Shownotes Transcript
I'm your host, Nicole Bigley, and you are listening to a listener series on A Psychic Story. Hi, everyone. If this is your first episode of A Psychic Story, welcome. If you've been here before, welcome back. This is the 28th listener episode of the podcast where we share the stories you submitted. What's up, Scott? Hi, Nicole. Well, things are going as good as can be. And I've mentioned this a few times, you know, how to manage the...
you know, ups and downs of the daily news cycles and things. And I tell you, and I've been getting more involved with the Course in Miracles program
There is a service that they have where they send out an email a day with each lesson and a summary in less dense, high-level language. So it's just wonderful. And you can get that through pathwaysoflight.org.
But what it does, it hammers the idea of one of the core ideas in the Course in Miracles is that this is an illusion.
this separation is an illusion, that we are all one. We are even all one now. And that the idea to get back to that, to experience that, that we are one with each other, we are one with Source, and to spend time in that space. And the key thing that was the obvious thing that I missed was that
They emphasize to ask. If you can't get there by yourself, you ask for help to see things differently. And I'm telling you, to me, it's helping enormously. Going through the days, planning for weeks and months ahead, just thinking, having much more of a peace about things because it helps it to rise above that.
And so I highly recommend that for those people. - So see things in a different way. Can you give me an example? - You know, like kind of like say the news, right? You know, the news is noise and it's all temporary. We can't do much about it anyway. I mean, we can vote and we can protest or we can do this or that,
But really, what's really affecting us this day, this time, that is not affecting us this day, this time. And so it's a matter of focusing on the other things, you know, our family, our friends, taking our dogs for a walk, you know, looking at the sunset, you know, kind of not putting our heads in the sand, but realizing that in 10, 20 years from now, we may not be looking at this day.
tumultuous time in the same way. Yeah, no, that's good. At one point, I had this mantra, this saying,
That I got from my guides and angels, which was, I see things as they really are. Because, and that's different than what you're talking about to some extent. But at the same time, it's like a lot of it's smoke and mirrors. And I'm not talking necessarily about the news, but what's behind the thing that we're perceiving. You know, what is the...
I guess it is almost like another way of looking at it instead of only through your viewpoint. So I did that. But my intention with it was I wanted to see things on the spiritual level and the spiritual lens. So whether that was, I don't know, angels or ghosts or also picking up on information. So that was my intention behind it when I said it.
But that's cool that you're going through it. And so one more time, what's the website people can go to to sign up? Pathwaysoflight.org. And it's all about the A Course in Miracles. And they have workshops and study guides and dumbed down versions and things like that. So very helpful. I'm not getting paid for this. Well, we're not either. It's a sponsor of the show. I'm not getting paid by any means doing this at all yet.
So, well, at least now at this point, hopefully I will have turned on ads. So we'll see. But anything with the aliens? Well, delving deep into them at this point. And, you know, to me, one big thing for me is that I finally realized and am iterating is that anything spiritual that we have learned as a species has been channeled information.
The New Testament was channeled by those writers. The Quran was channeled by Muhammad. The Old Testament was channeled through various writers there. God inspired, God breathed was the idea that used. And so what I'm saying is now is that when you're looking forward to what God
where our future is going to go and about the history of extraterrestrial activity on planet Earth, the bulk of that information comes through channeled sources, you know, through various people who've been channeling, you know, Pleiadians, Sirians, Lyrians for decades. And what I've been focusing in on is look at those sources and
that have been doing this for 20, 30 years, you know, and there's no scandals, there's no problems, there's no inconsistencies.
there's no issues. And then at least for a channeled source, you say, okay, that's fairly reliable. And then you just go with it. And then whether you believe it or not, you suspend your disbelief and listen to the stories about how extraterrestrials have been involved with our planet, how they will be when humanity reaches a level of higher vibration and achieves that ascension. That's when the first contact occurs.
the widespread first contact will occur where there's going to be communication, trade, exchange of knowledge, that type of thing. So, yeah, that's why I'm kind of in the middle of all that. And I want to kind of take it and make it, you know, put a handle on it so that readers can say like, okay, this makes sense. It's as reasonable as it can be presented and clearly as I can to kind of map out where we are going as a human species. Yeah.
If you had told yourself you'd be writing about extraterrestrials, would you have believed yourself? Yeah.
No, although I always knew, and which actually the bulk of people, about 67% of people in a large study by Pew Research, they do believe in intelligent life. I mean, you know, you just look at the statistics, you know, all the planets. But as far as getting involved, and I haven't done yet, I mean, I work with Marty Rawson on this. We put protocols in how to make direct contact with extraterrestrials.
And so that's what I'm looking forward to. But again, would you believe yourself? Oh, gosh. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, how far you've come. That's fun. I'm like Scott version .5.
