Speaker 2: Welcome to Coast to Coast AM.

15
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 3: Nice to meet you, Hi, Thank you so much for

16
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:53,599
Speaker 3: having me.

17
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: This is pretty exciting. We were kind of talking, me

18
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 2: and the crew at Coast to Coast and they were

19
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 2: talking about the things that we want to get into,

20
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 2: and I said, I really don't understand twin Flames and

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 2: I want to know more about I feel like I

22
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: hear about it a lot. Actually, the last time I've

23
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: heard about it, Tanya, was when I was watching that

24
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: Netflix show Escaping Twin Flames? Did you watch that show?

25
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 3: The BiH that show, But I'll check it out after

26
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 3: our show.

27
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 2: It's it's not a positive thing. It's basically a couple

28
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: that ran a scam on people by charging them to

29
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: help them find twin flames. And part of the part

30
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 2: of the scam was like they would say, well, this

31
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 2: is your twin flame. You you've paid us for it.

32
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: You pretty much got to marry them. Are like, well,

33
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 2: I really don't feel connected to them. They're like, no, no,

34
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: that's your twin flame. You got to marry them. But

35
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 2: we'll get into that in a second. I am curious

36
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 2: to know, since we haven't met before, tell me how

37
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: you discovered your your EmPATH ness or your intuitiveness, bring

38
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 2: bring us, bring us all into that. How did you

39
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: discover that about yourself?

40
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 3: Oh? Thanks, that's a great question. I always teach about

41
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 3: the four Claires. I talk about intuition and psychic ability,

42
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 3: So just for people who aren't as familiar with it,

43
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 3: the four's or main psychic pathways are clear. Audience. That's

44
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 3: where you hear a gentle voice in your mind giving

45
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 3: you intuitive guidance. Clairvoyance is where you see images in

46
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 3: your mind giving you intuitive guidance. Clare cognizance is the

47
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 3: mental in psychic pathway where you have epiphanies, breakthrough thoughts,

48
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 3: downloads that give you intuitive guidance. And then Clsentience is

49
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 3: possibly the most common psychic pathway to have open, although

50
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 3: you can have all of them open or a couple.

51
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 3: Clare Sentience is the feeling psychic pathways. So all impaths

52
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 3: and sensitive people are very strong and clear sentience, and

53
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 3: that's where you feel energies and emotions of other people,

54
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 3: of spaces, of groups. You can feel and sense them,

55
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 3: but you feel them internally as if they are your

56
00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 3: own energy and emotions. So I have all the four

57
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 3: players psychic pathways open. And that's really how I got

58
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: into this work, is that I, you know, I had

59
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 3: psychic phenomenon and intuitive stuff happened when I was a child,

60
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 3: and then as I got older, kind of one by one,

61
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 3: these pathways started to open up for me.

62
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: In your experience, does everybody have one of the players

63
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: or some of the Clayers?

64
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 3: Yes, I would say definitely that everyone has at least

65
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: one of the players. And the interesting thing about intuition,

66
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: and this is really inspiring, it's not a static thing.

67
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 3: So if you're listening to this and thinking, oh, you know,

68
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 3: maybe I have one of those players open, but I

69
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 3: think that's probably all for me. It's very likely that

70
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: you at least have two that you have the capacity

71
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 3: to open up. And our intuition really can blossom and

72
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: improve and grow and strengthen over time, So it's not static.

73
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 3: So the more that you learn about intuition, the more

74
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 3: you practice it and play with it, you might surprise

75
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 3: yourself and have different psychic pathways open up for you.

76
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: Okay, before we get into the soulmate thing, let me

77
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: back up to what you just said. So it sounds

78
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: like what you're saying is you should listen to that

79
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: intuition because it's probably guiding you somewhere that you should go.

80
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 2: Am I hearing that.

81
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:22,679
Speaker 3: Yes, definitely. And your intuition is it's a GPS system

82
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 3: that we all have. Everyone has an intuition and it

83
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 3: really is there to guide you, just like a GPS

84
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 3: and a car, and it's hardwired to you and it

85
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 3: really course corrects just like the GPS and a car.

86
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 3: So if you make one choice and then you think, oh,

87
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,039
Speaker 3: my intuition wasn't really guiding me here. I wish I

88
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 3: could go back and do that again. Just like a

89
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 3: GPS and a car, it will keep course correcting with

90
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,239
Speaker 3: every choice and turn and bend in the road. I remember,

91
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 3: you do have free will, so you know sometimes in

92
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 3: certain situations there are a couple of choices that might

93
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: be positive for you or.

