows who came before that? Ghost can come from any time. They can be highly prevalent in a war-torn area, and she told a great story about someone walking battlefields in Europe, freeing ghosts all across the land as they walked through.

They can be highly prevalent in a war-torn area, and she told a great story about someone walking battlefields in Europe, freeing hosts all across the land as they walked through.

Ghost of ChildrenTina has crossed over children who don’t seem to know what to do or about their change of being. She told a wild story about a little girl ghost who followed her granddaughter home from school and ended up bothering her baby brother.

But all ends well! Tina’s method makes is all so simple. She swears anyone can do it.

Once a ghost is crossed over by saying the prayer, the healing can begin. That’s why theses ghost stories are incredibly different. They come with happy endings as the spirits find peace and the living do too.

BIO – Tina ErwinTina is passionate about being a Ghost helper: Teaching the Living to Help the Dead(R). She wants to empower us all to help all ghosts: this is the compassion we will want for ourselves, by using The Crossing Over Prayer (C) on GhostHelpers.com and in “The Crossing Over Prayer Book (C).”

When a psychic only connects to a dead person, the ghost does not receive the critical assistance they desperately need. Tina has studied metaphysics all her life, gaining insight into the mystical world of magic and spirituality.

The author of eight tools on metaphysics, her writing comes from an intense desire to know and understand the hard science behind the unseen world of action and reaction, combined with a sincere desire to share this understanding with other knowledge seekers.

Her life long studies into deeper meaning of events and actions were further enhanced by the experiences of a dynamic 20-year career in the Navy, working for the U.S. Submarine Force, retiring at the Commander level.

Familiar with the art of surrender? In this week’s episode, Soul Guide and Business Coach, Vanessa Broers, shares her story about magic, business, shamanism, and divine feminine energy.

Authentic and RealVanessa is all about authenticity and openly reveals where she is on her journey in life and business.

After I introduced her, she mentioned how “baked in” it is in our culture to look a certain way and appear successful. That means many people guard the real truth of their experience.

She said it was too bad I didn’t read a different bio for her, having to stick with this radical level of realness. Then we had a good laugh! This episode is brimming with laughter and authenticity, so enjoy!

Practical Magic for the EntrepreneurAs a soul guide and business coach, Vanessa insists that being an entrepreneur is one of the best ways to experience magic. To her, practical magic means you are in pursuit of material results but get them in magical ways.

This happens not only by your effort alone, but also with a deep level of surrender. And it’s amplified the more authentic you are. To her, self-expression is a major requirement of magic.

The reason entrepreneurship is such a potent container for practical magic is because it leaves you no where to hide. It reflects where you aren’t that skilled, as well as where you have insecurities and limiting beliefs.

Entrepreneurship is a neutral mirror that’s not trying to make you wrong, neither does it apologize for reflecting the harsh truth. When you see flaws and allow yourself to go inward to connect with the divine, essentially you heal as you become freer.

This makes you more fearless to do the work, and become more yourself. You also align with the synchronicities of life because you are vibrating the truth of who you are. This attracts things, situations, and people into your life for help and further growth.

There Are 4 Types of Work1. Outer Work that Create Outer Results – For example, if you want to paint your house, you buy paint and a brush and get started. This is where most people “camp out.”

2. Inner Work that Creates Outer Results – This is where you work on your belief systems on the inner plane to shift and get results on the outer plane.

3. Inner Work that Creates Inner Results – This is like therapy and healing. But what creates confusion is when people think inner work will create outer results, which is not how it works.

4. Outer Work that Creates Inner Results – This is where magic really comes into play using ancient rituals and ceremonies. Giving offerings to the land and being in nature so it can crack you open.

Learn about Shamanism and the Elemental Goddess

The Art of SurrenderVanessa has been doing this inner work and chugging along, doing great, creating outer success. Then out of nowhere, she had a financial collapse.

Her first reaction was pure panic, fear and bursting into tears as you can imagine. But within minutes, she went to her altar and prayed for help to let go.

This is the art of surrender. And she got a message! As a result, she felt totally and immediately liberated.

This is an amazing example of outer work that created an inner result. Going to the altar and working on the art of surrender. Think of the four types of work as a menu to figure out what other way you can create a shift and move forward.

It works like a road map because anyone can get lost at times. Instead of making yourself wrong, simply think of the four kinds of work to see which one you might have relied on too heavily. Then pick another one to try.

A Client Example of SurrenderNext I asked Vanessa for a client example and how this worked. She responded that several of her clients are also in the same boat of having the external world collapsing.

She tells her clients openly that if they want a rebirth, they have to be ready for the death of something to happen first.

Vanessa has a program called Permission Power Vision. Clients go to her boxing gym to create a huge somatic release. This promotes going deep into the emotional side of things.

The idea is to do the outer work by moving the body which creates a massive inner release (i.e. the art of surrender) to create the inner shift. The second day is a spa day, allowing your body do the inner work of assimilating.

Recently, one of her clients did the program and in one day she lost her job and left her relationship. But the woman remained strong and didn’t fall apart at all. She knew this was right and it was magical how these events aligned.

Vanessa asked her to do more outer work like ceremonies and looked at the way she wanted to create a new life. It absolutely takes bravery and courage.

We both laughed about how we thought finding the spiritual path would make our lives easier – ha!

Truthfully, even three years ago, Vanessa admits she liked the “woo” but wouldn’t consider doing these kinds of ceremonies. Today she knows that ceremony as outer work is a game changer.

How She Got Into ShamanismWorking with a coach and doing a Joe Dispenza 21-day body reconditioning program helped her feel a lot more harmonious. Then suddenly, rage appeared and surprised her. Her coach suggested she needed to work with a Shaman.

This began her exploration into Shamanism. Her first Shaman told her so many mind-blowing things, it cracked her open. She went deeper and felt that if she was going to really dive into Shamanism, it would have to be a calling.

One day she stood before her altar, and made a declaration to be cracked open to her full power and nothing less. The next day she went for a walk and came upon a single hawk wing on the path.

Listen to more on Shamanism and Intuition

She sent a picture to her new Shaman teacher Leann, who told her this is the hallmark call to the Shaman path. She’s at the very beginning of her official journey to becoming a Shaman. The art of surrender will be a part of this work.

I shared how the other day I saw two eagles perched high up in a tree on my morning walk. Vanessa explained eagle medicine is the essence of liberation of the spirit. And it’s the messenger between heaven and earth with precise vision.

We wrapped up talking a bit more about letting go and the art of surrender in a powerful way. Then she offered to freebies that you want to get!

ThePowerGift.com – This gift will lead you to the art of surrender. You’ll also find an invitation to her quarterly free event called Emergence – a half day of deep work which sounds amazing.

BIO – Vanessa BroersVanessa Broers is a soul guide and business coach blending the practical with the magical. She takes being real and authentic to a radical new level. Vanessa is set on innovating the hierarchy-based model in the coaching/personal development and spiritual industry.

Not trying to make herself look impressive, Broers is willing to reveal the real-time challenges she experiences to model what doing the real work looks like.

She’s not afraid to make herself look ‘bad’ if it liberates the people she serves. In her world, there is no ‘there’ to arrive at in the name of success – spiritual or material.

In this episode I welcome back Jan Stringer of Sacred Synchronicity, as we explore what it’s like to let go of the plan and open to following your intuition. When you are ready, you can let go and open the door to the synchronicities that show up all around you.

The Meaning of Sacred SynchronicitySacred Synchronicity is when you have enough awareness to notice that there are signs pointing you in a particular direction.

Here’s how this unfolded for Jan. Back in 2017, she was talking with a friend and mentor and suddenly the idea of sacred synchronicity came into her mind. The minute those two words came together for her, she was in love with the idea.

It took some time for her to follow through on this exciting thought. Let’s back up to tell you about how this all came to be. Jan has a corporate background as VP of Sales, but walked away because she felt burnt out and tired of checking her soul at the door.

That’s how she started her business Attracting Perfect Customers. She wanted to help people actually enjoy what they do and live their purpose inside a business. For over 22 years, Jan sold 100,000+ books by that name and ran a lucrative training program.

Letting GoThis concept itself was really ahead of the curve, thinking about having a soul in business and enjoying yourself. However, even though this business was her baby, she realized everything has it’s time and once again she had to let it go.

In 2022, things were coming to a close and September 27th, was her cancellation date for her customer relationship management (CRM) system (the data base). Coincidently, a friend told her about a three-week trip to Morocco and asked last minute if she wanted to go.

