Hello and welcome to the Solarline Self-Care Podcast.
I've been so excited to do this interview for a really long time.
And so as I said, I'm just going to get right into it and ask you like a two-part question.
So the first part is, I'm so curious about this and I'm sure everybody asks you this,
but I have to ask, when did you first start noticing that you were able to connect
with the spirit world?
And then the second part of that question would be for myself as well as the listeners,
how can they start to kind of tune into that side of themselves and start to do the same?
Because I assume that everybody has that ability.
So I guess, yeah, that's, I'm so excited about talking to you today.
So that's my biggest question.
Thank you.
So for my own experience, I really was aware of the spirit world when I was young,
like maybe three or four when I first started to kind of see spirit people,
but I didn't know that's what was taking place.
I just used to think they were from the other place.
I used to call it the other place.
And as I kind of grew up through, you know, young childhood into teenage years and such like,
it continued not on the same level. It was quite sporadic at times and then other times it
would be a bit more or a bit more intense.
And when I became maybe late teens, that's when it really started to kick in in a way that
overwhelmed me.
It was almost like I could hear lots of people talking all at once and it was to the point
where at night time when I would go to bed, I didn't really want to close my eyes because
I knew that I was going to start hearing things and feeling things.
And I didn't know what to do with it.
So I went and spoke to a local medium and I always followed mediumship.
I was always drawn to mediumship.
I read mediumship books from the age of ten.
I started going to medium spiritualist churches in Scotland and around my local area when
I was sixteen or maybe even fifteen.
And so I kind of knew where to speak to a medium, I knew where I could go and I went to the
church and I spoke to one and she told me that yes, but that's because you're a medium and
I said to her, "No, I'm definitely not a medium."
Like I'm just asking to get advice on this because I don't know what to do with it and
she said, "No, you're really a medium."
So she invited me along to a development group which we called a circle and in that circle
the minute I sat down and the minute I'd done my breath work and got into that kind of
place, I just felt like the penny had dropped, like everything made sense.
My whole life up until that point started to make sense.
All the things I had been experiencing made sense and I knew I was a medium and I knew
that that was where I had to start taking the work forward.
And from there on I was very thirsty for knowledge.
I wanted to explore it all.
I went and studied.
I learned about it because I always felt like if I have got this blessing and this gift
then I want to make sure I can do it properly to the best of my ability.
So I started to really develop myself a lot.
And that kind of leads on to the second part of your question about how we can do that.
Now I will say that my belief isn't that everybody's born to be a medium.
I think that the ones that are born to do it can do it.
I don't think everyone has that mediumistic ability but I do believe that every single one
of us or I know that every single one of us has a psychic ability.
And psychic is slightly different in that psychic connection is like a mind to mind communication.
It's where you will tune into the people in this world.
You'll feel things from people.
You'll pick up presents.
You'll pick up energy.
You'll have your own psychic ability in that intuition that you might call it got
instinct, sixth sense, that's all your psychic ability and every one of us can develop that
to varying points.
Some people will work with it to help others.
Some people will use it for their own guidance and their own knowledge and their own life
but every single one of us can develop that.
Yeah, I think I'm kind of glad to hear that because were you ever scared when you were younger
or it was just normal right from the beginning so it wasn't scary?
Yeah, I don't think I ever recall being scared.
Maybe one occasion, one occasion where I was at my grandmother's house and I was going to
sleep and my sister was also in the bed with me, we were young and maybe I was about seven
years old and both of us experienced what we've seen as a swirling energy right above our
faces and it was quite overwhelming and we did get frightened at that point but that's
the only time that I recall being frightened all other times with everything else going
on.
I just kind of had a knowledge that it was just spirit so it didn't frighten me.
It became overwhelming like I said later on because it was almost like tuning in a radio
where you were hearing lots of different voices crossing over each other and I didn't
know what they were saying and it just felt very intense so at that point it was overwhelmed
but it still wasn't frightened.
Yeah, so how does it come in for you?
