You can homeschool for free and on a shoestring budget! Don't believe Carrie? Then join her for this week's summertime podcast special. When Carrie chose to quit her job so she could homeschool her children becoming a one income family was a huge adjustment. Many sacrifices had to be made. Carrie and her husband learned how to rely on God to provide exactly what their family needed exactly when it was needed. During the really lean seasons, Carrie also got real creative and figured out some very thrifty ways to homeschool for next to nothing. Homeschooling does not have to be an expensive endeavor. You can homeschool with little income (and without charter school funds). Pour yourself a cup of coffee. Don't go to Starbucks. (Save yourself some money). Then sit back, relax, and join Carrie for a little coffee break. For links, books, and activities mentioned in this week's podcast, go to Coffee With Carrie Website.

Ken: We have Carrie Mikell, Carrie is a mother of 3 children ages 6-1 and has been married to the love of her life for over 7 years. She has a bachelor's degree in business with an emphasis in finance from Brigham Young University and has been working in the financial services industry for over ten years now. Previously she focused her attention on high-net-worth retirees but recently decided she finds more joy in helping younger families achieve their dreams. When Carrie isn't working on her business or cleaning up after her three small children, she can often be found in the great outdoors enjoying nature and taking her children on grand adventures. Welcome to the Show Carrie Carrie: It's important to say that I'm first and foremost passionate about life's adventures. I've traveled the world, lived and worked in 5 different countries, climbed mountains and repelled down 250ft cliffs to see sights very few people get to see, etc. I wrote my first bucket list when I was 16 and have been checking things off ever since. I've only been able to do this because of the personal finance principles I learned early on. As such, I've gained an additional passion in helping individuals and young families achieve their dreams, and I do this through sound financial coaching. As someone who is naturally logical and pragmatic, I enjoy the strategizing and quantitative work. I'm also greatly enjoying building my team, specifically focusing on incredibly talented women. I feel that I'm in a unique position to widen the world of financial consulting and make it more inclusive. Ken: What is the toughest thing you have had to overcome in your life? Carrie: It's a long mess of a story, but I was essentially homeless during my senior year of high school. Getting myself through school and supporting myself financially -- especially at that age -- was a major struggle, but one that has helped shape me into who I am today. We also talked about What is the biggest goal you are working on right now? Many people have fear and secrecy around money. Why is that and how do they get past it? If there were only three truths that you leave for this world and your posterity, what 3 truths would you leave for them that could lead them to have an amazing life? My knowledge, hopefully a little more peace and understanding, opportunities. We really aren't a family that focuses on obtaining things but we are big on experiences and we hope that those experiences give our children and others a greater understanding of all the good and beauty there is out there in the world.

When Carrie dared to dream, it soon turned a nightmare. She worked hard sewing a beautiful satin gown for prom and when bullies decided to ruin it with pig’s blood, she was understandably upset. Did she overreact? Maybe a tad, but she was just doing what came naturally. Should Carrie have just stayed home on Prom night in the prayer closet with Mama? Or was she right to take her dirty pillows out for a night on the town? Take a peek and find out!

Okay, you all. We know this is harsh, but it’s truth time. Life isn’t about random interactions. Success isn’t about it either. When Carrie became Andrew Yang’s Twitter friend, it made her super happy, but it didn’t actually do anything for her. When the Rock retweeted her tweet about disabilities… Full disclosure: Carrie has no depth perception and also has epilepsy. …but when that happened? It was cool because it was the Rock, but it didn’t make her suddenly more successful or cooler. The Rock would never remember that retweet. Andrew Yang isn’t going to remember being Carrie’s Twitter friend. It was a nice moment, but Carrie doesn’t really need that moment to make her feel cooler or more validated as a human being. That’s because though she presents as really insecure, she’s actually pretty cool with herself. And other people’s perceptions – even when they are the Rock or Andrew Yang? They don’t matter. There’s a guy in our town who is a bit off and he thinks we are basically Satan incarnate. Does Shaun care? Not one for one freaking second. Why? Because he knows who the hell he is. He’s cool with himself. For the same reason when there are rumors about him or Carrie or even his bffs, does he care? Nope. That’s because he knows he’s the sh*t. He knows who he is. It’s confidence, but it’s also about knowing that you can’t control what other people think about you all the time. But there’s another side to this, too. You want to connect with your people, your readers, your audience, your friends, by being you, your authentic self, and you can’t do that if you’re busy worrying about what everyone else is thinking about you. When you’re all ME ME ME all the time because you need to be an influencer or sell your book or whatever, you lose who you are and any connections you get? They aren’t even about you. They are about the false perception of you. But it’s more than that, too. When all you care about is people’s perceptions of you, you stop caring about people. And then, you’re basically an egotistical sh*t. Is that who you want to become? No. So, focus on the work. Focus on making connections where you care about the other person. Having the Rock retweet you doesn’t mean you’re going to be a movie star or an international bestseller. What makes you succeed is the work you do, the care you give, the problems you help other people with. Carrie is a successful novelist. Her books have won awards, been NYT and international bestsellers, but that’s because she took the time to learn to write and to understand people. She now uses those skills to help other people write their own books. And those people? The ones she coaches and teaches and gets to know so well as they make their stories? Those are the people that matter to Carrie, that make her a success. Not the Rock. No offense to the Rock! Pretending to be someone else, being preoccupied with others’ perceptions of you? It destroys you. Don’t be destroyed. Celebrate who you are and who other people are too. Dog Tip For Life Be the dog you’re meant to be. Have your values align with your actions. And bark a lot about it if that’s your thing. For the rest of the tips and notes, check out Carrie's blog here. SHOUT OUT!

THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU! THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU! THEY'RE ALL GONNA LAUGH AT YOU! For Episode 59 we are excited to finally discuss CARRIE 1976, directed by Brian De Palma and inspired by the 1974 novel of the same title by Stephen King. We immediately meet shy and mistreated Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) when she is bullied by her classmates and most authority figures while experiencing puberty. Even worse, she has not been raised in a household of comfort nor science. When Carrie gets mad from constant badgering, she usually suppresses it until she realizes she wields a magnificent power and can begin to take control of her life. When one of the most popular boys in school asks her to Prom, for the first time she sees all of her dreams coming true. But as Murphy's Law follows suit, this dream prom night is halted into Carrie's personal hell. Does Carrie hold a special place in your hearts? Do you like any of the remakes/sequels or have you read the book?? Let us know what you love or hate about the 1976 interpretation of Carrie!

When Carrie and I began recording The Perks of Being a Book Lover, we called it our half-assed idea. One year later, we are still half-assing our way through it, although we think we have learned some things and gotten more adept at using microphones, troubleshooting the recording technology, and asking interesting questions of our guests. It was a year filled with laughter, frustrations, and climbing learning curves. We thought it would be fun for our 1-year anniversary recording and 47th episode to put ourselves in the hot-seat, and fortunately, Carrie's daughter, Norah, agreed to ask us the questions. Like a lot of 16-year-olds, she was excited to do it the night before but seemed to be completely bored and uninterested during the actual interview. She yawned and Pinterest-ed her way through our answers, which may be what a lot of our listeners do as well as they listen to it. In this episode, we discuss how we started the show, some of our favorite experiences with guests, and what dictatorial book choices we'd make if we had the power.

