Hi friends, it's lovely to be back with you after such a long time, thanks for joining us around the virtual hearth today to warm yourself with a story.   I've been working on my novel, integrating my 2023 Camino, and completing a second, shorter Camino in May this year. This time we started from the beautiful Spanish city of Leon. I'll share more in an upcoming episode about the return to the Camino and how that journey continues to so deeply move me in an upcoming episode, but for now, I want to introduce a shining star of a return guest.   Michelle Clare is a psychic-medium and near-death experiencer who I welcomed onto the podcast in an episode that aired on the 15th of November, 2021 (I'll link to it in the description).   This time, Michelle is back to primarily share about her journey of grief following the recent passing of her partner, Gary. This is a good time to let you know that today's episode deals with suicide – if you find this challenging, please reach out for support. In Australia you can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 but please do seek out services appropriate for where you are.   I know that many of you have gone through the shock and grief of the kind of loss Michelle describes, so it's my sincere hope that her story supports you as you navigate your grief in your own way.   I love Michelle's generosity of spirit in sharing her very personal experience of loss, which as she poignantly states, is not bypassed by her calling as a psychic-medium. However, there are aspects of her vocation and experience of multiple NDEs which do offer a perspective that invites in the light and may hopefully support you today if you are grieving the loss of a loved one to suicide.   On that note of offering healing and support, I send you my love and gratitude from a sunshiney Sydney winter's day, as well as “un abrazo infinito” – a never-ending hug.   Enjoy my conversation with Michelle Clare.   Learn more about Michelle and contact her here: https://www.michelleclare.net/   Listen to our previous conversation on the Spirit Sisters podcast: https://spiritsistersthepodcast.podbean.com/e/would-youliketo-stay-or-would-you-like-togo%E2%80%93-thechoice-that-propelled-michelle-clare-back-tolifefromherthirdndeandintoan-acceptance-of-hermedi/       Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Find Karina on YouTube.

You're listening to Spirit Sisters, I'm your host Karina Machado. I'm thrilled to be back with you all. I promised that I'd be popping in with powerful conversations that I hand pick, and here's one. Today, I'm introducing Ben Medhurst. Ben is a husband, dad and tradesman who lives in Queensland. He also happens to be a full-body channel for a discarnate collective who share profound wisdom through him. As Ben shares in his first ever interview, he's been primed for this his entire life. From his childhood growing up amidst the beauty of nature, Ben learnt to connect with a source beyond his physical dimension. Always curious about life's big questions, as a teen, Ben was catapulted into a spiritual world he struggled to comprehend after the death of his elder brother blew open his psychic faculties. A few years later, a profoundly mystical dream paved the way for his apprenticeship with a famous Indian guru, and, eventually, the arrival of the collective who work through him today at this pivotal point in history which the collective calls “the dawning of a new age of truth.” There's so much to Ben's story, I encourage you to listen in for all the extraordinary details and, towards the end, a direct channelling from the group who speaks through Ben. I'm going to welcome Ben back onto the show later on in the year, we'd love you to send questions you'd like me to ask the beings who speak through him. If you're on YouTube, you can drop a comment, or send your questions through my website or social media, all the links are in the show notes.

In 2023, there was a significant surge in reports concerning the unlawful destruction of trees and acts of vandalism in Sydney.  This escalation prompted local councils to urgently appeal to the state government for increased support in prosecuting individuals responsible for harming the city's natural resources. Michael McLaren is joined by Jessica McSweeney, the Breaking news reporter at the Sydney Morning Herald, who analysed council data and discovered that over the past year, local governments received more than 1000 reports detailing instances of trees being damaged or intentionally killed.  Notably, various councils, such as Sutherland Shire, Ku-ring-gai, and Liverpool, witnessed substantial spikes in reports of tree vandalism in 2023 compared to preceding years.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As some of you may know, I had a life-changing experience in June and early July of this year. I walked the Camino de Santiago – the Way of St James – an ancient pilgrimage across Spain. On the full moon morning of July 4, I arrived at the Cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, the capital of the beautiful, mist-shrouded Galicia region, which, as you're about to hear, stole my heart. With her rich heritage of Celtic legends, lore and music, Galicia reunited me with a part of myself I hadn't known was missing.    And so, this episode is different to usual programming; what follows is my reflection on the pilgrimage, specifically, five sacred truths the Camino revealed to me. The path winds, and I follow, friends. I hope this serves. Enjoy.   Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Buy the 10th anniversary edition of Spirit Sisters as a paperback at Booktopia.

