  SPEAKER_03: Hello, and welcome to the Mystic Nerd Squad podcast.
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_03: I'm your host, Kelly Meyerson, and I'm here to have candid conversations for the curious.
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_03: Curiosity is what has led me to talk to so many of my guests, and today is no different.
• 0:58
  SPEAKER_03: I am joined by Daisy Farrell, and I'm so excited for our conversation today about connecting with the other side.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_03: And let me just tell you a little bit about Daisy.
• 1:10
  SPEAKER_03: So Daisy is a psychic medium healer and intuitive counselor.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_03: Her services provide deep soul healing and help you understand yourself at a level you never knew possible before.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_03: She customizes and caters to your specific needs to best achieve your goals.
• 1:27
  SPEAKER_03: By combining mediumship, psychic work, healing, past lives, guides shadow work and more with her own life experience.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_03: She helps you remove what no longer serves you and helps you find a deeper sense of self-love and forgiveness.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_03: I just love this about you, Daisy, because immediately what speaks to me is the healing vibes.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_03: And I know from talking with you personally that your goal is never to be like the medium who everybody is coming to for the help, but to facilitate that process of people healing within themselves and having those skills themselves.
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_03: So, first of all, welcome and thank you so much for being here.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_03: And I just want to turn it over to you to tell us a little bit about your journey and how you began to identify yourself as a medium.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_02: Sure.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_02: Well, thank you so much.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_02: It's so awesome to be here.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_02: I I really I love talking to you.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_02: So this is great.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and thank you for that intro.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_02: So yeah, so I mean, my story definitely is a little long, so I'm gonna try to condense it as best as I can, as best I can.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but basically for me, you know, it was psychic mediumship was on both sides of my family.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_02: So it was always kind of around, but no one ever really did it like professionally or like as their main job.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_02: It was more actually, I think it kind of like a nuisance or or a difficulty that people dealt with in my family like a long time ago, because back then it wasn't really as accepted now.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I'm I'm lucky in that way.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but it was around, and you know, it was something that was, you know, my family was open to it.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_02: We talked about it, I was always fascinated by it, but I never, you know, thought that I was uh a medium myself or really thought that way.
• 3:11
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, and what's what's interesting because I think there's kind of two types of mediums, and I think I've shared that with you before too, where there's mediums where, you know, you'll have uh this medium that will be seeing ghosts and stuff since they were like a child, and it's like they knew from day one that they were a medium, and that's just how it was for them.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_02: And then there's a latent medium, that's usually what they call it, and that's where somebody may have been born with this, which is what I believe for me.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but they didn't open up to their gifts until later on in life.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_02: So that's definitely like my category there.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, and and having the hindsight now that I do have I I can see a lot of things as a child that I know, you know, yes, I was the whole time, but I didn't think it was different or experienced that way.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_02: I was always like a really weird kid and an artist and very creative and had a really vivid imagination.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and that's just kind of I think what I would think I was, right?
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_02: You know, for a long time, uh, I never put two and two together, and I did have quite a few paranormal type experiences.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_02: Um, the main thing that always was true for me, uh kind of psychic-wise, but again, I didn't see it that way, was I always had really vivid, intense dreams uh my whole life.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_02: And I would always remember them in great detail.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_02: And as a kid, I had some premonition dreams um about people passing that would come true.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_02: But again, I was kind of like, yeah, that kind of freaked me out.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_02: That was kind of like a weird thing, but I didn't think it meant anything else, really, you know.
• 4:55
  SPEAKER_02: Um so for a long time that was just how it was.
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_02: And I guess around I want to say high school, uh college years, I started to deal with a whole history of drug and alcoholism that was really, really bad and like mental illness, all kinds of stuff.
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_02: And I think a big part of it too was the sensitivity that I had.
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_02: I just didn't know that's what it was.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_02: Because I was always a very sensitive person and really felt everyone around me so strongly, and I don't think I knew how to deal with it, you know.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_02: And I and I think it's obviously it's multi-complicated, there's a lot of different facets to the whole situation, but that was definitely a factor that I just wasn't aware of.
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_02: Um, that was definitely driving a big, a big part of it.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, so I went through all of that, and then around the time I want to say uh I was 22 when I got sober.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_02: And um I it wasn't until I had about two years sober that this all started to happen.
• 5:59
  SPEAKER_02: And and it makes sense to me because I really feel like I needed to go through all the stuff that I did and learn all of those things, not only to be a better medium and to be able to just better serve people and understand them, empathize with them.
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, I think it was a lot of things because if I had learned that then, I would have been useless.
• 6:20
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, I wouldn't have been able to help anybody, and it probably wouldn't have just made everything worse, right?
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_02: Because I would just be like, you know, it just wouldn't have been helpful.
• 6:27
  SPEAKER_02: So, like, I understand kind of the timing of things, and you know, I was also really kind of an atheist too for a long time.
• 6:35
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, and you know, I actually it wasn't until I came into AA that I started to connect with just the idea of a higher power, the idea of opening up to the universe, and I was never like a religious person really.
