  Raymond Aaron: stealth wisdom so stay with me whether you believe in tarot cards or not what the heck
• 2:40
  Raymond Aaron: give me 20 minutes and let's see what you think afterwards and she's got a gift for us at the end
• 2:47
  Raymond Aaron: So, Corby, when you were a little girl and some giant called an adult came up to you and said,
• 2:55
  Raymond Aaron: "What would you like to be when you grow up?" Did you say tarot card reader? Or did you say,
• 3:02
  Raymond Aaron: "I want to be the president of the United States," or "I want to be an astronaut"?
• 3:05
  Raymond Aaron: What were you thinking back then?
• 3:07
  Corbie Mitleid: An actress, absolutely. I was the theater kid in high school, went to Brown University
• 3:14
  Corbie Mitleid: as a theater major, acted in New York.
• 3:16
  Corbie Mitleid: The psychic work was always on the side, until 9/11.
• 3:21
  Corbie Mitleid: -Oh, tell us.
• 3:23
  Corbie Mitleid: -All right. A quick 30-second how I got into doing it.
• 3:27
  Corbie Mitleid: When I was 9, I read a book called "The Witch Family"
• 3:29
  Corbie Mitleid: by Eleanor Estes, and instead of thinking,
• 3:31
  Corbie Mitleid: "Ooh, that's scary," or "Ha, ha, ha,"
• 3:33
  Corbie Mitleid: I thought, "Angel pointings."
• 3:35
  Corbie Mitleid: I knew there was magic in the world,
• 3:37
  Corbie Mitleid: and I wanted to go find it.
• 3:38
  Corbie Mitleid: Fast forward to 1973, when I was a senior in high school,
• 3:42
  Corbie Mitleid: working part-time at Spencer Gifts.
• 3:45
  Corbie Mitleid: That was the year Living That Guy came out and Spencer had
• 3:48
  Corbie Mitleid: the James Bond 007 Tower deck and I bought it because we were all hippies though.
• 3:53
  Corbie Mitleid: I read for friends for 20 years,
• 3:56
  Corbie Mitleid: keeping my ego out of the way,
• 3:58
  Corbie Mitleid: being a clear channel, all of a sudden in the early '90s,
• 4:01
  Corbie Mitleid: I could do hands-on healing and talk to dead people,
• 4:03
  Corbie Mitleid: which is when the universe handed me my draft notice and said,
• 4:06
  Corbie Mitleid: "Hello, you're working for us."
• 4:08
  Corbie Mitleid: but always part-time until 9/11 as I watched the towers burn.
• 4:13
  Corbie Mitleid: I turned to my husband and I said,
• 4:15
  Corbie Mitleid: "I'm going to need to do that work full-time.
• 4:17
  Corbie Mitleid: People need to know there are other answers out there."
• 4:20
  Corbie Mitleid: He said, "I believe in you, go do it."
• 4:22
  Corbie Mitleid: Since then, six days a week, 14 hours a day,
• 4:25
  Corbie Mitleid: I read about a thousand people a year,
• 4:27
  Corbie Mitleid: and I get to get up in the morning.
• 4:30
  Corbie Mitleid: I don't have to get up in the morning.
• 4:32
  Corbie Mitleid: That's the difference.
• 4:33
  Raymond Aaron: Wow.
• 4:34
  Raymond Aaron: - Wow, you have that many clients that you're busy
• 4:37
  Raymond Aaron: for so long a period, every single day, wow.
• 4:41
  Corbie Mitleid: - Yes, because the readings, some of them are five minutes.
• 4:45
  Corbie Mitleid: I have one particular one that takes me 12 hours
• 4:47
  Corbie Mitleid: to put together.
• 4:48
  Corbie Mitleid: And I do free reading hours on social media
• 4:53
  Corbie Mitleid: where I can read 40 people in an hour.
• 4:55
  Corbie Mitleid: I do a spiritual expo.
• 4:57
  Corbie Mitleid: So that's where the thousand people a year comes in.
• 5:01
  Raymond Aaron: Now, I have had experience in speaking to each of my parents after they passed.
• 5:08
  Raymond Aaron: And it was, first of all, I didn't believe it. My sister turned me on to it and I said,
• 5:14
  Raymond Aaron: it's baloney. If they're dead, they're dead. That's it. That's period. End of the sentence.
• 5:19
  Raymond Aaron: And then it was so startling to me. But also, I didn't believe it. I didn't believe it. And yet,
• 5:26
  Raymond Aaron: But it was absolutely true because each parent said something to me that only that person
• 5:35
  Raymond Aaron: and me know about.