And what do your friends and families think about, or friends and family think about this? Because at first it was all the other books. Well, I lost them on the angels. I lost them on the angels. Oh, goodness. So now what are you into? Well, I don't know.
I had to add that. Yeah. So I have to love them. That's the one thing, you know, I've learned to do rather than fight and resist. I'm like, Hey, you know, uh, I love them for who they are. And,
And they love me maybe, maybe at arm's length. I don't know. They do. It's just one of those things when we go down a rabbit hole in one direction and our family and friends aren't necessarily, you know, a thousand percent on board. So it's an interesting part of our journeys, you know, being able to figure all that out.
Yeah, I'd want it to be, you know, I want to have, you know, conversations without like the side eye, you know. Well, this is totally my dad's jam. He doesn't. Yeah, he doesn't. I don't even know if I really talked about this in detail in the show. Obviously, in the book, I talk a lot about how he was instrumental in a lot of things that I experienced. Ask me questions and then, you know, all of that.
But the reason I don't talk about him much on the podcast anymore is he doesn't believe in this stuff. Like the other day, my grandmother was over his mom and my mom had hurt her wrist. And so we were working, doing Reiki energy and he comes outside and he like, what the heck? You guys are so weird.
And he used to believe in all this stuff. So not God, not energy healing, but aliens. Oh, my. He's like, yep, that he believes that that's, you know, our whole existence for the most part. So it's just an interesting thing.
I feel that people evolve, their beliefs evolve and what they believe in, what they experience, that whole thing. So anyway. And the bottom line is we all choose to believe what we believe is true. Exactly. Whether it's just the Bible or just this follower or this leader, that leader or aliens or.
Angels or, you know, we all choose to believe and there's virtually nothing that can be proven beyond the shadow of a doubt in the spiritual world. You can't analyze anything. Yeah, when I say it too, in the sense that to me, I mean, I don't know if you're very familiar with Doreen Virtue, but she was all about angels and angel numbers and she wrote so many books for Hay House. And now she has gone completely on, you know, flipped as far as doesn't believe in any of that stuff. It's more,
Christ and that and so I find that fascinating that you go and your belief system is so strong on one thing and then you go and you believe something else but at the same time
It's cool to see how, again, your spiritual growth and journey evolves and what makes the most sense for you, not only in that moment in time, but again. So I say that because, again, if you had told your previous self about that, and please tell Marty I said hello. Yeah.
And then before I forget, because I want to make sure I shared this, you may have noticed to the listeners that is that we used to do the first Thursday of every month as a listener episode. And right now we are slotting it in as a regular Wednesday episode. Eventually we'll get back to additional content and.
you know, having regular Wednesday episodes every Wednesday, obviously, and then the first Thursday, these listener episodes. But one, this is a call to you to continue to submit stories so we have enough content and we can do that. But also, too, we're working on evolving the podcast and growing it over time. So, again, we'll get back to the regular cadence and schedule. But so many of you say that this is your favorite part of the podcast.
where you can hear from other people. And I don't want to say like the average, but I'm using air quotes. If people are like, Nicole, it's great that we hear from all these different people that are on certain levels, but we want to hear the average person and their experiences. So this is our way of making sure that we can do that. And we're still going to have
the series within the Listener Story series where, you know, occasionally we'll pull in and do a more detailed and have a more detailed conversation with somebody like Angie Castor and Molly and Jesse Keene and others. So if there is something that you feel like you would, you're feeling called and led to do a deeper dive into your story, if you submit something on the podcast and, you know, Scott and I, Scott's primarily the one, thank you, Scott, for reviewing all of the submissions and, you know, putting a
this together for us. If there's something that we feel like we want to pull out and have a more detailed conversation with someone, we will continue to have that series within the listener stories series to do that. So we have a couple in the queue that are coming up, but wanted to mention that I, or wanted to make sure that I mentioned that.
And then for me at this point, this is our May listener episode and it's dropping on a regular Wednesday. You have heard my solo episode and my news. So yeah, I, it's a whole new chapter and phase for me as I am looking at building out the podcast, starting to create more content for it, but then also offering people more
more time with me as if possible if you're interested and feel called and led meaning whether that's appointments in sessions but also
And looking at having a membership for everyone. So what that looks like is being able to be part of a community live real time where we're going to have conversations every week and have that be a platform and a community for people. Because I know so many ask me, whether they write in or even in the story submissions, where can I go for resources?
you know, to really connect with like-minded people and have that support. So that's really exciting. I don't know, Scott, you look like you want to ask me something.
