Listener Stories Ep 29: Signs in Divine Timing
50:37 Share

When I started A Psychic Story in 2019, I didn't put any ads on the podcast. On occasion, I would feature my book looking for angels and events I was attending. But now one of my goals is to evolve this endeavor into a full-time passion. You heard it here first. I'd love to be able to do more episodes, grow the show, add a team, and eventually even revisit my other two podcasts, A Psychic Story Kids Edition and Supernatural Matters. And so in order to pay for this, I am turning on ads.

This is a critical piece in being able to continue to do this work, to be in service and create community among us. Oh, and if you want uninterrupted episodes, head over to Patreon to get those not only ad-free, but early each week.

I'm your host, Nicole Bigley, and you are listening to a listener series on A Psychic Story.

the top. We try to make it really easy for you to be able to share. And just remember, when you're sending in a story, you're giving us permission to share it with listeners. I thought I'd shake things up and say that at the beginning versus the end. But other than that, Scott, how are you? What's new? Good. Oh, I'm just loving this warm weather. I mean, I spend as much time outside as possible on weekends.

My motorcycle or my bicycle or walking, whatever, just sitting in the sun. It's just so nice, especially after a crazy winter season.

So I'm enjoying that. And then, yeah, I've been just digging into certain things. I was getting into mapping out our galactic neighborhood, right? All the usual suspects with our planetary neighbors. And I was getting into, and I was all pointing to the Lirans. And well, why are people talking about the Lirans? Well, they were probably the first humanoid beings in the universe ever. I'm like,

well, how could that be? And so I dig into that. And then I dig into, well, they most likely were the first humanoids developed by source, by Rob, by whatever, you know, by the founders, you know, on Lyra and, you know, and then their history. And I'm going down this deep rabbit hole on all this stuff. So I just said, all right, forget it. And I went down and watched the

Sharknado 3, you know, the Ian Ziering B film about, you know, goofy thing about sharks. But it was good to take a break and have a little fun because, and I have another thing.

A comment later on I'll mention about just having fun and how spirit likes us to have fun. We're not all somber and things. You know, not everything is eternally essential that we must be focused. You know, we can have some fun too. But that's what I've been doing. How about you? You were at the MindBodySpirit the other week. How did that work?

Yeah, so I didn't go and have an actual booth like we have done in the past. I thought that after a few years of doing that, it's a lot of work, you know, to put up the booth and to be there and everything. And it's always amazing to see people in person. We've had people that have come in from out of state, people that are close.

are close or local to Ohio, which is great and fantastic, but it's just a lot, you know? And so anyway, this was the first time I decided not to have a booth or go in any sort of formal way. So my mom and I decided to go and it was fun walking the show floor, but you'll be surprised. So you know how they had all those extra rooms off to the side, you know, they had the main area when they had done the construction and it was new.

or at least one side of that was new. Well, there wasn't any, there's maybe a few booths in that extra room and everything else was empty there. The, yeah, the main show floor itself was still pretty busy and that was nice to see, but it was, it took my mom and I about an hour, an hour and a half to walk around and see everything we wanted. You know, I love it for so many reasons. When I first started to go, I was

Five, six, seven, anytime it was close to around the Thanksgiving timeframe, either my dad's mom would take me or my mom's mom or all three of us would go. And it was a very fun thing to do. And it was at that point called the Victory of Light. So someone by the name of Victor Peruta had founded it. Eventually he sold it and to, you know, the mind, body, spirit.

And it's really, in my opinion, become an expo. Not that it's still not fun to go, but they had gutter people there and security, home alarms. You know, it just felt very, it feels very commercialized now. But they were spiritual gutters. Yeah. And symbolic in the sense.

Yeah, yeah. But anyway, so it's nice to go and not be a vendor and to see it from that perspective. And I obviously saw a lot of people having been there for a while and building up relationships, which was nice. And then do you want to take a guess psychically as far as what vendor or practitioner took over the Looking for Angels and the Psychic Story booth space? You just want to take a guess. You're not going to get it because it's so random, but...

I don't know, the people making pecans or peanuts. I knew you were going to go with that one. That was smoking us out that whole time. Yeah, and we went home and we smelled like nuts. Yeah. No, it was actually this vendor. They were really cute. They made these crochet little stuffed animals and keychains and stuff.