In 2017, farm accidents resulted in the deaths of 416 farmers and farmworkers. Every day, about 100 agricultural workers suffer a lost-work-time injury. In 2014, an estimated 12,000 youth were injured on farms; 4,000 of these injuries were due to farm work. These statistics from the CDC are sobering. But these events are preventable. On the podcast this week, Carrie and I share some personal stories. Both of our families have been deeply affected by farm accidents. Our hope is that by sharing our stories, others can take a second to stop, think and look around to prevent these casualties from happening to other families. This week on the podcast, Carrie Mess (a.k.a. Dairy Carrie) and I sit down for another Over A Beer episode. If you haven't already, you should subscribe to my podcast (RSS link) to listen to all previous episodes. You can find those episode show notes here. Thanks to our sponsor (Yes! We finally have sponsors) David Hayden from Kentucky for buying us a beer (and bourbon). If you'd like to buy us a beer or get me to Wisconsin for future episodes, hit me up on Venmo. As I've tried to write out some notes for this blog, I just can't seem to hit the mark. When Carrie and I sat down to record this episode, it was uncomfortable, but we know sharing these stories is important. Both of our families have been affected by farm accidents and I think that is one of those things you'd never wish on others. In 2006, I lost my mom to an accident while sorting cattle on our ranch in Arkansas. This was long before I met Carrie and her husband Patrick. In 2015, Carrie's mother in law lost a leg in an accident with their feed truck. I remember Carrie's call that day when she told me about the events unfolding. Every time I hear of others impacted by these events, my mind goes back to my own personal story. Farm safety is an important topic for us both. We hope that you'll take the time to listen to our stories and reflect on how you might prevent future farm accidents for those around you.

Take a look at the labels on food packages near you or in your kitchen. What do you see? These food labels can confusing, leading to misinformation and often guilty feelings that we're not doing the right thing for ourselves and our family. How do we filter through the marketing to understand what labels have true meaning? How can and should the agriculture community join in to clear the air on these topics? Or did we help contribute to the confusion of food labels? This week on the podcast, Carrie Mess (a.k.a. Dairy Carrie) and I sit down for another Over A Beer episode to discuss.. You can find those episode show notes here. Thanks to our sponsors (Yes! We finally have sponsors) Chad Anglin from Kentucky and Markie Hageman from California for buying us a beer. If you'd like to buy us a beer or get me to Wisconsin for future episodes, hit me up on Venmo. When Carrie and I sat down for this episode of the podcast, there were two label terms that were top of mind for us. Antibiotics and Hormones. Both things that spark emotion in us with the concern of these contaminants being in our food supply. Is it safe to eat? Is there reason for those labels to be there at all when we know there are regulations and inspection procedures in place to ensure food safety? We've both written about these topics before as restaurant chains have capitalized on labeling trends. But we also recognize the fact that this is marketing. And in some ways, agriculture advocates may have contributed to the hysteria and concern surrounding food labels, including Non-GMO Project, or any number of free-from labeling trends. We really shouldn't blame consumers for asking questions and being confused. There are so many options in the market today. As Carrie describes, her local grocery store is putting in a new section of coolers to be stocked solely with dairy options. Be sure to stay tuned as we describe some terms we've used that we now realize could be misinterpreted (cows on drug withdrawls?!?) and offer a few key tactics advocates can use to better engage in these discussions with others. This includes word choice and listening. Let us know what you think about food labels and confusion in the marketplace by dropping a comment below or chiming in on Twitter. Like what you see here?