No, I'm just happy. I mean, I've known you for a couple of years now and we've been talking on and off about this. Sometimes I can't stand this job. I want to leave. And so you're doing it. Well, I love my colleagues. I love my clients. So I don't want that to come across necessarily in a negative way. But you've been really helpful over the last two years where you've helped me brainstorm, you know, what what what.
what can you do to leave? Because it's a lot. I think the fallacy out there is many people think that this podcast and, and,
Me doing sessions was my full-time gig and job. And that's not Scott would help me with a lot of the stuff. And he volunteered his time. And I was extremely grateful for that. But I don't have this massive human team behind me helping me. You know, I pay people to produce and edit the podcast. But that again, that was coming out of my own pocket. So people look in thinking, oh, she might have an EA or an assistant. My mom occasionally will help me. She's my EA. Scott was volunteering his time.
And it was a lot to really be able to do the podcast, which is why in some cases there was inconsistency of, you know, when we would schedule and release things because life got to lifing specifically for my full-time job. So I finally decided after two plus years of my guides and angels saying, you need to leave, you need to trust, you need to leave, you need to trust. I was like, fine, I'm going to do it. And other than that,
I don't really have a plan. I mean, I do, but it's not as if I have this big cushy plan. It was more
It's a leap of faith. It's a leap of trust with all of this. Well, I like that quote I think you put on Instagram. Which one? That if you have your life mapped out, clear, you know, going forward, that probably means you're on someone else's life. Yes, that's why I posted that. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, because we all want, I shouldn't say we all, I shouldn't speak for everybody else, but for myself being type A,
I would love to know what's coming year one, year two, year three. What are the steps? And that's a need to control. And so I think we get in the fear mode of,
If we don't have it planned and we don't know what's going to happen, then we're in fear because we don't have control. So I am choosing to trust and I'm feeling so many people cheering me on, yourself included, my mom, all the listeners. So thank you, thank you, thank you. But the other more exciting thing is that similar to the book, and I promise we will get into the listener stories here in a second.
But similar to the book, my guides and angels were saying, Nicole, you need to build this thing. And again, what I'm working on is creating community more in a tech fashion for people. So and I was starting to get overwhelmed because when they said write the book, I said, OK, bring me the right resources. And Scott, you miraculously showed up in my inbox and we partnered together and we worked together on that. So for this, when they kept saying this needs to be created, it's a big, big thing. It's not only a book.
And so I thought I don't have the time to focus and dedicate to it because that alone will be a full-time job. So I am, that's what I'm going to be focused on. And I don't mean to be vague, but there's a lot of stuff, proprietary information that I don't really want to share just yet until it's ready to be provided to the public and launch, but it's coming soon. So that is pretty much all the stuff. So more podcast content coming.
More one-on-one time with me, creating a membership in a community where people can connect one-on-one together is the immediate. And then the bigger thing is being able to allow people from a tech perspective connect online in the future.
So, and then you and Jesse are going to interview me. Yes. Oh, we can't wait. We're already talking about that. Oh, and that's what I meant to say too. So thank you for Jesse too, because he's also volunteering his time and helping me and being able to grow in this way will allow me to pay him and other people and add to the team. But yeah, I am looking forward to being in the hot seat from you and Jesse and we haven't really scheduled that yet. So we need to get on it.
Well, your journey is going to be great and I can't wait to see how it blossoms. Thank you. Thank you. And the other reason I know that this is totally in my divine purpose and path is that I'm not freaking out.
I feel like I should, but I'm not. Yeah. I'm at peace with it. Yeah. It's a long time coming. Okay. So we are going to move on to the listener submissions so far. This story was submitted by Mia M with the subject, an indigenous man. Hi, Nicole and Scott. Throughout my adult life, I had dreams about an indigenous man. He has white hair with a yellowish tinge and wears light and blue lilac robes. He always seems to appear in times of need and deep introspection. I
About eight years ago, I was recovering from a very tough period in my life. I suffered from severe anxiety and depression, but was coming through the other side at this point. One night, I had quite a significant dream.
where I walked into a space that looked like an old recreation or town hall. The man mentioned was standing next to a trestle table, and he gestured to me to come over. There was a photo album on the table, and I started looking through it. In it were pictures and stories about me. He said, "'This is the book of your life.'" I got about halfway through and was excited to see what the future would hold for me, but the rest of the book was blank. He then said, "'The rest is for you to write.'"
Then I immediately woke up. This followed years of no other contact with him.
I started to meditate every day and was having some deep and profound experiences, and the Indigenous man started appearing again. In one meditation, I walked into a white room, and he was there. We had a beautiful conversation. I can't even remember what it was about. I felt our conversation was coming to an end, and I kept saying to him, "But I don't want to go. I just felt such peace and lightness." He told me I had to go back.
I felt this big jolt, I was pushed back into my body and I was back wide awake. I felt like I had just woken up, refreshed from a beautiful long sleep and I had only been meditating for about an hour. Time passed and I found a great hairdresser who was also an intuitive and psychic. We were discussing our heritage in one session.