This was a perfect example of sacred synchronicity, since everything came together so smoothly to go on this trip. The pet sitter and all the last minute things lined up perfectly, and the day she took off was the day her CRM system cancelled.

And that’s how it works. When you are ready, the door opens, things in your life align, and you walk through to a new part of life. Sacred Synchronicity!

In her first book Attracting Perfect Customers: The Power of Strategic Synchronicities. This was all about being clear about what you want and you’re focused and have a plan, then you’ll have more opportunistic synchronicities. (Note: She’s listed as Jan Brogniez.)

In the meantime her husband had passed away, she’d let go of her business and now what? She heard that she had to let go of having a plan and find a new direction!

The Energy of Anything Can HappenWhen she stayed in the place of “anything could happen,” it all felt right. She could heal and tune in to discover what her purpose and passion were. This helped her make sure her intuition was aligned with all that, she was taking the steps, and allowing her guides to guide her.

Rather than a plan, it’s an experience. It comes with allowing her heart and soul to guide her rather than her brain and letting go, that’s how doors open. To me this sounds like Michael Singer’s book about his life called The Surrender Experiment.

This billionaire created his fortune without any plan. He just followed what the Universe showed him, which lead to owning a construction company that grew like crazy.

Next he bought one of the first home computers sold by RadioShack, learned to program, and developed the first software for doctors to track patient information and billing. He never had a goal of creating this fortune or any of what transpired.

Listen to Jan’s first interview about sacred synchronicity.

Sacred Synchronicity and the PendulumToday, Jan trusts her pendulum as her guide. She’s got a huge facetted crystal, maybe two inches in diameter hanging from a chain about 12 inches long. Now that’s a pendulum!

She uses this intuitive tool because like all of us, sometimes she can be influenced by her ego and get off track. She asks the pendulum if she’s on the right track, thinking of Sacred Synchronicity. In addition, Jan clears energy with it.

Here’s a funny thing. Now Jan uses her pendulum for dating! That’s one place where she can easily have blinders on, so she checks herself by relying on the pendulum. This is a great way to get a clear answer on something so emotional.

You can hear about synchronicities of love in this episode.

If it ever happens and there is it confusion, use this powerful tip to get an accurate answer. Say, “Access 100% accurate testing on all levels and dimensions.” Repeat three times which is the number for invocation. Then ask, “Am I clear for testing?”

The pendulum I use is from Damanhur, a spiritual community in Italy, and it’s created to be immune to your influence. I totally love it!

Four Doorways to WorkJan talks about the four door ways she works with: Love, power, intuition, and purpose. So, for love, most questions circle around meeting the love of your life, learning self love, and clearing blocks to love. This might apply to someone married or single.

Jan admitted meeting her twin flame and knew there was something intense and different about this relationship. She discovered this was a path to self love.

Next, the door of Power is about standing in your own power and finding your own sacred super powers. These are your gifts which must be found through experience.

Intuition is so important, and Jan always go back to trusting her gut. Your solar plexus – what is it telling you? She helps people learn to open up and listen to themselves.

For the doorway of Purpose, she goes into business and work. Everyone has a purpose, so to find your strength and value and have a better experience in life.

As the Voice of Sacred Synchronicities, she allows the words to flow through her and says that’s why she is on the planet. She also works with Energy Oracle Cards by Sandra Anne Taylor.

She picked a card for the listeners and chose Victory. The way to have more victories is to celebrate a victory every day. I love that!

In this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m speaking with Kelly Sullivan Walden, Dream Therapist, Bestselling Author, Speaker, Reverend and workshop leader brimming with wit, warmth and wisdom!

Hot Air Balloon CrashI started the interview by asking Kelly about her hot air balloon crash. She had taken a large group and her balloon went off course into a Mexican wild game preserve!

From her balloon, someone saw a zebra, then a giraffe, elephant and caribou. This was NOT supposed to be happening. They drifted apart from the other balloons, finally crashing and being tossed from the basket. Thankfully, no one was injured.

As Kelly looked up, she was next to a giraffe. She stood up, hoping the giraffe would like her and knew this animal has the biggest heart of all land animals. At first it sniffed her, then licked her head! She said she felt loved.

In the jeep driving back to the group, they saw lions just 25 yards ahead. What an unexpected adventure!

Kelly Sullivan Walden’s New BookIn her new book, A Crisis is a Terrible Thing to Waste, Kelly talks about her OGLE method for turning the tragic into magic. An amazing technique, she explains how the process is truly transformative.

As a dream therapist, people come to see her when they are in emotional pain. Her mission has been to find a way to help clients resolve these situations quickly. She wanted something thorough, profound and fast and she found it!

In her own NDE, she got to see that the magic of spirit never stops. It’s always there. Kelly knew there had to be a simple way to call in the magic to turn things around when you are up against fear or issue and everything seems hopeless.

She amalgamized a bunch of things from her tool box, and with the help of her guides, created the OGLE method. This works to repair your heart and get you back into the flow of magic quickly.

The OGLE MethodHere’s how the method works:

O stands for what is Offensive about what happened. This gives you permission to admit what was scary, mean or hurtful and express that. Just like the balloon crash, which was scary.

G is for Good. What good can you find about the situation? Her wayward balloon ride turned out to be a bucket list experience that wasn’t on her list. Seeing those animals up close was very magical coming from this trauma of crash landing.

L is for Looking Glass where the magic of transformation really starts to happen. Look at yourself and ask how am I like the person who offended me?

At first she blamed the balloonist who lost control over the drift. But Kelly realized she’s made plenty of mistakes herself over the years, which is why she needs to have compassion for others.

E is for Elevate to change the energy. You have to learn something, to create the magic. In this example, Kelly decided not to be a victim of this balloon crash, since thankfully everything worked out OK.

She also decided to give herself a break next time she makes a mistake. Shifting like this and taking positive action elevates your thoughts and vibration which is certainly where the magic resides!

What Kelly loves about the OGLE method is that it can change you and transform the situation fast, rather than dragging you down for a long time. Use this the moment you start to feel the downward spiral of emotions.

If magic is your birthright, acknowledge the tragic and heal, so you can move on more quickly to the magic.

Listen to more about transformation

The Dream Therapist – Kelly Sullivan WaldenNext, we talked about dreams. Known as the Doctor Dream, Kelly knows the ins and outs of dream symbology. I asked if we could look at one of my old dreams that is still vivid in my memory.

In the dream, I was looking in my closet for something to wear to a party but couldn’t find anything that appealed. Suddenly, an older woman appeared asking me what the problem was.

I told her there was nothing good to wear and she responded by asking “What are you talking about? Look at what’s in here.” She waved her hand and magically changed everything in the closet to gorgeous favorites! Beautiful colors and sparkly options.

In the dream, I still couldn’t chose anything and never went to the party, although I was totally amazed by the options . At the time I dreamt this, I was not happy in my corporate job.

Dream InterpretationKelly likened my corporate job to the boring clothes in my closet. Clothes represent an identity that you put on. My clothes were conservative and drab like I felt about the company. Also, a closet can represent something closed off and not available to be seen by everyone.

Next, when there were so many colorful, fun clothes, it represented a vibrant aspect of my soul I hadn’t connected with. It might have been showing me all the amazing opportunities that were in store for me, too. More lavish, soulful and vibrant.

Kelly pointed out that the dream is still alive today, so I can go back in and change the end. Give it the ending I want now. She also pointed out that it might have been showing me the colorful life that has become my future.

There’s been tons of research related to finishing a dream this way, or as she calls it “Dreamafesting” (like manifesting, but with dreams). Harvard Medical School and Chicago Medical Institute have done extensive studies.

When they scan the brain, there’s a certain synapse that fires when you think about a bad dream. However, when you change your thoughts and reimagine it, your brain literally gets rewired!

The Golden BuddhaKelly tells a wonderful story about a solid gold Buddha in Thailand that was hidden by covering it in cement to protect it from invaders. Eventually people forgot what was hidden beneath the facade and the Buddha sat in a crumbling temple. until 1954 when it was moved and it’s true value was uncovered.

A golden glint was seen through cracks and it was restored to the original beauty close to the 2500 year anniversary of Siddhartha Gautama’s (Buddha) death. The Thai people saw this as a miracle.

We are all the Golden Buddha because we are naturally shiny and gold. But in this world of suffering (as Buddhists think of it), people cover themselves up for protection and forget the gold beneath.

