1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody needs a reading. Nobody really wants 2 00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: to stay with me. They want their loved one friends 3 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 1: to be here in the physical world. I want people 4 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: to recognize that a medium is not going to fix 5 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:07,960 Speaker 1: their creed. 6 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 2: John Edward, Welcome to on Purpose. 7 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. 8 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 2: It's great to have you here. It's not every day 9 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 2: I get to sit down with a psychic medium and 10 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: to dive into your mind, to dive into your work, 11 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 2: to learn more about an area that I'm curious about 12 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: as a form of healing and growth for people who 13 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: need it and seek it out. And I think my 14 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: first question to you is what do most people come 15 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 2: to you searching for? What are they seeking when they 16 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 2: come to you. 17 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: When a client first decides that they want to see 18 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: a medium, they are thinking, I want to make that 19 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: connection back with the person who's left the physical world. 20 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 1: That seeking of what they think is closure is actually 21 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: really connection. So I think what they think they are 22 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,639 Speaker 1: seeking as closure when it becomes the connection. I want 23 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: people to recognize that there's a survival of consciousness, that 24 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: life and love eternal, and that medium is not going 25 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: to fix their grief. So that's what they think that 26 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: they're coming for like they're going to be healed, They're 27 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 1: going to be fixed, and I think truth be told, 28 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: it's going to actually set them on a path of discovery. 29 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: How many people are disappointed that they're not going to 30 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: get fixed and healed when they realize that's not the process, 31 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: And how many people continue to actually say, no, I'm 32 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 2: going to commit to this next phase. 33 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what the numbers would be, but I 34 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: can go by feeling right. I think that in every reading, 35 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: no matter how amazing the information may be, you're always 36 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: starting as a deficit because nobody wants to say with me. 37 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: Nobody really wants to stay with me. They want their 38 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: loved one and friends to be here in the physical world, 39 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: So we're already starting at a deficit. I think that 40 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 1: there's an expectation that somebody has when they go for reading. 41 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: I need to hear this, they need to say this, 42 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: I need to know this, and then that kind of 43 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: reflects back to them. Then I'll be okay, And they 44 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: may not hear that. They may not hear from the 45 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: person that they want to hear from, or they may 46 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 1: hear from multiple people. So there's always a level of 47 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: expectation management. And I think disappointment that comes into a 48 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 1: reading is that I always want people to be like, hey, 49 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: if you're not ready for this, don't go, like, process 50 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: your grief in a different way, because you can't make 51 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: someone come through, and you cannot make them say the 52 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: things that you want them to say. 53 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, when people are coming, are they usually coming because 54 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: they feel there was something I didn't say or something 55 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: I didn't hear, or is it that I just missed 56 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 2: that person and I want to access them if they 57 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: had some sort of dream, experience revelation, like where's that 58 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: need coming from for humans to want to connect with 59 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 2: someone who's passed on? 60 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: I think it's all of the above. I think people 61 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: want to know that they're okay. I'd start there. The 62 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: physical death process takes them away from us, and as 63 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: a result of taking them away from us, it makes 64 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: us feel absent, it makes us feel empty, it makes 65 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 1: us feel vulnerable, and now I want to know are 66 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: they okay? So what I want people to know is 67 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: they are okay, but we are not the grieving or not, 68 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: and we're projecting onto them our not being okay. And 69 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: I think the process of them coming through is to 70 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: help a usuage some of that to say, no, I'm okay. Now, 71 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: let's work on you, like I'm okay, let's work on 72 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: what my passing has now done. What are the obstacles 73 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: in the blockages that are coming? 74 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you're very open to skeptics, and I 75 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 2: can imagine anyone who's listening or watching right now is 76 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 2: just like, Jay, why are you doing this? What's the point? Like, 77 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: none of this works, it's not real to make believe. 78 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 2: And you've probably heard every excuse in the book or 79 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: every thing in the book, because you've done this for 80 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 2: a long, long, long, long long time. What has been 81 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: your approach to meeting a skeptic who right now is 82 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 2: going that is just not true, that's not possible. 83 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: My approach is to come on the journey. And what 84 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: I mean by that is I was that person. So 85 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: at a very young age, I had a reading that 86 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 1: put me on this path, and I had no choice 87 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: but to come to the understanding that this woman was 88 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: legitimate with what she was doing, because there's no way 89 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: possible that she could have known what she had known. 90 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: I ruled oubt that it was mind reading for the 91 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: simple reason that she could not have known something that 92 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: was going to happen when it wasn't in my mind 93 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: if I didn't know about it. So I'm an analytical 94 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: person and I was like, okay, I need to understand 95 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: what this is. How did she do this? And this 96 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: woman told me that I had this ability and that 97 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: in that first reading that I had with her, she said, 98 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: you're going to change the way millions of people look 99 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: at this subject matter. I was fifteen years old. You know. 100 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: When I jokingly say, it's like she could have said, 101 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: I parked my spaceship in the backyard and I'll take 102 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: you for a spin when we're done, right. It was 103 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: like analogous to that. The reality is that sent me 104 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: out a journey and I became a seeker. And I 105 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: think that when we were seekers, that leads to exploration. 106 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: And my exploration took me to the public library where 107 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: I read every book back in nineteen eighty five on 108 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: the Occult, and I was insatiable with information and my discovery, 109 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 1: which raised my awareness was this is common sense, like 110 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: everybody has this. This isn't psychic, this is just basic, 111 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: like you know, we all do this. So I started 112 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: asking questions. Was I would ask my high schoo friends. 113 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: Haven't you ever seen your deck grandfather? The answer was no. 114 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: I said, you've never had an apparition? The answer was no. 115 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: Have you ever had dreams I came through? The answer 116 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: was no. So I started to recognize that maybe my 117 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: understanding of myself at that time I needed to reframe 118 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: certain things. Then I went into the active development part. 119 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: But before that, I was the person who was debunking 120 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: the people that came to my grandmother's house to do readings. 121 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: So I get it. But there is a difference between 122 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: skepticism and cynicism. Skepticism says I'm not sure, show me. 123 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: Cynicism says I'm sure. No matter what you show me, 124 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: I'm not going to believe you. And I think that 125 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: you can't give somebody a belief system. And I'm down 126 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: with people being skeptical. The only part that I think 127 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: is not cool is when somebody defines a person's personal 128 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: motivations because they don't know me. So, you know, I've 129 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: had every possible scenario, you know, scammer, fraud, con grift, 130 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: or you name it. They kind of like fall off me. 131 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: Now forty years of doing this, you're kind of like 132 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: it is what it is. But the reality is, I've 133 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 1: put myself through positions of being studied and tested. I've 134 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: read for people in positions I've made sure that when 135 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: I read, I'm giving information, not philosophy. So I just 136 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 1: want people to come on that journey. You know, many 137 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: years ago, there was a woman who sent me a 138 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: letter and I hope I get this correctly. She was 139 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 1: an insurance fraud investigator and she kind of took it 140 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: on herself, like I don't like him, I'm gonna like, 141 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use my skill set and I'm gonna follow 142 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: him around. And so she came to different events. But 143 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: before she did that, she went to the Skeptical Society 144 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: meetings and she was armed with what the things to 145 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: look for, and so she was looking for, you know, 146 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: reading body language, verbal intonation cues, and most importantly, she 147 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: wanted to see if the same people were being read 148 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: in different cities that they were like you know, actors 149 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: that were connected. When all was said and done, she 150 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: wrote me this amazing letter and she said, Wow, I'm 151 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: more concerned about the negative committation that people are putting 152 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: out about what you're doing then the reality that you 153 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: are just doing what you're doing. And I'm still friends 154 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: with her, like twenty five years later, right, and I remember, 155 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: like I got that letter and I just called her 156 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: up and I was like, a name is Marsha. I 157 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: was like Marcia and she's like who is this. I'm 158 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: like it's Jrawn Edward and she's like, oh, I said, 159 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: I just wanted to personally say thank you for the 160 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: letter because she did her due diligence. She came, she watched, 161 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 1: she saw, and I think that when people do that 162 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: with legitimate mediums, I think they will think differently because 163 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: it's basically showing them that there's a process that's happening here. 164 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: That is not to say that there aren't a ton 165 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: of other people that are out there. Go on TikTok, 166 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: you'll see them right, go on Instagram and YouTube and 167 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: they're there. I see them. I blocked them constantly. Skepticism 168 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 1: is helpful, so I want everybody to have that, but 169 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: be objectively skeptical. Don't be judgmental and skeptical. 170 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: What are the studies that you said that have been 171 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: done on you to help prove or show some of 172 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: the capability that you have. What would we see if 173 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 2: we studied your brain, or what's being scanned, what's being 174 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 2: looked at. 175 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: So the cool part for me is back in nineteen 176 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: ninety nine, HBO was doing a documentary called America on 177 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: the cover Life After Life, and it was produced by 178 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: Linda Ellerby and her production company, Lucky Duck Productions. And 179 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: I had not done a lot of television. I was 180 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: mostly a radio guy. I love radio because it was 181 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: like interactive and live. But then they said that doctor 182 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: Gary Schwartz was going to be part of this and 183 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: he was going to study this. He wanted to study us, 184 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: you know, Harvard Yale guy right, And I would sink, like, 185 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: how do I not do that? Like one, I have 186 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: a science mind, Like I like data, So I'm like, 187 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: how do I not do this? And then a colleague 188 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: of mine was invited. Her name is Susanne Northwrop, and 189 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: I was like, Susanna, are you doing this? And She's like, 190 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: how do we not do this? She's like and you know, 191 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: her joke was, how do we not sit in the seat? 192 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: You know, how do you not put yourself in the seat. 193 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: So it was myself and gaym in, Susanne Northrop, George Anderson, 194 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: and Lri Campbell. We were like five people that were 195 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: you know, laborats basically, and what they were doing is 196 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: they were looking at EEGs EKGs and they the first 197 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: testing that we did, which was on the documentary, they 198 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: put the woman that we read and they kind of 199 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: looked at the data that came through. And then in science, 200 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: when you do additional testing, as you know that they 201 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 1: have to replicate and extend data points. So we did 202 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: that and they introduced something called the silence sitter experiment. 203 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: And then the third time we did that, there was 204 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 1: another layer that they added in and then he compiled 205 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: all that data and it ruled out that body language, verbalignations, 206 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: like all of the things that the quote unquote cynics 207 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: would say we're doing, they were able to establish no, 208 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: we're not. And here's the data. That book was written. 209 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: It's called the air Flife Experiments. And I foolishly thought, 210 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: like when the studies came out and when the book 211 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: got published, I was like, Okay, we're going to take 212 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: this work to the next level now like people are 213 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: going to go like, okay, there's like science. Oh no, 214 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: they attacked the scientists. Now the scientist was crazy. And 215 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: it was that moment where I recognized it doesn't matter, right, 216 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: twenty percent of the population, you're going to believe. Twenty 217 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: percent of the population, I'm not going to believe. And 218 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: some people fall you know, somewhere within that range. So 219 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 1: that's why I came to the place of be skeptical, 220 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: question everything, so they're not taking advantage by people who 221 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: are claiming to do this and can't make sure you're 222 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: getting information and validation evidence that that person is talking 223 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: to your relative and they're not just giving you philosophy. 224 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: And I travel around the world, I do events constantly. 225 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: The first part of my events are always to establish 226 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: that because I want to protect people from like, you know, 227 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: anybody who walks in front of a crowd of people 228 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: and says, who here connects with a butterfly? Well, guess what, 229 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: somebody's going to connect with a butterfly? Right, Every afterlife 230 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: book has a butterfly on it because it's the quintessential transformation. 231 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: So I try to do the debunking of my own 232 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,719 Speaker 1: field while raising the bar and kind of trying to 233 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: put out there what I think people should be looking for. 234 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: In my professional opinion. 235 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's the natural consent people have, is 236 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: that the human mind can project anything back onto itself. 237 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: So when you say butterfly, yeah, it's like every single 238 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: person and the room is thinking of that exact moment. It's 239 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: almost like saying, don't think of a pink elephant, and 240 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: then naturally the whole room is thinking about a pink elephant. 