Rerun: We Are Still Not Okay

This week, we're revisiting an episode from 2022.  This topic still resonates with the high sensitivity and edginess we're all dealing with between the heat of the summer, travel delays, Covid on the rise, and politically charged conventions. Throw in supercharged astrological shifts, such asMars, the planet of action or war, is next to (conjunct) Uranus - the planet of sudden change, and both are working with (trining) Pluto, the planet that digs up dirt you don't want to deal...so you're going to have to deal with uncomfortable stuff. You gotta stay centered.  And one more cosmic kicker: Mercury slows down this week, putting us in its Shadow phase before it goes full-on retrograde on August 4-27. Back up your devices, avoid new electronics purchases, triple-check travel plans and contracts, and confirm appointments. Slow down your thoughts and speech to reflect, review, and renew yourself from the inside out.  Along those lines - you can enjoy this review from 2022. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You'll hear about the events that led her to read French Oracle Cards for a Brit and how she became an unexpected spiritual advisor between courses while out to dinner.

Betty and Barney Hill

The best road trips are full of unexpected adventures and memories; sometimes, those moments change your life forever.  On Sept 19th, 1961, Barney and Betty Hill went on a drive that would become one of the first known incidents of an alien abduction. Through conversation, dream analysis, and hypnosis, Barney and Betty pieced together their experience, which eventually became a book, The Interrupted Journey, detailing their claims. Today's episode centers on this historical event and is part one of our two-part series, in which we dive deeper (or should we say, beam up higher) into what we currently know about aliens and those who have traveled alongside them.  Because Earth School is hard, and sometimes boring, without a little extraterrestrial meddling...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

NDE Storytime

Near Death Experiences, or NDE for short, are a consistent topic of fascination for our listeners (and us too!). When you've had a NDE, it can be difficult to process, let alone speak about. But that's what we do today as we are blessed with the story of not one, but the TWO NDE's Debra Prum wrote an article about. By sharing her story, Debra allows us to talk about the brevity and beauty of Earth School, the messages that can be found through having a NDE, how death is not 'the end', and what it means to "no longer be afraid."

Chatty Kitty?

What do you get when you mix color-changing sparkles, a ringing in your ears, a talking cat, and a suspicious-looking aardvark? Highly activated energy fields, that's what! After a medical procedure tuned our listener into frequencies with a whole new vibe, she wrote in to ask the Other Side Guides: What the heck is going on?  Today's episode demonstrates how Spirit works in wondrous ways to support healing, grab your attention, and protect you.

Running Interference?

Can you, or should you, interfere with someone's karma? When you're witnessing or have knowledge of information you feel someone should be privy to, should you speak up, or not?  Inspired by listener Jessie Cat's inquiry, would spirit prefer we stand for what is right? But, of course, what's right or wrong is subjective. Ego, status, and the urge to be 'in the know' can pull us to places we should be hesitant to go. Join us as Julie opens up about a personal experience that beautifully illustrates this dilemma. We also delve into the crucial factors of permission and confidence when it comes to navigating the delicate balance between helping and hindering.  Because Earth School is hard, so don't be a Gladys Kravitz mmm'kay.... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In-Law Laws

 We talk a lot about family of birth and family of choice, and one thing they both have in common is soul contracts made on the other side. But what about in-laws? Could you possibly have selected them, too? Extended family can bring many blessings and, often, challenges. How can you manage yourself and others when family dynamics are upsetting? Today, we'll discuss how to set intentions that foster positive engagement, ways (and why) to avoid victimhood, when to let the emotions around a situation go, what it feels like to meet a sister from another mister, and how to support your spouse / beloved best as they navigate complicated familial relationships. Because Earth School is hard, without the elegant impact you can have during the difficult times of your Earth School journey. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ronan's Reading

Today, you get front-row seats as our guest Ronan receives his first Reading. Astrology takes center stage as actor Ronan learns why he does the things he does, where his heart, intellect, and creativity are drawn to, and how he can flow with his water-based chart when he feels too pulled to dive under.

Portals…in or out?

A Spirit Portal is a cosmic doorway or energetic gate linking one space or realm to another. Have you ever wondered: 🍥 Why do portals form?  🍥 Are there ways we can initiate forming them?  🍥 How can you close a portal? 🍥 Are there ways portals can assist us in times of need?  A portal can be natural, created, or conjured (⬅️ don't do that).

Re-reincarnation

How much choice do we have when it comes to Reincarnation? Do we choose our gender, race, challenges, and time period of rebirth (or as Julie likes to call it, do we choose our “birthday suit”)? Launched into conversation by one of our listeners questions, today we dive deeper into Reincarnation—the who, what, when, where and why of it all. Much like the Wheel of Fortune card in Tarot, getting “back on the wheel” of life is a process full of duality, one you’ll discern before re-entering this lovely realm known as Earth School. If you’ve ever wondered why me, why here, and why now… (and who hasn’t?), this episode will give answers and bring comfort. Because Earth School is hard, and in the words of rock band Journey, ‘the wheel in the sky keeps on turning…’ How will you show up in the next great big tomorrow?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Force of Nature

Do you have a favorite tree, animal, or place of solitude in nature? That's because Nature heals and inspires, and Spirit loves to commune with you in this most organic way. Inspired by Julie's recent trip to White Sands National Park, today we discuss the biggest Spirit we have on the planet: Nature.  Nature's magic is always available to you. Whether it's through gardening, hiking, or traveling to familiar or new outdoor spaces, every single one of us exchanges energy with the natural world in both small and big ways. Today, we ask you to contemplate: 🌲how you engage with the natural world🏖️what your natural anchors and guides may be☀️how you will claim renewal through nature's guidance Because Earth School is hard but oh so beautiful.

The Reincarnationist

What is a reincarnationist? And what does the collective soul of our animal kingdom have to do with it? Inspired by each of their news feeds, Julie and Brenda come together today and talk all things reincarnation. From deja-vu to ‘downloads’, life here on this planet is all practice for the next go-around. So, as the birds dance in sync and the elk run in formation, you, too, are in tune with all that’s been and all that will be.

Loeb believes meteors found on the ocean floor are probes sent here by extraterrestrial beings. Do you?Throughout history and all around the globe, stories and legends of aliens enchant some and disturb others.

Insider’s Insight #28: For Cop Suey

Pop Quiz: If Earth ceases to exist, where will the reincarnated souls go? If the same Tarot card keeps appearing in your readings repeatedly, what does that mean? Bonus ?: Do you need a PSA about amateur exorcisms? (yes, you do... and we're here to give one...) No, these are not the midnight thoughts of an existentialist. They are the questions submitted by our number one fan Cop Suey, who is forever on the quest to figure this whole Earth School thing out. Citing both Biblical script and tapping into theories of multiple frequencies and dimensions, we answer her questions in order to expand the lens of consciousness that we all seek. We discuss healing through grief, what it means to hold space for the unknown, the importance of sadness, community, and release, and why tik-tok gurus can not be recommended for cleaning anything out of your house. Infinite possibilities that are naked to the human eye hold the secrets and line the pathway on your Earth School quest.