When something difficult happens, a breakdown can become a breakthrough to crack that cement. That’s how the gold starts to peak through! Trauma and difficulties can help us excavate the gold beneath and the true self.

At the end, Kelly talked about her luxury retreat coming up called “The Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste Retreat” in Costa Rica. The 5-day trip is in June 2023 and you can find details here.

BIO – Kelly Sullivan WaldenKelly Sullivan Walden is an international bestselling author of 10 books, an award winning dream expert and interfaith minister. She’s also a certified clinical hypnotherapist, religious science practitioner, speaker, and workshop facilitator.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, I’m talking about a super interesting reading for a past life returner.

What is a returner? Someone who has had many lives and returned to earth multiple times to keep learning, healing, and growing.

Past Life Travel GuideI really enjoy past life work and doing Akashic Records readings for people. Doing this opens your eyes and gives you a much higher level perspective on what is happening in your life today and why. Think of me as your past life travel guide.

What really got to me about the reading in this recording was a number of synchronicities and spots where I hit the nail on the head! I got deeply tuned into this woman, her past lives, careers, relationship with her father, and love interest.

My client is from Brazil, but she called from a boat near Alaska and that’s all I knew about her. At first she just wanted me to tune in to her without asking any questions. This isn’t my favorite thing to do but I gave it a shot.

Past Life Returner Has a Sailing ThemeI saw that she was a past life returner with many life. She was Mayan Priestess, doing ceremonies with plant medicine. I also saw her on a boat from Portugal, sailing to Brazil in the 1500s. She was also a pirate sailing around the Caribbean in the 1700s.

Then I got a vision of her as an indigenous shaman who had a close connection to whales from Alaska. This reminded me of the movie Whale Rider which was a right of passage for a young Mauri girl. An awesome film.

How Her Past Affects Her Life TodayTurns out that my client was on a boat near Alaska tracking marine life and whales! Ding – got that right. I assumed she was in the navy and had no idea she was a biologist and was fascinated by how many lives she’s had on the water.

Maybe you’d like a reading?

She also wanted to know about her dad and why he always seems to reach out to be closer to her while she’s at sea. But when she’s back home, he seems more distant.

This is partly because one of her big life lessons is to learn to be independent and so he supports that goal, even if it’s unconsciously. This is likely part of their soul contract.

This past life returner also wanted to know if I saw her moving anywhere, She’s been thinking about putting roots down somewhere. The first thing I saw was California but she had no interest in the U.S. west coast.

She asked about Europe. As I tuned in, northern Europe seemed possible, maybe Demark. As luck would have it, she had met a man from Denmark and was thinking about looking into going there.

The problem is he’s married. It’s an old story heard too many times by this long-term dating coach. A woman wondering when the married men she’s seeing will leave his wife. Not going to happen.

A Viking from DenmarkShe wanted to know if they had a past together. Of course they did! Listen to this – she was a Viking from Denmark, who set sail in the 800 or 900s to maraud over the British Isles, landing in Ireland.

In that life she was a man who had a wife left at home. But he fell in love and married a local woman. You guessed it – the Denmark man! (They had switched roles and genders.) Now married to two women, this was a problem for the past life returner.

Eventually he went back home to Denmark, leaving his Irish wife to fend for herself. This definitely impacts her life today with this man. The crazy thing about this is in real life, she met him on a boat in Ireland. Synchronicities abound!

There’s a lot more to this story but I don’t want to spoil it all in this post and encourage you to listen tot he podcast.

Learn more about a reading with Ronnie

Past Lives, Present MiraclesI also talked about a book I read recently by Denise Linn called Past Lives, Present Miracles. In it, one of my favorite parts was how the author says you can change things in the past using your mind to change the present. Her stories were exceptional.

The exercise sounded so powerful, I told my friend about it and we both gave it a shot. It was amazing and I share about a past life that ended with my head being lopped off and how I changed that tragic ending. This is a story that has lasting impact on me.

Enjoy the podcast and if you enjoy it please leave me a good review on itunes.

Domestic Violence SurvivorMy guest is an amazing woman who is a survivor of domestic violence and now coaches other women to stand in their power. Growing up in Boston, she was in a domestically violent relationship as a young woman that ruined her credit and left her at zero.

LaToya pulled herself together and wanted to go to school, but didn’t have the money. A friend suggested she get her education in another country where its less expensive. So, she got a job, saved up, and moved to Mexico to study. From there she went to teach English in Kazakhstan which was quite an adventure as you can imagine.

A Chaplain in the US NavyLater, she joined the US Navy and was stationed for a while in Japan. LaToya did a lot to heal herself along the way, both with traditional methods, as well as having a pastoral advisor and other spiritual help.

Having gone down this road to survive and thrive, she wanted to help other women do the same from a spiritual perspective. To do this, she got both her Bachelor’s and Masters’ degree in Divinity.

LaToya worked in a hospital as a chaplain for a while, with people who were suicidal, as well as victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

In the navy, there was a concentrated effort to battle against these problems. She knew this would be a great way to help people heal non-clinically, using spiritual tools.

Working in the Mental Health FieldAdding more tools along the way like Reiki and EFT Tapping. Sometimes she works alone with clients, or in conjunction with clinical psychologists, and often after a client’s therapy had been completed.

One of her greatest joys was helping women with these traumatic situations, and being part of their healing journey.

A Powerful Motivational SpeakerI also asked LaToya about her motivational speaking and the spiritual angle she incorporates. She said this country is be coming more understanding of how spirituality is a part of everything. We are mind, body, and spirit.

The idea of love, forgiveness, and being accepted are spiritual concepts as is the energy that drives and defines who we are as a human race and a people. Reconnecting with the energy of healing and transformation is also spiritual.

She focuses on personal trauma, but also the collective trauma of women that is lodged within us. If you experience self-sabotaging behaviors, think about what the energy is behind that. What story are you telling yourself?

Listen to more on healing trauma by clicking here.

It’s time to divest yourself from that identity, belief, and projection that was placed on you. This is not your authentic self. The truth is people are born with drive and positive belief in themselves organically from birth.

Learning to walk, fall down, and get up again is a perfect example. But somehow, somewhere, things change and women begin to doubt themselves. This is not the same with most men.

Disempowering Beliefs Are Not YoursIt’s a revelation to realize these disempowering beliefs are not yours. Releasing them changes everything. She works hard to help women release these adopted blocks that are not true, but are learned and part of the collective conscious.

When you combine cultural, societal, religious conditioning, and oppression that has been around for millennia, this is really a type of psychological abuse of the female identity. That’s where self-sabotage, indecisiveness, and low self esteem come from. It’s been learned over thousands of years.

For example, indecisiveness is a symptom of trauma and not trusting yourself. Ask yourself why you don’t trust yourself and discover what that is about for you.

Redefining Words Like Confidence & PrideLaToya shared several common words that have surprising definitions. The true meaning of confidence is self-assurance arising from your appreciation of your qualities and abilities.

Do you appreciate yourself? Where did you get the idea it’s bad to brag about yourself? This is not in your DNA. It’s been learned and put upon women to hold us down and back.

Here’s another interesting word – pride. The definition of pride is being able to celebrate your achievements. What’s wrong with that? Nothing! Yet, there’s a pervasive attitude about women who are braggadocios and need to be more humble. Men are not told this!

The definition of humble is having a low estimate of one’s importance. Why is that good? Who drenched women with this idea? Let’s think about the energy of this.

I Am the StormOne of LaToya’s speeches is entitled, “I Am the Storm.” She gave this speech at a gathering of the DAR (Daughters of the American Revolution). While storms do damage, they also help clear what needs to be cleared.

Beliefs, policies, practices, and laws that have kept women down for generation after generation won’t change with a gentle wind. It’s going to require a massive storm to tear this all down.

LaToya says you can become the storm that shifts, clears and tears down what needs to be changed.

Think about the eye of the storm – a place where there is peace and calm. This is where you connect with your convictions, purpose, and mission. That center and core is where you can reside and your behavior and passion are those winds that swirl around you.

A storm is just chaotic energy until it organizes and comes together. So, like the storm, allow that passionate, purpose, and true self to organize who you are and what you stand for. Then you are organized to be the storm that can make the changes.

You have been through many storms, but now is the time to get to the center of the storm, and become the storm you are meant to be. Then women can work on making tis change together!