I said that I was born in Africa but had no real connection or drive to go back, even though 95% of my extended family is still there. She said, no, you wouldn't feel a connection to Africa. You actually have more of a Native American connection. There is a man standing on your left-hand side looking over you. She then went on to describe the man I have been seeing in my dreams and meditations exactly as I see him.
She told me to start wearing turquoise and lapis lazuli jewelry on my left-hand side, which I do to this day. Anyway, that's my story. Thanks for all you do and for putting together such a great podcast. Love, light, and blessings, Mia. Wow.
That's such a cool story because of the consistency of the person, you know, that I don't know if you've probably heard more stories about that, but I haven't heard that consistent of a story over years. Same person, you know, kind of showing there, you know. Yeah.
Well, I think it's a really beautiful way too to share how we can connect with our guides and angels. And it sounds like she was meditating, you know, a couple times. One, she was sleeping. Another time she was meditating. I can't necessarily quite track all of that, but that she was able to have those experiences. Yeah.
And also get the confirmation and the validation from someone else. And then the description of it. And I loved the fact that she talked about the book and then she got to a certain point. And then he said, this is for you to write, which really is true. Because while we may have certain things designed and planned when we come here,
you know, before when we're on the other side and before we come here to earth rather, is that it is true based on free will and choice. It's still a blank slate that we have to create to some extent. So I thought that that was a really cool way to hear and to your point that it was consistent. Yeah. And then would you say, what would you say about the idea that we have, we have thousands of books of our lives, like,
you know, like, like you would this, like there's one book you're going down, you're writing your own book in this way, but there's another book written where you didn't make this choice. Well, speaking of my, of my choice about the podcast and trying to focus on it,
full time for the most part. There's a me that decided not to take this path, but the timeline I'm on is this. And so she, I would be curious to see if that, at that point when she had had that encounter, that experience, if she was grappling with or wrestling with something,
about making a big decision or if there was a, you know, a point in her life where it could go in one direction or the other. Yeah, well, that was the fork in the road. And then, but it's still good to think like, well, what time am I on now? But to be, this is a good reminder that we do have free will and we can make our own book, you know, in a way. Yeah, no, well, she did say that she was depressed and going through a tough period of time in her life. But so, yeah.
I guess he showed up for support, but also if there was a decision she was trying to make at that time. So he, him giving her that, you know, that you can create this, this beautiful story and it's, it's yours to write moving forward. So.
I like that comment. She's like, well, I think I have a connection to Africa. And she says, no, there's an indigenous man standing right next to you. Yeah, yeah. And also it could have been that she does have a connection to Africa. We all come from Africa, but for the most part, I always love to hear when
Because I believe we receive the messages we need to write in that moment in time that we need to hear. And so that psychic and intuitive was picking up, oh, he's here. He has something to share with you. And this is what you should be paying attention to right now. So that was that door in. But yeah. Well, thank you, Mia, again for submitting. Okay. So next up, this email was submitted by Liz E. with the subject, a former skeptic.
Hello, I was a materialist, and a materialist is someone who just believes in physical reality only. And after the passing of my father in 2015, I took a shot in the dark and began to investigate if there's any valid evidence of an afterlife. I assumed there was close to zero chance.
I first delved into the research being conducted at the University of Virginia Division of Perceptual Studies and with Dr. Julie Brischel at the Windbridge Institute. And that's an institute that studies death and dying and what comes next, basically.
I took classes at the Ryan Education Center and the Society of Psychical Research with Dr. Dean Radin, Roger Nelson, Paul Smith, Dr. Bruce Gradeson, etc. I was convinced I'd find a catch, but I never did.
I even got my own medium reading. I was taking precautions such as a fake name, having a friend pay, etc. And some new things, many things, significantly beyond the odds of chance that could not have been known by normal means. I went to get a behind-the-scenes insider view.
Assuming once I did, I would uncover the catch. Something I'd hoped I wouldn't, but I didn't want to lie to myself. So I began volunteering for the Forever Family Foundation. That's a group that focuses on the idea that consciousness exists beyond death and beyond our physical life. I developed friendships with mediums and met many of the researchers and then weird things out of the realm of our current model of material science began to happen.
I got signs from my dad, like a pile of feathers in an unexpected color, appeared in my room, which tied into both a medium reading I received and a message I kept hearing in my head. Somehow, I knew to walk down an atypical path and stop to look at something I normally would not have, and it had my father's name on it. I even had a very unexpected moment where I got mediumistic information myself that was verified.