241 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: Well, what I do is I stand in front of 242 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: the crowd and I'll say I'm going to disappoint all 243 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: of you right now, and they kind of get that 244 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 1: look of like what I'm like, here's what I'm not 245 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: talking about. And then I say, instead of me telling you, 246 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to show you why, and I go, who 247 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: here connects with butterflies and that's your sign? And then 248 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: people raise their hand. And then I go through cardinals 249 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: and hummingbirds and dragonflies and finding pennies, dimes and quarters, 250 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: and then I go through feathers, and then I talk 251 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: about seeing eleven eleven and then other iteration of numbers. 252 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: By the time I'm done, ninety percent of the room 253 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: has raised their hand, and I'm like, all of that's 254 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: off the table. I'm not going to bring it up. 255 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: When we make connections today, we're going to go deeper 256 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: and you may have to think about something that's not 257 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: on your top ten list of what you want to hear. 258 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: But as long as it's the fact in a validation, 259 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: then it sudden you know that it's them coming through. 260 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: A lot of times, it's really trivial stuff. By the way, 261 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: conversations has just happened, things that you know they did 262 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: when nobody else was around. But it supports that there 263 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: is a survival of consciousness and that our loved ones 264 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 1: and friends are still part of what we're doing. 265 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 2: I want to talk about sessions with you what they 266 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: look like, because I almost want to have a conversation 267 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: that helps people understand what the process looks like and 268 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 2: feels like. And I was talking to my producer, I 269 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 2: know how to call with you before we book this 270 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 2: and everything. So she was saying to me that when 271 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 2: you were on zoom with her, you asked her if 272 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 2: you could read her quickly or whatever the right language. 273 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: Is that accurate? And she said, you asked her a 274 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 2: question like who's Chris, And Chris happens to be her 275 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,719 Speaker 2: ex boyfriend. 276 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: Remember this, I did this. 277 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 2: And and she'd spoken to him like she'd had an 278 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: interaction with him, like two days before that. She was 279 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: telling me okay, and it was just like, there is 280 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: nowhere that you could have reset that. Her page is 281 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: a private page on social media, so you couldn't find 282 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 2: it there. What are you experiencing? I want to know, 283 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 2: like almost how things revealed to you, because that feels. 284 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: When she was telling me that story, I was just like, 285 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 2: that's incredible, Like that's that's. 286 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: You should come to an event then, yeah, that's that's 287 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: just the tip of the iceberg of like flayers of 288 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: like what comes through. 289 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: But I was just thinking. I was like, there's no 290 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: way unless you were family friends of a distance and 291 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: you knew something. It's a it's a really hard thing 292 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 2: to pull off for somebody. 293 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: That that's the good skeptical part, Like that's where I 294 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: want people to have, right, so I see here and 295 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: feel energy. My abilities are a clairvoyance, clear audience, and 296 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: clear sentient and what that is, Yeah, well that translates it. 297 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,199 Speaker 1: They're like French words clare audience means clear hearing, Clairvoyance 298 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: means clear seeing, claire sentience means clear feeling. And this 299 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: is where I jokingly say, there's absolutely nothing clear about it. 300 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: You know, it should be like cloudy seating cloudy, hearing, cloudy, 301 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 1: cloudy feeling. And then in this kind of like downloaded vibe, 302 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: I'm basically telling you what it is that I'm seeing, hearing, feeling, And. 303 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 2: So did you see the name Chris? Did you hear it? 304 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 1: We heard it. I've probably heard it right where it's 305 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: like a download. So let me give you an example 306 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: of what that means. You know, when you're reading a 307 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: book where you're reading something, but your mind goes someplace 308 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 1: else and you're thinking about something else, and then you 309 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: have to go back and read read what it was. 310 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: That's what it's like. So it's not an out loud voice. 311 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: Nobody's yelling Chris. You know, it's like, I have two 312 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: thoughts that are happening. So maybe somebody's asking me a question, 313 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: and while she's asked me the question, it's like Chris, 314 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, can I ask you? Like, who's Chris? And 315 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: in the case of a reading, it's just a lot 316 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: of that, and then I put myself on the zone 317 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: of receiving and my style of reading actually changed from 318 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: the University of Arizona Studies because the second time we 319 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: went out there, they said we're going to do something 320 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: called the silent sitter experience, and I'm like, okay, great, 321 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: what does that mean? And they said, you're going to 322 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: sit there, they're going to put the person behind you, 323 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: and for the first ten minutes of the reading, they're 324 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: not going to talk. And I about had collitis in 325 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: that moment, and I went, what do you mean they're 326 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 1: not going to talk? And they said, we want to 327 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: see if you can get information without the person having 328 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: to say anything to you. And I remember thinking, I 329 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: don't think I can do that, Like I think I 330 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: need them to validate like what's coming through So like 331 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: an athlete goes into training for a competition months leading 332 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: up to that. All my clients when they would come 333 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: to me, i'd be like, hey, listen, I have to 334 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 1: go through this like science testing. Can you not talk 335 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: for the first ten minutes? Can you try not to 336 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: say anything? And they would be like okay. And I 337 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: recognized that I was already doing it. I just didn't 338 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: know that I was doing it because I would stop 339 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: people from trying to say something because if they gave 340 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: me a bias, it might take me in the wrong direction. 341 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 1: I'm also like by habit, and I have to stop 342 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 1: myself from doing an interviews, like, while I'm talking to somebody, 343 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: I will drift over to a blank wall because what 344 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: I do is I focus on a blank wall to 345 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 1: see what I'm seeing in my mind's eye. So when 346 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: I did my TV show Crossing Over, I didn't design this, 347 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: but they came up to me and they showed me 348 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: the sets. And the original set of Crossing Over had 349 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: these big white sales all around the room, and I thought, 350 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: why did you guys put those there? And they because, oh, 351 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: we thought that it looked great, and you know, these 352 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: amorphous shapes, and I'm like, perfect, That's where I would focus. 353 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: So I didn't look at the clients. So that's how 354 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: information comes through. I see it, I hear it, and 355 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: I feel it. 356 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 2: And do you believe that anyone can go from cloudy 357 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 2: to clear thinking, hearing and seeing or is that something 358 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: that you uniquely Obviously the medium mentioned to you at 359 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 2: fifteen that you had that could we all fine tune 360 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 2: ourselves to that level? 361 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,720 Speaker 1: Or is that I think we can all find tune 362 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: ourselves to our level? Right, And there are a lot 363 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: of people that you know, with the success of Crossing 364 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 1: Over and with the success of what I've done, I 365 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: have had a lot of people like come out psychic medium, 366 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: and I don't believe that they're all psychic medium. I 367 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: think that they might be ridiculously psychic and they would 368 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: probably be better numerologists, tower readers, astrologers. But because they saw 369 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: popularity with the word medium, they were like, oh, psychic medium, 370 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: but they're flipping cards psych psychic medium, but I'm doing astrology. 371 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 1: It's like, no, do what you do. And I come 372 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: out of a health care background, so for me, it's 373 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: like you have different specialties, right, So you have your doctors, 374 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: you have your general practitioners, and then you have surgeons. 375 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: So a medium is like a specialty of being a psychic. 376 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: I think every person that does whatever metaphysical practice that 377 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: they're doing is tapping it to their intuition, and it 378 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: gives them a framework, a boundary, something to work within. 379 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: So I think everybody can do that. My goal is 380 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 1: to get people to look at life through an energetic 381 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: lens and not to think that they need the medium. Right, 382 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: if you could raise your awareness to a point of 383 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 1: paying attention to your intuition, then when you're making decisions, 384 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 1: you're making decisions based upon not fear but you're making 385 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: decisions based on a feeling of this is good for 386 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,679 Speaker 1: me or this is not good for me. And I 387 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: think if most people just sit and just sit with 388 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: what's happening around them, they're going to go, Wow, this 389 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: feels not good. Maybe this is not a good person 390 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: for me to be around. But then we talk ourselves 391 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: out of that. No, but I've known them forever and 392 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: they're you know, and our families knew each other and 393 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: blah blah. But meanwhile, you're the one who's keeping the 394 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: relationship going. That person's not doing anything for them. So 395 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: I think if people sit with what they're feeling and 396 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: they're true to what they're feeling, they can make better 397 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: informed decisions. So I would want people to look at 398 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: life through an energetic pair of classes. 399 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then the next thing my producer said was 400 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 2: that you asked her if she had any experience with 401 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 2: suicide in her you know, friends and family or in 402 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 2: her life, and she's talked to me about it before. 403 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 2: She has had someone in her life who died by suicide. 404 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 2: And then you asked her if she had any artwork 405 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 2: to do with that person. And she actually has tattoos 406 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 2: on her body that are based on that relationship, and 407 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 2: I was like, you know that to me to do 408 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 2: that over a zoom call. I'm sharing all of this 409 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: because this happened in real time and you know it's 410 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 2: not at an event, and just for people to get 411 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 2: context of you doing this over someone that I know 412 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 2: on my team, and I was thinking, wow, like you know, 413 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 2: it's it's pretty amazing to be even to be able 414 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: to do it across zoom. How does that work? 415 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: It's energy, right, So it's just energy. First, I have 416 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 1: to say thank you because I can't tell you how 417 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: many people I have been interviewed by, whether it be 418 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: radio or television, where stuff would happen and they would 419 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: never bring something like that up. So the fact that 420 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: you're doing that is just like, thank you. 421 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: It's real. So I have to bring it up. It's 422 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 2: you know, if I'm talking to my team and we 423 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 2: always that's just it. 424 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 1: You don't have to, oh right, okay, you don't have to. 425 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: And I can't tell you how many circumstances I've been 426 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: in where that validation never happened. So gratitude, thank you. 427 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 1: But it's energy, you know, It's just simply simply energy. 428 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: So there's somebody that I know that does healing work. 429 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 1: His name is Charlie Grolsmith. And one of the things 430 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: that I witnessed Charlie do was like, you know, a healing, 431 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 1: a group healing maybe over Facebook or whatever. And I 432 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: was talking to my kids and I'm like, you know, 433 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,160 Speaker 1: it's kind of like interesting. I was like, I would 434 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: think that as a healer, you would have to like 435 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: be next to the persons like to heal them. And 436 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: I see my kids look at me like I'm like what, 437 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: and they're just like they'd like to kind of turn 438 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 1: the ahead of me, and they're like, do you need 439 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: to be next to the person in order to connect 440 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 1: with them? And I had that moment of like, oh, 441 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: that should have been my answer, right, but look at me. 442 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: I do what I do. And I still questioned, like 443 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: the process of something, why because I didn't understand it. 444 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,360 Speaker 1: But once I put it in the frame of reference 445 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: of oh I get it now, I get it. Okay, 446 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: there it. 447 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 2: Is, so before we dive into more about the process 448 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 2: that people actually come into and I wanted to share 449 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 2: those examples just because I felt that they were like 450 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 2: you said, but they were just so real to me. 451 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 2: Someone that I know someone who's producing the show who 452 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 2: isn't coming to you for a particular need, and for 453 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: them to still have that experience was pretty powerful. How 454 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 2: can people watch out for anyone who's misleading them, taking 455 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 2: their money, taking advantage of them. What are the things 456 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 2: to look out for? 457 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:53,959 Speaker 1: So I think that if you see somebody that is 458 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: saying stuff like you have a curse on you that 459 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,880 Speaker 1: like you know, run, you know you pay me money, 460 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to take off that that curse, pay me money, 461 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: onne like candles for you, like all all that kind 462 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: of stuff. That's red flag. Red flag. Another red flag 463 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: for me is when somebody who can't actually do a reading. 464 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: They may be intuitive in psychic, but they're calling themselves 465 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: a medium when they're not, and they then blame the 466 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: person in spirit for not coming through, Like they'll say 467 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,960 Speaker 1: something like, your dad's not evolved enough in spirit, he 468 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: needs more prayers. No he doesn't. That person just couldn't 469 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: make the connection. So like, I will never blame my 470 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: lack of connection on the person who's passed. I'll just 471 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 1: say I'm sorry I can't make the connection, which means 472 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: it's a me thing. I was live on a Larry 473 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: King night, like you know, doing readings, and there was 474 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: somebody had called up and I got nothing, like absolutely 475 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: nothing on this one person. And I said, I'm so sorry, 476 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: I can't make the connection with you. And we go 477 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: to commercial and Larry looked at me and he's like, 478 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 1: he's like, I might believe you more now. I went, 479 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: you believe me more now because I couldn't do the reading. 