Transcription Andrew McGregor: Welcome to another episode of the Hermit's Lamp podcast. I'm here today with Toni Puhle. And I met Toni at Readers Studio, which is a big card reader convention event in New York City in the spring every year, and I really enjoyed their approach to working with the cards, because unlike some of the more maybe popular stuff that I was running into or had been running into, Toni is deep into the fortune-telling side, deep into the sort of more European practices and decks like Lenormand and other things that have been going on for a long time, but for some reason never really gained their popularity in North America, but have been doing so in the last number of years. So for those who don't know who you are, Toni, why don't you give us a quick introduction? Toni Puhle: I am Toni, I'm also known as the Card Geek on social media and founder of the World Divination Association. I teach systems, I teach students around the world how to to read systems like Kipper cards, gypsy cards, and also Lenormand and how to go back to basics and do the predictive-style reads of the old-fashioned fortune tellers. On top of that I teach the spiritual side of life, such as pendulum dowsing, pendulum healing, also symbol healing, all kinds of courses that I have through my years learned and what I ... I tend to teach what is important to me or important to me as a person, and I am a practicing Hoʻoponopono teacher, and if you mix all that in together with a super practical person who loves theoretical physics, who loves the theory of everything and try to break my brain daily on quantum physics, quantum field theory, and how we can actually explain all this amazing spiritual stuff we are doing, but in a super practical way. Toni Puhle: And then if you throw in some Marvel characters and generally a whole heap of superheroes, you've got a rounded version of who I am. I'm from the UK, you can tell by the tone, but I'm currently living in Munich, Germany, so speaking German and English. So if I do lose a word as we're talking, it's probably because my mind is in German mode. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), totally fair. Well I'll just remind you and you can be like "Oh yeah, yeah, English." Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Okay, so very important question. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Current favorite Marvel character? Toni Puhle: Oh, I have so many, I can't choose one. I love Dr. Strange, I love Thor. Iron Man is my all time favorite and- Andrew McGregor: Of course. Toni Puhle: ... that will never change. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Spoiler alert, he saves the world. Toni Puhle: And I also love Loki, I like both sides of the coin in Marvel. Andrew McGregor: Nice. Yeah, Marvel stuff gets a lot of play around my house. Toni Puhle: I also have two boys and I've pushed them in that direction so I can actually watch more. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Well that's your job as a parent, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: I remember there was a time probably around when my kids started being like five and six where I was like "How about we not watch that, how about we try this instead? Hey look at this Spider-Man thing, hey look at Scooby Doo, these are great." Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: As opposed to some of the other stuff where you're just like, "If I have to listen to that again my head's just going to melt right out of my ears, I can't deal with it," so ... Toni Puhle: I absolutely love going back with the kids as well, because Lloyd, my eldest, he is sort of a retro kid, he loves to go back to what I used to watch as a kid and then talk through it with me. And we talk daily on the way to school, we talk daily about the theories of Marvel and who or what movies are coming out next and the properties of each superhero and how we would use that property if we had it in our lives, and I think that's also a spiritual side to life where you also consider what you would do if you could. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, well, and I think that that's one of the parts of magic, right? What would we do if we could, and then how can we? Toni Puhle: Yes. And that's also throwing the physics in there, because there is the practical sense to it as well, is there any way we can explain how we could possibly do that in the future? Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yeah. My eldest, we always have these conversations after stuff, like the Ant-Man movie where they end up in the "quantum realm," right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And my eldest is just like "That's not how it works, that's not even a thing. They just made that up so it'd look good in the movie." Toni Puhle: But I love it that she thinks that. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, for sure, right? And they really, it was one of the things that when they started homeschooling, they went to the library and one of the first books they checked out was Quantum Particle Theory. Toni Puhle: Amazing. Andrew McGregor: I was just like "That's awesome. You're 10 and that's what you want to read, great." Rock on. Toni Puhle: Amazing. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. So maybe let's start with this. Hoʻoponopono, what is it? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: It's a lovely-sounding word, what does it mean and what's it about? Toni Puhle: It is. It's actually quite misunderstood, it's called the art of forgiveness. It comes from Hawaii, and I actually learned about it probably eight years ago, maybe more. And I started doing the prayer, and the prayer is quite simple. "I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you." And like most people who start with Hoʻoponopono, at the beginning I thought I was sending people into balloons or bubbles and light and letting them go into the distance, the art of forgiving other people. Toni Puhle: But actually when I researched it and started living the Hoʻoponopono prayer, it is about taking responsibility for our actions right now in this moment in time. It's a belief system that we are all one, the collective consciousness if you like, the return to zero, the null state at which we are born in spirit, and then returning to that. Because everything that's incoming these days, all this information, social media especially, everything that's incoming is all something that we deal with, we react to something, and they're actually only physical things in the physical human existence, but if we return or if we can find a way to return to our nullness, our voidness, then we don't need to react. The need has gone, and you react in a very different way than you would have before. You may act angry or you may act hurt. We're taking responsibility for any problem that arises and we're saying "Okay, we're here and we send the prayer up to this nullness, this void." Toni Puhle: Some people will call it God, other people will call it void, but you send your prayer up and you are taking responsibility for your part of returning to void. And the more we cleanse, the more we return to void. Cleanse is just saying the prayer, technically. More you return to void, and the more even and more neutral you are as a person, I had times where I would have outbursts, et cetera. If I'm in the car and somebody had annoyed me while driving, I was not the calmest person. And it was when I realized that I actually needed to sort me out first, and that's where Hoʻoponopono really sent me on the path of accepting responsibility for me. Andrew McGregor: I think it's so important, right? I think that we all need to find that understanding of where we are and what we're responsible for and what we control, and all of those things in a way that allows us to be freer to be in the moment, maybe is a good way to put it. Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly. And I think also, there is this part of me that does want to break my brain and learn as much as possible, but it's also important to filter out which bit of that learning is important for now. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, for sure. Toni Puhle: And taking responsibility for learning the right parts for you, and also taking responsibility to accept that you don't know everything. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Well, and I think that my question for you then is, right, so if you're returning to null and to void, or whatever we want to call those things, where do you exist in that? What are you in that? Toni Puhle: I am null and void. I am a part of the void. It's not commonly accepted, and the physics world don't like to hear it, but I strongly believe that quantum field theory will give us more information on the null state, more information on the void state. They call it a field, I call it a void. And I am part of that void, as we all are. My human existence is completely separate to that void at times, when I lose sight of who I really am. But then the ... Sorry, go ahead. Andrew McGregor: Well, so are you nothing, then? Are you nobody? Are you just that void state? Toni Puhle: No, I am- Andrew McGregor: Where's the part of you that is driven to start this World Divination Association? That doesn't sound very null or void. What's that distinction? Toni Puhle: The distinction is that when you are in null or void, that is when the inspiration comes in. That's when the information comes in that is useful. We're so used to hearing white noise all the time that we can't actually hear, null or void may be the wrong word for it, but we can't actually hear the information that is important. So until I enter my state of null or void, the information that's coming out of me may not be the best information for everybody else. Toni Puhle: And the WDA was a spark of inspiration. The Kipper book I wrote was something that came to me and I had to do it and I had to do it immediately. And it feels like a drive, and I use the word void because I can't explain it, in my psychic development courses, I can't explain it in any other way than your head has to be empty. There has to be no external information coming in except that spark from above or except that message, if you want to call it a message. So the returning to void is more of a state than a being. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, it reminds me of the idea that we need to just find that deep, deep silence, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: And we don't just mean, by deep silence we don't just necessarily mean stop thinking, but actually- Toni Puhle: No. Andrew McGregor: ... stop identifying with anything, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: You know, and there's a meditation that I often do with people where it's like, you go through and sort of dissociate from your body, dissociate from your emotions, dissociate- Toni Puhle: Exactly that. Andrew McGregor: ... from your thinking, and your memories and so on and so on and so on, dissociate from the world, and then you get to a place where there's something left. And it's- Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: ... definitely you. Toni Puhle: That's you, that's what I call void. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: Personally, and I think people who have or suffer with depression actually understand that feeling a lot better without even realizing it than people who don't. So I think depression has a lot to do with spirituality or where we are on our spiritual journey, and that emptiness isn't ... Sometimes a horrible feeling if you aren't used to it, it is an emptiness, like you say. And there's something leftover, but you're not sure what. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, I mean, it can be that long Dark Night of the Soul piece, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Like who wrote that, St. John of the Cross? There's a book on that, right? And that place where it's like, you find despair so that you can find the light. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: But I think that that's one of those touchy areas where it's like, sometimes that's true. Sometimes this world just sucks, right? Or biology or whatever- Toni Puhle: Sometimes life just sucks. Andrew McGregor: ... and so there are lots of ways to look at that. So if you're listening to this and that doesn't feel helpful to you, just [crosstalk 00:15:08]- Toni Puhle: No, this is true. Andrew McGregor: ... It's a particular kind of relationship to that for sure, in the same way that shamanic sickness or near-death experience for some people and in certain situations can really open up to a similar kind of thing or other kinds of experiences. It doesn't mean that everything is that way. But yeah, for sure. Toni Puhle: No. And like I said before, I think we have to accept that we don't know everything. Andrew McGregor: For sure, right? Toni Puhle: Whatever we talk about, we can talk about until the cows come home, but at the end of the day we can't prove it. Andrew McGregor: No, for sure. Well, the proof is in the practice, I think, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Is it helpful, is it getting me somewhere, is it helping me move forward? Am I making real change or sustaining the life that I have that I want? I mean I think that to me those are the, the longer I journey on a path with divination and magic and other things, those become the real measures of what seems helpful or important. Toni Puhle: That's very true, and for one person it'll be different to another person's journey. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. For sure. So how did you find Hoʻoponopono living in Germany, or maybe you found it while you were in the UK? Did you visit Hawaii, did someone bring it to you, how did it show up in your [crosstalk 00:16:35]- Toni Puhle: No, like most things in life, it turned up on my doorstep. I think the paths or the routes that we go down just happen to either turn up or you've made a cosmic order for a certain path to go on, and they show up at your door. And honestly, when I first started reading about it, I used it as a coping mechanism at the time. And it was shortly after I had my first boy, Lloyd, and I think it was more of a getting through the day coping method, and I didn't truly understand it as a lifestyle until recently. Andrew McGregor: ... Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: So it was, like everything, it showed up. Andrew McGregor: Well, and I think that spiritual paths are often like that, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: They take us where we need to go, not necessarily [crosstalk 00:17:51]- Toni Puhle: Whether we want to or not. Andrew McGregor: ... whether we expect it or not, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Like even when we grow up around stuff, I think it's always difficult to truly understand what's going on in someone else's experience, and so as we become a practitioner or a leader or teacher or whatever, it all starts to change and grow and we grow through that too, right? Toni Puhle: The reason I like Hoʻoponopono for that is because you aren't projecting your ideas on anybody else. The taking responsibility yourself means that you look at the person who's sat opposite you and you aren't seeing them through your own experience, you are seeing them through a, I'll use void again, through a void experience where there are no expectations or no preconceived ideas. And you don't actually need to understand their journey, but you can still play a part in it. Andrew McGregor: I think that's actually a really interesting point, too. I find when I'm reading for people, there's a sort of idea that people put towards me that I understand everything about them, or even everything that I'm saying, right? And sometimes, there are times where I have a deep level of understanding about it, and then there are times where a peculiar phrase that I wouldn't normally use comes out, or I use a metaphor that I don't remember ever using before. And there's something in that process that emerges that makes a ton of sense to them, but to me I'm kind of like, if someone asks I'm like "I don't know, I just said it. I was just doing the work and letting the work come through me," right? Toni Puhle: I presume also that you forget those reads very quickly afterwards as well, because you've probably passed on the message that needed to be passed on, and it didn't have to become a part of you. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. I forget a lot of readings. Toni Puhle: I do too. Andrew McGregor: It's too hard to hold onto them, it's like, I'm just going to just be super loose about this and let it go, and then- Toni Puhle: I think that's the only way when you do regular readings. Andrew McGregor: ... Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. Okay. So on one side we got the void, and on the other side we've got time, space, and prediction. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Right? What's the relationship? For you. Or if you want to share some math or something. Toni Puhle: I have a super dodgy relationship with predictions and fortune-telling, et cetera, because while I do have this side of void and spiritualism, et cetera, I have this side where I use systems, and I actually use systems for a reason. And I probably haven't shared this many places, but I use systems so I don't have to channel. When I channel, I don't ... I can do it all day long if I want to, but I have built up barriers through the years to stop the channeling happening, because I am more comfortable passing on a predictive read and a fortune-telling read when it's clear in the cards. Toni Puhle: I think this is this duality within me that I need proof, and the physics side of Toni, and then the void side of me that is letting loose and letting everything happen. So I have this two sides of my relationship with cards and spirit that at times I struggle with, personally, but that's because my physic hat comes on one day and I think "Oh my goodness, how can I tell them that that's going to happen when the only proof I have is a system in front of me?" But I do it anyway, because that's part of being a fortune-teller and part of being a predictive reader. And when I get emails back saying how wonderful and it's amazing that you will predict, because I think a lot of readers these days don't want to predict, they want to use it as a psychological tool or some kind of tool for making people feel better, which is awesome of that's the root or aura person that you are. Toni Puhle: I'm not that person, I want to know what's going to happen next week when I go to the shop down the corner. I'm quite simple, a quite simple person. I want to know if I'm, for example, moving house this year. I want to know where my journey is going and I want the building blocks along the way. I want to see exactly what's happening. So I do the predictive side of it, and I do have my void side of it where I will channel and I will bring in messages, but I prefer the systems because it's in black and white in front of you, and that's probably the proof that I require for my physics hat person. I require the proof of the system in front of me. Andrew McGregor: I think that looking for evidence or corroboration in what you're doing is one of the most important parts of doing divination. When I'm reading cards for people, I'm pointing at the cards and I'm saying "Look here, you can see it yourself. Look at what this person's doing. This is you, this is this." When Carrie and I teach mediumship through charm casting, right? We're looking for that corroboration. It's like, well, okay, you want to speak to your grandmother, it's like, "Oh, here's the gardening tool, me and my gran used to spend all our time out back puttering with the flower pots." It's like, okay, now we've got some corroboration, right? Now we've got some evidence. Toni Puhle: Exactly that. Andrew McGregor: And I think that channeling and open receiving messages is great too, and there can be evidence in that process as well. Toni Puhle: There can be. Andrew McGregor: Depending on who you're working with and how that's coming, but yeah, where there's no evidence, where there's no relationship. Something lovely might be going on there, but I don't actually know and understand what that is, and therefore I'm skeptical. Toni Puhle: Exactly. I do teach, I can't say I don't do it. I teach automatic writing, I teach all the qualities of becoming a great medium, or some people want to call a great psychic, for the predictive reads. But I think it's super important for that corroboration, but I also think it's important to have a process that you go down for that. So that yes, I do have information coming in, but I make sure that information is coming in when I'm in void. I'm very much controlling my environment and myself so that I have the physics me who is in human existence and controlling it, but then the other side, when I am in void. So I am controlling when I am entering void, and I can do a very practical and physics-minded predictive read using systems, because it's all there in front of you. Andrew McGregor: So when you're channeling, right, what are you channeling? Nothing? The void? Something else? Toni Puhle: No, no, sorry. The void that I am in is my free space for messages and for spirit, for ancestors, for any form of fae, garden people, any elementals is probably the better word, or other species. So the void is creating the place for me to do that, it's creating a null zero in me. It's basically my spirit, but not using the words. Andrew McGregor: Right. Toni Puhle: It's my free spirit and my free place for people, or people is probably the wrong word, for spirit to come in and give me the information that I need. Andrew McGregor: Sure. Entities, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Although some people get nervous with that word, I think it's the best word, to be honest. Because it implies an autonomy that some other words that people choose sometimes get rid of, right? Toni Puhle: I think the problem with me is that I'm always looking for the right word. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: And maybe I like void, it's a word that makes sense to me. It doesn't necessarily make sense to anybody else, but it's a word that I've given it that actually makes sense in my existence. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yeah. I mean I think that it makes total sense, right? I think of it this way. When I'm going to work or channel for people, I center myself in a really sort of deep, compassionate place ... Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And I open up myself to what wants to come through, right? And people always like "Well how do you read the cards?" Or "How do you do whatever?" I'm like "Well, it's psychic, it's ancestors, it's my guide, it's psychology." Toni Puhle: It happens. Andrew McGregor: It's my 30-odd years of study, it's blah blah blah, and it's like, I don't seek to control anything around that. I just sort of point it towards the process, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah, it's more like- Andrew McGregor: And then what needs to emerge emerges. Toni Puhle: ... preparing the place, yeah. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, and it's not about deciding ahead of time, at least for me, well, this is going to be where we're going to be really strictly this way, because I only read one system of cards. All I work with is Marseilles cards, so I don't do anything else with people in general. But one of the things that I love about that deck is that for me, it also is, to steal your word, a void space, right? To me the beauty of the Marseilles is that it will accept all of those things and feed into all of those processes in a way that personally I find other decks harder to hold that energy, because they're more deliberately specific. Toni Puhle: Yeah, and I think we, you said a really nice thing, that we're holing a space for that. And I explain it sometimes like, when we're born we come in with no expectations, no preconceived ideas, and it's like returning to that state. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: And that's when the information is incoming or the reader incoming or whatever word you want to put it, the entities are incoming. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. So we had a lovely heap of questions that kind of came in on Facebook, and if you listen to the podcast and you don't follow me on Facebook, you might want to, because it gives people the opportunity to pose questions that I look over and try and bring some of them anyway to the thing, to the podcast and to the guest. So a some of the questions seem centered around ideas of measuring or discerning or categorizing different things. Somebody was asking about the ghosts or the spirits in their house, somebody was asking about how do we measure their own energy, and other things along those lines. And so I guess what I want to sort of try and summarize that question as a starting point is, how do you discern the qualities of the energy or the entities that are around you? Or when you're working? Toni Puhle: The first thing I do is return to void for me, and return to nothingness so I can sense what's around. So the inside me or the spirit of me can actually feel, I guess feel's the wrong word, there aren't words big enough for that. But when it comes to spirit, there are so many different feelings that come attached to them for me personally, and I explain it like personalities. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Toni Puhle: So you will have people in your life who just rub you up the wrong way, and sometimes a spirit will come in and they'll do exactly that, they will rub you up the wrong way. Then fae, for example, they come in and it's more of a buzzing mosquito type energy that you are dealing with, and the way I discern what's around or even the energy within the environment that I'm in, I bring myself back down, as you say, your centering, but I bring myself down where I can feel what level that energy is at. Toni Puhle: And once I discern what level it's at, whether it's a high vibration or a lower vibration ... I work with pendulums, obviously, the word vibration, obviously I work with vibrational healing as well. And so an entity will come in for me with a vibration, and it is that vibration that I then, I detect it, but then I also assimilate to it, so that my energy can then accept the energy that's incoming or can accept them in order to receive a message or in order to understand why. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). And do you categorize them, good and bad? Toni Puhle: I don't categorize them in good or bad, I think there's a fine line between good and bad, and I- Andrew McGregor: But if you're working with the fae, there's no line, there's just chaotic, right? Or whatever, right? Toni Puhle: That's exactly what I- Andrew McGregor: There's no morality, per se. Toni Puhle: ... That's exactly what I teach. And they really don't like me at times, they can be really onerous, the- Andrew McGregor: Sure. Toni Puhle: ... fae, to deal with, and they aren't really fond of me. But I- Andrew McGregor: When you were talking about sort of spirits, I think you said something like spirits in your garden or whatever, right? But the first thought that came to me was the idea, what's the message? "Get off my land." They're like "Why'd you build this crap here? Get out of here. Why isn't it wild?" Toni Puhle: ... I had a problem when I moved in this house at the beginning, because I stepped over some lines in the garden. And my youngest can actually see elementals, and he saw quite a few in the garden who weren't really pleased with our presence. Andrew McGregor: Right. Toni Puhle: But going back to good, bad, dark, light, it's all a different level or a different vibration, and I deal in vibrations rather than what's good or what's bad. If something has a vibration that I am uncomfortable with, it doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. I have had higher beings, I don't know what you want to call them, come in who actually, your instant reaction is "Oh my God, what on earth is this?" But it's a being that can help you on your path, not necessarily something who's there to do harm. Andrew McGregor: One of the things that I find myself more and more interested in when I'm talking to people around this kind of work these days is people are very focused on what is the message, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: Which is 100% understandable. But I'm actually always really curious about why this is going on. Especially if it's a more negative, for that person, experience, right? I'm like "Well, that's cool that this thing," or uncool or unpleasant or whatever it is, right, "That's interesting that there's this thing happening, and you're having an unpleasant experience with it," and certainly we can deal with that, there are plenty of ways to resolve that. Andrew McGregor: But what I'm most interested in, because I'm like, "Why is that happening? What's the mechanism that's causing that to occur?" Because these things, they're not random. It's very rare that a person strolls down the street and acquires a random thing, if people walk down the street and acquire a random thing, it's because of something in their energy that permits that or encourages that. Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: But they're also not necessarily destined in the way that people also talk about that, right? People are like "Well, it just had to be that this thing showed up at this time to make this happen." It's like maybe, possibly, but often there are other reasons at play. So I'm always really fascinated at sort of the mechanisms of why that happened, why has it happened now, what are the situations that brought this about? It's like your physics mind, right? It's my sleuth mind, I'm like "Okay" ... Toni Puhle: What I don't understand is why everybody thinks there's always a message, or why they always have to be sent to the light. There's instant reaction, "Oh, we need to get rid of them." And again, going back to my beliefs in quantum physics, the field theory, I really think it has something to do with fields, and the filed in which spirit are, the field in which we are, coexisting somehow. I obviously can't explain it until a good physicist pulls his finger out, but I did actually write into a podcast and ask one of these CERN physicists why or how we can explain this quantum entanglement and whether that could explain me doing something and then it having a ripple effect at your end, for example. They answered, but they don't know the answer. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Toni Puhle: So I want to know why. I'm like you, I don't necessarily need to hear a message. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. I think that this idea of messages and the universe constantly talking to us and so on, it is and it isn't, but I think that it's, why would it be different than all the input of ... I live in Toronto, I live in a very big, metropolitan center, right? There's a constant input of information, right? Toni Puhle: Yes, that's exactly it. Andrew McGregor: 99.99% of it is noise. Toni Puhle: That's exactly it. Andrew McGregor: Some days 100% of it is noise. Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: It's not for me- Toni Puhle: That's right. Andrew McGregor: ... I'm just around and it's happening. Toni Puhle: And that's where Hoʻopo comes back in again, because it is that white noise, that constant white noise. And whether it's white noise from spirits or white noise on the physical level of life, it is still white noise. And only when we are free of all that constant information can we actually hear what we need to hear. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). For sure, right? So a lot of the questions, the other thing here was this question, right, or this idea of intention in the questions. A lot of questions that sort of centered around how intentions impact readings, how does being clear about intention affect the process, so on and so on. How does, for you, right, so the void state is, sounds like a very neutral state, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: You're not actively generating anything, because you want to sort of be- Toni Puhle: Received. Andrew McGregor: ... be present, and/or receive, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative), true. Andrew McGregor: So what's the active component of that, what's the intention component around your practice or your life in that? Toni Puhle: I teach to nail down intention so far so as if you were a lawyer. Andrew McGregor: Uh-huh (affirmative). Toni Puhle: So I am a huge Judge Judy fan, and I will watch her just to see how she nails down people so they can't give a squiffy answer. But the reason I do that is not because of going against void or anything like that, it's because you can't go wrong. If you have asked a clear question, you can expect what kind of answer. So when you are learning to read cards, when you are learning to do anything, if you are clear in your intention, it's for you only, it's you that wants the answer. So you are doing it for yourself to make sure that there is not an inch of leverage in the cards and their interpretation so that you can be 100% sure that you've nailed that predictive read. Because if your intention is skewy in the first place, it's for your mind only. How can your mind be understanding an answer if it hasn't been clear on what it's asking? Andrew McGregor: So number one, go watch Judge Judy everybody, get yourself an education. Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly. Andrew McGregor: I love it. There are lots of things that are ... I learn from so many different places. And I remember way back in the sort of newsless days of the internet, I was on this Thelemic group and there was this person there who, I don't know, they had a PhD in something or other, and all they would do though was they would just read people's posts, and then explain the logical fallacy in their statement, right? Toni Puhle: Okay. Andrew McGregor: And I spent a long time reading a lot of posts from this person, and taking notes, literally, I'd be like "Oh, that's a neat one, what's that one? That's a neat one, what's that? Oh look, this is where I do that," until I started seeing them in the rest of my life, the logical fallacies. Because we think that we are, it's easy to feel clear, it's easy to think that we know what we're asking or how we're asking it, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: But it's so woodgy-woodgy in our brains, like it's not as crystal clear as we think at all. Toni Puhle: I also think, too, because I speak, well, three languages, I think when you are a language-speaker you understand the nuances in language a lot more than somebody who is just a pure English speaker. That does not bemean in any way, I just mean you understand that there aren't words that exactly incorporate the meaning of what you're trying to intend or come across with. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Toni Puhle: So what our intention is may not be clear to somebody who's sat next to us, which means, in turn, it may not be clear when we lay the cards. So if we learn how to formulate our language as if it were a legal document, then you are covering all the bases to make sure that you have clarity when it comes to the answer. Andrew McGregor: That makes a ton of sense to me. It reminds me of, there's an author called Milan Kundera, wrote a book called The Unbearable Lightness of Being, but they wrote other books, I can't remember the specific ones now. But a lot of their books sort of start with this thing, they're like "Well, if you spoke Czech, there's this word. And this word kind of means this." And then the whole story is an explanation of that, and when they circle back a the end of the book and be like "See? Blah. This word." Toni Puhle: Yeah. Well I've noticed it most in speaking German, obviously. They will speak English with a different nuance than I will speak German. There will be the same words when you look at them in the dictionary, but they mean different things, they feel different. So when you say one word in English and you say the translation in German, it will feel different, and that means the message is already on a different level. Andrew McGregor: No, for sure. Yeah, absolutely. So intention as clarity of question, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yes. Andrew McGregor: Intention as clarify of self around question. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And Judge Judy will teach us the way. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: I feel like we need to make some saint candles for Judge Judy now. "Please Judge Judy, give me the clarity to ask a solid question and get a solid answer." Toni Puhle: I watch her just so I can see how she nails them down. Andrew McGregor: For sure, right? And I think that that's such an interesting and helpful process. When I read for people, there's definitely these times where they ask this question and I'm like "So what I hear in your question is that you want me to tell you that everything's going to be okay." And then they're like "Well, maybe." I'm like "Well, that's 100% fair. Welcome to being human, we all have that. But also if we open the cards, I can't tell you what we're going to see." Toni Puhle: I think it's- Andrew McGregor: We're going to see what we see. Toni Puhle: ... similar to, I have a few pet hates. They're not really hates at all, but there are questions that I think a newbie who is reading shouldn't use at the beginning, because it harms their future predictive reads. For example, "Should I do something?" Andrew McGregor: Yes. Toni Puhle: Who is to say whether you should or you shouldn't? Who is spirit to decide what you should or shouldn't do? Andrew McGregor: Well, I have an idea about that. Toni Puhle: Go ahead. Andrew McGregor: So I actually love that question. Toni Puhle: Really? Andrew McGregor: Yes. Right? But, I love that question because of my religious practice. So as a priest in the Lucumi tradition, in Afro-Cuban lineage who has studied and practices divination within that system and so on, the idea of should we do this thing rests in the beliefs that we have some kind of destiny, that we're not here with an open-ended clean slate of everything that anything could be on target, but only certain parts of the buffet are actually in a real deep level of alignment with who we are and why we chose to incarnate at this time. Andrew McGregor: So for me, the should question, especially in the religious context, is one that makes a bunch of sense to me, because I feel like there are things that at certain decisions we should and shouldn't do if we want to stay in alignment with that actual purpose. Toni Puhle: But is that not in line with your own guide and already having the relationship and the knowledge of your guides, who they are, who your ancestors are, and this long learning process of understanding who they are and that they are working in your best interest, rather than somebody who's coming to the table and asking the "Should I?" question and not knowing who they are requesting that information from. Andrew McGregor: I mean I think it really depends on what the nature of the should is, or the nature of that question is. I was just talking about this with my elder recently, because we were talking about the context in which me making sure that I'm divining about stuff makes sense for me in the coming year, because of what came out in the reading. And it makes sense for me to think about all those things, it makes sense for me to be clear about them. It makes a ton of sense to not use the should question as a scapegoat or permission or abdication of control ... Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly that, mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: But it comes to a place where there are things that are beyond knowing, we butt up against that mystery, and does it make sense for me to make this change in my business in a certain direction? And I have a bunch of ideas- Toni Puhle: But you see, that's a slight nuance in question, asking whether it makes sense to do something rather than asking for the permission to do something. Andrew McGregor: ... I don't think of should ... I think that some people use should questions- Toni Puhle: Maybe it's a language thing again. Andrew McGregor: ... Well, I think some people use should questions as point of permission, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: "Should I break up with Betty?" Look, if you don't like Betty, break up with Betty. Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Just get over it. If you're already asking that question, there's something you need to figure out there and the cards don't need to tell you that. But I think that there are lots of questions that, "Should I do this thing?" We could phrase them in different ways, "Is this in alignment with my true self to do this?" So on, right? "Is this the time for this to happen?" But for me should, and by the time I get to a should question, it's only those things. It's only the level of question. Toni Puhle: Well that's perfect for me as long as you have that understanding already. I think it's coming to the table and asking permission to do something that I ... The only reason I see it as an issue in new readers is because they see it as a strict yes or no, "Yes you should," "No, you shouldn't." And there is, then, in the answer, it's often unclear, then, to a new reader, whether the cards are positive 100% yes or whether they are a nuance of yes, or whether they are a strict no. And I think the intention when they sit down to ask those questions when starting colors the read, then, afterwards with their own emotional projection or on ... It allows a looser read, or allows emotions to come in. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. I'm definitely with you. If you're going to ask a question like that, there's no space for ambiguity- Toni Puhle: No. Andrew McGregor: ... in the question, in the process. There's no space for open-endedness. It's like look, I'm going to do this or I'm not. Am I going to do it? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Does it make sense, yes or no? And that's where diligence and discipline ... Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: In the reading of the cards. Because for me it's like, if I'm going to ask a yes or no question, I'm only going to read the cards in a certain way. I might go do another spread if I want other information. Toni Puhle: That is it, exactly that. Andrew McGregor: But I'm like, that's it. Toni Puhle: And actually, in my book, I used the yes and no question, which uses the least cards in the deck, I did it as an advanced spread in the back of the book for the reason that they have to, or readers have to understand that there is a difference in the way that you're reading. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. And just to pull it full circle, maybe, I think that your capacity, anyone's capacity to be good at those kinds of questions rests on your ability to be clear about what you're asking and your ability to be centered in what you would call the void space. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Right, or what I would call [crosstalk 00:54:23] different- Toni Puhle: Yes to that. Andrew McGregor: ... because if you can do those two things, then you can rocket out with that stuff. Toni Puhle: 100%. Andrew McGregor: But if you can't do those things, then it's like, you're moving towards my metaphor of how Ouija boards work for people who don't have a lot of experience with spirits, right? It's like, pick the busiest town square that you got, go there, put on a blindfold, and then out loud ask for an answer to your question. Wait for somebody to tell you, and then wait a while and leave, never knowing who that was. Who was that person? Do they have something valuable to add? Toni Puhle: It's also similar to dowsing, because we all can influence the outcome of dowsing by our own experiences, and carrying that into the question. Andrew McGregor: Yep, yep. And our subconscious and shadow have direct control to our nervous system, so therefore it's pretty easy for unresolved stuff to make its way there too, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: So it's been great chatting with you today, but I think we're kind of hitting the point where we should start wrapping this up though, even though I think I could sit and chat with you all day. It's going to just sound like this "I agree with you. Yes, I agree with you." Toni Puhle: I agree. Andrew McGregor: "I agree with you." Toni Puhle: Definitely. Andrew McGregor: So people should definitely be following you and checking out where you're at and stuff. Where should they come? Where's the best place for people to find you on the internets? Toni Puhle: I'm all over social media as @TheCardGeek is my hashtag, and if you look for the World Divination Association, you will find me on most platforms. Andrew McGregor: Excellent. Well thank you so much for taking the time today, and for ... Yeah. Organizing your schedule. Toni Puhle: Thank you for having me. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, my pleasure.

