0:41
In a post on Instagram, you stated that our spirit sometimes
0:47
gives us small signs that we are on the right path in life.
0:51
What are these signs that we should look out for?
0:55
Well, for myself. And they're going to be
0:56
individualized to people. But deja vu is often, to me, a
1:00
feeling. And you guys can Google deja vu
1:02
because my explanation of it is just basically you feel like
1:05
you've been there before and that this was kind of a memory
1:10
versus a feeling. Deja vu often very much makes me
1:14
feel like I'm on the right path, repeating numbers.
1:17
A lot of people are like, oh, they're Angel numbers or they're
1:20
this or they're that. I quit looking stuff up.
1:22
It was too time consuming. But I did start taking a picture
1:25
on my phone. So when I get repeating numbers
1:28
on my phone like 555, I just take a quick picture and say
1:31
thank you and it just kind of says whatever I'm doing at that
1:34
moment, I'm headed in the right direction.
1:38
What are some other ones? I love it when birds fly in
1:43
front of me unexpectedly in places where you wouldn't expect
1:46
them to fly in front of you, because I always feel like
1:49
that's spirit. I also feel like our spirit team
1:52
is very often family members. There's different, there's
1:56
different opinions on this as well.
1:59
There's. There's this many opinions in
2:02
the spirituality niche as there aren't any other niche.
2:04
I definitely feel like some of our Passover people who didn't
2:09
function well in life are over there learning through US still.
2:14
So sometimes when I get a dysfunctional relationship, for
2:18
example, I'll bring up my own step.
2:20
Dad, he he was very dysfunctional.
2:23
And when he came through to other mediums, and when I've had
2:26
people come through to me who were dysfunctional in life, they
2:28
often come through with a notebook and a pen and they say,
2:32
oh, I couldn't, I could have done that instead.
2:35
And they are learning through very often the very person that
2:38
I'm giving the reading to. Does that make sense?
2:40
They're continuously looking down here, going through a life
2:43
review, realizing how they messed up, realizing how what
2:48
they did to mess up. Has affected generations and
2:52
created ripples of of cycles and well, my first question there
2:57
though would be, isn't it a little too little too late if
3:01
you passed on and you know? No, because here, here's what a
3:06
lot of people want you to think. They want you to think that you
3:08
get to the other side and it's all love and light and some
3:10
suddenly you're omnipotent and you just know everything and
3:13
you're like your own little God. I don't believe that, and it's
3:16
not what I've seen. I think that this is a learning
3:18
phase, and I think that when we get over there, we keep.
3:21
A lot of people also say that we lose our ego when we get to the
3:23
other side. I don't believe that either,
3:25
because our ego is who we are. It it is a necessary component
3:29
to our personality. As long as it's not up too up
3:32
here and it's not too down here. There's a balance to everything,
3:35
moderation and everything right. And So what happens is it it is
3:39
my opinion from what I have seen from the other side is that they
3:42
are still learning on the other side and that the lessons that
3:44
they learned down here are part of what they take to the other
3:48
side in order to start becoming a better person, a more whole
3:52
person, what have you. I have brought through so many
3:55
apologies from the other side to people.
3:57
Now, having said that, anybody who's a sitter or a human, let's
4:01
say if I was sitting for you and there was someone on the other
4:03
side that you did not want to talk to, I never, ever tell
4:07
somebody they have to talk to them.
4:08
And you will have mediums who are like you need to forgive
4:10
them to move on. No, you don't.
4:13
No, you don't. You need to forgive yourself.
4:15
You need to be kind to yourself, but you don't need to talk to
4:18
someone who abused you from the other side or from any side.
4:22
You don't need to have a conversation through a medium
4:25
who is trying to force something on you.
4:27
So if I ever have somebody who says I don't want to talk to
4:29
that person, I stop immediately and I tell spirit to go away.
4:32
She doesn't want to talk to you. Now if the human the sitter is
4:36
up to apologies, then I will absolutely also go in and get
4:41
those, but I would never force someone to have any conversation
4:45
that they didn't want to have with anyone.
4:47
So that's also something that's a little bit different about me
4:50
because I know that I was, I was pushed to have a conversation
4:53
one time with my step dad and I was like, no, and and and
4:58
period. I say no, so much better.
5:00
Now I say no so much no is actually a complete sentence.
5:08
So, so as far as the signs from the other side that you're on
5:12
the right path, it can also be just in your gut.
5:15
Does it feel good you guys, everybody has to start listening
5:18
to their body. They need to start if you were
5:21
consistently sick. Now there's I'm not a doctor and
5:25
there's going to be some medical reasons why some people are
5:27
consistently don't feel good, but if you're consistently
5:31
feeling down or nauseous or or whatever.
5:35
Start listening to your body. Go ahead and Google what does it
5:38
mean when I've put on too much weight in my belly?
5:42
Because it often means that you are being very self protective.
5:45
Of your energy. And a belly is kind of a shield,
5:48
right? It can also mean you're eating
5:50
too much ice cream, so don't go crazy.
5:52
But yeah, I was going to say like, it could.
5:54
It could just be a diet. You know it.
5:56
Can't. It absolutely can.
5:58
But what we feel, but what we don't think about is how our
6:02
body corresponds to certain emotions.
6:05
Yeah, absolutely. And that's kind of a woo woo
6:08
thing. But when I look stuff up it has
6:10
it has correlated what even even like let's say, because there's
6:14
again, there's going to be a lot of people that listen to the
6:17
show that are like what the hell are they talking about?
6:19
This is nonsense. I feel you, I'm there with you,
6:22
man. I always keep a degree of
6:23
scepticism but I think in this specific instance I mean
6:28
everything's connected isn't it? With our emotions inevitably
6:31
have an impact on you know, your ability to eat.
6:35
You know I can tell you like when I get anxious man I just my
6:39
stomach plays up like something awful carny can't sleep all of
6:43
that. You know so they they is all
6:45
tied together in some shape or form and yeah it's it's
6:50
important. I don't know I I tried to look
6:52
at it. It's like the mind, body and
6:54
soul thing. Like you, you take care of the
6:56
things on a scientific level. You know that you that you
6:59
should do, that you should take care of, and then, I don't know,
7:02
keep your your mind open to the the spiritual stuff and the
7:05
psychic stuff and take what you believe to be true.
7:10
And it's all a process and it's all a process.
7:12
And I never like for example, some people are like, well, now
7:16
you don't believe in God. I say I'm I'm not religion
7:19
shaming anyone. If if it works for you, then it
7:23
works for you in that moment, it might not work for you five
7:26
years from now. What I believed 20 years ago is
7:29
not what I believe now, you know, and and 20 years from now
7:34
maybe I'll look back and be like I don't believe.
7:37
Some of what I believe now do you know what?
7:40
You know what I mean? And I just.
7:42
I just caution people though that, you know, at the risk of
7:46
I'm not trying to put people down in my niche.
7:48
But I would caution people that when you're at your deepest
7:53
grief or when you're at really a crossroads, you should not be
7:58
paying people a lot of money to give you advice that's available
8:01
to you from you. You should never.
