Are you a Christmas person or a Honeko person? Chelsea? Well, 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.519 I'm a Jew technically, but I don't really know how 0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:45.360 to spell hanakah. I know that you can spell it 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:48.600 anyway you want it, and it's fine, and I don't 0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:50.920 really practice either. I have a tree and I have 0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:54.640 a hanaka minora. Oh lovely. Yes, but I'm not lighting 0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:57.160 candles by myself. I'm up here by myself this year. 0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.680 My family is not here how, which is a huge 0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:02.880 Victor three for me. We have spent so much time 0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.720 together in the last few years that when they started 0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:07.960 complaining about travel plants. This year, I just said, you 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:11.720 know what, everybody, let's just let's take the holiday to 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:16.959 ourselves and reflect. That's awesome. Yeah, Brad and I are 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.520 also not traveling this Christmas for the first time in 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:25.080 many years, and I am so pleased about it. It's great. Yeah. 0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.720 I'm like, it's our first time in our new home 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:31.520 for Christmas, and we've got our tree and my parents 0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:33.399 are actually going to come visit a couple of days 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:37.840 after Christmas, so it'll still feel Christmas. Ee nice nice, perfect. Yeah, 0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:40.600 and you're in your new home with your new little doggie. Yes, 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:46.160 our new little puppy, Wendel benye myrbles. That's really something 0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:49.840 I hope Wendel teaches you about hard boiled eggs. Oh 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:54.200 he has men. Those puppy farts are poisonous, disgusting. That's 0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:56.320 what you're doing when you're bringing hard boiled eggs onto 0:01:56.320 --> 0:02:00.080 a plane. You're bringing puppy farts in a bottle. I know, 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.520 I really need to rethink my life, Joyce. Yeah, yeah, 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:05.960 this is at this perfect time. We just needed somebody 0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:08.160 to confront you. I'm going to stay home for the 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:17.040 holidays and reflect, yeah, and repent. Actually, yes, Chelsea, I 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.000 have an update from one of our Actually this is 0:02:20.080 --> 0:02:21.960 just from a listener, but it was so charming and 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:25.480 delightful I had to read it. This is from Claire. 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:29.600 She's in Manchester, England. She says, Hi, Chelsea and Catherine, 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.240 I'm a bottle of wine deep, so buckle up, kids. 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:33.919 I thought she was going to say she's a bottom. 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:38.680 I'm like, aren't we all? Yeah? I mean I actually were. 0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:44.000 I first heard Chelsea on Glenn and Doyle's podcast and 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.720 absolutely loved the way she talked about her breakup and 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:49.040 how she just sounded like she had her ship together. 0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:52.080 Then I went down a rabbit hole and listened to 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:55.160 every single episode of the podcast and felt very deeply 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:58.440 in love with you both and your amazing advice. Also, 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.919 the little breadcrumbs of Brad's voice every now and then 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.800 is genius. That was cute. I have now listened to 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:08.120 every Chelsea Handler book, which I learn apart from the 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.640 one she didn't read herself, But that says more about 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:15.640 my selfishness than anything else were mine. I just wanted 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.040 to tell you that I'm now in therapy. I have 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:21.000 a psilocybin, bar of chocolate and root, and I'm ever 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.080 so slightly codependent on you both. I have looked into 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:27.000 myself more than ever before and am able to forgive 0:03:27.000 --> 0:03:30.040 myself and protect myself more now because of you two. 0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:34.440 Thank you, thank you, thank you. Claire. Oh my god, Claire, 0:03:34.639 --> 0:03:37.400 Hi Claire, that's so sweet. Thank you for writing that 0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.560 letter to us. Sound nice? What isn't it nice to 0:03:40.560 --> 0:03:42.640 know people are going down wormholes about you and you 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:46.920 don't even know about. Yes, it's so exciting, and it's 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:51.240 just like this podcast is doing so much good in 0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:54.640 so many people's lives, and these little communities are starting. 0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:59.440 I actually have another very exciting update. Are they monkeypox communities? 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:04.480 Hopefully not. I'm fixated on monkey pots and I won't 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.960 get past it. Everyone else has forgotten about it, but 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.200 not chill. You know, I'm not me. I'm like, let's go. Yes. