• 1:37
  SPEAKER_02: So let's get into it.
• 1:38
  SPEAKER_02: Hey Laura.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_02: Hey Lauren.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_02: So how did you become an animal communicator?
• 1:44
  Well I met my animal communicator mentor when I was 18 working
• 1:48
  at a vet clinic and
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_00: she was another assistant and quite a few years later I needed an animal
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_00: communicator for my lizard who got lost.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: He was lost for a couple of days and
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: Poor adult humans could not find him in a very small apartment.
• 2:08
  SPEAKER_00: So I called her up and asked her for help.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: And she told me exactly where he was in the house, in the couch.
• 2:17
  And she told me it would be one to two days before he came out
• 2:20
  to the left side of
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: the couch,
• 2:22
  SPEAKER_00: which is exactly where he came out two days later.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_00: That's awesome.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: She had described my living room exactly the way it was.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: How could she possibly have known that from a state away?
• 2:32
  she was in New Hampshire and I'm in Massachusetts and so I
• 2:36
  needed to know how this
• 2:37
  worked and um she offered animal communication classes so I
• 2:43
  immediately signed up
• 2:44
  for one and then I signed up for the second one before I even
• 2:47
  started the first one
• 2:50
  and here I am that's awesome so you just dove right in yep well
• 2:57
  let's just dive in
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_02: and see what a reading's like um
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_02: Does the animal need to be present for a reading?
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_00: No,
• 3:04
  I actually prefer it if the animal isn't and that I know as
• 3:08
  minimal about the
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_00: animal as possible.
• 3:10
  I only need to know the animal's name,
• 3:13
  species,
• 3:15
  gender,
• 3:15
  and whether they're alive or in spirit.
• 3:18
  SPEAKER_02: So the animal doesn't need to be alive on this plane?
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: Nope, it sure doesn't.
• 3:23
  It is easier for me to connect with animals who have passed 15
• 3:27
  years ago or sooner though.
• 3:29
  And also sometimes if it's been very recently passed,
• 3:32
  it's a little bit difficult too.
• 3:35
  SPEAKER_02: That's fascinating.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_02: So how do you connect with the animal?
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_00: Well,
• 3:39
  you sort of go into a little bit of a meditation and then I go
• 3:43
  into sort of a dark
• 3:45
  room mentally and then invite the animal in and ask them if
• 3:49
  they would like to
• 3:50
  SPEAKER_00: communicate with me.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_02: So it's like a subconscious safe space.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, some people call it a white room.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: For some people it looks like a room or the woods.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_00: Mine turned into a dark room.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, that's nice.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_02: So kind of like a cozy space for them.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:08
  SPEAKER_00: And then I asked them how they would like to present themselves.
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_00: Sometimes they show themselves as they really are.
• 4:14
  Like I've seen a horse that looked exactly like the horse he is
• 4:18
  in person.
• 4:20
  SPEAKER_00: And sometimes they show themselves as bigger or smaller.
• 4:25
  a really shy dog that I connected with once showed herself as
• 4:28
  sort of a shadow in
• 4:29
  the corner oh yeah so they really kind of just show up as how
• 4:35
  they feel themselves
• 4:36
  as yes and that can change from reading to reading with the
• 4:41
  same animal sometimes
• 4:42
  they feel one way on a certain day and sometimes they feel a
• 4:46
  little bit differently
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: the next day just like us
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_02: So once you're in this space and the animal starts presenting themselves,
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_02: do they just start talking to you?
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_00: Some animals are chattier than others for sure.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_00: Some of them are more shy.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: Some of them are more sort of reserved,
• 5:02
  like they're not sure if they're ready to give you all their
• 5:05
  secrets or not.
• 5:06
  And some of them just kind of are ready to word vomit at you
• 5:09
  and teach you all of
• 5:10
  the lessons that they know and are willing to share all of
• 5:14
  their feelings.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_02: So is it important to have like a set list of questions?
• 5:19
  SPEAKER_00: You can.
• 5:20
  Some people really want some specific questions answered when
• 5:23
  they come to animal
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: communication but you don't have to.