94
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: Work as a farmer, Like anxiety person, tell me the

95
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: difference between your intuition and maybe your paranoia leading the

96
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: thought pattern or the feeling being like, oh man, that's

97
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 2: bad news. That's bad news. But what if it's just

98
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 2: in your head? How do you know the difference.

99
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 3: That's an excellent question. I think that most people in

100
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: this modern age suffer from some degree of anxiety or

101
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 3: experience that often on at different times, and intense emotional

102
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 3: experiences like anxiety can kind of block or freeze or

103
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 3: shut down your intuition, not stop it or take it away,

104
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 3: but it'll be really difficult for you to discern or

105
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 3: hear or see what your intuition is showing you if

106
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: you're in a state of you know, really high anxiety

107
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 3: and panic, which can happen to people, and especially now

108
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 3: in this modern age where we're all kind of chronically

109
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 3: overstimulated at times. So the one thing that's really helpful

110
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 3: when you're trying to discern is this my panic? Is

111
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 3: this my paranoia? Or is this genuine intuitive hit or

112
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 3: download that I'm getting. Your intuitions will come to you

113
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 3: in a way that's very neutral, you know, so there

114
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 3: won't usually be any kind of emotional charge to it.

115
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 3: So often if you're say you have clear audience, that

116
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 3: that psychic pathway open where you hear the gentle voice

117
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: in your mind, the voice will always sound calm, you know,

118
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 3: so again you're it's just a way to illustrate how

119
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 3: the intuition it always comes in is a very neutral way.

120
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 3: It's not emotionally charged. It doesn't feel tense or anxious. Now,

121
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 3: sometimes you will really get an intuitive hit that has

122
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 3: a bit of urgency behind it. That usually happens to say,

123
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 3: you're trying to buy a house, or you want to

124
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 3: buy a house, and you're getting synchronicities external intuitive hits.

125
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 3: That's where you get signs outside of you, but your

126
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 3: own internal intuition is saying, oh that thing that someone

127
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 3: said that I overheard the grocery line or that movie

128
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 3: that I was watching and that one line stuck out

129
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 3: to me. You know, I think that was a synchronicity.

130
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 3: These are all kind of urging me to buy a house.

131
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 3: You might feel suddenly, you know, kind of a physical

132
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 3: emotional sensation of I really need to do this now,

133
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 3: I need to move on this. So you know, it

134
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 3: won't necessarily feel like anxiety or panic, but it could

135
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 3: feel like this strong nudge or gut instinct like, yeah,

136
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 3: you know, now is the right time to try and

137
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: buy a house, try and get a new job, go

138
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 3: on that trip. So it won't quite feel like anxiety,

139
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 3: but you can't have that kind of sense of urgency

140
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 3: with things.

141
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 2: So do you have an app or something? I thought

142
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: I was seeing something about a calendar that people can follow.

143
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: What is in that calendar when we get that?

144
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure, thanks for asking. It's a calendar that I've

145
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 3: put out with Workmen Publishing. It's a New York City

146
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 3: publisher that's now owned by Hashet. It's a really lovely calendar.

147
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: It's a page a day calendar, so you get to

148
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 3: know the fun of tearing off a different page every day.

149
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 3: That is a self love calendar. So every day you

150
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 3: get a self love message that I've written and then

151
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 3: an action step of how to use it in your life,

152
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 3: and you just it's really pretty. It's got lovely little

153
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 3: illustrations and you pull those off every day. So I

154
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 3: do have books oracle decks in the calendar about a

155
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 3: couple of different subjects. So, as you said, I'm a

156
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 3: professional intuitive. I give one on one readings to people.

157
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 3: But I'm also a writer and I love to write

158
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 3: about lots of different things, intuition, sensitivity, self love, and mindfulness.