How’s your 2024?

When you wake up every morning, you get to decide who you want to be. That's why the idea of setting New Year's Resolutions can actually limit your potential for growth in a new year. Reflection and goal setting just once a year? You're so much more than that! You're an ever-evolving human navigating earth school full of passion, purpose, mystery, and a mission. This limitless expansion is something to contemplate as often as you feel the call, not just once a year. What if you took inventory and decided on a theme for the year instead? One that allows for fluidity and compassion as life ebbs and flows?Join us today as we discuss how to make lasting change and how that journey begins within. From frequent meditative check-ins to assessing how you'll know when a goal becomes second nature, we've got you covered as you contemplate who you are and why you do what you do. We'll also discuss the Numerology of 2024 and teach you how to identify your personal number for the year. Resources, stability, and reputation abound.

As the planet of death and rebirth, Pluto desires to get to the truth and essence of all things. So, what would be real for you if you lived and moved through the world in an absolutely authentic way?We'll reflect back to 2008 and follow the energy of Pluto as it weaved and dipped its way from Capricorn to its new Aquarian home. Whether you think of it as a planet or super asteroid, one thing is clear: the more you work with the Plutonian energy by digging deep, the more centered you'll be. Because Earth School is hard, so you might as well play with Pluto, and the Other Side.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Work for your work: Creativity

The creative process is not linear; the ideas that flow in and through you are unconfined, coming straight from instinct and the Other Side. The question is: What do you do with them when they arrive? As difficult as it can be, the answer is to trust yourself and the process. Mentors, muses, and of course your Spirit Guides are all here to assist you when you navigate the creative and innovative path. There is a delicate dance between creativity and faith, and it's a dance you can only learn when you willingly step on the dance floor. Today we discuss the myriad of ways creativity and innovation take form. You'll see how taking the leap of faith is The Fool card in action and learn how to trust it.

It was a time of multiple leadership changes, where Julie had to accept that vulnerability is the key to all problematic situations. Sharing advice that applies to each of us today just as it did with Julie many moons ago, you'll learn timeless tools to guide you through times of change and conflict.

Bloodlines or Soul-lines?

Have you ever wondered if your daughter was once your mother? Or if your grandfather reincarnated into your son? Sometimes, when connections feel even thicker than blood, we must ask: Is reincarnating into the same bloodline from a past life possible?And that's precisely what one of our listeners was pondering. Inspired by her question, today we dive into the difference between soul lines, blood lines, and how, yes... they can most definitely merge. Your family tree goes beyond names and dates. Its branches hold karma, purpose, and possibilities only the Other Side can see. Brenda discusses how reincarnated familial souls appear in her readings and how many already had a 'feeling' this was happening (hello, Other Side whispers!); for others, it takes an extra level of observation and sensory awareness to put together the puzzle of past-life truth, as exhibited by Cathy Boyd's book, The Boy Who Knew Too Much—a fascinating read of a toddler who reincarnated as Lou Gehring.Like Russian Nesting dolls from The Great Beyond, souls are layered and stacked in order to carry out a lesson or purpose left undone. So join us today as we dissect the DNA of reincarnation. Because Earth School is hard without the strands that bind us all together.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Soul Multiplier

Welcome to our first episode of the New Year! Today we kick off 2024 with a series of existential questions certain to make your mind spin. ❓ What's the difference between infinite beings and old souls? 💫 Does a soul have a beginning? 🍷 Does it hover and chill til it's ready to re-emerge like a fine wine or perfect cheese? Which of course leads one to wonder... IS there a beginning and an end? ♾️ The exploration of these great big questions leads to a conversation about the soul's journey, the myth of 'time', and the reality of a multiverse. Soul expansion and expression is our task here on Earth School, where the objective is to learn and channel our Divine Self. Put THAT on your New Year's Resolution list 😉 Because Earth School is hard, but your soul is limitless when you learn to follow its lead, guided and fully supported by the Other Side. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BEST OF 2023: I saw the sun signs

As the new year approaches, we're bringing you one of our favorite episodes from 2023: Sun Signs—or as Brenda Rose likes to call them, "the gateway drug of astrology"—are the most popular and well-known astrological placement in one's birth chart. Your Sun Sign helps you better understand your gifts, blindspots, challenges, and opportunities during this lifetime. Today, Brenda Rose breaks down the Sun Signs into their elements—fire, water, earth, and air, bringing a fresh outlook to each sign from ignition (Aries) to landing (Capricorn). You'll discover why this knowledge is beneficial: increasing self-awareness, setting you up for success, and identifying your place and purpose in this cosmic wheel. By understanding the Sun signs—their motivations and mantras—you'll gain the ability to view the world with each zodiac sign's perspective, bringing connections and clarity.Because Earth School is hard without the willingness to understand ourselves and each other better. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Sugar Monster

How's your relationship with sugar? After a listener wrote in to describe her sugar craving as an addiction, Julie and Brenda decided it was a good idea to chew on this subject a bit longer...Sugar is everywhere, and it is quite addictive. Today, we discuss what happens to the brain when you eat it, how it can feel when you decide to limit it or quit, and ways you can interrupt your eating patterns to be present with what your body actually craves.Attempting to halt your sugar rush (or any form of over-consumption) is an opportunity to complete an Earth School lesson, which keeps it from lingering into the next life and beyond. So tune in today to learn how to plan, prepare, and take responsibility for your habits and lifestyle goals.Because Earth School is hard, and temptation is everywhere, but empowering choices and greater self-awareness are attainable, courtesy of the Other Side. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we'll discuss how you can stay sane and set intentions to keep your frequency on point.  You already know your life is so much bigger than one evening with family or one dinner that spoils your appetite before it even begins. But this can be difficult to remember when your nervous system is on the verge. So join our conversation and learn how to set yourself up for spiritual success this holiday season. Let's put love into action, give without expectations, manage energy fields, and slay the holidays together.  Because Earth School is hard if you don't weave in giggles and Other Side lightness whenever you can.  And PS: Holiday words of advice from your Elf: avoid saying "pass the taters, I'm gay..."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Season of Death

After noticing a pattern of people close to her jumping the planet during the winter months, our Elf Julie asks: Anyone else going through this Season of Death? Winter is a time of stillness, depth, and breakups. So if you stop and consider that Scorpio, which carries the energy of Transformation, kicks off the season, it makes sense that more energy than usual chooses to transmute during this time. Mirroring Julie's observation, a listener writes in, asking why she's recently experienced a season of multiple loved ones jumping. When we stop and tune in to the natural world and the harmony of it all, even when events bring us sadness, their symbolism resonates. Today, we discuss what we can learn from those who pass and when they pass, plus how to handle our emotions during the different seasons of our life... because Earth School is hard without the Other Side's divine calendar.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Up In Smoke: Lindsey’s Episode