Carrie Allen Tipton is a writer, editor, lecturer, and academic with a PhD in Musicology, MM in Piano Performance and BME in Music Education. She also served as the Director of the Lecture Series for the Bach Society Houston and too many prestigious academic accomplishments to mention. She is also the host of the Notes on Bach Podcast. A podcast that shares scholarly information about Bach to the general public. We talk about how she got the idea to start her podcast. What shows she was influenced by and her love of radio. Carrie also shares the smart way that she created a proposal for the Bach Society of Houston, so they could form a strategic partnership and sponsor the show from the start. Without financial constraints, she was able to put the time in to produce the quality show she wanted to make. They even helped with promotion and creating a professional logo. Show Notes [03:20] Carrie was doing work for the Bach Society in Houston. She discovered that people enjoyed learning about Bach from scholars, but they had no place to find the information on their own. [04:19] As a music scholar, Carrie knew that there was a whole world of information about Bach that these enthusiasts weren't being exposed to. [04:42] Carrie also discovered how the Ben Franklin's World podcast connects people with scholars that write about the colonial period. Carrie thought this was so cool, and she knew that no one in the music world was doing something like this. [05:17] She approached the Bach Society about sponsoring a podcast that would connect Bach fans with scholarly information. [06:01] She wanted a podcast about musicology. She also wanted the strength of an organization behind it. The Bach society provides funding, helps promote, and even generated a logo for the show. [08:34] Carrie has had a long standing relationship with radio. Radio allowed her to listen to classical music as a child. [09:41] She always loved the mission of public radio, and she had the voice for it. [10:20] When Carrie discovered podcasting, she thought it was people taking radio into their own hands. She knew that was something that she wanted to do. [10:42] She then thought it was worth writing a budget proposal for the Bach Society Houston. [10:57] Carrie writes a lot of articles for the general public about music, culture, history, religion, and the arts. She also does a lot of freelance editing and lecturing. [11:23] 80% of the work that Carrie does have a public facing component, so podcasting fit in beautifully with that. [13:01] Carrie releases episodes according to the academic calendar or artistic year from August to May. [15:01] Nonprofits are always looking for new ways to meet a new audience. A podcast was not a big stretch for the Back Society. [16:36] To educate a potential partner, give them a link to a similar show. For Carrie that was Ben Franklin's World. [17:23] Emphasize how your expertise could be showcased in a podcast and emphasize your background and show communication experience. [19:12] Carrie shares success defining moments like when the Oxford University Press tweeted out a link to her show. Some others have embedded her podcast on their websites. Seeing her numbers grow also represents success. [23:41] To prepare for her show, Carrie will read the book three months in advance. She has an elaborate note taking process. Most of the books on the show are argument driven. She scrutinizes the argument and the evidence. After spending two or three weeks reading the book, she puts it away. She then pulls out her notes and hashes out an interview outline. She gives the guest the outline two weeks before the show. She also asks for feedback. [26:23] She needs to improve technology preparation with the guests. [30:35] Make sure the guest has USB headphones and a quiet room. Don't overwhelm them. [31:41] Carrie uses Trello for keeping organized with her podcast. [35:19] Carrie learned that ideas and thinking are important from her parents. Her dad said that it's good to be a thinker. [36:15] Carrie reads self-help, mysteries, and everything in between. She's currently reading Virgil Wander. [37:42] Her radio songs are late 90s country. [38:47] She likes Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast and the BBC's In Our Time. [40:31] Takeaways from Darrell: She partnered with Bach Society Houston from day one. Carrie was intentional about finding that partner. She presented a strategic vision. Show how you are a content expert, show communication background, and share similar examples.