Is it, well you say you hear voices?
Is it all voices or is it visual also or is it feelings or sounds or any of that stuff?
It's everything.
I think at that point I think they were really trying to get my attention because when I went
to speak to the media and went and sat in the development circle those kind of voices
stopped and I remember saying to my teacher at the time, I don't think I need to come here.
I think this has been a mistake because I'm not hearing anything now and she said no
while you won't because they've got your attention now.
So now it's about the quiet, now it's about the subtlety of spirit communication which
is what it is, it's very subtle but when they are communicating it is to do with voices,
hearing, seeing, feeling, knowing.
It's all of the the clear, you know we speak about clear voice, clear audience, clear
sentence and clear cognizance and it's all of them all at once.
So when you work with people, does, do you try to connect with somebody that's say on
the spirit side or do they just come through?
Do you have like any kind of control over it?
Yeah, I mean I think when I'm working, when I'm doing redungs for clients or audience events
or anything like that, then I know how to connect like it's just as if I'm opening up
a door and then I feel the spirit world are right there and then the communication just
naturally happens.
If I'm not working, if I'm in my daily life and doing something at home or you know, not
in working mode, I'll call it, then I rarely feel the spirit world or hear them.
I can turn my awareness to them and as soon as I switch my awareness to spirit, I can feel
them, but they don't bother me in that way.
So you've kind of got a bit of control over that.
Oh, okay, that's, that's kind of nice because I would imagine that it would be someone
overwhelming that if you're every person that you spent time with, all the relatives came
along with you, you had to have all these conversations going on.
So I would imagine that would be confusing and difficult to go about your life that way.
Do you ever find that sometimes people do come through like with a really, really strong
message that you can't ignore?
It has happened.
It's quite rare that it happens, but you know, it does happen and I think the thing is
morally and ethically you can't just walk up to someone and give them a message.
You can't just walk up to like a stranger or even even if you did know it, you know,
the person, it's not right to just suddenly say, I've got this here because you don't know
what that person's belief is and you don't know how they would receive that message.
So ethically, you're not really supposed to do that, but there's been a couple of occasions.
One that comes to memory was when I was on a train traveling down to England from Scotland
to do some work and there was a lady sitting across from me and I felt I had her husband
there and he was talking to me the whole time and he was telling me that he needed to talk
to her and I was saying to him in my mind, I can't, you know, I can't broach that subject,
I can't just ask her and then I did say to him, if you want me to talk to her and give
you your message, she needs to ask me, that's the only way I can do it.
So I left it in his hands.
Well, about 10 minutes later she said to me, where are you going?
What are you doing?
And I said, oh, I'm just traveling for work and she said, what do you do?
I said, I'm a medium.
And she said, I love mediumship.
I love everything about mediumship.
And I said, well, that's interesting.
I said, because I do actually feel that I have your husband here.
I said, is your name Margaret?
And she said, yes, it is.
And I said, I have your husband here.
So I asked her at permission, could I give you this?
And she said, of course, she was delighted.
And it turned out that her husband had only passed away six weeks previously and I picked
up lots about her life and what she was doing and all the rest of it.
And when she got off of the train, she said to me, that's changed everything for me.
Like, I can't believe that happened.
I am so thankful because she was really struggling.
And she got off the train and I thought, now when spirit wants something to come through,
they will make it happen, regardless of how it happens, they will make it happen.
So that's one example, but I've heard, you know, there's many examples and sometimes
that I haven't been able to pass that on to someone.
Yeah, I can imagine that could be frustrating.
So tell me about some of the most powerful ways that you use, the skiff that you have.
I don't know if that's the right way to ask the question, but what do you think of the best
ways that you use your gift that you think makes a difference in the world?
Because as you said, it made such a difference to her and I could imagine that making a big difference
to a lot of people who maybe suffered a loss that was surprising or something they weren't prepared for.
So they would give them closure.
But I don't want to put words in your mouth, I want to hear from you, like, some of the ways that you think this,
your gift really, really helps people on both sides.
