Fire Through Spirit with Corbie Mitleid presents dialogue, discussion and discovery to help you spread your wings and fly. "Fire Through Spirit" has been Corbie's calling since first going public with her work in 1994. The name originally meant the fire of healing through the spirit of compassion.…
This week - the FINAL EPISODE (no cliffhanger) of Fire Through Spirit Radio! The Final Hurrah is shared with my favorite co-host, Sharita Star, letting us in on what's in store for the New Year. Don't miss it!
Tonight is my final solo show taking your calls, doing readings, and hearing from you how the show has benefited you.
We're all familiar with those "cat pages" on Facebook: some are silly, and some are hilarious, and some are -- well, people's pets. But occasionally there is one that is both hilarious and helpful, and we're pleased to bring on Tina Modugno, artist and author, whose feline child, Oreo, has a wicked sense of humor as well as his own calendar and book! Tina will be talking to us about how Oreo went from a cupcake-sized stray kitten to the celebricat he is today, as well as talking about rescue organizations, why declawing your cat is the LAST thing you should do, and how to support organizations that make life a little better for the strays who need a hand. ALSO, a SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT at the end of the show, so you don't want to miss it!
It's that a time of the year when food really does take front-and-center attention, from the Thanksgiving turkey to champagne on New Year's Eve -- and our chef-in-residence, Christie Seelye-King, is back to help us determine how to put our best recipes forward for the rest of 2014 -- including how to do gluten-free feasting that takes all the grief out of the Beef Burgundy and problems out of the Pumpkin Pie!
How many times do you go to the Internet looking for useful information, and get overwhelmed by the number of sites and level of complexity? If you're like me, often! That's why you definitely want to learn about Building Beautiful Souls, a new go-to website that's the brainchild of Bernadette Carter-King. As well as being a talented medium herself, she is an Internet genius and understands what it takes to build a community one pixel at a time. We'll be discussing her work and her take on finding metaphysical information you can trust on the web, as well as having a great time reflecting on the work we both do.
I’m jazzed to welcome back my friend Chris Alexandria, whose new book turns the idea of affirmations on its head. She advocates ASKfirmations: positive, present-tense questions that encourage the Universe to answer and deliver exactly what you deserve while getting the Ego to sit on the sidelines. She’ll explain the mechanics to us tonight, and teach all of us why Questions are some of the best devices in the Law of Attraction tool kit!
It's the time of the year for stories - ghost stories, stories of the old days and old times. Yet our own life stories are as powerful as anything that shamans told around campfires. My dear friend and brilliant storyteller Andrew Steed inspires us to reclaim and reweave our own stories, to own everything that has happened to us and turn it to our own advantage with the turn of a phrase and the turn of our hearts. Join me for this most magical conversation.
Everybody knows spring and summer are wonderful times to enjoy your gardens and backyards, and the birds provide a spectacular show as they migrate in and make families! But the fall and winter are when they need us the most, and your backyard habitat can be both a delight and a lifesaver for local wildlife when it's snowing, blowing and freezing. My favorite Nature Dude, David Mizejewski, is joining us tonight to talk about how to attract and enjoy birds and other backyard wildlife this fall and winter and how to have your yard recognized as a Certified Wildlife Habitat. Remember, Ma Feathers cares for her wing folks and fur buddies no matter the season. Now you can too!
There can be so many endings in life -- relationships, friendships, jobs, homes. The shamanic journey supports the individual experiencing the pain and the grief in the endings, but also gives the person walking that path the knowledge and direction to make an ending into a beautiful beginning. We will be talking with Summer Hawk Wolf, a well known Shamana in the Pennsylvania area, about her work, her skills and her abilities in helping clients to dance their life path with joy and understanding.
If you’re not one of them, I know you know one – the person who constantly struggles with food and body issues. After decades of looking at every possible solution (with none of them working very long), I was amazed to find that yoga and its practice of mindfulness can offer a surprisingly effective path to well-being. Melissa Grabau’s new book, The Yoga of Food, invites us to explore contemplation prompts and meditations that will really plug us into a deeper appreciation of the body’s health and vitality. Sharing lessons and stories she’s cultivated from years of clinical practice, Melissa provides a roadmap toward a healthier approach to nutrition and the human spirit. If you want to make food a partner rather than a problem (or a pariah!) in your life
We're so grateful so many are walking the Lightworker path these days. But why do some people flounder and some people thrive? The secret is knowing which you are -- a practitioner (you work IN your job) or an entrepreneur (you work ON your job, and love running the whole show!). This week on Fire Through Spirit Radio we're talking with Holistic Business Consultant Holly Matson of Lightseeds by Holly. The world needs the gifts you have to offer! Find out whether you have a practitioner mindset (working in your business) or an entrepreneurial mindset (working in AND on your business), what the difference is, and how you can best grow your work into the rewarding heart-based business you always wanted.
