  • Welcome back to the second part of my interview with Carissa Schumacher. This is a continuation from our second chat we had here on Hold the Light within The Freedom Transmissions book study series. If you haven’t yet listened to the first part of our conversation, click here. We cover a lot of interesting topics there including how to be in communication and partnership with the Divine, and how to deal with needs verses wants.

    In this episode we talk about whether or not she feels the pressure to live up to — or to match — the wisdom of Yeshua in her every day life; whether or not she considered publishing The Freedom Transmissions without the name Yeshua attached to it; what the aftermath has been like since she published the book; and we discuss two specific transmissions that Carissa felt compelled to highlight and talk about right now.

    Here, we continue my conversation with Carissa Schumacher.

  • For this episode and the next, we’re taking just a short book study break from The Freedom Transmissions to feature my new conversation with Carissa Schumacher. As you most likely know by now, Carissa is a forensic psychic medium, a spiritual guide, and she is a channel for Yeshua. The book The Freedom Transmissions are channeled transmissions she received from Yeshua.

    You can go into this podcast’s archives to listen to the other interviews I’ve had with Carissa, with the most recent ones published this past September 2024. I link to everything below.

    Recently, Carissa and I came together again to address some questions and concepts around The Freedom Transmissions. In this episode, we talk about the phenomenon of how when we go back to re-read the book, pages, passages, or paragraphs can feel completely new, as if we’ve never read it; we discuss how we can sometimes feel as if we are going backwards in our spiritual evolution when re-reading the book— and Carissa addresses what it is that we’re experiencing. We talk about the new era we’re entering; how The Freedom Transmissions is not a self-help, do-it-this-way kind of book; she shares how we can communicate with, and be in partnership with the Divine; we talk about why Yeshua has a British accent when Carissa channels Him; and we talk about needs versus wants, and how we can we walk a spiritual path while still wanting things?

    This is a good one, so let’s get to my latest conversation with Carissa Schumacher.

  • The Thread and Stitching of the Dreaming, Part 1 from Transmission 1: The Weaving of Spirit upon the Web of Life found in Part Two: The Freedom Transmissions, Pages ✨ 81-96

    In this chapter of The Freedom Transmissions, we discuss the thread and stitching, we take a look at “love-nots” and how to unstitch from these distortions and illusions, and also how to weave ourselves deeper to our light and authenticity. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    _____________________

    Starting now we move into Part Two of The Freedom Transmissions – our focus in on the offerings that are called The Freedom Transmissions. (Part One was called The Sacred Heart Transmissions.)

    If it’s helpful, think of threading and stitching as vibrations and waves. We each have our own vibration that is unique to us – this is our energy. And since everyone and everything is energy or frequency, we are all connected to each other and to a vast, invisible field of energy. The Web of Life.

    The question being asked here in this chapter is: what and whose frequency are you on? What are you stitched to, and what do you want to unstitch from? This can be people, things, places, ideas … basically any of the seven imbalances we’ve already discussed.

    As we move along our spiritual path in this lifetime, burying our head in the sand becomes unsustainable. So we must look at the imbalances and distortions that keep us in density so that we can begin to unstitch from them and begin to weave back into our natural essence.

    When we unstitch, we restore the clear vision of who we are. And who are we? We’re light, we’re love, we’re divine.

    So, let’s think about this tapestry, this Web of Life, that we weave with. It’s not just what we see before us, our quote “reality.” It extends into the unseen… into the universe. It’s everything, everywhere, all at once.

    At the heart of it all is Love. The teachings share that “when it is said that you are Love, it is not just your soul or body–the entire stitching and threading of the vibration that you are is OF the fabric of Love.”

    So, we are stitched in love and to love. But guess what? We are also stitched in “love-nots” – these love-nots are things like our ancestor story and personal karma. As you can imagine, being stitched to these love-nots are what results in the imbalances and distortions.

