Her twin sister has everything. Except a pulse.Julie Chan, a supermarket cashier with nothing to lose, finds herself thrust into the glamorous yet perilous world of her late twin sister, Chloe VanHuusen, a popular influencer.

When Julie discovers Chloe's lifeless body under mysterious circumstances, she seizes the chance to live the life she's always envied.Transforming into Chloe is easier than expected. Julie effortlessly adopts Chloe's luxurious influencer life, complete with designer clothes, a meticulous skincare routine, and millions of adoring followers. However, Julie soon realizes that Chloe's seemingly picture-perfect life was anything but.Haunted by Chloe's untimely death and struggling to fit into the privileged influencer circle, Julie faces mounting challenges during a weeklong island retreat with Chloe's exclusive group of influencer friends.

Imagine you and your business partner build something together, it becomes successful and immensely popular -- inspiring many and impacting lives. Then, one day, you realize it is not brining you the same joy and, in fact, is stressing you out. So, you finally decide to "press pause" because you become a parent and your business partner realized that maybe the business should pause as well. No one seems to be able to understand why you would do this, but you both realize it is the right thing to do. This takes guts, and it is part of the story of Ali Leipzig and Michelle Garside - Cofounders of Soul Camp (a premier adult sleep-away camp for wellness and transformation). They are also founder of Soul Camp Creative, which is devoted to working with conscious companies and brands that are positively impacting the planet. Ali and Michelle share their journey with Julie Chan.

Bennett joins Julie Chan in the MouthMedia Network studios in New York (powered by Sennheiser) to discuss his documentary film “PGS – Intuition is your Personal Guidance System” exploring the nature and existence of intuition.In this episode: Why Bennett started in 1999 working on a documentary about intuition after a near fatal crash in New Orleans at an intersection – he was saved because of hearing a voice telling him to slow down, intuition Deciding to make a documentary, how it took 18 years Why it mattered that Bennett came from skeptical and journalistic backgrounds How he was successful at getting movies made, but couldn’t get the film made the way he made previous films, by sheer force of will When Bennett decided he needed to decide in the morning, then had a dream that told him about making the film however he can in a non traditional way, and just to do it and begin it How he woke up at 4:44 am after that dream, and found meaning in that time in being surrounded by angels and spirit guides Than, flying to India, giving himself over entirely to guidance and intuition How he knew no one in India who could help him, and had nothing lined up despite knowing movie people in India Having a clear recollection from previous trips of a billboard about an institute, asked to come and interview the director about intuition – then when he found out there never was billboard Meeting a living saint, and was directed from person to person with top experts in intuition from all over the world Being in awe of powers that worked through him to make the film Intuition exists, how we all have it, the purpose it has to keep us on our life path How intuition can be regarded as a legitimate functioning system in the body, but works in the energetic realm Science hasn’t figured out a way to empirically prove it, so it is largely ignored by Western science Germs were only discovered 150 years ago, so what else does science not know? The rational mind wants to keep us in what’s real because that’s safe, ego is about survival Intuition goes into the unknown People accept fear as a part of their lives and don’t even question it From fear to intuition How Bennett got to the point of being largely devoid of fear Having good karma and what you do with that second chance, accepting fulfilling your function/purpose, or death is to impact on someone else Being his purpose to make the film and make people aware of the journey he’s been on, not to prosthelytize Survival intuition to sense threat or menace Cognitive intuition based on expert and even forgotten knowledge, intellect and training based Mystical or divine intuition, from the soul Stopping to allow yourself to listen to the intuitive impulses that come to you, pay attention Healing relationship with sister Why Bennett doesn’t feel disappointment anymore People are aspects of the divine, like us The ways the film has impacted others The toughest screening was the one at which his family saw the film, as he doesn’t think they believe he’s changed What he learned from James Van Praagh saying he’s nervous First thought, best thought A life changing moment for Julie that becomes an inspiration and awakening

Attention to both the big things and small details, searching for a spiritual awakening, and connecting authentically with people… What if you were in a room at a mindfulness conference with some of your most successful peers—and you were asked to stare into the eyes of the stranger next to you for sixty seconds.