When Carrie first started writing, she wrote contemporary teen fiction and she heard a lot of comments about being quirky. She’d hear comments like “Could that really happen?” And a lot of times, she’d answer, “Um. It already has.” One time, I had a story with a wedding expo that featured cannabis. Everyone said, “You need to cut that. That would never happen.” Last week in Canada? It did. It was called the Canadian Canabis Wedding Expo. In this world, things you don’t expect to happen tend to happen. And in your stories, it’s good to do that, too. Don’t be afraid to be bizarre. Don’t be afraid to have your character be the clerk in Petco who is there when a Watusi walks in. On a leash of course. When you’re afraid to be weird, bizarre, or even just afraid to be yourself your writing suffers and becomes bland and boring. Take chances. Stand out. Be different. WRITING TIP OF THE POD Take chances. Stand your ground. Write weird. Life is weird. It’s okay to reflect that because when you do? You and your story stand out. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Weird is not an insult. Weird means you’re not boring, that you’re unexpected. Weird is good. Also, weird can make you go viral. SHOUT OUT! The music we’ve clipped and shortened in this podcast is awesome and is made available through the Creative Commons License. Here’s a link to that and the artist’s website. Who is this artist and what is this song? It’s “Night Owl” by Broke For Free. WRITING AND OTHER NEWS IN THE WOODS – READ AN EXCERPT, PREORDER NOW! My next book, IN THE WOODS, appears in July with Steve Wedel. It’s scary and one of Publisher’s Weekly’s Buzz Books for Summer 2019. There’s an excerpt of it there and everything! But even cooler (for me) they’ve deemed it buzz worthy! Buzz worthy seems like an awesome thing to be deemed! You can preorder this bad boy, which might make it have a sequel. The sequel would be amazing. Believe me, I know. It features caves and monsters and love. Because doesn’t every story? HEAR MY BOOK BABY (AND MORE) ON PATREON On February first, I launched my Patreon site where I’m reading chapters (in order) of a never-published teen fantasy novel, releasing deleted scenes and art from some of my more popular books. And so much more. Come hang out with me! Get cool things! WHAT IS PATREON? A lot of you might be new to Patreon and not get how it works. That’s totally cool. New things can be scary, but there’s a cool primer HERE that explains how it works. The short of it is this: You give Patreon your paypal or credit card # and they charge you whatever you level you choose at the end of each month. That money supports me sharing my writing and art and podcasts and weirdness with you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/carriejonesbooks/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/carriejonesbooks/support
When Carrie first dated her husband Eric, she became an avid student of his character. She wanted to know everything about him to determine whether he would be safe to entrust with her heart and future children. In the same way, she has studied the character of Jesus, learning about his desire to protect and provide for us, his compassion and empathy towards humanity, and his great power. All of these convinced her that he was truly trustworthy. In her book, "The Compelling Heart of Christ" Carrie uses her lens of understanding the loving character of Jesus to better understand some significant stories in the Bible. Today, she shares about how these characters have parallels in her own life and how this study of Jesus has deepened her trust in him.