• 6:47
  SPEAKER_02: So, for me, that concept was just like the universe and nature and science was a big part of just that's what I turned to naturally when it came to needing like a higher power because that's part of that program.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_02: So, you know, through all of that, started to you know lift that fog from the drugs and alcohol and have more of a connection to something.
• 7:09
  SPEAKER_02: I didn't know what it was, but I I knew it was something that I had to be connected to.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_02: And I just started by just being really interested in crystals and uh playing with like Oracle cards, and again, it was fun, like I wasn't thinking anything of it, I just thought it was fun, and I got really into it, and then for a time, what happened was I started to I kept pulling this card that said medium ship like every day, like all the time, like it was like wow, yeah, from the same deck, and I was like, come on, I was like, Well, I don't know what this is about, and um what had happened was I was going through like a really, really difficult time in my life, and um three people died within like less than almost six months, I want to say, and it was at that time that I started to have these visitation dreams, and it was different from like because I had had like a premonition dream about one of their passings, and then but I started having these visitation dreams where they were showing up in my dreams and and clearly telling me like messages, so it was very different from something that I had experienced before in my dreams.
• 8:16
  SPEAKER_02: Um, for example, like one one of the people that had passed, like in the dream, I was um my fiance because it was his friend, and so I was him in the dream, and I was messaging him on the person that had passed on Facebook Messenger, and we were having a conversation, and he was basically like saying different things and giving messages to him, but it was like, how obvious can I make?
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_02: It was like he was trying to make it really obvious like this isn't for you, this is for Brian, you know, and this is a message, you know.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_02: So he was like trying to make it easy for me.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_02: But for a while, I was like, I don't know, that's just a weird dream.
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_02: I didn't think about it, but um stuff like that kept happening, and then I had another one and another one, so where again it would just be like Daisy, just just listen, you know, and we're just gonna tell you certain things, and then I would share it and it would be accurate, and I'd be like, This is really weird.
• 9:10
  SPEAKER_02: And at the same time, I started having like weird paranormal stuff going on in my apartment, too, like just weird electronic stuff, like lights going on and off, things disappearing, like just a lot of stuff like that.
• 9:21
  SPEAKER_02: So just something was trying to get my attention.
• 9:24
  SPEAKER_02: Something was trying to get my attention, and I was like, I don't know what's going on.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_02: And at the same time, I also got sick with a chronic illness and started to have really bad anxiety too.
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_02: Because I just started to feel just I don't know, it's just so anxious.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_02: And whenever I go to work uh or public places, like I would just feel so overwhelmed and I didn't know what was going on with me.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so at that point, I actually I finally went to a medium to just ask and be like, you know, what's going on?
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_02: And basically he confirmed everything.
• 9:54
  SPEAKER_02: He's like, Yeah, you're a medium, like that's what's going on.
• 9:57
  SPEAKER_02: And I was like, yeah, I don't really believe you, you know, because I just was a big skeptic with this, and I didn't really believe him, but then uh it kept happening.
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_02: So then I reached out to another person who was also medium, and um, I did my first course with her, and she basically led me through connecting for the first time because that was the other thing.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_02: Like I had never connected while I was awake, like I didn't know I could do that, so I was like, I this is just you know some dream stuff that I'm having, I think that's all it is.
• 10:27
  SPEAKER_02: But she I was awake and she led me through connecting, and I brought through just I was saying, I see this person, this, this, and this, and the person in the class was like, Oh, yeah, I know who that is.
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_02: And I was like, Oh wow, and I was just like shocked because I I didn't think I was like, um, and really from that point on, I just it it it's like it was always there.
• 10:50
  SPEAKER_02: I think that's the thing.
• 10:51
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, it was always there to feel that you know I was born with it, but I just needed someone to show me how to do it.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_02: But then once I did it that first time, I was like, oh, and and then I could just do it.
• 11:03
  SPEAKER_02: It was like I it just clicked something in my brain, and um, I just started to practice and and develop, and it just took off, it grew so quickly from there, and it still blows my mind to this day.
• 11:15
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, like, that was never a plan I had, that was never something that I expected to have happen.
• 11:20
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I was like, Yeah, I'm just gonna do this class, and I'll be like, Yeah, no, nothing's going on.
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_02: You just have anxiety, you know, it's fine.
• 11:27
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but obviously not like you know, the universe had another plan for me, and um, and it's amazing.
• 11:33
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, it it's it's amazing, and I'm so grateful to be able to do this work and and to be able to just share this with other people and and help people with it.
• 11:43
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and it's given a lot more meaning to everything that I've been through as well.
• 11:47
  SPEAKER_02: It's just it's come full circle, and it's all it just all makes sense too.
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_02: It all just gives it even a deeper meaning than I had before.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_02: Um so so yeah, so that's like the short, short version.
• 12:01
  SPEAKER_02: I love it.
• 12:02
  SPEAKER_02: I can go on forever, but I'll I'll I'll condense it to that.
• 12:06
  SPEAKER_03: I love it.
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_03: No, I think that's so wonderful, and I think so many people can relate to to, you know, you know, one, how you shared you in retrospect when you looked back at your life, like how it overwhelming it probably was as a kid, and how you sort of used things to to numb and to take some of that rawness away, if I can call it rawness, and what was causing you some anxiety.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_03: And you know, I mean, I r relate to to that anxiety piece being so, you know, um correlated with that uh empath kind of attendance and all of that information coming in.