There’s more that LaToya and I talked about that was so inspiring which you’ll hear when you listen to the podcast.

What is Trancension? That is exactly what you are going to find out in this latest episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. Wait until you meet Eugenia Oganova.

Defining TranscensionAccording to the Wiktionary, the definition of transcension is the act of transcending, surpassing something or passing over something making it obsolete. That is what we humans are doing right now as we transcend our old selves and become new and improved beings.

Eugenia has created the Transcension Method which is a system that allows you to create a multidimensional awakening, so you can move in higher levels.

Let’s just say these methods are super detailed, multi-layered, and densely comprehensive. Talking with Eugenia was a little bit like playing multi-level chess with Guinan on Star Trek Next Generation.

But there’s no question her deep understanding of what is happening with our energy today is impressive and has something to offer anyone who wants to participate in transcension of the 3-D world as it stands today.

Listen to more about ascension and expansion here

Soul Design and Quantum StrategiesShe has created something called Soul Design which takes a multi-faceted approach to assessing who you are and what you are meant to do.

Eugenia dives deep into looking at how your energy is set up so you can make the most of your soul’s plan. This is how you eliminate stress and guesswork, because you’ll KNOW what will work and how to building your business.

Sounds good!

Her well-developed quantum strategies and soulful business training incorporate masculine and feminine energies. You can achieve those 5-figure months you might only be dreaming of with these methods.

Not your typical business coach, Eugenia is clairvoyant and uses her extraordinary abilities to download information and support her clients in addition to applying solid business strategies.

Bestselling Author of 3 BooksTo start, we talked about her historical novel about ancient Egypt entitled, The Secret of Sekmet – Why Akhenaten Challenged the Gods of Egypt.

Surprisingly, at 10, I was fascinated by Akhenaten, writing a big report on this ancient pharaoh who completely changed the religion of Egypt, shifting the focus to only one God – Aten, the Sun.

What’s so amazing is that Eugenia has written this book from her own, vivid past life memories that are so detailed she recounts the scents present during ceremonies in temples that no longer exist.

Eugenia says this is an example of lifting a people vibrationally, so there could be transcension. But after Akhenaton’s death, priests angered by his dismissal of other deities chiseled his name from all monuments.

This book is now on my reading list. For many people interested in spirituality, ancient Egypt captures interest like no other earthly civilization. That’s also true for people curious about science and archeology. The culture has left a long-lasting imprint on the planet.

BIO – Eugenia OganovaEugenia Oganova is an international Leader in Personal Transformation with over 20 years of experience. In addition, she’s a Transcension teacher of multidimensional wisdom, elevating individual consciousness.

A catalyst in the shift into Sovereign Individuality and Unity Consciousness, speaks to people awakened beings. She says we are truly free to create the life we desire, filled with Joy, Abundance, and Creative Contribution.

Eugenia is a best-selling author of 3 books:

Mission Alpha – The Wise and Passionate You
Awakening the Harmony Within – How to Create with Spirit
The Secret of Sekhmet – Why Akhenaten Challenged the Gods of Egypt

She has taught her methodology and wisdom as well as taken people to sacred sites around the globe. Eugenia has been featured in over 100 networks and publications and is a self-made millionaire in personal transformation and conscious business.

Eugenia is the creator the Conscious F.U.T.U.R.E. Method and the Transcension Method. These systems allow you to create a multidimensional awakening, Wealth and Abundance, plus Quantum strategies with practical Love. In addition, you can create Sovereignty, Authority, Mastery with soulful Business training.

If you’re seeking a Transformation Coach & Intuitive Healer, who also does Reiki & Past Lives, listen to this interview with Melissa Oatman in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Transformation Coach & Past LivesThe first thing we talked about was past lives. I asked Melissa how she got into doing this work. It all started back in high school, when she began questioning traditional religion. That started her reading books on mediumship which also touched on past lives.

Then in her 40s, she had her main spiritual awakening and while seeking answers she found a spiritual teacher she really liked. Melissa had a session with this woman who had bee trained by Dr. Brian Weiss.

It wasn’t deep hypnosis; she was awake the whole time. Melissa saw a life where she died young because she didn’t ask for help and was trying to do everything herself.

There were several themes paralleling her life today including not speaking her truth, not standing up for herself, and not asking for help. So, having these sessions helped her to be certain this is REAL and affecting my life today. Whoa – that was really life changing.

These sessions lead her to the healing work she does now. It’s funny but at a metaphysical fair in her 30s, she was told she’d be doing this kind of work, but she thought the whole idea was ridiculous at the time!

But now, here she is, working as a transformation coach, doing past life work, intuitive healing, and more. Melissa will help you see a series of past lives during one of her sessions, if that’s what you want to work on.

Learning about Self-LoveMelissa has also come upon soul contracts and helped people with these situations, especially as they pertain to life today. Many times, family members and friends were also with you in the past and you come together to work on learning things together.

I was curious how often it comes up that people need to love themselves more. Melissa says it comes up in almost every session. She feels she attracts people who have this issue because she has worked on self-love herself.

Her book Beautifully Broken, addresses how this theme of self-love has tracked through her life, in her marriage that ended and with others as well. That’s one reason why the theme of self-love is usually present in a session, since people with this lesson are her ideal clients.

This made a lot of sense to me – the idea that we attract clients to share our own learning with. I have a self-love program called Time to Shine. Melissa also has a 10 day course on improving self-love. This was created as a way to kickstart the self-love healing.

She tailors sessions to each client, connecting with their energy and spirit guides before getting into the intuitive healing. She also creates personalized meditations for clients.

Forgiveness Is TransformativeWhat has been most helpful for your clients? As an intuitive healer and transformation coach, Melissa responded right away with forgiveness work. Not only forgiveness for others, but more importantly for themselves.

When you beat yourself up and don’t forgive yourself, it can become a stuck emotion that causes problems and discomfort.

That’s a hidden benefit of past life work in my opinion. Looking at relationships with people from past lives allows you some distance and that 100-foot view to see the bigger picture. That can make forgiveness a lot easier. You can also find more compassion for the people who might have done you wrong and for yourself as well.

Intuitive Healer Points Out Life LessonsWe come to earth to learn lessons and have agreements with other souls to accomplish this. So, when you take a step back and look at the lesson of situations, you can start to look at the facts and gain a deeper understanding of the situation.

As you explore past lives, you are more conscious of what you are working on now. It doesn’t allow you to skip the process, but you may have a better understanding of why things are happening.

Ready to learn about your past lives?

People often have to go through their life lessons more than once. However, you might find you get through it faster the next time, you understand more quickly, or you can stay calmer during the process.

I asked Melissa to share one of her an amazing healing stories. One that came to mind, was about a client who started out very negative and down on herself. She didn’t feel she deserved much from life.

Over time, Melissa noticed a lot of growth and progress with this woman. To see the change in someone as the weeks passed was so exciting and very rewarding for her.

I also love the “ah-ha” moment with clients and for myself too. That’s when a shift is about to happen.

Sometimes we hold onto things that just don’t mean anything when you really take time to examine everything. Then, when you let go, it’s really amazing.

Listen to More on Energy Healing

Melissa’s Upcoming BookNext, I asked Melissa where she’s going now and what she’s working on. She said the spirit has been nudging her to write about her mom’s passing in January 2022, and she started writing about the grief journey and walking with her mother in the cancer journey.

She hopes to be healing herself and offering healing to the reader as well by sharing her experience.

To wrap up, I asked Transformation Coach, Melissa, if she had any other message or wisdom to share. She replied, “Don’t be afraid to be authentic, speak your truth, and stand up for yourself.”

In today’s society, so many people don’t have your best interest at heart or the best intentions for you. That’s why it’s important to always honor yourself, stand your ground, and maintain healthy boundaries. Let people know how you want to be treated.

Love Yourself Flaws and AllLove who you are right now no matter where you are because this is a journey and in six months you’ll be in a different place. Love who you are faults and all. You’ll be able to look back and see how much you have grown.

Remember who you are and appreciate yourself, your gifts, and what you have to offer the world. That is the way to see all the good you do. You impact all the people around you, even if you don’t realize that impact. And a lot of it is positive. That ripple will come back to you. Kindness is never wasted.

If you are concerned about energy drains and energy leakage, discover some of the most common sources that cause them in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. Then discover how to stop the outflow, so you can turn things around.

Do You Have Energy Leakage?Everyone expends energy and also takes in energy every day and this is completely normal. When talking about your energy, the best thing to aim for is a good balance with more inflow than out.