But what they did was they took the actual, the booth that was on the end that was a psychic story and then the one that was on the other end. So it was kind of like an end cap. So it was neat to like walk in. Oh, I see. Yeah, and do that. So anyway, but yeah, it was weird though going and not seeing our booth there. Yeah. You know? I love meeting the people and especially steam ironing the backdrops. Yeah, that was fun. Oh, you know, I never did return that steamer.

Well, you have a steamer now. Yeah, I have a steamer that doesn't really work very well. But yes, I do. That's the silver lining in it. But no, thanks for asking. It was fun. Oh, and then more importantly, I saw Brianna, Brianna Clover. Oh, yeah. She's from Michigan and she's the one that we're doing the trip with to Egypt or the Egyptian pilgrimage. So that was nice to see her in person. And yeah, I mean, that was it.

Did she have a talk? She was going to, but by the time she went to sign up, all the good spots were taken. Again, I think that they had a lot much lower attendance than the past because they said that they were reaching out proactively asking people for speaking slots. So I think a lot of people got miffed that the

The parking's still not great. Traffic was low. It has been low. And then they raised the prices, you know. And then we'll put a link to the Egypt trip in the show notes for people still interested. Yeah, because by the time this episode airs, we will still be, you know, taking applications and submissions and would love if anyone is interested to, if Egypt is calling you, please join us. We would love to see you in person.

Okay. So what else with me? Oh, so I don't know if, I know at one point I talked about the quote unquote bird that was in my house. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

So last night after I had had a series of sessions back to back and I went outside to really enjoy, to your point, the outside, the warmth. Now that it's spring, it's really nice and lovely outside. And I'm looking up. I kept hearing like, look up, look up. So I look up at the sky and it's turning from, you know, what is it, into like that dusk.

Is that dusk? Is it when it's getting nighttime? Yeah. Okay. Dawn to dusk. Yeah. So it's dusk. And so I'm looking up and there's a ton of birds because there's different variety of trees on my property and everything. And I see this really peculiar thing like flying around. Like, what is that? That doesn't look like a bird. What kind of bird is it? And I realize it's a bat. And then there's not one, but there's two. Yeah. I had had a feeling that...

that it wasn't a bird in my house that, you know, those few days that it was in and it was flying around because it was really silent. I didn't see it during the day at all. I went hunting for it, not to hurt it, but like to find it and make sure it was okay, that sort of thing. And it was just really hard to find it. And so I thought that was really strange. And so I had this inkling that it was a bat. But anyway, yeah, so apparently I have bats also on my property. And

which, you know, I looked it up, the spiritual symbology and everything, and it means transformation. It can also mean protection, depending on what culture you look up and everything. Whether it's on your property and it's outside or it's inside, it has, you know, all those symbolic meanings and messages. But really the one that resonated with me the most was transformation. So, and I can't remember, I'll have to go back and see when the quote unquote bird, now that I know it was a bat, was.

was in my house because I think it was around the time that I had made the decision to officially leave my full-time job. And so looking back now again, it is definitely the sign of transformation, change, protection, guidance, moving forward. So I wanted to share that, that it was an actual back. Yeah.

Did you get it out of the house?

And I was doing that during the day. And I was, again, wondered why it wasn't leaving. It would hear its bird friends chirping outside and leave. And I ended up having to do it at like 11 p.m. or 12 a.m. or something like that, where I left. I saw it flying at night.

again and then I was like okay this sucker's here in the evening so I'm going to open up the door now and then that's when it finally flew out so anyway it always brings out the masculine part of me when you see a bat in a house like wow where is it the thing that again was so creepy about it was that it wasn't you know I guess I was expecting it to chirp or to hear even the wings flutter you know

And because I never did, that was the part. But yeah, it really scared me in the sense that I couldn't see its beak. I couldn't, you know, and again, in hindsight, now I know what it is. But yeah, yeah. And Bodhi, my cat, God love him. He was like really being a protector and he was running up and down the stairs and trying to get it and stuff and never did catch that bat, thank goodness. Because, you know, I love all creatures, but yeah.

But I'm glad it's back with its bat friends and it's now out of my house. And I always wanted some. Now I guess I know I just hope that they're not in somewhere in the eaves of the house, you know. So I'm going to look into getting maybe a bat house and putting it on the side of the garage slash barn. And they're really good for the environment. You could get a cave.