Having earned the nickname "The Travel Channel," I find myself all over the East Coast for both expos and workshops -- and I'm picky about where I go. I was hosted by the Center for Relaxation & Healing in Plainsboro NJ recently, and was struck by how seamlessly the center was run -- a model for all of us who want that storefront or physical practice to blossom in our community. I asked the Center's founder, Michele Granberg, to share with us her thoughts about crafting and sustaining a metaphysical business, and she was more than happy to grab the microphone! If your heart's desire is a place to share your energies with your community at the same time that you increase your own abundance level.
The leaves are turning, the days are getting shorter, and that means fall is on its way. As always at the turn of the seasons, we are delighted to welcome back one of Corbie's favorite co-hosts, Sharita Star: lexigramist, astrologer and numerologist. Find out what's in store for you as we wind down the year -- and hear about Sharita's own new blog on Empower Radio, EMPOWERSCOPES
There is an incredible level of beauty in metaphysical work, but one doesn't always get to see it with 'outside eyes." My guest tonight, Sandra Fioramonti-Sabene brings it fully into being with her magnificent "Spirit Paintings." We'll talk about how the illness and passing of her first husband opened the door for her to combine her artistic talents with her compassionate heart in order to open the Liverpool Art Center and study healing arts as a profession. The arts have become a way for her to help people work through self healing and self discovery.
For over ten years, I have adored the freedom I have found by being an entrepreneur -- and I am doubly lucky that my business can operate worldwide due to the Internet. If that's been YOUR dream, then you definitely want to listen to this week's show! I'm happy to host Meredith Eisenberg and Jasper Blake, whose podcast, PAYCHECK TO PASSION, has just hit the airwaves. Get in on the ground floor and find out how to make your dreams come through using Internet Technology
Like vast numbers of my generation, I was (and am) a Beatles fan. My favorites were John Lennon -- for his intellect, wit, and belief in people in his later life -- and George Harrison. So I was amazed to learn of musician David Young's connection with George. In 2010, beyond any apparent reason, George Harrison began appearing in David’s life. At first, these unusual experiences occurred about every two months, even though David knew little of channeling experiences, was far from being a Beatles fan, and quite afraid of ghosts. Over 100 real life miracles have occurred, many included in Channeling Harrison Book One. This fascinating book was released in March by the publisher of the widely read book, Conversations With God. Now, Channeling Harrison offers you a new way to think about life after death.
As many of you know, I’ve worked with Robert Schwartz on his prebirth planning series for over a decade, and past life retrieval is a specialty of mine. It’s why I am just thrilled to have the chance to chat with Dr. Linda Backman, whose new volume THE EVOLVING SOUL expands on the idea that we plan our lives before we incarnate for purpose, learning and evolution of our Journey.
We have all seen injured or abandoned wildlife, and while our hearts go out to them, most of us don't know how best to help. When an injured animal is found, the goal is releasing it back to a natural habitat where a normal life can be resumed. Sue-Ryn Burns is a longtime wildlife rehabilitator, and we'll be talking about what it takes to save these little lives, from housing, feeding and cleaning up after injured and orphaned animals to how such service requires being observant, calm, and able to commit time to their care and well being.
Many people come to us for readings, and there are the usual themes, such as career, finances and health -- but 80%-90% of the time there are relationship questions. Whether it's a relationship with your coworkers, your family, your friends, your significant other or yourself -- it's often at the core of all other questions. I'm delighted to welcome back Kimberly Wilson Ward who will talk with us about how to keep relationships blooming and thriving, how to "prune them back" for better growth, and how to keep your relationships growing so that everyone concerned can benefit from the energy exchange!