480 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: He said, because you could have said anything. I go, no, 481 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I said, I had nothing. So because I 482 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,720 Speaker 1: had nothing, I could not say anything. So I think 483 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: we have to look at being careful that people are 484 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: not just giving philosophy. And that's what they went for me, 485 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: Like when someone pontificates in a reading, and I always 486 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: watch it when somebody will not kind of feel like 487 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: they're getting information, but then they get something right hypothetically 488 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: and then there's a story that's built around it. Right. 489 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: So if you know that the person's past, right, if 490 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 1: it's a mother, it's a dad, it's whatever. There's personality traits, 491 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: there's relationship dynamics that you may want to hear. Your 492 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: mom wants you to know that she loves you and 493 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,880 Speaker 1: she's standing with you, and it's it's swirly and it's 494 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: flowery and it's ornate. 495 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 2: And everyone wants to hear it. 496 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 1: Yeah generally, Yeah, they definitely want to hear that. And 497 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,400 Speaker 1: I'll say that, but I'm going to say it differently. 498 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: I'm going to be like justin you know that they're okay, 499 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: and they're coming through from a place of love. Now 500 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: I have symbols. If I see pink roses, I know 501 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 1: that they want me to express love. If I see 502 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: pink roses with thorns on it, I know that they 503 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 1: want me to express love. But they also want me 504 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: to say in life, they couldn't do it, can't hold 505 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: the flowers right their thorny. So I don't like when 506 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: people give philosophy as information. I don't like when people, 507 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, go for the low hanging fruit. Who here 508 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: has the butterfly connection? Like all of those types of things. 509 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 1: I think you need to be careful about things like 510 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: that if they're asking you for any type of like 511 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: questions Like I was watching something online one day and 512 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: the person said, in order for me to make the 513 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: connection with you, I need you to tell me the 514 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: relationship of the person who's passed the name of the 515 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 1: person who's passed, the date that the person's passed, and 516 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: how they passed, and I got levitated out of my chair. 517 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: I was like, then, what are you doing? Right? So, 518 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: if I'm doing a radio show, if I'm doing a 519 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: call in, I might say to the person, Hey, how 520 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: can I help you? Do you have a question, and 521 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: they may say I'd like to try to connect my 522 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: dad that's it. And then I'm going to say, Okay, 523 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 1: I may not get your dad, but pay attention to 524 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: everything that's coming through. And then I feel like my 525 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: job is to interview who's coming through, who are you, 526 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: how did you pass? When did you pass? Any pertinent dates? 527 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: And then ultimately I'm looking for the why now right, 528 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: So at the intersection of you, me and the universe, 529 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,959 Speaker 1: Why now? Why today? And what is that nugget that 530 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: I have to mind for that I'm going to help 531 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 1: them with. That's what I'm looking for in a session, 532 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: whether I'm in front of people or if I'm going 533 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: to want on one. 534 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 2: How did you the first time you did this feel? 535 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 2: Because you're in that reading yourself at fifteen years old? 536 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 2: How did you even end up there in the first 537 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: place doing the reading that was done on you that 538 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 2: you had that you got the message. 539 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: So my Italian side of the family, my grandmother and 540 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 1: my mom had psychics come to the house all the time. 541 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: My dad was a New York City police officer, not 542 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: a fan of the subject matter, made sure that I 543 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: was never around it growing up. My mom dad divorced, 544 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:05,159 Speaker 1: moved into my grandmother's house paranormal hub of activity, and 545 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 1: for about three years when they would do stuff like that, 546 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: I used to make fun of the people, you know, 547 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: I would, you know, jokingly. I remember one guy, there's 548 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: a card reader that they had, and after like three 549 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: people came out, the third or fourth person came out 550 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: and I went, wait, let me guess you're going to Florida, 551 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 1: And the person went, yes, he said, I'm going to Florida. 552 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 1: How did you know that, I'm like, because you live 553 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: in New York. Like New Yorkers go to Florida and Aruba, Like, 554 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: why is nobody going to Kansas? Right? So the reality 555 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: was I was that person. So when I say, I 556 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: understand SAPs skepticism. But after I had that first reading, 557 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 1: I went to de bank Her and I went to 558 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 1: de bunk Her because my grandmother came out of the 559 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: room crying. She made my grandmother upset, and I was like, 560 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: what did this woman say to you? Very protective of 561 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: my grandmother, and she said no, she told me that 562 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: Tony was with me. And then I felt bad because 563 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, Grandma, you were Tony was my grandfather Anthony? 564 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: I was like, you were introduced as missus esposito. It's 565 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,479 Speaker 1: not a big stretch. It's going to be an Anthony 566 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: or a Tony in your family. No, And to my 567 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: grandmother's credit, she said, if you don't believe that your grandfather, 568 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: who loved me more than life itself, is still with me, 569 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: that's like a you problem, not a me problem. And 570 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: then she said how would she know this? And then 571 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: she proceeded to tell me things that apparently were true 572 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: that I did not know having to do with my grandfather. 573 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: So I didn't leave it there. Here's what I did. 574 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 1: I went to the list of people that were in 575 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 1: the room that this woman read before my grandmother to 576 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: see who could my name is Lydia Clara. Who could 577 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 1: Lydia have extrapolated that information from and then given it 578 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: to the oldest person in the room. None. There was 579 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: nobody that that woman read before so then my cousin went. 580 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: My cousin's thirteen years older than I am, but she 581 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: looked like she was the same age. And she came 582 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: out and she was like, oh my god. And I'm like, 583 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: come on, ro not you too, and she's like you 584 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: have to go, Like you have to go. She's like, 585 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: I'll pay for you to go. And I looked at 586 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: my mother like could I go? And she said you 587 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: can go, but you better treat her with respect. And 588 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: I said, oh, I'll treat her with respect. I'm just 589 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: not gonna help her like the rest of you. So 590 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 1: I went in armed with my like attitude, and she said, 591 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 1: can I have your high school ring? And I went sure, 592 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: I took off my ring, my handed to her, and 593 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: she went like this did not look at me, and 594 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: then proceeded to give me information that kind of sound 595 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: honestly sounded batshit crazy. I mean, she literally said to me, 596 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: you have highly evolved beings of white and gold light 597 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: that are ready to work with you, and I'm here 598 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 1: to put you on your path. And I remember, like 599 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 1: the way that she said it with such conviction. I'm like, oh, 600 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: so she's crazy, Like this is like this is crazy. 601 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 1: So I was like, okay, and then like part two 602 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 1: of the reading made sense, but yet it didn't but 603 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: it did make sense, so she was two for two. 604 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: And then the last part was where she just like 605 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: rocked my world, like flip me upside down, and I 606 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 1: was like whoa, Like there's no way that she would 607 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: know this. That set me on my path. And then 608 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: from like nineteen eighty five to nineteen eighty seven, reading 609 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: just what's happening now, what's coming up for a person? 610 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: I had no interest in dead people. In nineteen eighty seven, 611 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 1: my uncle died. That shifted my perspective. And I always 612 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: tell people that when you have a perspective shift, that's 613 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: where lessons come in if you're open. I was open, 614 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: and it was the first time I saw what grief 615 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 1: does to a family. And then, unfortunately, a year and 616 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 1: a half to two years later, my mom was diagnosed 617 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: with cancer and then my world was just rocked and 618 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: that was a catalyst for me. That was a huge catalyst, 619 00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: and it changed everything because then then I was the client. 620 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 2: Is that how you first used the process was for yourself? 621 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: I think before that, so from like nineteen eighty seven 622 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: to nineteen eighty nine, when a client came in to 623 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: see me, I would apologize to them and say, hey, 624 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: I know you're here because you want to talk about 625 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: like relationships stuff and job stuff and like life. I 626 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: go put, I'm also a medium. I sa I'm going 627 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: to have to get that out of the way in 628 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: the beginning. Is that okay? And people look at me 629 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: and go like sure, And then I would do the 630 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: first part of the reading where whoever was going to 631 00:28:58,320 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: come through was going to come through, and then I 632 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: got into what I thought was the real part, you know, 633 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: their life, like why they were here and how I 634 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: can help them. And then I had this one woman 635 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: where her dad he was just loud, like you just 636 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: and it was going The session was like fifty sixty 637 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 1: percent over and there was no letting up. Papa was 638 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 1: not stopping. And then I looked at the woman. I 639 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: remember saying, I am so sorry I go, but I 640 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: can't get into other stuff. I said, your dad's like 641 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: legitimately like not stopping. And I say this often. It 642 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: was the way she touched my hand. She leaned over 643 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: and she touched my hand and said, it's okay, it's 644 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: my dad, And I like looked at her I was like, 645 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: so you're okay spending your entire session with me just 646 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: talking to your dad who's crossed, and she went yeah, 647 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: And that was like my first kind of like, oh, 648 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: I didn't think people really had an interest in that. 649 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:53,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 650 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 1: And then I learned why people had an interest in 651 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: that when my mom passed. So every reading I did 652 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: for somebody else, I was kind of doing for myself. 653 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: It was reinforcing, you know, reading strangers, I was like, okay, 654 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 1: well if their mom was with them, then my mom 655 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,719 Speaker 1: was with me. And that's what really helped me with 656 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: my grief. People always say, like, you know what helped 657 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: you deal with your grief? I was like doing readings, 658 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: just seeing the constant reinforcement, the validation these people's reactions. 659 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 2: At what point in their grief does someone have to 660 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 2: come to really be open to it? Because everyone's going 661 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 2: to miss someone they love. Most people are sad when 662 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 2: they lose someone that they were close to, especially a 663 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,719 Speaker 2: my father or grandmother, you know, whoever, it may be 664 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: a best friend. At what point do they really need 665 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 2: what you have to offer. Is it because it's been 666 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 2: too long and they can't move on. Is it because 667 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 2: they really feel that because I'm just trying to understand, 668 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 2: like what I've lost people, but and this is just 669 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: who I am, So it's I've just I'm very at 670 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 2: peace with the closest people I've lost in my life, 671 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 2: and I feel like I still communicate with them, even 672 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 2: not in a not in your way or in any 673 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: direct way of listening. That I'm not a psycho medium 674 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 2: at all, or don't believe I have those abilities, but 675 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: I feel a connection to people in my own way, 676 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 2: So I'm at peace with that. So I guess I'm 677 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 2: trying to understand what drives someone and at what point 678 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,959 Speaker 2: do they really do they value and need what you 679 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 2: have to offer. 680 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: I think it depends upon the person. But if I 681 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: could just say, generally speaking, I don't think anybody needs 682 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: a reading, and I think that's kind of maybe shocking 683 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: to hear me say that when this is what I 684 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: do for a living. But I've been saying that since 685 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: I'm sixteen, Like, I don't think anybody needs a reading. 686 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 1: You know, if you need one, I think they need 687 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: an understanding. So I've always seen myself as being the 688 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: teacher or the educator, and a reading can support what 689 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: you believe or know right, and that's important. But I 690 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: think if we can get people to be fifty percent 691 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: of the equation. When someone passes and you are legit 692 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: still communicating with them, you're incorporating them in your lives. 693 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: Like I love the movie Coco for that purpose. Right, 694 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: It's like you're not forgetting the person, you're including them. 695 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: I include my family and friends that have crossed in 696 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: my daily lives, Like I keep their presence very much 697 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: with me because I talk about them. That doesn't mean 698 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: that I'm in channel with them. I'm not having conversations, 699 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: but I kind of am. Right, So, like, what really 700 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: is social media? Right? When you do social media, people 701 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: are posting their lives out there for the people that 702 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: follow them to see it. Your photos or your whatever 703 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: you're doing, you're putting that out there. So you may 704 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: not send it as a text to someone, but you're 705 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: putting it out there for those to watch. We're living 706 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: our lives and they're watching, so we're like the social 707 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: media for them. We're like the reality show for them. Actually, 708 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: but they may or may not like your photo, but 709 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: they may come through to you in a dream. They 710 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: may come through that song on the radio that scent 711 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: or smell that dragonfly, hummingbird, butterfly, penny, whatever those things are. 712 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: That is your pattern or real by the way, but 713 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody needs a reading. They need an understanding. 714 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: So let's say someone walks into your space and they say, 715 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: I've lost my dad, my mom, you know, some a parent. 716 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 2: How does that walk me through the process. 