This was just a small portion of the many magical and inexplicable experiences I have had, many verified, over the last seven years. I have also continued to delve deeper and deeper into the scientific research, continuing my volunteer position at the Forever Family Foundation, attending the Society of Scientific Exploration Conference, and attending the International Association of Near-Death Studies Conference.
I have even conducted some of my own non-official experiments. I love the A Psychic Story podcast. I have a book and a podcast now dedicated to reaching skeptical people who never thought there could be an afterlife, but are in grief now or dealing with terminal illness. Thank you for the work you do in helping to get the word out that we really do survive death. My website is www.wtfjusthappened.net.
Thank you very much for your consideration. Well, this rang true to me, certainly. Wow, there are so many organizations. Thank you for explaining what was what because, I mean, wow, hopefully that's some additional information that other people out there also haven't heard or if you're aware of it, great. But lots of other resources and sources out there that, again, I myself wasn't even aware of.
Yeah, and thank you, Liz, for sending this in. I mean, this is certainly what I've been kind of doing myself as well, not to the extent that you have. And that's a pet peeve of mine. You know, people say, no, I don't believe it, versus people say, I don't believe it, but they have an open mind to look into it. They continue on rather than just, as I've told them, past friends and family, just shut down, like, no, don't believe it.
And I said, you don't even want to talk about it? You don't even want to investigate? No. So she certainly went deeper. And in following my own story, she in her inquiry, you know, she experienced things and even her own abilities differently.
about the spiritual world. So it's really, I really love that attitude and all the information. And I'll certainly check out the website in the coming days. WTF. Love it. That's funny. What just happened?
Yeah. But also I have known so many people that part of a catalyst of the next evolution in their soul's growth and journey happens to be when a loved one passes or goes, because I do think that we...
tend to, we want to know what is, what is it like after, after this life? And for someone in particular, I would imagine that believes only in the physical and what we can see, which is truly only, we only see so much through our eyes. And there's so many things I forget the
the scientific data point on this, but our physical eyes can only see so much in front of us and what's presented. Think of like a prism. And so there's all of the unseen that even science is proving nowadays, but that, you know, you can't just see with your physical eyes. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. The eyes are limited to like 0.04 of the electromagnetic spectrum that's bombarding us. And even, you know, you have to think of science to be like science scientists. It,
That's only our latest best guess. I mean, look at now. We're talking about teleportation being proven in laboratories. They're talking about bending time. They're talking about all kinds of things. Yeah, quantum physics has now been proven, all the stuff, which are used to telling you a theory. Yeah, and the quantum computers that are starting to incorporate that, it's going to be crazy. So to...
you know, to just say like, well, you know, until, and not only that, it's like, who says that this is true? You know, the educational institutions like with, you know, Egypt and the archaeology and the possible interactions with extraterrestrials, like, well, you know,
You know, the, you know, other Oxford archaeological division doesn't really, you know, agree with this, you know. So who do you go to to say what is true, you know, what is true reality on certain things? So it's always good to keep digging. And another, it's not really a proof point, but it is something that makes me go, is even people like Elon Musk who are starting to patent things like telepathy.
Yeah. Like, you know, they're not going to put their money behind something unless they're, they find something that's out there that's possible, you know? Right. Especially when it comes from a technology, like I do really, really, really, really fully believe that technology is going to start to bridge the gap between all of this. Like on one hand, you have the physical quote unquote reality and the science and the data behind it.
And then you have theories and what is unseen through intuition and psychic abilities, but also what's happening in the spiritual realm. And then the bridge between that is going to be, for the most part, technology and helping us from...
what our human minds can't necessarily feel and see and know and experience on every level. What does that look like? So anyway, exciting times, like you said, it's going to get crazy. Okay. Well, thank you, Liz. So this story is a voicemail from Amy with a subject, a trip back to Egypt. And there is a brief moment where she discusses death. So if you are triggered by that, you're going to want to fast forward through this story.
Hi Nicole, my name is Amy. I am a huge fan of the podcast and I do have the Listening for Angels book, which I love as well. I'm originally from Santa Rosa, California and I currently reside in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have been seeing on your Instagram page that you're planning a trip to Egypt, which is really exciting.
I wanted to share my, which I think is a past life regression story for you in regards to Egypt. I'm not sure if you're going to have a podcast at a certain point about Egypt or...
the energy there but um i just want to share my story so when i was in my late 20s i was going to art school and really that was the start of my spiritual journey and i
Right around that time is when I really started to have vivid dreams, and I still have vivid dreams today. And I think that is when my spirit team or spirit tries to or wants to communicate with me is through my dream space.
And growing up as a child, I was so afraid of the dark. And I remember asking my mom at one point, like, when did that really start for me? And she said, well, when your twin sister and you had gotten your own rooms, she's like you, that's when it really started for you as being afraid of the dark. I think I was about 10, maybe 10 or 11. And
And so from that moment on, I was always afraid of the dark. I mean, like pitch black dark. I always had a sleep with a nightlight. I always got teased. And something about the dark always terrified me.
