1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,240
Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and welcome back to Coast to Coast George Nori

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: with you. Susanne Allen with us. An intuitive healer and

4
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 1: medium who began studying mediumship and mysticism and her late teens,

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: and she can connect with all life and soul forms,

6
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:22,119
Speaker 1: including animals at their soul level. She has been communicating

7
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: with animals on a deep soul level since childhood and

8
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: calls what she does soul Speak, a name that came

9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 1: to her through meditation. Clients from around the world have

10
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: benefited by her work, and she communicates messages about clients

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,480
Speaker 1: loved ones and pets present and past, and the information

12
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: she provides assightful and transformative. And later on when we

13
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: take calls, she will talk about your pet too, but

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: we'll tell you what she needs from you. Susan, Welcome

15
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 1: to the program, first time for you. I understand, yes, George,

16
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 1: it's so exciting. Thank you so much for having me.

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: How did this all happen? When you were a little girl,

18
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: I just remember my first little cat that came up

19
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: to me in the garden and it just was an

20
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: immediate connection, and I knew that this was something so

21
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: special for me, and it was. It ended up being

22
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 1: like that. You know, we lived in Brooklyn. You know,

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: we weren't a real big animal family of though we

24
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: had we had dogs. You know, we had a dog

25
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: at a time. And I just remember my dad just

26
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: intuitively new to take me to animals when i'd be

27
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: upset or you know, crying, or when I was super young.

28
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: He'd always somehow find animals to get me to and

29
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 1: it just became like a healing force for me. And

30
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: I just always I just always had this connection. So

31
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 1: when you look at an animal in its eyes, do

32
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: you know what it's thinking. I do. I asked for permission,

33
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: like I have an honor for my pets and animals,

34
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: And that's kind of how I started. I would just

35
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 1: send a lot of love, because love is the most

36
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: healing force in the world. It's love. And I would

37
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: just look in that cat's eyes or dog's eyes or

38
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: horses eyes, and generally I always did it with a photo,

39
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: and I would just send a lot of love and

40
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: tell it, how one tell this pet how wonderful it was,

41
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: and would it want to talk to me? And then

42
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,079
Speaker 1: it would just open up and the floodgates would sort

43
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: of open, and I journaled every single one of my readings,

44
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: I think for the first ten years. And I bet

45
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: when you were a little girl, you didn't think there

46
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 1: was anything supernatural about this at all, did you? Absolutely not? Yeah,

47
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 1: it felt normal, mommy. How Confido can hear me? Right?

48
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: I think kind of? Yeah. I think my mother always

49
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: thought I was a bit odd, but it ended up,

50
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, later in life, I realized that this is

51
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: how I feel the most natural, not all those jobs

52
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,679
Speaker 1: that I had or career paths that I went down.

53
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: You know, this feels like it's really me, and it

54
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: feels the most authentic. And tell us about the healing

55
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,399
Speaker 1: principles of these animals? Well, how does that happen with

56
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: animals when you're with them? Like, for instance, if you

57
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: have a pet in your home and a lot of

58
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: the owners will agree that they're having communication with them

59
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: because they are so the animal balances you. When you know,

60
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: when I do readings, animals come through and say I

61
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 1: got her through medical school and the person went and

62
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: they so, yeah, my dog was with me while I

63
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: was taking all these deaths. That's right. So the animal

64
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: is there to help you. It's not just that you

65
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: are helping an animal. The animal comes into our lives

66
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: because we travel in soul families. So that animal has

67
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: been with you in another lifetime and they come back

68
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: maybe they were in the other lifetime as a person,

69
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: but they come back as your pet in this lifetime.

70
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: And a lot of owners will even say to me,

71
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: I swear to God, I have had a relationship with

72
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: this cat before. I feel like I knew this cat before.