Back cave. Sorry. Scott's jokes. But anyway, yeah. So that's all that's going on. I finally figured out what that was. And yeah, I think I'm feeling good about the transition and yeah,

not having the full-time, you know, eight to six job that I usually do during the day and really looking forward to building up more things for Psychic Story, including the membership where everyone can come and join on a weekly basis where we have live calls and

And we can connect through community that way and building out more courses and workshops, which I've never been able to really offer before. And one thing I wanted to ask you, and we can talk offline about this too, is if at some point we want to revisit the Looking for Angels stuff in the book, maybe you can join a future call or something. Sure. Yeah, absolutely. Putting you on the spot and not asking you before. Yeah, sure.

No, I'd be happy to. And yeah, I've been hearing and talking with you about this for these things that you'd like to do if you had time. And, you know, we can't because of the job and this and that. And now here it is. And it's just so exciting. I can't wait to see how it unfolds.

for you and the many people that are going to take part of that. Yeah. Yeah. And I feel really grateful because it'll really allow me to be present more and not that I wasn't present before, but I always felt as if I was going to the next thing, you know, have to have this done, have to do this and getting things. Yeah. And in getting things done, but not really feeling like I could dive all into one particular thing. So now this gives me the time in order to do so. And you've been part of the journey. So thank you for your support over the

the last couple of years. All right. Are we ready to get into some listener stories? Yes, we are. So this, we have a theme this time. It's signs at the right times. And the first email submitted by Tanya M with the subject, it's beautiful here. I'm not really sure how to start my story. My parents did not raise my brothers and me. Tim is one year older than me and Tommy is one and a half years younger than me.

While in the care of Child Protective Services, we were placed with my father's family members. Unfortunately, we did not all get to stay together. My older brother Tim and I were sent to live with our uncle, and Tommy was sent to live with our aunt.

Being only three and four years old, Tim and I were inseparable. Our uncle and his wife were alcoholics and were very abusive to Tim and me. Tim always tried to protect me and we were extremely close. When we were 15 and 16 years old, we were placed back in foster care due to physical abuse.

We remained close throughout our adult lives. When Tim was 44 years old, he was diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. The doctors thought that because he was so young, he would be able to beat the cancer. But on January 7th, 2019, he passed away at the age of 45.

I was completely devastated. To me, it was like losing everything. I cried all the time. I talked to him all the time, asking for a sign that he was okay. One night, after crying myself to sleep, he came to me. He looked healthy and happy, and we were sitting on top of a hill. Everything was so beautiful. The sky was bright blue with fluffy white clouds, and the grass was green and perfect.

There were children playing and laughing, and it was the most peaceful feeling I ever experienced. He looked at me and said, I'm okay. Look how beautiful it is here. I'm no longer in pain. After that, I stopped having nightmares of his suffering. I still speak to him all the time, and I feel his presence. Sometimes I have this feeling of peace out of nowhere come over my entire body, and I know he's right here beside me.

That's beautiful. I mean, not obviously what they experienced and what they went through when they were children, but that they were able to have such a close bond. And then also that he was able to let her know that he was okay on the other side. And I also, what stood out to me is the fact that she has this feeling of peace that comes over her and then her entire body and she knows he's right there beside me.

Not everyone on my loved ones on the other side let me know that they're okay or that they're there through presence, but it is a very common thing for people to experience their loved ones really showing up through that, you know, awareness that they're there. And it's what I've talked about before on the podcast called a heart hug. I feel like our loved ones give us that feeling of love and peace from the inside out.

So it's beautiful that he was able to connect with her and also let her know, like I said, that he's okay and giving her that comfort, you know? Yeah. Yeah. And, you know, the critics and skeptics would say, well, it was just a wish. You know, she wished that and, you know, her mind just created that as a release valve, you know, for her pain. But, you know, you have to either...

go that route or you go the other route to say it was him. It was, it felt like it certainly to her, it was very detailed and colors, right? The big thing. We don't dream in color, but here, you know, bright blue skies and, you know, a nice scene there that she experienced with him.

and that he did answer her request to come and visit. A friend of mine has lost a dear brother. I think I mentioned this once before. She lost her dear brother from cancer, and she said, oh, I just long to have something from him, a sign of his presence. And I said, well, just ask.