• 12:53
  SPEAKER_03: So you're talking not only about information coming in from you know people around you, but in addition to that, you know, the other side trying to connect with you, seeing you as a vessel and and a means to get to people on this side.
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_03: So I think that is so fascinating.
• 13:13
  SPEAKER_03: So that is sort of your history.
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_03: So tell us a little bit about what is what is it like for you now?
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_03: What is your your practice in terms of your own connections with the other side, and then how that translates to how you're working with other people?
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so so basically, I mean, it was a long journey for me to get to where I am now because like from the beginning, like when it started, like I was saying, I had this like horrendous anxiety, and it started me so bad because I was just I was so wide open all the time, and I didn't know how to control it.
• 13:50
  SPEAKER_02: I didn't know how to do anything, and so it was just like I couldn't, I wouldn't like leave my apartment for a while, and I really thought I was like losing my mind for a long time.
• 13:59
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and that's something that I really like to help people with now because now I I don't have that problem, and I really didn't see a way out of it for a long time.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_02: Like I dealt with it for a really long time.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_02: Um, I had to quit my job.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, and that was that was a combo because of the chronic illness, but I also know that that's correlated for sure.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_02: But um, you know, I just couldn't handle like doing anything.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_02: I would leave work early, I would I wouldn't be able to be in public for long periods of time.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_02: And I hear a lot of people deal with that.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_02: A lot of people that are like empaths or that are mediums and maybe don't realize it, you know, deal with that.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_02: And I think that's the other thing that I really am very passionate about um helping people with is that there's so much fake stuff out there and so much fear, so much fear, and every and like it's all scary, and you always have to be like super, you know, you have to protect yourself everywhere you go, and you know, God forbid you don't, and all this stuff.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_02: And really try to like I love to dispel that stuff for people because it's it's not anything to be afraid of.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_02: And and that's the thing, because like there was a long time where I was going to many different people to help me, and they were all telling me different things, and I I heard some horrible stuff.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, some people would tell me like that I was gonna die if I didn't like protect myself, right?
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_02: And all this crazy stuff.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, like like really, you know, like that drives me crazy.
• 15:18
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, and just that you have to protect yourself all the time.
• 15:21
  SPEAKER_02: And I did it for a time, and I think at the time it had its purpose and it helped me, but it was more like a mental trick more than anything.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and really all it was was that it just took some time for me to better understand how everything was working with me and how spirit worked with me, and and to realize that it's a relationship because I think that's the biggest thing that I try to teach people.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_02: It's like, okay, look, like spirit, all they want is just to get their message across.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_02: That's all they care about.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_02: They just want to get their message through, but at the same time, they're gonna do whatever it takes to work with you to have that happen.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_02: So if you have certain rules, you know, or you need certain boundaries, they'll respect that because that's all they're they're just trying to work with you.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_02: So it's really, I think people don't realize that they just have to say what their boundaries are, they just have to be clear about what they what's okay with them and what isn't okay with them when it comes to connecting with spirit and and just being having a back and forth, having a relationship with them.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_02: Um, because that's really what it is.
• 16:31
  SPEAKER_02: It's a relationship, and it's not just spirit, you know, you're at the mercy of spirit just bombarding you constantly.
• 16:38
  SPEAKER_02: It can feel that way, but it it's really not like that at all.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_02: Um, it just feels that way when we when we think that way about it, and we don't have the boundaries, or maybe the no, you know, just the tools to know about that.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_03: So yeah.
• 16:54
  SPEAKER_03: It sounds like it's it's very similar.
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_03: Like if you if you have that empathic nature with with other people and other people's emotions and feelings, and that may be permeating into your own body.
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_03: And um, it's just interesting because just the other day I was talking to Morgan Lynn and she was talking about, you know, how sometimes what happens when we get bombarded with things, we sort of dissociate from our body and like all that is coming in and it's in our field and it's bouncing around, and we've kind of left, you know.
• 17:28
  SPEAKER_03: But if we can kind of stay present, and I I love this idea of boundaries also because I think that fear piece is so huge for people, like and people who may have like you know, any of the clairs, any of the you know, clairvoyance or clair audience or you know, any of those.
• 17:47
  SPEAKER_03: I think I'm kind of more of a clairsen person, like I just feel things and people, and whether it's you know, other people's emotions and feelings or you know, messages from the other side.
• 18:01
  SPEAKER_03: So this to me is just such a personally interesting conversation because I really relate to you with the idea of dreams.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_03: When you started saying in the beginning that you you were having these dreams where people were coming to visit you and they've always been vivid and they've always been very like strong and easy to remember, I completely relate to that.
• 18:23
  SPEAKER_03: As a as a kid, like there were times where you know I would have dreams like night terrors where I would be in my bed, but things would be happening around me, but I couldn't move.