73
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: So my feeling is is that they're there to help

74
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: us as healers, and it's very, very important to have

75
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: these animals, and it's sad. I feel more. I feel

76
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: more compassion for the person that has to give up

77
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 1: the animal than the animal, because the animals and the

78
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: shelter feeling sad, thinking, wait, my job wasn't complete. We

79
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: didn't complete our mission here. We didn't I didn't help

80
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: this person heal. On that deep soul level, that's where

81
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: the disconnect is. I think people think I don't have money,

82
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: I have to move or this I have to get

83
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: rid of my pet. But there's a mission for that

84
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: animal and that person. It's a soul connection and it's

85
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,599
Speaker 1: very very deep, and that's that to me is the

86
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: sad part, you know, looking at some of these animals

87
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: on video from these animal societies, these animals that are

88
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,919
Speaker 1: in shelters and holding tanks and stuff, and it really

89
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: they really look sad, don't they. Yeah, And I feel

90
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:08,239
Speaker 1: the sadness is because more importantly, they come to us

91
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: to help us, and when we give them up because

92
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: of our own stress or whatever we're going through in

93
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: our lives, that we feel the need to let go

94
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: of this beloved animal, and it's crisis time when you

95
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: have to let go of a pet. Most of the time,

96
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: I would feel like I would hope it would feel

97
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: like a crisis to give up your animal. That animal

98
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: the sadness in their face is because their mission with

99
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: the person wasn't done. I had heard a story one day,

100
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: Susan of a family that didn't want their pet and

101
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: rather try to find a home for the animal, they

102
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: put it in a car, drove about a two hundred

103
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 1: miles away, opened the door and just let it out,

104
00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: so there was somewhere near our freeway, two hundred miles

105
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 1: away from its home. Yeah, I don't know if that

106
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: person is really in their body and a conscious being

107
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: at that point. I don't. I don't know how that

108
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 1: that disconnects with happened. That's that's quite sad for the person.

109
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: I have to like pray for somebody like that more.

110
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: I mean the animal. The animal will always it will

111
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: always know who it is, and it will suffer. But

112
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: it's not going to suffer as bad as that unconscious

113
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: person that just did this horrible thing. Yeah, it is.

114
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: It's unconscionable. I mean, how difficult is it to try

115
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: to find a family for your animal? Put an ad

116
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: in the newspaper or something for a free pet, for

117
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: loving the family. I keep saying this with the rescue

118
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: that I got two amazing dogs from, you know, I

119
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 1: adopted rather than shocked, even though I had my special breeds.

120
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: I just said enough, I'm not going to buy a

121
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: dog anymore. I hadn't had a dog in years anyway,

122
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: and I adopted. And it's I've never seen this particular

123
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: rescue so sad because there's just not enough food. I've

124
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: never seen anything like the crisis that we're in today.

125
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: So that's why we have to raise our vibration, raise

126
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: the light. I just I feel like it's the world

127
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: is definitely changing for the good. I think that we're

128
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: going to respect our animals more because of this. It's

129
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: got to come to that at this point, because of

130
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: what you're seeing and what I'm saying, you know what

131
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 1: I mean. So when we take calls next hour, do

132
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: you also talk to the people about animals that have

133
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: passed on or or you do and you need their

134
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,480
Speaker 1: pet name? Yes, I would love their pet name, and

135
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: then they could just give me a brief my cat

136
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: and spirit. I love looking at pictures like that's just

137
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,239
Speaker 1: my love to delve into those eyes and that soul.

138
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: But I could just do this just talking to somebody.

139
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: Some people love cats, some people love dogs. Tell me

140
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 1: why they have a distinction in a difference that I

141
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: can't explain. I think cats are much more independent and easier,

142
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: and they're very different, and some people think that they're

143
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: so much smarter than dogs. They're very very unique and different.

144
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: They are smart, really smart. Yeah, they're very coy too, yes, exactly.

145
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: And they have sandboxes, which is pretty good. I wish

146
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: dogs had that. Dogs are much more work. But if

147
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: you want to get out and exercise, it's it's kind

148
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: of good to have a dog. But you're right, Susan

149
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: I mean there's nothing like looking at an animal in

150
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: their eyes. Yeah, there's a connection there that is true.