Yeah, mediumship in itself is for healing.
So I think that sometimes in the way things are done now in the more modern times where everything's on social media,
people can go on there and find a medium at the drop of a hat, giving messages online, you know, all of that.
Now there's nothing wrong with that if it's genuine mediumship.
That's spreading the word, the awareness and everything.
But I feel sometimes it takes the sacredness away from the purpose of it and the purpose of it is to heal.
And you are healing both sides because when someone crosses over, when someone passes away, they might, like you said,
they might pass away suddenly or unexpectedly and didn't get their chance to kind of be prepared or say goodbye.
And so they might come through from the spirit world and you're giving a reading to their loved one.
And what it does is it brings healing to both parties because the person in the spirit world needed to say that goodbye
or needed to say how the felt or give messages and the person here left behind needed to know that their person was alright.
So it does give that kind of healing prospect to both.
And that's really what it's for and that's how I use it.
It's really to help people that are in grief, people that have suffered loss, even people that want more of an intuitive reading, psychic reading,
that also helps because in this life it's hard, right? People lose direction, we feel a bit lost, we look to someone to give us an answer or guidance.
And it's about that as well. So the psychic work is just as important as the spirit work too.
And the other way I feel I can use it as well is to help people realise that we are all spirit in human form.
And we all have an amazing powerful energy in us inside of us and we can tap into that.
So it's then teaching people how do you tap into that? How can you help yourself? How can you be aligned with your higher self?
So in all aspects of the work that I do, I do feel the main thing that comes out of it in different ways is healing.
Yeah, I agree with you there. I remember when my mom passed in 2014, one of the things that helped me the most
was reading a book. I think the title was like the journey of souls or something like that.
I don't know if you're familiar with it, but it was like a past life regression. It was about past lives.
And I don't know if he was a psychologist, psychiatrist or what his title was.
Anyway, what helped me about that was not thinking of death as something like stopping. It's just a transition, you know?
Like menopause, the transition. And I think thinking about it that way.
And I think, for me, I feel like this is the correct way to think about death.
Not as something is bad, but just a different transition, a different state.
And thinking of it that way just helped me so much heal from that.
And I feel like it's kind of magical. I never feel bad when someone passes, especially if they were suffering or sick or something like that.
I almost feel relieved, you know? But I don't voice this opinion to other people a lot of times because it can be very offensive to some people to think of it that way.
So I feel like that, even though that wasn't a mediumship, it wasn't working with a psychic or anything like that,
I felt like it was so helpful to me in my healing. So I can imagine how healing it would be to actually be able to communicate with a loved one that's passed.
Now, another question I have is, do you ever work with someone who wants to speak to a loved one that has passed?
But the loved one doesn't want to speak to the person and they will not come through or communicate with you.
Yeah, that's a question I got asked a lot. My answer in my experiences is no. I think that the spirit world know what we need.
And they know what we need to help us go forward as well. Now, if you had, say, like a relationship that was conflicted and maybe they didn't get along or maybe they weren't speaking before the person passed away,
and they really didn't have that bond, that person in the spirit world will still come forward. And it might be that they come forward and give their take on things,
or they might still come forward and say things weren't good between us. I'm sorry it was left the way that it was, but there was this reason and that reason.
They might still just come forward to kind of discuss what had happened, but usually every time I feel like they come through.
The other way of it is I've had people come through that the person here didn't want. So, you know, I had a lady coming to me and our mum came through and it was a wonderful reading and a wonderful connection.
And then I felt her dad coming in and I said, oh, I've got your dad here and before she could say a word, I said, I know you don't want him.
I know you don't want him to talk to you. I know that there's a reason for that. I can see it and I can feel it.
But I needed to let you know that he was here and she said, yeah, I don't want to talk to him, telling to straight back. She just did not want to make that communication.
So after it, I explained to her, I knew that that was going to be the response because I can gauge that, but I still have to let you know that he was there because in the future, it might be that you look at this differently or it might be that he needed to try and heal that wound.