Today's episode comes to us from our longtime listener Lindsey, who wrote in to ask: Is the use of sage and palo santo for smudging considered cultural appropriation? For many, smudging is an essential part of their spiritual and wellness practice. As we continue to evolve and educate ourselves, we naturally want to ensure the practices we enjoy are ethically and morally appropriate. The use of smoke to cleanse and clear has roots in many cultures and religions around the globe. Due to the high-frequency sage and palo santo carry, how you procure your smudging materials and your intentions while using them are the most mindful ways to honor and respect smudging's deeply rooted and sacred origins. Today, we clear the smoke around smudging, share resources to ensure you purchase your cleansing tools properly, and dive into the emotional and mystical components of smoke and ritual. Because it's all about energy... and Earth School is hard without some deep cleaning from the Other Side.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Wyatt's Mom

Trigger Warning: today's podcast contains sensitive subject matter: child mortality. After her infant son jumped the planet, listener Hailey writes in to ask: Is an untimely death always planned as part of someone's soul contract? Children bring such gentleness and innocence to our world, and we innately want to protect them from harm or suffering. In a world where children often die way too soon, we as individuals and as a collective feel a form of unimaginable grief that is nearly impossible to define or understand. We ask the hardest of questions: Why them? Why now? What is the purpose and meaning behind this form of senseless cruelty and pain? So often, the body may be young, but the soul is old and wise. So many past lives are bundled into a tiny human; many who are born with a big mission attached to a short lifespan. Does this justify their passing? Absolutely not. Yet, awareness of the brevity of life and of our emotions is critical. The love and purpose children bring to our world are the very things we need to keep a hold of when we deeply grieve senseless tragedies. Because Earth School is hard, and sometimes the world doesn't make sense. That's when the Other Side can bring comfort to our weary hearts and minds. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And, surprise, surprise... they talk about ghosts...  Because what you see IS what you get when it comes to your Other Side podcast hosts!

This playful back and forth will give you chills and thrills as the energy bounces from the ether to the camera lens and into the palm of your hand. So in a world where a picture is worth a thousand words and seeing is believing, it's time to "Say Cheese!" ... because Earth School is hard, but modern technology has made capturing the vibe from the Other Side easier than ever before.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Intensity vs Sanity

Many of us are crispy on the edges sometimes, but for an Empath, the feeling of being fried can be status quo. But it doesn't have to be that way.  So, when an environment gets really intense—leaving you feeling anxious, amped, exhausted, or flat-out frazzled—how can you make strategic choices in the name of self-care? Instead of matching the energy of a space or feeling overwhelmed 24/7, it is possible to find positive ways to emotionally ground and release, no matter where you are or what you're taking in. Today, we'll teach you how.  From lunar eclipses to global strife and family politics, Earth School is hard(!) without the ability to honor your Other Side connection to all that is while still protecting your sacred space and emotional well-being. So join us today for some comfort in the chaos.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Happiness is…Embodiment

What if your physical body is the challenge to transcend to become a spiritual person? What if it is, through this human body, you channel Spirit, experience ecstatic energy, and elevate your vibe without limit? Heavy questions, right? Of course, they're heavy when you consider your human body is what tethers you to this Earth, bearing the weight of your thoughts, emotions, experiences, and existential yearnings.Some say the human body hinders the spiritual experience, which can be if you don't treat it right. We all know that feeling you get when you connect to Spirit. We all also know the crash that can occur after. Today, we look at how you can honor your physical form and use it as a tool toward more profound enlightenment. We'll explain why we all must have the contrast of the physical and the etheric, the head and the heart, to find our footing on the pathway to true embodiment. We'll take it back to the basics of human needs and their spiritual importance, how to experience the sacred in the mundane, the healing effects of physical touch, and how movement and consumption (in many forms) enhance or deplete your spiritual ability.Because Earth School is hard, and life can be one big out-of-body experience when you tune in for a tune-up with the Other Side.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Weary But Intrigued

Have you ever been afraid of the Other Side? Nervous around words like crystals, healing, and spirituality? Were you raised to think all things metaphysical were blasphemous or scary? Or simply didn't work? If so, you will find today's episode interesting, and hopefully, comforting. Inspired by an Other Side Guides listener (you guys are the best!), today we explore what gives spirituality a bad rap, how skepticism is taught, and why young children often gravitate toward healing modalities long before they are told not to. Why is it that fear of the unknown is natural for many, while others are intrigued?  We will also discuss ways to cleanse, clear, and meditate with your crystals... just as you can cleanse, clear, and meditate on your religious (or lack thereof) upbringing.

Departures & Arrivals

Have you ever wondered: 😴 Why do some people pass away peacefully in their sleep while others struggle to find their way through? 🐦 If we flutter in and out our bodies just before and during transition? 💃 Does our earth-bound personality shape the way in which we jump the planet?  Being aware that a loved one is near their time of passing brings a multitude of emotions to those here observing the process. And it's both humbling and a relief to know that our needs and preferences cannot control how or when a loved one jumps. The strings that bind our souls to Earth untangle on their own accord.  But there are things you can do to clear the path so your loved one transitions as peacefully as possible. From providing energetic space and witnessing signs of a test-flight, today we explore these observations and thoughtful questions sent to us by our listener Cathy.  Because Earth School is hard, and the process of coming or going can be just as predictable as an airport during the holidays...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Insider Insights has a very special theme: Pets! Whether you affectionately call them your fur babies or critter companions, pets inhabit a special place in your heart and home. And when they pass over the rainbow bridge, you're often left wondering if their spirit still hears your call. Have you ever wondered: 🐕 how to look out for 'signs' from your beloved animal, both after transition and during times of illness or struggle?  🐦 does the frequency of your home attract certain animals, both living and dead?  😿 if there's a grief-support community designed for those who have lost their furry friend?  The brevity of a pet's lifespan is one of the hardest parts of human-animal connections.

WTF is Happiness: The Mental Sphere

We continue our dive into the pursuit of Happiness, and today's episode comes with a twist, courtesy of this question submitted by a listener:  ❓What is the spiritual reason behind unwanted or intrusive thoughts? Unwanted or intrusive thoughts can occur at any time—it's like mentally swimming in the sea of a beautiful moment and then visualizing a shark attack; it's an imagined scene that turns the freeway of love into the highway to hell. It's feeling proud of something you've done and then hearing a voice telling you otherwise. Why do we do this? Where do these thoughts come from? And, most importantly, how can we stop them? Today, you'll learn a prayer, affirmation, and tapping technique to use when your mind turns against you. You'll understand the power of music to help regulate and process your emotions. You'll feel unashamed by your own intrusive thoughts, realizing we all have them. (yes, even Brenda...)

Happiness: Friends and Family

When it comes to relationships, happiness benefits your spirit more than money or status ever could. The bonding that shared experiences bring, especially when sweet surprises spring from the ordinary, is an essential reminder that how you feel matters, and what you feel and when you feel it is an indicator of your happiness and authenticity. All life is a process of give and take, yin and yang. Equal energy exchanges create balance, trust, and infinite expansion of intimacy. On the flip side, relationships become complex and draining when they are in discord. It's the difference between feeling seen or feeling misunderstood. Today, we discuss the relationships that are crucial to our well-being. We'll share valuable conversation starters and questions to explore with those you live and love with. Self-assessment is part of the process as well, so be prepared to look within. We'll get vulnerable, silly, curious, and real.