What nourishes you is what renews your energy. Self-care, exercise, creativity, doing work you love. These are all methods to keep your level of vibrancy on the high side.

However, there are a lot of ways you can let your energy slip through your fingers. That’s why its important to know what kinds of things are likely to cause an imbalance to much much energy going out. Most often, energy leakage is the result of over extending yourself in one way or another.

Some of the energy drains I talk about in this episode are easier than others to identify and deal with. But each one can be addressed and shifted to regain your energy and balance.

Get a few quick tips to raise your vibe

What Are Energy Drains?You’ll hear me talk about energy drains are in detail and list several of the most common ones. You’ll find many to be obvious and common sense, while others might be a bit surprising.

Some are more physical in nature, but several are emotional. Poor health, lack of sleep, stress, not standing up for yourself, and unhealthy relationships – these are all prime examples of the way you might lose energy.

When these situations run your life, you will feel exhausted all the time. What you want to think about is how you can rebuild your energy.

What will renew your physical and emotional stamina? What will help you feel more vibrant and feed your soul? Figuring this out will make all the difference.

How to Stop Energy LossThen I move on to share why you want to stop energy leakage and how to do this. There are times when you can’t just change your circumstances, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t tools to help you cope better.

You’ll learn about seven different methods to curb energy drains and most of them are very straight forward.

Some fixes are super simple, like getting more sleep and attending to your health. Getting out in nature is another good option to rebuild your life force and vibrancy.

Another powerful option is to work on clearing your energy. I did an entire episode on clearing energy for your home, office and self.

Become Aware of Your EnergyOne of the best ways to prevent energy leakage or to replenish your energy store is to build awareness about your own energy.

Becoming aware of your energy and what is happening with it allows you to more easily manage it. The greater your awareness, the easier it will be to stay energized and live your best life.

This could be as simple as thinking about your energy at lunch or at dinner. Checking in with yourself about how you’re feeling, helps to build your awareness up. In turn that ensures that you can take action if needed.

Like with so many things in life, awareness is everything.

I hope you found this podcast episode helpful and put some of the tips and methods to work to maintain your positive energy flow.

If you are feel drained by your business or life and are ready to turn things around, consider working with me as your Business Intuitive.

Discover unicorn magic and healing at sacred sites with empathic clairvoyant, David Winters in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Star Seed LifeDavid started the interview explaining about his past life as a star seed. In 2010 he separated from his wife of 20 years and went to a Reiki healer and shaman did a soul retrieval with him reclaiming his traumatized and fragmented parts. The healer helped him recall a past life where he was hurling through space and headed towards earth. While this was puzzling, he felt a bit home sick, having left his home near the star Sirius.

Past Life in ScotlandAs he became more awake on his spiritual path, he realized there had been disruption on his planet, so he came to earth ending up in Scotland.

He learned a lot more through his intuition and hypnotherapy in 2018. David grew up in an ancient time on earth, cared for by giants who raised him in Scotland. He says the truth is we don’t understand all of earth’s history and the stories as it really was.

Recently, he returned to this site in Scotland, and did a healing ceremony in which he connect with his ancient self. Today, this is the work he does with clients.

In the fall of 2022, he went to the Isle of Iona where St. Columba built an abbey in the 6th century and David discovered a past life connection with this saint.

The two women with him on the trip also had past life memories of the island. They experienced deep healing from being traumatized in a nunnery there. People are drawn to take trips with him who feel a past life connection and resonance with the land.

Interested in having a past life reading?

Unicorn Magic BeginsI asked David what was the most mind-blowing experience in visiting scared sites and reviewing his past lives. He said it was this recent trip to Iona for sure.

St. Columba was one of the big three religious leaders in the 500s to spread Christianity in Ireland. The other two are St. Brigid and St. Patrick.

Interestingly enough, when David thinks intuitively of this Saint, a unicorn came to mind. Unicorn magic and unicorns are often considered nothing more than a child’s fantasy. Yet, this mythical creature appears in art throughout history. And for David, this magical creature is strongly connected with St. Columba.

Traveling to the Well of Eternal Youth, where St. Brigid is said to have visited, he felt she sent him a vision of a unicorn. This child-like, magical creature feels related to the youthful quality of the waters.

The next thing that happened was one of the women looked at him and said, “David, you are a unicorn.” Before he knew it, he met and connected with an entire herd of unicorns. Talk about unicorn magic!

David says the world is a magical, beautiful place. This message urged him to reclaim his childlike joy so he could experience magic and wonder. Now he’s driven to share with this message with world to heal our planet.

Childlike WonderI asked David what this childlike viewpoint have to offer humanity? When you see the world as joyful it becomes precious and you’ll be more likely to take care of it.

This reminded me of Zen and beginner’s mind, to approach the world with wonder without a lot of expectations. You aren’t weighed down by negative experiences, anger, and trauma that life comes with.

When you approach the world with wonder, you see possibilities and connect with moments of joy. You can feel gratitude for the smallest things, which is where the real joy of life is found. This is unicorn magic! I’ve been getting this message myself for a year now, just from different spirit sources.

Unicorns Set Up the Positive VibesDavid believes our world is moving in this direction – to be more joyful and childlike, fresh way of looking at life. This is where Unicorn magic comes into play.

They are skilled at setting up the energy before you reach a destination or event. For example, if he had to go visit his neighbors who have a contentious household, he’d send the unicorns first to set up better energetic conditions.

These spirit animals are big and come with high vibration and healing energy and that will shift the energy. David feels this is an example of childlike behavior and believing in unicorn magic.

Personally, I think this process is a masterful way to influence the energy. Magicians are known to send energy out in front of them, so when they get to a destination, everything is optimal for the work they need to do. I’ve heard this called “prepaving the way.”

How to Use PrepavingI’ve done this myself for something simple like taking a road trip. I see myself leaving my garage, then driving down the road, having a great trip, then returning home safe and sound. That’s an example of sending the energy out in front of you.

David realized he had also done this prepaving on other trips to Ireland, where he’d start his tours at a well where St. Columba had once been. He would call upon St. Columba to send out good energy ahead for the trip that was just starting.

This is setting up the energy to be the most welcoming, positive frequency. You could do this in so many ways, even for business networking, especially if you feel nervous about meeting a room full of new people.

You could send the energy out in front of you to be welcoming and productive for you and for the highest good of all concerned. This is not manipulative at all because you are asking for he highest good for everyone, by aligning the energies in a positive manner.

More Unicorn EncountersWhen he came back from Iona, he got a new url for his business, Spiritofthe Unicorn.com. David noticed there was a wine company with the same name, so he went to their site to learn about them.

Turns out, the company had their own experience with unicorn magic, as they had seen unicorns in the vineyards, setting up the energy for their success! How cool is that?

So, it seems this is the kind of unicorn magic is popping up around the world now, and David suggests remembering you can call upon these magical beasts and send them out in front of you too, to set up good energy.

How can you not be happy when you think about unicorns? They are so beautiful and magical.

We went on to talk about where David lives in Mt. Shasta, which is a fascinating place with written mythology of Lemurians and also faeries who visited the Isle of Skye with him. Talk about magical!

Hear more about Faeries in this podcast episode.

BIO – David WintersGrowing up as an empath, David was stigmatized for his sensitivity in an insensitive world. He studied microbiology for many years to learn what’s beneath the surface of life receiving a master’s and Ph.D degrees.

Then he questioned his commitment to science and wondered if there was a truer path. He began waking up to the hidden world, of life beyond the veil!

Developing his extraordinary clairvoyant gift, he explored many sacred sites and found his connection to the ancient people of Ireland and Scotland. The Bird Tribes, Tuatha de Danann and the Celtic Goddess and Saint Brigid.

Today, David bridges mystical sites in Europe and America with healing potential and liberation from false realities. His first book, “Where Heaven and Earth Meet: Stories of Healing, Magic and Remembrance” is due out in early 2023.

Learn about Feng Shui for Business with Master Practitioner, Kathleen Horvath and what’s coming for 2023 according to Chinese Astrology in this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Shipwrecked on a Deserted IslandThis interview began with me asking Kathleen about being shipwrecked on an island in the India Ocean! She’d been sailing around the world, working as a cook on the boat, and they ran aground on a coral reef and started to take on water.

What an adventure!

They decided to abandon ship even though the waters were shark-infested. Luckily, they could walk to what looked like a deserted island. The crew grabbed all the food and supplies they could carry and made it to the primitive island.