• 5:26
  Sometimes the animals have more of an idea and they want to
• 5:29
  drive things in a
• 5:30
  specific direction or sometimes what they want to focus on is
• 5:35
  the life lesson that
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: they're here to teach you.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_02: Do all animals have specific life lessons for you?
• 5:41
  SPEAKER_00: All of them do.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: Every animal that you have ever crossed with has something for you.
• 5:48
  SPEAKER_02: That is pretty cool.
• 5:50
  SPEAKER_02: So besides having a set list of questions,
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_02: is there any other reason an animal communicator would be necessary?
• 5:58
  SPEAKER_00: People usually have some general questions,
• 6:01
  SPEAKER_00: questions about specific behaviors,
• 6:03
  SPEAKER_00: they want to know about their life lessons,
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_00: or they want to connect with a pet in spirit for closure.
• 6:09
  So there really is a plethora of ways that an animal
• 6:11
  communicator can be helpful.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah,
• 6:13
  I've even used an animal communicator for a variety of ways
• 6:16
  that I didn't even
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_00: think of at the time.
• 6:19
  In your experience as an animal communicator has certain
• 6:23
  animals been more vocal or
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_02: has there been like stereotypes for certain animals?
• 6:30
  I would actually say that most of the time you get what you
• 6:34
  don't expect for
• 6:36
  instance obviously I have a lot of pet snakes and when other
• 6:39
  people communicate
• 6:40
  with them they don't normally expect to have such character
• 6:45
  personality but there's
• 6:48
  SPEAKER_00: a lot in there
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_02: I bet.
• 6:50
  They're not just slithering about,
• 6:52
  they have their own little personalities.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_02: Well, how would you feel about doing a reading right now?
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_02: Sure, why not?
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_02: Sounds great.
• 7:01
  SPEAKER_02: Who should we connect with today?
• 7:04
  SPEAKER_02: I'm thinking we should connect with my poodle Sandy.
• 7:08
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, is she alive or in spirit?
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_02: She is in spirit.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_00: All right, give me one second to connect in.
• 7:18
  seeing her sitting on like a little dog bed looks like a little
• 7:23
  donut underneath
• 7:24
  her and she's just looking at me like hey what's up I'm gonna
• 7:32
  ask her to tell me a
• 7:33
  little bit about herself she said she's very smart and she's
• 7:45
  I'm feeling a really
• 7:46
  SPEAKER_00: like strong
• 7:48
  feeling in the center of my chest like she's got some opinions
• 7:50
  and she really holds
• 7:52
  on to them totally she said she was important to you you're
• 8:04
  still important to each
• 8:05
  other but you don't feel her as much as you used to she tries
• 8:10
  to leave you messages
• 8:13
  SPEAKER_01: sometimes she does pop through
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_00: Do you want to ask her anything specific?
• 8:21
  Hmm Now that you have passed,
• 8:25
  is there anything in particular that you enjoy?
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_00: I'm going to ask her out loud just so you can hear it,
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_00: but I'm also going to ask her kind of internally Now that you've passed,
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_00: Sandy,
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_00: is there anything in particular that you enjoy?
• 8:44
  SPEAKER_00: She's showing me the leg
• 8:48
  stereotypical grassy field with some trees and the bright
• 8:52
  sunshine but she's also
• 8:54
  showing me that she gets to spend time with you and with your
• 8:59
  parents and with
• 9:00
  other people that she really loved kind of all at the same time
• 9:04
  she gets to kind of
• 9:05
  go and be with whoever she cared about oh that's really sweet
• 9:09
  so she can kind of
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_02: like jump in between the worlds I love that yeah

• 9:51
  SPEAKER_02: She could just be being sassy.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_00: She could be.
• 9:56
  She is also giving me the sort of feeling that this also
• 10:00
  sometimes happens when you
• 10:01
  don't ask a question that's specific enough or they feel like
• 10:04
  it's obvious like
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_00: she's kind of giving me the feeling that everybody's here.
• 10:10
