  • How does a plumber become an energy healer?

    When I first met Steve Pulvermacher, his unpretentiousness and impish humor immediately struck me, along with his profound generosity with his gifts and learnings.

    Listen to Steve’s extraordinary story of how his world and belief systems got turned upside down when his youngest daughter developed severe asthma. After years of treatment with little relief, he thought, “There’s got to be a better way.” His exploration of alternative approaches launched him down a path that not only relieved his daughter’s condition, it landed him a new vocation. Now a minister, energy healer, and Reiki-certified practitioner who has trained in dowsing, acupuncture, emotion code, body code, and radionics, Steve uses muscle testing (a form of dowsing) to identify and release trapped emotions, which can cause imbalances in the body and spirit.

    Our conversation takes a fascinating turn when Steve discusses negative entities and “dark energies” he’s encountered in his work, and how he resolved them. The key, he says, is to stay in the present moment, focus on positive thoughts, and be “NEO,” a non-emotional observer, to avoid getting caught up in negativity. (Not unlike Neo in The Matrix, learning how to tell the difference between what is real and what is not…!) It starts with paying attention to the words we use, and becoming aware of our subconscious programming. Steve encourages practicing love and gratitude as a daily affirmation for a more joyful and fulfilling life.

    So, with love and gratitude, I introduce you to Steve Pulvermacher. Enjoy!

  • Lee Barnes, dowsing intuition educator, seed saver and longtime water well dowser, is a true custodian of the Earth.

    He explains that dowsing is not just about divining water but accessing a system of knowledge through our intuition. For him, tools such as L or bent rods and pendulums are ways to access this system, and they can eventually give way to feeling the answers in the body. After years of practice, he feels the answer even before his tool shows him. Barnes shares his process for locating wells, and the day-to-day realities of being a professional water well dowser.

    Above all, Lee stresses the importance of asking the right questions—and trusting the first answer that comes. He’s learned over his decades of experience not to question the answers that come.

    Lee also highlights the power of language and the need for clear and positive communication. Between that and trusting your intuition, he counsels, “Life gets a lot smoother.”

    Barnes touches on remote viewing, the ability to make changes at a distance through energy work, and his work with sacred sites. As down-to-earth as he is reverent, Lee emphasizes the importance of permission and respect when dowsing, or otherwise working with the earth and our dowsing intuition.

    Lee encourages people to learn and practice dowsing, as it allows for a deeper connection with the natural world and can lead to more harmonious and sustainable living.

  • Leroy Bull takes us into the hush… that place of deep interconnection with Father Sky and Mother Earth, that state of being where his answers as an intuitive and seasoned dowser emerge. Because the answers come not from without, but from deep within, from that profound connection, or “at-one-ment” that Bull describes.

    Simply being in Leroy’s energy field during this episode was like a master class on grounded, connected presence. (And coming from someone who teaches grounded presence… that’s saying something!)

    With 68 years of experience, he’s dowsed thousands of objects, from 3,000+ water wells on four continents to time capsules in Japan. Author of The Art and Craft of Map Dowsing, Leroy is an engaging storyteller, situating us in history, and dowsing's use in the military, as well as his personal history: being handed a forked stick by his grandfather, and feeling that first pull of water.

    Bull emphasizes the importance of being open, trusting the universe, and tuning into the frequencies around us, “in the hush,” as he calls it. He shares stories of his powerful guides along the way. His experiences with dowsing and remote viewing are as much spiritual journey as they are scientific practice.

    His experiences with dowsing and remote viewing are as much spiritual journey as they are scientific practice. Dowsing is more state of being than specific methodology—and the answers we seek are just a hush away.