717 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: Sure, So if I'm doing a one on one reading, 718 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: or if I'm standing in front of crowd of. 719 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 2: People, let's do one on one. 720 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 1: So in a one on one session, and even in 721 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: the crowd, nobody's saying anything to me, I'm gonna sit 722 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: with you. I'm going to tell you exactly what I'm seeing, 723 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: what i'm hearing, what i'm feeling. Sometimes if i'm in person, 724 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: I'm going to do psychometry where I'm going to ask 725 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: to hold on to an object of yours so I 726 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 1: could tune into you. Just think key unlocked your energy, 727 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: and I'll make sure that object is only yours and 728 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: yours alone, and that it's not related to anybody who's passed, 729 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: because I don't want to pick up their energy and 730 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: read the energy and not make the connection. And then 731 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: the first part of what I'm gonna do is I'm 732 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 1: gonna look for where you're at in your life right now, 733 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: and I may do that with numerology. I may like 734 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: look at your personal year and kind of see what 735 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: what the lesson is because that'll give me a frame 736 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:17,839 Speaker 1: framework for you and then passes. So in numerology there's 737 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: a lot you can do, right, So every letter has 738 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: a correlation to a number, and there's certain things that 739 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: you can do numerologically. When I say you can do 740 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,439 Speaker 1: an entire chart with numbers, your birth name, your birth date. 741 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: I have found for me, I like two things. I 742 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: like a personal's personal year, which is a yearly vibrational 743 00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,439 Speaker 1: pattern that goes from birthday to birthday, and your life path, 744 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: which is kind of like the number that you are, right, 745 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 1: So like I'm a life path nine, which means I'm 746 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: a life of service. So the life path. You would 747 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:53,439 Speaker 1: take your birth date like the number and edit all across, right, 748 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: So you would take like if seven, do you want 749 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:57,680 Speaker 1: to tell you what's what's your birthday? 750 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,040 Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty seven? Oh, but you're taking the full. 751 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: You have to take the month us the date. 752 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 2: Oh so my month is September, so zero nine. 753 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 1: Right, so that's nine then zero. 754 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 2: Six, that's fifteen, and then nineteen eighty seven is the 755 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 2: year I'm born. 756 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: I think you were four if I did the math correctly, 757 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: but I have to. We're just adding them all up, 758 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: everything straight across it. 759 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:24,919 Speaker 2: So it's fifteen, sixteen, twenty five, thirty three, forty four yeah, 760 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 2: four so. 761 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,880 Speaker 1: You ad everything. Yeah, you keep getting all together for 762 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: your four four Yeah. So your life path is one 763 00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: of always laying the foundation groundwork for the future, working hard, communication, 764 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 1: and progress like that's that's who you are no matter 765 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: where you go, whether you're a chef doing what you're 766 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: doing or a politician like, that's going to be your 767 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: life path For me, no matter what I did, I'm 768 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: going to be a live path nine. For me. Part 769 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: of a life path nine is learning your lessons through 770 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: letting go and loss. Perfect for my field, right because 771 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: what I do I work with people who are dealing 772 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: with loss. 773 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 2: How many life parts are there? 774 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,399 Speaker 1: How may nine nine? There's basically nine and then you 775 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: can count a eleven, twenty two, and thirty three is 776 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: as master numbers? 777 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 2: Would you tell me what the different ones do? So 778 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 2: if someone's a lifelot one, two three. 779 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 1: A numerologist could do that better and can better? I mean, 780 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: I course three like I can give you like you know, 781 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: like you know, no ones are working on you know, 782 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,920 Speaker 1: the independence and it's a life path of individualization. But 783 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: there's there's there's specific people that that's kind of like 784 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 1: their specialty. 785 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 2: We'll get one of them on yeah. 786 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. But what I do like about a personal year 787 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: in a reading is it gives me like, Okay, where 788 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 1: are your lessons coming in? So if I know that 789 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 1: somebody is going into a life path I'm sorry, going 790 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: into a personally year, that's a five. That's a big 791 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: transformational year. Fives are about change, adaptation, and transformation. So 792 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 1: that lets me know, Like, so if I'm reading for 793 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: somebody and I see that, if I see the energy 794 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: of change, I now know time wise, it's probably gonna 795 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: be within this window. So I like that. So that'll 796 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: be the first part of the reading, and then the 797 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:54,759 Speaker 1: rest is going to be like who's coming through? 798 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 2: And then when you say who's coming through? Are you 799 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 2: like closing your eyes? Are you holding their hand? Are 800 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 2: you in the object? I just walk me through the 801 00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:02,879 Speaker 2: vision of that. 802 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: The vision would be me on a headset over the phone, 803 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: probably doodling on a piece of paper and kind of 804 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: focusing on what I'm seeing and hearing and feeling. And 805 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: then I do treat it like an interview. So if 806 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 1: I feel an energy coming in, I would say, Okay, 807 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: this feels to me like an older figure. Why do 808 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,839 Speaker 1: I do that? So I'll talk about people being above 809 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,240 Speaker 1: you to the side, and below above you just means older, 810 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 1: below you just means younger. And then to your side 811 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: would be a contemporary husband, wife, brothers, sistant, cousin, friend. 812 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: So instead of going I feel a man's energy, I 813 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: try a place where I'm feeling it. Where do I 814 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: think they go? And then I want to know what 815 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 1: their relationship is, so I want to feel that. Then 816 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,280 Speaker 1: I want to know any important dates that are connected, 817 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: any initials or names that are connected. When they give 818 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: me names, it's their way of telling me who they are, 819 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 1: who they're with, or somebody who's here. And then it's 820 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,680 Speaker 1: just anchoring myself. And then I like to validate the validations, 821 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: so I like to give something else that supports that. 822 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,439 Speaker 1: And the reason why I do that is it gives 823 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: me the opportunity to build up a trust with who's 824 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: coming through. For when they give me something that the 825 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 1: client doesn't understand. So then I know that I've now 826 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: created some type of control in the environment that any 827 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: variables that they don't understand I can trust. 828 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 2: How do you stop yourself from predicting, projecting, or connecting 829 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 2: in a more logical rational sense that we all would do. 830 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: I think there's a little bit in there. Okay, I 831 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 1: think there is a little bit in there where I 832 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: have to go like, Okay, I'm seeing this, this is 833 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: what it makes me feel like, right, and then I 834 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 1: give that to the person. 835 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 2: Like when you're interpreting the rods and the thorns, is 836 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 2: that your interpretation? 837 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 1: Yes? 838 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 2: Is that something that they get to? Right? 839 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:40,919 Speaker 1: So if I teach somebody how to read taro, right, 840 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: there's seventy eight cards in a deck. Before I have 841 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: them read a book on it or even the little 842 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,839 Speaker 1: pamphlet that comes, I want them to sit with that 843 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 1: deck and create their own notebook, card by card and 844 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: write down what they think that card means. Because when 845 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,640 Speaker 1: they looked at it, against them the feeling. So they 846 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: have to pay attention to that before you learn what 847 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 1: the cards actually mean. So then you have like kind 848 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: of a duel self awareness. 849 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 2: Does that require on their part too. 850 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: A lot. 851 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the challenge is. 852 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: A lot and getting out of your way. And there 853 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: have been a lot of moments where like you get 854 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 1: information and the person says no, but the information doesn't 855 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: change because if you do have that person and that 856 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: person is coming through and the client says no, I'm 857 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: going to go with what they show me because what 858 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 1: I'm hearing from the person is no, that's not who 859 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 1: I want. No, I don't have to think about that. 860 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 1: But what they don't realize is that sometimes behind the 861 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 1: person that they don't want to hear from is the 862 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: person that they do want to hear from. And in 863 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 1: my style, I am a little bit like a dog 864 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: with a bone. I don't give it up because I 865 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: feel like my job is to make sure that I 866 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: say everything that I'm seeing, hearing, and feeling. Because sometimes 867 00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: the biggest validations happens outside of the reading when they 868 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 1: go when they go home, when they talk to their 869 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 1: family and they find out, oh, yeah, we did have that, 870 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 1: but we didn't talk about it. Nobody talked about that. 871 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: It happens a lot. 872 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 2: Do people often have people turn up in their readings 873 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 2: that they don't know, Oh, is it generally people that you. 874 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 1: Know most of the time, it's gonna be. 875 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that would make sense. No, I was just 876 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: wondering most. 877 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: Of the time. But there are moments where like there 878 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: are connections that come in and then the person won't 879 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: know about it until like they talk to somebody. Like 880 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,040 Speaker 1: one of my favorite stories is I had a Saturday 881 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 1: afternoon reading. It was my last reading of the day. 882 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:30,240 Speaker 1: Wonderful woman sat down and I'm bombarding her with information, 883 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 1: like it was very clear to me, and she's like, yeah, 884 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 1: I know how this works. She's like, so I'll go 885 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: in your waiting room and then whoever's out there that 886 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: this is for, we'll let them come in. And I 887 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: looked at her. I was like, there's nobody in my 888 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 1: waiting room and she's like, well, there has to be. 889 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 1: She's like, because none of this is my family. She's like, so, 890 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 1: you know, I get what you do. I'm open. This 891 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: is not for me. And I was like, it's kind 892 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 1: of got to be for you. I said, you're the 893 00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: only one here and she's like, well, it's not like that. 894 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 1: And I said, can I see what you do for 895 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,600 Speaker 1: a living? And she goes me. She's like, I'm a 896 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: grief therapist. I was like, okay, and that's all I said, 897 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 1: and she just went, oh my god, you just brought 898 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: through my last five clients. So she had five clients 899 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: that she saw that day. I brought through the people 900 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: that her clients were coming to see. And she looked 901 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 1: at me and said, what do I do with this? 902 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: She's like, because they're not coming to me for mediumship. 903 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: I was like, you are the psychiatrist or the psychologist. 904 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: I go, You're going to have to figure out how 905 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,040 Speaker 1: to do that on your end. I said, but these 906 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 1: are the validations I came through. So she wound up 907 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: working I believe she wound up working that into a 908 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: you know, hey, I had this experience. Are you open 909 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: to the world of energy? Is this something that you 910 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: have ever considered? And it wasn't to get me clearly clients, 911 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: because there was no need now the information came through 912 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: in that way. So I like those moments because those 913 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: are validations that happen after the fact. 914 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 2: Where do you believe these people who have passed on exist? 915 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 2: Because so does you know? I assume there's a spiritual 916 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 2: or religious version to what happens after death. And then 917 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,479 Speaker 2: there's the material world version of what happens after death. 918 00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 2: Like in my tradition, carma and reincarnation are really prominent 919 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 2: belief sets in the idea that people are taking birth 920 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 2: as could be animals could be, people could be you know, regenerating. Right, 921 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 2: And there's lots of Easterns. 922 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 1: In my belief system as well. Right, maybe not so 923 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: much into the animals of it, but for the consciousness 924 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 1: to keep coming back here to the classroom of life. 925 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 1: And that probably is the thing that freaked me out 926 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 1: the most when my mom passed, because I was nineteen 927 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: and I'm like, if I live to be ninety years old, 928 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: when I cross over, I want to see her. I 929 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: don't want to get there and have somebody say to me, like, 930 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: you know, you missed her. She's in Jersey now, like 931 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: you know. That was like a concern for me. 932 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 2: She doesn't look like that anymore reincarnation. 933 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: She's not that energy. So I've talked to people who 934 00:42:56,160 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: do the reincarnation past life progression like therapy stuff, because 935 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 1: I was like, go to the specialist, get the information, 936 00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 1: find the data. And the way they explained it to 937 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: me is that if the entirety of the consciousness is 938 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: not necessary to incarnate, then you could still make your 939 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: connection with the oversoul, the bigger super consciousness, even though 940 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: there might be multiple lifetimes that that person is still 941 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: working through. I'm like, I could work with that. That 942 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: made me feel that made me feel confident. But I'll 943 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 1: see her again. 944 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 2: You were saying that there's a space between which that 945 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,919 Speaker 2: person is reincarnated or not. Is where you're getting them. 946 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 2: And so if they've already fully reincarnated as a new being, 947 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 2: you can't. 948 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: No, I'm saying that I don't think that. I don't 949 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 1: believe that we fully reincarnate in the entirety. So like 950 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 1: if we take this glass of water, the amount of water, 951 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 1: if this whole thing is consciousness, our soul, a portion 952 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: of this might have multiple incarnations different periods of time, simultaneously, oh, simultaneous, 953 00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 1: simultaneously over decades around the globe, you know. And this 954 00:43:57,360 --> 00:43:58,680 Speaker 1: is where I say to people. 955 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 2: Do you mean simultaneously like the multiverse, like having multiple 956 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 2: versions of the same person, or that that consciousness has 957 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,479 Speaker 2: passed through multiple bodies over that yes, right. 958 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,720 Speaker 1: Okay, fine, the same that at different times. 