And if you say, no, that's fine, he will know why you've said no, but he still had to try. So we still have our free will so that father in the spirit world did try to make that connection.
And it wasn't, it wasn't wanted. And in that instance, there's nothing you can do about that. You can only explain as a medium, how that works and why that person's there.
Yeah, that's so interesting. I was working with this girl a while back and she was practicing.
So it was mediumship was kind of new to her and she was trying to learn the way she worded it to me was she was trying to learn what the different symbolism that came through what they met.
And so practice was the only way to do that. And so I offered to practice with her. And she had a man coming through and it took us forever to figure out who it was, but it was my, my like ex-father in law, who I disliked on such a deep level.
And you know, she said a few things. I think I remember saying at like to her, I was like, yeah, he was a real asshole.
You know, and she said a few things about how he watch watches over my son and when my son needs to think he goes to this area near the water.
Does he do that? And I was like, no, we doesn't do that. You know, and I was like, whatever. And then we just moved on. And then later I asked my son.
I'm like, when you need to think, do you go to, he wasn't really close to the ocean. So I didn't think he did that.
But that's exactly what he did. And when I went and visited him, he showed me the place. And it was like this cliffy spot where he would sit on the cliff and just overlook the water.
And I was like, okay, well, that was kind of weird. But so then I told him about it. And he's like, that's so weird. And I was like, yeah, I was like,
we're spinning world, I watch him. You know, they are, they do want to give us evidence. And I think that that's what evidential mediumship is. And the word evidential matters because I think that some people can say,
oh, I've got your grandmother here and she's saying that you're not having a good time and she's saying that things are problematic in your life.
And well, there's no evidence in that, that, you know, that could be a psychic like them, the medium can be connected on a psychic level with the person, but you're kind of putting words in the grandmother's mouth then because you're not giving evidence that you've got the grandmother.
So that kind of evidence like your ex father, not saying he goes to the water to think that's his way of saying, I can see what's going on.
And I, you know, I'm watching. And I think that the evidence also needs to be about the person. So if I have someone coming through, I describe them. I give evidence about them so that you can verify. Yes, that's exactly who it is. And then the rest will come.
The evidence of what they can see now. But evidence is very, very important in mediumship.
Yeah, I would imagine so. I mean, this girl said a lot of things that were like, wow, like, so spot on and then there were some things that we just couldn't figure out.
So it was a very interesting experience and it was a lot of fun.
Going back to that, you know, getting things that you can't work out on the spot, that can happen all the time.
You know, there's always little things that the medium gets that the client saying, no, I don't know what that is, but sometimes it can come after as long as like 95% of the reading makes sense.
Then that 5%, it might be things that are yet to come.
Yeah, yeah, I wish I she gave me the recording and I lost it like I can't I can't find it.
So maybe there's a reason for that, but I wanted to listen to it again because there were a few things I'm like, I wonder if it'll like come to me later on because there was she talked a lot about jewelry and I was like, nobody is like nobody in my family is into jewelry or there's no jewelry that's being left behind.
And like, we had like this long conversation about it. It was just so weird and nothing ever came about it. But maybe someday it'll be like, oh, okay.
Exactly. So that's it. So moving into, you know, like I guess like you talked about psychic abilities and or just tuning into your own intuition and working with that in your own life, what are some of the most powerful ways that people can do that.
I found that when I was in a very stressful state, like extremely stressed out, suffering from like, you know, very troublesome divorce and just going through it, I became really, really disconnected with myself and really disconnected with my intuition.
And I had to be very, very intentional about trying to kind of rekindle that connection and I still don't feel like I am completely there. I still feel like, I don't know if the right, what the right word is, but like, frazzled almost, you know, like busy, you know, and I feel like it takes a lot of work.
And I think into like a more relaxed state of mind where there's not that busyness, but I still don't feel connected. So what are some of the tools that you could suggest to people?