If you want to move beyond time-for-money in your side hustle, this is the episode for you! Carrie has been around in the WordPress and web design community for many years – I’d even seen her name around well before I decided to start freelancing – I’d be working on a website at my day job and run into a snag, start googling and her blog would come up quite often. Her name is Carrie Dils, and I came across her again when I booked a new web design client with a pretty challenging project. I was researching how to do something, came across Carrie’s website again and saw that she had a way to just book a paid consultation call by the minute – which we’ll talk about later in this episode. So I booked a call, got some advice and then invited Carrie on the podcast to talk about how she monetized her WordPress knowledge beyond one on one client work. In today’s episode, Carrie and I dig deep into: The tipping point where Carrie took the leap from day job to full time side hustle. Creating multiple streams of revenue outside of 1:1 client work as a web designer. How to do content marketing as a web designer. How to easily sell your expertise – in any subject – by the minute. How Carrie dealt with imposter syndrome when she was first starting out The #1 skill to have as a web designer. Why you shouldn’t try to do everything yourself in your web design business. Why Carrie shifted from writing Genesis and WordPress tutorials for freelancers to teaching them how to be a successful freelancer. Carrie’s #1 piece of advice for a new web designer. Carrie’s advice on pricing. The belief Carrie had to change about herself to get where she is today. Just a quick heads up – you’ll hear some background noise in this interview – Carrie had to duck into a coffee shop to do the interview, which is totally cool with me! So let’s dive in to my interview with WordPress Expert and Fearless Freelancer Carrie Dils. So if you’re a web designer or you’re thinking about freelancing, head on over to peptalksforsidehustlers.com/freelance and that’ll send you over to my blog post all about how I got my first web design client, and you can get your hands on a freebie – my 7 Step Website Consultation Checklist and script that will walk you through how to do a consultation call with a potential client.