• 5:37
  Raymond Aaron: No one else could have known it.
• 5:39
  Raymond Aaron: And so it's true, but I don't know why it's true.
• 5:44
  Raymond Aaron: And if you can hear the soul of dead people, then how come I can't?
• 5:50
  Corbie Mitleid: We each have 10 fingers.
• 5:52
  Corbie Mitleid: Why can't I play piano like Elton John?
• 5:54
  Corbie Mitleid: Some people have talent, some people are content to play chopsticks, some people say, "I really
• 6:01
  Corbie Mitleid: love this," and they practice and they learn to read, and one in a hundred million is Elton
• 6:06
  Corbie Mitleid: John.
• 6:06
  Corbie Mitleid: I am not saying I'm Elton John level with gay people.
• 6:10
  Corbie Mitleid: But when I do this work, I'm in service.
• 6:13
  Corbie Mitleid: I take my work seriously, but me not so much, okay?
• 6:16
  Corbie Mitleid: And I'm very fussy.
• 6:19
  Corbie Mitleid: I will not say, "I see a woman in a flower dress handing you a rose.
• 6:22
  Corbie Mitleid: It's your grandmother.
• 6:23
  Corbie Mitleid: Oh, please, can I vomit now?"
• 6:24
  Corbie Mitleid: It's terrible.
• 6:25
  Corbie Mitleid: It's vague.
• 6:27
  Corbie Mitleid: So, I do what I call get the dog tags.
• 6:30
  Corbie Mitleid: For instance, my father, Jerome Richard Dorkin, who died in 2001 at the age of 80.
• 6:35
  Corbie Mitleid: Notice that tells me nothing, but it gets me into the energy right away.
• 6:38
  Corbie Mitleid: And then my guides, for some reason, play charades.
• 6:41
  Corbie Mitleid: They smoked, they had surgery, there was an accident.
• 6:43
  Corbie Mitleid: Now, I never know.
• 6:45
  Corbie Mitleid: When we get things that I couldn't know, then I open the door and my client gets to speak
• 6:51
  Corbie Mitleid: directly to them.
• 6:52
  Corbie Mitleid: And I remind people, we are not dial-a-dad.
• 6:55
  Corbie Mitleid: If Uncle David's on a field trip, he will not be by the phone.
• 6:58
  Corbie Mitleid: Now, there's a reason I won't do this in public,
• 7:00
  Corbie Mitleid: and that's because I don't censor.
• 7:02
  Corbie Mitleid: And I will tell the PG story.
• 7:04
  Corbie Mitleid: 20 years ago in upstate New York,
• 7:07
  Corbie Mitleid: I was reading for a woman.
• 7:09
  Corbie Mitleid: She was part of a biracial, same-gender couple.
• 7:12
  Corbie Mitleid: The black partner had died, and her white widow
• 7:15
  Corbie Mitleid: wanted to speak to her.
• 7:16
  Corbie Mitleid: Now, your audience can't see me, but this
• 7:18
  Corbie Mitleid: is this cute little suburban face from Cherry Hill, New
• 7:20
  Corbie Mitleid: Jersey, I'm a manners.
• 7:22
  Corbie Mitleid: But what came out of my mouth in flawless urban ebonics
• 7:25
  Corbie Mitleid: is a couple of sentences that would never
• 7:27
  Corbie Mitleid: come out of this mouth, and I will not put it
• 7:29
  Corbie Mitleid: on the podcast with you.
• 7:30
  Corbie Mitleid: And I was aghast.
• 7:32
  Corbie Mitleid: But the woman in front of me broke out laughing and nodding
• 7:36
  Corbie Mitleid: because those particular sentences
• 7:38
  Corbie Mitleid: were what her partner, Isabel, walked into the house
• 7:40
  Corbie Mitleid: with after every business trip.
• 7:42
  Corbie Mitleid: Wow.
• 7:43
  Corbie Mitleid: That's not "It's a Rose She Loves You."
• 7:46
  Corbie Mitleid: I have no idea how I do it, Rhea.
• 7:47
  Corbie Mitleid: I don't.
• 7:53
  Corbie Mitleid: - All I know is that I get my ego out of the way
• 7:55
  Corbie Mitleid: and I'm the tool that spirit uses.
• 7:59
  Raymond Aaron: - Okay, so is it a gift or is it learning
• 8:03
  Raymond Aaron: because you've got all kinds of certifications?
• 8:06
  Corbie Mitleid: - It's both, it's both.