Yeah, it's hard, I think in life when life is so busy and sometimes I've ever been so distracted and going in 20 different directions all at one time and it is hard to kind of feel the connection in those moments, isn't it?
You sit down intentionally to do it, sometimes you still can't switch off from things.
The biggest and best way that I would say is to practice meditation. Now meditation for some people feels impossible. You know, I've heard it many times, people say I can't meditate.
My mind doesn't quite end down. My, I can't switch my thoughts off and I always say you're not meant to switch your thoughts off. Your mind is there to work, right?
It's a tool, it's there to keep you safe. It's there to give you thought processes, everything. When you sit down to meditate, you have to kind of learn to let the thoughts flow, like let them come in, let them go out, like not focus on them basically.
But there are other ways to meditate. You can take a walk in nature and it's meditation. You can sit by the sea, it's meditation. You can do anything. You could be washing dishes and kind of going to like a kind of all-or-state of mind and you're in a, you know, in a translate state and that's meditation.
There's many different ways to do it, but what we need to discover really is that part of ourselves that feels connected and that always comes from your gut, that always comes from your solar plexus.
So if you can find a quiet space even for five or ten minutes, it doesn't mean you have to put music on or you have to sit or you have to light a candle.
It can just be that you find that quiet time and you just take big deep breaths and breath work is a massive part of it, I feel.
So if you take deep breaths and then exhale and inhale, exhale and do that a few times, you will get to that core of yourself.
You will feel quiet, you will feel like you're centered. When you feel like you're centered, that's when you can then start to develop your own intuitions, your own connection.
And you can ask your own people to come in from the spirit side and you can feel them at times and feel their presence or maybe even receive words from them or thoughts from them.
So the first thing you have to do is be able to find that place, that quiet place and meditation for me or just finding a quiet five minutes is the way to do that.
Yeah, so moving into that though, your spirit guides and your spirit team or whatever you want to call them, is that like a really specific set of certain people that you're going to work with for your entire life or is that something that changes who you're working with?
And how can you begin to start working with them and using that in your life?
Yeah, your spirit team is always made up of many different guides and helpers. It's not your own people, so your own ones that have cross-robered, I would call them your guardians. I feel like they're the ones that walk with you.
But your guide, your helpers, your spirit team, they were assigned to you. You've already made that connection with them, but they'll come in and out at intermittent times.
You know, they'll come in when you need them, so it's much like being at school and you're one, you're going to get a year one teacher and year five, you'll get a year five teacher.
And there'll be different ones that come in at different times for different emotions and different situations and all of that.
Now, you can get to know them, you can develop a relationship with them and usually there is one main guide that you will be aware of as well.
But they're often there to kind of oversee everything, you know, it's not that they're always going to be there on hand.
You can get to build a relationship with your guides by making that connection.
So again, it starts from the foundation of knowing your own connection to your own higher self.
And once you get to know your own higher self, then you will connect with the higher realms.
So it really is a process of practicing that and kind of finding that connection.
And when they start coming in, you know, they will communicate with you. They will tell you things about their lives.
I know things about my guides life and what they did and what their path was and all of that kind of thing.
But that's taken years. I think sometimes we are very eager to do that.
And I think it's something that's very encouraged at times.
You know, now sit down, you must meet your guides.
And I always say your guides will come when they're supposed to come and you will meet them as your mediumship unfolds and you don't need to worry about it.
That's a good way to think about it.
When they do come through, how do they communicate with you usually?
Are there different ways or is it usually very similar ways for everybody?
Just the same. It's just the feelings, the visions, you know, the what you hear, your thoughts.
They find different ways to tell you different things, but it works through your mediumship faculty, which is through your mind.
So mediumship, mental mediumship we're talking about is through the mind. So they will use your mind much like if you can say your imagination is like a TV screen.
And they will show you things on that TV screen and they will give you thoughts and they will allow you to feel things.
So that's through your mediumship faculty and that's the way your guides will communicate also.
That's very interesting.
