Changing the Future Through the Akashic Records, w/Lindsay Price
2026/03/27
Do you ever imagine yourself as a world-class acrylic painter, and then wonder why your art projects fall short of your vision?
Maybe painting is a skill you had in a previous life—and your soul remembers.
This week’s guest, Lindsay Price, uses the Akashic Records, among other modalities, to help women and men access their gifts, and bring learnings from other lifetimes into the present.
We begin with the basics of what the Akashic Records are, and then go deep!
If you’ve ever wondered if your favorite fantasy worlds are real, or are a writer who’s healed through your protagonist’s journey, this one is for you!
Some highlights:
How the Akashic Records allow you to see both past and future lives, and how that helps you move through present-day challengesLindsay’s unique way of live-channeling the Akashic Records to show clients’ their past lives Are mermaids real? And other sci-fi and fantasy elementsIt doesn’t have to be that way—how taking a peek into your soul’s journey can help you see the wide array of trajectories you could take todayLindsay’s work empowering women and helping them remember lifetimes in matriarchies, and how each of us is downloading gifts and skills to support the collective shift into a more harmonious society Connect with Lindsay:

The Future is Telepathic (and it’s already here!), w/Fenix Grace
2026/03/13
If you’ve ever thought about a friend, only to see they just texted you—congratulations, you’re telepathic!
I’m honored to have Fenix Grace, a psychic, writer, and intuitive development teacher on the podcast to talk about telepathy and intuitive societies.
Spoiler: Everyone is intuitive and we already live in an intuitive society, but as Fenix explains, our current culture just doesn’t validate intuition.
This is an incredible conversation that lays groundwork for the world we want to live in, through both insights and imagination. If you’re ready to create the new world, this one’s for you!
Some highlights:
Feminine energy as creation versus reception The two telepathic channels in your faceUnderstanding that self-hatred thoughts are actually not your own How an intuitive society would actually function, and how collective intuition would change how we think about privacy Ways to make life lighter and more fun by living intuitively, today

How Egg Laying Could Be the Future of Childbirth
2026/03/06
Picture this: You live in Central America, and you start hearing the women up in North America are not having live births anymore … but are laying eggs.
The stuff of sci-fi?
Maybe! But in this interview with undergraduate biologist and neuroscientist Ginger Lee Owens, we learn about humanity’s own history with laying eggs and species that have responded to environmental changes by adapting childbirth.
Some highlights:
Why a single animal species concurrently has egg laying and live birthsHow we could genetically hack humans to switch to laying eggs, and why proximity to water mattersPotential environmental causes for an evolutionary shift away from live births Ways our culture could benefit from multigenerational spaces, and evidence of the value of elder wisdom Read Ginger Lee’s blog post “When KNEW meets NEW” on the Northwest Noggin blog here: https://nwnoggin.org/2025/11/21/when-knew-meets-new/

Exploring Flower Remedies as the Future of Medicine, w/ Anna Cantwell
2026/02/27
In ancient stories, the plants themselves told humans which of them was safe to eat. Lucky for us, they still talk.
I’m joined by spiritual coach Anna Cantwell to explore our favorite healing modality that not enough people know about:
Flower remedies.
Some highlights:
How Anna’s mentors passed down wisdom on how to work with flowers as energy medicineThe gentle but palpable experience of using flower remedies to ease migraines, protect your energy, make more money, or find love How Anna uses intuition to forage, make, and name flower remedies for her collection, Wild Plenty The single healthcare segment that can’t be addressed by flower remedies alone

How Writing a Novel Can Surface Repressed Memories
2025/10/15
TW: sexual assault and child sexual assault
Fiction writing comes from our subconscious, where our imagination is. And guess what else is in there? Trauma!
I teach writing students and coaching clients that a book idea comes to you because of something it wants to heal in your subconscious through the writing process. In this episode, it's my turn to share, very vulnerably, about how I know this to be true.
My novel, Sister Earth, was based on a dream and the plot centers around a dream. The plot also features a repressed memory, but while I was writing, I attributed it to a friend's anecdote. A year after writing the novel, I discovered in an energy healing session that I, too, have a repressed memory. I didn't know I was writing an allegory to my own childhood trauma.
The good news: When we write, we heal.
Bookmark this episode for a time you're ready to go deep as hearing personal stories tends to activate healing in the listener.
If you've got an intuitive nudge to write a book, record a podcast, or to otherwise tell your story for your own healing, I'm here for you.