959 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 2: Right, So yeah, Eastern traditions would believe that the consciousness 960 00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 2: is what remains the same, and that same consciousness passes 961 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 2: through from the body that looks like me today to 962 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 2: whichever body I end up in my next life, to 963 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 2: whichever body I had in my past life. But it's 964 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 2: the same consciousness that has lived in all those bodies, right, 965 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,919 Speaker 2: has had multiple mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters. 966 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,560 Speaker 1: And you've been in the same maybe family tapestry essentially 967 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 1: just in different different roles or connections. But going back 968 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,400 Speaker 1: to the like where are they? I equate it to 969 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 1: the Internet. When people ask me that question, I go, 970 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 1: where's the Internet? And they get quiet and they go, 971 00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,279 Speaker 1: you can't go there with a physical body, but you 972 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: can access it, so you can access this dimension. So 973 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 1: it's like the Internet. It's it's it's a dimension that 974 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 1: you can access and you can connect with and you 975 00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 1: can communicate within too and through. 976 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 2: But often that you're saying that you're not interacting with 977 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: them in their new form. You're interacting them at the 978 00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 2: consciousness struggle which has lived all of these forms, correct, 979 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 2: and you're just connecting them to the current person or right. 980 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 2: So experience of that. 981 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 1: To give it as a different analogy, it's like if 982 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 1: you take a famous actor, you know that actor has 983 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,240 Speaker 1: had so many movies, Yeah, in so many different roles, 984 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 1: but at the core they're the actor. Yeah, with different 985 00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 1: character names and different Backstories's great analogy. 986 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:28,440 Speaker 2: I like that. 987 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: That's how I look at it. 988 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, right, So you're connecting to Tom Cruise from 989 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 2: the first top Gun. 990 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: That's exactly the analogy I was thinking in my head. 991 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, not Tom Cruise from the Rethon Cocktail, right, yeah, 992 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 2: or anything else. Yeah, that's interesting to hear. That's I've 993 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 2: never heard it explain that way. And yeah, Carma reincarnation 994 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 2: has been something that's always fascinated me, and Ian Stevenson's 995 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 2: book Old Souls was always a beautiful scientific exploration of it. 996 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,840 Speaker 1: I found doctor Brian Weiss when you look at many lives, 997 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,839 Speaker 1: many masters, and all of his materials, he was very 998 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: influential for me, you know, at that point in my 999 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: life because I needed to know, like, you know, if 1000 00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 1: I cause I had a very early experience where I 1001 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,360 Speaker 1: was taking on a cruise as a kid and Puerto 1002 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 1: Rico was the first stop and walking through Old San Juan, 1003 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: I became kind of paralyzed in the middle of one 1004 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 1: of the streets and the person I was with kept 1005 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 1: walking my aunts and she came back and she looked 1006 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: at me and she said, what's up. I went, I 1007 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 1: was here before, but I wasn't John like at twelve. 1008 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,879 Speaker 1: I said that, so, you know, get that perplexed look 1009 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: like you haven't left New York. What are he's talking about? 1010 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 1: And I was like, no, there's something at the end 1011 00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 1: of this block with birds and nuns. And at the 1012 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: end of the block there was like remnants of a 1013 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: building that had a plaque that said, you know, a 1014 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 1: miracle happened there, and it was next to something that 1015 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 1: said park at the Palomas. A twelve year old was 1016 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: like help, like like why do I know this? Like 1017 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 1: what does that mean? And for three years I really 1018 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: suppressed that until I had that reading. And then when 1019 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 1: I had that reading, and that sent me down the 1020 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 1: spiral of studying, somebody talked about reincarnation. You know, your 1021 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 1: raised Catholic, reincarnation is not an option for you. If 1022 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,440 Speaker 1: your Catholic like that, that is not something that they 1023 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: discussed in you know, religious CCD. But now here this 1024 00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 1: you know book I'm reading is talking about different philosophies 1025 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,319 Speaker 1: and reincarnation is one of them. And right next to 1026 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: that was something called past life recall, and past life 1027 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,360 Speaker 1: recall would be where you had the exact experience that 1028 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,040 Speaker 1: I did, which was you're in a place that you 1029 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: have never ever been before and you know it and 1030 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,920 Speaker 1: add in the phrase, but I wasn't. John just kind 1031 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: of like was like, oh my god, wow, this I 1032 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: had that. So I kind of feel like when people 1033 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: do a deep dive into the world of energy or spirituality, 1034 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 1: they'll have those same awakenings. The important part about it 1035 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,880 Speaker 1: is to keep the ego out of it, because the 1036 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: ego gets in the way of your progress. You need 1037 00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 1: a little bit of it to kind of like go 1038 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 1: like okay. But soon as soon as the ego self 1039 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: and this world marry, the lessons stop, and I think 1040 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,840 Speaker 1: we have to continue to be I'm forty years in 1041 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 1: this year. I'm still a student of the universe. I 1042 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 1: still want to be better. I'm still evolving into like 1043 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: who I'm supposed to be because I'm still here in 1044 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: this body, which means I'm still learning. 1045 00:48:11,960 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 2: For someone who feels like the process feels spooky or 1046 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,240 Speaker 2: we've seen too many exorcist movies, or you know, whatever 1047 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 2: it is, it's that I think the visual that you 1048 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 2: have is from movies because you've never seen. 1049 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: It the stereotype in real life. 1050 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 2: And so you have this stereotype version of like God, 1051 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,400 Speaker 2: you length spirits back in and like they're coming to 1052 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 2: visit you, and you know that how much of that 1053 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 2: is real? 1054 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: True? 1055 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 2: How does that? How does that fit in the world. 1056 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 1: But I think we have two motivations in life, right, 1057 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: fear or love. So if we're coming from the place 1058 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 1: of love, then we understand that where there's love, there's connection. 1059 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: It's fine. When we're coming from the place of fear, 1060 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 1: that means that we're allowing some religious dogma to get 1061 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: in the way. You know, when somebody wants to throw 1062 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:51,840 Speaker 1: the Bible out and start you know, quoting Bible based 1063 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: Bible verses and all that kind of stuff, save it, Like, 1064 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to be like, I'm not going to do 1065 00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,560 Speaker 1: that with you. There's a lot of stuff that's written 1066 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: in the Good Book where it's just ridiculous and preposterous 1067 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 1: and people argue over it and bad things happen as 1068 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: a result. Right, So for me, it's energetic based. I 1069 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 1: feel like I'm painting a portrait of energy, and how 1070 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: somebody frames that portrait is their religious upbringing or not. 1071 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 1: But I see this as being more scientific and energy based, 1072 00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 1: and that's not scary for me. That's educational. So I 1073 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 1: feel like I lean into the education, I lean into 1074 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 1: the empowerment. I lead into helping to enlighten people in 1075 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 1: there on their path, like I'm wherever I'm meeting them, 1076 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 1: If I'm meeting them here today for the first time, 1077 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,359 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that this is sparking something in them where 1078 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: they're going like, oh I should I should meditate? Yes, yes, 1079 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: you should meditate. Oh I should learn about you know, 1080 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,600 Speaker 1: my numerology. Yes, that has nothing to do with me. 1081 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,080 Speaker 1: That has to do with them, Like they multiple books 1082 00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,359 Speaker 1: that people can go do. So I feel like part 1083 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: of my job is to raise awareness and teach and 1084 00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 1: wherever I meet that person, helping them on their journey 1085 00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:55,880 Speaker 1: of grief, that's my job. 1086 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:57,879 Speaker 2: Yeah. I appreciate what you said at the start, which 1087 00:49:57,920 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 2: was this idea of we usually come to this process 1088 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 2: wanting to check if the person's okay, but it actually 1089 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 2: becomes about the person who's checking to become healed and grow. 1090 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 2: Talk to me about grief and where we almost miss 1091 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,239 Speaker 2: out on the growth or how we don't process as well. 1092 00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,239 Speaker 1: We can be here four hours on that one. Let's 1093 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: start with let's say somebody who is diagnosed in their 1094 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: terminal Right, many times families will not tell the person 1095 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 1: that they're terminal because that would just be too hard 1096 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: for them. The soul knows they're leaving, the consciousness knows 1097 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,479 Speaker 1: that's going to be passing. So now we're just going 1098 00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:36,959 Speaker 1: to what wait a month, three months, six months until 1099 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:40,399 Speaker 1: that person leaves the physical world, and nothing gets said, 1100 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:45,319 Speaker 1: nothing gets talked about, nothing's communicated, and I think we 1101 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:49,759 Speaker 1: rob that person, that individual, as well as ourselves. The 1102 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:53,239 Speaker 1: opportunity is to say the things that maybe you want 1103 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 1: to hear or need to hear, or need to say, 1104 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,359 Speaker 1: or they need to say. So I think, starting from 1105 00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 1: a place of where does grief really begin, it comes 1106 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 1: in with the understanding that something's ending. Right, So you 1107 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: can grieve the ending of high school. You can grieve 1108 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: the ending of college, you can grieve the ending of 1109 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 1: your job, there's no death in that. You can grieve 1110 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,840 Speaker 1: the ending of a relationship, the ending of a friendship. 1111 00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 1: So grief is grief in various different ways. But when 1112 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,759 Speaker 1: we're talking about not acknowledging that grief that's the problem. 1113 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 1: So I think we have to start with acknowledging the 1114 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 1: grief and then expressing it, not suppressing it. So say 1115 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:30,120 Speaker 1: the things that you need to say to the people 1116 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: while they're here, and give them the opportunity to say 1117 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 1: it back. Because so many people sit in front of 1118 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 1: me with that look of did they know that I 1119 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,400 Speaker 1: love them? I don't know? Did you tell them? 1120 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 2: You know? 1121 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 1: Tell them say the things you know. Have those conversations. 1122 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 1: If you know somebody's passing and they're not going to 1123 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 1: be here in ten years, but you're getting you know, 1124 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: you're going to get married in five years, ask them 1125 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,320 Speaker 1: what they want to know about your wedding. Have that conversation. 1126 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 1: I think it's not morbid or morose or maudelin. I 1127 00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:00,760 Speaker 1: think it's healthy about grief. 1128 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's almost have you ever had anyone almost 1129 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 2: when you're reading where they go back and go, yeah, 1130 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 2: you never told me how much you loved me? Like 1131 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 2: can it get well? 1132 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh oh my god, oh yeah, yes, very much so, 1133 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: or the release of something like where they're they're hearing 1134 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 1: something in the reading. I remember reading for someone she 1135 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: was seventy years old and her stepdad came through and 1136 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 1: the message was it's not your fault, like his passing 1137 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,880 Speaker 1: was not her fault. And she had had an argument 1138 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: with him and went to high school and he took 1139 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: his own life and she lived with that for fifty years, 1140 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: sixty years, whoever, all she was feeling like it was 1141 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: her responsibility. Her whole life she lived with that. So 1142 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: you know, that's a that's an extreme example, but I 1143 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,919 Speaker 1: think there were a lot of people that just need 1144 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,800 Speaker 1: to have the reinforced understanding, right, So I want everybody 1145 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: to do it now, like say the things now so 1146 00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: that if you you know, I have a thing with 1147 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: my kids right when they were younger, I would say 1148 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: to them, in case I get abducted by aliens. They 1149 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 1: would laugh, but then that usually was followed up with 1150 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: a really heavy conversation. So I couched it in a 1151 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 1: way that they would participate in it. And you know, 1152 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: I think my son was twelve. We were on a 1153 00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,359 Speaker 1: walk and he goes, Daddy, I get the whole psychic thing. 1154 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,400 Speaker 1: He goes, but what age should you become obsessed with 1155 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,759 Speaker 1: alien abduction? And I was like I'm not. And he's like, 1156 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 1: you kind of are, and I'm like, no, dude, I'm 1157 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 1: really not, like, why are you saying that? He goes, well, 1158 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:30,759 Speaker 1: always say in case I get abducted by aliens. That's 1159 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 1: so I laughed. I was like, well, I think you're 1160 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 1: old enough to understand this. I go TuS. I go mean, 1161 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 1: if I'm no longer existing on this dimension and I'm 1162 00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 1: now existing on a different dimension, I'd want you to 1163 00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:40,800 Speaker 1: know the things that we talked about. He goes, do 1164 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: you mean like in case you died? I went yes. 1165 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 1: He says, well, that's not funny, I go, not meant 1166 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: to be funny, meant to be a conversation starter. So 1167 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 1: for your listeners, your viewers, use that phrase, watch the 1168 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,720 Speaker 1: people's reactions. They'll laugh. But then you you're ice breaking. 1169 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: You're literally kind of setting up the opportunity to have 1170 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 1: a converse that might be serious. 1171 00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. What I love that. I really love that. And 1172 00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 2: I think it's so important to be able to normalize 1173 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:10,239 Speaker 2: some of these conversations because it's so much harder to 1174 00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 2: change afterwards. And I think part of my piece is 1175 00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,440 Speaker 2: because I've always lived in a way to say how 1176 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,400 Speaker 2: I feel in the moment and say what I believe 1177 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 2: and make sure people know how love they are and 1178 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,320 Speaker 2: even if they didn't know how to reciprocate or respond 1179 00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 2: to it in the moment, I was always happy to 1180 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 2: express how I felt because I just never wanted to 1181 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 2: feel that way. 1182 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 1: You want to hear a really kind of kind of 1183 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 1: cool but somewhat unique thing that happens by a bit. 1184 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,680 Speaker 1: So I could be reading for somebody and I could 1185 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,080 Speaker 1: bring mom and dad through, I could bring their husband through, 1186 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,399 Speaker 1: I could bring their grandmother through, I could bring their 1187 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: friends through. The moment I bring in their pet, the 1188 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 1: moment their dog comes up, their cat comes through, that's 1189 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,520 Speaker 1: the moment where they're going to lose it. They're going 1190 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: to absolutely lose it, and sometimes in a really really 1191 00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:00,399 Speaker 1: big way. And I'll, you know, I'll kind of make 1192 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 1: a little like joke and be like, wow, look at that, 1193 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 1: Like all your family right now is going the dog 1194 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,319 Speaker 1: rates more than I do. Right, But here's the thing, 1195 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 1: what does that dog do to that person? Unconditional love? 1196 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: That pet shows you unconditional love. It's a reciprocal energy. 