8:04
There are no curses that people can remove.
8:06
There are no spells that will bring back your ex.
8:09
They're an X for a reason. There are no.
8:13
Unfortunately, I I heard about a lady who is scammed out of
8:16
$130,000 by a psychic and this is where my mind is boggled
8:22
because who the hell has that much money laying around?
8:25
But who would give it to somebody for for this?
8:29
And so it's just, again, right back to what you said, it's if
8:33
you're desperate, if you're in a position where you know you're
8:36
just so unhappy, you're obsessed with this particular thing, you
8:40
know there's something you desperately want or that you're
8:42
in a in grief, then no amount of money is too much money in that.
8:47
Sense. And and sadly and sadly, that's
8:49
true. And that's how lonely people get
8:51
conned out of money by, you know, people who are being
8:54
catfished as well. And so honestly.
8:58
You. I just want people to know that
9:00
they're. I end up talking to people out
9:02
of psychic readings a lot. I had a gal who was addicted to
9:06
them. She came to me and I said, I'm
9:09
just not going to see you anymore because you're not
9:11
listening to what I've told you in the past and you're not
9:13
listening to yourself. You actually know what you need
9:16
to do, and you aren't doing it because you're looking for
9:19
someone else to feed you a line of shit.
9:22
And so she had to quit coming. Because I'm not.
9:26
You know, we you guys have so much power that you don't give
9:30
yourselves credit for, so let's switch things up.
9:36
What's the most profound or life changing paranormal experience
9:42
you've had? Oh my word.
9:49
Poof. The readings that I give, the
9:52
one that there's. OK, so there's a couple things
9:54
that jump into my mind really fast.
9:56
So I'm going to talk about the premonition and then I'm going
10:00
to talk about this guy. So one of the things that comes
10:04
through for me sometimes, I was doing an animal communication
10:06
reading and honestly I I have too many.
10:09
But this is the one that that pops into my mind.
10:11
I'm sitting there doing a cat reading for this woman and and
10:14
the cat really was just kind of done.
10:16
The cat was like 19 and this woman wanted to move to North
10:19
Carolina with a cat. And I'm trying to gently say it
10:22
might be time to let the cat go. And she's saying, I already let
10:26
a cat go one time, I can't do it again.
10:28
And so instead of instead of wanting to do what was best for
10:32
the cat, she's wanting to do what was best for her.
10:35
As I'm doing this reading, her husband is sitting in the chair
10:39
next to my table. And I said there's a 17 year old
10:42
here and do you, do you have children?
10:45
No. OK And I've learned that
10:47
sometimes I have to go in this big circular fashion when
10:50
information comes in. And I said, all right, well,
10:53
there's a 17 year old here. He has dark hair.
10:55
He's tall. He's kind of lanky.
10:57
He doesn't. He's not on a phone like
10:59
everyone is. He actually reads books.
11:01
He's very good at math. He wants to be an engineer,
11:04
maybe, Or he's going to be an engineer and you don't know this
11:07
kid. You don't know this kid.
11:08
This kid does not exist. No, no, no.
11:10
I want to talk about my cat. I want to talk about my cat.
11:13
OK, All right. So then I'm talking about the
11:15
cat. And I come back.
11:16
I was like, listen, this kid is here again.
11:18
I'm sorry, but sometimes this is the way it happens.
11:22
She looks at her husband and her husband looks at me.
11:25
And I had said he had piercing eyes.
11:27
And I realized that the husband has incredibly piercing blue
11:30
eyes. So then he sits across from me
11:33
and she goes, could it be him? I was like, Oh my God, it was
11:36
his younger self. Coming into the conversation, I
11:40
know, Whoa, hold up, hold up. You've just opened a kind of
11:43
what I'm saying. You're saying it's possible to
11:46
speak to your younger self in a spiritual fashion.
11:49
Absolutely. So let me finish this because
11:52
I'll forget. So he's sitting across from me
11:54
and I said OK because now his hair is Gray.
11:58
So I would not have known that his hair was dark.
12:00
So his hair is Gray. He is tall and lanky.
12:02
And I said, when you were 17, would you understand that your
12:06
life changed dramatically and that there was something that
12:09
you always wanted to do, but you never did it?
12:12
Now, on the one hand that sounds a little bit vague, but on the
12:15
other hand, he knew exactly what I was talking about.
12:19
He had been accepted to a very prestigious military school over
12:24
here in the US at 17. And he was going in to become a
12:28
pilot and at 18 he screwed it up and got kicked out of that
12:34
school and never became a pilot. And so his younger self was
12:39
coming in saying you're not dead yet, go learn to fly.
12:45
And I'm giving him this message and he started to tear up a
12:49
little bit and he's like, this is crazy, This is incredible.
12:54
And I said and and so. The conversation did not go that
12:58
linear, right? So the conversation, I said
13:01
there's something he wanted to do.
13:02
He said I wanted to be a pilot. And I'm like, OK, your younger
13:04
self is like, let's go do it, Let's go kick ass, Let's go
13:09
learn to fly. Now, sadly, the wife still just
13:14
wanted to talk about her cat and I'm like, this is amazing.
13:16
I was going to say like priorities here, like I.
13:20
Was like, this is the most amazing reading and bless her
13:24
heart, she just wants to talk about this cat that's like,
13:26
please put me down, put me down. So it isn't the first time, and
13:31
it wasn't the only time that I've talked to someone's future
13:33
self and younger self, but it doesn't always come in.
13:38
There was one time, this one gal, she was in a little bit of
13:41
a state of depression. And I went back and I said I am
13:45
seeing you between the ages of 19 and 21 and I'm seeing this
13:49
and I'm seeing this and I'm seeing this.
13:50
And she started to smile. And I said that that's what your
13:54
younger self go back and visit with yourself from the ages of
13:59
19 to 21. And I want you to figure out
14:02
what she has that you forgot to bring forward with you.
14:07
And it was crazy. And I get the best feedback
14:12
afterwards. I even have on my Facebook and
14:15
in the and in the niche. By the way, it's not totally
14:17
unheard of. So it's not like it's not like
14:20
this has never happened before. But on my, on my Facebook
14:23
somewhere, there is a meditation for a conversation with your
14:26
younger self. It's more aligned to people who
14:28
have been through trauma and who need to forgive themselves.
14:32
But it is. It is a good meditation.
14:34
If anybody wants to just go, you know, listen to that.
14:38
But then another one that I had was when I first I've always had
14:41
experiences most of us had. By the way, just let me I forgot
14:45
to plug the fact that we all have this.
14:48
We all have this. We can all be mediums, we can
14:51
all be psychic, we can all be intuitive.
14:53
We can all talk to animals. I do not believe that I'm
14:56
special. I do not believe God came down
14:58
and put something on a silver platter and handed it just to
15:01
me. This has always existed.
15:03
I believe it's part and parcel of being a human.
15:06
So let me get that out there. Anybody who says otherwise,
15:10
anybody who says my gift or you know you can't do this, They're
15:14
usually the ones that are full of crap.
