Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: This is the Wholeness Network, a space for people who
- 0:04are done performing wellness and ready to actually feel it.
- 0:08I'm Michelle Wingel, and every episode, we're going deep into healing, identity,
- 0:14the spiritual stuff nobody talks about, and what it really
- 0:17means to come home to yourself. So let's go. I
- 0:26love a clean, fresh house, and my guest today can
- 0:30help you do that. on an energetic level. When I
- 0:34first met Kay Margaret online and we were chatting about
- 0:38the things that maybe we could do to support her
- 0:41and for her to contribute to the Wholeness Library, I
- 0:44just loved the idea of her work. She's trained as
- 0:49an angel Reiki master and she was shown a way
- 0:54to use that gift in homes to declutter the energetic
- 1:01noise that builds up in a home. And you will
- 1:06be really amazed at the experiences she shares, the hints
- 1:13and tips that she receives to help you feel supported
- 1:19and joyful in your home. Make sure to check out
- 1:23her website and links in the show notes. And like
- 1:27I say, please leave us a nice review and watch
- 1:31the video version in the Wholeness Library.
- 1:35Speaker 2: My family on my father's side are winemakers in Germany.
- 1:39And so I took time off during college to go
- 1:43live and work in Germany. And I really wanted to
- 1:46work on my language skills because growing up in the U.S.,
- 1:49my parents are both German teachers, so it was there,
- 1:51but we got to a point where we would come
- 1:53home and speak English and hear German and not fluent.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:57Speaker 2: So living there really helped with that. And then I
- 2:00loved working in the wine business at my aunt and
- 2:02uncle's winery. It's just the seasonality of it, that connection
- 2:06to the respect of the land, the connection to the
- 2:11different timings of things, just the flow again. I really
- 2:16appreciated that. And then I had been studying, I went
- 2:18back to college and I had been studying biotechnology. I
- 2:20was always fascinated with, science. That was always my favorite
- 2:25because it's like, I think that's why we study energy.
- 2:28It gives you some insight into life and to how
- 2:31the world works and why this and why that. And
- 2:35the more you learn about science, the more you know
- 2:38you don't know. So there was all, I was always
- 2:41a questioner. I remember in seventh grade, one of my
- 2:44teachers gave me a most inquisitive award at the end
- 2:46of the year, just to make a point that I
- 2:48asked too many questions. But it's how I learn. So
- 2:51even in college, when I asked questions in science class,
- 2:54I would eventually get to the end if they couldn't
- 2:56answer the question or it felt like it wasn't complete.
- 2:59So I think spiritually, energetically, there were always some questions
- 3:04for me. And I loved winemaking, so I ended up
- 3:08coming out to California, which is where I still live,
- 3:10to continue that. I've worked in all facets of the industry.
- 3:15And it, for me, was a marriage of that science
- 3:18and art. because it too is dependent on an agricultural
- 3:21product where you're at the mercy of the earth and
- 3:24the weather that year. But on the other hand, the
- 3:30moment that comes together is so unique that it's this
- 3:33combination of the grower and the product of grapes, the
- 3:37quality of grapes, but then also that year's winemaking and
- 3:40the winemaker's influence. And then finally... what your mood is
- 3:44and your meal is when you open that bottle of wine.
- 3:46So that all the things that came into play to
- 3:49make that moment, that moment is so special. And I
- 3:52really appreciated that. So that idea of enjoying the moment
- 3:57and having this respect for spirit and how unique and
- 4:02beautiful everything can be without our curation of it all,
- 4:07like this co-creation, this idea of co-creation, I think that
- 4:10opened up. And then for me during COVID, is when
- 4:14the spirituality really, my spiritual awakening happened. Oh, wow. Everything
- 4:19kind of, I mean, I think for a lot of us,
- 4:20everything changed during COVID. Yeah. But it all kind of
- 4:23hit and all the things that I've been doing and
- 4:26running around and trying to get done and keep everybody happy,
- 4:28it couldn't do in that structure. You know, I always
- 4:32say my world felt like a horizontal marathon before the
- 4:35COVID and afterwards a vertical one, and I just couldn't
- 4:38keep up. So I knew there were happy people in
- 4:40the world.
- 4:41Speaker 1: I knew.
- 4:42Speaker 2: On the outside, my life looked great. And I was like,
- 4:45I'm missing something. So I really looked inward. And that's
- 4:48when my spiritual awakening happened and learning about energy and
- 4:52moving from energy work on people to energy work on spaces.
- 4:56I moved around a lot as a kid. So I've
- 4:58always had that awareness, but never really the language to
- 5:02put to it. So I'm so excited that all that's
- 5:05kind of come together now.
- 5:07Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. Well, and I get it. Honestly,
- 5:11I get that. And so what I think was interesting
- 5:14is looking back during that upheaval, you know, where you
- 5:19say everything looked perfect on the outside, but it kind
- 5:21of felt heavy on the inside. So because you work
- 5:24with homes, what did your home look like then? Or
- 5:27what do you look back and see? Is there anything
- 5:30that you say, oh, that makes sense from where you've come?
- 5:33And I guess we got to get into what you
- 5:35do a little bit, but what do you look back
- 5:39and see what was that Was that part of the
- 5:42awakening or, you know, that kind of perspective? Because I
- 5:46love your perspective on the home.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I think my home before, I was just living in
- 5:52a world of shoulds. You know, I should do this
- 5:54and I should do that.
- 5:54Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 5:55Speaker 2: In order for my kids to be happy, I need
- 5:57to do this. And that broke that outer shell. And
- 6:00I realized, okay, my kids are spirits having their own
- 6:03spiritual journey. I'm here to support them. Or like, there
- 6:06is use in fun. You know, like. Fun means you're
- 6:10raising your vibration and you're setting this new tone. Like
- 6:14it's an investment that returns. It's not this like extra
- 6:18that looks nice. So allowing for that yes to say
- 6:23to little fun moments or yes to bring in more
- 6:26color into my decor. You can kind of see my
- 6:29piano has a whale painted on it. That was a
- 6:31fun manifestation. Yeah. So I think before I didn't enjoy
- 6:36my home, I felt it was like... a structure I
- 6:41had to set up for other people to be happy
- 6:42and it was that was a responsibility and I think
- 6:45now there's more art there's more recognition of those little
- 6:50subtle things that are uplifting and raise your vibration one
- 6:54of the things I talk a lot about with my
- 6:55clients is nature and how much nature is refreshing for
- 6:58us and how can you bring nature in you've got
- 7:01beautiful floral print for me it's mountains I have lots
- 7:04of mountain prints around my home And they don't yell
- 7:07at you, but it's just that as I walk through
- 7:09or do things, it's like, oh, I feel a little
- 7:11more connected or I feel calmer. Or it's those subtle,
- 7:15almost subconscious, energetic notes that can really help.
- 7:20Speaker 1: Yeah, I think if you came to my house, almost
- 7:22everything on the wall is purposeful. During my kind of awakening,
- 7:29I had this really vivid dream of a zebra. Wow.
- 7:35We went out shopping and there was like a big
- 7:37print of a zebra. And I mean, I have to
- 7:39buy it and bring it home. And it was helping
- 7:44me see that like two, things are not black and white,
- 7:50but that doesn't mean they're opposing. They can be harmonious.
- 7:53Do you know what I mean? And so it's very
- 7:56meaningful to me. It sits right above my big tub
- 7:58that I love to remember that.
- 8:00Speaker 2: That's fantastic.
- 8:02Speaker 1: But I think this is a quote, it's your home
- 8:05isn't just where you live, it's where your frequency live.
- 8:08And so can you kind of unpack that a little bit,
- 8:11maybe for someone that's never heard that, you know, I
- 8:14think it's, I'm sure we can ask questions forever on that.
- 8:18Speaker 2: Well, I think that's a lot of our conditioning is
- 8:20very logical minded where we think, okay, this is a function, right?
- 8:24The living room has a function, the kitchen has a function.
- 8:26What are the different, what do I need to set
- 8:29up to make this space work? But then when we
- 8:31have guests over, we don't. We think about the mood,
- 8:35the vibe, the energy. We really curate the experience. We say, okay,
- 8:39when they come in the front door, I want them to,
- 8:41I don't know, have a big sigh of relief or
- 8:43smell Christmas scents if it's Christmas time. Or I want
- 8:45this music on to set that kind of tone. And
- 8:48I want the people to move through the home this
- 8:50way and get the food here. It's a very curated experience.