From politics to religion, to race, gender, and sexuality, take a view through Julie's lens as she shares her personal evolution and spiritual journey on all things 'us-vs-them" and asks us to contemplate what drives us to claim dominion over another.

Changing the Picture

You can change the picture in an instant to reframe any situation going on in your life. Whether it's the way you view yourself, another, or a situation, forward movement occurs when you learn to zoom in or out accordingly. This adjustment requires vulnerability and trust in something bigger than you. That's what we're here to talk about today.  Fear, ego, and survival mode build walls, and before you know it you're boxed in, hindering emotional mobility and growth. Reframing, aka changing the picture, breaks down these barriers, building communities where only division once lived. Moments become milestones on your path to freedom. Contrast fades and brightness ensues.  Because Earth School is hard, without the ability to find the love, lead with compassion, and change the picture so it looks and feels more in-tune with the Other Side. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Season of Aliens

Aliens. They're everywhere these days. Alien summer has officially arrived from conspiracies to certainty, skeptics to scientists...Or... has it been here for longer than we think? Today's episode is inspired by a recent article in Popular Mechanics (May 2023), where Garry Nolan, Professor of Pathology School of Medicine at Stanford University, says, without a doubt, Aliens have 100% already arrived. What makes this declaration so unusual is never before has a member of academia publicly acknowledged Alien existence. It turns out, few believe the conspiracies, even fewer believe the government... but a man of Stanford? He has space cred. Today we'll discuss Dr. Nolans' research and beliefs.

Insider's Insights #23: Meditation Hookup

You've heard Julie and Brenda discuss the importance of meditation in their daily lives on numerous occasions. You've also, most likely, heard many scientific studies touting the health benefits a meditation practice can bring, both cognitively and emotionally. But... this does not mean meditation comes easy to you or that you even know what it means to achieve a meditative state. So today, your Other Side Guides share their meditation tips and tricks to get you started on your own practice or enhance the one you already have going. The truth is you naturally weave in and out of a meditative state throughout your day, and that's because, at its core, meditation is a very natural state of being. Theta-brain, aka relaxed brain moments, occur when you're daydreaming, traveling down memory lane, imagining your future, swimming, bathing, or in a deeply relaxed creative state (to name a few). Knowing this, the bigger question becomes: how can you create an intentional meditation practice in your daily life? Today, we'll discuss: 🙏 simple ways to begin meditating 🙏 what a moving meditation is 🙏 'brain-clutter' and how to clean it 🙏 how to invite your Spirit Guides into your practice 🙏 the importance of grounding and breathing  Because Earth School is hard, without making time to meditate, connect with the unseen, and access your support from the Other Side. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What would you do if you found a headstone on the property of your newly acquired home? That's precisely what happened to Julie, aka Elf.

Today Brenda helps Julie connect even deeper with the Spirits that once lived and dreamed on her Santa Fe property. We'll take a look at the history of the space and its former (ahem...) occupants. We'll discuss why it's important to respect, honor, and preserve family heritage both here for the living and for those beyond the veil. We'll also learn why it's essential for Julie to assign a job to the spirits that still linger around the home. (Hint: all souls love and need a purpose.)

Seeing the Invisible

If you struggle with accessing your intuition—often feeling like you're unable to 'see the signs' or hear the 'whispers' this is the episode for you!  Navigating the world through intuitive guidance can be difficult for many, leading to frustrations and the feeling that you lack the spiritual gifts others have. So it's a good thing to learn that there are physical tools you can use to access your intuition, talk with your guides, and amplify your spirit connection. You can literally grasp the energy of the Other Side, feel it and see it, through the use of dowsing rods and pendulums. Today Brenda shares why dowsing rods are her go-to for a quick and effective energy read, while Julie explains why pendulums are her jam. Both are used to tune in, connect, and feel the energy of a space or situation. Both are held, gently, in your fingertips, giving you the ability to see intuition in action. Today you'll learn how to ground your energy before using these tools, what the movements mean, and how to select the right tool for your needs. Earth School lessons can often be answered by simply asking, "show me yes, show me no, or show me where." Your Other Side Guides are here to show you how.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life Choices: Take 1

Like driving, life lessons can take twice as long when you turn down the wrong path. So, how do you know which direction is incorrect? It's the one adorned with signs that say: turn here to please others, boundary-free zone, say yes instead of no, merge here to avoid judgment... Today Brenda and Julie offer you a map to your ideal destination. When faced when making choices, there are some key questions you can ask yourself to discern the right path for you. There are also ways to avoid certain 'loops' that override your instincts. You'll learn how to pay attention to your body's cues when making choices so that your decisions honor your innate navigation system. So, how do you know what you know when you know it?

Sh*t Ain't Real

Would you like to understand the motives behind your actions more clearly? Learn how to direct your inner-dialogue so that it's positive and affirming? Spend less time worrying about what others think by honoring your inner guidance instead? If so, this episode's for you...  Habits such as comparison, self-limiting stories, and misdirected energy make you feel all tangled inside. You are presented with unique choices daily, assessing if something is worth the risk, investment, or if it will result in a desirable or appropriate outcome... but how often do you pause to consider where the reason behind your choices stems from?  Awareness of your energetic engagement helps you move from habit, comfort, and dissociation and into a space of growth and inspiration–but first, deep questions will emerge: am I doing this for me, or for someone else's opinion of me? Am I inspired, or envious? Do the words I say to myself align with my truth, or feed my fears?  Today, you'll put on your Other Side journalism hat and get to the source of your fact-vs-fiction mentality.

The fearful energy of the pandemic has morphed into collective chaos, affecting the vibration of Earth School as a whole, prompting us to ask: when will we ever learn? As uncomfortable as they may be, we need these challenges to grow and expand. They are an invitation to face your fears, lead with compassion, raise your frequency, and reset your inner-compass using your values as your guide. Finding the space to bring the highest version of you forward, especially when the world triggers you, is one of the hardest Earth School lessons to learn and an undeniable opportunity to grow.  Awareness is key. Today, Brenda shares a few of her favorite mindfulness practices to help you navigate some of Earth School's toughest questions: What am I afraid of? Am I feral or domesticated? Are my social agreements outdated? Where do I need to detox energetically? Because Earth School is hard, and not everyone is as calm and cool as Keanu Reeves (yet...). 😉See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Anger Danger

When was the last time you felt angry? The type of anger that makes your pulse quicken, your face flush, and your hands shake... Anger's vibration is intense, and matching its frequency is seductive. Staying grounded and present before responding can be difficult yet spiritually essential when confronted with its energy. Today we discuss how you can better understand your emotions by asking: where is this feeling coming from, why am I triggered, and how can I feel into this space? These conscious-minded questions aren't easy, yet solving them is a better use of your attention and energy than anger ever could be. Today, Julie recalls a time when anger almost got the best of her, but she didn't allow it to. She shares why she chose a higher path and how wisdom came into play. Because Earth School is hard - if you allow anger to lead the way. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I saw the sun signs