15:16
Well, let me ask a quick follow up to that.
15:18
Why do you think then, if that's true, why do you think then the
15:23
majority of people are not open to that or not able to access
15:26
that or don't even have the slightest bit of a psychic
15:30
feeling or whatever? Because they do.
15:34
But they discredit it, or they put themselves down, or they
15:36
reason themselves out of it. How many times have you been
15:39
shown a sign when you're like, oh, that was just coincidence?
15:42
So it's just a coincidence that you saw loved or.
15:45
But okay, let's ramp this up. Let's flip this for a second.
15:48
Let's say the concept, the concept of seeing ghosts, OK,
15:53
I've always thought in the context of what you're talking
15:55
about, this has always been a good sign because it's like, if
15:57
you can see ghosts, chances are you're more open to the spirit
16:02
world or that kind of energy or whatever, right?
16:05
And if you can't ever see ghosts, and you're in the same
16:08
space as that other person who can see it and you can't see it,
16:13
what does that sort of represent?
16:16
So my whole life I wanted to see ghosts.
16:19
And I know that sounds weird. I wanted to see dead people.
16:21
I know. And again, I had never had a
16:24
tarot reading before I started this.
16:26
I'd never had a mediumship reading.
16:27
I did not know what I was doing when I started this.
16:29
I picked up a tarot deck and I got online and I just started
16:33
faking it and putting shit together.
16:36
But it turns out when you go back and you look at your life,
16:39
there are things you've seen. There are instances that you've
16:43
known. For example, when I was five, my
16:45
mother was pregnant and I told her, I said there's two babies
16:48
in there and this would have been 197374.
16:50
And she was like, no, there's just one.
16:52
Because ultrasounds weren't a thing back then.
16:54
Right? And well, they were, but they
16:56
were expensive and we weren't, we were didn't have the money.
16:59
So I said no, there's two one for you and one for me.
17:01
And she's like Marianna, such an imagination.
17:04
And this is where we start to get shut down, because we start
17:07
to get. You know, we start to discredit
17:11
what the child is telling us. So then my Aunt Charlotte and my
17:15
mother went in to have her babies.
17:16
My Aunt Charlotte wakes me up on the couch and she said,
17:18
Marianna, you were right, there's two babies.
17:20
They said, I know I told you there was two babies and my
17:23
mother had twins and so that was one of the.
17:27
But I also had a guardian Angel. I also thought I'd played with
17:30
fairies. Who knows if I did?
17:32
I This is something I wanted to ask you about is the concept of
17:37
the Guardian Angel, because I've always wondered about this.
17:41
I feel like I have one, but I don't.
17:43
Know I I think we're, I think we're given.
17:47
I think we're either we're either given to them or they're
17:50
given to us and I do believe that we just get one like at
17:53
birth. And I also have questioned
17:57
whether it's just our higher self.
18:01
Is it guardian Angel playing devil's advocate?
18:04
Flipping it over, like let's say that that were true.
18:09
Why then do some of us suffer so greatly and others sort of
18:14
managed to get through things? Because like when I look at my
18:16
life and everything I've been through, despite the difficult
18:20
times and the hard stuff and everything, I feel like I was
18:23
somewhat protected at these because I got through all of
18:26
that stuff. And I owe that part in due to my
18:30
own efforts, part in due to, like the people that supported
18:32
me, helped me for the years, and then also maybe this higher
18:36
being. I don't know, like I sometimes
18:37
look at certain things and I'm like, I don't know, maybe there
18:40
was something at play there. But why then does it not apply
18:44
to everyone? So I I'm actually pretty fluid
18:48
in this area because I'm not 100% sure what I believe in this
18:53
area because I don't think that any children asks to be
18:59
assaulted as a child and So what got one child through it that
19:03
didn't get another child through?
19:05
I also used to seek out religious trauma in my youth for
19:09
whatever reason. Like if I just prayed hard
19:12
enough and I would go to church and nobody was even asking me to
19:14
go to church and I would like, walk down.
19:17
It was in California. It was called Garden Farms.
19:19
And and I would walk to this little, you know, one room
19:23
schoolhouse that was a church. And yeah, I wanted to believe so
19:27
bad in God, but then I cannot. Put my I cannot wrap my mind
19:34
around a God who allows one child to die at the hands of a
19:39
parent, say, and one child not to.
19:42
And so I hesitate to believe it. And I and OK, it's like this.
19:48
A lot of people believe in soul contracts in this niche.
19:51
I do not. I think that we have blueprints.
19:54
I think we have high points. I think we have.
19:56
Yes, lessons. But you cannot tell me that I
19:58
sat in my life between lives. And signed up for some of this.
20:03
You can't tell me that. That that was my first thought.
20:06
When I heard about the whole so contracting idea, I was like,
20:09
but why? Why would you?
20:11
I mean, but then the the counter argument to that would be like,
20:14
Oh well, you accept the certain limitations, you accept the
20:16
challenges because that's just blaming yourself again.
20:20
It's just gaslighting again. At a higher level, you're
20:22
gaslighting the shit out of yourself.
20:24
Well let's hold on a SEC. Let's let's let's assume that
20:28
this SO Contracts thing is is true, right?
20:30
OK, but hold on, hold on, let me get this because I'll forget if
20:33
it's true. How would anyone sign up to be
20:36
one of these poor children who are sex trafficked?
20:39
Because some of them never even make it out.
20:41
So there's no lesson to be learned.
20:44
I mean this this is what I would have as as the counter argument
20:48
to that again because I think it goes back and forth and back and
20:50
forth and back. I don't.
20:51
I yeah. I ultimately, I don't believe in
20:53
it because it's there's so many people that are born into this
20:56
world and just suffer. And then pass away and I'm like,
21:01
what has been learned there. Literally.
21:04
Like do you know what I mean Like I and that's where it's
21:06
like I don't know why but it's same as you.
21:09
I don't know. Like because I've always just
21:11
looked at things and gone. Life is unfair.
21:14
Nothing means anything or no, but like on a on a serious don't
21:17
like, that's true. It's like I've been going there.
21:20
Yeah, and I just look at stuff like that and I'm like, how how
21:24
are you supposed to navigate this and and be a decent human
21:27
being? And do the and think you brought
21:31
it all on yourself. Right.
21:32
And how are you not supposed to be, like, constantly angry at
21:36
the world or frustrated with the world Or, you know, like, I just
21:39
try to do the small, good stuff that I can do in my life and
21:42
just try my best to put positive stuff out there.
21:45
That's what I try to do, right? But I look at it, there's
21:50
another thing as a medium that I think is very detrimental and
21:53
dangerous. I know a woman who lost her
21:58
daughter, and her daughter was only 16 or 17, right?
22:01
And so she went to see a medium before she knew that I was a
22:04
medium. And this medium said, well, you
22:07
agreed to this in your sole contract.
22:10
Oh, it is the worst time #1. Even if you believe in sole
22:14
contracts that should not come up in a mediumship reading,
22:17
because that is your personal belief and that is a bias in my
22:21
opinion and I. Just can't imagine saying that
22:24
to someone who's Charles passed away like oh it's your fault.