- 8:53And I think for ourselves, we really tolerate a lot
- 8:57less and we forget that The home is where it's one,
- 9:02maybe you didn't build it yourself, but you picked it
- 9:05on some level and it's that sanctuary for you. It's
- 9:08your refresh place. Maybe it's your workplace. It's this space
- 9:12that's there to support you. And with a lot of
- 9:15my clients, I work on, okay, a lot of the
- 9:17things we picked sometimes throughout our lifetimes helped us in
- 9:21different ways, but maybe are not in tune with who
- 9:24you are becoming. So how can we look at that
- 9:26energetics of the space and be, again, that subtle support.
- 9:32So that frequency is another way of saying the energy.
- 9:35What are you attuning with? And so trying to make sure,
- 9:39like you said, in your space, it's very conscious that
- 9:41when you see these things, you pick things that are
- 9:43uplifting for you. Whether it's a hand be down, you
- 9:47didn't know how to let go of, or say goodbye
- 9:49and thank you, or whatever it may be, helping tune
- 9:53that space to support where you want to go.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. And what I love about what
- 9:59popped into my mind as we were chatting the first
- 10:03time is when I was kind of learning the energy
- 10:06world and learning about the chakras. And what I love
- 10:10about the chakras is it's like I have this issue
- 10:14in my life and I find the chakra that that
- 10:17belongs with. And I work on that chakra, you know,
- 10:20because sometimes you don't know what to do or you
- 10:22feel out of control or whatever, but it's like, just
- 10:25work on that chakra. And then you brought that idea
- 10:28into the home. And it's almost like, you know, look
- 10:31at the energetics of your home and then work on
- 10:33that maybe. And then that can help you feel uplifted.
- 10:37Cause I think, like you say, we're so logic minded.
- 10:40We want to to produce that rather than cure curate
- 10:45it it's a little bit different you know rather than
- 10:47create an experience that helps us feel happy we kind
- 10:50of want to just feel happy you know like what's
- 10:52wrong with.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Me right or serve the function oh i need to
- 10:55eat okay i need these supplies right and not just
- 10:58think about the time that we experience the memory there
- 11:02is in that experience and how it feels so giving
- 11:07allowing yourself the grace i mean i always give this
- 11:09example of like bowls when I, for a long time,
- 11:12we had these kitchen bowls, like cereal soup bowls that
- 11:16were chipped. We just had them for a while. And
- 11:18when I grew up, you didn't throw anything away until
- 11:20it really couldn't be used. And it just, it was
- 11:23an energetic weight. Every time I saw them, every time
- 11:25I washed them, every time I used them, every time
- 11:26I set the table, oh, oh, you know, I felt sad.
- 11:30And then at some point I was doing this work
- 11:32and I realized, right, I'm the grownup now in this situation.
- 11:35I can just throw them out and go buy new ones. Okay.
- 11:38And it wasn't that big of an investment. And now
- 11:40with COVID, you don't even have to go in the store.
- 11:42You can just park and they bring it to you.
- 11:44And then I came home and it's been years and
- 11:46I still get excited to use those bowls. So it's
- 11:49just these little tweaks. Where is a small investment where
- 11:52you can get that big return? Right.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Yeah. I think we think that as adults, we're not
- 11:57supposed to have that little twinge of excitement very much.
- 12:00You know, like the Christmas, the night before Christmas, we think, or,
- 12:03you know, that that's something that's beyond us or whatever, but. No,
- 12:08that's the feeling we're trying to get. And which is
- 12:11very different than just, you know, a sense of not
- 12:17a dope. It's different than a dopamine hit. You know
- 12:18what I mean? It's joy.
- 12:20Speaker 2: It is joy. Exactly. That higher frequency and then allowing
- 12:25yourself to savor that and to be in that feeling
- 12:29and to realize, yeah, that it's not just a luxury,
- 12:33but that can be your new energetic minimum. And that
- 12:37just opens so many doors for you that allows for
- 12:40that opportunity.
- 12:41Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. Okay, so you talk about energetic clutter. And
- 12:49so talk about how that accumulates. And I think that
- 12:51like your chipped dishes were that same, it's just kind
- 12:54of happens. But let's talk about how we accumulate that
- 12:58and what that looks like or what.
- 13:00Speaker 2: That feels like, I guess. Yeah, that was news to me.
- 13:02So I kind of call it energetic dust. It actually
- 13:04happens naturally, just like physical dust does. So everything is energy.
- 13:08You are energy. I am energy. I mean, if you
- 13:10look down at the molecules in my desk, the atoms
- 13:12are moving. So everything is energy. And it kind of
- 13:15gives off this residue, whether it's things, people, or even
- 13:19emotional attachments we have. Or if you think of an
- 13:23easy example is you know, if someone's had an argument
- 13:25in a room and you weren't there and then you
- 13:27walk into the room, you're very aware there was an
- 13:30argument without anyone telling you usually. There's this energetic residue
- 13:35and you pick up on it. So it's all kind
- 13:38of around us. It collects in the homes, often in
- 13:40the corners, kind of like dust does. And so it's
- 13:43nice to have a refresh regularly, but sometimes there's a
- 13:46big change. Sometimes Somebody's moved into a new home, so
- 13:49you've got this whole new energetic footprint out with the
- 13:52old and with the new, and that deems a good
- 13:54time for a whole refresh. Or you've got welcoming a
- 13:57new member of the family, whether a baby or a pet.
- 14:00In these big life transitions, there's often a call for
- 14:03a bigger reset.
- 14:07Speaker 1: We went to a secondhand store looking at old cookbooks,
- 14:13me and my husband and my daughter and my grandson.
- 14:16And when we were coming out to the car, now
- 14:18I've talked about this forever, but it felt so nice
- 14:20to have them say it. They were like, I'm exhausted.
- 14:25And I'm like, this is what I've been telling you.
- 14:27You know, like my mom used to love going to
- 14:30secondhand stores and looking at books.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Treasure hunting.
- 14:32Speaker 1: And that was one of the things as I learned about,
- 14:35you know, some of my gifts and stuff, I was like,
- 14:38That's why I did not like going in there. It's
- 14:41like there's so much energy attached to so many different
- 14:44energies in that place because they belonged somewhere. You can
- 14:49feel it. You can feel it. Things do have an energy.
- 14:52And the person that they belong to sometimes, I think.
- 14:56Speaker 2: And I think you're right to notice that it comes
- 14:58with everything. I think those of us who work with
- 14:59crystals are pretty aware that when you buy a crystal,
- 15:01you kind of need to cleanse it before you work
- 15:03with it with you. But everything that you're bringing in
- 15:06and any of the spiritual tools that you like to
- 15:09use work with clearing the space and the energy of
- 15:12the thing. I really love that one of the strongest
- 15:15things is just setting your attention, saying a prayer, using
- 15:17your words, calling in the angels for help. That works great.
- 15:21But if you like a smudge stick, if you like crystals,
- 15:24whatever that tool is that you like to use. But
- 15:26like you said, bringing that awareness that it's not just
- 15:29you paying attention to how you feel that matters. And
- 15:32if you get that instinct that something is off, sound
- 15:35is another good one. A lot of spaces really work
- 15:37with sound. So You can clap or I use my
- 15:39sound bowl, changing the frequency in the air to clear it. Yeah.
- 15:45Speaker 1: I remember the first time I learned about using smoke,
- 15:51like a sage or whatever, to do my house. And
- 15:58we would go around. My friend was like, we're just
- 16:00going to sage it. We're going to sage your house.
- 16:03And it was during the time when me and my
- 16:04husband were having difficult times and the smell would be
- 16:08different in different rooms.
- 16:09Speaker 2: Oh, my goodness.
- 16:11Speaker 1: And that we could tell, like, the intensity in certain
- 16:14places where I knew that we had had, you know,
- 16:16places that we kind of had arguments or where I
- 16:19had cried, my closet where I'd cried so much. Like,
- 16:21it was, you could tell. And it was, we had
- 16:24a third friend come, like, halfway in the middle of it.