And then I would say, like, in my early 30s, I was still in art school. I had a dream one night that I was in Egypt. And I was an Egyptian boy. And I was wearing just, like, a white cloth around my waist. And I was in this... kind of on the steps of this building. And I had really...
like just the most exquisite facade of, and it looked like Collins. There was Collins, like I can't even explain it. Anyway, I was standing on like these steps and I'm looking out in front of me and the sun is really bright and yellow and it's in front of me and I'm
All of a sudden I hear this helicopter sound, like a helicopter flying around. And it comes in front of me, in front of the building. And it's a military helicopter. And it's like doing something or like people are coming down from the helicopter and going up. And I thought that was really strange and I felt fear. And so I ran into the building and I go into this room.
I slip into this room and it's dark in there and I'm afraid of the dark in that room. And then all of a sudden, there's like these lights that turn on and they're shining down above display cases. And in each display case, there's different lights.
Egyptian artifacts. And I'm walking around the room. I'm just fascinated by what I'm looking at and all of the detail and all of these artifacts. And there's paintings on the wall. They almost look like oil paintings, but...
I can't really remember that part of it. But anyway, I was so fascinated by all of the artwork in there. And then I heard voices and I got really scared. And so I thought to myself, I have to hide. And so I hid behind in the corner behind one of the display cases and I
I'm crouched behind it. I could hear the voices. I hear the door of the room like creak open like someone's walking in and I hear footsteps and I feel myself dying. And then everything goes black. Anyway, I woke up and I immediately felt and I had this sense, almost like someone telling me, you're no longer afraid of the dark.
You don't have to be afraid anymore. I got the message after I woke up. The reason that you were afraid of the dark...
in this present time is because you had died in the dark in your past life or as a boy in Egypt. But now that you had that dream and came to that realization of your experience, you're no longer afraid of the dark. That's an old life and that door has closed. And ever since then, I've never been afraid of the dark anymore. I don't...
the same way about the dark as I did then. And the dark is almost comforting to me. Like I go to bed and I want to sleep in a dark room, which is just, oh man, boggles my mind. But anyway, that's my story. And I don't have any...
I don't feel like I have any ties to Egypt. I find that place fascinating. Like, I would love to go at some point. But anyway, I just wanted to share my story and my past life experience. All right. Thank you so much. Bye. Wow. So what I find really fascinating about this, and this actually –
The example I'm going to share happened to my grandfather, so my dad's dad. And he had, for a good portion of his life, had this lower back pain. And the doctors could never figure out what was going on with this lower back pain that he was having. It was almost kind of like these phantom symptoms of sorts. And so fast forward years later after him and my grandmother died,
met and got married and had kids, there was this psychic or this medium and she didn't know anything about him. And she sat down and she said that he had had this past life where in this past life, he was this warrior. He had been in war and he got stabbed in his lower back. And so she's describing this whole thing. And as she's describing it, he starts to recall these memories that he had had from this past
from this alternate life. And from that moment on, my grandmother, because he's no longer here for me to ask him about his experiences, she said he never had that lower back pain anymore. So I, again, firmly believe too that our alternate lives, because if we think, as you were saying earlier, we're all connected, we're all one, but also we have these different timelines and these different books rather in what our life is like.
And they impact us, even though it might be on a different timeline or maybe it's a different life per se. It's still almost impacting our energy field. But when we become consciously aware of, oh, this isn't impacting me here in this moment, in this place.
present being of, you know, whatever your name is and that experience, there are, there is the possibility rather to release that from our energy field. And I've talked to numerous other people who, when they go through and have had either their own experiences visually guided from themselves or working with someone else where they can tap into that experience
that experience, it releases. So I find it fascinating that she was able to have that memory for the most part of Egypt and then recognize, all right, well, that happened. That was a very traumatic thing that happened. But then she's like, okay, there's no need for me to be afraid in the dark here. I'm protected and everything else. So thank you, Amy, for sharing. And yes, that's my perspective. Scott, what's yours?
Yeah, I like this because it's a spiritual example of a therapy that's used by humans, you know, with the regression. And certainly hypnotic regression has been around ever since Gary Weiss with the Many Lives, Many Masters kind of brought that into fruition about his first experience regressing a person back to another life.
to a point where there was an issue that once that issue was kind of unlocked, the person didn't suffer from that experience anymore. And certainly PTSD, the core therapeutic model of PTSD is to relive the experience enough times where the emotionality is dispersed.
That's how people get over PTSD through times very tough, very hard. But that's the goal is to do that. So it's like a very common thing in that sense. But this was spirit led through her dreams and it worked. So I really like that.