  • Ho’oponopono is a traditional Hawaiian practice for conflict resolution, reconciliation and peace. Deeply connected to Hawaiian culture and traditions, it emphasizes the importance of aligning with one's higher power to find peace. Briefly, the prayer that we’re familiar with (which, as I learned from this week’s guest, is just a small part of the ho’oponopono process) is: “I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you.”Deceptively simple. Incredibly powerful. The ho’oponopono prayer is, in fact, a completely different view of forgiveness or conflict resolution than we typically hold. As my guest, Native Hawaiian and ho’oponopono teacher Pihanalani Kililikane Kamaunu explains, “Forgiveness doesn’t have anything to do with the other person,” or the person you’re “forgiving.” “It’s about getting right with ourselves,” she says. Put another way, when we hold onto a hurt or grudge or non-forgiveness of someone, “it’s like taking poison and expecting the other person to suffer,” Pihanalani explains. It is all about energy: releasing what no longer serves us and making room for what could be better. We explore the practice of Ho'oponopono and its connection to ancestral healing and cultural restoration. We touch on the significance of compassion, empathy, and the power of Aloha in addressing historical injustices and moving forward with trust and faith.And honestly… the protocol is NOT easy. Like most spiritual practices, if you don’t mean it, it isn’t effective. You have to do the work. Of self-reflection, of letting go. Of truly meaning the words. Of seeing more than one side to a situation, taking responsibility for our part and, above all, finding compassion, for ourselves and others. Of putting our peace and well-being above being right.And that can feel like a bitter pill to swallow… that is, until you taste the freedom on the other side.But don’t take my word for it… Watch our candid, sometimes vulnerable conversation, and decide what is pono for you.

  • Worried you’re not living your purpose? Relax. It will find you.

    Worried that you’re not living in your purpose… or living up to it? Don’t know what your purpose is? You are not alone! Take a deep breath and tune in for an antidote to all this angst and anxiety.

    I start by debunking a few myths:

    Myth: You have one and only one life purpose.

    Myth: Whatever it is, it’s gotta be big.

    Myth: You need to know the “end game,” the ultimate result of your purpose on earth. (Yeesh, just writing this is stressful!)

    There’s nothing worse than believing that we’re not doing what we’re “supposed” to do, are on the planet to do, were created to do… We have expectations and assumptions galore around our purpose here on earth.

    And the truth is… it is so much simpler, and there is so much more mystery than we often care to allow for. This week, I invite you to embrace the mystery, let yourself off the hook, and relax. Because whether you like it or not, your purpose will find you!

    (Spoiler alert: you are already living some of your purpose(s)...!)

    And finally, I leave you with tools and journal prompts to help you identify your purposes… because your soul leaves you breadcrumbs: clues to why you’re here, and what you’re designed to do when you know where to look.

  • Sandi Isgro, now president of the American Society of Dowsers (ASD), first held dowsing L rods in her hands when she fatefully stumbled into a labyrinth workshop.

    “When the rods magically moved in my hands, I was hooked! I have been dowsing ever since,” she says. Two of Isgro’s core passions ignited: dowsing and labyrinths. Wait until you hear how her guides made absolutely certain that she learn not one or the other but both, inextricably intertwined…!

    Sandi shares the purpose and benefits of walking or tracing a labyrinth, including the calming effect it has on the conscious, or “monkey mind.” She explains how dowsing is used to find ley lines and set labyrinths—and how tracing a labyrinth on paper provides many of the same benefits as walking one.

    We also delve into the history of dowsing, the origins of the American Society of Dowsing and the persecution of wisdom keepers who possessed this ancient knowledge. We touch on how the Oracle Delphi used dowsing to receive information from ley lines—and what disrupted that flow of energy, ultimately diminishing the oracle’s power and accuracy. Sandi also shares her journey with ASD and the importance of teaching and promoting dowsing, especially in these rapidly changing times. We explore the connection between runes and labyrinths, and highlight how runes amplify vibratory frequencies in a labyrinth setting.

    Dowsing is a powerful tool for self-empowerment, self-healing, and finding one's own truth. Combining dowsing’s clarity with the calming and centering effect of labyrinths may just be the medicine you’ve been looking for.

  • I have a heart-to-heart with you about the importance of having a protection practice in navigating the energies of the world—anytime, but especially now.

    You'll learn a visualization practice taught to me by my BFF Rosanne, based on four elements, 'Red Earth, Teal Water, Ring of Fire, Globe of Light,' that I unpack and teach as a means of setting a personal energetic grid for safety and protection.

    Love, not fear, is what propels this protection prayer. You’ll hear about my journey and how I came to learn to trust my intuition and build up the practices that took me from hopelessness and fear to sovereignty and freedom. And this protection prayer is one of them. Wouldn't you want to have it in your back pocket?

    Takeaways

    Having a protection practice is essential for navigating the energies of the world.

    The visualization I share is a powerful tool for setting an energetic grid of safety and protection.

    Love and intention are key in creating a protective energetic signature.