It's a rough world out there -- it can be unfriendly, misogynist, fatalistic, full of fear. You would think that science fiction and fantasy has nothing to do with what we have to deal with. Yet I would challenge you to think about it as a genre that opens you up to what is possible -- where the idea of tolerance, curiosity, the seemingly impossible and the eternally open mind is hailed as the way to the future. Join me with fanthrolopogist and award-winning science fiction/fantasy author J M Frey as we discuss how the view of SF/Fantasy has changed over the decades, and why it may just be the way to save the future.
When one grows up as a Preacher’s daughter, beliefs are very important and sacred. But at as a little girl, LeVans Figueredo always felt and thought differently than others and had a sense of knowing things before they actually happened. In her early teens, she experienced visions and messages in dreams and premonitions. It wasn't until early adulthood that a family trip to the Island of Cuba introduced LeVans to her great-grandmother, a Shaman and Holistic Healer, who explained to her that psychic abilities can be as deep as six generations. It was then that LeVans accepted and began to practice her skills. Once empowered to nurture her gift, her gratification was seeing a healing transformation in her clients. She has worked with corporate executives, entertainers, and service industry people worldwide.
We're not talking about needing to visit an ashram, though it certainly would relax you. Vacation time can be beach or backyard, with tons of friends or those solitary rambles. No matter what you choose, my guest Chef Christy has ways to make sure your healthy diet comes with you on vacation without taking all the fun out of it. Listen with a pen and paper, too, because Chef Christy will be sharing some WOW! summer recipes!
People often wonder what it's like being a medium. There are also many assumptions made that one who communicates with spirit will spend their time communicating with yours! Tonight's guest, Suzanne Grace, puts to rest the rumors that mediums read your mind (or want to) as well as spend their time invading your privacy. Certain Famous Mediums notwithstanding! There are strong ethics involved in this most personal of psychic services.
So many new rules and cautions about eating! So many conflicting reports! And when you are a busy person, either because of career, or family – or maybe both! – how do you make sense of it all? My good friend, the fabulous food guru and health coach Kasia Cummings of Whole Health Evolution is a contributing author on a great new cookbook, BALANCE FOR BUSY MOMS: COOK YOUR WAY TO HEALTH. Tune in tonight at 8pm Eastern/5pm Pacific as Kasia and I dive into a delicious discussion on all things nutritious and timesaving!
So we've passed the pinnacle of the Grand Cardinal Cross, but it is still affecting us. We have another Mercury Retrograde poised to pounce. And there are still some major retrograde planets playing in our charts. How to get through all of this? Astrologer Lisa Verschoor of Avalon Astrology has some wonderful insight on how to Go with the Celestial Flow.
You’ve heard of Matrix Energetics? Kimberly Uhl has taken this powerful healing technique and made it her own, creating Matrix Energetix. Working with both her and her client’s angelic and guidance teams, traumas from this life are released from past impact, assisting the client to move forward in a more healed status in the present. We’ll be talking to Kimberly tonight about how this new methodology was created and how it has transformed life after life for her clients.
As my listeners know, I have been on the psychic expo circuit for many years now. There are good promoters and bad, successful shows and ones that fade quickly. But whenever anyone asks me about my favorites, always at the top of the list are those run by FIrst Star in Canada, the successful brainchild of Stan Mallow and Ray Faucher. I am honored to welcome half of the Dynamic Duo on my show this week! Stan Mallow has been a museum director, ghost hunter, psychic consultant and now one of the best and most professional show entrepreneurs I've ever met -- as well as being a treasured friend. Join me Thursday night as we listen to Stan recount his decades dealing with the unseen, the unexpected, and the unique!
One of the greatest values we can utilize from our self-knowledge is understanding our thinking patterns, feelings and beliefs and how they manifest your present reality. What we feel determines our thoughts, which directly affect the now within our lives!
As many of you know, I'm shifting away from psychic expos and fairs, because I am finding my joy is teaching and facilitating workshops that move people forward. That's why I'm delighted to speak with Vincent Gemma, who is known for his "God, It's Not Working!" workshop, and lectures that encourage people to move beyond what stops them in new and powerful ways.
I'm pleased to welcome aura reader, psychic, radio show host, author, and speaker Pamala Oslie to the show tonight. Pam is living proof of the profound shift that is occurring in human consciousness. We are evolving into a more highly developed species, one with enhanced abilities and a greater level of awareness, and it is expanding our understanding of reality. Pamala says these abilities are not only possible, they are real and natural, and she shows you how to develop them so you can enrich your life.