• 18:35
  SPEAKER_03: Um, and you know, I often wonder if that was if that was some sort of messaging happening from outside of me, you know, looking back at it now, it's kind of hard to decipher, but I've also had people who have passed come and visit me in my dreams.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_03: So, in particular, you know, when I'm having a tough time in my life, I have a friend who passed away when I was in college, and he will come visit me in my dreams and give me a hug.
• 19:06
  SPEAKER_03: Oh yeah, and like it's not often that we have any kind of a conversation, but it's like I'm having a tough time in my life, and I'll have a dream where he'll like sometimes we're just in a parking lot and he just walks over and gives me a hug, and I just know everything's gonna be okay.
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_03: So is that like something that typically people are experiencing?
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I think I hear like two sides of that.
• 19:30
  SPEAKER_02: I think sometimes people don't really experience visitation dreams, but they'll and and if I have people like that, you know, I'll I'll encourage them to look outside when they're awake to for just different symbols and things like that, because we can get mind-blowing signs and symbols from our loved ones, which I've experienced plenty.
• 19:48
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but yeah, a lot of people experience that.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_02: And I think that's a big thing.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_02: I think one of the hardest things for people is, you know, they doubt it or they doubt if it's real, right?
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, but quite often, you know, and I love that you said that, quite often when we have a dream about a loved one that's passed, where they don't, it's very common where they won't say anything like that.
• 20:09
  SPEAKER_02: They'll just be there.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_02: And it's like they don't have to say anything, it's like they're just there, and they're just being, you know, making you aware that they're that they're there.
• 20:18
  SPEAKER_02: Um, that's very common, and I've experienced that as well, uh, quite often.
• 20:23
  SPEAKER_02: That's so that's a very common thing.
• 20:25
  SPEAKER_02: And and it also is very common for people to also have conversations sometimes with their loved ones.
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, so I always like that's a big thing that I try to help my clients with too, is like I always tell them, I, you know, I understand going to a medium, especially maybe the first time, because if you've never experienced that before, and and also because our own ego, our own mind and stuff gets in the way.
• 20:47
  SPEAKER_02: It's just it's a different dynamic when we're trying to connect to our own loved one because we just think, oh, well, how do I know that's real?
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_02: So it can be very validating for someone that's just struggling and needs that at least that initial kind of just proof, if you want to call it that, right?
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_02: To just help them understand that it's real and that their their loved ones are there.
• 21:08
  SPEAKER_02: But once that happens, I really try to encourage, you know, to teach them how to connect for to for themselves, connect to their loved ones themselves.
• 21:17
  SPEAKER_02: Because one thing I always tell my clients is that you have the strongest connection to your loved ones.
• 22:45
  SPEAKER_02: No medium will ever have a stronger connection to your loved ones than you do because they're yours, you know, they're they're not more connected to you.
• 22:54
  SPEAKER_02: And and I get very angry because there's a lot of mediums that are, you know, like scammers or whatever, and and they they kind of prey on that belief system or that feeling that they're the only way that you know you can talk to your loved ones or have a connection, which is total BS.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, it's just not true, right?
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, and it's just a way for people to keep people in kind of almost like you know, keep them there and keep them coming back to them.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_03: They're paying the money, you know.
• 23:43
  SPEAKER_03: A little bit of a connection.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_01: I mean we everywhere.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_03: Can you hear me okay?
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_03: There you are.
• 24:19
  SPEAKER_01: Hello.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_03: Somebody's interrupting the flow.
• 24:26
  SPEAKER_03: Maybe they want us to change directions in our conversation.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my gosh.
• 24:33
  SPEAKER_03: So so I love this.
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_03: So uh yeah, I'm thinking, you know, if you're if you're looking for someone who's going to help you, like the idea that somebody who is in support of you understanding how to connect and how to, you know, take on some of these skills yourself is very different than someone who is like, well, you can you can continuously come back to me.
• 24:57
  SPEAKER_03: I'm happy to connect for you all the time.
• 24:59
  SPEAKER_03: Then it becomes like the energetic exchange doesn't feel, you know, as like natural and thoughtful, right?
• 25:07
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, not at all.
• 25:08
  SPEAKER_02: And I think it's false, you know, it's false.
• 25:10
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and it's unfortunate because a lot of people just don't they don't know better, you know, and they'll do that.
• 25:15
  SPEAKER_02: And so often I'll have people that come to me and they'll be like, oh, you know, tell my dad this or whatever.
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_02: And I'm like, they can hear you.
• 25:22
  SPEAKER_02: Like, I don't I don't have to be a good thing.
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_02: He heard you.
• 25:25
  SPEAKER_02: But so many people will do that because they really, I think they really just think that they need someone to to do it for them or to connect for them.
• 25:34
  SPEAKER_02: And it's not true, you know, because that's the other thing.
• 25:37
  SPEAKER_02: Every every single person in the world, you know, I like to look at mediumship the same way as we look at, you know, musicians or artists.
• 25:45
  SPEAKER_02: Like everybody can paint if they feel like it.
• 25:48
  SPEAKER_02: Not everyone's gonna be in the met, you know, but everybody can paint if they want to.
• 25:54
  SPEAKER_02: So I like to look at that kind of skill in the same way.