    In today’s episode we’ll take a look at the definition of threading and stitching according to The Freedom Transmissions, we will look at the Web of Life and how we are all interconnected, we’ll discuss how to unstitch from our imbalances and distortions, we’ll look at why practicing present moment awareness is so important for our spiritual lives, and finally how we can raise our vibration in order to connect with our true essence and nature.

  • The Chambers of the Sacred Heart from Part One: The Sacred Heart Transmissions Pages ✨ 67 - 76

    In this chapter of The Freedom Transmissions, we discuss The Chambers of the Sacred Heart — what Sacred Heart is, what the chambers are, and the energies that infuse the Sacred Heart. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    _____________________

    In this episode, we move into learning about the Sacred Heart. This is the final chapter under The Sacred Heart Transmissions, which is Part 1 of the book The Freedom Transmissions.

    Here’s why it’s helpful for us to understand the Sacred Heart: because this is the gateway that connects us to our divine self.

    The Sacred Heart is the foundation and structure for embodying greater peace in our lives.

    It’s where we find freedom.

    So, what is the Sacred Heart?

    The Sacred Heart, as it says in the book, is “the Center, your center, united with the Center of Gaia, of the sun, of the universe, and of God. It is the intersection of the dreaming and dreamer, creation and creator, subconscious and conscious, seen and unseen.”

    It is where the horizontal meets the vertical.

    Within the Sacred Heart, there are the four chambers, or energies, that complete it. These are:

    * Simplicity

    * Stability

    * Surrender

    * Stillness

    So, think of the Sacred Heart as a medicine wheel where these four energies intersect at the center point. At this intersection is where we find Freedom. When we embody the four energies, we are in balance and peace.

    As the teachings tell us, “This space exists within you at all times, but you must choose to find and illuminate it.” And when we do, we’ll connect with the Divine.

    This space and these energies exist within us at all time – basically we were created from these energies, so we always carry them with us. We don’t need to go looking for this outside of ourselves – it’s within us.

    Unfortunately, these energies are not so highly valued in our world. Our complex, noisy, controlling world, where entitlement, ownership, image, arrogance, and expectations take up a lot of space. It’s a demanding world that dulls our discernment and intuition. A world addicted to chaos, anxiety, and substances.

    When we don’t take time away from all of this, it can make us feel like we are spiraling out of control.

    Luckily, there’s a solution: it’s prioritizing these energies of simplicity, stability, surrender, and stillness. This can help us restore our Peace. It can help us to experience more joy and connection, independent of our external reality.

    In this episode, we’ll take a closer look at — and ask some questions around — the four chambers/energies of the Sacred Heart.

    ___________________________

    WHAT TO FOCUS ON THIS WEEK

  • The Three Veils and Seven Imbalances of the Mind, Part 2 from Part One: The Sacred Heart Transmissions ✨ ✨ Pages 60-66

    In this chapter of The Freedom Transmissions, we discuss The Three Veils, and how they relate to the Seven Imbalances of the Mind. We’ll look each Veil and what we can do to lift them. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    _____________________

    In this episode, we are discussing the Three Veils from the chapter The Three Veils and Seven Imbalances of the Mind in The Freedom Transmissions. In the last episode we reviewed all seven imbalances, so be sure to listen to that first if you haven’t yet.

    This next part of the chapter is important to understand because it gives us deeper knowledge about the root or origin of the Seven Imbalances of the Mind. And with deeper insight about how the imbalances developed, we gain deeper insight on how to restore them to Balance.

    The Three Veils represent separation. They are what created the distorted lenses of perception, otherwise known as The Seven Imbalances of the Mind.

    As it says in the book, “The thicker the Veils, the deeper of the Seven Imbalances.”

    For those in deep unconsciousness, the Veils can be thick; for others who are blending and integrating their light and shadow into balance, the Veils can be nearly transparent.

    Click play to learn about the Three Veils, what each one represents, and what we can do to begin to lift them.

    Thanks all. Keep holding the light.