Do you have, speaking of, I wasn't planning on asking you this, but do you have any like past life experiences that you've been drawn to lately? No, other than, um, the only vision I had, it was that, and I think I mentioned this once is that, um,
I was just like looking in a mirror, you know, you take a mirror and next to a mirror and you can look at the reflections, the hundreds of reflections going back. I get a very clear vision of that where each reflection is me, but I look differently. I wear different clothes and go back and forth. And then I was told, and I kind of,
It kind of rings true to me, although I don't have specific memories about being a priest in the 1500s in Scotland. I can see you with that. Yeah.
We did talk about that. Yeah. And that I discovered that it was a Catholic priest and I discovered that the church was built on a Druid temple and I got into it. And then I started incorporating some Druid principles into my homilies, which that sounds like me. But I look back and I didn't see any Scott Gerrans in the 15th century in the castle, you know, in a church.
in a monastery or a priest. Everyone cue. That's when Scott wants us to laugh. Oh, goodness. Oh, goodness. But yeah, but getting back to, well, thank you for Amy for submitting the story and your experience about your trip back to Egypt. And for me,
I have had, and I do, we have an episode where Brianna and I talk a lot more about the Egypt trip. So if you're interested, you can go and you can listen to that. And I share in that about how I had done a past life regression. My sister, actually, she was 10, 9 or 10 at the time. And she helped me go through this and have a lot of these experiences.
that I had through Atlantis and Egypt. But I say all that because Egypt as a whole, if you're interested, that trip is September 1st to 14th, 2025 this year as we record. And the deadline to submit and apply if you're feeling called and led to go is June 1st. And that's where you have the current special rate and payment options. But after that, you'll have to July to sign up, but it won't be at that special rate. So that's...
So that's a plug for the Egypt trip. So thank you for allowing me to do that. All right. So, Scott, you have the next one. Yes. So the final story for today is a voicemail from Morgan from Indianapolis with the subject leaving L.A. Hi.
hi nicole my name is morgan i am living in indianapolis now where i was born and raised but when i started listening to your show about maybe six months ago i was still living in los angeles i've been
I don't know, move to call and tell you my story and I guess I'll start there. So several months ago, I think it was around June 24, my husband and myself and my two kids, we were living in Los Angeles and we both, my husband and I work in the film industry, which is in a dark place right now. And so we have been struggling
my husband's very involved in his union and he was up for a job within the union as soon as the job came up he had a very visceral negative reaction to it he I'm
I mean, he just started melting down in front of my eyes. It was very strange because he's normally a very solid character. And I felt like the job was the answer to our prayers. It would have given us some consistency and the hours would have been much better and helped me with
family and all you know all of that because we were both transplants there and didn't have any family and I was sitting I was in my backyard and thinking about all of this and all of a sudden I heard a very strong loud voice that said if he does not get the job you will have to leave prepare
And I remember hearing it and looking around and thinking, oh, I'm going to say goodbye.
And then, you know, later washing the dishes and looking out my window and thinking, "This is it. I'm going to say goodbye." And that night I told my husband, "Yeah, I think if you don't get this job, I think we're going to have to move back to Indianapolis where I was born and raised." And he said, "Yeah, I think you're right."
you know after that he did put effort in to make the job happen but it ended up not happening and we started making the moves to move across country with our children and our
our dog. And the whole time I kind of felt unsure if we were making the right decision. If this was it, I have done many moves in my life and I always had felt excited about them. And this one, I did not feel excited. I felt, you know, that, uh,
It was very sad for me. I love living in LA. It was the home of my heart. But in that time, while we were making plans and preparing to move, I found your podcast and it has been enormously helpful. I have always felt a strong sense of intuition and I've had a number of
experiences both with paranormal and protective entities around me angels and I've just really felt that meeting this moment in finding my connection with spirit is been
just one of the most profound moments of my adult life, actually. And so now here we... Then I kept feeling really sick about moving. Once we did move at the end of 24, I felt good about it because we're surrounded by my family, who's very supportive and loving and wonderful. But at the same time, I just felt sick. I felt awful. And he has...
had to go back to L.A. to continue working. He works on set, and he had a show starting, and I just, I mean, I just felt sick, but I felt that something really bad was coming. And I kept thinking, I'm glad we're not there, but I'm really, really worried about you going. I don't know why. I'm just feeling really, really worried about everything. And he left, and two days later, the fire started. And I know myself, I would feel...