• 25:57
  SPEAKER_02: You know, we all have a little bit of it.
• 25:59
  SPEAKER_02: We all have the ability to have a connection if we need to.
• 26:04
  SPEAKER_02: So I just try to, and and everybody also has the ability to get better at it, you know, to at least work on it and develop it.
• 26:10
  SPEAKER_02: I'm not saying to be professional, but at least to just comfort themselves and to connect for themselves.
• 26:16
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so that's something that I really try to help people just learn better and different techniques.
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_02: Um, a big part of it, like I was saying earlier, is the just having a conversation, being clear about, hey, you know, dad, can you show me this or give me this sign?
• 26:32
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, you know, show me this type of bird.
• 26:34
  SPEAKER_02: And the other, I think, tip around that too, is to not be so um strict about the signs that you get.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_02: Because for example, like if I say, hey, like show me a butterfly, and I get a letter in the mail with like a stamp that has a butterfly on it.
• 26:51
  SPEAKER_02: Maybe it's not a real butterfly, but it's still a butterfly.
• 26:54
  SPEAKER_02: And sometimes that's as good as it's gonna get, you know, and we kind of have to be like, oh, thank you.
• 26:59
  SPEAKER_02: You know, that's great.
• 27:00
  SPEAKER_02: Because it's gonna come in different forms, it's not always gonna be exactly what we want.
• 27:06
  SPEAKER_02: And I think sometimes people get blocked with that because they're like, nope, not unless it's this exact thing that I asked for at this time, it just doesn't really work like that all the time.
• 27:15
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and and I think part of that is also being skeptics, which I totally understand.
• 27:20
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but it it it blocks us sometimes when we're when we're so strict about the parameters in which that we we receive these signs from people too.
• 27:29
  SPEAKER_02: So I try to help people just broaden, broaden their horizon with that a little bit.
• 27:34
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 27:35
  SPEAKER_03: Well, and I I'm I'm wondering too, along those lines, you know, can sometimes the signs and symbols we see be reflective of the personality of the person who is trying to connect with us from the other side.
• 27:50
  SPEAKER_02: So you know, yeah, yeah.
• 27:53
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, there can be there can be a lot of different signs and symbols because it doesn't just have to be imagery, that's the other thing, because sometimes, because I've heard a lot of different things from friends or people close to me, you know, where they were really missing a certain loved one, and then they like meet a person that seems like so similar to them, right?
• 28:12
  SPEAKER_02: Personality-wise, and it's just very comforting because they're just like them in a lot of ways, or that they'll see someone that looks like them, something like that.
• 28:21
  SPEAKER_02: Um, or music is another really big one.
• 28:24
  SPEAKER_02: Music is such a huge one that people experience uh different things with numbers, or getting like phone calls, or weird like technology things happening.
• 28:33
  SPEAKER_02: All of those are definitely common symbols and signs, so it's just being open to it, you know.
• 28:39
  SPEAKER_02: That that's the main thing.
• 28:40
  SPEAKER_02: I just try to tell people just open your awareness because we miss a lot of this stuff.
• 28:44
  SPEAKER_02: Often we're so absorbed in here and we're just not thinking about it, and we don't even realize that it's what's going on.
• 28:51
  SPEAKER_02: Uh so it's being yeah, it's like being more open and aware.
• 28:56
  SPEAKER_02: And once you do, that's where it gets like really mind-blowing.
• 28:59
  SPEAKER_02: Because then you're like, oh my god, like there's stuff everywhere, it's everywhere, it's crazy.
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_02: Because I remember that happened to me, and I was just like, oh my god, you know, it's just like constant, it's just all over the place, but it's really comforting too for people once once they experience that.
• 29:15
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, and I'm I'm so glad you're busting some of the myths associated with mediumship, and you know, I think that fear piece is huge for people, or the idea that they can't do it, they need to find somebody.
• 29:27
  SPEAKER_03: Any other myths you can think of that people have?
• 29:30
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, yeah.
• 29:31
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, there's so many.
• 29:32
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, another one that really bothers me is like, because this comes from just the television shows, and I think it's great, like, don't get me wrong, I think it's great that mediumship is becoming more popular and it's out there more, but just the way that it's being presented, unfortunately, isn't very realistic.
• 29:48
  SPEAKER_02: Um, like, for example, those big TV shows like Long Island Medium or Tyler Henry, uh, all those big people.
• 29:55
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, I I think they're legit mediums, don't get me wrong.
• 29:58
  SPEAKER_02: But um, but the thing is, is that people mediums don't go around the supermarket and just go up to a stranger and just say, hey, like your dad here, he did this, this, and this.
• 30:08
  SPEAKER_02: Like that that would be so wildly inappropriate.
• 30:12
  SPEAKER_02: It's just crazy.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_02: Right.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_02: You know, and it's just, I mean, the people on that show, like, they've already agreed to getting a reading, like they sign something saying, like, yes, you know, Teresa Capita can can read me, that's fine, but they make it, they stage it to make it look like this person has no idea they're about to have a reading and it's like this crazy thing.
• 30:31
  SPEAKER_02: And you know, I have a big rule with that where it's just like that's just wrong.