2023 will see the return of the WBSC women's baseball world cup for the first time since 2018, so to coincide with this, this season will focus on each of the eight World Cups held since 2004 …….. but with a twist!  A little background before we dive in. Less than 70 Australian women have donned the green and gold for Australia at a World Cup.  I was privileged and honoured to represent Australia at the first six World Cups between 2004 and 2014 and it got me thinking about all the great team mates I had, many of which played one World Cup.  Sometimes I hear people say “I only played one… they only played one….' And I figured we need to stop using the word ‘only'... cos I reckon that to reach the heights of national team selection, whether it is for one, or 6,  or eight World Cups, well, you can play!  So for this upcoming eight-episode series, I will be sharing the stories of some of Australia's One Cup Wonders. Eight amazing women who represented Australia at one of these World Cups!   For the first episode, we head back to the inaugural World Cup in Canada in 2004 to hear Kelly Gunn's story.  A right-handed pitcher from NSW, Kelly Gunn shares her baseball journey which took her from a 13-year-old playing with the boys in Sydney's Sutherland Shire to one of the country's leading pitchers in the early 2000s including being the winning pitcher in New South Wales' first ever Nationals victory in 2003 and on the mound when Australia recorded its first ever victory over Japan at World Cup.  #womensbaseball #womeninbaseball #insidepitch

You're listening to Spirit Sisters. I'm your host, Karina Machado. As always, I'm delighted that you're joining me around the virtual fireside today. And we have quite the story for you to warm yourself by tonight. I was on the train this morning, Spanish guitar playing softly in my earbuds, thinking about what to say in the introduction to this very special episode. This week, I welcome my dear friend Sara back to the podcast. I first interviewed Sara in the early days of the show, in 2019. We recorded a double episode, which I published in September and October of that year, and I've included those links below. Sara has a riveting story to tell. Hers is one of the most profound NDEs I've ever encountered, not just because of the beauty and richness of the experience itself, but also because of the profound repercussions it had on her life, the way it transformed every aspect of her being. Suffice to say that today, she considers herself Sara 2.0, as she shares in our conversation. From a cardiac diagnostic imaging specialist who gave her all to her patients – a rewarding and very demanding career that she adored, though it ran her ragged – to the survivor of a rare auto-immune condition who, post NDE, is driven to heal hearts in a new way. Today, Sara is devoted to sharing the message of her NDE – that love is the essence of who we are and that living true to our soul's purpose is how we ultimately heal. She talks about the Soul Seed planted within each of us and of finding the courage to let it flourish. She also shares her life review in great detail and you'll hear why this was a highlight of her NDE, and how it's still rippling out powerfully in her life today. Keep listening to hear about the Healing Chamber, seeing her beloved father and mentor and other loved ones forming part of a jubilant gathering Sara calls the Welcoming Party, and all about the extraordinary downloads she received about the time and space continuum. This is the story of a woman who's had to find a fresh way to honour her training in medicine as she navigates a new path that's aligned, at last, to her soul purpose. Speaking of taking new paths, tomorrow Sara and I are flying to Spain to walk El Camino de Santiago, the Way of St James. As we head out together with open hearts and faith that the Camino delivers, I will also be cherishing the opportunity to walk towards and through Galicia, mystical land of my great-grandparents. I'm finally walking towards my story, and I have the deep honour of doing that with a soul friend by my side.   At the end of the show, we have some exciting news to share about a collaboration that we trust will water the little Soul Seeds within us.