Being the change, and how a better world begins with you… Two phrases one doesn’t usually hear: teaching at Yale and Harvard, and being a psychic. Five years ago Naomi Pabst walked away from academia to pursue the louder calling of her soul — teaching others on the art of life and love.

Being present and conscious of yourself and the world around you… Rachael Nickel, yoga instructor, joins Julie Chan in the MouthMedia Network studios powered by Sennheiser.Finding yoga and Reiki, a cellular biologist makes and impression, and when Nickel’s head explodes Nickel discusses how she met Chan at gentle yoga session in Queens, NY, growing up without spirituality, the time she says Jesus Christ came to her, wanting to go into a Catholic church as a result, having a spiritual longing, a difficult time as a teen, being self destructive in the 1980s, and then finding yoga. Then meeting a predator yoga teacher, learning Reiki, assisting people during the dying process, learning from a nun who was an amazing healer, then Nickel had children and stopped healing, feeling as if perhaps she was not a legitimate healer. She recalls hearing from a cellular biologist who had a near death experience and went to the other side and heals at a cellular level, came home, cried, and stalked the healer—who then invited Nickel to train for a week—which has turned into three summers of training. What it is like when Nickel’s “head explodes”, hearing a rabbi talk about four ways of praying — one of which was a feeling of Wow.Awesome Wonder, the concept of Wow, and reprogramming your mind The space of Awesome Wonder, the incredible ways our bodies can move, telling your body you love it, the need to feel the joy and “wowness” of our own experience, we cannot heal as humans. Then hurting her back with yoga postures, resulting in the apparent inability to do yoga any more, then finding new ways to move her body. And the importance of remembering what we really are, the way out of the nightmares we live in, and we are all love embodied. The way animals are so present and joyful, “Wow” as a concept, and falling love with everything by saying you’re in love with everything. Reprogramming your mind by creating a mantra with new information.System confinement, dogmas, and creating an awakening Abuses of power, and how it’s not all rainbows and unicorns. Why Nickel doesn’t want to be confined by any system, how it is not always about love, acceptance and equality, and it can be human nature. Why things shouldn’t be stagnant—as in “here’s how you’re supposed to do things”. Following one dogma or another, how traditions can be honored and allowing foundations, but different people need different systems. Plus, how it is in the cells that healing takes place, and creating an awakening.

A pivotal moment, and being told she saved someone’s life. The acknowledgment of sharing and the attention.

Moving from going to many seminars, and writing how people can implement what they learn, mindset mastery, and the moment she got the blessing from her mentor for her program then put it on the shelf for a long time. Plus, conceiving Global Mentoring Center.Discovering six books, behavior analysis, and emotional ego She discusses coming to Brooklyn to start her program, and how twelve powers were one part of whole program. A client said she should write a book, and other people did too, so she wrote the book, self published and gave them away, but only scratched the surface.

How Kasumu realized maybe there is something in that. He reached out to readers to find out their biggest pain point, learned that people wanted to be told what to do, so came up with another app to help read nutrition labels which had challenges. How he discovered that successful entrepreneurs always did something unconventional, and made list of those entrepreneurs then emailed all of them. He told them he had two failed startups in London and asked if he could shadow them for free. Kasumu found that nobody talks about body shaming for men, he wrote a article while at Greatest which got a lot of traction, so he decided to start an app to help men be healthier. Lyle is an AI powered weight loss app for men, which interacts with you like a dietician would. The focus is more on nutritional value than managing calories, with a high protein-based diet based on lifestyle. Getting ingredients, understanding nutrition better and motivating men to live a healthier life; being conscious of what you’re consuming and connecting to a creative mindset—about the way people should live.