• 30:34
  SPEAKER_02: You just don't do that.
• 30:36
  SPEAKER_02: You know, people have to give you permission to open up.
• 30:39
  SPEAKER_02: And I've had that experience where like I'm in public and I I feel so strongly like I need to say something to a person, but I just leave because that's not I what whenever that happens to me, I just tell spirit, I'm like, I I'm sorry, and I really respect and appreciate that you want to connect with your loved one, but I'm gonna trust you to make that happen in another time in a setting where they come to me, or maybe they could go to someone else.
• 31:06
  SPEAKER_02: Um not gonna break my rule and and do that because you don't know what someone's going through, you don't know if they're open to that.
• 31:13
  SPEAKER_02: It could just do a lot of harmful things, and it's just like I said, it's just not appropriate.
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so I I don't like that because it makes it just seem like and I think that also adds to the like the belief system that we're constantly just like, oh my god, you know, we can't we can't stop like getting messages and we have to spend it out like it's like uncontrollable, basically, right?
• 31:34
  SPEAKER_02: And it's not true, like we have control, and I that's the other thing like that I can't stand when when people say on TV, like I just you know I can't control what I say, and it's you do you have control.
• 31:44
  SPEAKER_02: That's that's your job.
• 31:46
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, that's what a medium.
• 31:48
  SPEAKER_02: You are translating it and delivering it in a way that is appropriate and makes sense.
• 31:53
  SPEAKER_02: Um, you know, it's it's so there's a lot there, and also that you know, mediums are always right if they're if they're like the good mediums, you know, because they edit out all of the like they literally edit everything to make it so perfect.
• 32:08
  SPEAKER_02: Right, you know, those readings are way longer than like what they show on the show.
• 32:12
  SPEAKER_03: Sure.
• 32:14
  SPEAKER_02: There's plenty of where I'm sure the person can't take it or they're not sure because it's just it's not a perfect science.
• 32:19
  SPEAKER_02: That's the other thing.
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, that'd be great, and it's great when that does happen, but it's pretty rare.
• 32:25
  SPEAKER_02: You know, I mean, I could still have like a really solid connection and a really good reading, but I'm still probably gonna get like one thing wrong, and that's normal because it's not a perfect science, and it's it's something that just isn't always perfect in that way.
• 32:38
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so those are two big ones, and I think another one also because those are those shows, but then also like the paranormal shows.
• 32:46
  SPEAKER_03: That's what I was gonna ask next that make it look scary, right?
• 32:50
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah, that's the other one that I get really mad about because that talks about ghosts are gonna kill you and they're causing like you to have these illnesses, and you know, it's that gets really complicated for sure, and um, and I think it's it's a complic complicated thing to navigate, even as for myself and to explain to people.
• 33:12
  SPEAKER_02: But the way that I look at that especially is that so much of all of that is really about where we're deciding to put our energy, you know, and and and not realizing how powerful our energy is in amplifying belief systems.
• 33:29
  SPEAKER_02: If you know, because I think what often happens is we could have a home that maybe is haunted, and again, that's a whole other thing that I can even explain, where like I don't believe, I don't believe that people when they're when when a place is haunted, it's not the person's soul trapped in a house.
• 33:46
  SPEAKER_02: That's just no, that doesn't happen.
• 33:48
  SPEAKER_02: That doesn't happen.
• 33:49
  SPEAKER_02: Like, I can't stand when people say, like, oh, someone was murdered here and they're reliving it over and over again, trapped in like this time loop.
• 33:57
  SPEAKER_02: And I like that drives me crazy.
• 33:59
  SPEAKER_02: Um, that's not true, you know.
• 34:01
  SPEAKER_02: What what I really believe hauntings are is that they're they're fragments of a person, they're not conscious, they're just frag-I mean, they can have, I think, their own consciousness, but they're not the actual person.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_02: I think a lot of that is just residual, just energy that's from what happened there.
• 34:19
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and and also I do think that sometimes people, the actual person, can pop in and do things and say hello and whatever, especially if it was a place that was important to them.
• 34:30
  SPEAKER_02: Like that's totally possible.
• 34:31
  SPEAKER_02: I just don't think they're trapped there, you know.
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_01: I don't think they're struck there.
• 34:35
  SPEAKER_02: Because often you'll hear about people saying, Oh, you know, I crossed this this person over for that.
• 34:40
  SPEAKER_02: It's like we don't know, like we don't have to do that.
• 34:43
  SPEAKER_02: And because I I believe, you know, just like with birth and death, it's like it's that you're gonna get where you need to go.
• 34:49
  SPEAKER_02: Like, we don't need to intervene, you know.
• 34:52
  SPEAKER_02: Um okay, I like that.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I mean, you know, even if there's complications in birth, like I look at okay, maybe the doctor is like the universe or God, right?
• 35:00
  SPEAKER_02: Like they'll they'll make it work out, like they'll figure it out, and they kind of intervene and and get it to work out in the end.
• 35:07
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but I don't think when when people uh cross people over and different things like that, I think that they're maybe crossing over those fragments, and that's very real and totally makes sense, um, and could deal with you know, maybe some paranormal stuff that's going on, but they're not helping the actual person cross over, like that's already happened naturally, in my opinion.