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.520 So we have like a whole pocket of wonderful women 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:15.840 in n y C. Who are like potentially starting a 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.800 meetup group, which is very exciting. Really a meet up 0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:22.039 group like for what like for we're fans of Dear 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:24.720 Chelsea and we're independent and single and like love to 0:04:24.760 --> 0:04:27.279 hang out and do fun things. Oh my god, I 0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.440 love it. I love it. That's like the theme of 0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.440 the special, you know, independence and single doom. I didn't 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:36.440 know how many women feeling to Yes, exactly. There's a 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:38.440 whole group of there's a whole swath of women out 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:41.320 there that need to be represented for not getting married 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:44.640 and having babies. It's true though. It's true though. And 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.760 you know what I was thinking about this recently. I 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.279 think something that you do for people, because you know, 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.600 we get a lot of emails that are how do 0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:55.320 I say this? Should I come out and say this 0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:57.720 to this person? I think what you do is you're 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.920 sort of, in a way their voice and giving them 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:03.880 this boldness and you say what you think, and you're 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:09.080 like not afraid to set boundaries or have difficult conversations. 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:12.360 And I think it's it's a really inspiring thing for people. 0:05:12.480 --> 0:05:14.840 It's like they can sort of channel your voice when 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.560 they have to have difficult conversations. Great. I would love 0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:22.320 nothing more than that to be my purpose in life. 0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:25.840 I give I provide a little bottle of bitchiness that 0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:32.840 you're lacking. I love that. I have another very exciting update. 0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:39.280 You're pregnant. No, no, I'm pregnant. Oh my gosh, Brad's pregnant. 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.280 Brad is pregnant. He actually he gave birth to our 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:49.640 little wend I know. So remember Anna who wrote in 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:52.720 a couple of weeks ago and was having some dental 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.000 work done and she was really concerned about the cause 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.840 and she was also having some shame spirals around all 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:02.200 of that stuff. Well, we talked about her go fund 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.520 me here on the show, and as of right now, 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:11.599 Dear Chelsea listeners have donated seven thousand, two hundred and 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:15.400 sixty dollars toward her goal to get her dental work done, 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:21.680 which is so exciting. It's so exciting. That's so nice, everybody. 0:06:21.720 --> 0:06:24.400 That's so nice to be generous in giving to somebody 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:27.359 a need that always comes back. I just had a 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:31.720 conversation with one of my relatives about generosity, you know, 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:34.400 and how it always comes back, and how it's so 0:06:34.440 --> 0:06:37.800 good to exercise generosity and practice it whether you have 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.920 money or time or whatever, like just not to hold 0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:44.000 onto things so tightly, and especially when someone is in 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:46.560 need and you can help them, it feels so good. 0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.200 And especially when you have a lot of people toward 0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:52.640 a common goal. It's like some people donated a lot, 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:56.120 some people donated five bucks, and it all goes right 0:06:56.240 --> 0:07:00.280 toward helping someone out. It's just wonderful. Just a couple 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:02.400 of things. People have said that we're really sweet as 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.760 well because they can leave comments in the go fund me. 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.520 May you continue to ask for what you need without 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:11.360 shame or guilt. Smile big Merry Christmas from a dear 0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:16.240 Chelsea listener. Proud of you. I'm so sorry you're experiencing 0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:18.920 this medical hardship, but you got this. I briefly hadn't 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.480 eating disorder many years ago, so I know how hard 0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:23.920 this is. But you came out fighting on the other side. 