Iron City Paranormal is BACK with part 2, the evidence review!
A few tips for listening to this episode:
when the evidence audio plays, turn up your volume, close your eyes (if you can! be responsible!), and listen beyond the initial wooshing or background sounds you might hear. Use the backwards arrow on your phone to turn back the time on the podcast and listen to the audio more than once. Especially the first one, and the last one at Gettysburg!

Today Emmy tells us ghost stories! I loved this chat with Emmy so much. We talk about ghosts, Emmy tells stories and it really gets you in the spooky season spirit!
Emmy C-G is a Witch and a trauma-informed Tarot & Akashic Records Guide. She’s a writer who adores making others feel simultaneously comforted and confronted. She is also a Death & Creativity Doula.
Emmy's values are self-expression, intuition, and curiosity. She lives to support creatives, misfits, and the morbidly inclined who crave being seen, integrating their shadows, and welcoming transformation.
Whether she’s podcasting, writing, or working through snags in a magickal or mundane way (or both for MAXIMUM spice), the end result is the same: Emmy is here to be unabashedly herself and to help others be the most authentic version of themselves.

Toda I chat with Eisley Hallows! We chat about the fuzzy border between science and magic, how our subconscious mind works, shadow work, and working with a pendulum for shadow work! I loved chatting with Eisley about the power of our mind and how we can integrate the shadow.
Eisley Hallows (she/they) is a hypnotist, shadow worker, and witchcraft mentor for intuitive solo magical practitioners. She works with weirdos: queer folks, autistic folks, artists, creatives, anarchists, and nerds especially love her style. Eisley’s approach exists on the fuzzy border between science and magic. It’s parts-oriented, grounded in practical neuroscience… and they’re also known to pull out their divination tools or offer spellwork in client sessions.

This week I welcome on Tyler Brass. We have a great conversation and cover a lot of different topics in this episode but one of the main threads we weave through this conversation is the importance of the pause. Pausing for our intuition to flow to that we can hear ourselves more clearly.

Tyler has been facilitating professional astrology readings for over 4 years. His new show, Future Forecast: Weekly Astrology with Tyler Brass can be found on Apple, Spotify, or iHeart Radio. Recently, Tyler’s natural sensitivity to energy has evolved into psychic senses and a budding mediumship journey. Tyler’s professional readings include birth charts, future forecasts, solar returns, compatibility charts, predictive charts(or what’s known as “The Best Time” reading), and his own form of locational astrology, which he features on his podcast, ASTRO TRAVELING. His intuitive offerings include psychic sessions, aura readings, manifestation coaching and reiki healing. Tyler believes we are all filled with a unique purpose, and it just takes an open heart to light the way.

If you want to hear me talk about why, this episode is for you! I talk about how hormonal birth control, anxiety medication, depression medications do not interfere with your ability to connect with spirit and how new age purity culture has made some people believe the opposite.