Why I Decided to Self-Publish My Debut Novel on My 40th Birthday
2025/09/18
For many years, I had my heart set on getting a book deal with a Big 5 publisher. In fact, I began practicing manifestation specifically so I could manifest a book deal.
But last summer, I changed my mind, and put things in motion to publish my debut novel on my birthday.
In this episode, I’m going to go over the reasons, including:
✩ Diminishing returns of traditional publishing
✩ Why you're more likely to reach 6 figures as an indie author
✩ How astrology predicts a shift in power from traditional publishing to self-governing groups
✩ Making sense of manifestation breakthroughs and intuitive readings about my writing career
If you are exploring your own path to publishing, I hope this is helpful!

Reiki for Rescue Animals & Pet Mediumship with Viva Animal Sanctuary
2024/07/05
What would change if everyone knew animals have souls, just like we do? This week we explore beyond our domestic pets and learn about the unique approach to animal welfare at Viva Rescue, a 501(3)(c) nonprofit.
Maya Benperlas, cofounder of Viva, shares the origin of the animal sanctuary, her background with equine-assisted therapy and horse rescues, how volunteers support the work, and the innovative veterinary care and holistic modalities used to give rescue animals their best lives.
Nora Armbruster, a reiki master and animal communicator who offers services at the sanctuary every week, shares her discovery of her own psychic abilities, the variety of souls and personalities she encounters through client and Viva sessions, and how pet reiki and mediumship can be a powerful support through pet loss and transition.
At the end of the episode, we get to experience a live animal communication session as Nora tunes in to Bambi, who transitioned a few weeks ago, and eagerly shares messages with her person, Dani.
In this episode:
2:34 - Maya’s work at Viva Rescue
20:45 - Nora’s career change into animal communication, and collaborations with Viva
44:32 - Mini animal communication “in spirit” session with Bambi, Dani’s chihuahua who recently transitioned

Roundtable: Finding Lost Pets, Past-Life Bonds, and Dog Body Language
2024/06/28
Searching for a lost pet is up there among the most stressful and emotional situations a pet parent can face. If you take away one thing from this week’s episode, let it be that this doesn’t have to be the end.
In this roundtable episode, we talk to three individuals who have intuitively connected with their pets in vastly different ways: through a communicator to locate a lost cat, through plant medicine (exposing a past life connection!), and by learning to read body language via a talented dog trainer. It turns out, the way we listen to our pets also mirrors the way we listen to our own inner voice.
We’re close to wrapping up “Spirit Doggies,” our season on intuitive animal communication. My mind has been blown by stories of what’s possible when we learn to tune into our furry friends, whether they’re our pets, wild animals, or so-called household pests. Thanks for joining be and stay tuned for what’s coming next!
In this episode:
How a pet psychic directed Allissa C. directly to her lost cat
Grief and the past life connection that Alyssa L.’s dog came to heal
The differences between working with an animal communicator and a pet trainer
Intuition as an inner voice vs. a download
How each of the guests reconnected with their intuition after shutting it down in childhood, and how it impacts parenting, relationships, and more

Dogs, Karma, and Reincarnation w/ Morgan Balavage, spiritual coach
2024/06/21
Dogs come into our lives at the right time, and for a reason. The true extent of that karmic bond might be more than we currently comprehend. The practical uses of animal communication include finding lost pets, learning a rescue dog’s backstory, context for trauma healing, and perhaps a way to deal with household pests (!), but on a more spiritual level, our dogs are actually guardians and partners on our soul journey.
Our guest Morgan Balavage is a business coach, yoga teacher, manifestation expert, fellow teacher on the Insight Timer app, one of the most highly trained and skilled individuals I've encountered in mindfulness and spirituality.
In this episode:
How relationships with dogs can help us better relate to humans
Using animal communication to find lost pets
Morgan’s adoption story of Spike (this gave me chills!)
Morgan and Spike go to Mexico, transmute karma, encounter scorpions, rattlesnakes, and more
Highly practical use of animal communication as antidote to arachnophobia
Morgan’s profound childhood experience with meditation, early intuitive skills, and past life memories
How Spike interacts with Morgan’s clients in healing sessions

How Animal Communication Works! w/ animal communicator Renée Vos de Wael
2024/05/17
Believe it or not, you’re already communicating with your pet. Every animal communicator I’ve met emphasizes that this is a skill everyone has, and can develop with practice. It might help to compare it to a language, but instead of just words, the elements include images, physical sensations, and emotions. This episode gives a peek behind-the-scenes.
Our guest Renée Vos de Wael is a deeply experienced animal communicator with international clientele, she's the founder of Sagittarius Way, a platform that helps animal owners develop profound connections with their pets, as well as 1:1 sessions she offers courses, guided meditations, a live session on the Insight Timer meditation app and a reiki animal circle every week.
In this episode:
Renee’s intuition backstory
How a horse got a new name
The language of animal communication—an insider look at how it works!
The common questions people ask their animals, and what your pet wants for you
How reiki can support animals with pain
A quick definition of what reiki is
Why we need to slow down to hear our pets
Tips before your first animal communication session