• 8:08
  Corbie Mitleid: Even Ellen went to the London Conservatory
• 8:11
  Corbie Mitleid: to learn to play.
• 8:13
  Corbie Mitleid: And we all have different talents.
• 8:15
  Corbie Mitleid: When you say to the universe, okay, I take my draft card.
• 8:21
  Corbie Mitleid: The universe looks inside to see what you're good at.
• 8:23
  Corbie Mitleid: Theater training.
• 8:24
  Corbie Mitleid: I understand character arcs, stories.
• 8:28
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm a writer, words are my drug of choice
• 8:30
  Corbie Mitleid: so I can tell the stories.
• 8:32
  Corbie Mitleid: And I have loved history since I was a wee thing.
• 8:36
  Corbie Mitleid: So I'm really good with past lives.
• 8:39
  Corbie Mitleid: On the other hand, I have a slight benign tremor
• 8:41
  Corbie Mitleid: in my right hand, don't ask me to read a pendulum.
• 8:44
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm not sure I'm getting it real.
• 8:46
  Corbie Mitleid: And don't ask me to do spirit art
• 8:48
  Corbie Mitleid: because I cannot draw a stick finger
• 8:50
  Corbie Mitleid: with a sharp pencil and a lot of prayer,
• 8:52
  Corbie Mitleid: not in my wheelhouse.
• 8:54
  Corbie Mitleid: So if it's something you dearly love
• 8:57
  Corbie Mitleid: and you wanna work at it,
• 8:58
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm sure the spirit can get it going.
• 8:59
  Corbie Mitleid: We're all wired like the same house plant.
• 9:02
  Corbie Mitleid: We are.
• 9:03
  Corbie Mitleid: Nobody is wired differently.
• 9:05
  Corbie Mitleid: It's just that they've learned to run the engine.
• 9:07
  Corbie Mitleid: That's all.
• 9:08
  Raymond Aaron: - Okay.
• 9:09
  Raymond Aaron: So disguise the name of the person, of course,
• 9:14
  Raymond Aaron: but tell us your best story, your best client story.
• 9:18
  Corbie Mitleid: - Okay, this one is about past lives.
• 9:21
  Corbie Mitleid: And a woman came to me and said,
• 9:24
  Corbie Mitleid: "I don't know what to do about my son.
• 9:26
  Corbie Mitleid: He's 29.
• 9:28
  Corbie Mitleid: He won't live more than a mile from me.
• 9:30
  Corbie Mitleid: He won't make any important decisions
• 9:31
  Corbie Mitleid: without checking with me first.
• 9:33
  Corbie Mitleid: This is not normal.
• 9:35
  Corbie Mitleid: Can you help?"
• 9:36
  Corbie Mitleid: And so then I opened up, went upstairs,
• 9:39
  Corbie Mitleid: and in about 20 seconds I said, OK, I'm
• 9:42
  Corbie Mitleid: seeing 1944, Utah Beach.
• 9:44
  Corbie Mitleid: Said, this is D-Day.
• 9:46
  Corbie Mitleid: Your son is a soldier.
• 9:47
  Corbie Mitleid: He's down.
• 9:48
  Corbie Mitleid: He's got shrapnel in his leg.
• 9:49
  Corbie Mitleid: He's bleeding out.
• 9:50
  Corbie Mitleid: You're his commanding officer.
• 9:51
  Corbie Mitleid: You scream all over the dunes.
• 9:53
  Corbie Mitleid: You grab him.
• 9:53
  Corbie Mitleid: You pull him to safety.
• 9:55
  Corbie Mitleid: You both get shrapnel, but you both live.
• 9:57
  Corbie Mitleid: And I open my eyes, and she's very pale.
• 9:59
  Corbie Mitleid: She says quietly, can you see my rank?
• 10:02
  Corbie Mitleid: I said, yeah, you were a sergeant.
• 10:03
  Corbie Mitleid: She goes, he's called me serge since he
• 10:05
  Corbie Mitleid: three years old and we've never known why. Wow. Second story. Woman was always interested in the
• 10:12
  Corbie Mitleid: Civil War, had no idea why. She lived nowhere near one of the sites. Her parents weren't
• 10:17
  Corbie Mitleid: interested. So again, close my eyes, I see it. Okay. I'm seeing a small white washboard with a
• 10:23
  Corbie Mitleid: lower ceiling. There's a little old whizzing black woman in the bed. She's dying. They're
• 10:29
  Corbie Mitleid: two very tall gentlemen. They are so tall their heads have to bend over. One's a military uniform,
• 10:34
  Corbie Mitleid: one is civilian. You are kneeling by the bed. The dress looks to be about 1861 or '62, which would
• 10:41
  Corbie Mitleid: be right because, you know, you weren't in fashion at that point. Dark gray, black suitage around the
• 10:48
  Corbie Mitleid: sleeves, peplum and hem. And all of you were grieving because this woman was so close to
• 10:53
  Corbie Mitleid: getting to the end of the Underground Railroad that you had all worked on, but she was dying,
• 10:57
  Corbie Mitleid: she couldn't make it. I'm opening my eyes and this woman is crying in front of me. She says,
• 11:02
  Corbie Mitleid: I've had that dream for 20 years.