• 35:29
  SPEAKER_02: Again, there's some people that totally disagree with this, and that's totally fine.
• 35:32
  SPEAKER_02: It's just my experience and what I've I've seen.
• 35:36
  SPEAKER_02: Because that's the other thing, I've I've never experienced something bad.
• 35:40
  SPEAKER_02: Like I've never experienced something, I've experienced things where I get scared at first, but then I just ask the spirit, like, okay, well, why are you here?
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_02: What are you?
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_02: And then once they explain to me, then I'm then they're not scary anymore.
• 35:52
  SPEAKER_02: Because that's that's anything, it's just like the unknown, you know.
• 35:55
  SPEAKER_02: I think when it's easy to be like, oh my god, that looks scary.
• 35:59
  SPEAKER_02: What is that?
• 36:00
  SPEAKER_02: Because of just what we've seen on TV and things like that.
• 36:03
  SPEAKER_02: Totally, yeah, it's so often not the way it seems, and you just need to ask.
• 36:09
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so I think what can often happen is people may have some paranormal stuff going on in their home, and they automatically they're like, Oh no, you know, that's bad.
• 36:17
  SPEAKER_03: Right, right, and then it builds.
• 36:19
  SPEAKER_03: I think of like poltergeist.
• 36:21
  SPEAKER_02: Totally.
• 36:22
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and then if you think that if you think your home is poltergeist, you know, it's probably gonna turn into that.
• 36:27
  SPEAKER_02: Like it's gonna add to that energy that's already there.
• 36:31
  SPEAKER_02: And realize how much power we have over that whole situation.
• 36:35
  SPEAKER_02: So I really feel that that's a big part of that.
• 36:37
  SPEAKER_02: But unfortunately, paranormal television is so popular and it's it's very hard to get through to some people with that.
• 36:43
  SPEAKER_02: Um, unfortunately.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 36:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I see, I can totally see that.
• 36:49
  SPEAKER_03: And so, so let's say somebody is kind of feeling like they're experiencing a little bit of that.
• 36:55
  SPEAKER_03: So, so what do they do when they're experiencing that?
• 36:58
  SPEAKER_03: So, either, I mean, I'm thinking of it in two parts, like how do they how do they kind of cleanse and clear the space if that's something that's important, or um how do they sort of shift that perspective from being in a in a state of fear and anxiety about it to being feeling empowered and and strong in their own um sense?
• 37:20
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so I think there's a lot of things you can do.
• 37:22
  SPEAKER_02: Because I think this is another thing.
• 37:24
  SPEAKER_02: I think that's another big kind of scam thing that a lot of unfortunately like mediums will do is like, you know, pay me a thousand dollars and I'll I'll clear your house for you.
• 37:34
  SPEAKER_02: When you really don't need a medium to do it for you, like it's your home.
• 37:37
  SPEAKER_02: Once again, like that's like the thing.
• 37:39
  SPEAKER_02: You're like you have the strongest connection here, it's your home, not their home.
• 37:45
  SPEAKER_02: So that doesn't even make sense to me, you know.
• 37:47
  SPEAKER_02: I get like wanting the help, and I think that's the thing.
• 37:49
  SPEAKER_02: People go in victim mode or they're they're scared, you know, and they think that that's the solution.
• 37:54
  SPEAKER_02: Uh, and this person will swoop in, you know, and that's like the energy that they bring to it.
• 37:59
  SPEAKER_02: Um, but it's it's not necessary, you know.
• 38:01
  SPEAKER_02: It's really just finding that empowerment in yourself and remembering that it's your home.
• 38:07
  SPEAKER_02: And I think the number one thing is is just talking to whatever's going on, like to the being or whatever you think is there, trying to connect with him, be like, who are you?
• 38:16
  SPEAKER_02: You know, what do you want?
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_02: And just see what kind of response you get.
• 38:21
  SPEAKER_02: If that's too scary for you, you can be very clear and be just like, hey, like, leave, you know, please just go.
• 38:28
  SPEAKER_02: And you can cleanse your space, you know, you could use like Palo Santo or different uh cleansing things like that.
• 38:34
  SPEAKER_02: You can use sound, even uh like a singing bowl, different kinds of sound.
• 38:40
  SPEAKER_02: But a big part of it is the authority that you bring and the energy that you bring towards your home, um, and the being that you're sharing it with, if that's what you feel.
• 38:51
  SPEAKER_02: So I think it's really it's finding empowerment in yourself and also trying to kind of push through the fear and be like, what is this?
• 39:00
  SPEAKER_02: Who are you?
• 39:01
  SPEAKER_02: Because, like, that's what I was saying before, you know, things are scary until you actually know what it is.
• 39:07
  SPEAKER_02: So if you figure out what it is, I think you know, even like sitting down in meditation in your home and being like, Okay, can you like connect with me and just share with me who you are and maybe like why you're trying to connect or why you're trying to get my attention, and it could just be like the person that used to live there, and they're like, I don't like the wallpaper you're putting up, or like, you know, something like that, you know, and it's like not a big deal.