  • The Three Veils and Seven Imbalances of the Mind, Part 1 from Part One: The Sacred Heart Transmissions ✨ Pages 34-60

    In this chapter of The Freedom Transmissions, we learn about the seven imbalances of the mind — how they show up in ourselves and in our lives, how they hold us back, and how we can create freedom and peace around them. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    _____________________

    I’ve decided to break up this chapter from The Freedom Transmissions into two different episodes because of the depth of the content. It’s a chapter that’s really important for us to take some time with, because it helps us to know ourselves and how we’re currently keeping ourselves in density. Essentially, we’re looking at what holds us back from living in our true essence — our true nature — and peace. Before we move forward with the other transmissions in this book, we need to start here. The good news is that this chapter also offers ways to move from that density into greater freedom.

    What are the imbalances? They’re areas in our lives where, essentially, we “miss the mark” in embodying our divinity. They are errors in perception. It’s where we miss the mark in embracing love over fear.

    And so, today we are going through each of the Seven Imbalances of the Mind; how they express themselves, how we can transcend them.

    As taught in The Freedom Transmissions, “The Seven Imbalances are the ego’s distortions in perceptions, actions, projections, and behaviors. They are what contribute to and create the illusion self, the ‘supposed to’ self, the ‘story of self’ that causes you to see yourself through a lens of distortions, which you then project onto others and the world.”

    These imbalances are specifically found on pages 34-60. In the next episode, we’ll focus on the other part of this chapter, The Three Veils.

    Thanks for listening. Keep holding the light.

    __________________________

    WHAT TO FOCUS ON THIS WEEK

    📿 Meditate on this: If you feel stuck or don’t know where to begin, take some time alone this week, light a candle, get silent, tune into your breath, and simply ask the Divine to help you perceive a specific situation differently. This is where surrender comes into play. When left to our own devices, our egos will have us responding from a place of fear. So, ask for help.

    📖Read or re-read in The Three Veils and Seven Imbalances of the Mind ➡️ Pages 60-66 ➡️ Here we are focusing specifically on the Three Veils.

    🎧In the audiobook, listen to The Three Veils and Seven Imbalances of the Mind, in the “continued” or the second part of the audio chapter, from the 27:00 minute mark of the until the end of the chapter. Again, the focus is on the Three Veils.

  • I AM Yeshua from Part One: The Sacred Heart Transmissions ✨ Pages 23 - 33

    In this chapter of The Freedom Transmissions, we learn about Yeshua — who he is and how he is there to work with us as we move thorough the transmissions. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    _____________________

    I like to think of this chapter as a meet and greet with Yeshua. He introduces himself to us, and then also shares a bit about to expect as we move through The Freedom Transmissions.

    So, who IS Yeshua?

    Well, as He explains, He is Peace, He is your peace, the Essence of your Be-ing.

    When we choose peace, we choose our true selves.

    So here, Yeshua is telling us that through the process of going through these transmissions and meditations and prayers found, we’ll be making more room for our true selves.

    And here’s how: through a dismantling of the illusion self and “all of the imbalances, complexity, and stress that the ‘supposed to’ self creates” for us.

    So by connecting with His wisdom and clarity, we’re going to learn how to leap deeper into our own peace, balance, faith, forgiveness, and freedom.

    Here’s something that’s important to know: Yeshua says that you don’t even have to believe in Him or have Faith in Him, or understand Him to receive His Grace.

    He still works through you no matter what you believe in.

    And here’s why: it’s because, as Yeshua says, you are not separate from Him. You are Him and He is you.

    This is the co-creation part. This is the we-are-never-alone part. This is the I-am-one-with-the-Divine part. In this chapter, this is what Yeshua is expressing to us.

    He’s here to assist each of us in “feeling and living the essence of Peace every day more.”

    By finding yourself here, reading The Freedom Transmissions at this point in time, it’s a shared moment with Yeshua — or as He says,“This is OUR moment.” There is no division or separation. You are heeding a call that requires courage, because guess what: If you’re finding yourself here, according to Yeshua, you are part of the pioneers ushering in an Era of Balance, Transparency, and Peace. It can’t come to us until we come to it. This is what He wants us to know.