• 11:04
  Corbie Mitleid: Exactly.
• 11:05
  Corbie Mitleid: I've never learned what it meant.
• 11:06
  Corbie Mitleid: Oh, my gosh.
• 11:08
  Corbie Mitleid: That's when a past life is important.
• 11:10
  Corbie Mitleid: Do not come to me and say,
• 11:11
  Corbie Mitleid: I must have been Anne Boleyn
• 11:12
  Corbie Mitleid: because I can't wear turtlenecks
• 11:14
  Corbie Mitleid: because I'll send you out the door.
• 11:16
  Raymond Aaron: Very. You're funny.
• 11:18
  Corbie Mitleid: I've done stand up comedy about you
• 11:20
  Corbie Mitleid: thinking psychic's life is easy.
• 11:21
  Raymond Aaron: So yes, I will.
• 11:22
  Raymond Aaron: Well, let me tell you my story
• 11:24
  Raymond Aaron: and you can comment.
• 11:26
  Raymond Aaron: Sure.
• 11:27
  Raymond Aaron: My father died
• 11:28
  Raymond Aaron: and he was a taxi driver all his life.
• 11:31
  Raymond Aaron: And the license number on the side of his door was 1207.
• 11:37
  Raymond Aaron: So all my life, when I was downtown, if a taxi went by of my dad's color,
• 11:43
  Raymond Aaron: then I would look at the door to see if it was my dad.
• 11:46
  Raymond Aaron: 1207. I got so addicted to it that even if it was
• 11:50
  Raymond Aaron: an other cab company of a totally different color, I would still look.
• 11:54
  Raymond Aaron: And I got even more addicted when I was in another city.
• 11:57
  Raymond Aaron: I would look for 1207.
• 11:59
  Raymond Aaron: Anyways, my mother and father had the most dysfunctional relationship where she was an
• 12:06
  Raymond Aaron: extreme bully and he was a victim. And so she laid out crap and he took it. And he wasn't educated.
• 12:16
  Raymond Aaron: And I really had trouble talking to him when he was alive. And even though I didn't believe it,
• 12:20
  Raymond Aaron: I took my sister's word and I hired this lady, went to her suburban home. I thought it would be
• 12:30
  Raymond Aaron: And she told me the rules that if he comes,
• 12:33
  Raymond Aaron: he doesn't have to come, but if he comes,
• 12:35
  Raymond Aaron: he's gonna share something with you
• 12:37
  Raymond Aaron: that only you and he know.
• 12:39
  Raymond Aaron: And the day after he died,
• 12:41
  Raymond Aaron: I was at the office getting nothing done.
• 12:44
  Raymond Aaron: And I said, "Gee, I'm hungry."
• 12:45
  Raymond Aaron: And I looked at my watch and it said 12 o' 7.
• 12:48
  Raymond Aaron: And I said, "Hi, dad."
• 12:50
  Raymond Aaron: And then I went to eat.
• 12:51
  Raymond Aaron: And then late at night, I said, "Gee, I'm getting tired."
• 12:55
  Raymond Aaron: I looked at my watch and it said 12 o' 7.
• 12:58
  Raymond Aaron: And I said, "Hi, Dad, there are only two 1207s in any day."
• 13:04
  Raymond Aaron: And I was seeing one or two of them
• 13:07
  Raymond Aaron: every day for a couple of weeks.
• 13:08
  Raymond Aaron: It was really shocking.
• 13:10
  Raymond Aaron: Anyways, I go to see this lady, Carolyn,
• 13:13
  Raymond Aaron: and she says, "I think your dad just came in the room
• 13:17
  Raymond Aaron: and he's saying, 'Clock, clock, clock, clock.'"
• 13:19
  Raymond Aaron: I'm saying, "Clock? What the heck's clock?"
• 13:22
  Raymond Aaron: And then I remembered 1207.
• 13:24
  Raymond Aaron: And I said, "Oh, I know what he means."