Sun Signs—or as Brenda Rose likes to call them, "the gateway drug of astrology"—are the most popular and well-known astrological placement in one's birth chart. Your Sun Sign helps you better understand your gifts, blindspots, challenges, and opportunities during this lifetime. Today, Brenda Rose breaks down the Sun Signs into their elements—fire, water, earth, and air, bringing a fresh outlook to each sign from ignition (Aries) to landing (Capricorn). You'll discover why this knowledge is beneficial: increasing self-awareness, setting you up for success, and identifying your place and purpose in this cosmic wheel. By understanding the Sun signs—their motivations and mantras—you'll gain the ability to view the world with each zodiac sign's perspective, bringing connections and clarity.Because Earth School is hard without the willingness to understand ourselves and each other better. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cosmic Chaos

We explain what energy vortexes are: how you can feel them, and what to expect when you're in the midst of a vortex.

Saturn in Pisces

Have you felt The Shift?  Saturn is the planet of structure, discipline, and tradition; Pisces is the astrological sign associated with intuition, collective flow, and our psychic center. On March 7th, these two energies merged... so, what does this mean for you and for our planet?  The yin/yang energy of this Saturn/Pisces dance will wash away limiting structures and inspire individuals and the collective to designate what's truly important and what needs to go. Leveraging Saturn's need for structure while it resides among the elevated and emotional waves of Pisces is what this journey is all about. As a result, there will be a gentleness to your contemplations as you re-think big-picture structures and social status'—questioning everything from limitations to boundaries, the reality of time, and what it means to be one with the universe. No big deal, right?  It'll be a time of innovation and reinvention, a time when opposing energies find their compatibility.

Messages from the Crystal Kingdom

Crystals are born at the very center of our planet, giving it its heartbeat and providing the essential energy we need to function and thrive. At the center of this magic is Quartz, the mother of all gems—giving life to amethyst, citrine, rose, and clear, depending on the pressure and temperature it experiences throughout its life. And in this way, crystal formations mirror our own human growth and transformation. Inspired by Julie's recent time at the Tucson Gem Show, today we dive into all things crystals: their faces, color, intensity, structure; the mathematics of crystal structure and sacred geometry, and the ways you can use different crystals to heal and energize your world.

I, Surrender

How do you define surrender? For many, the concept of surrender equals giving up... but what if you viewed surrendering as a power move that says "I'm not fighting what is..." Many fears are attached to the idea of surrender, such as fear of missing out and the fears that bind your productivity to your self-worth. Given the human tendency to 'push through,' it can be difficult to discern when to surrender. And sometimes, that's when the Universe hands you a situation that forces you to submit. Today Julie and Brenda explore moments in their life when they had no choice but to concede... and the magic and life-lessons that transpired thereafter.  Earth School is hard, and letting go can be scary—but after release, comes clarity. Join us today as we discuss when to shut-down in order to level-up, and how to choose surrender as an efficient and elegant energetic investment toward what you really want and need. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Are You Embracing or Embarrassed of Your Gifts?

How do your psychic gifts show up? Do you embrace them, or do you feel uneasy sharing them with your loved ones? Do you share your experiences, or fear others will think you're crazy?

Growth can be attained through dreams, meditation, and messengers in both big and subtle ways. This is how the Other Side breaks through, and no two spiritual journeys are exactly the same. But what happens when those closest to you do not agree with or align with your newfound expansion and abilities?

Using the 12 steps outlined in Joseph Campbell's book The Hero's Journey, Brenda and Julie walk you through the stages of unfolding we all go through as we grow and co-create with the Divine. Choices aren't always yes or no—in fact, Earth School often requires you to soften the edges of shoulda, coulda, woulda by embracing the discomfort that comes with this growth and aligning your choices in accordance with your highest good. From the perspective of Divine order, everything is part of the plan, even when you think you've made a mistake.

Everyday Psychometry

Psychometry is the ability to read an object psychically. Everything in this world emits energy. That's why you can 'read' a room, 'get a vibe' from a person or space, or 'sense' energetic shifts. Therefore, the ability to read the energy of an object is not an obscure talent. With focused intention, you can learn how to develop or strengthen this psychic ability. So much of your intuitive work begins with your energy field, which directly flows through your Chakras. Today, Brenda explains how to keep your Chakras clean and open, the importance of grounding and stabilizing your energy, and how to call back your energy from the day. These are vital steps toward maintaining and protecting your exquisite psychic body while nurturing your gifts.  Earth School is hard, so let's softly cradle objects with love, vibe-to-vibe, with the Other Side. (And, the next time you hold something special in your hands, pause for a moment and listen.

The Grief Graduate

When you lose someone you love it's hard to find your way through the pain of loss. So how do you know when you're ready to become a grief graduate? The grief process isn't linear. No matter how long you grieve, you never not miss them. The beauty and clarity of the grieving process resides within. Once you realize you carry the energy and bond with your loved one with you, inside you, every moment of every day, the freedom comes in believing and releasing all the rest that's holding you back. Energy never dies—it transfers and transcends time and space. Earthly possessions carry an energy that is sticky. By spending time with what you are holding on to in the name of grief and love, you will feel this shift and know when it's time to let go of the things, while holding on to the love.

The Urge to Purge Pt 2

What's the difference between clearing out a space and cleansing your space? Today we dive into the nuances and continue our previous discussion—The Purge. Cleansing a space (aka Smudging) is performed when you need to clear the energy around your home, your relationships, spirits, habit, cords, and patterns. Clearing a space occurs when you need to open up the energetic flow in your home; make room for the new by releasing the old. Your intuition will guide you when it's time to do either or both, and the results of these practices can be felt immediately.  Both practices ask you to consider: what energy supports my vision, and what energy diminishes it? By taking your time, you will feel your way through both practices. Today, we will show you how. Earth School is hard, and the Other Side is ready and waiting for you to clear the doorway for new blessings and beginnings to come in.

When you understand and accept who you are, you can see and accept others as they are—free of judgement, expectations, resentment or insecurity. Today Brenda explains how knowledge of the enneagram and astrology can help you on this journey of self-acceptance and big Love.  Earth School is hard, without the love, growth, and generosity the Other Side brings.

Insider's Insights #22: Grief

Have you ever wondered if a person knows when they are going to jump the planet? What crystals can soothe the earth-bound soul through their trauma or grief when someone they love has passed? What is the life review process like once a spirit is on the other side?  (And, on a completely different note... for the love of all things caffeinated, why is coffee considered a low-vibe beverage?) Dealing with the loss of someone you love deeply is always difficult. Today's episode springs from several questions submitted by our listener Sue (or Chop-Suey for those who know..) Sue shared her questions about death with us after her mother's recent passing. Moments like these are a delicate time, asking us to remember and honor the many contrasts of life: We cannot have joy without grief, just like we cannot get lost in laughter without first shedding a few tears. There is value to our grieving process if we embrace it and love ourselves through the process. For here on Earth School, the price we pay for beautiful love, is grieving those who've moved on to the Other Side. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Insider's Insights #21: Family

Have you ever wondered: Who (or what?) is your baby smiling at, especially when they sleep? Are orbs always spirits, and if not, how can you tell the difference?