Their May Day call was answered and 2-1/2 days later, they were rescued from one of the Seychelles, a string of 115 islands off the coast of East Africa.

One great benefit of sailing around the world was seeing the different ways that people lived. What they wore and ate and how they built their structures, which was like her own personal anthropology exploration.

Kathleen feels this was her actual entrée to the world of Feng Shui. Being on a boat before technology, she read a lot and began with Shogun from the James Clavell series. (I loved that book!) This series introduced her to the idea of Feng Shui.

What is Feng Shui?We took a step back for a moment to define what Feng Shui is. My definition is how the energy flows and moves through a space and Kathleen said this was a good way of thinking about this ancient Asian art.

When Kathleen starts working with someone, the first thing does is to find out what they want to achieve to know the direction her work will take.

Next, she runs their Chinese Astrology chart to see what is trending. This touches on the person’s reputation, and how the stars look for marketing, and partnerships.

Is their work local or international? What is the full potential? Its pretty comprehensive and backs up if the person is able to meet their goal, supported by their astrology.

Kathleen Horvath also puts a client’s address into Google Earth to see how the home is situated on the property from the satellite view. Looking at the exterior landform, and what is all around your home, she can see how the energy comes into your front door. This is VERY important.

Tips on Good Feng ShuiOptimally, it’s great to have a hill behind your house creating safety and an open area in the font without obstructions. Good landscaping and trees can also add to the energy in a positive way.

We talked about my home and how my front door is situated. I have a support pole on my front porch, so she made a suggestion to place flower pots and plant something that grows up the pole as a buffer to soften it’s impact.

Feng Shui for BusinessWe jumped over to Feng Shui for business and I asked what should people think about in this arena.

Kathleen tends to focuses on the annual energy and does classical Feng Shui which uses astrology and the compass. You can turn your life around by following the good directions on your floor plan.

She looks at where the best energies are going to be present which changes every year. Your body is like an antennae, so you want to situate yourself directionally in a good location to enhance your vibration. How interesting!

Register Here for Kathleen’s 2023 Feng Shui Event

Improving Your EnergyWhen improving your Feng Shui – it has a two-fold affect. First, Feng Shui is used to improve power and money. In 2023, the year of the Water Rabbit, the south sector is very important.

The second reason you do Feng Shui, which is not spoken about enough, is that helps you energetically. Put yourself in the right position and you are able to charge up your personal energy!

The way to buffer the challenging energies is to avoid being in those spaces when possible. For example, the west is not a good space for 2023, so what if your bedroom is there? She says spend more time in other areas where the good energy is. That’s easy.

Focusing on the annual energies makes a huge difference. The world has endured a tough couple of years. Still, working with these principles, her clients have made progress and are moving forward, even though it hasn’t been easy.

Feng Shui for LoveNext, we talk about how I used Feng Shui as a Love & Dating Coach. I wrote an article about How to Use Feng Shui Your to Manifest Love which got a lot of attention online.

We also talked about what I call Dinner Date Feng Shui which is about allowing the man to sit in the command position. This is the seat that has a wall behind it and a straight view of the entrance which is the best position for power and protection.

This is a good seat for the man because he will feel more at ease and be more open to you. Something to think about.

2023 Predictions for LoveThe year 2023 is very good energetically if you are looking for love! Yay! On the flip side, if you are having an affair, you might want to end it before February 4th, because this year you are likely to get caught!

With a home office, get your compass out, take the direction of the room, and manage the energy of just that room. Ergonomics are also very important for good energy flow.

Kathleen even recommends putting your computer screen, which is like an antennae, into your personal power direction based on astrology charts. That’s how you dial into the most vibrant energy of the year.

What’s Important about 2023?In 2023, there is a seismic shift happening. Everything in Feng Shui is a repeatable pattern in cycles. At this time, we are approaching the end of a 180 year cycle, which includes nine, 20-year periods.

Now the world is moving into the last period which is a nine, and the element of fire. Right now, it’s on the cusp in 2023, so the transition is beginning.

What is period nine good for? Women in business, women’s empowerment, healthcare including mental, physical and emotional, technology, solar power, metaphysics, and anything to do with energy work.

If you are not in these businesses or industries, then target people in these industries as clients. A lot of money will be made in these areas.

For business, corporations that demonstrate how they care about the bigger picture, through their products, services, employees, customers, and how it all impacts the earth, will be more likely to succeed.

Kathleen says this is the rising phoenix coming from the ashes and ascending. Awesome!

Psychic development is for everyone! In this week’s episode, I’m speaking with Lisa Rusczyk from the We’re All Psychic podcast about her journey and how she learned to tune in.

How Did She Develop Psychic Abilities?It all started with her mom purchasing the Time-Life book series called The Mysteries when she was 15. In the book about psychic powers was a section on palmistry which totally captivated her. Lisa was really into this.

Then in her 20s, spirits started to speak to her and she worried she was a little bit crazy. This was hard to explain away. However, she was getting validation about the spirits she was seeing and speaking to from people, so she kept going.

Lisa also has spirit guides she works with and they started showing up around age 23. She’s been working with Sam since then.

For Lisa, her mediumship skills began when her cat Morgana died and started coming around in spirit. Lisa says her cat taught her how to read tarot cards and has a way of telling things to her clients that’s very well received.

She can also read your pets, although she admits she’s not good at finding those that have gotten lost.

We’re All PsychicLisa decided to start her own podcast We’re All Psychic to meet other people who are interested in the same stuff. I recently appeared on her show which was a lot of fun. You can listen here.

First, she recorded about six episodes which aired but then she let it go for a while. Then she met her co-host Misty Lohr. Misty had taken her tarot class and then said she had a message for her, “Pursue the podcast.”

At the time, Lisa was working for the platform Everclear, so she decided to simply ask them if they would sponsor her podcast and they said yes! She also asked if she could interview other psychics which they agreed to.

Lisa was so excited! This access gave her the ability to speak with some very talented psychics and healers which has been a lot of fun.

Psychic Development and MediumshipOne guest that stands out is Bee Woo. She’s a screen writer who writes comedy, she lives in New York as well as evidential mediumship and psychic work. Bee invited Lisa and Misty to her psychic and mediumship circles, so they could observe conducted on zoom.

There might be six in the group and people wait to get visuals and say what they see out loud. Then if it makes sense to you, you claim it. This method of psychic development was new to her, so she was really glad to have this experience.

Whenever I go to mediums, my mom loves to show up. However, Lisa told me there was a tall man with salt and pepper hair, a bushy mustache, and a plaid shirt. She said he was with my father, but I didn’t know who that was. But he could have been another relative.

Lisa did connect with my mom, spotting her short curly hair and her love for gold and diamond jewelry – spot on! My mom told her that I make more of an impact than I think I do. Well that’s nice to hear mom!

How to Develop Psychic AbilitiesLisa works on a psychic hotline, does readings, and has plans to teach classes in 2023. She’s going to offer all sorts of divination workshops to get people used to using their intuition. Classes will cover oracle cards, tarot, psychic development, and mediumship.

Also, in her podcast, the most listened to episode is on palmistry, so they’ll be teaching that as well, plus using the pendulum, and last but not least, magic classes. Now you have lots of ways to learn psychic development!

If you are interested, go to her website and fill out the poll on which classes you’d like to take and she’ll notify you when they are scheduled.

Lisa and I agree that we ventured into the spiritual world to work on our lives and do personal and spiritual development. That’s one of the best reasons to start your own journey.

BIO – Lisa RusczykLisa Rusczyk is a cohost of the podcast We’re All Psychic, with cohost Misty Lohr. She started the podcast to meet more people and to help teach others about the Mysteries of energy work. Her goal is to bring more happiness and love into each person’s life by offering the wisdom of ourselves and our guests.

In this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast, you’ll hear a fascinating tale about the origins of Santa.

You Won’t Believe Who Santa Really Was!This encore presentation from 2021 will open your eyes to legends and lore about the origins of Santa. As you discover how the idea was borrowed from indigenous people in the northern most areas of the globe, you’ll be amazed at where all the details came from.

From Nordic lands to Russian and Mongolia, ancient peoples welcomed a Goddess who flew her sleigh across the sky. She did this on the darkest day of the year at the time of the Winter Solstice to bring the sun back to earth .