• 13:27
  Raymond Aaron: And then dad said to me, I hear you every time.
• 13:32
  Raymond Aaron: Every time I saw 1207 on my watch,
• 13:35
  Raymond Aaron: and I said, hi dad, I hear you every time.
• 13:39
  Raymond Aaron: Nobody could know that.
• 13:41
  Raymond Aaron: And then I asked him a question.
• 13:43
  Raymond Aaron: Your wife, my mother, was such a bitch to you,
• 13:47
  Raymond Aaron: but you always seem to be happy.
• 13:48
  Raymond Aaron: Were you happy or were you just covering it up?
• 13:51
  Raymond Aaron: And he said something he could have never said
• 13:53
  Raymond Aaron: while he was alive.
• 13:55
  Raymond Aaron: He said, "The style of life I chose doesn't matter.
• 13:58
  Raymond Aaron: It's whether I achieve my six intentions."
• 14:01
  Raymond Aaron: I said, "Wow, dad, did you?"
• 14:04
  Raymond Aaron: He said, "I achieved four and I didn't achieve two."
• 14:07
  Raymond Aaron: I said, "Dad, tell me which ones you got
• 14:10
  Raymond Aaron: and which ones you didn't get."
• 14:11
  Raymond Aaron: And he said, "That's for me to know."
• 14:13
  Raymond Aaron: And he left.
• 14:14
  Raymond Aaron: And I have been sold on past life
• 14:19
  Raymond Aaron: and communicating with the,
• 14:20
  Raymond Aaron: you're not communicating with the dead body.
• 14:23
  Raymond Aaron: The dead body is dead.
• 14:24
  Raymond Aaron: You're communicating with the soul of the dead body
• 14:27
  Raymond Aaron: and the soul can't die.
• 14:29
  Raymond Aaron: And so as much as I detested it and thought it was stupid
• 14:33
  Raymond Aaron: and regretted even going there,
• 14:35
  Raymond Aaron: and halfway there I was on the verge of turning around
• 14:39
  Raymond Aaron: and driving back 'cause it was so silly.
• 14:41
  Raymond Aaron: I went through with it and it was a real life changer
• 14:44
  Raymond Aaron: for me, but I have no idea how to do it
• 14:47
  Raymond Aaron: as a full-time career.
• 14:49
  Raymond Aaron: So you are a magician in my eyes.
• 14:52
  Corbie Mitleid: - Well, if you love it, you do it.
• 14:54
  Corbie Mitleid: It's like anything that's entrepreneurial.
• 14:57
  Corbie Mitleid: Your business will change.
• 14:59
  Corbie Mitleid: When I first started doing this,
• 15:00
  Corbie Mitleid: I was traveling a great deal.
• 15:01
  Corbie Mitleid: I would record sessions on cassette tapes.
• 15:05
  Corbie Mitleid: Now, between my age of 70, the world has changed
• 15:10
  Corbie Mitleid: and we have social media.
• 15:12
  Corbie Mitleid: I do everything on Zoom, TikTok, Patreon, Twitch,
• 15:19
  Corbie Mitleid: and you have to move with the world.
• 15:24
  Corbie Mitleid: but as long as you do it for what it's meant for,
• 15:27
  Corbie Mitleid: helping people find their answers,
• 15:29
  Corbie Mitleid: giving them strength,
• 15:30
  Corbie Mitleid: showing them that they can change their own lives,
• 15:34
  Corbie Mitleid: it's not up to any Gerbers or any self-help master.
• 15:37
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm doing my job.
• 15:38
  Raymond Aaron: - Right.
• 15:39
  Raymond Aaron: Now, considering this a job,
• 15:42
  Raymond Aaron: I'm gonna ask you a really tough
• 15:44
  Raymond Aaron: and wildly inappropriate question.
• 15:46
  Corbie Mitleid: - Yes, I pay my taxes.
• 15:48
  Corbie Mitleid: (laughing)
• 15:50
  Raymond Aaron: - Can, have you had a failure?
• 15:52
  Corbie Mitleid: Have you-
• 15:53
  Corbie Mitleid: - Of course, geez Louise.
• 15:56
  Corbie Mitleid: Are you talking about failures of clients
• 15:57
  Corbie Mitleid: or failures of business or what?
• 15:59
  Raymond Aaron: - No, someone comes to you, says,
• 16:01
  Raymond Aaron: "I wanna speak to my dad," and you just can't deliver.
• 16:05
  Corbie Mitleid: - Absolutely, and I tell them,
• 16:06
  Corbie Mitleid: "I'm really sorry, but I'm just not connecting.