22:28
Literally. Like, you agreed to this, Noah
22:30
didn't. I was.
22:31
So I was so angry to hear that. And so there's a lot of toxicity
22:36
in this niche. And that's why really feel like
22:41
I'm talking myself right out of this niche.
22:43
I mean, there's just so many. There's so many odds to this,
22:47
man the weirdest shit. I'll I'll add to this just real
22:51
quick. Like I I think it's it's
22:52
refreshing and I think my, my listeners and my followers will
22:55
will really get a lot out of what you're saying.
22:57
Because it's like you look, you keep an open mind and you're
23:01
sceptical and you question things in an area that like a
23:05
lot of people just think is nonsense.
23:08
Like let's let's be real here. A lot of people will, will see
23:11
this episode, they'll listen to us and they'll be like, oh, all
23:13
this is nonsense. I only believe in science, only
23:15
believe in this, and I only believe in that, and that's
23:17
fine. You know what I mean?
23:18
Like when when we look at the fundamentals, no human being
23:22
knows one way or another what's definitive.
23:24
You know, we have what's in front of us, we have what we we
23:28
know to be true, and then we have what we think we know to be
23:30
true and everything in between, right.
23:33
It's it's hard as this is one of the reasons why I, I, or
23:36
probably the main reason why I keep myself completely open to
23:40
everything, like all religions, all concepts, everything.
23:43
Because it's like there's no definitives.
23:46
You know and and you see it you see it like I've I've met
23:48
religious people over the years who are like no it's definitely
23:51
this and I'm like I don't argue with them because I'm like you
23:54
believe what you believe but well it's that but like it's
23:59
just how can how can we be that definitive.
24:01
But I know it becomes because of conviction and belief and they
24:05
just that's them and I'm not going to try and interfere with
24:09
that but I just I don't get it. But at the same time it's like.
24:14
When you're looking at this, I think it's important to question
24:18
everything in life and never stop questioning things in life.
24:23
I agree. Like when I was at school, it
24:25
baffled me that you know people would teachers would tell you
24:28
not to question things. And like is that not the point
24:30
of life? To question everything and to
24:33
learn constantly. Like how are things just?
24:36
Oh, it won't just is this way. But why is that that way?
24:39
Why not this way? Why?
24:41
Why is it this and not this? Why did we decide decide that
24:43
it's like this like and so that was also me as a child as well.
24:47
So again, I'm Gen. X, so it was be seen, not heard,
24:50
and I was consistently asking why.
24:52
And I still do. And so even in in like I still
24:55
have a nine to five job. One reason is because I don't
24:59
want to take the fun out of what I do.
25:00
I don't want to take the fun out of psychic readings and
25:03
mediumship readings to where I have to make a certain amount of
25:06
money in a month to pay my bills.
25:08
So I go to my 9:00 to 5:00. Also, a lot of people see this
25:11
industry as a way to get rich. They take a tarot weekend class
25:15
and then suddenly they're reading and charging money.
25:18
They take a A2 week mediumship class and suddenly they're
25:21
they're reading and charging money.
25:23
This takes years of development to do it right.
25:26
Let me put it that way. And I didn't get into this to be
25:31
rich. And I'm not rich.
25:32
I I have, you know, I'm not not anywhere close to being rich or
25:36
a celebrity and that's not my goal, you know.
25:39
Well, knock on wood, I would like to be Rich Universe.
25:42
But it's not my fault. I always love that.
25:44
I always say that I'm like, oh, I don't care about money, but
25:46
like if someone gave me a million tomorrow, I wouldn't say
25:49
no, just say, Oh yeah, People didn't say money can't buy
25:52
happiness. They're not doing it right.
25:54
I'm like. Exactly.
25:55
I totally agree. So really fast, going back to
25:59
another experience that I had and that a lot of people have
26:02
that they don't even realize they had.
26:04
I was about probably 10 or 11, and I used to just scare the
26:09
living shit out of myself. And it never occurred to me that
26:12
I wasn't a big scaredy cat. It never occurred to me that it
26:15
was the other side trying to communicate with me.
26:17
And so there's this very one specific incidents where I It
26:22
was about dusk, It was in Templeton, CA.
26:24
We had this house and the doors would shut because if you open
26:28
one window and another window's open, sometimes doors shut.
26:31
And so that would always scare the hell out of me.
26:33
But there was a perfectly good explanation for it.
26:35
So some things I could explain, some things I never could.
26:39
I go down to the house from the neighbour's house.
26:41
We were going to swim. I go down there to get a bathing
26:43
suit. There's no one in the house.
26:45
It's dusky so that, you know, the the sun's kind of coming
26:49
through the windows at odd angles and I hear a door slam
26:52
upstairs and it gets my attention.
26:54
Now I know that it's just slamming because the air is
26:59
moving through the house, right? And that's that.
27:01
I'm like, OK, Marianna, obviously somebody left a window
27:05
open. It's not that big of a deal.
27:06
You don't have to freak yourself out.
27:08
And I knew that if I looked around the wall and up the
27:13
stairs, there was a man there with something in his hands.
27:17
And I saw a silhouette completely in my mind's eye of
27:21
this man at the top of the stairs as a silhouette.
27:25
And I did not look around the wall.
27:28
I ran back up the to the neighbor's house.
27:30
And my mom's like, where's your bathing suit?
27:32
And she's like, Oh my God, you scared yourself again, didn't
27:35
you? And I was like, but mom, but
27:36
mom, but mom, I don't want to hear about it, OK?
27:40
It took me until I started down this path to realize that was
27:44
actually a premonition, because I've mentioned I had a
27:49
dysfunctional childhood. It was after that that my step
27:53
dad threw my mother down the stairs.
27:57
He was drunk, she was drunk and I am laying over my mother
28:02
looking up the stairs and he is silhouetted against the bathroom
28:06
light with a shotgun in his hands.
28:08
Oh my God, it was a premonition. The other side had been trying
28:14
to talk to me for so long that I just assumed and put it in the
28:20
put it in this weird space where it must be my imagination.
28:24
It must be my imagination. Well, guess what?
28:26
You need to talk to the other side.
28:28
You need your imagination. You need your mind's eye.
28:33
And that skeptic made fun of me one time and she says, well, she
28:36
says she's seeing things. So do musicians.
28:40
So do artists. So does anyone who has the
28:43
ability to have an imagination or Daydream.
28:46
So it's not a put down, it's a compliment psych right.
28:50
But and I know that was a very heavy story but the other side
28:57
was trying to communicate with me and or I just had the ability
29:01
and a lot of people do. I'm not special a lot of people
29:04
have the ability to see things before they happen.
29:07
It's the ability to put two and two together that's hard you.
29:12
Talk about imagination. About this idea of you know,
29:17
being able to visualise these things.
29:19
I know there's people listening. I'm looking at you, Vilma, who
29:22
will be kind of thinking about this and I bet she's kicking
29:28
herself listening to this. She'll be like, oh, I wish she'd
29:31
told me. There's loads of questions.