Twenty five, tall, beautiful, and married, Natasha brings out Carrie's worst insecurities. When Carrie bumps into Natasha in the dressing room of a clothing boutique, Carrie wonders: Are there women in New York City who live for the sole purpose of making other women feel bad about themselves? To relieve some stress, Samantha takes the girls out for a day at the spa. Charlotte however, can't seem to let go of her body image issues and get naked in the steam room. Samantha gets a tip that Kevin, one of the massage therapists, performs sexual favors, but when he doesn't deliver, Samantha makes her own move and grabs his crotch. The spa bans Samantha, but she gets Kevin fired. Charlotte returns to the spa and nervously bares it all; she's validated when another woman compliments her breasts.

When I launched the Women Want to Hear Women podcast with Nash Country Daily on June 15, I had no idea how far this campaign would come in less than three months. After nine amazing episodes, I'm excited to tell you that we now have a platform on the Westwood One Podcast Network—and our first episode on the network features none other than Carrie Underwood, one of the most popular and powerful artists in country music. Carrie has always championed women. She is one of the people who inspired me to create this podcast to share women’s stories. When Carrie agreed to be my first guest for the national launch on Westwood One, I couldn’t wait for her to share her experiences, outlook and insight. Carrie did NOT disappoint. She was incredibly open and passionate about the "Women Want to Hear Women" message. We covered a lot of ground in this interview, from the lack of opportunities for females on country radio and how to handle haters on social media to women being pitted against each other and how to be the BOSS. I encourage you to listen to every word, because what Carrie has to say is important. Let’s keep this conversation going. Enjoy! Podcast Participants: Carrie Underwood Elaina Smith, host of WWTHW Videos: Carrie talks about her Cry Pretty Tour 360 that will launch in May 2019 with Maddie & Tae and Runaway June.