• 16:09
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm not your person."
• 16:10
  Corbie Mitleid: And if I can, I send them to another intuitive
• 16:13
  Corbie Mitleid: that I know and trust.
• 16:15
  Raymond Aaron: - Oh. - For instance,
• 16:16
  Corbie Mitleid: I can do some health stuff, but I'm not the best.
• 16:19
  Corbie Mitleid: To me, my buddy, Stacy Wells,
• 16:20
  Corbie Mitleid: is the best medical intuitive in the US.
• 16:23
  Corbie Mitleid: I send you there.
• 16:25
  Corbie Mitleid: Yeah, I can talk to my own Maine Coon Cats,
• 16:27
  Corbie Mitleid: but I'm not an animal communicator.
• 16:29
  Corbie Mitleid: I send you to Catherine Knack,
• 16:31
  Corbie Mitleid: who's in the UK, but a dear friend.
• 16:33
  Corbie Mitleid: That's part of being a professional intuitive.
• 16:35
  Corbie Mitleid: You never take money for what you can't do.
• 16:38
  Corbie Mitleid: And if you can't help your client,
• 16:40
  Corbie Mitleid: if you can, you send them to someone you know
• 16:42
  Corbie Mitleid: and trust that will.
• 16:44
  Corbie Mitleid: - Wow.
• 16:45
  Raymond Aaron: I thought it would be a tough question,
• 16:47
  Raymond Aaron: but it was a really interesting question.
• 16:49
  Corbie Mitleid: - I've written a book called,
• 16:51
  Corbie Mitleid: "You've Got the Magic Who Needs a Genie"
• 16:52
  Corbie Mitleid: that is everything I learned in 18 years on the road
• 16:56
  Corbie Mitleid: for this kind of a business.
• 16:57
  Corbie Mitleid: My nickname was the Travel Channel.
• 17:00
  Corbie Mitleid: So I did it specifically so people who are intuitives
• 17:05
  Corbie Mitleid: or in the holistic field had a business manual
• 17:08
  Corbie Mitleid: that wasn't, let's bring,
• 17:10
  Corbie Mitleid: this is how you open up your pharmacy.
• 17:12
  Raymond Aaron: - Tell me the title of your book again, it was fascinating.
• 17:15
  Raymond Aaron: - "You've Got the Magic, Who Needs a Genie?"
• 17:18
  Raymond Aaron: That's one of my--
• 17:19
  Raymond Aaron: - Ha, ha, ha.
• 17:20
  Raymond Aaron: you have the magic, who needs the genie?
• 17:23
  Raymond Aaron: - That's right.
• 17:24
  Raymond Aaron: - But I don't think I have the magic.
• 17:25
  Raymond Aaron: I don't think I can speak to people who passed.
• 17:30
  Corbie Mitleid: - Then you won't.
• 17:31
  Raymond Aaron: - Ooh.
• 17:32
  Corbie Mitleid: - It's like the old saying by Henry Ford,
• 17:36
  Corbie Mitleid: whether you think you can or you can't,
• 17:38
  Corbie Mitleid: whatever you believe in, right?
• 17:40
  Corbie Mitleid: But this is one of the reasons
• 17:41
  Corbie Mitleid: that the book we've mostly been talking about
• 17:44
  Corbie Mitleid: is called "The Psychic Yellow Brick Road,
• 17:46
  Corbie Mitleid: How to Farm the Real Wizards and Avoid the Flying Monkeys."
• 17:49
  Corbie Mitleid: It is not a book that tells you how to be a psychic.
• 17:52
  Corbie Mitleid: There are 60,000 books out there like that.
• 17:55
  Corbie Mitleid: This is a book on how to choose a psychic,
• 17:57
  Corbie Mitleid: what we can do, what we can't do,
• 17:59
  Corbie Mitleid: what questions are appropriate, when to get up and leave,
• 18:03
  Corbie Mitleid: 'cause there are no books out there to keep you safe.
• 18:05
  Corbie Mitleid: And I don't care if you never come to me
• 18:08
  Corbie Mitleid: after you buy that book.
• 18:09
  Corbie Mitleid: If it helps you in any session
• 18:12
  Corbie Mitleid: with an intuitive consultant that you go to, I did my job.
• 18:15
  Corbie Mitleid: And that is the gift that your listeners
• 18:19
  Corbie Mitleid: is going to get, it's the first two chapters of that book.
• 18:23
  Corbie Mitleid: I have it in a short ebook called "Psychic Answers"
• 18:25
  Corbie Mitleid: that I will be happy to send them.