  • Buckle up, buttercup! We jump straight into the deep end of the pool in this fascinating conversation with 4-time author, Akashic record expert, and my dear friend, Lisa Barnett. Our conversation ranges all over as she talks about her latest book, AKASHA, the Akashic records and what they can tell us about our multiple life purposes, including sacred travel, soul contracts, and big collective contracts that many of us have incarnated for this time around: Earth guardian- and protectorship (Standing Rock, anyone??), balancing divine feminine and masculine energies on the planet, and delivering “keys” or “codes” wherever we’re called to go in service to co-creating the New Earth.

    Oh, we go there, and get galactic, people! Lisa talks about her origins on Sirius, an early lifetime as a whale when she pledged her devotion to Gaia, and sheds light on why embodiment and groundedness is more important than ever. One of my favorite moments: when she talks about our sacred contract with our bodies...! Yum!

    If you are new to Akashic records and the soul’s path, in a nutshell, the Akashic records are like a “library” or “cloud drive” that holds every detail from every lifetime you’ve ever lived, here and elsewhere in the Uni/mulitiverse. Lisa makes this esoteric knowledge accessible like no one I know - check out her links below to learn anything you’ve ever wanted to know about Akashic records and more.

  • Dr. Michelle Peal unapologetically bridges angelic realms and earthly medicine, unlike anyone I’ve ever seen. Bring an open mind and heart; this conversation may shift your understanding of Earth, the body, and the changing energy of our collective transformation. Key takeaways:

    - Illness is a power issue, and restoring the body's power can lead to healing.

    - Scalar energy operates in resonance, not frequency, and is the divine energy of the universe.

    - Dowsing is a valuable tool for accessing information and making decisions based on resonance.

    - Radionics is an analog technology that broadcasts scalar energy and can be used for healing and balancing the body.

    - Animals and plants are naturally tapped into scalar energy and can serve as examples of resonance and harmony.

    - Trusting God and letting go of fear is essential for maintaining a free flow of divine energy in the body.

    - Preparing the body to receive scalar energy is crucial for experiencing rejuvenation and renewal.

    - In the face of challenges, choosing love and trust over fear is the key.Dr. Michelle Peal

  • How do you tap your intuition and connect with the wisdom of the planet? Introducing a practice as old as people, with a name you may or may not have heard of: Dowsing.

    What is dowsing? I share how I rediscovered this ancient technology and how it has become my go-to for checking my energy and aiding in decisions. I also introduce an exciting new collab with the American Society of Dowsers that is connecting me with a world of experts across so many fields, who I’m excited to bring to you! There are so many different applications for dowsing, from finding water, working with energy lines, and communicating with nature.

    I teach a technique I learned from Dr. Michelle Peal, who you'll meet on the next episode: how to use a pendulum to check your alignment with your heart before making important decisions, especially when you’re feeling conflicted or on the fence.

    I close with a gratitude practice that’s particularly helpful when you’re feeling anything but! Connecting with the heart and practicing gratitude and trust are critical for aligning with your intuition. Your truth is in your heart—and the language your heart speaks is love, gratitude and trust.

    If you've ever wondered, what is dowsing? You're in the right place!

  • How to manifest your most cherished desires

    Interviewing Ron Matthews, martial arts master, engineer, physicist, and mystic is like getting an immersive history and downloading a resource library to accompany your spiritual path! Ron acknowledges the many teachers, techniques, and lessons he’s synthesized in his method to manifest our most cherished desires: the Science of Miracles. He combines the “best of the best” with the energy medicine of his lived martial arts experience. A man after my own heart, he saw that the missing piece in so much of the theory was that it left out the body, the key to the whole puzzle. A learned and methodical expert, Ron was determined to create a system that anyone could learn, reproducible and consistent no matter who tried it. He is a timely and beautiful teacher for the skeptics and curious who don’t always jive with all the “airy-fairy woo-woo.” (That’s the technical term. ;) ) There are SO many wisdom nuggets:

    Healthy energy patterning and miraculous healings

    Our triune nature: conscious, subconscious, and our transcendent self

    The nature of our Transcendent Self, the incomprehensible love it has for us, and how to ask our High Self for help

    What successful manifestation requires

    The power of our words and emotions

    a handy tool for correcting when we say something we don’t intend

    the three words that can open up our capacity to always expand and receive.