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:25.920 I mean, if this is what I'm talking about with 0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:30.160 community that's forming, it's just really exciting. How much money 0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:31.920 did she need to make? I mean, how much was 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:36.280 the cost of everything? Like? Her total is eighteen thousand, 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:40.000 and this number is just growing every single day since 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.400 we're talking about it today. We'll pop the link right 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.760 in the description again, so if anybody wants to donate 0:07:44.800 --> 0:07:47.280 that forgot too before or one and two before, it'll 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:50.000 be right there in the description. So it's all a 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.480 very happy holiday. This is great. I'm going to take 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.640 Burton Bernice's college tuition obviously, and just throw it towards 0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:59.320 this woman's day. That sounds great, that sounds perfect, both 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:01.440 of those two. It's aren't going to get into college 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.320 just like their mother, you know, not even a state 0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:08.320 at school. No, not even community college. You know. I 0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.720 actually went to community college for one semester, and it 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:13.960 was those were some of the best classes that I 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.400 took at any of the three colleges that I went to. 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:20.280 So I went to a semester of community college as well, Katherine. 0:08:20.560 --> 0:08:22.720 It was called the County College of Morris in Morristown, 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.280 New Jersey, and I went and I studied Russian history. 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.160 Very ironically, that was what I was interested in, and 0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:31.480 I guess that was a foreshadow to what was to 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:33.560 come in my life with my Russian sister in law. 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:37.360 And you're, you know, railing against Putin and all of 0:08:37.360 --> 0:08:41.000 these things. I'm actually so not surprised. That's like such 0:08:41.040 --> 0:08:43.760 an intellectual thing to decide this study. Well, you know me, 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:46.640 I'm such I'm such an intellect but you are. I mean, 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:49.760 you're like always reading, You're always doing your thing. Like 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:51.600 I just read a great book, by the way, that 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:54.480 everyone should read called The Great Alone. It's so do 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:58.000 you have you read that? No, it's really intense. I 0:08:58.000 --> 0:09:00.000 mean it's really about a subject matter that I wouldn't 0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:03.360 ever normally be interested in. Carla, my assistant, gave it 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.400 to me out a plane and I read the whole 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.240 thing and I was like, oh my god. It was 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:11.720 about well alone, nous and moving to Alaska and like 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:16.880 homesteading in Alaska, this couple family living off the grid, 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:20.960 and just how dangerous and scary and alone you are, 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:23.280 and like the end of the World the last for Tier. 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:26.360 It's by Kristin Hannah, and she's a very descriptive writer, 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:28.920 and usually that's not really my cup of tea. She's 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:31.200 like kind of like a female John Steinbeck, you know, 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:34.400 when there's lots of descriptive writing and lots of there's 0:09:34.400 --> 0:09:36.560 a lot of authors that do that, and I like 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:39.280 to write dialogue, so I'm always like looking for, you know, 0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.440 something more on my side of things. But it was 0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:46.960 it's beautiful. She's a really good writer, and she that's lovely. Yeah, 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.240 it's a big book, but it's worth reading. The Great Alone. 0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:52.120 Oh that's wonderful. And then I got home last night 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:53.240 I was like, all right, I need a new book 0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:55.320 to start. So I picked out some Rudyard Kipling. I'm like, 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:58.800 I haven't read him ever, probably, And then I read 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:01.120 ted pages and thought, I know why I haven't read 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:03.920 this fuck off? And then I picked up The Paper 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:06.679 Palace and how I'm a hundred pages into that, so, 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:09.959 you know, lovely. Yeah, I'm not reading for homework anymore. 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:13.160 I've decided not during this winter, especially when I'm writing 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.560 a book. I want to read for pleasure. Yeah. I 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:18.240 went through a similar thing where I just was like, wait, 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.800 I think I'm resisting reading right now because every book 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:25.040 on my nightstand is like some medical thing or some 0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:26.679 this or that, and I'm like, I'm just going to 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.719 read a fun be trade. So I just started The 0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:33.720 Beautiful Ruins and I'm excited. I'm very good. Yeah. Yeah, 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.040 it's nice to lose yourself in a book. There's really 0:10:36.040 --> 0:10:40.400 nothing quite like it. Yeah. Okay. So our guest today 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:44.640 is an author, teacher, speaker, and my favorite psychic medium ever. 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:48.240 She wrote the book Signs and The Light Between Us. 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.960 So please welcome Laura Lene Jackson. So happy to be here. 