Karina Machado welcomes psychic-medium Debbie Malone to the podcast. Debbie and I have known each other for many years – I first told her story in my 2009 book Spirit Sisters, and she made another appearance in the follow-up, Where Spirits Dwell. As an internationally acclaimed psychic medium, author, psychic detective and spiritual teacher, Debbie has spent the last 30 years assisting police departments around the globe with high-profile missing persons and murder investigations. A student of the prestigious Arthur Findlay College, Debbie often features in the media and is in high demand for speaking engagements and other appearances. In our interview today, Debbie shares the near-death experience that ignited her psychic gifts and casts back to when her dreams were taken over by two victims of the notorious Backpacker Murders, and how this confronting situation catapulted her into her work as a psychic detective. For listeners who may not be familiar the Backpacker Murders, this refers to Australian serial killer Ivan Milat, who murdered seven young backpackers in NSW between 1989 and 1992. Debbie is certain there are more victims, as she tells us on the show. Aside from her fascinating work as a Psychic-detective, we delve into Debbie's recent foray into channelling, her book Awaken Your Psychic Ability, her thoughts on the current shift in consciousness, and a lot more.

Karina Machado speaks with Jacob King, who's 33 and lives in Melbourne. In October 2021, Jacob had a near-death experience that profoundly transformed his world. Up until that point, Jacob was doing his best to cope with the effects of a traumatic childhood and subsequent drug addiction. “I couldn't understand how all these things could exist side by side,” he says. “Was I a depressed, violent addict, or a spiritual and loving person? Could I ever heal from my trauma, or was I always going to be damaged and dysfunctional? Am I just a victim of circumstances, or something else? Who am I? These questions baffled me until the age of 32, where I had my NDE and met God in person. I took the opportunity to ask these questions to his face. His answers changed my life.” Jacob is still integrating his recent NDE but is now committed to a life of service through sharing his story. In our conversation, we talk about moments when he realised how his story had a healing effect on others. “I feel as though my life plan is to help a lot of people through speaking about what I've learned, and the things I continue to learn. But this plan isn't mine. I've surrendered my life to a higher power, so I just want to be an open vessel to be used as needed. So far, the results have been better than anything I could have planned on my own.” Please note, Jacob's story references suicidal thoughts.

You're listening to Spirit Sisters, I'm your host, Karina Machado. I'm back after a long break, grateful for your patience and lovely messages. I experienced a challenging time towards the end of last year and I felt I had to press pause on the podcast and a few other things in order to look after myself.  And so, in the spirit of creating and healing, I'm so happy to share this episode with you this week. My guest is Chrissy, a teacher specialising in wellbeing who lives in Victoria. Chrissy has had a lifetime of fascinating encounters with the spirit world, and we're concentrating on three key stories in this episode. From a heart-stopping brush with a spirit man when she was a little girl, to the chilling, yet poignant experiences of her adult years, Chrissy draws us close around the virtual fireside today as she explores the defining spiritual encounters of her life. Of these, there's one in particular that Chrissy will never forget, involving a pair of siblings searching for their parents in Victoria's historic Ballarat region. There's an intriguing postscript to this story which offers clues as to the identity of the children Chrissy saw. She recently discovered that there had been an orphanage built in 1865 just minutes away from where Chrissy was staying when she met the children… I'll be posting about this on social media, so check out my Facebook and Instagram pages for that.   For now, enjoy my conversation with Chrissy, telling the story of spirits who dwell in the threshold between worlds.   Listen to the interview with previous podcast guest Danielle, which I mention in the episode: https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-rhjnq-f7c9bc   Listen to the interview with previous guest Rhonda, who also saw “the visitors”: https://www.podbean.com/eas/pb-mis77-1201e31   Listen to my book Where Spirits Dwell on Audible: https://www.audible.com.au/pd/Where-Spirits-Dwell-Audiobook/1489357823?source_code=SEMPP30DTRIAL4510830220001&ipRedirectOverride=true&gclid=CjwKCAjw5P2aBhAlEiwAAdY7dF4YCw2Rgfgl32Ywb7CUknFyRqC74411hHydi_vfs5nFtNzDjH0PPRoC_gwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds     Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Buy the 10th anniversary edition of Spirit Sisters as a paperback at Booktopia.