Better still, find out how the reindeer that flew her sleigh into the night sky were all female! One of the most interesting facts is that only the doe keeps her antlers during the cold winter months. Forget Donner and Blitzen, and think Heather and Heidi.

Why the Church Turned Santa into a Jolly ManIt’s time to give the female shamans and deer credit for this celebration. What once honored the Deer Mother and the cycles of the year, shifted to a male dominated Christmas story hundreds of years ago.

Why you ask? It was all in an effort to woo and convert Pagans to Christianity.

Learn about how female shamans connected with the Deer Mother for the good of the people. We’ll explore lore, legends, and ancient rituals traditionally lead by women to celebrate a Happy Winter Solstice.

Honoring the Deer Mother harkens back to a time when the earth was much colder and reindeer were far more common.

Siberian legends include the deer and the shamans using the red and white psychedelic mushrooms to journey. They went to the upper levels where they communed with the Gods.

This is one reason Santa and reindeer are associated with red and white designs.

Tracing Santa Through Art HistoryTraditions have been traced back through art including rustic symbols and drawings. The art shows a reverence for the life-giving deer that provided sustenance including milk, fur, clothing, etc.

I was thrilled to find this story last year and thought I would share it again in 2022, to help more people discover this surprising bit of pre-history.

Here’s my complete post from last year with amazing photos, originally published by Danielle Prohom Olson on her incredible blog GatherVictoria.com.

Her headline read:

Doe, A Deer, A Female Reindeer: The Spirit of Winter Solstice (2021)Happy Winter Solstice!

Ready to learn about soul mates, karma, and reincarnation? Dr. Andrea Shakarian and I talk about her unique way of uncovering past lives in this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

Discovering Soul Mates and Past LivesDr. Andrea Shakarian is a chiropractor and certified hypnotherapist who has a keen interest and skill at uncovering past lives for her patients.

However, her method is rather unique. She uses her chiropractic skill of muscle testing to reveal and pin point the place and timing of a specific past life. How cool is that?

Since she was a young child, Andrea dabbled in the spirit world. Her family openly talked about having conversations with angels and spirits.

Dr. Brian Weiss Got Her StartedYears ago she heard Dr. Brian Weiss talk about past lives on the Oprah show. That got her started. Then she spirits started communicating during her dreams and sometimes provided messages for to deliver to other people as well.

Andrea has always loved the idea of having a soul mate – it seems so romantic and this is how she got into learning about soul mates and twin flames.

She felt she could recognize people on a soul level. We often reincarnate with a group of people which is part of our “soul family”.

However, soul mates and past lives aren’t always romantic and twin flames are frequently the most difficult relationships going because you are working with a specific lesson.

You’ll learn a lot but it won’t be easy and there are times when this is not a lasting or healthy connection. The point might be about healing and ascending, rather than enjoyment, which pretty much sums up soul mates, karma, and reincarnation.

We Are All OneDr. Shakarian has also studied Zen Buddhism and the concept that we are all one and she talks about how this factors into your relationships as well.

According to the Kabbalah, we are all one, and originally, we were sparks of light contained in one vessel that broke open and dispersed. Now we are trying to get back to the source.

Andrea did a reading for one client who had lost their romantic partner early in life and was devastated. The partner came through during mediumship to say that they’d be back again in this life as a walk-in.

That was a big surprise to Dr. Andrea, having never encountered that before, and she hesitated to convey that message. But she did. The spirit insisted her client would recognize their soul when it comes back.

I mentioned how this sounded a little bit like the movie Heaven Can Wait with Warren Beatty and Julie Christie which is one of my all time favorites – an oldie but goodie!

Soul Mates, Karma, and ReincarnationA couple came to Andrea struggling with a control issue and wanted help to understand where this was coming from. Through her muscle-testing method, Dr. Andrea discovered a past life in the ancient Mediterranean area.

One had been royalty and the other had been a servant, and they were having a forbidden love affair. Then there was betrayal and a murder attempt which was all very brutal. Bringing this to light was very healing for the couple.

Similarly, I did a reading for a woman who was having terrible fights with her husband who wanted to understand what was behind that.

I discovered she and her husband had been brothers in the Texas oil business back in the early 1900s. They fought like crazy after their father died because he had not created a proper succession plan.

Going back further, another life appeared where they were again brothers, but this time on opposite sides of the US Civil War. I explained, when you think about it, fighting in a marriage is not as drastic as that, so things between them seemed to be improving and we both laughed.

Ready for your past life reading?

Past Life Work Is Not Always PrettySome people think looking at past lives is going to be a fun adventure and great story to tell. While that can be true, the real purpose is to access a higher perspective about the lessons you’re learning in this life time and how the past plays into that.

It’s usually not a romantic journey with castles and unicorns. However, there is a lot much to learn and it can be incredibly healing.

Common Themes in Past LivesAndrea asked me what some common lessons are that I have noticed with soul mates, and past lives. We talked about:

  • Power struggles
  • Worthiness
  • Standing up for yourself
  • Taking care of yourself
  • Abandonment
  • Betrayal

Here’s the best thing about past life recall. Looking into your past with soul mates, karma, and reincarnation does offer amazing insights and can be very helpful when it comes to forgiveness.

If you see what you have done to others and the errors you’ve made, it can help you have compassion for that soul in this life for what they are doing wrong now. And also, compassion for yourself which can be HUGE. Keep in mind that you are witnessing your soul’s growth. That’s the point.

This doesn’t mean you have to stay together or put up with bad behavior or treatment. But these insights sometimes help you forgive which often can be the way to ascend the problems. Letting it go rather than holding on to hatred or your wounds, frees up your energy.

Akashic Records ReadingsAndrea and I talked about doing formal Akashic Records readings about soul mates and past lives and how the structure is great when you start out. Now, we have both simplified the process and just get to it, without a lot of ritual. But it’s important that everyone do this work in the way that works best for them.

15 questions to ask in an Akashic Records reading

Past Lives Present MiraclesDenise Linn wrote this amazing book that I just read called Past Lives Present Miracles. (I love Denise who is a prolific author on many spiritual topics.) She says you can change the result of your past life right today.

The author said she had conducted massive workshops with 500-1,000 people and they would do this together with powerful results. I’m not sure how you can mess with time, but perhaps you are just changing the energetic residue.

The conversation covered many interesting facets of soul mates, karma and reincarnation, so if this is your thing, you’re going to love this episode.

Curious about essential oils for protection, anointing, and reprogramming your beliefs? Listen to world renowned Aromatic Alchemist, Allison Stillman in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast.

I am a huge fan of essential oils and when I use them, I work with the emotional benefits that come from the plants, in the same way Bach Flower remedies work. My favorite right now is Green Mandarin which is all about pure potential – yeah baby!

The Sacred Art of AnointingLet’s talk about Allison’s new book, The Sacred Art of Anointing.

I asked Allison to explain what anointing means. She said when you anoint something or someone, you take a consecrated oil or water and rub it on specific spots, making them sacred and divine.

For example, you might take a drop or two of lavender and anoint your heart or the crown of your head. Doing this, you are declaring that you are sacred and divine and putting that out to the universe. As you go out into the world, you carry that with you.

We’ve seen this in ancient cultures and Allison’s own recollection is of ancient Egypt where the priests and priestesses conducted elaborate anointing ceremonies. Many of our modern day sacraments from religious traditions are based on these ancient rights.

As individuals, we lost the right to do this for ourselves because it became taboo during the inquisition with a deep fear of going against the church. This is true for anointing or using essential oils for protection.

Woman with the Alabaster JarIt wasn’t into the 1920s that aromatherapy came back to the world. Allison was one of the first people to bring anointing back through a serendipitous and magical experience. She recalled her life as an Egyptian priestess doing these rights. I got chills!

This lead me to bring up the book Woman With the Alabaster Jar which traces the belief that Mary Magdalene and Jesus were married by looking at art through the ages.

The author talks about the Bible story where Mary anointed Jesus by rubbing expensive oils (spikenard) on his feet. This book claims this was an ancient marriage rite of the time, while others say Mary was preparing him for burial. That’s a good example of using essential oils for protection.

Raising Your Frequency with Essential OilsAllison listed the holy oils including spikenard, frankincense and myrrh, sandalwood and Palo Santo. They have psychoactive properties inducing a visionary state which is why the Catholic and Greek churches burn the resin as people come in, encouraging a meditative state.

Placing the oils on the reflex points of your feet has an incredible affect on the body. There’s been research on a raising the frequency of the body’s organs by applying essential oils to the feet. So, that part of the story remains true.