Finding hope and possibility in the Philosophy of Maybe… Allison Carmen, author of “The Gift of Maybe” and a business and life coach joins Julie Chan in the MouthMedia Network studios powered by Sennheiser.A stressed-out attorney, losing control of one’s mind, and a fable that changed everything Carmen discusses her background as a stressed out attorney addicted to uncertainty, how a fable led her to the philosophy of maybe, getting away from the need for certainty, releasing one to greater happiness and fulfillment. Being always worried that things won’t work out, how she “wrote big story” she was going to become a lawyer and worked so long and when she reached that point, there was uncertainty again. How she couldn’t control her mind, couldn’t sleep, started to get sick, tried changing life on the outside and it didn’t work, then one day heard fable and learned that change doesn’t mean doom.Moving to the open place of maybe, the danger of staying positive, and handling fear How she went to the open place of maybe, many possibilities, freedom, liberation. How it keeps you open, hopeful, and how people are fearful. How does maybe relate to surrender? The danger of staying positive, having to be OK with the unknown. Steps toward hope include writing one’s biggest fear down, and all the problems that can stem from that, whether we know 100% the bad things will happen. But one realizes it won’t definitely happen, you can write maybe statements down. Maybe one will be OK no matter what. How maybe connects to action, fear leads to doing nothing. Maybe is the step before the action, handles the fear. And giving people hope, so they take action.Having hope, retraining the mind, and using maybe in business Carmen had no plan after graduation, as she was determined to be in her next school or nothing, she was so fixated on something happening. We still have hope if we have a philosophy of maybe. If overwhelmed by fear and negativity people say “what can I do”, but as a maybe thinker, “if I don’t know the answer, what happens next, I can do anything”. The need to retrain minds, that all things are possible. How adults are the ones who lock children down into the “you need to know” mindset, despite coming from love and thinking about keeping them safe with knowledge. Using the maybe mindset in a business mindset, an example of how the idea of maybe gave a client hope and changed his life, how with a maybe mindset one can be adaptable and see what is going on in surroundings, see other ideas, and the quality of life changes if mindset changes. Being more present, and seeing ideas and possibilities more if you are in the moment.

How Walsh was a horrible person, played rock and “got wasted”, and was going nowhere. One night with hashish that was filled with terror when he thought he was going to die and was happy about it, standing on a bridge looking down at polluted river, and hearing a voice saying “Look closer” and “all the light”.The myth of getting rid of the negative, showing the brain the war is over, and the power of the ego The disconnect between our life and wanting to contribute, the things that get in the way of it, trying to get rid of all that stuff and getting rid of the negative. Everything has a purpose, everything is generated from the nervous system, how the natural expression of who you are runs into something in the environment that says that’s not OK, and how most self help is that there is something wrong with you and you need to be fixed—instead Walsh does the opposite. There’s nothing wrong with you, show the brain that the war is over, a transformation is quickly made, the independent power of the ego that is manufactured by the mind. And who you are vs. a momentary reality.The future, transformation, and an incoming mass shift The future of holistic wellness, how the nervous system’s whole purpose is to stay safe and stay whole. The reality of transformation, how we’re waking up the reality of who we are. And what science should show for another mass shift, and how the influence of love and acceptance will be demonstrated to be physiological.

How Jeovanny Lopez founded three companies: Dignity University (empowering youth to thrive, use their voices, see themselves as the solution), Acid Love (raising funds to support women victims of acid attacks) and a coaching practice, to incubate space to create a year from inside out.

How we tend to focus on the bad, because of the way our brains are wired. The importance to focus more on good things.Manufacturing meaning, intention and free will, and The God Particle How experiences as woman and Latina shaped her, how acknowledging boundaries and values create a space where we can have mistakes and learn from them, realizing we are adding meaning to situations and then allow that meaning to run our day, then all these illusions and stories have won our day.