• 18:27
  Raymond Aaron: - Wow, wow.
• 18:29
  Raymond Aaron: So I'm so stunned by this that I'm out of question.
• 18:33
  Raymond Aaron: (Ramon laughs)
• 18:34
  Raymond Aaron: Really, this is a very bad trait for a professional speaker
• 18:38
  Raymond Aaron: to be lost for words, very bad habit.
• 18:42
  Corbie Mitleid: So is- - Ramon,
• 18:44
  Corbie Mitleid: I have done 400 podcasts in the last 10 years.
• 18:47
  Corbie Mitleid: you could ask me about mashed potato recipes
• 18:49
  Corbie Mitleid: and I'd have it like that.
• 18:51
  Raymond Aaron: So please don't be hard on yourself.
• 18:53
  Raymond Aaron: - Is there a question that you wished I would ask
• 18:56
  Raymond Aaron: 'cause you have a dazzling answer?
• 18:58
  Corbie Mitleid: - Not a thing.
• 18:59
  Corbie Mitleid: That's the other thing is I don't come in here
• 19:02
  Corbie Mitleid: with a set, I gotta tell them this.
• 19:04
  Corbie Mitleid: I just open up, look at my guide,
• 19:07
  Corbie Mitleid: and say, I have no idea what's gonna go on, let's have fun.
• 19:10
  Corbie Mitleid: And it's always the right stuff.
• 19:13
  Raymond Aaron: - Are your parents proud of you
• 19:14
  Raymond Aaron: or are they still scratching their head about what you do?
• 19:18
  Corbie Mitleid: - My mother, my parents had a relationship
• 19:21
  Corbie Mitleid: really much like yours.
• 19:22
  Corbie Mitleid: My mother died in '84 and then my father remarried
• 19:25
  Corbie Mitleid: an absolute treasure of a woman.
• 19:28
  Corbie Mitleid: So my mother really didn't understand me at all.
• 19:32
  Corbie Mitleid: Dad and Shirley understood their daughter.
• 19:35
  Corbie Mitleid: In fact, when an intuitive from Lillydale
• 19:38
  Corbie Mitleid: brought my father in about a year after Shirley died in 2009,
• 19:42
  Corbie Mitleid: they were a riot.
• 19:43
  Corbie Mitleid: Um, first it was Shirley,
• 19:47
  Corbie Mitleid: 'cause she had died really suddenly of a heart attack.
• 19:49
  Corbie Mitleid: And she said, "But then there was your father."
• 19:52
  Corbie Mitleid: And he said, "Yes, but, you know, I was late to the office."
• 19:54
  Corbie Mitleid: He was a cardiologist.
• 19:56
  Corbie Mitleid: And she goes, "But he was so handsome."
• 19:58
  Corbie Mitleid: He said, "That's probably why you died.
• 20:00
  Corbie Mitleid: You couldn't stand my handsomeness."
• 20:01
  Corbie Mitleid: And this is just coming out of the meat of his mouth.
• 20:03
  Corbie Mitleid: And that was Dad and Shirley.
• 20:05
  Corbie Mitleid: So, even for those of us who do it,
• 20:09
  Corbie Mitleid: when we get our dead people with that kind of love and humor,
• 20:13
  Corbie Mitleid: It's it's just a treasure and it tells us yes, what we do is real Wow not just reading somebody else's mind
• 20:20
  Raymond Aaron: It's what we do is real. Okay, so instead of looking backwards in the genealogy. Let's look forwards. Do you have children?
• 20:27
  Corbie Mitleid: No, I knew when I was 13. I was born without the mommy gene
• 20:31
  Corbie Mitleid: I'm a terrific aunt but now I knew that I would be raising re-raising myself and
• 20:37
  Raymond Aaron: Children were not part of the mix. Okay, but you're a great aunt
• 20:41
  Raymond Aaron: Do your nephews and nieces understand what you do?
• 20:44
  Raymond Aaron: Do they think you're crazy or they love you or what?
• 20:48
  Corbie Mitleid: - I didn't know about my niece, but my nephew does.
• 20:50
  Corbie Mitleid: When he was 13, he said to me,
• 20:52
  Corbie Mitleid: "Are we our souls or are our souls bigger than us?"
• 20:55
  Corbie Mitleid: And I said, "Robert, darling,
• 20:57
  Corbie Mitleid: I am not allowed to discuss this with you as a minor.
• 21:00
  Corbie Mitleid: When you're 18, we'll talk."
