Today I sit down with Kelly Meehan, the renowned "Womb Whisperer," to explore the sacred journey of spirit babies—souls preparing to enter the physical world. We delve into pre-birth communication, the mysteries of conception, and how grief, loss, and spiritual awakening intertwine with parenthood. Kelly shares insights into why some souls choose specific families, how they heal ancestral traumas, and the power of listening to these unseen connections. This episode will leave you awestruck by the divine choreography of life's beginnings.00:00 Intro01:09 Who's Kelly Meehan04:26 Birth Trauma07:19 At what point spirit of the baby comes to the body10:07 What info does Kelly receive?14:13 Going into the near future18:08 Spirit baby energy22:20 Birth and death – two sides of the same coin26:52 Medicalization of life30:23 Deeper kind of collective33:53 New Earth Children49:15 Sense of acceptance & pregnancy50:25 Kelly's work & OutroKelly Meehan:· WWW: newearthchildren.com· Book: Notes from a Spirit Baby Medium · IG: @spiritbabymedium In The Space Between membership, you'll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.

It's all a great big plan, so let's talk during evening mirror prep. Funny story about a small book related error. EU needs to be strong armed. It's the end of unchallenged tariffs on US goods. Germany may freeze this winter. this is info for those over 30. When you realize what's happening to the kids, you get the commodity picture. China has hijacked the UN. The DEI plan was evil genius. Expanding false rights. Free drones to 160 nations. The Bongino op and why he gets dumped on. The problems with the Epstein hanging. It was an extraction. Benny Johnson and the pom poms. They show who is paying who. Our CDC was partnering with China. The Remdesivir killings. The patients expired due to the protocol. The alt media failed too. Ventilators were controlled remotely. Here's a related student story. The financial raping of America will continue. Let's compare airline fares with foreign carriers. Want to travel, go to Cairo. Pleading the fifth was an option, but a surprise witness appeared in the Diddy trial. Is immunity for him possible? Caged birds will sing. Then there's that witch Beyonce'. Oh, and about that time at the White House. Currency devaluation incoming. There is no hate, but always be sure and know your sources.

Every week, I speak to hundreds of people.They tell me the same thing: they feel stuck in a 9-5, uncertain about what comes next. Like something's missing.And they're right, something is missing. I call it the ‘Missing Link'.Until you uncover it, you'll always feel like there's more out there, because there is. But once you find it, everything changes.This video will show you how.Enjoy.Free ‘Guide To Find Your Purpose' and Book Notes: https://simonsquibb.com/book-notes-purpose/Become a member and get access to channel perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGznz4NfW5iymkvn1l40qyA/joinJoin my newsletter here: https://simonsquibb.com/newsletters/My book "What's Your Dream?' is out now!: https://simonsquibb.com/whats-your-dream-book/If you need more help for free visit https://www.helpbnk.comTimestamps00:00 - Intro01:01 - The Missing Link06:56 - Limiting Beliefs20:08 - Outro

On November 17th, 2002, 23 years ago, Rick Atkinson appeared on the Booknotes television program to discuss his book, "Army at Dawn." This was the first of three books Atkinson called the "Liberation Trilogy," a full history of the European theater of World War II, which is a total of 2,512 pages, including notes and indexes. Beginning in 2019, Rick Atkinson switched trilogies. This time, it's the history of the American Revolution. In this episode of Booknotes+, we are repeating the 2002 interview, which has substantial background on Rick Atkinson's life and writing experience. During next week's episode, we will talk with him about his second book on the Revolution, "The Fate of the Day." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

As a follow on to Stuart Banner's history of the Supreme Court, this week's Booknotes+ podcast features a 2002 interview with Dennis Hutchinson, a University of Chicago law professor emeritus. The subject matter: the forgotten memoir of John Knox, a law clerk to former justice James McReynolds, a native of Kentucky. Knox's year was the term beginning October 1936. In history, it is very rare that a law clerk at the Supreme Court has published an insider's view of the court or of a justice. Professor Hutchinson gives the background on where he found the memoir, which hadn't been published before. Justice McReynolds, as you will hear, was, according to historians, arguably one of the most disagreeable justices ever to sit on the bench. Learn more about your ad choices.

I read a lot of books (200+ each year), and I'm often asked for recommendations. Out of the many books from last year, there were 12 non-fiction books that I gave a 5 star rating. In this episode, I share why Decoding Greatness by Ron Friedman stands out among these exceptional reads.Ask a legend in sports, business, or art about how they achieved their success, and you'd likely find a wealth of knowledge about their strategies, mindsets, and daily practices. If you want to be great in any category, you have to learn. Continuing our exploration of how to learn effectively, Decoding Greatness by Ron Friedman offers invaluable insights that build on everything we've discussed in our "Learn How to Learn" series. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. When going through your learning journey, always remember: you don't have to learn alone. You can learn from the greats. You can learn how *they* learned.Decoding Greatness -- How the Best in the World Reverse Engineer Success:       https://amzn.to/3n8W9EYP.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