Welcome to our special Halloween episode on Spirit Sisters with Karina Machado. I thought it only fitting that I share a haunted house story today. What makes it extra special is that I had the opportunity to catch up with Nell Jones, whose story features in my book Where Spirits Dwell. Nell is a retired teacher and writer who lives in Stockton, an historic beachside suburb in the NSW city of Newcastle. The traditional custodians of these lands and waters are the Awabakal and Worimi Peoples. In 2000, Nell bought a derelict, century-old cottage that had once been a general store. The home signified a fresh start for Nell and her then teenaged daughter, but as they would come to discover, they'd have to share it with a cast of spirit visitors. From a vintage dame in a stylish frock, to a smelly coal miner and little girls playing in the backyard, the place “was packed with ghosts,” as a paranormal investigator declared. At the height of the haunting, Nell called in the investigator from the Australian Institute of Parapsychological Research; his name is Robb Tilley and there's a chapter about his case files in Where Spirits Dwell. As Nell shares in our conversation, Robb performed a house clearing but even all these years later, Nell still has a sense that she has company in the house.   Enjoy Nell's story about her beloved home, portal to the past.   Listen to my book Where Spirits Dwell on Audible: https://www.audible.com.au/pd/Where-Spirits-Dwell-Audiobook/1489357823?source_code=SEMPP30DTRIAL4510830220001&ipRedirectOverride=true&gclid=CjwKCAjw5P2aBhAlEiwAAdY7dF4YCw2Rgfgl32Ywb7CUknFyRqC74411hHydi_vfs5nFtNzDjH0PPRoC_gwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds   Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Buy the 10th anniversary edition of Spirit Sisters as a paperback at Booktopia.

Karina Machado presents the second episode in the Psychic September mini-series. These are conversations with a diverse group of psychic-mediums, people of different ages, genders and at varying stages in their journey of their lives and of their calling as one who links the living with loved ones beyond the veil. (This is all about sharing life experiences, not endorsing a business, as I haven't had readings with any of them. I might do so one day, but I haven't yet. As always, this is all about speaking from the heart as we build bridges of connection to each other through our stories.) It's my pleasure to introduce you today to David Gammal, who's based in Sydney's inner-west. Dave has always known that he had a psychic ability, but didn't know what that meant. Going through life-changing challenges throughout his 20s taught Dave to embrace his ability and use it to give back to others. Service is a theme in Dave's life, as you're about to hear. Dave actually honed his abilities as a support worker for people with disabilities, which I found fascinating. I really enjoyed Dave's warmth and candour as he shared his story with me. Dave talks about his struggles to try and fit in as a young person, battling low self-esteem, people-pleasing tendencies and of the gifts he's come to recognise were in the darkest moments. He shares about his mentor, psychic-medium Debbie Malone, and how her book helped put him on the right path. He takes us through the nuts and bolts of a reading and about how to avoid connecting with low-frequency spirits. At the end, he shares a beautiful message of hope for anyone who's grieving a loved one. There's a lot we cover in an hour. I really enjoyed my conversation with David Gammal, I hope you do too.

You're listening to Spirit Sisters. I'm your host, Karina Machado. Thank you for tuning in. I have something a little different today: the first conversation in a mini-series I'm calling ‘Psychic September.' Throughout the month of September, I'm bringing you conversations with a diverse group of psychic-mediums. Before we launch into the series, I'd like to point out that this is about sharing the life experiences of psychic-mediums, I'm not endorsing their businesses, as I haven't had readings with any of them. As always, this is all about speaking from the heart as we share our stories. We're starting today with Kate Lowe, who lives in Victoria. Kate had a thriving career in PR and marketing but her soul always called her to live her spiritual truth. During Covid, she channelled an idea to support children learning at home and its success gave her the impetus to launch out on her own, finally doing the work she loves – being a psychic-medium – full-time, on her own terms. As she says, “I just decided that I wanted to be me; I wanted to be all of me.” Today, Kate shares the astounding story of Amelia, a spirit child who reached out to her in a dream, and that proved to be just the beginning of an extraordinary sequence of events, as you're about to hear from Kate.