    Keep listening as we dig further into this chapter.

    Thanks for listening. Keep holding the light.

  • The Freedom Transmissions Series, Ep. 1 ✨ Introduction, Pages 1-20

    This is an introduction to the book The Freedom Transmissions, sharing what to expect as we move forward through this new book study series on Hold the Light podcast. Here I am reflecting upon the book from my own lens. I share only my own thoughts, learnings, and ideas.

    ___________________________

    Let me ask you a question: if I were to tell you there’s a pathway that could potentially, possibly, most likely help you move into a feeling of greater peace, balance, simplicity, freedom, forgiveness, authenticity and wholeness in your life, what would you say?

    This pathway helps us to know ourselves as connected to something greater than ourselves, whether you call that something greater the Divine, Spirit, Infinite Intelligence, God, or well, fill in the blank.

    It’s a pathway that helps us to deeply know that we are not alone… and that we are not separate from the Divine — the Divine is within us, not outside of ourselves.

    This pathway is called The Freedom Transmissions.

    Welcome to my new series here on Hold the Light where I will be discussing the book The Freedom Transmissions. Each upcoming episode in this series will be devoted to moving through the book chapter by chapter. If you’ve found yourself here, maybe through curiosity or through a pull to this work — or maybe by accident — you’re most likely interested in your own spiritual growth, transformation, and evolution of your consciousness.

    So, welcome. You’re meant to be here. This is the Introduction.

    Press PLAY and let’s get started.

  • Welcome back to Part 2 of my first conversation with Carissa Schumacher in The Freedom Transmissions series. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet, pause this and go take a listen to it — and then come back and join us.

    In this conversation we talk about how Carissa views The Freedom Transmissions more as a meditation, she shares some of the transformations she’s seen in people since reading it, and she also offers some practical tips on how to work with the book. You don’t want to miss that part specifically.

    We pick back up from Part 1 talking about The Freedom Transmissions and the phenomenon on how when we read the book, new passages, paragraphs, or lines can hit us in a new way. Sometimes we may not even remember reading it! But how is this possible?

  • Well nothing could delight me more than to kick off The Freedom Transmissions series on Hold the Light in conversation with Carissa Schumacher.

    Carissa is a renowned forensic psychic medium, intuitive, sacred ceremony facilitator, and full-body channel for Yeshua, otherwise known as Christ Consciousness. If you’re curious to hear more about her as a channel, I’m publishing a bonus episode to subscribers on my Substack where she shares about the experience of what it’s like to be a channel for Yeshua. That episode is linked the show notes.

    It’s through Carissa that we have The Freedom Transmissions ➡️ she channeled these transmissions from Yeshua. And so I wanted to talk with her to hear her thoughts and perspective on the book, what it means to her, and what she hopes people will take with them after reading.

    In this conversation, Carissa shares things she hasn’t shared before. We get a behind the scenes look at the birth of the book and you’ll hear some of the first wisdom Yeshua shared with Carissa. Also of note: I recorded our conversation on August 21st, 2024 — and as you listen you’ll see why this date is interesting. I had no idea until Carissa told me. It’s pretty wild.

    So, welcome to Part 1 of my sit down with Carissa Schumacher. Next week we’ll continue the conversation in Part 2 where she’ll share ideas on how people can connect with The Freedom Transmissions, we talk about the transformations she’s witnessed in others after they’ve read the book, and she also shares some basic tips on how to make the most out of The Freedom Transmissions. She’ll also pop in a couple more times throughout this series to connect and to go deeper on some of the chapters.

  • Here on Hold the Light podcast, I’m introducing something new.

    For a while, I will be using this space in the style of a book study or book review. My first focus will be on the book The Freedom Transmissions.

    In addition to occasional interviews here on the podcast, I’ll be dropping new episodes where I’ll share my reflections on the wisdom and offerings of the The Freedom Transmissions, chapter by chapter.