The relational field with all people at the spoon bending workshop, and shifting energy in life, and presence.Silence, presence, and those 2 Billion bits of information How cultivating presence with yourself allows you to be more present with others, starting to feel things before a person says it, and how being open to information allows us to register more. Liebowoitz says that our brains take in 2 Billion bits of information/sec, but our conscious mind only registers 2,000 of them, so we’re not aware of so much information in relativity. Most judgment is self-judgment, people are a mirror for us, and in a perfect universe, there are no accidents. Learning from triggers, Liebowitz’s shamanic work, and how and why he is moving towards more group work ahead, facilitating,

He recalls being so unhappy and crying on the way to work every day despite tremendous business success, while having no way to move in his own life, despite the superpower and despite a luxurious life. He talks how he decided to quit in order to survive and to be happy, with no new plan in place, and how this put him on a spiritual journey. He reviews self-actualization, self-realization, and how he studied so many things and connected with Dr. Hew Len, teacher of the Hawaiian technique Ho’oponopono, clearing technique based on entire experience is based on beliefs, which determine how you experience life. How mentioned how you have multiple ways of reacting, knowing everyone is expressing the highest level of love of available to them. How this keeps him balanced throughout the day, getting past things that are disruptive, and being on a pathway of love and contribution. How things become visible and revealed, via techniques to get more clarity. Little reveals how he studied with an indigenous tribe in the Amazon, learning a sense of openness and as part of his discovery of techniques around the world. He relates how he was led to creating The Perfect Biz Finder Program accessed by more than 200,000 people, and how your business has to be about something bigger than your business. Social missions in business, a vision of contribution, and influencing family A unique approach looking for companies with a social mission, and imparting spiritual principles to Little’s children, knowing what you want to do with a business success, and seeing that as success. Being focused on developing that vision of contribution in the network of human passions, how there can be a significant correlation between valuation and mission orientation, and the mistake of a social mission when specific as a marketing strategy to drive business. And how exposure to Little’s coaching of executives of socially conscious firms led his daughters to grow up with those sensibilities and view of the world including empathy and spiritual tendencies.A waterfall, a journey with a Shaman, and awareness An intuitive reading from Chan bring images of standing at the base of a waterfall with a powerful force, being unscathed despite the danger and excitement being so close, testing boundaries, understanding what it means to stand safely, and deciding between peace or access to the world. Finding the location of respite, an experience with the Shaman in the Amazon, and Little going on a journey and finding his space spot — and being in that space. A duality between peacefulness and raging power, an ill-advised fearlessness, and keeping going, not being dissuaded. Plus, how blending spiritual principals as part of business becomes a multiplying catalyst, and the impact of awareness.
Psychic readings and channeling texts… Paul Selig, psychic and award-winning author of channeled texts from Tarcher/Penguin (profile), Paul Selig offers channeled workshops internationally and serves on the faculty of The Omega Institute, joins Julie Chan for a conversation about his work as a psychic and author, the physical toll of the job, and his journey from spiritual awakening to the present. Selig holds a Master’s degree from Yale University and serves on the faculty of The Omega Institute, The Kripalu Center and the Esalen Institute. Also a noted playwright and educator, he served on the faculty of NYU for over 25 years. He directed the MFA in Creative Writing Program at Goddard College for many years, and he now serves on the college’s Board of Trustees. Recorded at MouthMedia Network studios, powered by Sennheiser.Beginning clairaudience, being like a radio, and taking care of oneself Selig describes how he started his journey in 1987 a year out of a Masters program at Yale, while working on an opera. How Gideons leave books in a drawer and he reached for a book, beginning a journey out of necessity, hearing a voice telling him to “get his act together”, and his beginning of a clairaudience. How Selig was an open conduit, and how he operated like a radio when he channels he flips the station a bit then has access to other info. When in 2009, after working with a group in his apartment, he began recording and transcribing what the guides delivered as books, with six so far, and how the books are transcripts of sessions and require virtually no editing. Taking care of oneself, and balance. The demands of travel and work, how he is missing the order, schedule, and community and finding the audience more transient. How his current pace and lifestyle is not sustainable, the guides are not tired when he’s tired, how he takes on the physical abilities and issues of those he channels, and how most have a lack of awareness of divinity in so many things, despite that all is holy. His hope is that if teaching continues it will result in a realization for all that can move the process forward. Revealing as a psychic, transient vs. truth, and the physical phenomena What it’s like to be in the field, revealing himself as a psychic, and how there was not as much pushback as he expected. How Chan was inspired by his story and being a psychic is not sexy—they are simply scribes. Being invited to channel at a research symposium of scholars and experts, and how that resulted in his book being published. Selig is not a good new-ager, how there are people showing up, transient vs. truth, and who his guides are. For Chan, channeling feels like vibrations, how channeling results in physical phenomena, how it is tangible and why that helps, and the reality that it is there to be felt.Working interdimensionally, the need for dialogue and research, and the limitations of language How the point of the teaching to realize what operates in a higher way, how he thoughts when stepping into other people that he was traveling, but really he was working interdimensionally, how the coordinate is a way to channel in, how health is changed by the connection to mind body and spirit, and health care is a band aid. A hypothesis of the need for a dialogue about energy and how it affects the mind and body having informed people who understand how the psychic world works, what can be researched, that more research can move things somewhere meaningful, and how there is no need to hide. We rely on a limited language we have inherited. The limitations of language, because when something unknown appears, we ask it its name instead of trying to name it from what we know. There may be another spectrum for us to access. We want everything to match what we have known historically. The tendency to commercialize things, and how humanity itself is on the verge of a leap. How Selig believes that telepathy will be more common in future generations. And what’s next.