Karina Machado welcomes Ash Perrow. Ash is an Australian musician, and creative freedom coach. In 2016, Ash had a near death experience (NDE) following complications from back surgery. He experienced leaving his body and returned to it with the awareness that he was permitted to stay ‘for the work that he does and to walk the planet from his heart'. Since then, he has been exploring the barriers to being our truest version of ourselves and helping others to do the same. Along this path, he left his teaching job and returned to writing, sharing and performing music, as well as engaging in deep personal work to discover what prevents us from living a life from the heart. Ash is passionate about helping people to create a life they love, as you're about to discover. As Ash unspooled his story, our conversation branched out in a number of fruitful directions, and I've included links in the show notes to everything we discussed, in case you'd like to explore further. Also, for the first time on the Spirit Sisters podcast, I've included a musical interlude! Ash kindly contributed one of his beautiful songs, called “I'm moving on,” featuring Naomi Connell. Music is such a big piece of Ash's life, so this seems another meaningful way for Ash to share his story – and his heart – with us all on the show today.

You're listening to Spirit Sisters. I'm your host, Karina Machado, thank you for joining us today, for part two of my conversation with Australian spiritual teacher and author Tash McKenna. What does forgiveness mean to you? As I publish this podcast, mainstream news sites tell of the Abdallah family from the Sydney suburb of Oatlands, who were invited to share their extraordinary story of forgiveness with the Vatican. On a summer's day in 2020, the Abdallahs lost three of their six children – Sienna, Angelina and Antony – to a driver affected by drugs and alcohol. The kids were on a walk to buy ice-cream, and their cousin, Veronique, also died. What caught the world's attention was the way Danny and Leila Abdallah publicly forgave the driver. They talk about forgiveness as a means to heal and “not retreat into hatred”. As I honour the Abdallahs and their immense courage, I think of what forgiveness has meant to me over the years. What I've found is that where there is unforgiveness, there is no growth or life or flourishing of creativity. There is no progress or joy. We cannot access love from a space of unforgiveness and that must always be to everyone's detriment. In part two of our conversation today, Tash McKenna shares how she arrived at her teaching of "Truforgiveness," a tool that she has discovered to be utterly transformational in her journey of trauma to peace.  If you haven't listened to part one with Tash, please scroll down and listen to that first so that you can follow on. In the first episode, Tash told us about how, as an eight-year-old trauma survivor, she heard the audible voice of God, an encounter which sparked the beginning of a 40-year spiritual odyssey that led her into deepest suffering. Today, Tash shares how receiving the teachings of The Treasure Map of Truforgiveness, FAITH & the ‘I Forgive' Principle, lit a way out of the darkness for her, and her hopes that they may also support others who are struggling. In this episode, Tash also shares more about her understanding of time, about dreams she had two decades ago that planted the seed for her work today, and about the ways we constantly project our turmoil outwardly unless we awaken from ego identification. As Tash says, “What's inside of you is what you experience outside of yourself in time.” We also discuss how the work of healing ourselves is essentially what heals us all. Editing the podcast, it struck me that Tash's teachings echo the Hawaiian spiritual tradition of Ho'oponopono, which some of you might already know. It too lays out forgiveness as a path to inner peace and teaches that we must forgive within in order to see results without. In the practice of Ho'oponopono we're encouraged to repeat the words “I'm sorry, please forgive me, I love you, thank you”. As with Tash's Treasure Map, this mantra is intended to undo false beliefs in our subconscious mind in order to transform our outer experience. As in our first episode, Tash launches the show with a mini Treasure Map of forgiving within, a rhythmic song of prayer to open our conversation. In my imagination, these words of forgiveness are released like doves of peace into our hurting world. Again, I invite you to open wide your heart and mind to it and take your time with these teachings, which reference A Course in Miracles. Click here to learn more about A Course in Miracles, which I consider the most extraordinary channelled text of the 20th century. Tash has also kindly offered our listeners 10 prize packs of The Treasure Map e-book, and a “Course in Miracles Explained” mini course, which includes a meditation and journal prompts. These will go to the first 10 people to message me via my website, karinamachado.com, so drop me a line.  Before we begin, please note that this episode references an eating disorder and acute PTSD.