- 16:28And I said, go smell that room. You know, and
- 16:30she wasn't, like, a spiritual type person. She was like, uh,
- 16:33that is weird. Yeah. So we were making it up.
- 16:38It was really, really interesting. And so, you know, that
- 16:43time I was just like, okay, it was one of those, yeah,
- 16:45there's something I can't see, but something's going on because
- 16:49I can smell it.
- 16:51Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you do that, you want to open
- 16:53a window for a little bit to let that release. Right, right.
- 16:56Because you've kind of turned it all up and then
- 16:58you want it to get out, yeah.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Yep, yep. Yeah, we let it, yeah, we left the house,
- 17:03opened up all the windows.
- 17:04Speaker 2: There you go.
- 17:05Speaker 1: And said, okay, but, and it was interesting. It was,
- 17:09it was really interesting.
- 17:10Speaker 2: Okay.
- 17:10Speaker 1: So I think people, um, logic minded people are going
- 17:15to think about like, um, physical decluttering, you know? So how,
- 17:20how do you know the difference between a home that
- 17:23needs physical decluttering and a home that needs energetic clearing?
- 17:27And maybe they look identical. I don't know.
- 17:31Speaker 2: I think it depends on the person. The energy comes.
- 17:33So energy, emotions are energy in motion. It really comes
- 17:36across as how you feel. So if there are places
- 17:38in your home that feel heavy or stuck, that's usually
- 17:42when I get called in to help. And most of
- 17:44my work right now is remote. So I don't actually
- 17:47see the inside house. I get a blueprint of the home.
- 17:50But often they are connected. So if you declutter for
- 17:54five minutes, I always say set a timer because it's
- 17:57really easy to get down that rabbit hole of a
- 17:58big cleaning project. But just tidying up a little bit
- 18:02sets a positive energetic anchor. When you see the space,
- 18:04you feel better. When you use the space, it's a
- 18:06little cleaner. That can always help. When I see energy
- 18:10flow through a space, when it goes in a home,
- 18:13it usually comes in the front door and out the
- 18:14back if you have a back door, but somehow goes
- 18:17through the whole space. For me, it looks like in
- 18:19my mind's eye, you know, the weather pattern maps where
- 18:23you see the airflow currents, it kind of looks like that.
- 18:26So if you've got a tidier space, It's easy for
- 18:29the energy to flow in and flow out, less likely
- 18:32to get stuck. If there's more physical clutter, it's more
- 18:35likely to get stuck. But also if we are keeping
- 18:38more physical clutter, often there's an emotion tied to it
- 18:41that hasn't been dealt with. So to just give yourself
- 18:45grace and not, you know, again, in my work, it's
- 18:47all about what's the little change I can make and
- 18:49get a big investment. So maybe you got a big
- 18:52pile of papers and you aim for the one at
- 18:53the bottom. If you don't do the whole stack, just
- 18:55start at the bottom. It's been months since you've looked
- 18:58at it. And that'll help you feel lighter and clear something.
- 19:02Or if it's that coffee table at a client who
- 19:05had a coffee table, she kept tripping over because it
- 19:07was too big for the space and it came out.
- 19:09It was a hereditary item. She'd gotten it from her
- 19:11great uncle who had passed and she felt bad with
- 19:13giving it away, but it didn't fit. So making peace
- 19:16with that, saying thank you, finding it a new home,
- 19:20going through those emotional steps, the energetics of it to
- 19:24allow it to let go allows... When you let go,
- 19:27you make space for the new opportunities to come in.
- 19:29So it is nothing but good for you, but it's
- 19:32not easy. It's a bit of the grieving process. You're
- 19:34going through that letting go process a little bit. So
- 19:38it can be heavy emotional work. So recognizing that it's
- 19:43not just you with the physical clutter. You know, there's
- 19:45that energy tied to it. There's more work than it looks.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, well, so tell me, we should have started
- 19:54a little sooner with this, but tell me how, so
- 19:57what you do, how people connect with you, and what's
- 20:02that process like? Because I think it's a unique, energetic process.
- 20:07Everybody goes to have energy sessions, but this is so unique.
- 20:10I love this idea. I think it's something we probably
- 20:14need to do often.
- 20:16Speaker 2: I love it too.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Our space.
- 20:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love how it's such a way to
- 20:20support people and it makes such a difference. So I
- 20:23trained as an angel Reiki master, which is a combination
- 20:26of Reiki, energy healing, and mediumship. And I first worked
- 20:30on people and worked with the main chakra centers. And
- 20:33the angels in my spirit guides kept bringing space messages
- 20:36stuff in front of me, like, you know, homes would
- 20:39come up or podcasts or all these things. And I
- 20:41was like, one day I just sat down and I said,
- 20:43iJournal was the easiest way for me to communicate with them.
- 20:46And I was like, okay, what gives? This is fun,
- 20:49but I don't understand. And I basically got a download
- 20:53of how I could use my training in the Angel
- 20:55Reiki and apply it to spaces. So actually when I
- 20:57give a report, so how it starts is people find
- 21:00me through my website or if I've connected with them. Again,
- 21:03often there's a big life transition or they feel this
- 21:08heaviness and stuck moved into a new home whatever it
- 21:11might be I've had all different types of intentions we
- 21:13always set an intention whether it's connecting more with your
- 21:17intuition or maybe there was difficulty communicating within the family
- 21:21or there's been a range of things and then I
- 21:24get a blueprint which is often just a hand sketch
- 21:26of the home but I need each room labeled with
- 21:29one word so bathroom bedroom living room and I start
- 21:33when I connect I clear energetically everything and tune in
- 21:36like I used to for bodies and do around the home.
- 21:40I also ask who's joining me for the clearing from
- 21:43the other side. There's often two to three archangels and
- 21:47sometimes a loved one from the other side. So I
- 21:49make note of that. And then we go through and
- 21:52again do the outside if there's any landscape or grounds
- 21:55and then in the front door and just go room
- 21:57by room and I take notes the whole time. And
- 22:00then afterwards provide a full report to my client. And
- 22:03then we often meet afterwards too, for any questions. Cause
- 22:06it's sometimes a lot of information or just how that,
- 22:10that comes through. But I love that after the clear,
- 22:14each space is cleared. The angels often have a little
- 22:17message like, oh, and it's always so subtle, which I
- 22:19find so loving. Like if you wanted to, you could
- 22:23support this space by adding, like there was one room
- 22:26that was high traffic and the energy built up very quickly.
- 22:30And they recommended putting a rock salt to help absorb
- 22:32some of that so the buildup didn't happen so quickly. Or,
- 22:36I don't know, sometimes the energy is a little out
- 22:40of balance and they've suggested more earth tones to help
- 22:44ground the space. So there's all these little suggestions that
- 22:47come through for each space and each space is different.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Okay. So do you... Do people, have you had people
- 22:55come that say like their house is haunted or that
- 22:58kind of thing? Has that shown up for you?
- 23:00Speaker 2: Yes, it has. So in the beginning it didn't because
- 23:02I said I wasn't ready to work with them. I'm sure.
- 23:04But once I got more established and I was like, okay,
- 23:07I can do this. And they do show up. Yeah.
- 23:12Sometimes there are clearings and I get to help the
- 23:14spirit pass. Sometimes they know there's a ghost. Sometimes they
- 23:17don't know there's a ghost. Like I had somebody whose
- 23:20TV flicked on and off. randomly by itself. So they
- 23:23knew somebody was around. But I had other ones, the
- 23:27lady I was thinking of who had communication issues in
- 23:30her family who had moved into a new home, that
- 23:32turned out to be a mirror of the ghost who
- 23:34was there, who was having those emotions. So helping her
- 23:37cross over helped really clear that out. So it does
- 23:41come up, but for me, it's always ends up being
- 23:44a positive experience because the ghosts that I work with,
- 23:47they're just lost. They're confused. They don't know why why
- 23:51things don't work like they should, why are they there?
- 23:54And they've got all these big emotions, whether it's fear
- 23:57and scared or angry or frustrated or whatever that might be.
- 24:01So I just get to help explain what's happening. And
- 24:04then the angels create that portal so they can cross over.