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:54.120 Thank you for inviting me on. I know you don't 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.160 love to go. You have a little bit of a 0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.960 travel situation, right. You don't love to leave New York. 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:00.640 I know you live in Long Eye, but you don't 0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:03.880 love to go too far away from home, right. No, 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:06.600 actually do like to travel. I just have so much 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:08.920 going on it's hard sometimes. But Oh, I thought you 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:12.600 had some sort of anxiety about like, oh really, Yeah, no, 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:15.640 I love it. I'm like, let me leave my family 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:18.520 for a few days. That's what I do. I even 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:21.480 have a family, and I'm ready to leave them. But 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.040 Laura's been integral many times in my life, like when 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.080 I've been going through a difficult time, because I am 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:28.680 very open to mediumship and I am very open to 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:32.040 psychic abilities. And I really feel that, as we've discussed 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:35.560 on this podcast various times, the more open you are, 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:37.640 the more you get to see, you know, and the 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.160 more closed minded you are at you the more you miss. 0:11:40.600 --> 0:11:43.440 And especially when we lose loved ones and that grief 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:48.439 is really just not even describable, it is so comforting 0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:53.000 to believe that those people are not really ever gone. 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:55.840 And I really have learned over the course of many 0:11:55.920 --> 0:12:00.240 years and a lot through our relationship Laura, that that 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:02.679 is so true and the more you are open to it, 0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:05.120 the more you feel it, the more the signs you see, 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:09.319 and the more comfort you gain. So I think Laura 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.199 tell us a little bit just refreshed people who aren't 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:15.040 familiar with you. How you came about to be this 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:18.280 person in everybody's lives. Yeah, so I didn't, you know, 0:12:18.360 --> 0:12:20.120 start out thinking, oh, hey, I'm going to become a 0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:23.360 psychic medium as my career. In life, I was psychic 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:25.559 since I was a child. I would see people in 0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:27.720 colors and I would feel what they were feeling. But 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.360 I just thought that was the way the world worked. 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:31.679 I thought we all experienced that, you know. When as 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:34.240 I got older, I quickly realized that's not so true. 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:36.360 And then I kind of didn't know what to do 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:38.880 with my abilities, so I kind of hid them for 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:40.559 a while. I was a high school in this teacher 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.760 for almost twenty years, and then I would volunteer quietly 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.720 on the side for an organization called the Forever Family Foundation, 0:12:48.120 --> 0:12:50.560 helping a lot of parents who had lost children and 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:53.439 we're in grief. It's a great organization. Everybody should join in. 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:55.680 Membership is free. And then one day I went to 0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:58.439 hall duty as a teacher, and I sat down on 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.320 my little hall duty desk and I got this huge 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:03.080 download from the universe, and it was like a seven 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:05.760 hour conversation in the millisecond. And they told me you're 0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:07.680 going to be writing a book, you're going to become 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.120 a speaker, you're gonna go do workshops, you're gonna and 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:13.040 this whole plan in front of me. And when I 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:16.400 get those download, there's no emotion attached. And I'm sure 0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:18.680 you guys have had that experience too, right, it's just 0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:21.200 this knowing. And is it like a voice in your 0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.760 head that comes to you. That's such a great question. Right, 0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:25.800 So it's not like a voice outside of me, but 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:28.560 it's almost as if I've had this really long conversation. 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.679 It's like an energy language. It's an emotional language. You 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:33.520 know how we all have subtext going on in our 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.320 own minds, like the narratives we tell ourselves and thoughts 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:39.360 running through So this these are thoughts that come to 0:13:39.920 --> 0:13:43.240 you rather than from you. You know, we all have 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:46.320 those experiences. I just think because I'm so open and 0:13:46.360 --> 0:13:49.200 tuned in, I'm really cognizant when I have them, where 0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:51.280 other people might be like, what was that and ignore it? 