    Even if you’ve read the book, I believe there is always something new to uncover. It’s an ongoing opportunity for us to each transform and evolve, as well as deepen our connection to something greater than ourselves.

    So, if you’re interested in creating more peace, simplicity, balance, forgiveness, and freedom in your life, this series is for you. This is where we can dedicate time to our personal and spiritual growth.

    There are no experts or gurus here. We’re all beginners, moving deeper into our authenticity, originality, and peace. It’s my joy to curate this space.

    So get yourself a copy of The Freedom Transmissions — and ideally the audiobook as well — and join me on Saturday, September 14 as I kick off the series in conversation with Carissa Schumacher, who channeled these transmissions.

  • If you believe in spirit guides, are curious about spirit guides, or even wonder what it’s like to connect with loved ones who have crossed over, this episode is for you.

    I’m in a community of women where every week we talk about things that are somehow related to the spiritual or personal growth space. No topic or idea is off limits or judged, from energy healers to forensic mediums to equine therapists, we love sharing information about what we’ve discovered, tried, or have heard about. When one friend mentioned that they had a reading with a psychic medium that blew her mind, of course we all wanted details. This psychic medium is my guest today, Kathy Taylor.

    Kathy is a fourth-generation medium and has trained under Psychic Medium Lisa Williams with her International School of Spiritual Development and is certified as a Psychic Medium. To date, Kathy has done approximately 4,000 private readings, working with clients internationally.

    At the top of this year when we heard that she was reading for a live audience, I flew to New Jersey to see Kathy in person with my dear soul sister Jenn. We were both blown away by what we had witnessed. After the event was over, I knew that I wanted to talk with Kathy here on Hold the Light. As you’ll hear, this is where we start the conversation.

    We also talk about how she connects with people and spirit guides on the other side; she share one of the first lessons she learned about being a psychic medium; and she talks about our teams of Spirit guides – what and who they are made up of, and how we can each discover the main players on our personal teams.

  • Bex Urban is a healer and guide in the world of yoga, pilates, meditation, and Reiki. Her approach focuses on bringing awareness to our breath as the essential link between mind, body, and movement. She emphasizes finding our center, balancing the body from the inside out, and using physical practice to forge a larger spiritual connection. Her positive energy inspires everyone she works with to show up, release, and build strength.


    I met Bex at a spiritual retreat where she led a beautiful breathwork exercise which encouraged us all to get grounded and connected. I appreciate the work she does in the world – and so that is why I wanted to talk with her here on Hold the Light.


    In our conversation, we talk about the act of retreating, and how we can retreat in our every day, including things we can do to help shape our day. We don't necessarily have go somewhere to retreat. We can do it in our own way at home.


    She shares wisdom on ways to help guide others, we talk about meditation and taking a sacred pause, and what she suggests people can do on a daily basis to bring greater levels of peace into their lives.


    If you’re wanting to add some new tools to your spiritual toolbox, this conversation is for you!

  • On the show today is Orly Altaras, a psychic medium who lives in Los Angeles. We met in an online community and I can’t really remember all the details of our meeting, but it was one of those things where we somehow connected online, we chatted, we did an Instagram Live together, and that was so fun that we hosted an in-person New Moon Circle, and have just been champions of each other since.


    As a psychic medium, Orly offers 1:1 sessions with people helping them to connect with loved ones on the other side; she does small group readings; she leads classes on how to tap into your intuition; and also is the owner of Lara & Lou, an online shop that provides goods and services for your spirit and home.


    Orly has such a beautiful spirit – you’ll hear that in this conversation. She shares some tips on how we can strengthen our intuition and shares some beautiful stories around tuning into the signs and synchronicities that are all around us.

  • Who’s ready to talk wishes? I imagine you have some for yourself, whether it’s at the forefront of your mind, or buried deep somewhere within.


    The topic of wishes is something that my guest today, Alexa Fischer, thinks about a lot.


