Spirit Guides, Intuition and Growing Our Connection with Natalie Miles

1/24/2019
Do you consider yourself intuitive? I sure didn't. I believed intuition was for other lucky people and was never something that I could hone and practice. Boy was I wrong! I have since learned that our intuition is within us all, we just need to learn how to access it and trust it. And this is what my guest Natalie Miles and I speak about in today's episode. Natalie Miles is a Spiritual Mentor, Psychic Medium & host of the So You Think You’re Intuitive podcast. However, Natalie is not the typical psychic medium. It is her life’s mission and soul calling to inspire people across the globe to connect with their own intuition, so they can feel more connected and help themselves, each and every day. She believes that everyone is born intuitive, but most people have forgotten how to use their natural gifts. Natalie has been guided by Spirit to be “the door opener” and reactivate people with their intuition so they can live their most authentic life.

Who do you want to become?

1/3/2019
#015 - It's a new year, which for many of us means a new start. Goals are set and we bring in the new year with a ton of motivation...only to have the momentum dwindle 2 weeks later. The reason why so many resolutions fail is that we try to change our outer world before we change our inner world. We don't succeed because we don't believe that we can. And therefore our thoughts don't align with the actions we need to take to achieve what we want. So how can we change a belief? In this episode I talk about how to change our beliefs by trying something new...called the embodiment experiment.

How To Let Go and Get In The Flow

12/27/2018
# 014 - It's the end of the year! Which means that this is the time where many of us start reflecting on the year that has passed and we start thinking about what we want to accomplish in the New Year. The end of the year is a wonderful time to shed what no longer serves us, because it's the only way for us to get exactly what we want in the upcoming year. We need to let go of old thoughts, behaviours and energy patterns in order to make space to let in something new. But change is hard and we so often start off the year with a bang, but we haven't done the inner work to make sure our goals and dreams come to fruition. In this solo episode I talk about the different steps needed to fully let go so we can step into an amazing version of ourselves and make 2019 one to remember.

How to shift your perception

12/6/2018
So today I’m doing a solo episode again because life happened. My father had a horrible fall. He fell down an elevator shaft and landed on his left side. He broke some ribs, his shoulder and shattered his elbow! Fortunately, he was able to receive the help he needed. It could've been so much worse. My father's accident reminded me about the importance of perspective. After all, what we focus on becomes our reality. So what happens when we focus on the difficulties in our life and how can we shift to a more positive view? That is the question that I'm exploring this episode.

Healing Through Feeling with Anna Milne

11/15/2018
Episode 008 - Anna Milne had two sudden awakening experiences. The first time was when she gave birth to her last child. She experienced a lot of blood loss and close to death. Suddenly, she heard a loud voice asking her if she wanted to live or die. When she chose life, she was told to 'make it count'. However, she didn’t listen to the advice from within and allowed herself to spiral out of control. She always had plenty of hatred towards herself and relied on drinking and drugs to numb all feeling in her life. Six years later, she hit rock bottom. She now knew that she had to do something as she had made a complete mess out of her life. This was her second wake-up. Tune in to hear what she learned...

Opening to the Light After Death with Devon Pagett-Blew

11/8/2018
Episode 007 - Devon is a 3rd generation funeral director who opened up to new truths and talents after her awakening experience. Her awakening started with the passing of her Grandmother. A few months after her she passed, Devon began to experience signs that she just couldn’t explain or ignore. This led her on a path of opening up - both creatively and with Spirit. She has discovered her Spirit animal and feels a very strong connection to those on the other side. Which is very interesting for someone who works at a funeral home! She also opened up to her creativity, which she felt she never had before. She now cuts, shapes and tumbles her own stones and turns them in to jewelry pieces that are used to help heal others. Being more open has allowed her to make connections in dreams and meditation with those who have passed. She has also learned to cut out things and people in her life that do not serve her. This has caused her to be a shining example of what can happen when we open up and allow the Divine to work through us.

After leaving her corporate job at Facebook in 2017 to be a more present mom to her 4 daughters, she founded EIEIO Marketing; a digital marketing agency focused on Facebook Marketing for family-first businesses.

In this very first episode, I talk about why I started this Podcast, my intention for it, who it's for and of course the story of my Spiritual Awakening.