In addition, the palms of your hands, the soles of your feet and the length of your spine all play a role of reading the energy and adding to your intuition. Allison pointed out the aura or electro magnetic field, is a vibratory field three feet out around our bodies.

Essential Oils and the Energy FieldIn fact, the Hearthmath Institute measured the energy from the heart to eight feet outside the body! With this in mind, Allison Stillman has a friend who is skilled at seeing auras, so they did an experiment.

Allison smelled frankincense and her friend said she had never seen this happen before but she saw the color gold come into her energy field. The only other time she had seen this was when looking at pictures of Jesus and Buddha that also had gold in their auras (which still remains for those who have this gift of sight.)

Smelling essential oils and putting them on your body helps to close up any holes in your field. This is another example of using essential oils for protection.

Essential oils impact not only kill bacteria and viruses, but also work on an emotional and spiritual level. Using essential oils to consecrate your body every day is the fastest way Allison has ever encountered to awaken divinity.

She has plenty of experience as a healer including a sound therapist, massage, energy work, and a Reiki Master. Nothing is as powerful at bringing in divinity and knowing the truth of who you are as essential oils.

Oils Help You Stand in Your PowerI moved on to ask about standing in your power. If you are connecting with your divine energy how does that relate to standing in your power? Do you make a connection?

Allison says absolutely! We are spiritual beings in a human body having a human experience purely to know ourselves in this way. In Neal Donald Walsh’s book Conversations with God, he talked about why we have suffering fear and pain in the world.

The reason for these negative experiences is that they provide contrast so you can value love, joy, unity, and harmony even more. Without the opposite expression, its hard appreciate the incredible state of love, unity, and oneness. Essential oils for protection keep you safe so you can lift your vibe.

Releasing Old Patterns with Essential OilsAllison studied for years with Bob Proctor and Joe Dispenza. Bob’s work is about getting to the bottom of old belief systems. He suggests choosing a goal that is beyond what you think is possible and focus on it.

Doing this helps you come up with new ways to manifest that you wouldn’t be able to see otherwise. Oils are the fastest way to access the emotional and behavioral centers of the brain.

Also, the amygdala which stores long-term memory, is accessible quickly through the sense of smell. So, it came to her that if you could combine Proctor’s work with essential oils, you could clear programs so fast in people!

The Subconscious MindHumans are run by programs buried in the subconscious mind that go back to age five. That’s when you came up with beliefs to survive this world of suffering. Essential oils get into the brain and awaken that subconscious awareness.

Next, use an affirmation said in a very specific manner, plus aromatherapy to establish new memory in that amygdala. What a powerful combination to clear those programs very quickly and create new emotional and behavioral patterns. Sometimes essential oils are for protection, other times they help you release old patterns.

Essential Oils Produce Amazing ShiftsAllison had a good friend who wanted to buy her first house, but this seemed entirely out of reach for her. They did a session and she wanted to buy a home within one year. Together, they did deep work, created the affirmation and the oil for her. Just four months later, her friend sent an email saying she bought her home!

Talking with Allison Stillman was powerful conversation about what is possible with essential oils:

  • Her method to manage her energy while working at a n intense corporate job for 6 years
  • How she works with a posse of angels that helped her with souls who passed during the Kosovo war
  • How anointing with essential oils for protection keeps your energetic body safe
  • How to call in your guardian angle to surround, empower and protect you
  • The Living Mind of God coined by Stephen Hawkins
  • History about aromatherapy, starting with lavender and tea tree oil
  • How smell affects memory and your emotional life

What a lively and expansive conversation with Allison! You are sure to enjoy this episode so listen this weekend.

Meet Lynn Robinson, bestselling author of Put Your Intuition to Work and popular speaker on the hot topic of intuition. She tells people how to tap into the power of their own inner GPS.

Put Your Intuition to WorkI just finished Lynn’s newest bookand totally loved it. It was jam-packed with so many amazing and simple examples of how to use your intuition on the job or your personal life.

Lynn’s whole business was launched by her intuition. She was working at an IT company near Boston and knew she didn’t want to do this “When she grew up,” LOL.

She was working with a coach and longed to be self-employed, wanted to do something with counseling people, and was fascinated by intuition and spirituality. Her coach was the one who got her started using the Law of Attraction, visualizing, and writing down her wishes.

Following Her IntuitionThen, a friend passed away and she went to his funeral. Have you ever had a situation when you intend to do one thing, but do another? She intended to sit near a friend. But the internal voice directed her to sit next to someone she didn’t know.

She wondered what that suggestion was all about. But then when the service was over, they started chatting and the woman asked what she did for a living.

Instead of talking about the software company, Lynn mentioned her idea of starting an intuitive business. Turns out the woman was a writer for the Boston Globe and wanted a reading!

Hear more about developing intuition in this episode

Intuition Launched Lynn’s BusinessYes, she wrote an article about Lynn Robinson, and that totally launched her new career as she got 500 clients booked from that one article! Can you imagine?

Lynn says your intuition can show up through an inner voice, a gut feeling, or a knowing about something. So, walking into the funeral service, she just knew she had to sit next to that woman.

A couple of things make this quite powerful:

  1. She heard something intuitively
  2. She acted on the message!

Intuition is a skill, so the more you use it and work it, the better you get at it. With time, your intuition may develop other qualities like a sense of calm or a directness of the suggestions.

Different Ways People Receive MessagesThen, Lynn Robinson asked me how intuition comes to me. I told my own story about hearing intuition and following through. You can listen to the whole story in the podcast but, here’s bottom line.

A candle fell out of the holder and was lying on it’s side charring my dining room table because I ignored the intuition I heard! Lesson learned!

We don’t all get intuition the same way – there are many ways that it can come to you including as a voice, a sense, a feeling in your body, or an image in your mind.

Here’s one way Lynn suggests to start to trust to your intuition for decision making. If you feel excited, interested compelled, that’s a good sign and worth following. However, if something brings you down, that’s more of a warning to move away from that option.

Don’t Talk Yourself Out Of ItOften people talk themselves out of following their intuition, thinking they are protecting themselves. But intuition will help you move out of your comfort zone, so while it may feel risky, it truly is good guidance.

I also asked my guest, “How do you know if the message is one of fear or intuition? Lynn’s response was so obvious – why didn’t I think of it – ask! Ask yourself what is the source of the information? Is this fear or is it a warning? Great advice!

Lynn Robinson likes to do intuitive readings for entrepreneurs. She has found that many are actively using their intuition, even if they aren’t aware of it or calling it that. They often keep pen and paper near by to jot down thoughts as they come in.

For example, while interviewing potential new hires, note down the candidate’s strengths and weaknesses, if they’d get along with the team, and if hiring them will work out.

We have much more knowledge within than we may be aware of.

Learn more about your inner wisdom

Fear Can Get in the WayGavin De Becker wrote The Gift of Fear which is a book about trusting your intuition. Lynn ascribes to the philosophy of, “Feel the fear and do it anyway.”

She admitted she was terribly scared at first, when clients started coming to her and she had to deal with imposter syndrome. But your intuition helps you grow, which is why sometimes it’s good to get out of your comfort zone.

I’ve been doing readings for over 30 years like Lynn, and on occasion I also still question myself. It’s natural. But when doing readings, you have to say what you get.

The only time you might not is if the message is something horrifying and then you want to soften it a bit. In general though, editing stops the flow of information and is not advised.

Be Open With Your ReaderWe both admitted that we really dislike when people play, “Test the psychic.” They won’t share anything, provide any reaction, or their body language is guarded. The truth is, the more open you are with the your reader, the better your reading will be. That’s how you get your money’s worth!

This is not to suggest that you should share lots of information before the reading – not at all. But you can say you agree, or what you find to be interesting, or how that has meaning for you. Or, that the information doesn’t resonate.

What you are actually doing by asking a question or providing feedback is helping to open the energy exchange, which allows your reader can go deeper.

Lynn made a prediction that I just loved! Think about how the coaching industry was just 10 years ago compared to now when many business have coaches on staff or hire on retainer. She feels the same thing will happen with professional intuitives!

Star Trek Was Onto SomethingThen we laughed about the intuitive advisor on Star Trek’s the Next Generation, Deanna Troi. Today, many of the tried and true methods of doing business are no longer working. That’s why listening to your gut or getting intuitive advice can help or build confidence about a decision you’ve made.