Trading Stocks Made Easy with Tyrone Jackson: Investing in Stocks | Investing Money
Christopher Haro was born and raised in Los Angeles. His father worked at Boeing for over 48 years. He, himself, wanted to start working young to earn extra cash for playing video games down at the arcade. So he washed dishes and did whatever he could at his Uncle’s restaurant and he started his own little business mowing the lawns in his neighborhood. Now, Mr. Haro is an accountant, a CPA, by trade. He had tried the stock market before the dot.com era by purchasing some options of AOL. It was a couple months before the market imploded and he lost all his money. He swore he would never invest in the stock market again. At the time he also owned real estate. He owned a rental property and his own house. His goal was to have 20 rental properties. It is expensive to buy real estate in Los Angeles so Chris started doing his research on out of state properties. He bought property in places like Idaho and North Carolina. He figured that having five $100,000 properties would be less risky than one $500,000 property in LA where he would be at a huge loss if that one tenant didn’t pay on time. Chris doesn't remember who turned him on to Covered Call Writing, but it was hard to believe that the money was that easy. He had started making the trades on his own but didn't have the discipline and the patience for it. As an accountant, he would simply see a loss when the stock went down instead of looking at the net positive. Now with his education from the Wealthy Investor he can see the opportunities in his trades no matter what the market does. The best trade he made in his first year of trading was with Nike. He had bought 400 shares and kept selling covered calls. Wash, rinse, repeat. When the shares were finally bought away from him he had made $2,000 just making the same trade over and over again. Chris says that you don’t have to be good at math, it’s just coming in and doing it and learning the system and being consistent. The hardest part is the emotion and dealing with it when the market drops. Coming to class, he learns what to do when the market changes and how to benefit from it. This shifted his thought process. Carrie Keranen is a successful working actress in the Los Angeles area. She grew up in Oak Park, Michigan, studied international business and Japanese at the University of Michigan, backpacked around Europe after college and then bought a one-way ticket to New York City. Despite her studies, Carrie couldn’t keep away from acting. Her career starts with voice over work, then flowed into theater, and eventually television and film. Carrie moved to Los Angeles after checking off the list of the things she wanted to accomplish in New York. When you are a working actor you have paychecks coming in from many different jobs and it forces you to have a more intimate relationship with your finances. You have to track your payments and keep your W-2’s and 1099’s organized. Sometimes you are up and sometimes you are down so you have to learn to live in the middle. When Carrie found herself in an up period she realized the worst thing she could do was just live off it and watch it go away. There had to be a way to make that money work for her to give her some semblance of control. She finally followed a friend into the Wealthy Investor Program with Tyrone Jackson. When she first began, Carrie was terrified. But by the end of her first Wealthy Investor class, Carrie felt she understood the basic concepts. This gave her the feeling that she could eventually figure this out. After Carrie’s first trade, she did not have that “good” feeling. She realized that this meant she needed to check in with her negative feelings about money flowing towards her. In a way, she says that her entire first year has been about the internal journey. Now, Carrie loves covered calls because they reduce risk. You can guarantee you will have a return on your money every month. The hardest thing for Carrie to wrap her head around was that she could really take the money she was making trading! What has been amazing for her, is actually understanding the concepts well enough to decide for herself whether to trade an In the Money or an Out of the Money covered call. Although, she feels Out of the Money calls are sexier than the safe “grandma” In the Money calls. Carrie doesn’t consider herself a business person. It makes sense for her to trade companies that she understands, such as Disney (DIS) and Visa (V). Plus, having the community there for her to discuss the concepts as she is learning them is extremely helpful. She also thinks it is important to see what’s possible. Seeing where other people started and where they are now opens up her own realm of possibilities. Now, almost a year after her first class, Carrie achieved her goal of paying her rent with money from the stock market. During Carrie’s first class she was very tense and nervous. But then she said to herself, “Yes or no? This is either something you want to learn or it’s not something you want to learn. And if it’s something you want to learn - Learn it NOW.” Carrie realized early on, “This program is not about ‘I’m going to be a millionaire next week.’ This is about how to have continuous, sustainable, predictable wealth every month, out of every year, for the rest of my life and it’s starts where I’m at right now and grows from here. And if I just keep pushing that line back next year, or next year, or next year, then it just means that I’m getting that started next year, or next year, or next year.’ Her advice to you is “Just take the next step. Don’t worry about everything and the whole big picture, just take the next step. Take it day by day. Just do what you can right now. You don’t think it’s going to make a different but it is going to make such a difference. You can’t even conceive of the ways that this is going to open up your mind, your heart, your spirit, your understanding, when you are on the fear side of it. The moment you take that first step, all those doors are going to start to open and it’s such a beautiful thing. Please, please, please do this for yourself. Randy Hernandez is a successful model and actor who met Tyrone Jackson at an audition for an HBO Television series. He eventually signed up for Tyrone’s class, but began very slowly in the stock market. Randy says he opened his TD Ameritrade account and had money sitting in it for three months before he ever pulled the trigger on a trade. But opening that account was half the battle. Randy and Tyrone discuss how there is definitely a fear of failure, a fear of unknowing or not being financially educated that stops many of us from taking the leap. Anyone can make money in the stock market; you just have to have the mindset to see how it works. After making that first trade and seeing the money grow in his account, Randy made six figures in his first year of trading. Randy explains that the “millionaire mindset” isn’t really about having a million dollars in your account. It’s a feeling of freedom that you can have yourself, your family, and your lifestyle. You can have the power to eliminate stress and make money on your own terms. But you have to think of trading as part of your income, part of your daily lifestyle. If you treat it like that you will be responsible about it, not get greedy, and do the necessary research. One thing that helped Randy get past his fear was Tyrone’s format. He says that Tyrone teaches you in a way that is very safe—he always goes back to the basics no matter what is happening in the market.

Trading Stocks Made Easy with Tyrone Jackson: Investing in Stocks | Investing Money
Tyrone talks stocks with students Christopher Haro, Carrie Keranen, and Randy Hernandez. Christopher Haro was born and raised in Los Angeles. His father worked at Boeing for over 48 years. He, himself, wanted to start working young to earn extra cash for playing video games down at the arcade. So he washed dishes and did whatever he could at his Uncle’s restaurant and he started his own little business mowing the lawns in his neighborhood. Now, Mr. Haro is an accountant, a CPA, by trade. He had tried the stock market before the dot.com era by purchasing some options of AOL. It was a couple months before the market imploded and he lost all his money. He swore he would never invest in the stock market again. At the time he also owned real estate. He owned a rental property and his own house. His goal was to have 20 rental properties. It is expensive to buy real estate in Los Angeles so Chris started doing his research on out of state properties. He bought property in places like Idaho and North Carolina. He figured that having five $100,000 properties would be less risky than one $500,000 property in LA where he would be at a huge loss if that one tenant didn’t pay on time. Chris doesn't remember who turned him on to Covered Call Writing, but it was hard to believe that the money was that easy. He had started making the trades on his own but didn't have the discipline and the patience for it. As an accountant, he would simply see a loss when the stock went down instead of looking at the net positive. Now with his education from the Wealthy Investor he can see the opportunities in his trades no matter what the market does. The best trade he made in his first year of trading was with Nike. He had bought 400 shares and kept selling covered calls. Wash, rinse, repeat. When the shares were finally bought away from him he had made $2,000 just making the same trade over and over again. Chris says that you don’t have to be good at math, it’s just coming in and doing it and learning the system and being consistent. The hardest part is the emotion and dealing with it when the market drops. Coming to class, he learns what to do when the market changes and how to benefit from it. This shifted his thought process.

When Carrie came out in 1976 Stephen King was an unknown author, but after the success of Brian DePalma's film the author was put in the spotlight. His older books became paperback bestsellers, and his new books topped the charts in hardcover. So expectations were high in 1979 when 'Salem's Lot, the second adaptation of King's work, hit screens. But rather than being in movie theaters, King's 1976 vampire novel was produced as a television mini-series. With horror master Tobe Hooper directing could this small-screen film live up to the quality of big-screen King horror? Listen to find out!