• 39:30
  SPEAKER_02: Oh my gosh, that's so funny.
• 39:32
  SPEAKER_02: You know, they're not trying to possess you, like it's like not a big deal.
• 39:35
  SPEAKER_02: So that's the thing, or it could even be like your own loved one, you know.
• 39:38
  SPEAKER_02: I think that's the other thing.
• 39:39
  SPEAKER_02: It's like it doesn't have to be scary, but that's just what we like go to.
• 39:43
  SPEAKER_02: So that's the main piece of advice with that, is just taking charge of that situation as best you can.
• 39:49
  SPEAKER_02: And if you're afraid to do it on your own, like do it with a friend, do it with your family, or you know, as a group, just so you feel like more supported.
• 39:57
  SPEAKER_02: Um, and you can certainly consult, I would say, like a trusted medium to try to connect to whoever it is.
• 40:03
  SPEAKER_02: If you feel like you're like not getting anything, um, you can certainly have a medium connect for you and just help bring through what's going on, but just make sure it's a person that's not, you know, somebody that's trying to have ulterior motives here, somebody that's just your, you know, good intentioned medium, then totally helpful for sure to just give you more clarity on what's going on.
• 40:26
  SPEAKER_03: I love that.
• 40:27
  SPEAKER_03: I love that.
• 40:28
  SPEAKER_03: So I want to just shift a little bit.
• 40:30
  SPEAKER_03: I want to give you some time.
• 40:32
  SPEAKER_03: I know you have so many amazing things happening in your world, and I want to give you some time to talk about some of them and and help people know the best ways to connect with you.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_02: Sure.
• 40:41
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 40:41
  SPEAKER_02: So yeah, so the main thing I have right now, which is starting this month, um, I have a membership that I just started called the Ascension Gateway.
• 40:49
  SPEAKER_02: And I'm really excited about it because it's basically for anybody that's working on developing their psychic abilities, and we're kind of just doing an exploration of anything and everything, because that's the thing that I am really passionate about, is not just mediumship.
• 41:04
  SPEAKER_02: Like I love doing and exploring everything I can in the whole mystical kind of world.
• 41:10
  SPEAKER_02: So we're going to be doing all types of psychic exercises, working on strengthening our intuition and challenging ourselves.
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_02: There is some mediumship there, but not just mediumship.
• 41:21
  SPEAKER_02: Um, there's also connect with our guides, past lives, like just anything and everything you can think of.
• 41:26
  SPEAKER_02: And that's all in a private Facebook group.
• 41:29
  SPEAKER_02: And we have um one meeting a month, and then we also have a new moon ritual and meditation together, and also another live training that I do in the group too.
• 41:39
  SPEAKER_02: So it's really fun, and I just love being able to teach people.
• 41:42
  SPEAKER_02: That's one of my things that I just love doing because I love helping people get through the anxiety, get getting through the fear, getting through just not knowing like what's going on, you know, and and being able to have more clarity on their abilities and being able to use it in a way that that helps and enhances and enriches their life and uh gives them the ability to do what they want to do with it.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_02: Um, so that's really fun.
• 42:06
  SPEAKER_02: I'm really excited about that.
• 42:07
  SPEAKER_02: And I can I can even give the link in like the comments as well.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_03: Perfect, yeah.
• 42:12
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, info.
• 42:14
  SPEAKER_02: And then in May, I also have a retreat that I'm doing, Lormazada, and that's gonna be amazing.
• 42:21
  SPEAKER_02: We only have three spots left, and um it's Christopher Reeves' old home in the Berkshires, it's gorgeous, and it's just gonna be this incredible four-day deep healing retreat where we're all just gonna be really connecting with each other, and it's gonna be so nice, just after I think the past two years that we've been dealing with.
• 42:39
  SPEAKER_02: Oh man, it's gonna be so nice to just be in this beautiful place where like high up in the mountains, and it's just like the air is like so clutch, like clean and fresh and beautiful, and it has such a zen, just very peaceful healing energy there, and um, and we're gonna be doing all kinds of work, past life healings, all all types of healings, uh, stuff with the Akashic Records.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_02: People can also get massages there.
• 43:05
  SPEAKER_02: We're gonna have lots of yummy food.
• 43:07
  SPEAKER_02: It's just gonna be really, really nice and really lovely to connect with everyone.
• 43:11

• 43:20
  SPEAKER_02: It's just a nice reset, an ability to just kind of release all the stuff that people have just been dealing with.
• 43:27
  SPEAKER_02: Because I think a big thing, especially in the past two years, has been like, I know it, this has been true for me, is and and I'm kind of grateful for it too, is just where throughout COVID and all this stuff, I've been forced to kind of face maybe more deeper stuff that needs to be healed in a way that maybe I did I wouldn't have had the opportunity to otherwise.
• 43:48
  SPEAKER_02: So, in that way, I'm grateful for it.
• 43:50
  SPEAKER_02: So I think this is like a perfect opportunity to be able to take all of that stuff, those insights that we've been given and those difficulties, and being able to kind of use them and heal them and empower ourselves and kind of just refresh everything.
