Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to introduce you all to: Satanic ritual abuse, mind control, and organized trafficking survivor and whistleblower, loving mother, brilliant writer and story-teller on Substack, mental health advocate, spiritual wellness connoisseur, conspiracy theory enthusiast, and my dear friend, Jessica KaitlinWhen I first met Jessica months and months ago, her sheer strength, light she embodied, and the fragments of her story she shared left me utterly amazed. Though she couldn't speak out publicly at first, our bond grew, leading me to anonymously feature her in two Substack articles, gently introducing her harrowing experiences in writing to the world. After months of deepening our friendship, I was profoundly moved when she messaged me, "I'm ready to share my story on your podcast!"Born into a legacy of pain, with both families marked by generations of incest and abuse, Jessica's life began under the shadow of trauma. Conceived from a teenage pregnancy within a family that perpetuated child trafficking, she faced molestation, grooming, and psychological torment from her earliest years. At four years old, after revealing abuse by an uncle, Jessica was removed from her father's home, yet the connection was never fully severed, leaving Jessica with a very fractured and poorly put together collaboration of Dissociative Identity Alters. Despite a mother dissociated from her own past abuse, and being forced onto the streets at 15, Jessica's spirit remained unbroken and she has been on a dedicated healing journey ever since.She embarked on a fierce journey of healing, diving deep into the realms of mental health, conspiracy theories, spiritual warfare, and healing practices. Today, Jessica stands as a passionate advocate, educating others on child sexual abuse, Dissociative Identity Disorder, the dark mechanisms of evil, and the empowering truth of our divine heritage as children of a loving Creator. Her story is not just one of survival, but of transformation, empowerment, and the relentless pursuit of light in the darkest of places.CONNECT WITH JESSICA: Substack: https://substack.com/@guidedhealingExclusive Article "Removing An Entity Placed During A Childhood Satanic Ritual": https://substack.com/home/post/p-159159376ARTICLES DONE WITH JESSICA ON EMMA'S SUBSTACK: 1.

Putting on a gravel event for thousands of people is no small task. Our guest this week Amy Charity knows that all too well. Amy is at the helm of the GRVL series which hosts gravel races in FNLD GRVL in Lahti Finland, RDL GRVL in Adelaide Australia, as well as SBT GRVL in Steamboat Springs, Colorado. This year their flagship race, SBT GRVL was met with an enormous new challenge as it faced major resistance from some residents of the small rural community that hosts the event. Amy talks through the challenges of putting on such a large event in a remote, rural community and how she and the GRVL team have had to work with stakeholders to make changes with the event so that it minimizes disruptions for residents of the county. She also discusses why it is so important that we, as gravel cyclists, act as good stewards to the places in which we ride our bikes to ensure that these places are being protected and preserved for all users of the land. Follow SBT on Instagram @sbtgrvl and check out their website for details on the 2025 event.

On December 1st, 1948, the body of an unidentified man was found on the Somerton Beach outside of Adelaide Australia. Despite conducting a thorough investigation that garnered much media attention, the authorities were never able to identify the man and cause of death. In 2022 a professor from the University Of Adelaide conducted a DNA test that was finally able to identify the man. In this week's episode, we'll discuss the mystery of the Somerton Man, some popular long held theories of who he could have been, and the findings of the DNA test and how they stack up with those popular theories!

My friend Dale Schafer (California Convert, Adelaide Australia '79-81 RM, Twice Excommunicated, Lives with his husband in Hudson Valley, NY) joins us to share his story his life as a gay Latter-day Saint. Dale starts with his childhood of feeling like an outcast/not belonging because of his sexual attraction to men. Dale talks about his conversation story followed by his desire to serve a mission (good experience). Dale talks about trying to be honest/live with integrity as he did his best to move forward (came out to mom, mission president, BYU counseling center, broke off an engagement, and his bishop). Dale talks about being excommunicated but then rebaptized while at Utah State and then moving to Boston where he stepped away from the Church—but always felt it was his spiritual home. Dale talks about these years including becoming HIV+ and how his testimony kept him alive. Dale talks about finding his husband (been together for over twenty years) and also attending his local LDS branch (positive experiences with branch president and missionaries). Dale talks about being excommunicated for the second time when the November 2015 policy and how he wishes that had turned out differently. Dale talks about his deep testimony of the Church, God's love, his wish to take to sacrament—all with a personal feeling this will all work out and “follow me, and all will be well.”. I wish I could include more of Dale's story shared on the podcast in this brief description. I was so moved listening to Dale's story and grateful for his courage to share it with our listeners. You are a good man, Dale. All my love and support. Your story will help so many! Links: Dale's e-mail: daleschafer@gmail.com Dale's Instagram: @daleschafer