- 24:07Speaker 1: I think it's interesting. Yeah. I love that. I think
- 24:09it's interesting that, you know, where it's, it's scary to
- 24:13us humans, but also, and I don't want to take
- 24:16that away for people that that's kind of scary, but
- 24:18at the same time, um, It's interesting that we think
- 24:23we're going to transform. You know, we think that we're
- 24:25going to become someone different as we pass on. But
- 24:28you know what? We're still figuring it out. Even after
- 24:32we've moved on. And there's some beauty to that. You
- 24:35know what I mean? There's some beauty to that. That
- 24:38I think, you know, you as an individual are so important.
- 24:42We're not even going to change you. You know what
- 24:44I mean?
- 24:44Speaker 2: That's true. That's beautiful.
- 24:45Speaker 1: You get to be who you are. Or you have
- 24:48your experience.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Yes.
- 24:50Speaker 1: And it's valid and accepted. And even though it's not
- 24:54fun or pleasurable, but I just, that's, it's just, that
- 24:58was a difference I had to kind of make for
- 25:01myself to be like, isn't that fascinating?
- 25:03Speaker 2: Isn't that fascinating? Yeah, that the collective learns through the individual.
- 25:06So the individual really counts, even though, yeah, when you
- 25:11get to go home to the other side.
- 25:12Speaker 1: So well said.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's, it is beautiful.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Yeah, so well said. So, yeah. So you say you
- 25:21have to clear and connect in. So does that mean
- 25:23that you don't have stuff happening all the time? You're
- 25:27not constantly dealing with the energy?
- 25:30Speaker 2: No, I tune in and then tune out.
- 25:33Speaker 1: You tune in. So that's nice.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Yeah. The only times I've had it is if I
- 25:37have one scheduled and then I've had spirits show up
- 25:41like an hour before the session. Right. And I'm like,
- 25:45what are you doing here? Yeah. You're early. You know,
- 25:50I had one where like a ghost wants to be
- 25:51yelling at me the whole time. And I was like, okay,
- 25:53I'm coming. And then I knew like when I started
- 25:57the session, aim for that room first. Like, you know,
- 26:00no use in doing my normal nice methodical go through
- 26:04in an orderly manner. Like I head there first and
- 26:06address that. So sometimes they show up early when it's
- 26:10scheduled and they know it's going to happen. But no,
- 26:13not all the time.
- 26:15Speaker 1: I think that's special that you specifically do room by room.
- 26:19I mean, each room has its own energy and you
- 26:23even relate them to the chakras.
- 26:25Speaker 2: I do. I include that.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Can you talk about that a little bit, which I
- 26:27thought was fascinating.
- 26:28Speaker 2: It's fascinating for me too. So when you work as
- 26:31a medium, the angels and the spirits on the other
- 26:35side can only use the language you have to communicate
- 26:38with you. Like, you know, when you meet medical mediums
- 26:42and they have more medical knowledge, they can use that.
- 26:45So I think it's partially because I had that language
- 26:48and I understood those connections that it's part of the
- 26:51way they communicate with me. But what fascinates me is
- 26:53every house is different. It's never like the root is
- 26:57the living room. The crown chakra is the, I don't know.
- 27:01It's always different. So it's fun because then I can say, okay,
- 27:05if this is for you, your crown chakra, like for
- 27:07one lady, it was her back porch. I was like,
- 27:09this is a really great place for you to connect
- 27:11with spirit. And she goes, oh, yeah, that's actually where
- 27:14I go do my meditations. So it always lines up
- 27:18with the person. It's never the same. But it is,
- 27:21like you were saying, when you identify that that chakra
- 27:24can help you with something and then you spend time
- 27:26with it, it's kind of like that. Okay, this is
- 27:29the heart of the home. You know, just be aware
- 27:32of that, how that affects the family dynamics or how
- 27:35that affects you and how you can support it because
- 27:37it's linked. Okay.
- 27:41Speaker 1: So you're clearing and you're offering ways to take advantage
- 27:47of the energy of each room.
- 27:49Speaker 2: Yeah, the idea is you get to maintain it and
- 27:52you get some insight on how that house works.
- 27:58Speaker 1: And then how often do you think it's something that
- 28:01people would want to do more often? Or have you
- 28:05ever had someone come back a second time and say,
- 28:07ready again?
- 28:09Speaker 2: Yeah, because they like the information too and the check.
- 28:13But I think I often, with my signature experience, I
- 28:17offer a custom blessing. So I like to give you
- 28:20some of the tools that you can use kind of
- 28:22on a regular basis. And then we can check in
- 28:26if you feel stuck, if it feels heavy, like the
- 28:28tools you have aren't supporting you in the way you
- 28:31need or if there is some other change. And so
- 28:35it's kind of what happens in life. Okay.
- 28:38Speaker 1: True yeah I love it is there been a time
- 28:41when a home kind of or is there a story
- 28:44of when a home kind of resisted you or or
- 28:46the opposite if it just was super magical both I've
- 28:50had both and I yeah I'd love to hear about.
- 28:53Speaker 2: It again it gives you so much any time I
- 28:56get to do this work it's so I I'm just
- 28:59a witness um kind of you know the channel but
- 29:02it's so empowering but also so awe-inspiring um Thinking of stuck,
- 29:08I had a house once where there was a particular
- 29:12concern for the garage. Like it was used as a
- 29:14storage area and they were hoping to clear it out
- 29:17and kind of jumpstart that need with their partner and
- 29:22kind of get the conversation flowing. And the angels blacked
- 29:26it out for me when I got there. And they said,
- 29:29it's not time. There's a lot here. It's not time now.
- 29:32And I got frustrated because like, oh, wait a second.
- 29:35I got hired to clear this. Let's uh work with
- 29:38it and they're like no no it's not time so
- 29:40I had to go back and say I'm sorry I
- 29:42couldn't lift the energy here but they give a very
- 29:45clear message that it will happen but it's not time
- 29:48right now so they were accepting of that which was
- 29:51lucky um but it does sometimes because there are like
- 29:56you can't manifest for someone else There are lots of
- 30:01different dynamics going on, so it's not always, everything's not
- 30:05always accessible, but we try.
- 30:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I was going to say, I bet that comes
- 30:10up quite a bit. They're like, you know, my teenage
- 30:12child is really bugging me. Can you clear this up? Or,
- 30:16you know what I mean? Is it kind of like,
- 30:18does that come up as far as they want to
- 30:20change the dynamics of the household?
- 30:23Speaker 2: Some times, but I would say most of the time
- 30:26people are just worried. You know, they want everyone to
- 30:29have the best and they love, you know, it's more
- 30:32of a loving intention. But sometimes there is a surprise.
- 30:36There was a woman who was feeling some stuck energy
- 30:40and it turned out her uncle who had recently passed
- 30:42was stuck there. So there was this idea of, okay, well,
- 30:47he's feeling forgotten. Can we make an altar somehow in
- 30:52this space to remember family and ancestors? Because I think
- 30:58it would help ground you and that love would be
- 31:00felt from the other side. So sometimes things come up
- 31:03you don't even realize, but you can kind of feel that.
- 31:07And with kids' rooms, usually it's just... It's more of
- 31:12an information, more of a clearing, and what's reflected back
- 31:15is often the personality, which is fun. Yeah.
- 31:20Speaker 1: I love that. It sounds like there's just all sorts
- 31:23of solutions, and it's so creative. I love it.
- 31:26Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it.
- 31:26Speaker 1: I love it.
- 31:27Speaker 2: Well, I mean, that's one. I think I'm trying to
- 31:31say all the things at once. Well, you know, often
- 31:33people are afraid of spirit or talking about these things
- 31:36because they're worried there might be bad news. But for me,
- 31:39it's just such a joy because it's always... Spirit always
- 31:42meets you where you are. You know, the messages are
- 31:45relevant to where you are now in your life journey.
- 31:48There's no judgment, and they're always just suggestions. You know,
- 31:51free will comes first. So it's like, look, you could
- 31:54do this if you would like. It's so nice.
- 31:58Speaker 1: I love that. So what do you think is the
- 32:01most maybe people are surprised by that affects them? You know,
- 32:07like they're surprised that something like that is actually affecting them.
- 32:12Speaker 2: Them.