    Alexa, who is a teacher, entrepreneur, and author of the book Wishwork, is the creator of Wishbeads, which is intention-setting, wish-granting jewelry. Basically, you wear your wishes! Her company has a mission, as she says: to inspire millions of people to make exciting wishes, take action, and put in the work to make those wishes come true.


    Alexa is a joy to talk to. She brings such clarity and inspiration for leading a soul-led life. I think you’ll love this conversation.


    Also, she walks through a breathing exercise and visualization towards the end of this episode, so you’ll want to listen all the way through so that you can reap the benefits of her teaching – and to connect to your own wish.

  • Have you ever had the experience of a sound bath? It’s truly magical.


    And that's how I met today’s guest, Alison Liepzig. Ali led a sound bath experience in my hometown of Los Angeles, which I was able to attend after hearing about Ali’s work from a friend. When it was over, I knew I wanted to talk with Ali here on Hold the Light.


    Ali has her hands in several spiritually-inspired spaces. She is the co-founder of Soul Camp Creative, which is a sacred strategy house committed to serving spiritual entrepreneurs. She’s also a spiritual teacher, retreat and camp leader, and a sound and vibrational healer.


    It’s her work with sound and vibration that we’re focusing on today.


    I’m excited for you to hear this conversation and learn more about the power of sound.

  • Today's guest is today’s guest: Rev. Liliana Barzola, renowned spiritual intuitive and founder and CEO of Lotus Lantern Healing Arts.


    She’s been a psychic intuitive since childhood and uses her gift to help people and organizations find clarity and directions – and has conducted over 20,000 in-person and phone intuitive sessions, and has taught over 600 students since 2002.


    As she says, “Oftentimes, ‘psychic sensitives’ are the most in need of healing and support.”

    And that she likes to think of herself as the healer’s healer.


    Among other things we talk about in this conversation, of course, we talk about energy: why it gets stuck in our bodies and how it manifests. I was curious: what does stuck energy look like? Liliana shares how to clear our energy, how to ground ourselves, and also how to tap into our intuition.

  • In this solo episode, I share my thoughts on the statement "Courage over comfort." It's been one of my guiding lights this past year, but I had an interesting encounter with someone who didn't like that phrase. I'm sharing my story here -- and I also ask, who are we to know what's best for others? How can we strengthen our internal guidance system so that we make choices in our life based on our inner knowing and intuition.


    As Esther and Jerry Hicks (of Abraham-Hicks) says:


    “Others cannot understand the vibrational content of your desires, and they cannot understand the vibrational content of who you are, so they are not in any way equipped to guide you. Even when they have the very best intentions and want your absolute well-being, they do not know. And even though many of them attempt to be unselfish, it is never possible for them to separate their desire for you from their own desire for themselves.”

  • If you’ve been listening to Hold the Light these past weeks, you know that I’ve been sharing pieces of my conversation with Carissa Schumacher.


    In case you haven’t heard those episodes yet, a quick introduction:


    Carissa, who is one of my spiritual teachers, is a Forensic Psychic Medium, an empathic intuitive, a Sacred Ceremony Facilitator and a full-body Channel for Yeshua, with whom she co-created the book The Freedom Transmissions.


    You may have ideas when you hear the name Yeshua, and I did too. So, I wanted to hear from Carissa who Yeshua is to her. What is her definition?


    What she describes was so helpful to me – and I know to others who heard the full conversation – because there is such clarity – and beauty – in her answer.

  • If you’ve been listening to my podcast, you know that I recently spoke with Carissa Schumacher. Carissa is a Forensic Psychic Medium, an empathic intuitive, a Sacred Ceremony Facilitator and a full-body Channel for Yeshua, or Christ Consciousness. She’s also one of my spiritual teachers.


    When we spoke in our original conversation, Episode 23, one topic we discussed was how do we find peace and hope at this point in time? What can help us right now as we move into a new era and a new cycle on our planet?


    In case you haven’t heard that conversation yet, I want to share this excerpt with you because it feels important and necessary and expansive. As she says, "Be the moral, not the story."