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.600 That's why. I also say, like, pay attention to the 0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:56.640 information you get, to the downloads you get. And what 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:59.120 I love too is I always hear artists and other 0:13:59.120 --> 0:14:02.280 people talking about getting downloads. It's actually this term we 0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.960 all seemed to use for it. So I got my 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:07.480 download and within twenty four hours I had a book 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:09.679 agent and I was going and remember coming home and 0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:12.360 telling my husband, guess what, I'm writing a book and 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.720 this is going to happen, and it just all unfolded. 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:18.040 I don't always get that much clarity for myself because 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:20.760 I think that's, you know, cheating. I'm having this human 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:24.480 experience too, and it's really important for me to navigate 0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.640 spiritually my own path. But when I do have that knowing, 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:30.400 I always honor it. And so that's what led me. 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.800 Once my first book came out, I tried to teach 0:14:32.840 --> 0:14:34.760 and do that, but it got a little overwhelming and 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:36.200 I had to make a choice. Did I want to 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:40.200 commit to sharing this knowledge with the world and looking 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.480 at the world is my classroom, or did I want 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:45.160 to go back to teaching high school English, you know, 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:48.600 in a four world classroom. And I quickly got clarity 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:51.720 that this was my highest path, which was a little scary, 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:53.840 but also I think it's so important when we have 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:57.280 those moments of choice on our own spiritual journeys, our 0:14:57.320 --> 0:15:00.920 own life journeys, to challenge ourselves to to riot, to 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:04.720 not make decisions based in fear, but to trust, to 0:15:04.800 --> 0:15:07.000 trust in the universe, to trust that we are all 0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:10.840 so loved and so protected and so very guided that 0:15:10.920 --> 0:15:13.200 we just need to tune in and honor that. Yeah, 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:15.800 and that's something that you really imparted with me. Also 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:19.000 on a more recent level, because I had filmed my 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:21.920 own special this year, my stand up special, which is 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.360 the best special I've ever done. You know, I've had 0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:27.680 the most clarity, the most upstanding work ethic for myself, 0:15:27.760 --> 0:15:31.040 the most commitment I've ever had to my craft doing this, 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.240 And I was selling the special. I just decided to 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:36.280 shoot it myself and then sell it myself because I 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:40.120 wanted to maintain ownership. And after I shot it, there's 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.080 a lot of interest from a lot of different places. 0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:45.040 And I called Laura and we It was also after 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:46.840 I broken up with Joe, so she was kind of 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:48.960 giving me guidance on that front as well. Because I 0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.760 wanted to handle myself with as much grace and dignity 0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:56.840 as possible, and she was crucial in making me level 0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.440 up to that. She's like, this is a soul test. 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:02.400 I was like, body and I had another one. She's like, 0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.200 you must operate this way. I'm like, I'll do whatever 0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:08.680 you say anyway. I when I was talking to Laura 0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:12.480 about that, about my breakup and about she said, let's 0:16:12.480 --> 0:16:14.560 talk about career stuff. There's a lot of exciting things 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:16.800 that are about to happen. You're about to, you know, 0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:18.600 sell the special. And I was like, well, where am 0:16:18.640 --> 0:16:21.320 I going to sell it? And she's like, I see Netflix. 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:23.680 And I was like, at this point, now I wasn't 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:27.080 even in conversation with Netflix because I had interest from 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:30.360 three other places. Netflix had a full slate of comedy specials. 0:16:30.360 --> 0:16:33.240 They were saying they were closed, that they couldn't afford me. 0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:35.920 You know, the market had changed, blah blah blah. They 0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:38.560 weren't even looking for specials, so we weren't even giving 0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:41.480 it to Netflix. And I said, I don't even think 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:43.320 it's going to Netflix. And she said, you're gonna have 0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:46.800 three offers and you're gonna end up at Netflix. She 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:49.520 said that about four months ago. At the time I 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.800 had zero offers and I had the Netflix hadn't even 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:56.560 seen it. And a couple of months went by and 0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:58.960 there was still there was