And so then I saw her a couple of weeks later. I said, so did you ask to see him? And she goes, oh, I don't want to bother him. I'm like, what? You're not bothering him. I mean, first of all, he's outside of time. So he has things he's able to do this. But her husband said that they got a desk, an old fashioned desk from his house and have it in their house now. And he says, well,

I don't know what to say, but that desk, when no one's walking around, makes creaking sounds and there's something going on with that desk. Well, maybe that's him. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, no. And I was going to add too, I'm so glad you did as well, but asking and talking to our loved ones or our spirit team members is exactly, you know, a way to get their attention and to talk with them and to communicate, obviously. And to do, when you do it more often than not, that definitely helps, I feel like, pull the messages, the communication through. And you also made a comment that I wanted to ask. So do you not dream in color? No.

Well, that's the big debate for years. It was like people saying, you know, psychologists say, well, people don't dream in color.

But I always knew I did. Yeah. I dream in color, too. And I don't know where, you know, like, plus, how can you say that? You know, how can you, you know, prove that or whatever? Either way, you know, when they say people don't. But I don't know. That was just, it was a pet peeve of mine from 20 years ago. It was like, you know, no, I dream in color all the time. Yeah. Well, I found it curious when I was younger. I don't know how it came up. So anyone listening, ask your friends, your family, other people. But

I found it really interesting that not everybody dreamt in color. So a lot of my friends would say either they didn't dream or if they did, they would be like, wait, you dream in color? I only dream in black and white. So I always found that to be fascinating about how kind of similar to that not everybody can visualize in their mind's eye or smell certain things. Like you can't necessarily smell rain, you know, some people. So anyway, it's cool to hear how different people experience different things. I had this one dream.

recently where I used to have dreams where I could taste and touch, but it's been quite a while and even smell almost like I was physically there. And this one dream in particular, I could feel someone like holding my hand and squeezing it to the point where they squeezed it really hard to be like, I'm here. And then I woke up. So that was a really cool, my dreams have been getting a lot more vivid lately. But anyway, I say that because I feel like when to your point about when you're

getting a message or you especially are having a dream and an experience or a meditation with a loved one, the more vivid it is and how that comes through can also indicate that you are having a dream that's not necessarily just a dream, but it's more where you're connecting with someone from the other side. And I was talking with a friend of mine last year and talking about

communicating with people who have passed. And I said, why is it easy sometimes and harder other times? And some people want to connect, but they can't. And he said, I don't know if it's true or not. He said, it's like if you had a friend in London,

And you can have a Zoom call or call them on the phone versus driving to the airport, getting on a plane, flying over and then having more of a personal, even visual interaction with them.

And he just said, that's how it is. I'm like, oh, well, it makes sense, you know, that there might be some things that, you know, to match our vibrations, to, you know, go through the veil might be hard to do. And I think you even mentioned once that people have passed, have to figure out how to communicate with those in the 3D world and they may need some help. Yeah, it's almost, I'll,

The way that your friend explained that, that's a really neat explanation and way to look at it because there's a lot of conditions that need to be right in order for it to happen. Like even when you were bringing up the Zoom, sometimes the Zoom connection goes in and out, you know, or the line's down. So, or the plane's delayed type of thing. So, that's a really good way of looking at it. All right. Well, next up, this email was submitted by Belinda N. with the subject, Her Name Was Maria. Yeah.

I've been trying to tap into my intuition and connect, and I'm only at the beginning stages of my learning. One morning, I happened to be listening to your podcast about connecting with your spirit team and knowing who is on your team, so I decided to do just that. I called upon my spirit team and asked that they present themselves by name. I said, I need to know who surrounds me and what your name is. I want to see it in black and white.

I work in human resources and later that week I participated as a panel member in an interview. I had done so many interviews by this stage that I hadn't bothered reading any of the applicants resumes.

Well, that's interesting. That's good to know. Okay. Anyway, back to the story. One applicant took me by surprise. I had asked her a question, and as she began to respond, she was animated and was using her hands. Not so much that it would distract you, but it was at that moment that her watch came completely undone, bounced across the table, and fell to the floor. I was completely surprised by how that happened.

While she was collecting her watch from the floor, I looked down at my paperwork and noticed her name. Her name was Maria, my grandmother's name. I smiled knowing that it was my grandmother. While the candidate didn't get the job, I took notice of her. A few weeks later, my son was having a tonsillectomy, and I was anxious for him and his recovery. He previously told me he wanted a Fitbit watch, so I planned to purchase one for him and give it to him as he woke from his surgery.