1197 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,399 Speaker 1: You love it, it loves you. There's nothing that gets 1198 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:21,400 Speaker 1: in the way of that. So I use it as 1199 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: a teaching tool when it happens, and say, listen, look 1200 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 1: at what took place. It's about connection, It's about communication. 1201 00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 1: So I always want people to say the things. You know, 1202 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 1: if you're leaving the house, I don't care you're in 1203 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 1: a rush. Let the people that you're leaving know how 1204 00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:36,520 Speaker 1: you feel about them. Just what if you don't come home? 1205 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? What about when people have had really poor experiences 1206 00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 2: with people and so they're coming to you because there's trauma. 1207 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 2: There may have been emotional or other types of abuse. 1208 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 2: There may have been people have just had painful experiences 1209 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:54,200 Speaker 2: with this person. But they love them too. It's messy, right, Like, 1210 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 2: that's that's what love is. It's not oh I love them, 1211 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 2: I missed them. It could be complicated, and I imagine 1212 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 2: if they come there's some layers to their love that 1213 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:07,359 Speaker 2: need to be explored. How do you help them and 1214 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:11,880 Speaker 2: guide them through this already difficult process, but with the 1215 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 2: emotions that could come back of like yeah, you didn't 1216 00:56:13,680 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 2: tell me you loved me, I treated you that way 1217 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 2: because of X or whatever it may be, Like, how 1218 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:20,359 Speaker 2: does that work? What does that look like? 1219 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 1: So one again, for people who are listening, I want 1220 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,480 Speaker 1: to establish that everything that comes through is going to 1221 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 1: come through in pieces and it's not conversational. It'll come 1222 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 1: across in pieces and I will symbolically interpret what that is. 1223 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 1: That's number one. Once I go down that path of 1224 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 1: helping them to understand and establish what's coming through, and 1225 00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:40,280 Speaker 1: I know it's being validated by the way I validate stuff. 1226 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: It is not always easy when you are hearing from 1227 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 1: someone who's crossed that wasn't that exact relationship dynamic. But 1228 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:51,560 Speaker 1: oftentimes the person that's coming through is coming through to 1229 00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 1: assuage that feeling of guilt or disappointment or anger to 1230 00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 1: help them. The hard part about that is that as 1231 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,440 Speaker 1: the medium, you kind of feel like you now represent 1232 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,399 Speaker 1: that person, so you could feel that coming back at you. 1233 00:57:05,000 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: So I'm not a therapist, and I will say, I 1234 00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 1: don't know if you work with a therapist, but maybe 1235 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,359 Speaker 1: you may want to have a conversation with someone that 1236 00:57:11,400 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 1: can help you move through this. 1237 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 2: Right, So you actually encourage them to meet experts in 1238 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 2: particular things. 1239 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,400 Speaker 1: Oh god, yeah, I think a lot of a lot 1240 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 1: of I mean, I've had I've had moments where I 1241 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 1: sit with someone for about five minutes and I'm very 1242 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 1: clear and I go, do you trust me? And they go, 1243 00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 1: of course, I trust you. That's why I'm here. And 1244 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:33,479 Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm I'm I'm supposed to get you someplace else. 1245 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 1: What you're looking for is not me, And they're like, 1246 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,400 Speaker 1: what do you mean. I'm like, you need to work 1247 00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 1: with an astrologer where you're at, I can't help you. 1248 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: I could read you, but it's not going to help you. 1249 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 1: And I think it's going to be a waste of 1250 00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: your time and money. So how about we save your 1251 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 1: money and let's just have a chat. And I'll usually 1252 00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 1: spend the time with them anyway, And then I find 1253 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,280 Speaker 1: the astrologer that I think that they're supposed to work with, 1254 00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 1: and I always trust that. 1255 00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:00,959 Speaker 2: What do you think grief teach us about love? 1256 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: Grief is the other side of love. And if I 1257 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: used to work in the hospital and when people would 1258 00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: have open heart surgery, they're given, you know, the heart 1259 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 1: pillow that you're supposed to hold on to so if 1260 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: you cough or sneeze that you don't affect your scores 1261 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 1: and the surgery. And I always imagine that heart pillow. 1262 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 1: One says love and the other side says grief. And 1263 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,919 Speaker 1: I think throughout our lives we're holding the love side 1264 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,320 Speaker 1: close but when we lose a person, it flips to grief, 1265 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 1: and I think honoring our grief, honoring our feelings, not 1266 00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 1: ignoring them, gets us back to the other side of 1267 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 1: that pillow, which is the other side of grief, and 1268 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 1: that's love. So I think grief teaches us about love 1269 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 1: and appreciation and communication, and that's the goal. 1270 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,080 Speaker 2: What do you say to someone who just feels like 1271 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 2: they'll never experience joy again. 1272 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 1: I like to validate their feelings and say that you 1273 00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 1: won't feel the kind of joy that you had before, 1274 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 1: but you can find joy in different ways and take 1275 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 1: them on that journey with them, so it's not just 1276 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: the absence physically, but that you still have the connection 1277 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 1: with them. I can never remember which I never remember 1278 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 1: what it's called, but there's Japanese art where when things 1279 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 1: get broken, yes, and they put it back together and 1280 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:36,120 Speaker 1: it's got the golden glue. It actually highlights the cracks. 1281 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 1: I feel like grief is highlighting the cracks. We put 1282 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 1: ourselves back together because we have to, but we're never 1283 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:46,120 Speaker 1: seen the same way again. How could you you know? 1284 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 1: My son's middle name is after two boys that have passed, 1285 00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 1: both named Michael, and one of the one of the Boys, 1286 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,560 Speaker 1: The Boy's Man. He was a firefighter in nine to eleven, 1287 00:59:56,920 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 1: Michael Kiefer and his when I've read for her, she's 1288 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,560 Speaker 1: a powerhouse of a lady, powerhouse of a mom. And 1289 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 1: she told me a story once and she said, somebody 1290 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 1: asked her how you doing, and she said, well, there 1291 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:15,760 Speaker 1: was the me before nine to eleven and there's the 1292 01:00:15,800 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 1: me after nine eleven. No greater phrase can be said, 1293 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:21,320 Speaker 1: because we all have that. There's the U before the 1294 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,440 Speaker 1: event and there's the U after the event. And I 1295 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,200 Speaker 1: think when you recognize that there's a different version of 1296 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 1: you now and again, that's in every way that you 1297 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,479 Speaker 1: can grieve. By the way, it's not just death right. 1298 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: If you've gone through a divorce, there's the you before 1299 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 1: the divorce, there's you after the divorce. If you broke 1300 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 1: up with a long term friendship, there's the you before that. 1301 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 1: Do you after that? How how do you navigate life 1302 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 1: in this new way? Trying to be the old you 1303 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 1: can't doesn't work. 1304 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that validation piece is so important huge. Even hearing 1305 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 2: you just say to someone that, yeah, you won't feel 1306 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 2: the joy you felt before. In one sense, it's so 1307 01:00:56,800 --> 01:01:02,320 Speaker 2: freeing because we're trying so hard to feel that joy 1308 01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 2: again and knowing that you won't is liberating because it 1309 01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:10,480 Speaker 2: stops you from chasing and pursuing something that isn't going 1310 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 2: to happen again. 1311 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:12,560 Speaker 1: But it also could be a free fall. 1312 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:13,680 Speaker 2: Tell me about that. 1313 01:01:13,880 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: So when my mom passed the morning that she passed, 1314 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 1: I had to go long story, but pick up a 1315 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:21,040 Speaker 1: tuxedo to be in a family wedding that I promised 1316 01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 1: I would I would do in case she did pass 1317 01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 1: And she'd passed right for the wedding. So that morning 1318 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 1: I was like sitting in my car and I looked 1319 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,360 Speaker 1: up at the window of the room that she had 1320 01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 1: just passed in maybe three hours earlier, and my first 1321 01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 1: thought was, nobody's ever going to care what time I 1322 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 1: come home again. I had no boundaries, and I was like, 1323 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 1: that's a scary feeling. There was nobody to tell me no, 1324 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: there was nobody to stop me. There was nobody that 1325 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:51,040 Speaker 1: was going to be like you shouldn't do that, because 1326 01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 1: nobody would probably dare at that time. It's a scary feeling. 1327 01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 1: So in life, when you find yourself in a place 1328 01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: of questioning something like I did right, and you could 1329 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 1: be thirty six doing that, you have a feeling that 1330 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,920 Speaker 1: could be like free falling, and that's a scary place. 1331 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 1: You know, you don't know if there's a net, You 1332 01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,080 Speaker 1: don't know if somebody's going to catch you. And then 1333 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,560 Speaker 1: with that grief, maybe you stop talking to people and 1334 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 1: you shut down, or maybe you start drinking, or maybe 1335 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 1: somebody puts on forty seven pounds, whatever the thing is, 1336 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 1: So it could be a It could be a scary 1337 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 1: thing to recognize that life's never going to be the same. 1338 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:30,920 Speaker 1: Joy is not going to be there, So how do 1339 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 1: you work through that? You know, having a reading not 1340 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:37,360 Speaker 1: going to fix you. Having an understanding about readings can 1341 01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 1: do can help give you an understanding of putting one 1342 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,520 Speaker 1: foot in front of the other knowing that there's a 1343 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,680 Speaker 1: survival of consciousness and that they're still they're still with us. 1344 01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:49,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, we've all heard the cliche time heals or wounds, 1345 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,640 Speaker 2: But sometimes it feels like things get harder as you 1346 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 2: get further away from them. 1347 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:56,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, because sometimes it feels like it was a different lifetime. 1348 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,640 Speaker 1: Sometimes it feels like like like it's a it's a book. 1349 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 1: Like I had so many amazing experiences with my mom 1350 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 1: after she passed, and I shared them, and you know, 1351 01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 1: there's like a whole purple colde story I put in 1352 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 1: my first book and one of the things that I 1353 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:18,400 Speaker 1: remember One day was probably like maybe seven or eight years 1354 01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 1: after she died, and I was telling the story, and 1355 01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 1: I got very good at explaining the details of the story. 1356 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 1: I knew the beats of the story. I knew how 1357 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:27,840 Speaker 1: people are going to react to the story. And then 1358 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 1: the story was over and I remember not feeling it 1359 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:35,440 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, oh, that's not good. I'm like, 1360 01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 1: this is like a really personal, powerful moment for me, 1361 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 1: and I think I'm not going to share that for 1362 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,880 Speaker 1: a while. And I stopped telling it, and I remember 1363 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 1: being at events and people were like, oh my god, 1364 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: can you tell your mom's purple code story? And I'd 1365 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,959 Speaker 1: be like, you know, I actually I can't write now, 1366 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 1: I said a boundary because I wasn't feeling it anymore. 1367 01:03:56,040 --> 01:04:00,920 Speaker 1: It almost became like flat. It was too powerful of 1368 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:03,400 Speaker 1: a story for me, and I needed to own it again. 1369 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,920 Speaker 1: So I think sometimes when you're grieving, we go to 1370 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:13,640 Speaker 1: places that become superficial, and I think that we have 1371 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 1: to make sure that we never lose the depth of 1372 01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:19,240 Speaker 1: what that emotion is and that depth of what the 1373 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 1: person is. And for anybody that's watching this journalize, write 1374 01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,320 Speaker 1: down your feelings. Don't forget what it is that you're feeling, 1375 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:30,680 Speaker 1: because you want to make sure that you're you're honoring yourself, 1376 01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,280 Speaker 1: but you're also honoring them, because sometimes we go through 1377 01:04:33,320 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 1: these moments of like I'm gonna forget this, I'm gonna 1378 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 1: forget their voice, I'm going to forget that this happened. 1379 01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna forget write it down. 1380 01:04:39,160 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, my wife was extremely close to our grandmother who 1381 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 2: passed away a couple of weeks ago. Oh sorry, and 1382 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,400 Speaker 2: she was ninety one I think when she passed away, 1383 01:04:47,440 --> 01:04:50,840 Speaker 2: and she had a beautiful send off and really special 1384 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 2: and peaceful, and it's amazing. My wife was by her 1385 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:58,640 Speaker 2: bedside for four months in hospital and home herever. And 1386 01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 2: my wife the force probably like maybe now like six 1387 01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:06,479 Speaker 2: seven years ago to interview her grandma, and so sheared 1388 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 2: all this video of asking her questions and stories, and 1389 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 2: so when she was preparing her speech for the funeral, 1390 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 2: which was such an emotional thing for her to do, 1391 01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,120 Speaker 2: it was filled with all these stories that she had 1392 01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 2: from this video that they would never have known. And yeah, 1393 01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 2: I feel like there's such a need to interview your 1394 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 2: parents and interview your families before they're not here anymore. 1395 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,680 Speaker 2: I love that because there's so many stories your parents 1396 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:36,240 Speaker 2: haven't told you, even though you think you know them. 1397 01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 2: And I did that interview my mom maybe a few 1398 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:42,480 Speaker 2: years back now, maybe five six years ago, just at 1399 01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:44,680 Speaker 2: the dinner table. We didn't record it. I wanted to 1400 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 2: record it, but I learned so much about my mom 1401 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 2: that would never have known and it brings you so 1402 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 2: much closer. And so whether you're an interviewer or not, 1403 01:05:52,680 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 2: it's a beautiful thing to do while someone's still here. 1404 01:05:56,080 --> 01:05:59,440 Speaker 1: Shared connection, Yeah, to share a connection. Yeah. 1405 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:01,360 Speaker 2: What do you do when you meet someone who tells 1406 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 2: you they're stuck in their grief and it's just stuck 1407 01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,200 Speaker 2: with processing. I'm sure you hear that a lot. 1408 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 1: So when I hear someone stuck, I usually try to 1409 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:12,760 Speaker 1: get them to go work with it if they're not 1410 01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: working with a counselor on some level. And sometimes they'll 1411 01:06:15,360 --> 01:06:17,000 Speaker 1: tell me, oh, I did that didn't work, and I 1412 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 1: will remind them that there's multiple counselors. It might not 1413 01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 1: have worked with one. Maybe find someone that you do 1414 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,960 Speaker 1: click with, but I will look at trying to get 1415 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 1: them to have their astrological chart done. Here's why. If 1416 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:32,160 Speaker 1: they look at their chart when that person passed, it's 1417 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 1: like snapshot of like what was the syllabus you were 1418 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 1: spiritually supposed to be learning. And I like people to 1419 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 1: look at that because then it gives it gives a 1420 01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:44,960 Speaker 1: meaning and a context to the pain. It's like diagnosing 1421 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:48,960 Speaker 1: an energetic thing. I like that. I like people to 1422 01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,000 Speaker 1: do that. And this is where, like, you know, people 1423 01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:54,320 Speaker 1: are like he's talking about neurologists, he's talking about an astrologer, 1424 01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:56,360 Speaker 1: he's talking about I do that a lot. I feel 1425 01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 1: like as a as a practitioner, for me, it's going 1426 01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: to be like how do I best serve this client? 