This edition of Fire Through Spirit is "Past Presents the Future" with guest Rob Beschizza. We look at how important things in our past have shaped us for tackling this problematical future. I'll be discussing how ELFQUEST, with its ideas about tribe, nature, self-reliance has affected so many of its readers for the better, generation after generation, and also be speaking with folks whose experiences in medieval/Renaissance re-enacting have made them more aware of the ideas of courtesy, chivalry and being of assistance out in the world.
These days, gardening is not just to grow plants -- it's to support your local birds, bees and critters, and to keep the planet running a little better, one butterfly bush at a time! I'm delighted to welcome my dear friend and National Wildlife Federation spokesman David Mizejewski for a real spring program: Gardening for wildlife, and making a difference for the planet right in our own backyard and community!
Do you believe in "divine appointments?" For over twenty years, Dorothy Smotherman had been asked by Spirit to complete a book about a unique healing tool. She taught about this tool, she lectured on it, but the book just wouldn't jell. It took a chance meeting with Lori Rekowski to make it happen. Paying attention to these types of meetings can be life changing for us all! Dorothy and Lori talk with me about the synchronicity of how their "divine appointment" with each other other birthed this vital book on this edition of Fire Through Spirit.
"Spring is sprung, the grass is riz…" and we know where Sharita Star is -- right here with us for her seasonal visit. Join me with one of my favorite co-hosts to discover what's ahead for the next three months through numerology, astrology and lexigrams.
I'm pleased to welcome Rachel Ginther, longtime alchemist at The Garden at Thunder Hill. The Garden has been home to amazing vibrational products for years, but she and her husband Brian have now founded Lady Liberty Farm, a Holistic Organic Farm & Educational Retreat Center. If there is anyone who knows how to co-create with the land, the animals and people, it's Rachel! Join us for a lively discussion of food, freedom and fundamentals on this edition of Fire Through Spirit on Empower Radio.
Continuing our theme of Manifestation, I’m pleased to welcome life coach and Spiritual Transformation Mentor Brenda Garris. Brenda and I both agree – there are right ways and “detouring ways” to view Law of Attraction work, and this week is about getting you on the expressway to your desires. We’ll be talking about how to correctly manifest your highest and greatest good; look at how you may be blocking yourself from receiving the best the Universe has in store for you; and explore how our mind controls who we are and what we receive.
My experience at the John Holland Master Class last year was marvelous, both from a learning point of view and because of the dear friends I made there. I am delighted to welcome one of them, Savonn Champelle, to the show this week. Working as a male model -- with all the ups and downs that such a career entails -- Savonn's life took a dramatic turn in his 20s, when his latent clairvoyant abilities came-front-and-center, and he has been working with Angels and guides to help people calm, clarify and empower their lives ever since.
When you have the winter blahs, how can you get your body ready for spring? Our brilliant Mistress of the Kitchen, Chef Christy, will join us with suggestions on how to rev up that sluggish digestive system and rev up your energy for the season ahead.
This week is a "reading show," and I'll be talking with listeners about what it takes to find That Special Person, how to work within current relationships, and how to make the big decision: are you fine the way you are, do big changes need to happen, or is this a relationship that should be dissolved? Join us for our very special type of Valentine's show!
John Naughton is a long time friend on the psychic show circuit. Over the past couple of years, John has asked me to channel his spirit guides with regard to an amazing book he was writing that revisits the Biblical chapter of Revalations. It is nothing like you have heard before, and I am delighted that John has agreed to talk with us about his new work. This story an interpretation of the age old prophecy "The Revelation of Christ". This is not a book about the Bible. This is a book that explains the prophecy that is the last book of the Bible. Through the spiritual gift to Interpret Prophecy, he received this interpretation and with the help of The Council of Elders, Angels and Guides wrote this book for you.
Many people search for the truth, the elixir of life or the secrets of success. But with the sea of information out there, it’s often difficult to discern truth from falsehood. Paul Sutherland's book, Breaking the Law of Attraction, is a guide directing people toward what really matters in life: internal happiness centered on love, peace and truth. While the Law of Attraction has value, Paul takes the "pretty" out of the real world and explains how hard work, positive belief and solid focus will get you where you need to go in life for all the right reasons. Money isn't the goal: making money while pursuing your dreams and staying true to yourself is hitting the jackpot. We'll be talking with Paul about his take on "The Secret" and the whole LOA genre Thursday at 8pm Eastern/5pm Pacific. Join us!