Trauma, “Truforgiveness” and a Promise from God – Natasha McKenna reveals her 40-year journey to healing and purpose

In 1982, Michael Jackson released his Thriller album; the Australian Prime Minister was Malcolm Fraser, Prince William was born and E.T. The Extra Terrestrial premiered in cinemas … and, in her bedroom in a beachside suburb east of Sydney, an 8-year-old called Natasha McKenna received a visit from God. Tash, as she's known, is my guest today on Spirit Sisters, in part one of a two-part conversation. Tash is a spiritual teacher and Truforgiveness healer. As an eight-year-old trauma survivor, hearing the audible voice of God make her a promise sparked the beginning of a 40-year spiritual odyssey that pushed her to the depths of despair. Throughout her life, with a Commerce Degree to lean on, Tash has worked a myriad of roles, including talent booker and marketing manager before being guided to dedicate her life entirely to bringing through the teachings she's received. Tash is the author of The Treasure Map of Truforgiveness, FAITH & the ‘I Forgive' Principle. In Tash's words, “this is the true way to forgive that has been gifted by God. It is how you change your mind from the wrong mind of judgment and attack to the right mind of peace and love that precedes spiritual awakening. It is how you truly heal and make miracles your own.” As you'll hear in the opening minutes, Tash and I are friends, having met in unlikely circumstances years ago. We also found out we were both students of the spiritual self-study text, A Course in Miracles, a channelled work which teaches forgiveness as a path to healing and inner peace. What Tash teaches is a kind of corollary to A Course in Miracles, or ACIM, in that she offers how to actually forgive from the Right Mind – you'll hear her refer to that a lot – and not the ego mind, which only brings about a false forgiveness. Tash was instructed to call her process, “Truforgiveness,” and she shares a fascinating story about how that unfolded. She also reveals her near-death experience and other mystical experiences, including a profound journey “outside of time.” This is a challenging episode, and an advanced teaching, so I invite you to open wide your heart and mind to it and take your time. Tash, who was raised in a non-religious setting, uses traditional Christian terms in fresh and surprising ways, much like ACIM. For instance, her definition of God is “the Wholeness of Perfect Love … beingness over bodily identification.” Before we begin, please note that this episode references suicide, eating disorders, substance abuse and PTSD.