159
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 2: I want to get into as much of it as

160
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 2: we can because I also feel like my intuition tells

161
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 2: me that you have the heart of a teacher too,

162
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 2: So as a novice to this, I want to learn

163
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 2: the difference between a soulmate and a twin flame. In fact,

164
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 2: let me give you a little background. I was talking

165
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: to my beautiful bride, Stacy. We just got married about

166
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: a year ago, and we were talking about thank you

167
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: so much. It seems like it took a long time

168
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: for us to find each other, but in our lives

169
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 2: we had lived in the same cities, even the same neighborhoods,

170
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 2: and never really found each other until, you know, maybe

171
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 2: ten years ago. So we always talk about, like, did

172
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: you go to this restaurant in Dallas? Yes, I went

173
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 2: to that restaurant. We were in the same places all

174
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 2: the time, but didn't meet. And she was saying as

175
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: we were talking tonight, when I was talking about having

176
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: you as a guest, she said, I don't know that

177
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 2: I believe in the soulmate thing, but I'm super interested

178
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 2: just because of our story is so unique and it

179
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: almost seemed like it would be impossible for us to

180
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 2: ever find each other. But it also seems like how

181
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 2: impossible it seemed that we didn't find each other sooner.

182
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 2: So take me into a relationship of what a soulmate

183
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 2: is and what a twin flame is.

184
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 3: And I really just wanted to comment on that relationship

185
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 3: you just shared. Rich That story that you shared, I

186
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 3: thought was so wonderful when you were sharing that you

187
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 3: and your wife, you know, had kind of been living

188
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 3: these parallel lives where you were in similar places and

189
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 3: in the same city, but hadn't met. It made me

190
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 3: immediately wonder if it was a divine timing issue. So

191
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 3: there might have been some divine timing of why you

192
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 3: didn't connect until you did eventually connect. And also, I

193
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 3: think the interesting thing that I would like to share

194
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 3: that I have learned of after doing thousands of readings,

195
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 3: as you said, with people all over the world, that's

196
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: a heck of a teaching experience. As far as learning

197
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: a lot, it's been really fascinating to me how much

198
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: of our lives can be kind of divinely orchestrated, for

199
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 3: lack of a better term, it right, And I think

200
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,679
Speaker 3: sometimes it can feel a little mind blowing, you know,

201
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: as your wife said, it seems it seems implausible that

202
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 3: so many people would have angels or guardians or spirit

203
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 3: or soul contracts, these benevolent forces that are weaving us

204
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 3: all together and are pairing us up and having certain

205
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 3: experiences happen. At certain times, it feels like it's incredibly orchestrated,

206
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 3: and I think it's hard for us to wrap our

207
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 3: minds around that. But I think after doing so many

208
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 3: readings that's actually true. So I do think that things

209
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 3: are way more orchestrated than you know, even down to minutia.

210
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 3: We then we would probably guess.

211
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 2: At the time those that connect, right, those that connect

212
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,439
Speaker 2: mean way more than maybe you pay attention to right.

213
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 3: Like synchronicities, having against overhearing a conversation, having a friend

214
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 3: text you at just the right moment, saying just the

215
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: right thing, having someone recommend a book on something that

216
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 3: you were just wanting to learn more about. All of

217
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 3: you know, seeing an animal on someone's T shirt that

218
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 3: is your special animal message or and a symbol for

219
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 3: you of something, having a number pop up on a house,

220
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: you know, your favorite number, this kind of stuff. It

221
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,079
Speaker 3: feels a bit wild that it could be so orchestrated,

222
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 3: but I think it is. At the same time, I

223
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 3: always like to really remind people that in my belief

224
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: system there's a huge amount of free will that we

225
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 3: have with our lives. So I think it's you know,

226
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 3: I think so many so much of spirituality are these

227
00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 3: two truths that feel contradictory, but they're both valid. So

228
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 3: while so much is orchestrated, I think and so much

229
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 3: might be planned out or might be, you know, there's

230
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: some conductor helping facilitate all of this. I think there

231
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 3: is also a huge amount of free will and choices

232
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 3: and even random stuff that happens, you know, when you

233
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 3: have so many people living in the world, all, having

234
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 3: a human free will, you're going to have a lot

235
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 3: of stuff changing on the fly and a lot of

236
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 3: things happening very organically. So I think both things are true.

237
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 3: Things can be incredibly orchestrated down to minutia, and there's

238
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 3: so many things that you can't quite predict or guess

239
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 3: because things really are organic and changing on the fly.

240
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 2: Okay, So before we have to go to break, let's

241
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 2: see if we can get the difference between a soulmate

242
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 2: and a twin flame. And then when we come back,

243
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 2: I'm guessing you have a way for us to set

244
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 2: ourselves up for the success to find the one that's

245
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: right for you. Right, you have probably a practice or

246
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 2: an exercise or a way to open yourself up to that.