Ego vs. higher self, method acting, and support systems in entertainment Receiving feedback and information from the universe and a higher power, and being willing to discern between the ego and higher self and to feel connected. Acting and spirituality, separating oneself so one won’t feel those emotions, and the danger of not knowing yourself that well. Comparisons in dangers of method acting to Dustin Hoffman and Jared Leto and why method acting isn’t for everyone, how support systems in entertainment work only when help is wanted, how Roth’s parents never gave up, and tools and techniques keep him still and pull him back into himself.An intuitive reading, a memoir, and nobody wants to see a tough guy Chan delivers an intuitive reading about a thunderbolt that is true and perfectly ok, having a sense of being out of control, and a sight and experience to behold. A crack in a tree to be remembered and traced, measured tracing as a reminder, sudden and with aftermath. Reflecting on what has been sudden and left a mark, and knowing there is no real damage despite an impression, and being something to be remembered by. A memoir to perform, raw and about abuse, addiction, and sadness. The need for men to talk about things like this, the need for Roth to recognize the destination and what he’s doing with the information, and the ability to be OK. Nobody wants to see a tough guy, and the importance of vulnerability. Changing perception, standing with your mark showing, and allowing people to engage in the way they want. And a new tree-and-roots inspired imagery for the branding for Roth’s memoirs. Plus, Roth shares an experience with the Akashic records in a flotation tank.
Listening to the stories of others… Helena Dea Bala, professional listener, former lawyer, and Storyteller and Listener at Craigslist Confessional, joins Julie Chan for a discussion about the privilege, impact and price of listening to others so they can share their stories. Chan also shared an intuitive reading (profile). Recorded at the MouthMedia Network Studios in New York, powered by Sennheiser.From Albania to Slavania, peace and strength, and a homeless man inspires Bala shares her upbringing, moving from Albania to Slavania with a lot of moving around and instability, working as a lawyer and lobbyist in DC, and listening to people tell stories they never told anyone else, hoping to provide everyone the idea that whatever they are going through there are others who have as well. The peace and strength in sharing that story, not following a linear path, following a gut feeling instead. How the work is scary but fulfilling and a growth experience. How Bala wanted work that felt more like flow than work. And the way a homeless person named Joe reminded her of how people want to ignore difficult situations, and inspired her to listen to other people to help her figure out her path. The Craigslist ad, the floppy gray hat, and the one exception How Bala started using a Craiglist ad to find new people to share their stories, with the invite that she would listen to anything they wanted to get off their chests, with the condition that it must be their story. The floppy felt gray she wore to be identified, why people answer the ads, something that goes along with experience of being an anonymous face in a mass of anonymity desensitizes people, telling a story helps people get away from the now of their lives. People reach out to break out of fear and isolation which helps to know there are other people out there who may also be going through the same thing. People don’t want to see the person they confess to again. And, the one exception.An intuitive reading, ocean waves, and the knowing it will happen Chan offers an intuitive reading of Bal, including serenity, waves crashing in, a moment in time, a memory, peace and longing. Being, watching, observing, staring at the waves that will always reach her feet. Inevitability, reflecting on rhythm. The sense of inevitable reaching and connection. Finding the meaning of home, the feeling of the need to do more, the need to recover, the need to give the people who tell her stories the feeling of home. How Bala is at a tipping point right now, which leads to despair. She heard in the reading that that it will happen for her, with patience. The lack of regularity to her days, the need to strive for rhythm, structure. Being a vessel for people to pour their hearts into.