Thanks for joining me around the virtual fireside for another uplifting story. I'm recording this intro on a full moon and eclipse. This isn't my area of expertise but I have it on good authority that this is significant, and certainly I can feel it. Individually and collectively, we are all going through so much. For me, this is a time of profound shifts and a reckoning. I wonder how many of you can relate to that? I feel very guided through this by various disincarnate loving beings, including my ancestors. I'm feeling the calling to write a new book very intensely. While I'm very drawn to fiction, there are also non-fiction ideas brewing around the topics and stories we discuss on the Spirit Sisters podcast. I was prodded to share this with you today because I know that so many of you will relate to the pull to do something that truly honours your soul. Tell me about it, I'd love to hear. I actually had to discard two earlier versions of this intro because it didn't say what my heart wanted to say.  None of this is to say that I'm going to turn away from the podcast, but I hope that you can be patient with me as I navigate this terrain. I know how much these stories mean to you all so I'll keep putting them out there and growing this lovely community. You all feel like family to me and I treasure the words you write to me about how the episodes lift your heart when little else will. So thank you. Now that I've shared that, and speaking of heart-lifting stories, let me tell you about today's episode. My guest is Paula Lenz. Paula had a truly extraordinary spiritual experience in 1983, days after her beloved brother Donnie died in an accident. Amazingly enough, her out of body experience happened while she was driving his car. While her spirit was reunited with Donnie, her body safely steered the car to its destination. Fascinating. In our conversation today, Paula shares in detail about her spiritually transformative experience, about the blissful wonder of hanging out in the “oneness” with her beloved Donnie, and and the many ways he continues to reach out to her. She also offers a message for anyone who's grieving someone they love, and she tells us about the technique she's created called M.I.S.T, MIST, which stands for Meld Into Spirit Technique, a simple way, she says, to enable our connection with the world beyond our physical senses. There's a lot more, of course. Enjoy my conversation with Paula Lenz. And if you love Spirit Sisters, please subscribe, rate and review the show. It helps others to find their way to these stories and that, after all, it's what it's all about.   Connect with Paula at https://paulalenz.wixsite.com/paulalenz Click here for Paula's free M.I.S.T technique - Meld Into Spirit   Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Buy the 10th anniversary edition of Spirit Sisters as a paperback at Booktopia.

Angel of Hope - After tragedy, an unearthly visitor brought light back into Rhonda's life

Karina Machado presents an original voice from her 2009 book Spirit Sisters. Rhonda Rice, a scripture teacher from Sydney, tells a story that encompasses various spiritual and paranormal threads. Rhonda has experienced otherworldly encounters since she was a little girl doing her best to cope with the tragic loss of her baby sister, Laurel. In the wake of that devastating day, an angelic encounter paved the way for a lifetime of mystical encounters.  In her 30s, Rhonda had a near-death experience and in her 50s, she began to see “the visitors,” as she calls them, strangers who look absolutely alive who materialise beside her bed. Today, in her 80s, Rhonda continues to have spiritually transformative experiences. At the beginning of our conversation, Rhonda shared a story about being on a cruise just before Covid, and having an accident that should have seen her seriously injured or worse. Instead, she felt herself supernaturally lifted “in a whoosh,” as she described it, to safety onto the bed. Earlier, Rhonda's partner had insisted she come and see an artwork onboard the ship. As it happened, the piece depicted a beautiful angel. Later, Rhonda reflected on that as she came through her mishap unscathed. She believes it's the same guardian angel she met as a child. Angels figure prominently in Rhonda's story, especially when she describes the aftermath of the unfathomable family tragedy. I wrote in my book Love Never Dies that stories are “memorials built of words and hewn with love, not cold stone or marble,” and Rhonda's story reminds me of that. Yes, it's a slice of Australian history, a first-hand account of days gone by, but beyond that, it ensures that a precious toddler called Laurel will never be forgotten. Rhonda's story appears as "Faith's Envoy" in Spirit Sisters (Hachette Australia 2009). Her account of seeing the visitors is included in Chapter 1.   Connect with Karina Machado at karinamachado.com Buy the 10th anniversary edition of Spirit Sisters as a paperback at Booktopia.

Karina Machado welcomes a special guest with a wondrous story, or three, to share. My guest is Leesa Anderson and she's a storyteller extraordinaire. Leesa has a background in the corporate world and lives in beautiful Montana, USA, with her family. She has a lifetime of mystical experiences behind her, stretching back to her childhood growing up on a ranch feeling very close to God amid spectacular natural surrounds, but she's only recently decided it's the right time to begin sharing these stories with the world. As Leesa told me after we'd stopped recording this episode, “These stories are not about me, they're about the Truth behind me.” Leesa says that what's important right now is to share the hope that these stories offer to whoever is in need. Today, this was me. Perhaps it's you, too. “What's welling up in me is to release the sense of love in these stories,” she says. Yes, love abounds in these yarns, as you're about to here. In fact, it's the very agent of the miracles Leesa describes.