After work, I drove to a shopping center that was not my usual place to shop because they happen to have the watch in stock. Then, with my watch in hand, I headed over to pick up some extra Tylenol for his recovery. As I walked in, I was surprised to see that the sales clerk name tag was Maria. Was that my grandmother letting me know that she was with me? Coincidentally, I happened to be buying a watch, but bumping into Maria gave me so much relief to know my grandmother was watching over me and my son.

Now, that's a sign, you know, like, how can, you know, again, on the critical side, well, it was all coincidence. Not all those, you know, within a short period of time, too, came out, you know, came through. And then, you know, that's the other thing. It strikes you, you know, when you see the name Maria, when she was looking, it kind of hits you, like, in your heart, like,

Yeah, there's something more than coincidence here. Yeah, it's kind of like I've used the example before where let's say you go and you purchase a car and you never really made note of that model or that type of car in particular. And then once you purchase it, you see it on the road all the time and you're like, whoa, there's a lot more than I thought. Well, that's also because you're paying attention to it. So in this case, though, she asked for a name.

And she said she wanted to see it in black and white. There was something that happened. Literally, the watch kind of bounced. And then I find it really cool that there was the tie into the Fitbit watch, too. So it's not only that she saw the name of the candidate, the name of the sales clerk. There was a watch in both instances to kind of tie it together and to connect those dots and those pieces. And the reason I was bringing up the car is that

Now, when Maria, the name stands out to her in some way and she feels that she knows that, then that's also going to be a sign and an indication that that was her grandmother. So I think absolutely to answer her question, that was her grandmother, not only letting her know that she was with her, but that during a time where she was really nervous, especially about her son and his recovery, that she was there. So really cool. Yeah. I heard a story once years ago about people, they wanted to have a sign that they were looking for

to buy a house and they wanted to see a sign. And the sign was like hippopotamus or something like that. Like, give us a sign of a hippopotamus if this is the right house. So they go in the house. They don't see anything. They don't see any painting, nothing. And then they start going through drawers and desks and looking in closets for the sign. And they were like- Wasn't this in our book? It's ringing true to me somehow or familiar. Was it not? Okay, nevermind. Continue. No.

No, I may have mentioned this before, but I was like, I don't know if that's what you need. To me, signs come at you. You don't go hunting for them. Yeah, and I think they found one, like a sketch of a hippopotamus on a napkin in the bottom drawer of something. I don't know. It just seemed to be a little desperate, I guess. You really want this house. Just say you want to buy the house. You don't have to make up stuff.

Yeah, no. Well, that is definitely. Have you ever had a sign like that? Like the name or something? I know your mom showed up at some point with like a book, if I recall correctly. Well, my former wrestling coach, Bob, I had asked, you know, I got that connection with his voice, you know, in my car saying, yeah, we went, you know, we were at that restaurant.

And then I had a, uh, a Kaushik record reading and the, the woman said that, that Bob was there. And he said to tell her, he told her to tell me that he had a picture of him and I in his, uh, house where his, you know, his wife was still living. And he said, ask her for a picture of that and that, uh, of me and him.

And hopefully she would get that to me. And he said, thank you so much for keeping my name alive. That was his message. And so I thought like, that's interesting that he would want, you know, like have that desire to like keep, you know, keep my name alive, which is, you know, fine. It's great. He's a great person. I just asked the reader, I said, so he wants me to say those words to his wife that, you know, Bob says, hi, you know, and like, I don't know if I want to do that. I mean, it might get her upset. I mean,

It was years later after he passed. But anyway, I chickened out. I didn't say that.

Maybe I should, but... Well, if she listens to the podcast, she'll find out now. Yes, that's right. All right. So you got the next one? Okay. Yeah. So this story is a voicemail from Amber with the subject asking for specific signs. Hey, Nicole. My name is Amber. And I just want to say how much I enjoy your podcast. I have been on this crazy...

spiritual journey. Started with yoga back in 2013 and now I'm really starting to get into these abilities that I've always had

always thought they were cool, but never really thought a whole lot about them. But now I'm really interested. I just found the Akashic Records a couple years ago. So I'm an Akashic Records practitioner. And I'm really wanting to hone in on my channeling and psychic abilities. And just listening to your channel is super, super helpful. But

I was just listening to the episode with you and Samantha Faye, and you guys were talking about how music sometimes comes through as a sign, and she's like, well, unless you're in the grocery store, that's not it. And I actually had an incident, and I really wanted to tell you about it, and I've been

meaning to reach out to you because I have so many stories about signs from my spirit guides that I've been wanting to share with you. And I have two that I want to share with you today. So the one about the grocery store, I was asking my spirit guides for chicks. And about two or three weeks went by and I was like, all right, I'm not seeing any chicks anywhere. I said, well, maybe I need to specify. So I was like,

Spirit, I want to see chickens. Baby chickens.