What's the most accessible way to meditate upon these questions and more? Today we answer our listeners' questions above, which all center around the theme of family. You'll discover why children can see and feel spirits without even trying, how pre-birth contracts apply to every birthing choice, and why meditation is such a powerful yet gentle tool to help you navigate your family situation. As always, we are forever thankful and inspired by the questions you—our Other Side family—send us.

Word of the Day: Joy

Many of you live your life in the pursuit of Joy. Yet, you can only experience it after you've felt opposing emotions. It may seem contradictory, but sadness and anger are the on-ramps to Joy. And... you can seek out more Joy in your every day. In fact, it's an integral part of living a life of conscious, spiritual flow and awareness. You already know there's not much you can control in your external world, and we all need the reminder that our inner world is where Joy can be found—even when you're swimming against chaos. Join us today as we discuss how to recover from bad times, stay calm during trying times, and find healthy ways to invite more Joy in. Because Earth School is hard, without the high-vibe frequency Joy brings.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Haunted Theater

Traveling back to your hometown can be full of emotions… joy, dread, curiosity. But for Julie Rieger, a trip back in time to her homeland landed her in the scariest place she’s ever been. Today Julie shares this story. Full of evidence that you should always trust your gut and listen to your intuition, especially when it suddenly knocks you off balance, Julie’s initial simple little trip turned into a tale that rattled even the most advanced spiritual warrior. Here on Earth School, it’s imperative you learn how to keep yourself grounded and calm during unexpected experiences.

Word of the Day: Reverence

Word of the Day is back and today we are exploring 'Reverence'. This high-vibe word is not one that's commonly heard or felt, but when Reverence hits you, it brings you back to your natural state of wonder. It's those moments when you remember you are part of something so much bigger than your self—overcome with gratitude, grace, and humility. It moves your heart to reclaim the space in this world that's full of magical miracles and mystical vibes. In its embrace, you remember what truly matters. Today we discuss this beautiful state of Reverence: how to allow it, recognize it, cultivate and call it forth.  Earth School is hard, without the feelings that lie deep within a space of Reverence. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They share ways you can comfort them, inspire them, and remind them of the power they have to both shape the planet and keep their vibe high.

Indifference

What does it mean to be Indifferent, and do you even care? Of course you do. You were built and brought here to care. But sometimes, we all slip into a state of indifference, whether we realize it or not. Today Julie shares a personal story that, 30 years later, led her to a state of indifference and how she went from feeling sabotaged from the event to feeling nothing along the way. Indifference is different from a state of serenity. It creates an opening for pain by disregarding compassion and humanity. There are nuances in the frequency of indifference that, once acknowledged and activated, can lead to a high spiritual lesson of accountability. Today's conversation will help you discern which side of the ego your indifference lands on.

Pre-Life Planning

Sunday's Full Moon & Total Lunar Eclipse has many of you asking: What's my life purpose? Why am I in this situation (good or bad)? Did I really sign up for this?! Is there another reason for my current life challenges? Eclipse energy intensifies things in a way that powerfully gets your attention to wonder about the bigger picture - on a deeper level.That's why this is the perfect time to discuss the process of pre-life planning—the contract you make on The Other Side with your Spirit Team before returning to Earth School. Your contract has many purposes: healing, overcoming challenges, expanding love in our world, and karmic balancing... just to name a few.Earth School is hard, until you recognize that every moment of your life is part of a Divine plan full of support, grace, and co-creation.

Coping with Chaos

Earth School is hard; one moment you're swimming with dolphins, then next moment you're swimming with sharks. We've all experienced the dreaded phone call, the unwelcomed diagnosis, the loss of something or someone we felt would be there always. These moments turn our life upside-down, and have the potential to turn us into someone we are not. Today Julie shares the frightening and heartfelt struggles she and her wife experienced after their cancer diagnosis; a moment in time that brought out her anger and her biggest fear, leading her to treat those around her with coinciding energy. Through this journey, she learned how to lean into what became an A-HA moment that changed her perception permanently: learning how to surrender, go with the flow, and let go... Chaotic situations have the power to turn strangers into friends and enemies into teachers. What is required from you is deep soul-searching work that allows you to be fully present. This, of course, is one of  Earth School's most difficult journeys.  Yes, Earth School is hard... and impossible without the beauty and kindness available to you on the other side of chaos.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lindsey's Reading

Do you tend to overthink, question your decisions and your abilities, and struggle to trust your intuition? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, congrats! You are indeed a human here in Earth School. (in case you were questioning that too...) Utilizing astrology and numerology, Brenda gives a reading to our listener Lindsey and guides her through the most elegant and personalized math equation there is: 12 houses + 10 planets + 11 numerical vibrations = one you.  Throughout Lindsey's reading, we are all reminded that wherever you are right now, you are informed, there is a pathway, and shifting your lens is what enables you to see life more clearly. We all wonder what we're doing with our lives, longing for meaning and purpose instead of going through the motions. Earth School is hard, and full of internal pressure.

Ghost House Rules

Home, ideally, is a place of respite, rest, and retreat. But when you're hosting ghost guests and spirits, it can feel like you're operating a 24/7 bed & breakfast. So, how do you establish boundaries and rules when spirits reside in the home with you?Today's episode kicks off with Julie's haunted house story, with the main character being her dad, aka Tom the Hall Walker. And as with any relationship, communing with spirit requires clear communication, the ability to delegate, and healthy boundaries. Brenda shares how to make sure you're communicating in the best way possible with the spirits that reside with you.These lessons do not require a haunted home to apply to you. We all have Spirit Guides beside us, many of which are more thoughtful, reliable, and understanding than blood family. They're eager to assist you.

Disappointment is part of Earth School, and it especially stings when what you felt was true turned out to be wrong for you.  Spirit isn't here for your continued comfort; it's here to push you forward into new terrains of growth, expansion, and TRUST in the process. Today we talk about the subjects that, when they take a detour, matter most in our heart: home, family, future.

"If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration." - Nikola Tesla What's it like to smirk in the face of the impossible? If we knew Elon Musk personally, we may have an answer. Until then, we, like much of the world, step back and observe his actions, words, and decisions—most of which strive to affect and connect humanity. Every generation has its rule-breakers and game-changers. They come to the planet to shake things up and pave new ways. Whether Elon inspires you or frightens you is of little consequence. He's going to do his thing. It's his calling.