247
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 2: So let us let us find out what is a

248
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 2: soulmate in what is a twin flame? What's the difference?

249
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 3: Well, a soulmate is just simply someone that you have

250
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: an agreement with that you have a strong spiritual connection

251
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 3: to your earthly kind of practical connection to them, and

252
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 3: it's something that you can feel, it's something that you

253
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 3: might get synchronicities around to reinforce, and it really can

254
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 3: just be a deep knowing that this person is in

255
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 3: your life for a reason, for a reason that isn't

256
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 3: just obvious. It could be someone who's a coworker. It

257
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 3: could be a romantic interest, it could be a pet,

258
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 3: it could be a family member. Some family members you

259
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 3: might feel a strong, much stronger soul connection to than others.

260
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 3: As far as the twin flame, that's a really interesting concept,

261
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 3: and it goes all the way back to Plato. Actually,

262
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: this idea that a soul can be split into kind

263
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 3: of two bodies or two beings having the same soul.

264
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 3: And then the twin flame theory or how it has

265
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 3: evolved in modern times is that you are looking for

266
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 3: that person who feels like your other half. Often the

267
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: theory goes it's a theory because these things are all

268
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 3: just theories that you know, it could kind of be

269
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 3: a yin yang thing. So they could complete you in

270
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 3: the sense that I'm really a pessimist and they're really

271
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 3: an optimist, and somehow, you know, we're catching each other's

272
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 3: blindside or we're complimenting each other. But according to the theory,

273
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 3: there's a strong sense of being very understood by that

274
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: person having similarities in your background, and again it's the

275
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 3: sense of a completion or feeling more completed or whole

276
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 3: when you have that person in your life. So, you know,

277
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: I think that that, again, I would say, is a

278
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: theory and I have heard of unfortunately, you know people,

279
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 3: whether it was that one particular organization or others. You know,

280
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: people can you know, take advantage of this kind of

281
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 3: stuff or take advantage of people, And maybe sometimes they're

282
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 3: doing it without even realizing it.

283
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 2: Maybe they Oh, you're talking about the you're talking about

284
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 2: the Netflix show. Yeah, that's a whole other thing. That's

285
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 2: a scary documentary, right, Yea.

286
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 3: The reason I was bringing it up, Rich is just

287
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 3: because I think we can all fall prey to lack

288
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:18,119
Speaker 3: of a better word, of getting too kind of obsessed

289
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 3: with these concepts good.

290
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 2: I wanted to kind of cover that because I think

291
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 2: that you get that romantic or you can be like, well,

292
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: there's some there's somebody out there for me, and if

293
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 2: they're my soulmate, of they're my twin flame, then no

294
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 2: matter what happens, we ride or die. But I'm sure

295
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 2: that you can be attracted to people, maybe even from

296
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 2: a past life or something like that that could be

297
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: just like straight up poison for you, right, so we

298
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 2: should probably cover all that too, And then before we

299
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,520
Speaker 2: go to break, give me a quick definition of a

300
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 2: twin flame.

301
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 3: Well, I think we just did rich. You know, it's

302
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 3: that sense. And again, this is a theory and it's

303
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 3: not one that I that I really subscribe to or

304
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 3: talk about a lot, because I think it is just

305
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 3: a theory, and it's not that it's a bad theory.

306
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 3: Some people love this idea, but I think there is

307
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 3: kind of a shadow or difficult side to it. It

308
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 3: sometimes sounds a little bit like codependency or you can't

309
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 3: be completed without this one person. And I do fear

310
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 3: that it sometimes sets people up to feel like there

311
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 3: is only one person for them. And I really like

312
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 3: to remind people that soulmates is a big plural, even

313
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 3: in the romantic sense. So I like to think that

314
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,959
Speaker 3: many as many chances as you want to take in

315
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 3: life and put yourself out there, the universe will meet you.

316
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 3: So I don't like to think that there's just one

317
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 3: person for everyone. And then I do worry sometimes that

318
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 3: when you get too into any kind of soulmate concept,

319
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 3: you can get so idealistic about it that you might think, well,

320
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: this person just doesn't fit that, so they can't be

321
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 3: the one, and you could miss out on someone that

322
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:01,360
Speaker 3: could be a lovely partner.