29:33
I know. I'm sorry.
29:36
She always talks about manifestation.
29:37
She's she's firm believer in that.
29:39
I go back and forth on it. I I'm frustrated.
29:44
I I'm not a big man of. No, you don't think there's any.
29:47
I think, I think, I think hard work and opportunity and you
29:51
say, yes, I think that's manifest.
29:53
But to speak to the visualization for a second, like
29:57
so, OK, let's it's fine whether you.
30:01
Believe it. Or right.
30:02
If you believe it or you don't, I think that maybe.
30:07
When when Vilma talks about it, like I think the only part of it
30:10
that I truly there's two, there's two aspects to it that I
30:12
think are legit. I think that you, I think you do
30:16
have to kind of feel and operate in that kind of sphere that you
30:20
want to be in. Like how would I feel if I had
30:23
this kind of thing? But I think that's more to do
30:25
with just putting yourself in the right mindset, like being
30:28
positive so that you can receive.
30:29
So if an opportunity comes, you're not negative and you push
30:32
it away. You know, but then again, you
30:34
that's less maybe manifestation and more just having the right
30:37
attitude. But then the other element to
30:39
it, I think that's really important is this idea of being
30:42
able to visualize what that looks like.
30:45
So, like, sometimes I like to think about and it's more like a
30:48
dream, I guess, but like I've become a successful actor and
30:51
here's me on the premiere to whatever getting interviewed or
30:56
here's me on, you know, the Oscars or whatever, right?
30:59
And I can visualize. I can see it in my head.
31:03
I can imagine myself. I could see a picture of myself
31:07
and I, you know, perhaps that's manifestation, perhaps it's
31:10
delusion. But whatever it is it you
31:14
certainly you have to have, but that's a really good point.
31:18
Before we get too far, there is a fine line between delusional.
31:24
This is never going to happen. And I have a mental issue, sure.
31:29
And I can see myself doing that. Here's the hard part that has
31:33
been for me. I've had a hard time going from
31:37
Marianna, the potty mouth, who's been in the Army and who's been
31:42
a waitress and who's been and been out right and going to the
31:48
next level because I also have a graduate education.
31:50
I also have 30 years in the in the public affairs arena.
31:54
But it's very difficult for me to go from the Mariana who likes
31:58
to have a good time and wants to be friends with everybody, to
32:01
the Mariana who needs to focus and move up to the next level.
32:06
And so sometimes I think that manifesting or or a visualizing
32:10
gets you used to the next level before you get to the next
32:15
level, so that when you get to the next level you actually know
32:18
what to do. You know, I think it's like two
32:20
different lives though, because I always look at it like, well,
32:23
because you mentioned there like some of the careers that you've
32:25
had things that you do. I mean, what that's just the the
32:28
person plugged into the system, you know, it's it's like me like
32:34
I I very much feel that acting is is part of who I am, right?
32:37
But it's not. Me at a soul level.
32:40
I mean, maybe it speaks to the idea of of like how I convey
32:44
certain messages and stuff's true, you can make that
32:47
argument, but like, at the same time, it's also just what we do
32:50
to survive, isn't it? We have these different things,
32:52
these different jobs, these different things we do in life
32:55
to survive. And then any work that we do, I
32:59
suppose on our higher self, that's a different path
33:03
entirely. I mean they do interlink don't
33:04
get me wrong, but like at the same time it's like.
33:08
Yeah, they're two different lives, are they not?
33:10
I would agree with that. And it goes back to being
33:12
fragmented and it goes back to talking to the different parts
33:15
of yourself and then and then being cohesive and finding a
33:20
balance within. I want to be Christian the
33:22
actor. Currently, I'm Christian the
33:24
podcaster. But years ago I was Christian
33:27
the kid in high school. You know what I mean?
33:30
These are still all Christian, right?
33:33
Well, it's it's like I'll add to this as well.
33:36
Like, so I'm doing both. Like I do acting, I do
33:38
podcasting, I do all these different things.
33:40
And the best way I can describe it is, for me, I feel like I'm
33:44
plugging into something different every time I do it.
33:46
The way this feels when I do this, when I talk to someone and
33:50
I'm there, having a conversation with someone feels totally
33:52
different from acting or doing a live stream or whatever.
33:56
And as you said, it's different parts of yourself.
33:58
I feel like you're plugging into different areas.
34:00
Like, I'm sure when you do public affairs stuff right,
34:04
you're using a different part of yourself in that, you know?
34:06
Absolutely, absolutely. And then when I'm just Marianna
34:10
with a glass of wine sitting around with my girlfriends, But
34:13
that's all of us, right? So it's just, it's just figuring
34:17
out how to mold those parts together and get kind of to the
34:22
next level. I'm not big into manifesting
34:24
because I think it sets people up to just sit around and
34:27
Daydream. You have to do action you have
34:30
to do. Yeah.
34:32
All I was going to add to that is, is I think it's a mixture,
34:35
isn't it? Like you.
34:36
No action is no action. You're not going to get
34:38
anywhere. Like you can't just sit there
34:40
and dream the light. Like you have to put the work
34:42
in. You have to work.
34:45
Yeah. And I.
34:46
I think a lot of the time as well it's.
34:48
I mean what Vilma always stresses with this.
34:50
She never disagrees with what I'm saying about putting the
34:53
work in or having the right attitude.
34:54
But she always does say you have to be consistent with
34:58
manifestation and you have to never not believe.
35:02
You have to believe you already have it.
35:04
And that, for me, is the trickiest part.
35:06
You do already have it. You are already an actor.
35:10
I am already. My life isn't where I want it to
35:14
be though. What I want Right, right, right,
35:15
right, right. Different from what is to me.
35:18
To me it's like saying OK, a lot of people use the word ascension
35:22
right now. They're like, I'm ascending, I'm
35:24
a I'm on Tiktok. So some of the shit you hear
35:25
from Tiktok is it is. It is beyond the boil.
35:29
It is painful, but there's people that I'm ascending.
35:33
I'm ascending. No, you turned 50 and you quit
35:35
putting up with people's bullshit.
35:37
Women have been doing that since women have existed.
35:39
It's called getting older. That's it.
35:42
We're getting older. And when women get past a
35:45
certain age, usually over 40 to 45, and by God, by the time
35:49
they're 50, we're just not putting up with people's
35:51
bullshit anymore. It doesn't have anything to do
35:53
with spiritual or ascending. It's an age thing.
35:56
I've reached the age where your opinion I may or may not take
36:01
it. And that's where I think that a
36:04
lot of what A lot. Everybody puts a fancy new word
36:08
on shit so they can sell you something.
36:11
I want to teach you how to ascend.
36:13
You mean you want to teach me about my own maturity?
36:19
Which life coaches do that? So I'm not saying it's not
36:23
valid. I'm just saying you have to be
36:25
careful about what you're being sold.
36:27
Because there's a lot of people out here taking old ideas and
36:30
acting like they're brand new and that they made it up.