How sense of groundedness and peace in yoga and meditation fits into helping with issues. How meditation helps bring things up and to our truth and gives us tools to work with. Work with vulnerable populations, making note of when body comes to rest, creating boundaries to take care of ourselves, working with staff now, training others to do what she was doing, activism because of crazy world, and how we live in a culture founded on the three poisons — hatred, greed and delusion. The delusion of power, dharma, and incorporating activism Taking a pause, and seeing humanity in others allows freedom from holding on to others. How we’ve been trained to be competitive, that power is a delusion, and our habit of squashing another to get there. “Power over” vs. “power with”. “This and also” vs. “this, not that”. Leaning into relationships and listening. How people are scared of what they think they already have, that fighting against doesn’t work and the meaning of dharma and why she loves it. A rolling retreat for the March for Racial Justice, her time during the Occupy Wall Street movement, listening to people’s stories, and being involved in many of teachings down there. How she had taken a long time away from activism, and wanted to incorporate activism with her practice and realized people need a space to be human. The expectation in activism to be a martyr, pushing for the movement, but people are exhausted with often a 24hour way of living.Reclaiming energy, taking action, and lifting up together How Booker and others would offer meditation in the park to bring them back to humanity, bring compassion and love for themselves, reclaiming energy. How she started project to support sustainability, so people could be deeper into their bodies – she realized something about integration of mindfulness and activism. How she learned suffering isn’t something we just have to live in and how to navigate working with vulnerable populations. Taking action.

And how lifting up together we can get where we want.

Plus Mason gives Chan a tarot card reading that reveals some big news. Recorded at the MouthMedia Network Studios, powered by Sennheiser.Discovering tarot, Buddhism, and anthropology Mason laments the issue with the word psychic, describes her background in science and physical anthropology, how she was strict Atheist, and went from non-profit to real estate, realized her life outside of these things in alternative wellness modalities, and found she had so many dreams that came true. How she was struggling with diseases, and all of symptoms went away. What was a primary driver to her exploring, when she was introduced to “When Things Fall Apart”, and she finally identified with Buddhism and got into meditation, Shambala. Crossing into the healing, how more and more evidence built, and creating space for whatever wants to come in to come in. Interest in anthropological factors from culture to anatomy, what’s fueling all of it, how she spent a lot of time in philosophy classes in college. Looking at people, pulling from different perspectives to figure them out, and another lens. The tarot as a form of divination using cards, tied to a game in the 1400’s. Overcoming skepticism, tarot as a mirror, and seeing patterns How she originally thought tarot was weird, but was into trying things, felt connected to pictures on the cards, and telling a story. How tarot creates a boundary, pulls from information that’s flowing. How mason is able to give intuitive reading without cards, but it is less draining to use the cards. Skepticism, and the way you’re supposed to receive your first tarot cards. The way tarot acts as a mirror, helping you see context or a story. Overcoming skepticism, applying skepticism to her own tarot experiences, seeing patterns helped eliminate her skepticism, and how it is not her job to alleviate their skepticism. Something is happening with the cards, but when you see something they are a mirror, and show you what you need to see. Is it a self-fulfilling prophecy? Bringing attention to something, is that all there is or is it that attention needs to be brought to it? How Mason feels there is something happening in the world, and see it in the patterns and wishes science could explain more thoroughly.Staying open, physical healing through tarot, and a tarot card reading brings a revelation How people take the info—prescriptive as only a path forward vs. guidance. People are scared of the cards, but there are choices we make in our free will. Nothing is rigid, and when people are rigid is when it doesn’t make sense. Staying open is important. And the most important advice in receiving a tarot reading. Card guidance, what science could and should look at with tarot. Plus, physical healing through tarot and meditation? Is tarot connected to health care? A tarot card reading for Chan reveals some huge news. A pursuit of balance, peace and connections. Action oriented creative ambitions. A conflict, from career to domestic life, and loving the mother card. And the role of intuition in interpreting favorite cards, something important is confirmed, and a product line on the way.