1427 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 2: No, absolutely, I mean I coach people and I'm constantly 1428 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:08,880 Speaker 2: introducing them to sleep experts and therapists, right. 1429 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 1: And you probably know a lot about all of the 1430 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 1: things that you're sending them to, but it's not what 1431 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:16,720 Speaker 1: you do. 1432 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:19,800 Speaker 2: It's not my expertise and I may not be correct. 1433 01:07:19,880 --> 01:07:22,920 Speaker 2: It's specifically trained in it, and so it's better that 1434 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 2: someone else can come in and step in. And I 1435 01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:27,600 Speaker 2: think people need groups of people around them to heal, 1436 01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 2: not one person and again going back to the ego point, 1437 01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 2: I don't believe I have any power to heal anyone 1438 01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,240 Speaker 2: or be the person who solves all their problems, and 1439 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 2: often I found a collective is healthier for that person 1440 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 2: as well. 1441 01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:39,960 Speaker 1: Agreed. 1442 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:41,360 Speaker 2: I was going to ask you, though, can you talk 1443 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 2: to us about the difference with real astrology and then 1444 01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 2: your horoscope that the version that has become astrology today, 1445 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:53,000 Speaker 2: because I think the challenges and I asked that question 1446 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 2: because astrology again is a big part of Eastern traditions 1447 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:59,960 Speaker 2: and I have not only heard of, but seeing incredible 1448 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:05,440 Speaker 2: things happen through astrology from true astrologers who are not 1449 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 2: doing you know, your daily. 1450 01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 1: Horoscope right now, the pop astrology. 1451 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, not the pop astrology. Again, just what's the difference, 1452 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:15,440 Speaker 2: because I think when people say go and see an astrology, 1453 01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:17,040 Speaker 2: it's like, I don't think we even know what that 1454 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:17,679 Speaker 2: means today. 1455 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:21,599 Speaker 1: So by my definition, it's somebody who's dedicated their lives 1456 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 1: to understanding and they still are on their journey of 1457 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, deep dive learning, delving into the past to 1458 01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:31,559 Speaker 1: understand the present and maybe what the future looks like. 1459 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:34,439 Speaker 1: It means having your natal chart looked at, which you 1460 01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 1: would need your birthday, the time and location that you 1461 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,320 Speaker 1: were born, and then if you don't have that time, 1462 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: they can do something called rectification where you give them 1463 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,320 Speaker 1: events in your life and then they kind of like 1464 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:48,400 Speaker 1: retrofit where they think your planets are and then they 1465 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 1: will kind of look at your life and kind of 1466 01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 1: tell you who you are. 1467 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 2: Now. 1468 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,240 Speaker 1: The control freaking me when I have a client that 1469 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to send to an astrologer. So I have 1470 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 1: a platform called Evolved Plus right onovolf Plus. I have 1471 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,559 Speaker 1: various creators that I've worked with that I send my 1472 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 1: clients to. Certain clients need certain people with their expertise 1473 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 1: and what they do, so I usually give them a directive. 1474 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:15,559 Speaker 1: So I look at astrology like an MRI. You don't 1475 01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 1: MRI your entire body most of the time. I mean 1476 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 1: you can't know, but you normally you would just you're 1477 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,599 Speaker 1: going for a specific reason. So I would say, okay, well, 1478 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 1: if you're in Ares, then you're going to have Saturn 1479 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 1: in your chart. Maybe go see how Saturn's going to 1480 01:09:28,479 --> 01:09:30,680 Speaker 1: play out for you. So now there's an intro into 1481 01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:34,800 Speaker 1: your chart. But in that specific example, I would say, hey, 1482 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 1: I lost my person on December thirteenth, twenty twenty two. 1483 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,040 Speaker 1: What is the lesson? 1484 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 2: You know? 1485 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 1: I had a reading with John Edward and he said 1486 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,599 Speaker 1: that I should look at like what's the lesson I'm 1487 01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:48,519 Speaker 1: supposed to be learning from that. I think the more 1488 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:51,960 Speaker 1: information we get regarding the lessons we're here to learn 1489 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:57,000 Speaker 1: can help us to move through whatever the stagnant, stuck 1490 01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:57,600 Speaker 1: part of it is. 1491 01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a better question too, as opposed to what's 1492 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,400 Speaker 2: going on in my life right now? Yes, which is 1493 01:10:03,439 --> 01:10:05,880 Speaker 2: a bit more broad and open, right, and kind of 1494 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 2: could be like, yeah, well, right now, this planet is 1495 01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 2: making this happen, and this it's more like a weather forecast, right, 1496 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:13,120 Speaker 2: rather than being specific and like what lesson am I 1497 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,680 Speaker 2: going to learn right now? What it's needed of me 1498 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 2: right now? 1499 01:10:16,280 --> 01:10:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm also not a fan of the word predictions, right, 1500 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:20,280 Speaker 1: so like when I'm doing a session or if I 1501 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:23,040 Speaker 1: see somebody as a practitioner and they kind of predict stuff, 1502 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 1: I'm more of a projector. I like to say, these 1503 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:28,600 Speaker 1: are projections from where you are. If you don't like 1504 01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:30,400 Speaker 1: some of this, try to make the changes now so 1505 01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:32,760 Speaker 1: you can adapt that, right, No different than health, Like, 1506 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: right now your test results are showing this your lab 1507 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:37,840 Speaker 1: results are showing this. If you don't change this, these 1508 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 1: numbers are going to go up. That can cause this 1509 01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:42,600 Speaker 1: tell my brain works. I used to work in the laboratory, 1510 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,800 Speaker 1: so it's like when I'm doing reading, I'm seeing the 1511 01:10:44,920 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 1: energy projections and I'm like, hey, this is the line 1512 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 1: of probability that you're flying on. You know, you may 1513 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,040 Speaker 1: want to shift this, or hey this is awesome. You know, 1514 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:53,240 Speaker 1: guess up, keep going. 1515 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think that's the language switch that's needed in 1516 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 2: some of these traditions too. It's because when you think 1517 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:02,120 Speaker 2: about the commissions you have with your doctors, there's a 1518 01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 2: lot of diagnosing going on. They're the ones you could 1519 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 2: read the scan you can't write, Like if if I 1520 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 2: swor scan in my spine, I wouldn't know the difference 1521 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:12,800 Speaker 2: because I'm not trained, But I trust the doctor knows 1522 01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:13,639 Speaker 2: how to do that. 1523 01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,400 Speaker 1: Correct hopefully yeah, hopefully, hopefully Yeah. 1524 01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:19,759 Speaker 2: How do we How do you honor your grief without 1525 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 2: letting it define you? 1526 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:25,280 Speaker 1: Living with it like I feel like owning it, living 1527 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:28,320 Speaker 1: with it, saying the person's name, making sure that you're 1528 01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:32,880 Speaker 1: you're including them, journalizing. Sometimes people feel like nobody wants 1529 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,080 Speaker 1: to hear me talk about my person anymore. You know, 1530 01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm too I'm too much. It's too much, it's overwhelming. 1531 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:41,160 Speaker 1: They don't want they're tired of me always bringing him 1532 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 1: up or her up. Living with that, acknowledging it, writing 1533 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,880 Speaker 1: about it, journalizing about it, and making sure that they're 1534 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:52,599 Speaker 1: not forgotten, because that means that you're not forgetting your 1535 01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 1: connection to them. And then I'll make it about living 1536 01:11:56,360 --> 01:11:58,320 Speaker 1: grief as well. Let's say you had a relation to 1537 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:01,360 Speaker 1: somebody a thirty year friendship and or as a sibling, 1538 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:03,680 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you have a falling out 1539 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 1: with that person and now there's no contact. That's a 1540 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 1: painful moment for you. So I ask people to mine 1541 01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:12,840 Speaker 1: for the positivity in that because half of that relationship 1542 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:15,320 Speaker 1: is positive. It doesn't mean that you'll ever Like I 1543 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 1: have people that are out of my life, they will 1544 01:12:18,479 --> 01:12:21,639 Speaker 1: not have access to me again. They've that's not happening. 1545 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 1: But when I reflect back on my time with them, 1546 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:28,120 Speaker 1: it's not negative. Like I know that negative things might 1547 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:30,600 Speaker 1: have brought us to where we're not connected now, but 1548 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:32,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to take away my past. Yeah, I 1549 01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 1: had a great time with you. I had a great 1550 01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,160 Speaker 1: time for the time that we were spending spending together. 1551 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:40,200 Speaker 1: So I'm not going to be spending negative energy mourning 1552 01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 1: the negative side of it. I get the negative side. 1553 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:45,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna reminisce about the positive stuff. 1554 01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. I have a friend who sadly lost, who tragically 1555 01:12:49,920 --> 01:12:51,880 Speaker 2: lost their child, are like two weeks old, and they 1556 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 2: named it and you know, and that's been a really 1557 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,599 Speaker 2: big part of their grieving is being able to say 1558 01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 2: the name, you know, not forget not. 1559 01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:03,439 Speaker 1: If anybody's listening to this, yeah, or for who is 1560 01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:05,439 Speaker 1: listening to this. If you have somebody that you know 1561 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 1: that's lost a child, please say their name. You're not 1562 01:13:09,400 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 1: going to offend the parent. They want to. They want 1563 01:13:12,400 --> 01:13:15,080 Speaker 1: that child to matter. It doesn't matter if that child 1564 01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 1: was two days old, we're twenty two years old, we're 1565 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 1: forty years old. They want their child to be remembered. 1566 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 1: So you're not going to make them sad by saying 1567 01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:28,240 Speaker 1: their name. You're gonna make them feel connected and that 1568 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 1: you're honoring that person. 1569 01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 2: Well said, how can someone find peace if they were 1570 01:13:33,520 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 2: not with their loved one in their final moments. 1571 01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:39,960 Speaker 1: So COVID taught us that right. COVID happens, and people 1572 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,400 Speaker 1: can't be with their loved ones and friends when they're passing. 1573 01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 1: So what I want everybody to know is that nobody 1574 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:49,799 Speaker 1: dies alone. When we leave the physical world, nobody passes alone. 1575 01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 1: And you might say that's not true because nobody was there. 1576 01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:55,639 Speaker 1: I mean that people come for us. We have loved 1577 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:58,320 Speaker 1: ones and friends that are waiting for us that are there. 1578 01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:02,599 Speaker 1: And if you're at someone deathbed, they may do things 1579 01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 1: where they're having deathbed visions, they may call out to 1580 01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:09,920 Speaker 1: a person. You may sense that yourselves. There's always people 1581 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:11,400 Speaker 1: that come for us. So if you were not able 1582 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:13,519 Speaker 1: to be with the person when they transition, please know 1583 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:17,080 Speaker 1: that they were not alone. There's always people, sometimes pats 1584 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 1: that come for us. So nobody passes alone. And you 1585 01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:24,320 Speaker 1: could set up a schedule to make sure that Grandma 1586 01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:26,680 Speaker 1: is not alone and that everybody's going to be with us. 1587 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:30,360 Speaker 1: She'll never be alone. That one moment where Grandma was 1588 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:33,599 Speaker 1: alone may be where Grandma transitions. And the reason why 1589 01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:35,680 Speaker 1: is people choose who they want to be with when 1590 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:38,960 Speaker 1: they pass, and if it's too painful to leave while 1591 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,840 Speaker 1: that person's there, they'll wait till that person's not. So 1592 01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 1: if you were not able to be there. Please don't 1593 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:45,760 Speaker 1: take offense to that. Don't think that you fail them. 1594 01:14:45,800 --> 01:14:47,360 Speaker 1: They may not have been able to pass with you in. 1595 01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:48,920 Speaker 2: The room because they loved you too much. 1596 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 1: Because they loved you too much. We can't we can't 1597 01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:53,559 Speaker 1: hold them back. Our grief can't hold them back once 1598 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 1: they left the physical world. I think we can hold 1599 01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:57,680 Speaker 1: them back while they're here, though, because if we have 1600 01:14:57,720 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 1: that energy, please don't go, Please don't go, Please don't go, 1601 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:01,200 Speaker 1: They may not go. 1602 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 2: That's I mean, yeah, that's so reassuring for so many 1603 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 2: people who are trying to time that moment perfectly. 1604 01:15:07,320 --> 01:15:11,479 Speaker 1: And that's why if you say to somebody it's okay, 1605 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 1: they may transition right after that, because you've given them permission, 1606 01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:16,960 Speaker 1: You've released them as best as you can. 1607 01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, that's the push and pull, isn't it. When 1608 01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:21,800 Speaker 2: you love someone, you don't want them to leave, and 1609 01:15:21,840 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 2: at the same time, you don't want them to be 1610 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:27,640 Speaker 2: in pain, correct, And so until you're willing to let 1611 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 2: go and recognize that that's better for them, there is 1612 01:15:32,280 --> 01:15:35,719 Speaker 2: some energetic force that makes them hold on and stay 1613 01:15:35,760 --> 01:15:36,360 Speaker 2: on as well. 1614 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:38,280 Speaker 1: So I have a phrase that I use with my kids, 1615 01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:39,960 Speaker 1: But I think it's applicable when it comes to grief 1616 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 1: as well. I have an aunt that said, you know, 1617 01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:44,040 Speaker 1: she's like, I know you're really close with your kids. 1618 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:45,599 Speaker 1: She's like, but you get the end of growing up, 1619 01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:47,760 Speaker 1: You're going to have to let them go. And I said, 1620 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 1: I'll never let them go. I said, I'll never let 1621 01:15:50,479 --> 01:15:53,880 Speaker 1: them go, but I will let them grow. And I 1622 01:15:53,960 --> 01:15:56,720 Speaker 1: feel that when it comes to grief, we may have 1623 01:15:56,760 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 1: to let them go physically, but let us grow together 1624 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,519 Speaker 1: until we are able to connect again. 1625 01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 2: That's beautiful. And I feel like when people leave there 1626 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 2: with the way I felt that with my my wife's 1627 01:16:08,439 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 2: grandmother passing, it was so peaceful, and she left so 1628 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:15,840 Speaker 2: much peace because she was this radiant, vibrant, you know, 1629 01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 2: deeply conscious powerhouse of a woman. She left like this, 1630 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 2: you know, really peaceful, sweet, celebratory energy, which was hard 1631 01:16:26,400 --> 01:16:27,400 Speaker 2: because it wasn't you know. 1632 01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:29,639 Speaker 1: And a legacy of love for the family to kind 1633 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:33,840 Speaker 1: of stay connected, right as a result, she gave the language, 1634 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 1: she gave the energy, she set to structure. And my grandmother, 1635 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:39,600 Speaker 1: I'm feeling from you like my own grandmother. You know 1636 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:42,200 Speaker 1: the level of any of my cousins watching this right 1637 01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:46,320 Speaker 1: now or listening right now, they're they're immediately thinking about 1638 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,599 Speaker 1: my grandmother in the same way because she inspired family, 1639 01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:53,639 Speaker 1: She inspired connection and love. Yeah, yeah, which comes through 1640 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:54,679 Speaker 1: guilt but still worked. 