36:33
I didn't make a mediumship. Yeah, I didn't make a
36:36
mediumship. I didn't make up psychic
36:38
ability. I didn't make up animal
36:39
communication. Have I put my own unique twist
36:42
on it? Absolutely.
36:44
Did I create it? No.
36:46
No. Not even.
36:47
Not even by a long shot. And so we have to just be wary
36:51
of people who are consistently pushing stuff on us, who act
36:55
like they invented it or they act like it's new.
36:58
None of this is new. Manifesting is a new.
37:02
I have a book right here, The Power of Your Subconscious Mind,
37:06
by Joseph Murphy. The first.
37:09
The first. Let me just really fast if I
37:13
can. 1952 was the 1st edition of this 1952, It's 2023.
37:21
There is nothing new. And this is what a lot of the
37:24
people who talk about manifesting, and this is what a
37:26
lot of the people who talk about stuff, they're just reading old
37:30
books. They're just taking old
37:31
information and then presenting it like it's suddenly a mystery.
37:34
It's not a mystery. We've known these things for a
37:37
very long time. And you know, The funny thing as
37:41
well with that, which I want to add, is that I feel like we're
37:43
never really educating each other.
37:46
We're just reminding each other what we've already forgotten.
37:49
Yes. Oh my God.
37:50
The first time someone said that to me blew my mind.
37:55
It blew my mind. They were like, well, you're
37:57
just actually remembering stuff you already know.
37:59
Which, OK, so here's, here's a rabbit hole.
38:03
I was talking to this guy on TikTok who says, you know,
38:06
you're not really talking to dead people.
38:07
Right. And I was like, what?
38:09
And he goes, you're talking to the collective subconscious.
38:13
And I was like, whoa, first of all, that's deep.
38:17
And. And I'm always willing to be
38:18
wrong. I'm like, is the evidence
38:20
correct? Then does it matter if it came
38:22
from your dead person or the collective self-conscious?
38:24
It is giving you healing and closure in this moment.
38:27
So does it matter technically where it came from?
38:30
I do believe I'm talking to dead people, but I am open to the
38:35
idea that it that I'm also talking to the collective
38:38
subconscious. Why do you why do you think it
38:42
it's dead people or not? Collective sort of conscious.
38:46
You just said you're open to it, but why do you think it's it's
38:48
that and not the other. I think because some of the
38:52
memories, some of the the shared memories or the things that I
38:58
bring up from people are things that they had completely
39:02
forgotten about to the point that they had to go ask someone
39:05
else. For example, that woman that I
39:09
did a reading for her Passover son.
39:11
She did not know that his girlfriend's grandpa hung
39:15
himself just a year later to the day that her son died.
39:20
She did not know that information.
39:22
So how on earth did I know that information?
39:25
And the only way I could have gotten that information to me is
39:29
from a passed over person. But I but I am willing to think
39:36
that there's something even bigger than that at play.
39:39
I think they show us what they want us to see.
39:42
There's a lot of people going, oh, you this and this and this,
39:45
as if it's definitive. You haven't been dead yet, so
39:49
you don't know that it's definitive and neither do I.
39:52
This is what we think, This is what we feel.
39:55
This is what we understand. It doesn't make it fact.
39:59
I saw a theory the other day which again, just to add on
40:04
this, just to blow people's minds a little bit more.
40:06
I'm sure you probably heard that, this idea that life all
40:11
life. Is just the universe
40:14
experiencing itself. This idea that, like, we're all
40:18
and tying into the collective conscious consciousness thing,
40:21
this idea that we're just individualized representations
40:26
of the same thing. So I remember one time my dad
40:29
turned around to me and said like every person that you see,
40:32
that's you. I'm like what?
40:33
And I hate that. Yeah, me too.
40:35
I'm like, that's not me. I hate that guy.
40:36
You know what? Shit.
40:38
But the idea. That asshole over there?
40:40
Don't even try. I had a membership teacher from
40:43
the UK actually once that said the reason you don't like
40:46
something about someone is because it's in you as well, and
40:50
I hate that shit. I'm like, no, I can absolutely
40:53
dislike a child pedophile without thinking there's a child
40:56
pedophile in me. That's a bizarre thought
40:58
process. Or or just like if someone's
41:01
rude, You know what I mean? What if someone's just rude,
41:04
they're just really rude and you don't like them, And you just
41:08
because you don't like rudeness? Do you mean I'm not rude?
41:10
I'm very polite. I make sure of it because I
41:12
don't like rudeness. And I never understand that.
41:16
And the other one, Oh darn it just left my brain.
41:20
Oh, jealous people say. Oh, if you don't like someone,
41:23
you're jealous. No, I could just conceivably not
41:26
like them. And I've never assumed if people
41:29
don't like me, and there's plenty of them, I don't assume
41:32
they're jealous of me. Like, I just assume they don't
41:35
like my my personality and their spirit or my spirit and their
41:39
spirit. Don't get along to speak to that
41:41
though. There's this idea that like,
41:43
there are, there are just irrational hatreds or dislikes
41:45
for people for no reason. Like, I've had this before where
41:48
I've walked into a room and someone just doesn't like me for
41:50
no reason. I've never met them, never
41:52
spoken to them. They just don't like me.
41:53
And it's it, you know, it pisses me off a little bit.
41:56
But at the same time, like these days, I don't really care.
41:58
But it's just uncomfortable because you know, every time
42:00
you're going to go into this space, there's going to be that
42:02
person that just doesn't like you for no.
42:04
Reason So I have. I have an answer to that.
42:06
I did a reading the other day for this gal who thinks she's
42:09
going crazy and she is just. Completely overwhelmed all the
42:11
time by everything that she's feeling and the emotions that
42:14
she's constantly feeling. And she feels like her brain is
42:17
one thing, her consciousness is one thing, her body's one thing,
42:19
her anxiety's one thing. And she's like legitimately,
42:22
like really struggling. And so she she contacts me for a
42:26
reading. We get into this and I'm like
42:28
you are the most sensitive impact that I have probably ever
42:31
run into since I've started understanding this and including
42:36
me. I am an empath.
42:37
I can feel the people's emotions blah blah blah blah blah, but I
42:40
know how to turn it off or I'm I'm just more of a bitch.
42:46
I'm like, no, I'm not going to do that right now.
42:49
So so having said that, she goes, but I literally walked
42:53
into a waiting room the other day and she got nauseous before
42:56
this woman walked in and she goes, why why why does this
43:01
happen? And I said, Because your spirit
43:03
and her spirit. And and I I hesitate to use the
43:07
word demons, but that's what some people call your demons.
43:09
And her demons don't get along and they know.
43:12
They know that they're about to meet, because so many people put
43:16
so many different definitions on the word demon.
43:18
So I don't want. I'm just going to use spirit.
43:20
And she goes, yeah, but I felt nauseous before she even got
43:22
there. I said, but this was a doctor's
43:23
office situation. She picked up your clipboard,
43:27
read your name, bam, there's a connection immediately.