The first question that popped into my head when you said that was how can you tell the difference between something that's coming in from say a spirit guide to something that's just maybe something that's negative that's running through your mind is the messages from your spirit team usually not something negative.
Yeah, your messages from your spirit team are going to be positive. They're going to be things that will help and uplift and help you get like get your way through whatever situation is in life.
So it's never going to be a negative thought. Usually negative thoughts are coming from a place of anxiety or fear. So that's usually the mind that's doing that.
If it's coming from the higher realms, it's never really going to be negative. It's only going to be things that are going to help you go forward.
And what are your thoughts on things coming through like angel numbers or maybe a song that's playing or through animals, birds, sort of speak. What are your thoughts on that?
Yeah, I definitely feel the spirit world will use signs. I think that it's not as our mind perceives it meaning you know I've heard people saying, oh, I've seen a bird.
The same bird comes into my garden three times a day. My mum must be that bird and I'm like your mum's not the bird, but what's happening is your mum knows that you will spot that bird and you will associate it with a sign from her.
So now she's going to make you notice the bird. So basically that that's the way it works. It's an influence from the spirit side.
It's not that they're producing that they're influencing our thoughts, what we see, our vision, what comes in our path, even like angel numbers, songs, all of that.
They're definitely going to influence that to happen. So it can happen. I always say, you know, when you're seeing signs or you feel that you're seeing signs, get the logic out the way first.
You know, if you're finding like ten white feathers, check in case there's been birds in the garden, you know, like they're going to be there, right? That's a logical thing.
If a feather appears in your front room on the floor, then that's there's no logic for that, right? So that's a spirit sign.
So I always say check that first, but if you feel that it's a sign from spirit, believe that it's a sign from spirit.
That's very interesting that you say that. I remember, and I'm not sure if you could answer this question, but this is something that I remember when my mom passed also, that I felt like she was still there for a really long time.
So probably like a year I kind of felt her. And like all these different things would happen that would make me, like you said, like, you know, make me think of her, like songs, maybe weird,
weird experience with a bird that would just like sit there like right next to me, you know, and that normally would fly away, you know, like just little weird things like that.
And then I had a dream that she left. And like the dream was like her walking away from me and like a maze. And then me trying to catch up to her the whole time.
And she just kept getting further and further and it was like it was a nightmare really. It was like, it wasn't positive. But then after that, like I didn't feel her as much anymore. And I was like, that was so such an interesting experience.
Do our loved ones have the ability to stay closer like that? So to speak. And then move further away when it's time.
Well, what happens is our loved ones will stay close to us and anytime we need them or ask them to be around, they will. What changes is how we can feel that.
So if let's say someone's passed away and it's a new grief, then you're going to feel that connection much more intensely because emotionally you're looking for that emotionally.
You need that validation that you can feel that person or that they are at it. So you get that one a more intense level, I would say as time progresses and the grief subsides a little bit, then you might feel further away from the person.
It's not that that person has moved away from you. It's just that you you don't have the same need or you you're stronger in your own self, your own emotion.
You don't quite feel it in the same way. Now the spirit world will people in the spirit world will go and do their journey as well. So they've they've got their things to do over on the other side.
So they don't have to be with us 24/7. They're doing out their own thing too. But the minute we need them, they are there.
When you can't feel them for any listeners that feel like like you just said, you know, felt then that that person is far away. I want to reassure you that they are still there.
It's just that the feeling is more subtle. So you're taking that maybe as they're not there or I can't feel them the same is just a more subtle feeling that's all.
And the dream that you had would have been that your brain catching up with the fact that your mum is no longer physically here. So your brain is trying to keep you safe and tell you that she's moving away from you and you're not being you can't capture you can't go there.
You can't be with her. So your brains kind of put that into this dream form and it's it feels like an nightmare right because it wasn't a dream. It feel that it's very upsetting.
But that's just your brain catching up. That's not your mum moving away from you. It's just your brain catching up with what's happening.
That's so interesting. Yeah, that was always really fascinating to me. I never really understood that because I was like, why would I have such a dream like that?