1641 01:16:56,080 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly. How can people connect with people they've 1642 01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:05,080 Speaker 2: lost in their life on a daily basis? You mentioned 1643 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:07,679 Speaker 2: earlier that you do that. I was talking about how 1644 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:11,000 Speaker 2: I do that. How do you suggest people do that 1645 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 2: and keep that person alive in their life? And is 1646 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:13,759 Speaker 2: that healthy? 1647 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 1: I think it's healthy. I think it's important. I think 1648 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,400 Speaker 1: telling stories to people that never knew them. Like I 1649 01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 1: never knew my grandfather. I never met him. My grandfather 1650 01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:26,919 Speaker 1: died before I was born. My mom did an amazing 1651 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:31,120 Speaker 1: job at making him a three dimensional figure for me, 1652 01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: from explaining what he looked like, how he was emotionally 1653 01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:37,840 Speaker 1: positive and negative by the way, like she just made 1654 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: him a real person that I kind of felt like 1655 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 1: I knew him. So it would be like if you 1656 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:44,760 Speaker 1: go see a movie and I'm not going to get 1657 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:46,559 Speaker 1: a chance to see the movie, and you now tell 1658 01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:49,559 Speaker 1: me all about the movie. Yeah, you gave me the plot, 1659 01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:52,760 Speaker 1: you gave me the characters, the cinematic of it, all 1660 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:54,840 Speaker 1: of it. I feel like I've seen the movie now 1661 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,960 Speaker 1: because you did such a good job describing it. Well, 1662 01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm happy she did that because she gave me language, 1663 01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:02,120 Speaker 1: and that language is what I had to use with 1664 01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 1: my kids for her. And I will have conversations with 1665 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,960 Speaker 1: my kids legitimately where I'll be like, make sure you 1666 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:11,599 Speaker 1: tell my grandkids this, and my daughter will be like, 1667 01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:15,719 Speaker 1: you tell your grandkids meaning like you ain't going anywhere, 1668 01:18:15,880 --> 01:18:18,000 Speaker 1: But the reality is what if I'm not here? That 1669 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 1: is a reality. I may not be here when they 1670 01:18:20,040 --> 01:18:23,439 Speaker 1: have kids. So I'm having that conversation with them. Make 1671 01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 1: sure you tell my grandkids this, make sure that they 1672 01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:28,879 Speaker 1: know about this. So I think having the conversation is important, 1673 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:32,800 Speaker 1: communicating with people that you know will never know them 1674 01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,440 Speaker 1: or meet them, so that you're keeping this three dimensional 1675 01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:40,479 Speaker 1: archetype of a personality present because really what it's do 1676 01:18:40,640 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 1: is keeping a bridge between you and them and doing that. 1677 01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:48,800 Speaker 1: On my Instagram, I think it was April. I was 1678 01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,120 Speaker 1: feeling my mom. I was just thinking about her, and 1679 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, she's been gone thirty years and I was like, 1680 01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 1: I'm going to post a photo and I posted it. 1681 01:18:56,439 --> 01:19:00,479 Speaker 1: It had nothing to do with birthdays anniversaries. A moment 1682 01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:02,720 Speaker 1: I was feeling my mom. I posted a photo of 1683 01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:06,040 Speaker 1: my mom. It was me honoring her. So you know, 1684 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:08,479 Speaker 1: I have this like image in my mom image in 1685 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:11,080 Speaker 1: my head of my mom being in the afterlife going Look. 1686 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 1: My son posted a photo of me on earth Agram. Look, 1687 01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:16,599 Speaker 1: let's go look, you know, but it's where I'm honoring. 1688 01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:20,600 Speaker 1: I'm keeping that person. Food. Food is another way that 1689 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,719 Speaker 1: you can honor someone. So with my grandmother, we talked 1690 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 1: about you know your wife's grandmother. And with my grandmother, 1691 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:31,120 Speaker 1: I lived with her. She had arthritis, so she used 1692 01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:32,920 Speaker 1: to cook every Sunday for a lot of people. So 1693 01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:36,800 Speaker 1: she'd be like, come help me. So I cooked with her. 1694 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 1: I didn't know at the time how important that was. 1695 01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:45,600 Speaker 1: Like that I had like my grandma's recipes that I 1696 01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:49,200 Speaker 1: could if I wanted to make at Christmas time STRUEFULO. 1697 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,360 Speaker 1: I can make struthful of for the family. Not that 1698 01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:53,559 Speaker 1: I do, but but I could if I wanted to write. 1699 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 1: So there's a tradition that gets passed down. So what 1700 01:19:56,840 --> 01:20:00,160 Speaker 1: are the legacies. What are the traditions? Food, like music, 1701 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,960 Speaker 1: all of those things are ways to keep them present 1702 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,960 Speaker 1: and allow them to still be part of our lives. 1703 01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:09,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, those are beautiful. I love those really helpful for 1704 01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 2: people who are going through it right now, what's your 1705 01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:16,480 Speaker 2: take on keeping things that they owned and physical items? 1706 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 1: Again, I think that depends upon the person. My thing 1707 01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 1: is they don't care. Nobody ever comes through going you 1708 01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:24,519 Speaker 1: gave away my car, you know, you threw out my 1709 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:27,320 Speaker 1: clothes like, they don't care. The value for them is 1710 01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:31,760 Speaker 1: love and connection, not articles, not things. They don't come 1711 01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:33,880 Speaker 1: through when people are fighting over the house. They don't 1712 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:36,599 Speaker 1: talk about stuff like that. They don't take sides because 1713 01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:41,120 Speaker 1: in the physical world material things matter, that doesn't matter. 1714 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,559 Speaker 1: They're the true true value of the world, energy, universe 1715 01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:50,559 Speaker 1: is love and connection, communication. That's what they value. That's 1716 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:53,600 Speaker 1: what they come through you know, mostly about. But I 1717 01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 1: think for some people they're in positions where they can't 1718 01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:59,720 Speaker 1: keep a house. Right. So if someone can't keep a 1719 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:02,439 Speaker 1: house and they know that they're let's say their spouse 1720 01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:05,679 Speaker 1: love the house, They lived and breathed for the house, 1721 01:21:05,720 --> 01:21:07,800 Speaker 1: for the garden, They put their entire life into that, 1722 01:21:08,200 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 1: and now they have to sell the house because they 1723 01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:12,960 Speaker 1: can't afford it. That's devastating on top of the loss. 1724 01:21:13,640 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 1: So I've had so many readings where people come through 1725 01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:18,559 Speaker 1: saying it's Okay, you can sell the house. You're not 1726 01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,720 Speaker 1: losing me. But that's great to be released of that. 1727 01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 1: But that person still is losing their house. So now 1728 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:26,120 Speaker 1: they're going to grieve the loss of the relationship and 1729 01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:28,200 Speaker 1: they're going to grieve the loss of the house. So 1730 01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:31,080 Speaker 1: what's the solution. And an example like that, I say, 1731 01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:34,280 Speaker 1: hire a real estate attorney, a real estate photographer to 1732 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,880 Speaker 1: come in and film your house in that three dimensional 1733 01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 1: thing so you can always have a walkthrough of the 1734 01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: house that you remember because you don't have to be 1735 01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:44,600 Speaker 1: in the house in order to feel the house. You 1736 01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:47,720 Speaker 1: could legitimately walk through that house anytime you want. So 1737 01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:51,759 Speaker 1: you find ways to navigate and kind of experience your grief, 1738 01:21:51,840 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 1: but to work with it and through it. 1739 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:56,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. So a question that I have, John is I 1740 01:21:56,720 --> 01:22:00,240 Speaker 2: feel like for a lot of people, they can become 1741 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,479 Speaker 2: a sort of dependency on a lot of this work, 1742 01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:06,200 Speaker 2: and it can start to become somewhat of a crutch. Obviously, 1743 01:22:06,200 --> 01:22:07,920 Speaker 2: we all need time to process, we need time, but 1744 01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:09,680 Speaker 2: it can become something that you just fall back on 1745 01:22:09,760 --> 01:22:13,240 Speaker 2: all the time. How do you help someone move on 1746 01:22:13,479 --> 01:22:16,679 Speaker 2: or move through that, because it can kind of feel 1747 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:22,760 Speaker 2: self fulfilling to just sit in this space, try and 1748 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:26,240 Speaker 2: get affirmation and validation, but not really do the work 1749 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:27,759 Speaker 2: and apply and move forward. 1750 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:31,200 Speaker 1: So I think it's a really powerful question, and I 1751 01:22:31,240 --> 01:22:34,000 Speaker 1: think it's really important that people don't look at this 1752 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:37,439 Speaker 1: work as a crutch. It should be something that is 1753 01:22:37,479 --> 01:22:41,760 Speaker 1: an asset to their way of life, in the way 1754 01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 1: of their thinking. So we should never externalize our feelings, 1755 01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,760 Speaker 1: whether it be love or grief. We should be internalizing 1756 01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:51,840 Speaker 1: those moments. And I think I was very kind of like, 1757 01:22:51,960 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, lucky because I was popular, like from the 1758 01:22:57,360 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 1: beginning of my career, so it was hard to get 1759 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:02,800 Speaker 1: back in to see me, so I could keep a 1760 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 1: buffer between people. But before that kind of like happened, 1761 01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,200 Speaker 1: I would say to people when they would say, you know, 1762 01:23:08,200 --> 01:23:09,920 Speaker 1: why can I come back and see you again, I'd 1763 01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:13,920 Speaker 1: be like a year, nine months, like take some time, 1764 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:17,120 Speaker 1: and they'd be like that's a long time. I'm like, well, yeah. 1765 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 1: But when I used to work at a psychic fair 1766 01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 1: when I first started, the same people would show up 1767 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:24,920 Speaker 1: like every like two or three weeks and they had 1768 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 1: the same questions, And I remember saying to this one moment, 1769 01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:29,639 Speaker 1: I'm like, can we let some like life happen? Here. 1770 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 1: I was like, cause I feel like I should be 1771 01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:33,679 Speaker 1: coming over for dinner now, like I feel like we're friends, 1772 01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:36,400 Speaker 1: and I don't really feel this as professional. And then 1773 01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:40,920 Speaker 1: I had another client that I jokingly fired her and 1774 01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,160 Speaker 1: I just was like, I cannot read you anymore. And 1775 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:45,639 Speaker 1: she was like, why I go because he is never 1776 01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:48,680 Speaker 1: leaving his wife for you. I was like, I'm not 1777 01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:50,320 Speaker 1: the right person for you. I'm not going to tell 1778 01:23:50,320 --> 01:23:53,000 Speaker 1: you what you want to hear. So I think it's 1779 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:55,519 Speaker 1: important to set boundaries. So I set boundaries with clients 1780 01:23:55,560 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 1: all the time, like I'll just be like, you know, 1781 01:23:57,040 --> 01:24:00,200 Speaker 1: you can't come back and see me. If I'm doing 1782 01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:03,599 Speaker 1: a zoom group and I recognize somebody, I will literally 1783 01:24:03,640 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 1: say to them I can't read you. You know, I've 1784 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 1: just seen you. I remember you like I don't want 1785 01:24:08,200 --> 01:24:08,640 Speaker 1: to remember you. 1786 01:24:08,960 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 2: So, yeah, your new book kind of took you to 1787 01:24:12,360 --> 01:24:16,479 Speaker 2: different lengths, almost outside of your outside of your comfort zone. Yes, 1788 01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:21,080 Speaker 2: it's a really uncomfortable spaces beyond what you'd usually do. Yes, 1789 01:24:21,439 --> 01:24:25,000 Speaker 2: talk to me about how Chasing Evil even came about. 1790 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:30,800 Speaker 1: So Chasing Evil is the thirty year culmination of me 1791 01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:36,519 Speaker 1: assisting an FBI agent now retired on his casework, and he, 1792 01:24:37,040 --> 01:24:40,840 Speaker 1: like multiple other people, did not believe in the subject matter, 1793 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:44,559 Speaker 1: except he took it to another level. He heard me 1794 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 1: on radio. I do a lot of radio live collumns. 1795 01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 1: He heard me multiple times, and he thought I was 1796 01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:53,400 Speaker 1: a fraud, a grifter, and a con as he puts it. 1797 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:56,400 Speaker 1: And he came to me under the guise of a 1798 01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 1: real cold case that he was working, and he wanted 1799 01:24:59,400 --> 01:25:02,840 Speaker 1: my assistance. He brought nine items, five of which were 1800 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:05,240 Speaker 1: pretending to the case, four of which were control items 1801 01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:08,080 Speaker 1: that had nothing to do with the case, and in 1802 01:25:08,120 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 1: the beginning of my meeting with him, I separated the 1803 01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:15,040 Speaker 1: four things that did not belong to the case. Got 1804 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 1: his attention. He had arranged for the woman that was 1805 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:22,000 Speaker 1: missing her daughter to be on standby because he heard 1806 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 1: me make connections with people on the radio, so he thought, 1807 01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 1: you know, put me on the phone with the woman. 1808 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:29,200 Speaker 1: The woman comes through, I solve the case. That didn't happen, 1809 01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:31,439 Speaker 1: but I wound up reading for him and gave him 1810 01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:35,000 Speaker 1: information that was applicable to his life, and then information 1811 01:25:35,120 --> 01:25:37,160 Speaker 1: that when he went home he had to get validated 1812 01:25:37,160 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 1: from his parents things that he did not know, so 1813 01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:41,479 Speaker 1: his world got a little bit rocked, right, He got 1814 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 1: the reality of what a reading looks like, the validation, 1815 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:46,640 Speaker 1: and said, can you use your ability to help me? 1816 01:25:47,520 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 1: And there was a sense of duty that I kind 1817 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 1: of had. Now. The ironic part is my dad was 1818 01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,880 Speaker 1: a New York City police officer and told me, don't 1819 01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:58,760 Speaker 1: sully my name with this BS that you're doing, and 1820 01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:01,240 Speaker 1: never let me find out that you're like working with 1821 01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,479 Speaker 1: the police, Like, just don't do that. And I didn't. 1822 01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,200 Speaker 1: And by the way, I really didn't have an interest 1823 01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:09,840 Speaker 1: in it, and with great respect with this book in 1824 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,000 Speaker 1: this process, I still don't have an interest in it. 1825 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:13,840 Speaker 1: It's not where my passion lies. My passion is not 1826 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,439 Speaker 1: into crime solving. My passion is to help everyday people. 1827 01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:18,680 Speaker 1: In the same way that when I did, you know, 1828 01:26:18,800 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 1: crossing over in TV shows, I hated when they brought 1829 01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:25,080 Speaker 1: celebrities on because I didn't want to read celebrities. That's 1830 01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 1: not my thing. Chasing Evil was different. I got pulled 1831 01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 1: in with Bob and it took me on a journey 1832 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 1: that I wasn't expecting. It forced me to review that 1833 01:26:37,400 --> 01:26:40,840 Speaker 1: although I had thought I did the work where my 1834 01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:45,200 Speaker 1: dad was concerned, apparently I didn't. And I might have 1835 01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:49,960 Speaker 1: been seeking some patriarchal approval by helping him, and we 1836 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:53,400 Speaker 1: had some great success working together, and there's multiple cases, 1837 01:26:54,040 --> 01:27:00,320 Speaker 1: there's a lot of sadness, and I felt again the 1838 01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:03,479 Speaker 1: word was duty to try to help this man on 1839 01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 1: his path. I say openly, I didn't solve anything. I 1840 01:27:07,640 --> 01:27:09,600 Speaker 1: did for him what I do for my clients. I 1841 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:13,320 Speaker 1: gave him information. He used that information and he solves 1842 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:13,839 Speaker 1: his cases. 1843 01:27:14,280 --> 01:27:16,360 Speaker 2: And what book would you recommend to my audience who 1844 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:20,840 Speaker 2: wants to learn about your work from a foundational level 1845 01:27:20,880 --> 01:27:22,200 Speaker 2: then to really dive into it. 1846 01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:25,080 Speaker 1: I have a book called The Infinite Quest and that 1847 01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:28,040 Speaker 1: book is on a platform that I created called Evolved 1848 01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,960 Speaker 1: plus TV. That's probably where I would send people because 1849 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:35,040 Speaker 1: evolve plus TV is a one stop destination where you're 1850 01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:36,759 Speaker 1: going to hit all the things that we talked about. 1851 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:39,040 Speaker 1: You know, we have somebody that does past life aggression 1852 01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 1: therapy on there. We have numerologists on there, we have 1853 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,599 Speaker 1: astrologers on there, and they're all people that I work with, 1854 01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,000 Speaker 1: like I've worked with them send clients too, So I 1855 01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:49,160 Speaker 1: kind of brought them together in like one spot, and 1856 01:27:49,240 --> 01:27:51,280 Speaker 1: on evolve plus, people have the opportunity to set up 1857 01:27:51,280 --> 01:27:53,800 Speaker 1: a profile.