43:31
People who are that sensitive. Are already tapped into the
43:35
person that's on their way in there, and her spirit didn't
43:38
like that person, period. Some people it goes back to
43:42
don't surround yourself with assholes.
43:45
She didn't like that person's spirit and her body knew that
43:48
before that woman even entered the room and I said so.
43:51
You have to learn how to separate what you feel from
43:55
what's coming at you. Is this energy coming at you, or
43:59
do you really feel it? I'll give you another example.
44:02
If you're standing at the sink dancing and doing dishes and you
44:06
feel happy and you're singing and then all of a sudden, and I
44:09
mean nanoseconds, right, you are suddenly depressed and mad and
44:13
angry and you feel like you've just been covered in chocolate
44:15
sauce of depression. Is it yours?
44:19
The likelihood is is that it is not yours and someone has either
44:24
sent it to you inadvertently. Or you have taken on someone
44:30
else's energy, or you were feeling something from the past
44:33
that has no place in this moment right now.
44:37
And so this has happened to me so much that I had to figure out
44:40
what is mine. Because a second ago I was doing
44:44
just fine, singing to Bruno Mars, washing dishes.
44:47
And now I'm depressed and crying and sad and I had to realize
44:51
sometimes it isn't my emotion. And then I send it away.
44:56
I don't know. You don't have to go home, but
44:58
you can't stay here. The old bartender troupe, you
45:02
you don't have to go home. But it's 2:00 AM You can't stay
45:05
here. And I send energy away all the
45:07
time. And that's one of the ways that
45:10
people affect you when you don't even realize it is that they
45:13
send you bad mojo, for lack of a better term, or they tap into
45:17
you, or they're thinking bad thoughts about you and you feel
45:21
that energy. Now, scientifically, I don't
45:23
know what the word is for that. I don't really care either.
45:26
I'm not a big science fan, although I am reading about
45:29
quantum physics right now. But you feel what other people
45:35
send you. And so you have to be super
45:38
energetically disciplined. Yeah.
45:41
I mean, there's we hear a lot of instances of this, don't we, in
45:44
various forms, like the idea that you walk into a room and
45:47
you can feel other people's energy.
45:49
Sad, angry, depressed and happy. Yeah, you can feel it.
45:53
Or you know, to speak to what you just said there there's
45:57
instances like where what was it they say, like if you if you
46:02
can't sleep sometimes that means it's because you were in other
46:06
people's dreams, better or worse.
46:10
I have heard that and it does make sense to me.
46:13
I should say it does make sense to me.
46:15
Or what's the what's the other one?
46:16
Where something Oh, when? Your ears are burning.
46:20
It's because someone's talking about you.
46:22
Yeah. Yeah.
46:23
Yeah. No classic.
46:24
Now again, it is a classic and that is how old information gets
46:29
recycled. Your grandma used to say that,
46:31
oh, are your ears burning? It's because someone's talking
46:33
about you and and it's true that we have had.
46:38
Colloquialisms. I can't say that word very good,
46:41
but colloquialisms, I think colloquialism.
46:44
Yes, that get recycled and they held merit.
46:49
Was it just your grandma saying some random cliche thing or was
46:53
it actually true is that you can feel when other people are
46:58
talking about you and you can. I've had people call me and say,
47:02
were you just thinking, you're talking about me and I'm like,
47:04
Oh my God, yeah, absolutely. And I've called other people and
47:07
said the same thing. Or have you ever called someone
47:09
and they're like, I was just thinking about you?
47:12
I'm lucky my ears never burned. So no one's talking about me.
47:17
No, no, nothing to worry about. That got a couple of final
47:22
questions for you to kind of wrap things up.
47:24
I ask every guest I'm quite interested to, to hear your
47:28
thoughts on these questions. So what's the biggest mistake
47:31
that you've made that you learned a valuable life lesson
47:34
from? Not trusting myself.
47:38
I knew. I knew back before I married my
47:40
ex that I should not marry my ex and I did it anyways.
47:43
And then I knew I shouldn't keep having kids with him and I did
47:45
it anyways. So we love love, stupidity,
47:51
trauma, self esteem issues, codependency issues, thinking
47:57
that it was normal because I had been raised with narcissism.
48:00
So I thought being treated this way was actually normal when it
48:03
wasn't. Which is another reason that I I
48:07
don't believe in sold contracts. I don't believe that I I wasted
48:10
my best looking years on purpose to learn some lesson, you know?
48:17
So one of my biggest regrets is that I did not tap into my
48:20
intuition sooner than that. I did not listen to myself
48:23
sooner. And I will tell people things
48:25
and and then I will be proven to be right.
48:28
And I don't want to walk around saying I told you so, but I
48:31
realized after a certain amount of time, decades honestly, that
48:36
I'm not listening to myself. Like I said it, I journaled it,
48:42
it turned out to be right and I still am reasoning other
48:46
people's bad behaviour. I OK you said something about
48:49
apologies earlier. And The thing is, with a
48:53
narcissist, they will apologize. They just don't mean it because
48:57
they will continue to do the same thing that they've done.
49:00
And it took me years to realise that it wasn't an actual
49:05
apology, because they're still doing the same thing that they
49:08
already apologized for. What's that?
49:10
The old expression? Your words mean nothing if you
49:12
if you don't attach meaning to your words.
49:15
Meaning that you know if you say sorry, you, you know you
49:19
actually take on, you take responsibility, take
49:23
accountability and then you rectify your mistake.
49:26
That's the point of an apology if you.
49:28
Don't just Yeah. Or like narcissist.
49:31
I feel like they'll not just do what you've outlined there, but
49:33
they'll also do something where they kind of flip it.
49:37
So it's like, oh, I'm sorry that you feel that way or, you know,
49:41
and it's like. Which had me questioning myself
49:44
forever. And now we have so many books
49:47
about gaslighting and narcissism.
49:49
And yes, the word does get tossed around too much.
49:51
But unfortunately, especially in America, it is an epidemic.
49:54
It it is a literal epidemic. And maybe it always was, and we
49:57
just didn't recognize it. So there's that idea.
50:00
But for anyone out there that is consistently excusing other
50:05
people's bad behavior, you need to start.
50:07
Kind of pulling yourself up by the bootstraps and realizing
50:11
that your intuition is talking to you and it's telling you go
50:14
do something else. It's telling you that you know.
50:18
Yeah. So.
50:19
So I guess that was a long way to say.
50:21
I wish I had listened to myself earlier.
50:24
Thanks for sharing. What's the best advice you've
50:27
ever received? Oh my goodness.
50:33
I hope this doesn't sound wrong, but I don't think I've received
50:36
it yet. OK, yeah, that's an interesting.
50:41
So I think that's the first time I've had that as well.
50:43
To that there. You go first time.
50:47
Yeah. So.
50:48
So I'm open. I'm, I'm still open to the best
50:51
advice I'll ever receive. How about that?
50:53
Beautiful. Yeah, What's the biggest life
50:57
lesson you've learned so far? I think that definitely goes
51:01
back to the intuition, but it's also about not beating yourself
51:05
up. Whatever it is that you've done,
51:08
whatever it is that you've put up with, whatever it is that has
51:12
already gone on is basically over.