Generations

A Boomer, a Millenial, and a Gen Z walk into a bar. They all order the same drink, and they all like the song playing in the background.Just kidding. This would never happen.(And I know you're wondering, but Gen X didn't even bother to go out.)Every generation brings its challenges and gifts and irritates the hell out of the other. Yes, it's fun to say "ok, boomer" and laugh out loud at amusing memes that poke fun at every age range, but the truth is, shifts in consciousness require an understanding of those before us and an acceptance of those still to come. Each generation comes in with a frequency, and we will forever be adjusting the dial as we tune in.From shifts in human rights, spirituality, gender, values, and ethics, each generation's purpose is to leave a map for the next one. From there, the 'youth' decide which roads to keep open and which pathways to form anew.Earth School is hard - until you see the invisible threads that bind generations together, with the soul purpose of elevating humanity.

Storytelling

What lens do you use to view the world? A lens of joy, love, fear, grief, or uncertainty? All the above, or depending on the moment? Life is a series of choices, and we all long for meaning and connections to that which is sacred and true to our authentic being. Our lens is what shapes that message. Using some of her favorite shows and movies as a springboard for conversation, Julie reminds us to be open to the inspiration that can be found through Storytelling. Everything you watch, read, absorb, create, and tell yourself has the ability to lead you to states of transformation, redemption, and hope. Storytelling, when done powerfully, is a way to connect us all to something greater than ourselves. Earth School is hard - and full of distractions... but sometimes, if you look a little closer to the stories you're watching, you can tune-in and tap-in, simultaneously.

Hypna-Go-What?

Shakespeare once said, "To sleep, perchance to dream..." But what if your sleep-dream states are fraught with unwelcomed mysteries? States of sleep, and the sleep disruptions that many of you experience, are areas where science and spirituality often disagree. What science calls sleep hallucinations can be dream-induced moments of clairvoyance or clairaudience. Lucid dreaming, sleep paralysis, and hypnagogia are a few of the more intoxicating moments of sleep-state that, much like sleep itself, are hard to explain, define, or control. For spirits—both pure and ominent—sleep is a threshold, an opening for communicating with vulnerable souls here on Earth. Sometimes these messages are gentle, sacred, and soothing. Other times, they are wrought with fear. Today we tip-toe in and further explore the world and mystery of sleep—because Earth School is hard, and there must be rest for the weary.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 Today's episode is inspired by three powerful questions regarding the inner-workings of the heart and its connection to the Other Side:    *What's the difference between your higher self and the Divine?    *How does shadow work affect your higher self?    *How can you trust what you are feeling to be a message from the Other Side vs. your imagination or what you want to hear?    Seeking answers of guidance that spring from the heart is always part of the transformation process. It's the merging of your inner world with the outer world; the clearing away of the dust that prevents you from seeing clearly.

A Day in the Life of a Medium

Have you ever wondered what day-to-day life is like for a medium? Just like the rest of us, each day for a medium is ripe for unknowns, no matter what we think we know about what it will hold. The key difference is: mediums take the time each day to energetically prepare themselves through personal ritual and meditation practices, and they are dedicated to their routines. Mediums know that it's in these quiet spaces when they engage with Spirit, they will receive the guidance and messages they need to honor. This is the best way to have the best day. Rinse repeat. Proper preparation is essential to serve those on this side - and the Other Side.The good news is, you too can design your own spiritual routines that equip you with the highest and clearest mind possible. You don't have to speak with the spooks on the regular in order to validate the intentions you bring to each day. Tune in and be inspired to add more Other-Side-juju to your Earth School 'to-do' each and every day.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Premonition vs. Prediction

What's the difference between a prediction and a premonition?  Both a prediction and a premonition are future-focused, relying on patterns that present themselves to foresee what may happen, yet neither is absolute. Predictions feel more centered and hold a lighter energy; premonitions can at times feel scary and dark. Accountability for your participation in either arena is vital if spiritual support is sought. Today we discuss what to do with these energies and the choices they present. We explore how tarot and astrology come into play, and give examples of both the light and the dark side of this oft-considered taboo 'gift' from the Other Side.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jumping Jack

Trigger Warning: This podcast discusses death by suicide. If you or someone you know is at risk, contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline for support at 800-273-8255.If your life has been affected by suicide, or if you yourself have felt the depths of despair that lead to contemplating this decision, then you are already aware of the uncertainty and loneliness death by suicide brings. Listener Krista wrote to us with questions that lingered in her mind after the death by suicide of a dear friend. If someone takes their own life, does that mean they have 'failed' Earth School? Is suicide ever a lesson one needs to learn as part of their Earth School journey? The answer to both of these questions is 'No.' Suicide, though always an option, is never part of the plan or soul-contract one makes. It provides no relief nor has any benefit to any of the parties affected. The departed, now on the Other Side, report that they recognize they did have a choice; that there was always hope and healing - either here or on the Other Side. Today Julie & Brenda discuss what you can do if you are struggling with any aspect of this topic. Also, about discerning voices from reality, how and where to ask for help, and how to support your healing process if someone you love has jumped the planet in this way. Earth School is hard, without hope and healing from the Other Side.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tarot 2022 Pt. 1

As the New Year approaches, what can you expect from 2022?  Using a ten-card tarot spread as her guidebook, host Brenda Rose reads the energy of the new year—an energy that is grounded in an 'extra' (also known as 'the jumper') card that sprang out from her deck as she prepared her reading. The energy of this 11th card brings a deeply feminine and beautiful message to the planet; a gift of love and creation that we all will most certainly benefit from. Tune in today to learn how, in 2022, humanity has the opportunity to redefine and recreate. Julie and Brenda share tarot-inspired guidance, rituals, intentions, and tools to help you harness the potential 2022 brings. Today's episode is part one in a series, with insight into the first six months. Next week, we dive into the second half of 2022. You can't change what you can't see. But you can get a glimpse of what's to come through Tarot and the Other Side.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Magical Douchebag

The Holidays are upon us, so it's a perfect time to brush up on your 'coping with douchebags' skills. Today's lesson comes courtesy of Julie, who shares how she maintained her composure when recently presented with some unsolicited magical douchebag wisdom. Of course it wasn't actually wisdom the douchebag shared... yet it was the moment when Julie recognized how wise she had become. She had resisted matching his vibe and energy. She traded a blow up for the glow up, and simply walked away. How can you maintain your composure when presented with confrontation, ignorance, and aggression? How can you mindfully respond in the moment, at a later time, or know when it's best to never ever give the words or thoughts of another a second thought? You already know you cannot control the actions of another; you are only in charge of your response and reactions. Your power resides in the space where you know who you are— and that's a space of strength and grace. Earth School is hard, and douchebags abound... but you can stand strong in your power and not take the bait, with the tips and words of true wisdom from the Other Side.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Life's Purpose

How often do you think about your life's purpose? Not the job or title you hold or the words and activities that you think may 'define' you—but the energetic mark you came here to leave on the planet? Great stories hold a mirror to your soul and remind you what it means to be human. Today's discussion is inspired by Mitch Albom's book The Next Person You Meet in Heaven, and Julie's beloved Mona, whose spirit gave us all this message to receive: "you have no idea what one more day on the earth could have meant to me." So often, it's the little moments that carry the clues to the big meaning of it all. It's not what you do, but how you do what you do, that matters. So how do you know if you are living your life's purpose? The answer can be found in your heart, not your head. Earth School is hard, but you are here for a reason. Allow the Other Side to guide and remind you why.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Knock Knock