like a lot of chatter, 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:01.200 but no firm off for from anyone, and I was 0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:04.560 starting to get very nervous, like, wait a second, where 0:17:04.640 --> 0:17:08.959 is this industry? This is my niche and media, Like 0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:11.600 I'm not getting any of the things that I thought 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:13.680 I would get here, Like I thought it would be 0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:16.480 an easier haul, and it was. It turned into like 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.720 quite a slog for me personally, for somebody who's used 0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:23.000 to getting a little bit more attention or respect for 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:26.480 my craft. I was very stressed about it. A couple 0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:28.800 of months went by and I reached out to Laura 0:17:28.880 --> 0:17:31.760 again via text and I said, hey, listen, I don't 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:34.199 have any offers yet, and I'm starting to get nervous 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:36.280 that it's not going to happen. And she said, you 0:17:36.320 --> 0:17:39.640 need to surrender it. This is already done. Just let 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.760 it go. You have nothing to worry about. And the 0:17:42.920 --> 0:17:47.920 next weekend, Netflix saw my special made me an offer, 0:17:48.520 --> 0:17:50.720 and then I texted her, I go, oh my god, 0:17:51.080 --> 0:17:54.040 Netflix just made me an offer and they wanted the special, 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:56.000 and she said, but do you have three offers like 0:17:56.040 --> 0:17:58.720 I told you, And I said, yes, I had three 0:17:58.720 --> 0:18:01.720 offers just like she told Over the weekend, after she 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:04.679 told me to surrender and let it go, I did. 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:06.680 I thought, you know what, if I have to distribute 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:09.639 it myself, then I'll do it. I had accepted the 0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:11.760 one thing I didn't really want to have to do. 0:18:11.880 --> 0:18:14.200 I didn't think that was how I wanted my special 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:16.760 to be delivered. And now it is at Netflix and 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:19.960 I and I'm like, oh my god, Laura. I'm like, 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:23.280 I'm never talking to a therapist again. All I need 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:28.879 is my psychic medium. And my asked my astrologist Jay Luna, 0:18:28.960 --> 0:18:31.280 who is also the two of you, if you guys 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.680 got together, I mean the world would be over or 0:18:34.000 --> 0:18:37.760 or would begin again. So that's my most recent personal 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:42.120 story about Laura. And I also believe that because of 0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:46.640 the length and duration of our relationship, I am more 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:50.200 aligned now to the universe and to things that are 0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:52.560 working in your favor, like the idea that you know 0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.800 what's not meant for you will not pass you. I 0:18:55.920 --> 0:18:57.560 have more of an attitude that you don't have to 0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:01.800 push so hard to make things happen. It's about trusting 0:19:01.800 --> 0:19:04.600 that the things will happen, you know. And I think 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:06.919 that's a big lesson for all of us not to 0:19:07.000 --> 0:19:09.600 push so hard and try to fit a circle into 0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:12.000 a square. Just understand that your circle is going to 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:15.480 fit into some patchwork and you just have to really trust, 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.399 especially when you have the work to back it up 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:20.359 a hundred percent. And you know, you said something so 0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:22.639 important there, and I think you're giving away some of 0:19:22.680 --> 0:19:25.360 your power, you know, to me, and it's not. It's 0:19:25.400 --> 0:19:26.960 not the case. This was going to happen for you 0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:29.200 no matter what. I just for some reason I can 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.080 really tune into your energy and read you really want. 0:19:31.200 --> 0:19:33.280 But the thing for you, I think it was a 0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:36.240 timeline of the moment you surrendered that then it would 0:19:36.280 --> 0:19:38.399 rush in because that was the sole challenge. That was 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:41.080 where the growth was taking place for you was trusting 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:43.400 and that trusting that your love protected that you are 0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:46.320 of incredible value here. I mean, you're a light worker 0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:48.960 through and through. And I don't know that you see 0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:51.840 that as fully about yourself as I do, because I'm 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:55.000 always reading energy and seeing energy. But just what you 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:58.640 bring to people like you shift people's energy and profound 0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:03.240 ways like laughter and joy and helping people laugh at themselves, 0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:05.680 laugh at the world, see things in a different way. 0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:09.200 You are reaching so many people that you can't even 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:11.320 possibly fathom. You know, one day when you cross and 0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:13.800 you do your life review, be like WHOA. But for 0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:16.200 now you're just gonna have to have a sense of that. 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.160