And so three days later, I'm in this department store and I'm walking around in the gardening section. And I just happened to look up and this girl of about 11 or 12 walks by me and she's got this shirt on with three giant baby chickens on it. And she walks by and I started jumping up and down. I was like, oh, I saw it, I saw it, I saw it. And she kind of peeks around the corner of this like stand that's, you know, in the store. And she kind of, you know, cockeyed and awed.

On the radio, I kid you not, was, I saw the signs. I opened up my eyes. I saw the signs. And I just cracked up. I was like, oh my gosh, thank you. My spirit guides are, they have a very good sense of humor. And so another time, and this one just blew me away. So I was asking a spirit if it's time for me to move forward and start working on honing on my psychic abilities, honing in on them.

And I said, so here's what I want to see. I want to see my birthday, but I don't want to see it as a time. I don't want to see it on my phone. And so the numbers are 523. So my husband and I, a couple days later, were driving from North Carolina up to Philly.

And I just happened to gaze over to the left and I see this billboard. And the only thing I saw on the billboard, and I couldn't miss it because they were gigantic and bright red. It was a phone number. And the first three numbers were 523. I was like, awesome. I see you. Thank you.

And then the couple of nights later, we're watching TV and an apartment door flashes by and the number on the apartment door was 523. And I said, thank you. This is awesome. And

the best part about this, Nicole, I was on my computer and I was purchasing something and I was using PayPal. And you know how they give you the verification numbers, like they text it to you and you have to type it in? Well, they did that and I type it in and it says, no, that's wrong. And I was like, how can it be wrong? So I'm dyslexic and I check my numbers. I quadruple check them because I always get them wrong. And I

I look at the number I put in and the number I put in starts with 523. And the number was something like 856 or something. It was nuts. But the weird thing was is that PayPal sent me another verification code, which normally doesn't happen.

And the verification code started with 523. And I was like, all right, I'm going to do it. So I have been doing that and I just absolutely love it. One of my favorite things to do is ask Spirit for signs. And I've been meaning to reach out to you because I know that you talk about this a lot and

And it does take time sometimes. Sometimes it's immediately and sometimes you just got to wait and be patient and, you know, maybe ask again.

So thank you so much for this platform. And I just enjoy everything that you do. And maybe I'll call back with another story because I have a really incredible angel story. At least I believe he was an angel. And I think it saved our lives. So I'll call back another time with that one. But for now, I'm so grateful for you. Thank you and have a great day.

Her guides certainly do have a sense of humor. I love that. That's so fun. And now I'm not going to be able to get that song out of my head. You know which one she's talking about, right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. I was going to say, good. Don't make me sing it.

No. How does it go? No. Again? I'm not going to do it now. You missed your opportunity. Yeah. Well, the first thing I thought of was that all through high school, me and my friends asked to see chicks. Oh, gosh. We were not successful. When she first said that, I was wondering if that was...

chickens like baby chicks. And then I was almost expecting that girl to be holding baby chicks because, you know, when you're in garden centers, you can bring in pets and stuff. But I think it's really neat that it was through the t-shirt. And then if she was even questioning or doubting it, then the song coming on was even further confirmation and validation that she received the sign that she was looking for. I was impressed that she was just so bold.

Like, I want to see chicks. You know, and no reason. No, like, help me. I need this to get by. Well, they say that have it be either random or really, really specific, you know. And then she did that even with the second one. No, I want to see my birthday, but it can't be on my phone. It can't be these things. And then it happened not just once, not twice, but three times. And because I feel like her specificity of it, that's also what made it, again, the details that came through and really giving her that clarity.

that sign that she was looking for. Yep. And so here's the story that I mentioned earlier. This is kind of a fun thing and it happened this week. So I was getting, you know, kind of going, I was sending you the materials for today. Like, okay, it's about signs. And I thought maybe it'd be kind of cool if I said that, that, you know, Oh, I looked for a sign. I asked for a sign and I got it. And then I'm like something really random. I don't make drafts. And I'm like, I don't know. It probably won't happen. Like, forget about it. Did you say drafts?