- 32:12Speaker 1: And I still love your chipped things. Cause I get it.
- 32:15It's like in your, in it, you don't know how
- 32:17much it's affecting you until you kind of change. And
- 32:20you're like, that was, that was a deal. It was
- 32:23so small.
- 32:24Speaker 2: It's so small.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 32:25Speaker 2: Or the towels, like towels get really thin and you
- 32:27just use them. You don't, the bath towels, you don't
- 32:29think about it. How fun is it to have fluffy,
- 32:32colorful towels? So yeah, anything little like that. And, and
- 32:37that comes down to also, caring about how you feel.
- 32:41You know, we have, a lot of us have this
- 32:43old tie to using the best, like, you know, you
- 32:45save the best dishes for the holidays or somebody else
- 32:48when they come over and you forget that you can
- 32:51be the special person and use the best cup for
- 32:53your coffee. So some of the work is kind of
- 32:57that personal development work where it's choosing not to tolerate,
- 33:03but to support yourself and allow for that high energy
- 33:08for yourself. Um, I think in terms of actual things,
- 33:12every house is different for me. It's all, I don't
- 33:15know why, but the, um, the hereditary things where you
- 33:18took something you didn't want, but you felt stuck with it. Right.
- 33:22Pass that.
- 33:23Speaker 1: Um, okay.
- 33:25Speaker 2: But yeah, a lot of times it's things that we
- 33:29purchase that are functional that worked for you at that time.
- 33:33That don't work for you now. Or in general, I
- 33:36would say the three things that always come up are lighting.
- 33:39A lot of us inherit home or we buy home
- 33:41somebody else built. So the lighting structure is set up
- 33:44by someone else and we don't take the time to think, oh,
- 33:47I could really use low lighting in this space in
- 33:49the evening. Or I could use more bright light for
- 33:52focusing for work. How can I change the lighting?
- 33:56Speaker 1: The air.
- 33:57Speaker 2: How can you refresh the air? I always open the
- 33:59windows every day. That's what I like, but you can
- 34:02light a scented candle. You could, how can you change
- 34:05the frequency of the air? That can be a big
- 34:08positive trigger. And then we talked about nature and I
- 34:12really like to bring in your favorite scent. So I
- 34:15like my sense of sight. So for me, that's prints
- 34:18or an actual bouquet of flowers. If you like your
- 34:21sense of hearing the best, you can put nature sounds
- 34:24in the background. Like Not high enough that you really
- 34:27notice it, but low enough that it's there and it
- 34:30makes you feel nice in this space. It kind of
- 34:32just is uplifting. Or if you like sense of smell,
- 34:36then again, a nice essential oil spray or scented candle.
- 34:42Speaker 1: I like it all. I like it all. I'm like,
- 34:45that sounds lovely. I love that. Okay, so here's a
- 34:54strange question. So a couple of years ago, my dad
- 34:58passed away, my mom had passed away a while before.
- 35:00So we as children had to clear out the family home.
- 35:04And there was a lot going on and I didn't
- 35:08take very many things home. I didn't need very many things.
- 35:13And I don't feel.
- 35:22Necessarily bad about that but I do feel like I
- 35:25should feel a little.
- 35:26Speaker 2: Bad about that.
- 35:29Speaker 1: Like that I didn't you know like that and my
- 35:31mom was so she was so a collector and things
- 35:36like were special to her and and we just kind
- 35:39of got rid of stuff and um and so I
- 35:44wondered you know your your take on yeah you would
- 35:48probably be someone who probably has an insight into that
- 35:52Do you think that our stuff matters as much as
- 35:55we think? And you can say yes, and I made
- 35:57a mistake.
- 35:58Speaker 2: Not at all. I actually have a very strong opinion
- 36:00about this, but I would say first is to follow
- 36:02your intuition. So we're all different. I work with homes,
- 36:06and I worked with a woman who loved the color red,
- 36:10and it made her happy and calm to have the
- 36:12entire wall covered with art. I love art, but that
- 36:16much makes me feel a little... claustrophobic and anxious. So
- 36:21I was like, that would not calm me down, but
- 36:23it calms you down. So we're all different. And if
- 36:26it is a positive energetic anchor for you and it's
- 36:29uplifting and you want to bring it in your home, great.
- 36:32But my personal experience, and I've had my husband and
- 36:36I actually talk about this regularly because we just remind
- 36:39ourselves that this is our life to live. And as
- 36:41much as we like the legacy idea, the things that
- 36:44we love, our kids won't necessarily love. So as much
- 36:47as we'd love to pass down even a house or
- 36:50a piece of land, like, let's think about this. At
- 36:53the end, they can make their own life. What they
- 36:57love is not what can be what we love. And
- 36:59we shouldn't have to put that pressure on them and
- 37:02worry about it. Like, we should get to worry about
- 37:05us enjoying the life and the time we have. So
- 37:08we actually have that conversation regularly. And my mother and
- 37:11I had the conversation regularly, too, because we were on
- 37:14opposite ends when I was growing up. For her, the
- 37:16things were very comforting and it established legacy and it
- 37:23established her as part of, there were big mementos for her,
- 37:29different stages in her lifetime and they meant a lot
- 37:31to her. And she would always say, well, these will
- 37:33be yours one day and these will be yours one day.
- 37:35And I was like, okay, but they aren't and they
- 37:39don't need to be. So for me, they don't have
- 37:44that same, that same value. I have the memories. And
- 37:48like you said, there are a few key items that
- 37:51she's passed on already that I love. And they just
- 37:56remind me that I am part of that lineage. It
- 38:00doesn't take a lot to remember, but you really, you
- 38:04want it to be uplifting and a positive thing for
- 38:07you and not a, I have to, should to kind
- 38:09of situation.
- 38:11Speaker 1: Right. Yeah. My kids are not going to have a
- 38:13connection to my zebra of.
- 38:15Speaker 2: They didn't have your vision.
- 38:16Speaker 1: Like they're not going to have that. Yeah, they didn't
- 38:19have it. So that's okay. And when we first, you know,
- 38:24when it was time to kind of work on that,
- 38:26my brother made like a Google Doc and was like, okay,
- 38:30if you want something, put it here, you know, put
- 38:32your name. And he made this Google Doc. And we
- 38:36used it maybe a couple things. But the only thing
- 38:39I wrote on that Google Doc was, we had like
- 38:43these corral dishes and they had the smallest dish and
- 38:47they're you don't you can't really find them anymore they're
- 38:50a little different and I all I wanted was the
- 38:52stack of corral little teeny bowls because um when I
- 38:57was little I was the youngest and it had the
- 39:00same print as the big you know so I would
- 39:02have my little bowl and I felt like I was
- 39:04big you know have it I mean, to me, just day,
- 39:08those bowls give me the great, like, I love those bowls.
- 39:12They make me so happy and they are so worth nothing.
- 39:16They are so worth nothing. And so it's just funny,
- 39:18the things that become special, you know, it wasn't, you know,
- 39:21my mom had these collections that she was like, I
- 39:24bet this is worth money. And I was like, okay, but. Well,
- 39:27I think it's.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Nice that your brother wanted to make sure. everybody got
- 39:30a chance at it and he didn't just yeah it
- 39:32was nice but I agree like we we forget that
- 39:35even within a family every kid has a different experience
- 39:38the parents are a different age when they come around
- 39:40the economics are different the sibling structure is different like
- 39:44Even though you're in the same house, the experience is
- 39:46very different. And like you said, what brings you joy
- 39:50or what is that happy memory or that it elicits
- 39:53that good feeling to you can be different. And it's
- 39:56good to follow that. And it doesn't mean you don't
- 39:59remember them because you don't have your house full of
- 40:01their stuff.
- 40:03Speaker 1: Right.
- 40:04Speaker 2: Right.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Agreed.
- 40:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 40:06Speaker 1: So, yeah, that was just kind of an interesting experience
- 40:08to clear that house out. I'd lived there almost my
- 40:11whole life. Yeah, it's a picture. It's a big job
- 40:15full of lots of emotions. Yeah. So do you clear
- 40:21houses maybe if somebody's going to move? Is that a
- 40:24good time?
- 40:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great time. It's probably a really good time.