• 21:02
  Corbie Mitleid: When he was 18, we did.
• 21:04
  Corbie Mitleid: He absolutely believes on what his aunt does.
• 21:09
  Corbie Mitleid: and I will very often sign letters,
• 21:12
  Corbie Mitleid: TPSA, the psychic sneaky aunt,
• 21:14
  Corbie Mitleid: because we always talk about this
• 21:16
  Corbie Mitleid: away from everyone else in the family.
• 21:18
  Corbie Mitleid: - Why can't you talk to him till he's of age?
• 21:21
  Corbie Mitleid: - Because his parents did not believe in
• 21:24
  Corbie Mitleid: or approve of what I did.
• 21:26
  Corbie Mitleid: - Oh, I see.
• 21:27
  Corbie Mitleid: - There are people in my family who think that to this day
• 21:30
  Corbie Mitleid: that I'm still just a carny elf who steals people's money.
• 21:32
  Corbie Mitleid: Well, let it be well.
• 21:34
  Corbie Mitleid: You can't do what I've done full time
• 21:37
  Corbie Mitleid: for almost 25 years and be a fake.
• 21:40
  Corbie Mitleid: So.
• 21:41
  Raymond Aaron: - Wow.
• 21:42
  Raymond Aaron: So your career is like set,
• 21:45
  Raymond Aaron: you've got clients over the world,
• 21:48
  Raymond Aaron: you're happy and you know how to handle success,
• 21:52
  Raymond Aaron: you know how to handle, let's call it failure.
• 21:54
  Raymond Aaron: If you don't deliver, you refer.
• 21:57
  Raymond Aaron: What's the, are you just gonna keep doing it
• 21:59
  Raymond Aaron: or is there a next day?
• 22:01
  Corbie Mitleid: - Oh yeah, I, oh no, no, no.
• 22:02
  Corbie Mitleid: I tell people I'm gonna be doing it
• 22:04
  Corbie Mitleid: until I'm two weeks dead,
• 22:05
  Corbie Mitleid: that I'll flip my sign from psychic to spiel guy,
• 22:07
  Corbie Mitleid: keep the office.
• 22:09
  Corbie Mitleid: (laughing)
• 22:10
  Raymond Aaron: - You got to put in your resume that you're really funny.
• 22:15
  Corbie Mitleid: - Oh, it's on my website on the little intro video.
• 22:18
  Corbie Mitleid: Trust me.
• 22:20
  Corbie Mitleid: And the thing is, because I make people laugh,
• 22:23
  Corbie Mitleid: their shielding goes down.
• 22:24
  Corbie Mitleid: It's easier to get the information in.
• 22:27
  Corbie Mitleid: I don't come across like a lot of psychic students,
• 22:29
  Corbie Mitleid: you know, my aura don't stink,
• 22:30
  Corbie Mitleid: just listen to me and shut up.
• 22:32
  Corbie Mitleid: When someone sits down with me,
• 22:33
  Corbie Mitleid: I look at him and say, "What is the most important thing
• 22:35
  Corbie Mitleid: "you wanna walk out of here knowing?"
• 22:37
  Corbie Mitleid: If they go blank on me, I go Brooklyn on them,
• 22:39
  Corbie Mitleid: and I go, "Darling, what's biting your butt?"
• 22:41
  Corbie Mitleid: Boom, they will know what they came to see you about.
• 22:44
  Corbie Mitleid: I will start talking.
• 22:45
  Raymond Aaron: - And I need to tell you something very coincidental.
• 22:49
  Raymond Aaron: - Oi.
• 22:50
  Raymond Aaron: - It's actually 12/07.
• 22:53
  Raymond Aaron: - Hi, Dad!
• 22:54
  Raymond Aaron: - Hi, Dad.
• 22:55
  Raymond Aaron: Thanks for saying that.
• 22:57
  Raymond Aaron: Hi, Dad.
• 22:58
  Raymond Aaron: And so if my dad is saying anything,
• 23:01
  Raymond Aaron: He's saying, "End the show, you nailed it, son."
• 23:04
  Raymond Aaron: So you said you had something really nice for us.
• 23:08
  Raymond Aaron: At least, what do you have for us?
• 23:11
  Corbie Mitleid: - This is an ebook that has the first two chapters
• 23:14
  Corbie Mitleid: of the "Psychic Algebra" grade.
• 23:16
  Corbie Mitleid: The first one is "Psychics 101,
• 23:18
  Corbie Mitleid: How to Find a Great Psychic,"
• 23:20
  Corbie Mitleid: and then "Psychics 102,