Join us as we dive into the fascinating mind of Dr. Neil Theise, a pathologist and professor at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, whose groundbreaking research spans from the discovery of the interstitium to the study of complexity theory and consciousness.  In this episode, Dr. Theise shares with Dr. Lorne Brown his  insights from his book, "Notes on Complexity: A Scientific Theory of Connection, Consciousness, and Being," discussing how the interstitium acts as a bridge between different healing paradigms and how complexity theory explains everything from biology to human behavior. We also explore how quantum physics, consciousness, and interconnectedness are deeply woven into our understanding of health and well-being.   Key takeaways:  The interstitium is a crucial fluid-filled network throughout the body, linking different healing systems. Complexity theory reveals the interconnected nature of life. Our consciousness may be intrinsic to the structure of the universe. Eastern and Western medicine have more commonalities than differences when viewed through the interstitium. Embracing unpredictability is vital for adaptability in life and health.   Dr. Neil Theise Bio: Dr. Neil Theise is a medical doctor. He is a pathologist as well as professor of pathology at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. Through his scientific research, he has been a pioneer of adult stem cell plasticity and the anatomy of the human interstitium. Dr. Theise's studies in complexity theory have led to interdisciplinary collaborations in fields such as integrative medicine, consciousness studies, and science-religion dialogue.  His book, “Notes on Complexity: A Scientific Theory of Connection, Consciousness, and Being”, was published in 2023.

In the first week of publication of Erik Larson's latest book, "The Demon of Unrest," sales put it at the very top of the bestseller list.

In his book "Night of the Assassins," author Howard Blum tells the story of "Operation Long Jump," the code name for the Nazi plan to assassinate the Allied leaders. In telling this story, author Blum says: "I wanted to write a suspenseful character-driven story of men, heroes, and villains caught up in a tense, desperate time, who needed to find courage and cunning to do their duty for their countries and to fulfill their own sense of honor."

Not all fiction needs note-taking, but when you find a book with something to say, jotting down your thoughts can deepen the experience.

Whether it's a novel packed with ideas or one that just hits home, here's how I approach notes when fiction gets philosophical.Send Me a Text Message with Your QuestionsSupport the showIMPORTANT LINKS:

In this week's episode of Conversations with Kenyatta, Kenyatta D. Berry, author of The Family Tree Toolkit and host of PBS' Genealogy Roadshow is joined by Pulitzer Prize Winner, author, and historian, Dr. Jefferson Cowie. The two discuss his latest book Freedom's Dominion: A Saga of White Resistance to Federal Power, which won the Pulitzer Prize in History, his research, and so much more.ABOUT DR. JEFFERSON COWIE (as taken from Vanderbilt.edu) Jefferson Cowie's work in social and political history focuses on how class, race, and labor shape American politics and culture. His latest book, Freedom's Dominion, won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 2023.Based on one county's history, Freedom's Dominion: A Saga of White Resistance to Federal Power tells the dramatic tale of generations of local fights against the federal government that prop up a particular version of American freedom: the freedom to oppress others. Advance praise calls it "magisterial," written with "eloquence and with brilliance," and Cowie's "most extraordinary book yet."The Great Exception: The New Deal and the Limits of American Politics was released in early 2016 and attempts to reinterpret a wide swath of American political history in the twentieth century. The Washington Post‘s E.J. Dionne Jr. called it “one of the year's most important political books."Stayin' Alive: The 1970s and the Last Days of the Working Class, draws together labor, politics, and popular culture into a vibrant narrative about the decline of class in American political culture. It received a number of “best book” awards, including the 2011 Francis Parkman Prize for the Best Book in American History and the Merle Curti Award for the Best Book in Social and Intellectual History. Critics said, “Stayin' Alive will long stand as the finest and most sophisticated portrait of politics and culture in the American 1970s, and also as a model for how to talk about both political and cultural transformations without shortchanging either.”Capital Moves: RCA's Seventy Year Quest for Cheap Labor charts the relocation of one firm through four different cities, two countries, and a great deal of social upheaval. It accounts for what made each community attractive for an industrial location and what changed to make the company relocate again. The book received the 2000 Phillip Taft Prize for the Best Book in Labor History.In addition to his scholarship, Cowie's essays and opinion pieces have also appeared in the New York Times, TIME magazine, NPR Music, Foreign Affairs, Chronicle of Higher Ed, American Prospect, Politico, Democracy, The New Republic, Inside Higher Ed, Dissent, and other popular outlets.  The recipient of several fellowships, including the Center for Advanced Studies in Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, the American Council of Learned Societies and Andrew Mellon Foundation, the Society for the Humanities at Cornell, and the Center for US-Mexican Studies at UC San Diego, he has also appeared in a variety of media outlets including CNN's The Seventies, C‐Span's Booknotes, NPR's Weekend Edition, as well as documentaries, podcasts, and radio broadcasts.The music for this episode, as always, is "Good Vibe" by Ketsa.