- 40:26If you're looking to sell the home and maybe the
- 40:28home's stuck and not selling, that's a great time. If
- 40:30you've just moved into a new home and you want
- 40:32to make sure, just like you would repaint everything so
- 40:35it's a fresh coat of paint for you, you want
- 40:37to clear out that energy and make sure your family
- 40:39has a fresh start, that's a great time.
- 40:41Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. I want that. I'm ready.
- 40:45Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 40:47Speaker 1: I want that. I think that's so, I love it.
- 40:50I just, I love like a, you know, that feeling,
- 40:53that fresh feeling. And so I just feel like, yeah,
- 40:55I never thought of, I mean, I'd like, like I say,
- 40:57I've saged, I use crystals and oils, but I've never,
- 41:00and I've had people do, I've had a clearing once,
- 41:03but it was more about focused on maybe other people
- 41:10like energies, you know, not just the stuff, you know,
- 41:14but I.
- 41:14Speaker 2: Was like, of course. We just tolerate. Somehow we forget
- 41:17when we get home, you know, the drawer sticks and
- 41:19we get frustrated every day and we don't take the
- 41:22five minutes it would be to oil the hinge and
- 41:24fix it because we just deal with it and kind
- 41:26of eat that negative energy. And so if the room
- 41:30doesn't feel great, you're like, oh, but I'm too tired
- 41:32to deal with it. You know, like it's, we forget
- 41:34that the little things kind of do it can be
- 41:38an opportunity to be a little thing that uplifts instead.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Yeah, when we've moved a couple times and you're getting
- 41:45ready to sell the house, I get so mad at
- 41:48myself when I'm like, I'm fixing this for the next people.
- 41:52I should have fixed it for myself. What am I thinking?
- 41:55We made a big deal when we moved to be like,
- 41:57let's have on our calendar, I think every couple of months,
- 42:01maybe it's three months, four times a year, we block
- 42:05out kind of a Saturday and just, okay, what needs
- 42:07to be looked at? And let's do that for ourselves.
- 42:11Let's fix it for ourselves, not just for everyone else.
- 42:15Have you ever had the home tell you that people
- 42:19need to move, like that it's time they're done with
- 42:22this space? Would you think that would ever show up?
- 42:24Speaker 2: That's a good question. I have not had that. I've
- 42:29had an extreme kind of like, I had the seraphim
- 42:33angels come in in mass once in a house and
- 42:36like do this big filter lift up like a house
- 42:39needed a really big change. And I've had like, again,
- 42:46it was fun because I just saw this in my
- 42:48mind's eye. I didn't see the pictures, but somebody had
- 42:52their partner was a mechanic and they had kind of
- 42:54car parts strewn in the front yard. It was a
- 42:56country home. And the angels very clearly said, go ahead
- 42:59and move those to the back of the property. That's
- 43:01really impeding the flow of energy and opportunity and abundance
- 43:04and all these things. So sometimes they'll say to move
- 43:07stuff around or to clear a space, the front entryway
- 43:12of your home, even if you don't use the front
- 43:13door regularly, that's energetically a symbol of welcoming abundance, opportunity,
- 43:19energy into the home. So you want that to be clear.
- 43:21So that comes up regularly of, okay, that's a neglected space.
- 43:24Give it some TLC. Um, but I haven't had anybody
- 43:28yet to be like, oof, not a good fit. Out
- 43:31you go. Yeah.
- 43:35Speaker 1: That's probably.
- 43:35Speaker 2: Yeah. It's more like, this is your space. Let's make
- 43:38it work for you.
- 43:39Speaker 1: Yeah. We have a, a, a one, a video in
- 43:43the library. Um, and she's this, she's this young mom.
- 43:48She just is very, um, intentional with taking care of
- 43:51her home. So every, like every Monday, I think it is,
- 43:54she talks about sweeping her front front porch, just, and
- 43:58it's more symbolically than it is, it needs to be cleaned,
- 44:01that it's just a refresh, you know. And I loved
- 44:05that idea. I wish I would have had that growing up, or,
- 44:07you know, when I was busy being the mom and
- 44:10doing all that stuff, to have those kind of, make
- 44:14it a ritual. I mean, it made the taking care
- 44:17of the home A ritual. And to hear yourself.
- 44:19Speaker 2: That's a really nice meditation because then you're just out
- 44:22there doing something methodical for five, 10 minutes and it's
- 44:25a breather space and your self and your space is
- 44:30going to win. Yeah. I love habit stacking. So with like,
- 44:35I think that's James Clear that does that, but you know,
- 44:38same thing. What small investment instead of kind of taking
- 44:41on the whole home going, okay, For me, bad example,
- 44:44but this was popped into my head. It's like cleaning
- 44:46the toilets. Not my favorite chore ever, but it needs
- 44:49to be done. So whenever I take out the trash
- 44:51every week for the trash cans, I think, okay, I
- 44:55can habit stack this also not so nice chore and
- 44:57go ahead and do it while I'm in the bathroom. Yeah, smart.
- 45:00But finding, like you said, little habits that can help
- 45:04with the upkeep and not feel so heavy.
- 45:08Speaker 1: Do you have a small shift that usually makes a
- 45:11big difference that... that you found for people or would
- 45:14you give people a small, something small that makes a
- 45:17big difference or maybe it's big?
- 45:20Speaker 2: Well, I think it, if a lot of it's custom,
- 45:23so paying attention to how you feel. So if, if
- 45:25it is that kitchen drawer, a bathroom door that is, um, sticking,
- 45:30or we all have that junk drawer, whether it's in
- 45:32the kitchen or the bathroom. So if you clear that
- 45:34out and get rid of some of that junk, that
- 45:36actually usually is a good reset. Um, Or just paying attention.
- 45:40So like I said, for me, it was bowls and towels.
- 45:43Maybe for you, it's, I don't know, pillows, something else.
- 45:48So seeing what kind of irks you the wrong way
- 45:51and changing it. But other than that, I go back
- 45:53to the light, the air, and the nature. So see
- 45:56how you can just look at, okay, in this space,
- 46:00and every space is going to be different, is this
- 46:03really serving me? Do I struggle to read in the
- 46:06evening because I need a brighter light or do I,
- 46:08you know? Bring that awareness in.
- 46:12Speaker 1: So were you, have you been invited by the angels
- 46:16or whatever to, does it align with feng shui at
- 46:19all or has that not been the case?
- 46:21Speaker 2: Not yet. I've started reading about it. I appreciate it.
- 46:24It's such an old methodology and it has so much
- 46:30set up, you know, like there's so much structure to it,
- 46:33but I haven't been certified in it. You haven't dived
- 46:36deep into it. It seems for me. at least for now,
- 46:40to work so well, to work with the angels and
- 46:42receive their messages for those little tweaks that come through
- 46:47for each individual person. I really enjoy that. And that
- 46:50seems to land.
- 46:53Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's right. I don't know much about
- 46:56feng shui. I mean, I'm not against it or anything
- 46:58like that. But I feel like that's almost the shift
- 47:02that has happened in a little more than the last decade,
- 47:05I feel like, is There used to be rules, you know,
- 47:08feng shui is very rule-oriented, and we've moved into more
- 47:11of a, like you're saying, well, how does it feel
- 47:14to you? More of an individual way of doing it.
- 47:16Speaker 2: Yeah, that feels right. And maybe, like you said, maybe
- 47:20it's just a swing of the pendulum the other way,
- 47:22where we've been living under so many rules, and we've
- 47:24been conditioned so long that we're trying to figure out
- 47:26where we fit in that world and hear ourselves as well. Yeah, true.
- 47:31But that does, it does feel better for me, but
- 47:34at the same time, I recognize... there are, there's a
- 47:37lot of history there of like, what does blue mean
- 47:40typically mean to people? What is green? So there is
- 47:43a lot there to draw from, but I think you
- 47:46can get lost in it. So if you can start
- 47:48with you and then add on as it follow your intuition.
- 47:54Speaker 1: That makes sense. Okay. So I want to talk a
- 47:56little bit about your Reiki training just because it's, it's,
- 47:59it's unique to me at least. So tell me a
- 48:04modality and what made that one different and what that
- 48:07was like getting that Reiki. And then we'll talk about
- 48:10transferring it over to your homes and more of that process.