really uncomfortable continuing to stay there after the fires with my two small children. I pray and I'm deeply concerned about all the people, especially the children of Los Angeles. I'm very worried about the enormous amount of toxicity that exists in that city now. Yeah, I just felt the need to call and tell you my story. Thank you for all that you do. It has been
been so helpful to me and I know many, many thousands of others. And yeah, I send you many blessings. Thank you again so much. Bye-bye. Yeah. Well, thank you, Morgan, for submitting that. And, you know, I think that at least from the universe and source, we all receive
and messages to some extent, whether it's for that moment in time in our lives or later. And, you know, life got to the point where
There was another path for your family, another location, even if it's not necessarily what you were feeling in your heart and soul at that time, but that you were moved for the most part for your best and highest good, your family's best and highest good out of that, you know, out of that location, even though you loved it so much. And then with the fires happening, thank goodness you didn't have to be there.
during that time and that experience because I've heard from so many how traumatizing it was and still is, obviously. And for those that are interested, I did have a conversation with Thomas Worm, who's been on the podcast before, but he came back on where we talked about sentient fires. That's episode...
So you may want to go back and listen to that. But I did speak with Morgan separately. I ended up having a phone conversation with her and we talked about this and, you know, the fact that, you know, she's in a better place where, you know, right now Indiana might not be necessarily forever, but it is where she is at this moment in time. So anyway, thank you again for sending in that story, Morgan. Yeah, to me, it brings back
It comes back to decision-making. And I always tell people, if you're getting into astrology, if you're into whatever you're interested in and looking for direction, it's the information that you get that you make decisions on is the most important thing to watch out for or to vet very carefully. And so here you have kind of back the same thing. She had a feeling that
you know, that she shouldn't go. She kind of wanted to and was told that, well, if he doesn't get the job, you're going to have to move.
And it's those decision points that are fascinating to me and how we want to see a path and want to do something in our minds or ego. And then we get redirected. In this case, I bet you she wouldn't have gone if she wouldn't have moved if her husband got that job. And she would have been who knows what would have happened.
but she was almost physically directed away. But there are times when that doesn't happen, and we have to rely on our intuition, trust our gut, trust our connections to spirit to
guide us and then we make a decision that could be life changing. Yeah, absolutely. And for me, when and when you were talking, a couple examples came up, you know, this could be applicable to jobs, it could be applicable to a relationship to a living situation. But you're exactly right. When
When we are presented with options and choices in life, if we don't necessarily make that choice or that decision that is for our best and highest good, then the universe is going to make sure that we are on the path at some point.
So, yeah, I'm glad to hear at least again that even though it wasn't something that she wanted to do right there in that moment in time, it was the best decision for her. And they got out of it in advance of, again, something like that happening in L.A. for sure. Okay, well, thank you to everyone for listening and submitting stories.
the six year anniversary of the podcast is coming up in June. I can't believe it's going to be six years. So yeah, June 6th was when I, 2019, when I had the first episode of a podcast and I believe I shared this before, but June 6th holds a,
special place in my heart because that was my heart dog or my soulmate, Moss, his birthday. And so I wanted to honor him. And that's when I decided I was like, I'm going to pick a date on a calendar. So the six year anniversary is going to be a big celebration. So if you have any thoughts about what you want to see in that episode or anything else, please, you know, send those in, but also any stories that you want to share about the podcast and

Great. And I do have a short thing to put in here. Hope you don't mind. Is it a joke? No, it isn't a joke. Why do I have to say that? That's your disclaimer. You've got to say that now. The planet Earth is like a top, you know, and when a top spins and it starts slowing down, it wobbles, right? So the Earth is wobbling. And that wobble is called the precession. And that wobble, if you take a line and go from the north...
south pole to the north pole up into the sky that wobble creates a circle and the earth is pointed right now towards ursa minor which is a little dipper but over a full cycle of 29 290 years it makes a full circle through all different different constellations
And so what people say is that it's a procession that lasts 29,000 years. We're about halfway through. And in some traditions, Hinduism especially, says these are...
Kali Yugas, or these are Yugas. And we just finished the winter, the fall winter Kali Yuga, which is a time of darkness, a time of keeping, you know, self-centeredness, etc. When we're coming out of that, going to a Sata Yuga, which is a blossoming, which is the next 12,000 years is going to be a golden time.
But in this time, this is the cause of a lot of the unrest that we see in the tumultuous times. And we see it now happening. And there's other aspects that I can get into, but I just want to focus on that because this one quote is a wonderful close for this segment. And it's from the Indian yogi, a mystic and a spiritual leader called Sadhaguru.
And the quote is,
Even in the worst of times, the possibility to be well above it is always there for an individual human being. I thought it'd be a great way to go that we can find our peace. A peace that passes understanding is available to us at all times, 24-7. Oh, thank you for that, Scott. Appreciate that. Yeah, I just, I ran across it last week. I just loved it. Oh, thank you for sharing. Thank you.
Okay, with that, take care, everyone, and we'll see you next time. Yeah, thank you, psychic listeners.