51:17
So you can't relive the past. You can't live in the future.
51:21
You have to live right now. Best advice I can give is to be
51:25
mindful of right now. Do you make a list about your
51:28
goals? Absolutely.
51:29
But do you live those? And that kind of goes back to
51:32
visualization. Yes.
51:33
You should visualize where you're headed.
51:35
But you can't live in that constant energy.
51:36
You have to live right now. You and I are doing a podcast
51:39
right now. My energy is with you right now.
51:42
I am very mindful of this moment, and we don't do that
51:46
enough. It's one of the reasons I do the
51:49
show, to be honest. Yeah, that's that's the weird
51:52
thing about it. Like, I've noticed it.
51:55
Like, also this. Doing this has made me a better
51:59
conversationist. Go figure, right?
52:01
But like, because you sit there and you absorb that part, you
52:05
know your phone's away. You're not touching that.
52:08
You're there with the person you're trading, going back and
52:11
forth. You know, you lose yourself.
52:13
Like the amount of times I've been sitting there with a friend
52:16
or my partner or a family member and an hour or two goes fast and
52:20
you're like, where did the time go?
52:22
But you were there, embracing each other.
52:24
Yeah, so really quick I I record every.
52:29
I record every reading I do. But when I go to events.
52:33
I can't. I I have figured out how to
52:35
voice record, but I think that I was missing the point is that
52:39
some things are meant to be experienced without recording
52:43
them. Some things are meant to be
52:45
experienced in the moment and for you and for that person
52:48
only. And some of the most amazing,
52:53
powerful and impactful readings that I've done or had, no one
52:57
else will ever see or know because they're over and they
53:00
were between that person and myself at that moment.
53:03
And they can't be recreated either because it was at that
53:06
moment, I'll say as well from a business standpoint, taking the
53:11
professional wrestling industry as an example, I see a lot of
53:13
the time they do the exactly the same thing they'll do like a
53:16
live tour of like their podcast or show or whatever, And it will
53:19
be like, you know, for the areas only and you never see any clips
53:24
or videos released from those things.
53:25
I assume they're banned from the venue.
53:28
And I think from a business perspective, that's brilliant.
53:31
You know, make it exclusive, makes it more intimate and, you
53:36
know, gives people more of a reason to go check out the live
53:39
experience versus, you know, the, you know, there's got to be
53:41
a difference. There's got to be a reason that
53:42
you're paying your money towards it.
53:44
It is one of the reasons I also teach in person on zoom.
53:48
Somebody was like you can't be in person on zoom while I'm in
53:51
person on zoom because I do think there are video and and I
53:56
will make video courses in the future and there are benefits to
53:59
video courses. But me being there, telling you
54:02
something in the moment helps you learn, in my opinion, so
54:07
much better and faster than you watching a video and then asking
54:12
me a question 2 weeks later. In a in a zoom.
54:15
And so it's one of the reasons I teach in person, if that makes
54:19
sense. Final question for you.
54:22
Do you have any upcoming projects or final thoughts that
54:24
you'd like to share with our listeners?
54:28
I do. I have if if you're a medium or
54:31
if you're an animal communicator and you want to take a workshop.
54:34
I have it December 9th. It can be anywhere.
54:35
It'll be on Zoom, and it's about messages and evidence in
54:38
mediumship. One of the things that you can
54:41
also pay attention to are the mediums or the animal
54:45
communicators who are not giving specific evidential messages.
54:50
So one of the biggest things in mediumship is that it's messages
54:54
are you're supposed to get messages, right?
54:56
That's how I learned it and that's how, and that's how I
54:58
work. Well, those messages can't be
55:02
your grandma standing behind you and she has her arm on your
55:05
shoulder and she's giving you a hug.
55:06
That's not a message. That is a vague.
55:11
Line of shit, right? Or your mother loves you?
55:15
Well, I would hope so. That's a mother's job, right?
55:18
Those aren't messages. Messages are very specific to
55:23
the person, to the moment. For example, the other day I
55:27
gave a message to someone. Of course it's going to elude me
55:31
now, but it was it. It had to do with her health and
55:34
it was something that we had not talked about during the reading,
55:37
but the person who had passed over brought it up and brought
55:40
up something very specific and then brought up something very
55:43
specific about the child in her life.
55:45
And I have these on YouTube. If anybody is interested and
55:48
they are glutton for punishment or the sound of my voice, go to
55:51
YouTube. I have loaded a ton of readings,
55:55
just language warning. I have an incredible potty
55:59
mouth. But so anyways, December 9th, I
56:03
do have a workshop coming up. It's a reasonable price.
56:06
It's about messages and evidence in mediumship.
56:09
It's a three hour, 2 hours instruction, one hour of hands
56:12
on, and then I do teach energy reading.
56:14
So I teach psychic and then we move into evidential mediumship
56:18
and then we move into animal animal communication.
56:23
And then we even touch on non verbal communication.
56:27
So that's four modalities in one class and I'm teaching one now
56:30
and I'll be teaching one again in January or February.
56:34
Just keep an eye on my website which is soul circle dot VIP
56:37
like very important people or very important pets.
56:41
Other than that, I also do teach stand alone animal communication
56:45
at a fraction. Of the cost that some of these
56:48
people are gouging you guys for, and in a fraction of the time.
56:52
I do a 12 week course and you will be talking to animals in 12
56:55
weeks period. Well, let me not set myself up
56:59
for failure. I haven't had it fail yet, but
57:03
there's always that one person, right?
57:05
But I have I have one student 12 weeks and a fraction of the cost
57:09
of what some of these people are gouging for.
57:11
And she got on my TikTok the other day and did an amazing
57:15
animal reading as a student for someone else and I I believe
57:18
that's on my or YouTube as well. So and I'm open.
57:23
So whatever. You know podcasts.
57:26
I I don't want to be a celebrity but I do want to be educational,
57:30
if that makes sense. So I I want to be like a more of
57:32
a teacher than a celebrity. It's been an absolute pleasure
57:37
having you on the show. Thank you so much for sharing
57:39
your time and and your stories and your wisdom and everything.
57:43
Really, really appreciate it. This has been amazing.
57:46
This has been the best podcast or conversation, frankly, I've
57:49
had, probably since I started incredibly open.
57:53
I love your energy. I'd love to discuss these things
57:57
without making it a competition. It's not a competition.
57:59
It's it's ideas. It's an exchange of ideas.
58:02
It's. It's it's examining what we
58:05
believe. And here's the thing and I make
58:07
my students do this. If you cannot explain or support
58:11
what you're doing, why are you doing it?
58:15
Not in a rude way, but I can explain why I'm doing
58:18
mediumship. I can explain why I believe in
58:20
mediumship. I can explain the experiences
58:23
I've had a mediumship. But that doesn't mean that other
58:27
people's experiences are not important as well.
58:29
Does that make sense? I don't want to discredit them.
58:33
By pushing myself up. So, yeah, thank you.
58:37
Thank you so much. I really, really appreciate it.