151
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: And I usually have a Golden Retriever and just a

152
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: beautiful breed. But I mean they just know things. They

153
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 1: know when you're happy, they know when you're sad, and

154
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: they comfort you. They do. What about some of these

155
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: hospitals that have pets there who know if a person

156
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: has cancer or not. And it's most amazing things. They

157
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: know this because they're they're so close to spirit. I mean,

158
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 1: they're so much closer than us, and that's what they

159
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: could really teach us to just be still and know

160
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: that you're God, you're part of the God. Because they

161
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: know that, they can just sleep and be in their

162
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: sense of who they really are. So they're very, very

163
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: connected to people. I mean, some of these great stories

164
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: in the movies that come out. I cheat Joe, that

165
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 1: great Akida in Japan that the state at the train

166
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 1: station and wouldn't leave. I mean, there's amazing stories of

167
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: heroicism with nine to eleven. I mean, I think the

168
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: last heroic dog that was in rescuing people died like

169
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: two years ago. Yeah, and it was a golden I

170
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,320
Speaker 1: think wasn't it. Yeah, I think it was. Yeah, I

171
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: think it was a golden and they just you know,

172
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: they go into it not even worried about their own life.

173
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: That's right. They have no fear, that's right, and that's

174
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: what they're here to teach us self. Love, no fear.

175
00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: It's going to be okay. And that's where the sadness

176
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: and the disconnect comes when people are leaving their dogs

177
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: at an alarming rate in the shelters. You know, at

178
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: the beginning of COVID, the shelters were completely empty. Nobody

179
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: could adopt the dogs because people were adopting them. Yeah,

180
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: and now the shelters are overfilled. They'rel filled again, aren't Yeah.

181
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: What do you think of people who breed dogs but

182
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: do it responsibly? Is that okay? Oh? Of course, yeah.

183
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: I have no judgment. I don't you know. It's like,

184
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 1: if I'm judging you, I'm judging me. I don't want

185
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: to be judging me. I think there are really irresponsible

186
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: people out there, But the responsible breeders, they really care

187
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: about the succession of that breed and that's the most

188
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: important thing that they or about the ethics of reading.

189
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: Do you have too many dogs? Yes? Do I have

190
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: too many people exactly, Susan allenmedium dot com is your website.

191
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 1: Tell me about the medium portion of that for you, okay,

192
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: for me. So, you know, this just came about and

193
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 1: I was doing it on the side and I never

194
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: quit my day job. And then all of a sudden,

195
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: dead people started coming into my readings and it was

196
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: it was gentle and it didn't scare me. And I thought, Hey,

197
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: if this is how they're going to do this, I

198
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 1: can do this. So a lot of my business is

199
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: you know, personal soul speak. It went from pure animal

200
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: mediumship and pure animal soul speak too, you know, bringing

201
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: in departed loved ones. And it just was a natural.

202
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: It's kind of like Luke when you when you open

203
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: that door. But I wasn't expecting that door to open,

204
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: and it was very subtle. I was talking to this

205
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: woman's hat and the next thing I know, I just

206
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: glanced across my office and it was a picture of

207
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: me and my dad and I was just like glancing,

208
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: you know, like dreaming as I'm talking as a cat,

209
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, the photo of me and

210
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 1: my dad changed into her dad, and it just was

211
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: a telepathic thing that I said, oh, that's her dad,

212
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: and I described him and I started to bring her

213
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: messages and she said, yeah, we didn't get to say goodbye,

214
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what you look like. And it was

215
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: it was so healing for her for me because every

216
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: time I do a reading, it's like another level of

217
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 1: me gets healed. And I don't I don't look for that,

218
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: but it's just a natural thing that happens. So that's

219
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 1: why this works phenomenal. How many people Susan who are

220
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 1: lonely have an animal? Not enough. I think every person

221
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: that's lonely that's seeking somebody outside of themselves start with

222
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: a pet, even a hamster. I used to breed hamsters

223
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: when I was a little kid, and then I would

224
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: sell them to the pet stores. Oh for like a

225
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: dollar a piece or something. Oh wow, you know. I

226
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: was like nine years old doing this. And one day

227
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: I had a litter of little hamsters and they're about

228
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 1: an inch long, little furry things. And my father used

229
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 1: to shave in the basement and that's where I kept

230
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: my hamsters in a cage. Well, the wire mesh was

231
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: a little bigger than the little hamster. I hear my

232
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: dad screaming at me I'm about twelve years old at

233
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: that time. George get down here and he's really upset,

234
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: and he stepped on one of these little hamster babies

235
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: and it got stuck on the bottom of his foot.