- 48:14But how is that Reiki different than other Reikis? And
- 48:19maybe that's all you know.
- 48:20Speaker 2: Yeah, well, yeah, I haven't done another program, so I
- 48:22don't know exactly. We did have three attunements like other
- 48:25Reiki programs. I think there was just this recognition and
- 48:29the teacher does a lot of mediumship. So she recognized
- 48:32that when the main chakras act like portals. And so
- 48:36when you get to those centers, often when they open,
- 48:40messages start to come through. And so to recognize the messages,
- 48:45to recognize that, to kind of open that door and
- 48:49allow for it, and to learn how to receive messages,
- 48:54to learn how to discern between the ego and the
- 48:56intuition that When we're working as mediums, the egoic mind,
- 49:00how do I explain that? They kind of literally feel heavier,
- 49:03the thoughts. And the intuitive ones, the ones from spirit,
- 49:08feel lighter and softer. So getting to discern and allow
- 49:13that ego to pause and to those messages to come
- 49:16through and that messages uh to build the confidence to
- 49:20say what you for me it's see i see a
- 49:22lot in my mind's eye sometimes i hear sometimes i
- 49:24smell but it's and sometimes i know but mostly it's
- 49:27seeing um to trust those because when you're a channel
- 49:31when you're a medium the messages aren't for you they
- 49:33are using your language so you can get clues but
- 49:37you always have to relay them So when I'm taking notes,
- 49:39even now for homes, images will come up and I'm like,
- 49:42I don't get this, but I'll write it down because
- 49:45then when I deliver the message, it makes sense to
- 49:47the recipient. Yeah.
- 49:51Speaker 1: Yeah. I can really appreciate that. When I went through
- 49:53my Reiki trainings, you know, you would, you would, we
- 49:57would have the classroom version, you know, and then we'd
- 49:59get to the practice as we're practicing. And as soon
- 50:02as the practicing goes on, everyone is it. I mean,
- 50:06for myself, even, um, And I was still very much
- 50:11kind of in the muggle, you know, more of a
- 50:13muggle at that time. The first time I went through
- 50:15and when I put my hands on, I could just
- 50:17feel my body move, you know, move to it. And,
- 50:21you know, for half a second, you're like, am I
- 50:23doing this? You know, this is strange. I would have
- 50:26loved some more support around that because everybody was getting
- 50:32things different ways. And then that was kind of, you know,
- 50:35you're kind of, and then everybody's like wondering, Is my
- 50:38hand right? You know, they'd move their hand an eighth
- 50:41of an inch down because they got it in the
- 50:43wrong spot. And I'm like, I don't know if energy.
- 50:45Speaker 2: No, I don't think it's that. Yeah, but that's kind
- 50:47of in tune. And when you work remotely and you're
- 50:50working off a body graph, or as I do now,
- 50:52the blueprints, same kind of thing. You start channeling that
- 50:55energy and you get a feel for it. Or I
- 50:58also love that when I clear, every person or every
- 51:02home has a different symbol back to me to tell
- 51:06me it's cleared. Like one time I was working with
- 51:09a woman and the symbol that it was all cleared
- 51:11was this smell of like apple pie. And I was like, well,
- 51:15that's fun. And I just kept going. But at the
- 51:17end I said something and I said, and I, and
- 51:19she goes, oh, that's actually what my perfume is. Everybody
- 51:22always compliments me. It smells like apple pie. And I
- 51:24was like, who would have thought? But it's always, you know,
- 51:28and sometimes it literally looks like wrapping a bow or
- 51:30sometimes it's every time it's different, but there's always a
- 51:33sign for, okay, this is clear, move on. So it's. Um,
- 51:37it's fun, but I, yeah, I agree that I think
- 51:40we all, everyone I've talked to these who works with
- 51:43Reiki energy there, the door is open and you're, you
- 51:46are getting messages, but if that support's not there, and
- 51:48this was fun for me too, cause I got to
- 51:50learn about, um, archangels and the different things they help
- 51:54you too. And it may, it opened up that door
- 51:56too of, you know, when I was, uh, learning and
- 52:00learning first about religion and stuff, again, there are lots
- 52:03of rules of like, you need to pray In this
- 52:05way or to this person to get that help. And
- 52:07then when that door with the angels is open, it's like, nope,
- 52:10they're teams. Just get the prayer out and the right
- 52:14team will come help.
- 52:15Speaker 1: Right. They didn't hear their name, so they're not listening.
- 52:21Speaker 2: Or like, you know, Archangel Michael has, you know, probably
- 52:25trillions of angels on his team. And so you just
- 52:28kind of say, you know, say your prayers, say what
- 52:30you need, say what you're thankful for and the right.
- 52:33There's so many angels waiting to help.
- 52:37Speaker 1: So how did you learn to trust those messages? Good question.
- 52:41And like to me, I mean, doing it during the
- 52:43pandemic and having that, I mean, that doesn't seem like
- 52:46that long ago for me. So good job. In a, quote,
- 52:50short period of time, not only unravel, but put yourself
- 52:54together and then trust it. How did you learn to
- 52:59trust that? Because I think that's one of the most
- 53:01difficult things.
- 53:01Speaker 2: Yes, it's human. And I think it's a constant process.
- 53:03So I think they're sending some sort of light in today.
- 53:08I think I can only give credit to the angels.
- 53:11I think it's one of those things like you're right.
- 53:13Our human brain needs the evidence to kind of like
- 53:17stack up the evidence. So I started learning about archangels
- 53:20and I went through like one at a time to
- 53:21kind of do a deep dive. And I learned about
- 53:24Archangel Michael and attempts to work on myself. I was
- 53:29also exercising and I would do these loops at that
- 53:31time around our back deck just to get out and
- 53:33get a little short walk. because that's what I was
- 53:35available for. That's what I could do at that time.
- 53:37And one morning I went out, and there was this
- 53:39big black feather on the deck. Never before have I
- 53:42ever found a feather on the deck, ever. And I
- 53:45was like, when I just learned about Archangel Michael, and
- 53:47blackbirds are one symbol of Archangel Michael, there's a big
- 53:50black feather. I'm like, okay, somebody heard me. You know,
- 53:53like there were chills, right. Or my cousin passed just
- 54:00before my daughter was born, but we shared a birthday.
- 54:02She was three years older than I. Um, and she's
- 54:07helped me a lot through this process. She was there
- 54:10at two of my attunements from on the other side. And,
- 54:13but she started, she was a prankster. She is a prankster. Um,
- 54:16so she started that, that summer, uh, when I started,
- 54:21I was also, we have a treadmill going on the
- 54:24treadmill and she would stop it mid like stride. And, um,
- 54:30I would get really freaked out. I was like, what
- 54:33is this? And then I realized, okay, wait a second.
- 54:36You've opened this door. Perhaps someone's trying to communicate with
- 54:39you because spirits, I mean, common symbols are like electricity,
- 54:43anything with electricity or coins or feathers and all these things.
- 54:46So I started speaking and I was like, oh, Liz,
- 54:49is that you? And then it stopped. And I was like, oh,
- 54:52that is you playing tricks on me and like just
- 54:54trying to get my attention. But, you know, you got
- 54:57to quit because you're giving me heart attacks. And I
- 55:00dead stop on the treadmill. So, but like little things
- 55:04kept happening where it was like, it's positive. There's no
- 55:08other explanation for it. And if I open that door
- 55:12to admitting there are these connections in the unseen world,
- 55:17there's so much more. And there are all these like
- 55:20through lines and I can see somebody asked for something
- 55:23and then it came and I was like, oh, that
- 55:25was help, you know, like. I no longer believe in coincidences.
- 55:29So what door does that open? Where is this angelic
- 55:32help coming in? Or, you know, letting go of that
- 55:36expectation of the outcome and allowing the universe to make
- 55:40it even better and kind of watching these little things unfold.