    Episode page + transcript⁠ | ⁠YouTube⁠

    About my guest

    The consummate Renaissance man, Ron Matthews is a martial arts master who has practiced and taught since 1972. In his professional career, Ron was an engineer and physicist, working for MIT Draper Laboratories, Cisco Systems, and as technical lead for Raytheon’s electromagnetic environmental effects group.

    His intense interest in martial arts and, in particular, the development of the mysterious energy known as qi (pronounced chee) led him to apply this energy in some extraordinary ways in the areas of health, healing, and personal transformation.

    Ron shared a system with us that he has named, Master the Science of Miracles – a reliable and repeatable method for transmuting thoughts of your most cherished desires into physical reality. Ron has helped hundreds of people to transform their lives using his system.

  • How trauma imprints on the body and psyche is one of our biggest challenges and opportunities for growth in our earthly experience.

    My beautiful guest Kim Fuller presents a definition that is at once expansive and compassionate, inclusive of all our experiences, and really overturns this idea that trauma is something outside of us that “happens” to us… It is all about our perception, experience, and how we allow ourselves to move through it.

    We talk about the way ancestral trauma, especially for people who have inherited traumas from enslaved or colonized ancestors, shows up and impacts even today, in real tangible ways.

    Join us in a thoughtful discussion of trauma, past, present, as well as ancestral, how it shows up in the body, and KIm’s three-part approach to working with it to mine the gifts, joy and freedom on the other side.

    My takeaways? Everyone deserves a calm, joyful life—and that is 100% accessible by all.

  • Being in your body is more important than ever. So, here’s how to get out of your head and into your body with one simple tool… But first:

    What do I mean? How do you know if you’re “in your head?”

    I talk about my struggles with distraction, ungroundedness, procrastination, and more - all the myriad ways we avoid being present in the body, with whatever’s coming up (usually uncomfortable emotions, and sometimes as a result of trauma).

    Some tangible examples of what decisionmaking looks like out of the body versus in the body so you can recognize this in your own life. A world of difference! Our bodies - when we learn to listen and pay attention - never lie to us. They bring us messages from our emotional system and our soul - they are the gateway to both.

    So, what’s an easy way to get in the body, especially if you are in a disembodied or activated state? I offer a super simple, immediately applicable tool that has been in my toolbox for years and helped me move through difficult situations and emotions.

    Getting in the body allows us to let the healing happen and let the guidance flow through. Make better decisions. Live a more grounded, joyful life. And yes, co-create this new potential reality of heaven on earth. (This is why we’re here, people! This is why so many of us have incarnated right here, right now). So let’s dive deep and get to it, my friend!

  • When an animal or creature crosses your path not once, not twice, but four times in a single day—the last showing up to interrupt AS I recorded this episode…! It’s time to stop and tune in to the message. The insistence of these lovely arachnids had me researching their significance and inspired a spontaneous, intuitive riff on what they wanted to say to you and me. Consider this an oracle reading… of the eight-legged variety.

    Spider medicine brings forward themes of creativity, patience, balance, and the feminine. What does the spider show up to teach us about these aspects? I offer my interpretation in a message that encourages us to loosen our grip, and allow the creative process to unfold—letting go of expectations of what its impact or result might be, or what we think it will look like.

    In other words, what happens when we create, then let our creation work its magic without pushing the process? Anyone who has felt impatient with the pace of organic growth of a social media following, blog or book readership—or podcast audience!—will benefit from today’s spider medicine.

  • “Your timing is perfect and elegant.” Words I first heard Regena Thomashauer say—but she was not the first to teach me this lesson. The lesson that it is never too late, that your timing is always perfect, I got because of the grace of a brilliant woman who passed through my life like a comet, Trudy Morse. I had no idea at the time who she was, but was most important was the legacy she left behind, changing my consciousness and path because of her amazing stories, generously shared over a scant few days that we spent together. A truly extraordinary woman, learn how a late-in-life decision changed the trajectory of Trudy’s life forever—and how her stories changed the trajectory of mine.

    It is never too late. Never too late to start something new, change careers, discover a new passion, plunge into a relationship, or start all over again. Your timing is perfect and elegant. “It’s too late” is a story we tell ourselves when we are afraid to do what we’re being called to do. So, with that limiting belief out of the way… Now, what do you want to do?