Like what was that about? But that makes total sense that was just like my way of dealing with it really is like my way of kind of moving forward.
So that's very interesting. I feel like I could talk about all of these things forever with you. I'm having so much of things subject.
It's well, I think it's it's really important to a lot of people. And I think that I also feel like not even talking about mediumship.
Like I feel like it's really really important, especially right now to become as connected to your intuition as possible because I feel like just like I feel like the world is very disrupted right now.
And there's a lot of outside influences kind of telling us certain things and really being connected to your intuition is a way to almost kind of like protect yourself and keep you more balanced.
And so I feel like it's really, really important right now to know what the deep down inside what the real truth is that's around that's around you and try to focus more on that than being affected by the outside influences that are trying to kind of put us into a state of disruption and fear.
And so I feel like having you on right now is just like perfect timing to kind of inspire people to kind of step more into connecting with themselves.
Even if it's just like you said, taking time every day to like slow down, get back into nature nature really helps me a lot.
I garden and so that's really peaceful for me, but getting into that state of flow, I think is really, really important. And I'd like to what you said about when your spirit guides want to come through, it'll happen at the right time.
So it's nothing you have to like force, so to speak, or nothing like no magical routine or ritual that you have to do to be able to connect, except you do have to slow down a little bit and connect with yourself.
Connecting with yourself is the biggest key to anything because really we don't understand how powerful we are. It's beyond our comprehension in the mind and we are very powerful beings.
And I think that sometimes people talk about, oh my guide gave me this, my guide gave me that. Well, nine times out of 10, it will be their own higher self that gave them that.
Because we like to make it something external because we can't comprehend that that could be us. You know, if you're hearing something very profound that wouldn't normally be your vocabulary or something that you would pick up on, you're automatically going to say, oh, must have been a guide, but usually it's your own higher self.
I think that connect with your higher self and understanding how truly powerful you are as a spirit being, you have that power, you are connected to the higher realms. It's just finding that. And I think you're right in this, these times where we need that, you know, there's chaos, everything's fearful, there's a lot of anxiety in the world.
And I think learning to connect with that higher part of yourself can really, really change your view in life and change how you go about your day.
Do you have any recommendations, maybe reading recommendations for people that could be like something that could help them kind of start doing this, reconnecting with that.
I would recommend the silver birch books. I don't know if you're familiar with them, but silver birch was a guide who spoke through his medium years ago, many years ago, and it was all recorded and they put it into a books. Now you can hear it on YouTube as well. There's recordings.
But it is in book form and I found reading those books, silver birch, I mean, he talks about how this, how it is in the spirit side, what we need to know, how do we connect all of these things. And some of them are quite complicated.
Sometimes you'll choose one like when I was reading them years ago, I would choose one and then it'd be like, that's not making sense to me, but when I went back to three months later, it made sense. So there's many of them.
So I would recommend the silver birch series of books that you can get or look it up on YouTube and you can hear it.
That sounds like a lot of fun. I love reading books and I know you mean by that, sometimes you read a book and at the time you're just like, it just wasn't the right time for you to read it and then you revisit it at another time. And it's just completely different.
And that's one of the reasons why I love rereading books because it has a different effect on you every time you read it. So I'll definitely check those out and I'll put that in the show notes also.
Also, how can people connect with you and work with you?
You can connect with me by going to my website, which is carandocertay.com, so it's DOCHERTYY, carandocertay.com.
Everything's on there, readings, podcasts, everything goes on there. You don't have to pay anything to hear podcasts and you don't have to subscribe to anything.
It's just that all the knowledge is on there about my work. But if you did want to book either mentorships, teaching, readings, audience events, anything like that, you do it all through there.
Perfect. I'll put that in the show notes as well. I want to thank you for coming on today. I had so much fun talking to you and maybe we could do this again if you're open to that.
So thank you once again for the work that you do in the world and for sharing that with us today.
No problem. Thank you so much.
I think I have to hit stop.