Being in the state of discovery, reflecting on when Richardson might assume she’d react a certain way without knowing the actual result, and being open. A child telling others what to do and being bossy as a child, being perceived as very smart. How the reading reinforced that the way she’s leading her life is not wrong. Being brought up being a very good job candidate, now working for herself. Jelly beans as things on her life that she could be doing, not shunning anything, trying everything and seeing what resonates best. Relating this to a romantic life, if jelly beans were men, her experiences in summer camp for adults, when the brain and heart connect, and relishing each moment that does exist.Being present in discovery, being the happiest, and stepping away from technology The image of a small child methodically lining up jelly beans, how that influences the people around Richardson on the choices she makes, doing new things while living in the moment while doing them, instead of doing something and thinking about the next one.

Recorded at the MouthMedia Network Studios.Wall Street vs. the Universe, quieting the mind, and not using guided meditation Bravo discusses the importance of having proper barriers, having to be mindful at all times, working on Wall Street and embracing logic by day, then being open to the universe at other times. For legality purposes, leaving each world in its own, with no blame, no credit, and just being a “tool”. The key is quieting the mind. Why Bravo does not use guided mediation so that the mind can be quiet, letting whatever is going to come in, come in. How we hold ourselves back in psychic abilities, and it is a passive process, and the need to just feel and know things. Everyone has intuitive ability. Trusting voices in your head, practicing intuition, and the responsibility of psychic predictions Trusting the voice in one’s head, not throwing a moment away. Bravo poses a challenge to the listeners for the next 30 days to be aware of thoughts and stop for a moment. The more one practices the stronger one gets, always in motion weaker or stronger, and that leads to more trust in oneself, toward those abilities becoming normal then natural. Bravo comments on psychic predictions, and how the position of a psychic is very powerful, and having to be careful how psychic abilities and predictions can affect someone, protecting the client from themselves, and the importance of getting other opinions.Bravo’s better model, improving the industry’s reputation, and kindness as a cause Some psychics want you to rely on them, why clients get to see Bravo only once a year, and why his model is a better model for a psychic as more of a life coach and therapist. Negative connotations of the word “psychic”, creating a positive connotation for the word psychic. “Coming out of the closet” as a psychic. The importance of consideration for the field as a whole. Explosion of awareness of psychics via TV, how the government has failed people and that has led to people turning to the psychic industry in the absence of other faith. And kindness as the greatest cause. Plus, Bravo gets emotional when given the opportunity to share. John Edward Tyler Henry Sylvia Browne

Intention, outcome and result, who are we being when speaking, what is the audience experiencing and feeling, and then the result. How we can choose to not be at mercy of inner dialogue we have of not being good enough, and how that dialogue is universal. Purpose and mission is being called to speak, we all have something important to say, are the unique person to share that, and present to that power. If the focus is on oneself, that focus is in the wrong place. Finding one’s voice, “powertalk”, and how to give amazing presentations. The movement of a supreme love community, radical supreme love. How when one does not have one’s voice and not speaking up makes one disappear. Our charge is to communicate, and how commitment must be bigger than concerns.Following up on an intuitive reading, a feline duality, and leading the pride A follow up since the full intuitive purpose reading with Eduardo, being the lion, understanding where he stands in the chain of life, how his ferociousness can be overwhelming when unleashed, how the duality of being a lion and timid cat is his theme, battling the two and learning how to embrace the two.

Leading the pride, just standing in the space of not being a selfish lion, needing the support of the pride, being unapologetic and owning the power, leading from a place of selflessness and abundance, showing up to serve, and making a difference.Reference: The Muslim Jewish Conference