236
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: Oh he never ever forgot that. Dad's not with us anymore,

237
00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: He's with the hamster. But but I will always remember that,

238
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: and I learned my lesson. Make the wire small, yeah,

239
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: so they can't crawl through it, don't We all have

240
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: those stories like that. I used to go to this

241
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: lake with my parents and I'd catch all the frogs

242
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: that I could. I'd love frogs. I love frogs, and

243
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: I brought them home and I'd stick them in the

244
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: bath the bathroom tub that my brother used to use

245
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: upstairs with me. We'd share that bathroom and he'd freak out,

246
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: you're all in there cooking and hopping along because I

247
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: have like twenty five frogs, And then oh, that's great

248
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 1: in the bathroom he kept these out of here. Did

249
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: you ever raise tadpoles? I did, because when I lived

250
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: in Staten Island, everything was um. It was all like mud,

251
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: and you could just catch him. And the greatest thing

252
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:52,239
Speaker 1: is to watch a tadpole morph into a frog. Amazing,

253
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: isn't it something? Yeah, just like caterpillars into butterflies. I

254
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 1: would I would try to save all my caterpillars so

255
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: that birds wouldn't eat them, and I'd bring them in

256
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: and it would be amazing watching these caterpillars turn into butterflies.

257
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 1: I must have put two hundred frogs in the creek,

258
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 1: raised from tadpoles. Oh wow, little ones, bullfrogs, all kinds

259
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: of frogs. Amazing. That's amazing. I mean I used to

260
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 1: love that stuff. I mean, it was just amazing. It's beautiful.

261
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: So how do animals have the healing potential and properties

262
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: about themselves? Well, they're so connected to spirit because they

263
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: don't verbally communicate, they telepathically communicate. So I mean, do

264
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: they know that something's wrong with somebody? Yes, I mean

265
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: even a dog that you're not connected to, but that

266
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 1: you live with or feed. Because we have two dogs,

267
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: and one I'm extremely connected to and the other one

268
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: is more like my husband's favorite, and I never thought

269
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: that I wouldn't be connected to that one. It's very

270
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: very interesting that a dog will choose its special person

271
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: when I don't feel well or I'm having a bad day.

272
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,920
Speaker 1: That dog will come up to me and put her

273
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 1: ears back and look in my face and she knows,

274
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: and we have a conversation and she wants to hang

275
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: out with me to help me. So they totally know.

276
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: They totally will follow you around and they want to help. See,

277
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: that's why they're really here. Ultimately, that's why they were

278
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: created to help balance us, to help put us more

279
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: in a meditative state, because the meditation is key to everything.

280
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: The meditation is key to healing, it's key to connecting

281
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: to your pet. And you know, if somebody says I

282
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: can't meditate, Susan, I always say, you know, meditation is

283
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: a practice. It's never going to be perfected. The thing

284
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,479
Speaker 1: is is to just try to meditate, because when you meditate,

285
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 1: you're not just connecting to something higher than you. You're

286
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 1: also connecting to your pet. Well, who's doing the healing,

287
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: the individual or the animal. Well, the animal will amplify

288
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: it and to a degree that that you can't do

289
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,479
Speaker 1: it on your own. That's why I love animals so much,

290
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: because they will amplify the healing. They'll teach you who

291
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: you are, they'll teach you how to love yourself. If

292
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: you can't they just teach you, you know, the beauty

293
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: of how they love us. And it's all through the

294
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: power of love that really, really heals us. Listen to