Giraffes, yes. Okay, yeah. I just want to make sure I'm tracking. And so I just... They're that stupid. I forget. It's all... Maybe five seconds of thought goes into this. So we're watching... A friend of ours is out of town and she has four dogs that... Ranging from three months to 12 years old. And it's like...

It's like chaos, organized chaos when you go to their house. The young dog isn't even house trained. It's nutty. So you go into her house and there's toys everywhere, all kinds of, all types of toys. And the dogs are running all over the place. And I was just about ready to get them out. And the three-month-old dog comes up with a stuffed animal in his mouth. And it's a giraffe. I was going to say, it's a giraffe. How funny. I'll put it back on.

It's like, wow, they're listening. It's like Siri. It's like listening and you don't know they're listening. But yeah, that was my kind of a fun thing on that. And the big thing is we don't ask. For me, I see it in myself all the time. I just don't ask for things. I just go through. It's like the macho thing. You never ask for directions. Maybe as individuals, we feel like we have to make it on our own to prove something.

but you just ask and it's even for the you know things that don't make sense you don't have to have a need but or you may just want to feel their presence you know for years I would just ask to feel my my mom and dad's presence and then now it's kind of constant but I remember you

You know, I asked and then I would get kind of like she said, or it was in the first story about getting a feeling, a warm emotional feeling. And you recognize that as mom and dad. They just come. But yeah, we can't forget to ask. Yeah. And Amber, definitely please do send in that angel story because we'd love to hear it.

want to say thank you for submitting. I have a quick one too that I wanted to share. I forgot I was going to mention this, but this is probably the perfect part to do it. So this morning I decided to go to get some coffee because I ran out and I was like, okay, preparing for this. I need my coffee. Make sure that I

I'm present and I'm alert during the recording. And so I've been having a lot of tech glitches lately with my energy. And I also think it's the planets and everything else in between too. But I get in the car and my phone starts glitching. And all of a sudden, the phone turns the actual radio on. And then without me doing anything, it...

It changes from the radio, which is really hard to do because you have to hit like a button, like a physical button to go from radio to the media part that connects your phone and plays through. And it starts playing my iTunes and it's a song. And it's a song you and I had shared. Not I saw the sign, but it's a song that we had shared after my dog Mia had passed away a few years ago. And if you recall, when I got in the car and I was heading to my parents because they had also had to put their dog down.

And it was by Lone Star. And right when that song started playing, I just started bawling because it was a beautiful sunny day. Her birthday earlier this month in April. And I'm going to just share this too, if anyone that is looking for this. It's the chorus. It says, I'm already there. Take a look around. I'm the sunshine in your hair. I'm the shadow on the ground. I'm the whisper in the wind and I'll be there till the end.

Oh, that's a beautiful message. And that's it. I mean, you know, they're all around us all the time, you know, and that's we need to

Just be aware of that and reach out when we need to. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, I thought I was like, oh, my gosh, Mia's here because I haven't felt her around lately. But anyway, that's another way that it's so through song, you know, and how it plays. And also that I wasn't intentionally clicking any buttons. It turned on and I thought it was so amazing. So anyway, thanks again, Amber. All right. So this story is a voicemail from Sarah with the subject Lighthouse Sign.

Hi, Nicole. I'm a huge fan. My name's Sarah. I've been listening for a long time. I'm calling in with a story about my grandma. A couple of years ago, my family and I were going through some big life changes. We were thinking about moving. I'd never lived...

anywhere other than the city and we were looking at moving to the country and I just had a lot of anxiety around it. We weren't sure

where in the, you know, out in the country we were going to move. There were different locations. It was very up in the air and I was very unsure about it and was kind of having trouble moving forward. I wasn't sure if it was the right choice yet. And my grandmother was always the person who I would talk to about that sort of thing. But she passed about 10 years ago. And

One day I was driving and I felt like she was, like her presence was to my left side. And I just felt it very strong. And it was when I was like thinking about what are we going to, you know, what am I going to do? Is this the right move?

And I felt her there and I felt like I needed to acknowledge her and ask her, you know, like, you know, I was asking for her to give me strength and confidence in myself.

the decision-making process, and also I felt kind of crazy. So I was like, if this really is you, show me a sign. And then I thought to myself, well, what sign? Like, what is something that I wouldn't normally see? And a lighthouse popped into my head. And so I was like, if this is you that I'm feeling, show me a lighthouse sign.