    About Sun Ra and his Arkestra | And an interview with Trudy Morse about Sun Ra…! In this interview, which I just discovered in putting these show notes together, I actually learned more details about how they met. It wasn’t quite as spontaneous as I remembered in the telling, and I suspect it is my romanticized memory and not Trudy’s original telling that leads to any discrepancy.

    Trudy had had a longtime interest in Sun Ra’s music, first hearing it in 1968, although didn’t meet him until 1990 or so. She was friends with Cecil Taylor, the jazz pianist; Cecil’s agent also represented Sun Ra; when she expressed an interest in meeting Sun Ra, the agent made the arrangements. (And that’s how she got backstage to talk to him…)

    The rest is true - she read poetry, hers as well as Sun Ra’s, as well as Cecil’s, and ended up performing with Sun Ra, and later honoring his memory through performances where she gathered local musicians to perform in the same spontaneous way that Sun Ra and his Arkestra did. (They would rehearse for hours… and then play totally different music in performance. And somehow, everyone and everything would fall into place.)

  • In this solo episode, I delve into a topic close to my heart: the liberation of our bodies through the simple act of allowing our hips to move as we walk. I know… Crazy, right? By challenging the shame and restrictions society has imposed on our natural movements, particularly for women, and embracing the natural sway of our hips, we tap into our inner wisdom, intuition, and true authenticity.

    Don’t believe me? I dare you to try it. Holding our hips immobile takes a tremendous amount of energy. What could you accomplish if you released that bound energy and reclaimed it?

    When we let go of these constraints, we enter a space of creation and abundance. I invite you to join me in a simple practice to sway your walk and explore the unique and beautiful movements of your own hips. By freeing our hips, we unlock presence, confidence, and magnetic power. Oh yes, we can release shame, reconnect with our bodies, and show up as more and more of our authentic selves. Let’s take a walk together.

  • Inspired by the summer solstice, this episode aims to “bottle” the longest day of the year’s potent energy so we can access it any time of the year for inspiration, confidence, and courage. Not only is the solstice an opportunity to connect with our powerful sun and solar energy, plugging our bodies into its warm, bright energy, it’s also a time to honor our ancestors, who would never let this day pass by unnoticed.

    Get ready to embrace the warm, radiant energy of the sun, as I guide you through a simple yet powerful channeled practice to move the sun’s rays through the energy centers of the body and integrate the sun’s intelligence into our cellular matrix. Unleash your courage, clarity, and creativity as you shine your unique light in the world.

  • This episode is dedicated to entrepreneurs and owners building conscious businesses based on healing, energy, and spirituality. (Note: you don’t have to be a medium or psychic, although those all qualify - I’m talking more about how you approach your business, as a means for fulfilling your life’s purpose, and as a personal activator for change.) I discuss the shift from ancient times, when spiritual leaders were identified and trained from birth, to the present, when entrepreneurs have the opportunity to create their own structures.

    Episode Highlights:

    Once Upon a Time: How the community supported us in the past, and how we can replicate that in the present.

    Creating the New Temple (and Why Now)..: Entrepreneurs can replicate the sustenance, care, and support once provided by traditional temples. The barriers to entry are lower, and vibes higher. Can you say, divine timing?

    Growth and Healing in Business: Entrepreneurship serves as a path of rapid personal growth and development, akin to the experiences once found in ancient temples.

    Freedom and Expansion in Business: There are no limits to what can be created and achieved within a business.

    The Interplay of History and Future: Exploring the interwoven nature of our spiritual and business journeys can lead to profound insights and growth.

    I think business is the new mystery school for spiritual entrepreneurs, providing the opportunity to create their own support systems and community structures. What do you think?

    Joan Grant, whom I mention in the episode, wrote a series of books back in the 1940s that she called “far memory” stories - basically, her recollections of past lifetimes. In one such book, I don’t remember which, she mentions that she valued her freedom of expression over her survival, and as a result, was burned alive at the stake, as she put it: “an exceedingly unpleasant way to die”...! If you’re interested in past lives, I highly recommend her books as a way of sparking your own “far” memories.

    In that vein, I also recommend Journey of a Red Soul by Marie Dion, the pen name of my dear friend Rosanne Romiglio-Ashley, whom I will be interviewing in a future episode. Her recollection of past Native lifetimes was profoundly healing for me, as well as helped awaken memories of some of my past timelines.