Knock, Knock... Who's there? Well, I'll tell ya what's not there... Julie's keto ice-cream bars.  Today's episode is inspired by our listener Dena, who wants to know why Spirits knock on walls. And the answer: because they can, isn't quite satisfying enough, although we think we're quite funny today. Is there a hidden message or meaning behind the number of times a Spirit knocks? How can you protect your space and body from these disturbances? At the very least, if Spirits are a-knockin, can we stop them from rockin? Today we share which crystals you can use around your home to help keep the Spirits at bay. We also give specific wanding techniques that are helpful to keep your body energetically clean. Here on Earth School, we all deserve a good night's sleep, especially when those party animals from the Other Side play ding-dong-ditch.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Insider's Insights #14: The Florida Episode

If you are tuned-in to your psychic abilities, can you choose who and what you want to see from the spirit realm?  Today's episode is inspired by our listener, who wants to continue her friendship with a loved one who is about to jump the planet. How can you discern which spirits to interact with? Is that even possible? And if so, how? It is possible to control your spirit communications and converse with the Other Side on demand. However, it takes dedicated practice, quality instruction, clear intention, and skill to discern and navigate and frequencies on the Other Side. We'll also discuss the "clairs" - clairvoyance, claircognizance, clairsentience, and clairaudience - and how to recognize which clair is predominant in you. Earth School is hard, until you learn to trust the messages you receive and accept the way you receive them.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Conjuring

What is a conjured spirit and how does it differ from other spirits and the angelic realm?  Conjured spirits are born intentionally through those who work in the dark arts. They are part of the 'ecosystem' of spirits, and just like the rest of the invisible world, have been around since the dawn of time. The intention required to both birth and destroy a conjured spirit requires deep knowledge and a masterful hand. Conjured spirits stand in a league of their own, void of a soul, and full of the darkest energy available in any realm. Today Julie and Brenda share their experiences and knowledge of the conjured and give clear advice on how to avoid this energetic force at all costs. Earth School is hard, and for every yin, there's yang... but the Other Side overflows with love, kindness, and eternal healing energy to bring us out of the dark, no matter how scary that can be.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You know when your energy and vibration are high - because moments feel crystal-clear, and the sum of those moments becomes your reality. It's magical!The same goes for when your vibe is low—paving your path with uncertainty, leaving you feeling powerless, distracted, and cloudy. Low-vibrational states brought on by self-defeating habits, environment, or other-worldly energy, distract you from living your best life. At every moment, you operate from a place of Love, or Fear. There is no in-between.

Questions we all wonder about as we traverse through the never-ending curriculum Earth-School brings. Is it possible to reincarnate into an animal, especially when your current earthly body really desires to during the next go-around? Can a spirit from the Other Side choose not to communicate when you desire them to? And, is there a reason or rules for the way a spirit chooses to appear during a reading? Does your spirit need guidance to fully inhabit your body again after a long period spent in an invasive surgery or other form of detachment/unconsciousness? Are there specific mantras and prayers to facilitate healing and connection during times of deep loneliness? Today's episode is a reminder that there is a reason, season, and purpose to everything.

Why Does Evil Exist?

This is a question many of you ask yourself often. All you have to do is turn on the news for a few minutes to see and feel the chaotic energy that lingers around humanity. With so much beauty available in this world, why must we experience the darkness? And of course, many of you have experienced evil first-hand. And many of you know how that energy ultimately propelled you closer to the light. Dealing with dark energy can affirm who you are, and take you forward to where your soul longs to go. But first, you must pass these Earth-School tests. Without the contrast of good and evil / light and dark, our universal expansion would cease to exist. The transformation process that occurs during the dark nights of the soul lead to choices that will raise your vibe higher each time. Today, Brenda and Julie share stories of facing evil energy, and how setting boundaries taught them how to take their power back and fear the darkness no longer.

Let Go My Ego

Is it time for an Ego check? One of the greatest lessons you can learn while walking your Spiritual path is the releasing of your ego. It's an ever-evolving process, full of lessons that creep up on you when you least expect it. That's the ego's favorite playing field—not unlike the silent and sly card shark of a poker game. Awareness is key, yet so often those who have begun their path toward enlightenment get tripped up in ego-games that are the opposite of the light and vibe they are seeking. True enlightenment works in service of peace and love, allowing space for the grace for one another's learning process and individual path. So why do so many self-proclaimed guru's feel like they have the answers you seek without you evening asking? That's because the ego is seeking power, and despises being wrong. Earth School is hard when the ego steers the ship. Today join Julie and Brenda as they discuss the human ego, and the subtle (and obvious) ways it pulses and pulls.

Enneagram

How would it feel to learn why you view the world around you the way that you do?From the moment you entered Earth School, your mind, body and soul energetically scoped the scene, asking "where is my place in this system?"

Hey Baby!

Today's tender subject matter will remind you that love never dies. Loss in any form is hard to deal with, but when it's the loss of a child, the depth of that heartbreaking wound never heals; nor should you expect it to.The bond is eternal, and the love lives on. Losing a child is soul-crushing, goes against the natural order of life as we know it, and is one of the hardest Earth-School lessons to accept. Know that through the grief there is healing. Trust that you will be reunited someday. Always remember that you are held in this space, and your baby is held too.Today Julie and Brenda share deeply intimate stories of sacred love and loss. They discuss the stages of grief and offer comfort to those who have experienced and witnessed the loss of such beautiful, wise and tender spirits. When we share our moments of heartbreak, we share and expand our healing. Sometimes life and love makes sense, and sometimes it doesn't. Allow the Other Side to hold you always, as it so lovingly longs to. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Supercharged Kids

You came into this world with a purpose and your unique magical gifts. Yet somewhere along the way, you may have been led to believe what you see and feel wasn't real. We are here to let you know it is, and it was. Before the age of five, our Chakras are still unfiltered. A child's perception and ability to tune-in to the Other Side is beautiful, sacred, and sometimes a little bit scary. That's why it's imperative we validate their spiritual feelings, intuitive hits, and perspective. And that's why as adults, we remember when the people around us could not do the same. Whether you're a parent wondering how to spiritually support your child, or an adult wanting to tap back into your childhood gifts, today's episode is all about Supercharged Kids—both big and small—and the ways you can connect with the Other Side as we walk this journey together, generationally.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Scarcity City

This is when you must take a breath and contemplate which direction should you take that ultimately aligns with your highest Self.Collective noise can inform, but it doesn't have to hijack your Spiritual path and belief systems. Join us today as we discuss scarcity, privilege, and how to tap into the Other Side and make choices that reflect who you truly are.

If your experience with them was joyful and kind, those curiosities come from a place of love.

What if you could connect with their Spirit and finally have the heart-to-heart you've always longed for? Join Brenda and Julie today as they share intimate experiences both have had communicating with wounded souls that have passed.

Devilish