I met Kate Breeders last fall at the wildly successful Natural Living Expo in Boston. I was struck by Kate's logo: Clarity + Beliefs + Actions = Brilliance! Kate is a specialist in helping entrepreneurs get unstuck, get moving, and get the cash flowing (all of which I know I'm interested in -- how about you?). We talk with Kate about how our mindset affects our success and the conscious v. the subconscious mind; Kate also shares stories with us about some of her most memorable clients, with tips and tricks that will get your entrepreneurial year off to a great start!
A woman who never let go of her dreams, no matter how many detours, blocks or delays the Universe gave her...Kasia Cummings. The founder and alchemist of Buffalo Gal Organics and nutritional counselor with Whole Health Evolution. She shares with us how she went from crossroads of self-doubt to envisioning what she wanted to give the world through her skills with essential oils and nutritional savvy. Until you start to know yourself, you can't want a different life but you will be blocked from attaining it. When you know your purpose, your joy and your true craft, Spirit comes rushing in to help you create your truest dreams.
Wow, time flies! And it's time to bring back my favorite co-host, author/astrologer/numerologist/lexigramist Sharita Star. We look at what's ahead for the year to come, how to navigate the holidays with less stress and more serenity, and some of YOU had your chance to ask Sharita for your PERSONAL year forecast!
It’s “Corbie Chat” on Fire Through Spirit. What’s on the table? New Year’s thoughts – how to make 2014 what you want, instead of what you “think you can have". How to look at the happenings of 2013 in the best and most constructive light possible. My own tips and tricks for getting 2014 off to a jet-propelled start. Plus the value of “the Card of the Year” – a single card pull that gives you direction and encouragement for the next 12 months.
My Noo Yawk compatriot, the wonderful psychic/medium/Grand Mamacita Allie Cheslick, joins me on FIRE THROUGH SPIRIT for an ALL READING SHOW! That's right -- those of you who had been waiting to ask questions, talk to a loved one passed or just get a good dose of "Youse Guys" perspective from the two of us, this is the show!
Corbie talks turkey and other holiday traditions with her good friend and neighbor, Shannon Hayes. How to simplify and enjoy the true spirit of the season, without all the baggage, stress and worry that none of wants or needs.
The holiday season is upon us (even though Thanksgiving has not yet arrived). And if you're a parent, one of the toughest things is dealing with the commercial, buy-buy-want-want aspect that commercialism has pumped into the season. I'm delighted to welcome back our regular visitor, Greg Milk -- Option Mentor, father of four, "Autism Awareness Avenger" and a wise and very funny man -- who shares his ideas about how to make the holidays more meaningful, less stressful, and more deeply appreciated by parents and children alike. This one is for all the parents out there!
Science and technology often meet up with the weird, the inexplicable, and the numinous. This point of contact is at the heart of much of what Rob Beschizza does as the managing editor of Boing Boing, one of the Internet's longest-running and most popular tech and countercultural websites. The mélange of science and technology can be as delicate as a sword dance, and sometimes as fraught – but it's a wellspring of wonderful stories. Most of the coverage is hard science and tech, but every day there'll be something about cryptozoology, mysticism or whether crop circles are created by beam weapons or spirits. This conversation with Rob is no holds barred, and even I didn't know where it was going to go! But with this witty, edgy and engaging fellow the ride is definitely worth it.
It's a reading show plus! The Red Sox are in the World Series so we're taking our cue from them by welcoming world-renowned Boston Intuitive MaryLee Trettenero. MaryLee does ghost tours, she's a medium and forensic intuitive, and a heck of a lot of fun. We'll be talking with MaryLee about all of her adventures and talents!
Donna Barr, a woman I have known for over 20 years, her passion for looking at the world in all its facets -- good AND bad -- is what I love about her. This is a no fluffy-rainbows-and-unicorns woman, but one who sees everything about the world that needs repair and redress and dives in. Whether its pointing out human foibles and blind spots through her characters, championing the environment or calling on people to rethink their ossified attitudes, there is never a dull moment around this woman.