- 55:43And then, of course, being a medium, when you get
- 55:46that validation from someone else and you see how much
- 55:48it means to them. And you didn't know it. You
- 55:50couldn't have said it if you thought about it. And
- 55:52it's meeting them where they are in the moment of
- 55:55things they were thinking about personally and not necessarily sharing
- 55:58with everyone. And when I, especially when I worked on people,
- 56:05but sometimes houses too, like for me, the heart chakra
- 56:08always looks like a garden and seeing the beauty of
- 56:12those gardens and people's hearts. I just, I've never seen
- 56:17something so beautiful. So it was kind of like you
- 56:20were saying, your zebra vision. You have that and you
- 56:23can't unsee it. You know, it really affects you. It
- 56:28changes your perspective. It changes your appreciation. It changes those
- 56:33little but very value-oriented things in your beliefs. And you
- 56:39realize it's all reflections of love. It's all positive. You
- 56:42may not understand it all, but it's all working in
- 56:45your favor and everyone's favor. So you go with it
- 56:48and then you see a little bit more and you
- 56:50see a little bit more and that builds.
- 56:53Speaker 1: I appreciate that so much that you saw the changes
- 56:58as so positive. I think for me, things were like,
- 57:04it was like, there's, even as much as like, there's not,
- 57:07it's not coincidences. There's everything's on purpose. Like it was
- 57:10all just unravel, unravel.
- 57:12Speaker 2: Well, yeah. The sense of responsibility is scary at first.
- 57:14You're like, I'm a creator of everything. What did I do? Right. Right.
- 57:23Speaker 1: What would you say if somebody wanted to learn more
- 57:25about the angels? And I, I think too, there's this
- 57:29piece in a lot of us that feels like that's,
- 57:33so sacred that maybe I'm not, you know, how can
- 57:36we feel comfortable connecting with the angels? And where can
- 57:39we learn? Where did you learn about them? And there's
- 57:42so many different resources. Do you have a favorite or
- 57:45a way that you.
- 57:46Speaker 2: So my teacher was Julie Jancis, is who I trained with.
- 57:48And she has a book named after her podcast too,
- 57:52Angels and Awakening. So that was a great resource to start.
- 57:55I'm just naturally curious and I love to learn. So
- 57:59anytime I find a book, I really enjoy reading books
- 58:02about mediums of, of the past because they always offer
- 58:08like little clues of like, oh, this is kind of
- 58:11the thing. So I always pick or listening to podcasts.
- 58:14There are lots of really great podcasts. Um, and just
- 58:18being open to it. I mean, you can always, I,
- 58:20like I said, I communicate with my guides most easily, well,
- 58:22by journaling and free writing. So find whether that's talking
- 58:26for you or writing and, and ask, ask for help, say, Hey,
- 58:30I'm interested in, and learning more about this. And then
- 58:33it always, you know, it'll come in. I went to
- 58:36go buy a new pair of eyeglasses. I've got contacts
- 58:39in right now. And the woman who helped me, next
- 58:42thing I knew, we were having a conversation about her
- 58:44mother on the other side and all the signs she's received.
- 58:47And so I think once you kind of set that
- 58:49intention and you're open to it and asking for help,
- 58:53the universe can help you find resources as well. Mm-hmm.
- 58:59Speaker 1: Well, I just love, I love your trust. I feel
- 59:01like that younger version that questioned is just like on
- 59:05fire now, you know, and you're getting the answers, you know,
- 59:09like you're actually finally finding a medium that will give
- 59:13you the answers and never gets to the end and says,
- 59:16I don't know.
- 59:16Speaker 2: It's great. I just have to remember my stubborn self
- 59:19sometimes thinks I can still do everything by myself. And
- 59:22then I get to him, oh, right, go ask for help. Right.
- 59:26I know.
- 59:27Speaker 1: I hear you. Like I said, I get it from
- 59:28writing most too, but I don't like writing.
- 59:30Speaker 2: No? Oh, I love it.
- 59:32Speaker 1: I'm on read. Oh, I wish. My mom loved it.
- 59:35She's like, you could just practice writing for ages. And
- 59:38I was like, or not.
- 59:40Speaker 2: Well, then you can.
- 59:41Speaker 1: She loved it.
- 59:42Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry. She loved it.
- 59:44Speaker 1: So, you know, it's good. I need to just write
- 59:46my question and then receive my answer. Like I'm trying
- 59:50to write so quickly to try.
- 59:51Speaker 2: And get the words out. Once you get to that space,
- 59:56that clear space where you feel really connected and open,
- 59:59and that's the receiving mode, ask a gentle question and
- 1:00:02just wait, and the answer would pop. Yeah, I just
- 1:00:06forget things really easily. So if I write it down,
- 1:00:09then I've got it for reference.
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: True. True. That's good. That's true. And that is one thing.
- 1:00:15I know that I can... get in my journal, write
- 1:00:17a question. And, you know, I have, I've built that
- 1:00:19muscle of trust that it's like, I can get something.
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: You could record it. Do you ever do voice memos
- 1:00:23for yourself?
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good idea too. And I need to
- 1:00:28just accept the fact that I am more visual. Like
- 1:00:32I am more of just sitting there and like, I'll
- 1:00:36get a download in a vision. And then, so I'm
- 1:00:39trying to describe the vision or, you know, the image
- 1:00:42or the story. And it's like, so big. It's hard
- 1:00:45to even condense it for me.
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: I think a lot of times we also forget that
- 1:00:49it sounds like our own voice. Like I think sometimes
- 1:00:51we're waiting for that divine download and we go, oh,
- 1:00:54you're like the sound of God in my head. I
- 1:00:56don't know. It sounds like you. You just, once you
- 1:01:00get used to it and you realize, oh, I didn't
- 1:01:02have that knowledge. That didn't come from me. Then, yeah. Yep. Yep.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: Oh yeah. Seeing like people that are willing to put
- 1:01:12themselves out there and talk about those things. And, you know,
- 1:01:16these like ideas and ways that the world and the
- 1:01:20universe works. And you're like, Oh, I, I, I've so
- 1:01:23many times I thought, Oh, I'm just, I just thought
- 1:01:24I was just thinking, I thought I was just thinking about, Hey,
- 1:01:27I wonder if that works that way. You know, I
- 1:01:29just thought I was having this own little thought process.
- 1:01:32It was like, Oh no, it's almost word for word
- 1:01:34for what they're saying. Interesting.
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: Um, I love it. All right. Well, I'm excited. Um,
- 1:01:42to share your offering. I really think it's unique and special.
- 1:01:46And I love the way you made it your own.
- 1:01:49That's always, I love that. I make things my own.
- 1:01:52So I always like when people do it so creatively.
- 1:01:55And I think it's a great thing. And I think
- 1:01:59you should create a program and register people and certify people. Oh, wow.
- 1:02:04Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I think you should do that. Help
- 1:02:08other people. Because we need more of you. Because I
- 1:02:10think That is really useful. Really, really useful. I love it.
- 1:02:15So we'll make sure all of your ways for people
- 1:02:18to get a hold of you are in the show
- 1:02:20notes and you have a podcast and that's, so we'll
- 1:02:22put that in there too. And hopefully we'll get some
- 1:02:26videos of you in our library, which will be really,
- 1:02:30really precious. But at the end of our episodes, we
- 1:02:33always want to ask our guests their idea of wholeness
- 1:02:37and what that means to you. What... Your experience with
- 1:02:41that is whatever shows up when we think about wholeness.
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: Well, what comes to mind when you say that is
- 1:02:49kindness and seeing that through line of kindness in every
- 1:02:55way to yourself, to others, recognizing spirit in yourself and
- 1:02:59others in the environment around you. Like we talked about
- 1:03:03everything is energy. And I believe that the highest frequency,
- 1:03:07that energy is, the source energy is spirit. So realizing
- 1:03:11that piece of that is in everything around us, in
- 1:03:14you and in me, and then allowing that to reflect
- 1:03:18in the kindness we show, even if we don't understand,
- 1:03:22that to me feels like getting to be part of
- 1:03:25that wholeness and that energy, that feel-good feeling that you
- 1:03:30can't see, but that reminds you that we're all connected.
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: Before you go, if this episode resonated with you and
- 1:03:40you're craving a place to go deeper, I want to
- 1:03:42invite you into the Wholeness Library. It is our membership
- 1:03:46community where we do this work together. Resources, support, and
- 1:03:50a space where we don't have to figure things out alone.
- 1:03:53You can find a link in the show notes, and
- 1:03:55I'd love to see you there.