And right then, the light turned red and I stopped and the very next car that pulled up next to me at the light had a license plate that had a lighthouse on it. And I could not believe it. So it was a great feeling and I still think about it all the time. And I just wanted to share.

Thanks so much. Yeah, this goes back to you mentioning ask and you shall receive for this. And then this sign for her was much more emotionally charged. You know, it wasn't just like, show me ticks or show me this. But it was like she was really looking and searching. And for her, you know, that's what was needed. And certainly when she saw it, I think it validated all her doubts, you know, about that. Yeah.

Absolutely. And the fact, too, that she goes back to it and she thinks about it often also shows that it meant so much to her, wanting that, you know, that connection, receiving that sign at the right moment. It's amazing also that it was right after, like immediately after she got that. And it was random thought of it. And then, boom, it's right there. Yeah. Yeah.

Two things. One is that I think at some point in time, we probably won't need signs. You know, you'll just be, you'll just be so connected in our lives that we'll feel that connection and we don't need the external validation anymore.

But in between here and then, you know, it's fine to ask. It's, you know, it's no skin off of anybody to, you know, to, you know, get assigned to us, you know, whenever we need it or just for fun. You know, it seems like that.

And then I was thinking, and this was brought to my mind, about separation. The reason why we feel detached from the spirit world is because we are living, we chose to incarnate into a 3D environment where things are separate, everything's separate. I'm me, you're you.

you know, religion has us, you know, God out there somewhere. And that once we leave this physical reality, then, you know, everything's going to be like right there. You know, our parents, our loved ones, you know, everything's going to be there. We'll be more connected emotionally, telepathically, you know, it's, and that's part of the awakening that's occurring is that that veil is thinning and people are experiencing that more. But certainly when we leave this physical world and

go in the in-between worlds to incarnate next is that we'll kind of be exposed to all those things, you know. But for now, it's very helpful to have signs and little breadcrumbs along the way at times, you know, to confirm our path or to confirm that we're loved or whatever it may be.

Yeah. And I think the illusion of the separateness is what, you know, some people struggle with. And you're right. The signs are also a reminder that we are actually connected more so in ways than we don't always necessarily realize or feel or know or experience. So there's that too. Yeah. It points out the illusion. Exactly. And then I believe I've shared this before a few times, but just really quickly too. When

I did not write this in the book because it came after. You know, it was like this channeled message from my guides and angels. And they were saying, think of it like when you're receiving signs from the universe, it's almost like you're in kindergarten or first grade. You're learning the alphabet A to Z.

how letters are strung together in words, how words form sentences, and you're learning the language, regardless of if your language is English or what have you, you're learning that way of communication. And so signs, whether they're repeating numbers or things we ask for from the universe, and we're basically asking God, universe, source, and our spirit team to customize and work with us to receive messages in ways that we communicate as humans and also what we want to receive. So thinking about that, to your point, though, about communication,

Eventually, we don't necessarily need the signs if we're really tapped into who we are and feeling that connectedness and that state of oneness. That's the, I won't say graduation, but that's the evolution of our soul's growth and journey. And so, yeah, so I don't really like you ask for signs, not because I want to bother anyone or it's a macho thing. It's more of,

I feel that I'm communicating more often. So when like with the instance with Mia in the car, it was almost as if, hey, I'm here. You haven't been talking to me in a while. Like just know that I'm here and support. So I'm sharing that with listeners too, because no matter where you are in your journey and whatever step that is, there are always tools and resources and your loved ones and your spirit team want to communicate with you. So.

But as always, thank you to everyone for listening and submitting stories. And we're always looking for stories and would love to hear yours. Please send those in if you feel led. And Scott and I mentioned a while back that he's still going to be joining on the listener episodes and things of that nature. In the future, we're also going to be switching it up a little bit and have different people that are on as guests that are partaking in this and sharing and reading stories.

stories along with me and alongside me. So don't want you to be surprised if you hear a future episode and Scott's not here. He still is. But like I said, we're giving other people opportunity to weigh in and partake in the podcast. And that was Scott's idea. So wanted to mention that too. So anything else, Scott, before we sign off that you wanted to share?

No, that's it. These stories just re-emphasize to me that we are surrounded by a host of witnesses and spirits to how God's source is totally involved with our lives and always has been. And it's just a matter of us reaching out and asking when we need help or when we just need confirmation or whatever it may be, that spirit is always here.

Yes. Well, thank you. Thanks, everyone. And see you soon.
